b, +. Mason, who owns the place
on Mayor. Meto where L. P. Stuckey
lives, is building one stretch of levee
% yards long and another 300 yards
long to keep the creek from running
across his land. This will not pre-
vent the backwater from getting on
it but that will be good for the land,
as it will replace the soil which has
washed off Mr.. Mason has owned
the place for years and this will do
much to increase its value. Bayou
Meto should have a deep, straight
channel dredged for it, and will have
sometime, as all creeks in Georgia
have already Then its bottom will
all be put in cultivation and be as
valuable as Arkansas bottoms. Mr..
Mason advertised in the Pulaskian
for a horse some time back and Sc
cured the horse indirectly from IN
formation received. A man told him
his horse was in an old field near
Cato. He went there after it, but It
was not there. When nc asked about
it though, a man told him it was not
in the old field but was on the other
side of Cato, where he found it. E.

dollar spent there will accomplish

A Home Nursery.

In July | visited N. M. shive's
nursery at Cabot and made arrange
ments with him to bud a few peach
trees for me. 1t was too late to get
any June buds, but I will have 800
dormant buds, think From these
he can bud next spring and obtain
bomtiful supply of Junebuds for
next years delivery. | may sell
few Of the dormant buds next year,
which will make trees then from
three to six feet high. The price will
be about two dollars each, for they
are from Nelson's peaches, which
have made the reputation of being
the finest peach grown and get ripe
the first of August, when there is no
other peach on the Little Rock mar
ket.
| spent the night at Mr.. Shiyes'
and examined his nursery again the
next morning He was very busy
planting his peach seed. He had
about sixty-eight BUSHES, which cost
him nearly five dollars a bushel.
They will make about 100000 seed
ling MIR. Shive is a nahral-born
nursery man and loves the business.
His soil is peculiarly adapted to the
growing OF trees and his stock IS sec
ond to none.
The, nursery is only about three
miles from the Pulaski county line,
and the people along the road like
the Pulaskian fully as well on the
Ionoke side as on The Pulaski side
Of the line.

r. E. Gordon was just putting the
finishing touches on his contract for
grading part Of the new highway
from jacksonville to Cabot. He In
formed me that he did not think the
road would be graveled before next
year which certainly will be tough
on jacksonville if we have a wet
winter, for nearly all of Jackson
Yille's trade comes in over this road.
That would have been fine for Mr..
Gordon but for the fact that his Gin
burned about two weeks ago. The
Barron school house has also burn
ed and is being rebuilt. He cannot
rebuild his gin in time for this years
business, but intends to have a much
better one for next year. While he
got about $500 insurance, he will
lose. much more than that on his
business this year and with the high
price of machinery it will cost him
about $4,000 to rebuild.

]. S. CLANCY had hanging on his
front porch stalk Of cotton with
the leaves and small limbs trimmed
off. 1t had IS large bolls on it. As
it was not night when | got there he
took me out into his field and showed
me his best cotton. 1t will make
two-thirds of a bale to the acre, be-
cause there is that much in grown
bolls on it now, but after this ma
lures there will hardly be another
boil in the whole field. The squire
was very much in hopes, as the
weather was turning colder, that it
would keep on until it froze, for it
would take just that to put the price
of cotton up to what it has cost the
farmers to produce it. Phil Blazer
and his brother, Joe, two Of the best
cotton men in the county, told me
that thirty cents a pound on tltir
cotton would not pay the accounts of
the farmers in Bayou Meto township
for making 1t. and that does not
take in their labor, nor that of their
families. nor the cash they have paid
out THE BOIL WEEVIL ARE
BAD. which makes it all the worse.
Mr. Chaney's cotton is on land that
was worn out before the war. After
he purchased it he managed to gel
hold of about fifteen head of cattle
and went TO fertilizing it. Last win
Ter he put all his barnyard manure
ON this piece and then put 350
pounds of high grade commercial
fertilizer on it. That made the cot
ton mature early He could not have
used over 200 pounds if he had moi
used SO much stable manure. This
talk of using 500 to 1000 pounds
of commercial fertilizer on the hill
lands of Pulaski county is liable tc
do harm because if the land has
not been previously highly fertilizee
with either barnyard manure or by
plowing under green crops, it viii
burn the crops up. The use of com
mercial fertilizers is to bring out tho
fertility already in the soil and no
to add more to it. Of course, som,
commercial fertilizers supply fertiI
ity, but lime and such only utilize,
the fertility already in the soil Fl,
could have used 500 pounds on hi,
but did not care to risk SO much
