other peas, the leaves all shed off when the peas get ripe and they are as good an eating pea as any. For enriching the soil they are twice as good as any other pea and 1 would advise other farmers to try them. Ii hey obtain the same results as he I should think every farmer would soon be planting them.
 He had often heard of the hog pea and down in Florida he ran across them growing and obtained q start of them, since he has been growing them. They are real pea when shelled, but they grow like peanut, i in the ground, with only one pea to l the pod. They are fit for nothing but 1 hogs and he raises them for that pur- ! pose. After gathering a few for seed he turns his hogs in on them.
 In gathering seed corn he serves the top ear of those stalks which bear two. A while before the corn ripens he goes through his fields and marks the two ear stalks which begin to ripen first.
 He plants for early feeding sixty day corn, which he feeds to his horses sixty-fve days after planting. For instance, if he plants on the first day of April he will be able to com mence feeding it on June 5. Any farmer who had to buy feed the past summer will not need to be told the advantage of raising a corn which he can commence feeding on the first of June.
 He had a patch of white Bermuda onions growing in his graden, by spring they will be large enough to eat. He raises them successfully and they are the only onion he can eat. People who abhor the taste of onions, can eat them and like them, because the onion taste is almost entirely lacking.
 Another southern crop he grew successfully was genuine ribbon cane. Last fall he had plenty to seed all the ground he wished to plant, but in putting 1t away for the winter he covered it too deep and it rotted. So he did not lose 1t because our winter was too cold, but because 1t was too warm. Others, who intend raising 1t should make note of this and prepare plenty of ventilation, which can be closed during real cold weather.
 MT. Harry has good Jersey cows and Red Duroc hogs. One three month old pig he had was the finest 1 have seen this fall. It Is a beauty and was admired by all who saw her at the fair. She was also as gentle and we'll behaved as a baby. He was not going to exhibit her nor his boar until 1 talked him into the mo- ton, possibly he would have exhibit ed nothing had 1 not visited him, but his exhibit was next to mine and at racted much favorable notice. Mrs. Harry's exhibit of fancy work was very fine and altogether their exhibit would have made a fine community exhibit, yet I know they got it all up in about one days time. There were also many different kinds of canned goods in their exhibit. My detailed description of their exhibit commencing with the farm on which it has grown, and something about the people who grew 1t, should incite in others a determination to have a better exhibit for next falls fairs than any shown this year. One lit tie two.year-old daughter, Ruth, is all the family they have besides them selves, and she while furnishing motive for their working, Is no help in doing the work, but takes more or less of her mothers time away from her home duties.
 The farm is a rolling sandy soil, which Mir. Harry has had to levee to keep it from washing away, and ire quently during heavy rains he has put on his slicker and rubber boots and waded out in the mud to see how his levees were holding, and to see where they needed strengthening. He is one of the progressive farmers who has asked Mir. Sargent to visit with him and advise him on terracing his farm.
 Hardly mile further on I stop ped at P. C. Hardcastle's and took dinner. It rained the night before
