 I guess our readers have begun to think by now we are dead, it has been so long since we have written.
 The farmers of this community are very busy harvesting their crops. Cotton picking, corn gathering and making molasses is all the go. We have been so busy we haven't had time to write.
 Mrs. Steele has been very i'll with pneumonia, but is improving nicely now.
 D. V. Turley has gone into the butcher business. He peddles beef every Wednesday and Friday. If any one wishes to have nice fresh beef just hail him and he will be glad to supply you.
 Luther Holmes has been i'll. He had a nervous breakdown and was taken to Little Rock for medical at tention. He has returned home and is doing fine now.
 Mrs. ]. A. Hackney has gone to Missouri to spend few months. He will return in January. We miss her very much and will be glad when she returns.
 Mrs. J. E. Munson visited her mother and father, MT. and Mrs. D. V. Hurley, the past week.
 Our pastof, Rev. R. W. Nall, has purchased a car. We think they will come out here more often now since they have convenient way to come.
 Luster Hurley is now working for George Douglas of Zion Hill.
 E. s. Hudson of the Terry Dairy farm is very i'll at this writing.
 Little Inez Hurley spent Thursday night with her sister, Mrs. J. E. Mun- son.
 Luster Turley won the prize in the athletic contest at the community fair at Halstead. Miss Clemmie Hudson won the prize on Reclamation and spelling. The prizes were $2 each. Her competitors were Miss Madge Cameron of Halstead in Reclamation and Miss Flora Lemaster of Hal stead, in spelling.
 Our school is progressing nicely and we expect to have all of our pupils back in school in week or two. We have about 27 enrolled from the first grade to the ninth, in- elusive.
 It rained our Sunday school and preaching services out, but we had a fine crowd at the B. Y. P. U. Sunday night.
 D. V. Turley and family called on Mir. Steele and family.
 Luther Holmes and son, Earl, went to the city Monday.

Short Courses Open
At Florida College
Early Next January

Three short courses will be held
at the College of Agriculture, Uni
versity of Florida, January 4 to IA.
1921. These courses are planned to
meet the needs of busy farmers and
farm women.
The three courses are: Firsc. an
imal husbandry and general agricul-
ture; second, citrus culture and veg
etab!e growing; and thir,l, poultry
husbandly. Each course viii run the
full ten days. and will consist of lee
iur s and lob ratory work. The
field, the da ry, the poultry plant,
and the laboratories of the College
of Agriculture and the experiment
station will be utilized.
The teaching force will consist OF

Federal Inspection
Is Now Available in
Many Market Centeys

Market inspection of fruits and
vegetables by representatives of the
bureau of markets Of the United
States deDartment of agriculture is
now available in twenty-five inpor-
tant market centers, and in addition
about $50 smaller markets tributary
to these have been designated as in
spection points.
The purpose of this service is to
provide a weu-trained and neutral
inspector who can certify the quality
and condition of various perishables
upon their arrival in the market.
Such certificates are received in the
federal courts as Drima facie cyl
dence of quality and condition at the
time of arrival in the market.
The value of the service has been
to bring about a settlement of claims
against railroads and as a basis of
arbitration where dissatisfaction
arises between shipper and receiver.
II protects the shipper who is trad
ing at long distance from unscruDu-
lous dealers, and it also furnishes
protection to honest dealers
against the possibility of being con-
sidered INSCRIPTIONS
These inspections are made on re-
quest and there is a nominal charge
of 81 car for the service.

Saving Seed Corn

A stream can rise no higher than
it's source. Likewise, the seed plant
ed measures back to the farmer the
exact character Of its ancestry.
Breeding and lineage have given us
superior types of plants and animals.
Race horses capable of travelling a
mile in record time are not the re-
suit of accident.
If these things be true, and they
are, then it behooves us to give more
consideration and attention to the Sc
lection of the seed corn we expect
to plant. We are all much concern
ed about the corn crop because Of
the wealth it produces and because
of the important function It performs
in our agricultural economy. If we
can devise way by which more
corn can be raised on the present
erS Of the state can make a material
gain in the wealth derived from this
crop.
So there is. every reason why we
should consider ways and means Of
improving the corn crop. There are
many factors that might be con-
sidered in a discussion of this kind,
all of which would have an impor-
tant bearing on the question at is
sue. 1t is desirable. however. on
this occasion to confine the discus
sion to a consideration of seed So
16CI1On.
Good Seed Pays
Those who have studied this mat
ter know perfectly we'll that we can
increase our present yield of corn
anywhere from five to ten bushels
per acre if we select and plant high
grade strains of seed. There is not
a plant or flower which has been
cultivated that does not now yield
much more than it did in a state of
nature, and corn is certainly not an
exception to the rule.
That we should give attention to
seed selection is self-evident for
many reasons. Anyone who has ex-
amined a corn field in the south will
find that there are many skips in
the rows. They will discover that
there are lots of plants which occupy
space and take up moisture and
plant food from the soil but produce
nothing.
Why cultivate a drone when a pro-
ductive corn plant might, be had If
only little better type of seed were
planted? Why grow any strain of
corn in which the tendency Is to pro-
duce an excessive amount of stalk
and small and imperfect ear when
one can secure seeds Of strains that

s1airring Dressed Turkeys

After cooling they are packed I'M

inadvisable for the producer without
proper refrigerating facilities to
ship dressed turkeys, as losses from
improper cooling and from their be-

from this it is seldom profitable to

the marketing season for turkeys
very short, running as it does from
the middle of November to, the latter
part of December.
Marketing Turkeys
Most turkey ralsers sell their
birds alive to poultry dealers, who
either dress them or ship them alive
to city dealers. Farmers near the
city markets, and particularly those
in the middle Atlantic and New Eng
land states, often dress the turkeys
and either sell them direct to the
consumer Or to city dealers. In
giving there sis held what is known
as turkey day. On that day before
this event every turkey grower i'll

his turkeys, and the following morn
ing brings them into town, where
they are bid on and purchased by
buyers. the birds going to the high
st bidder.
In sections where Turkeys are

poultry dealers, who buy the birds

Now S the Time to
Danish the Mites

This is the time of the year to, be
On the constant lookout for the pres
cnce of mites on the fowls and par
ticularly in the poultry house. These
insect pests not only lower the vi
tally of the birds, and thus render
them liable to disease. but their
presence has a decidedly bad effect
on egg production. Frequent spray
ing of all cracks and crevices of the
house and the undersides of the
roosts with kerosene or per cent
carbolic acid will greatly help to
eradicate mites. and thus add to the
comfort and general health of the
birds.

Steamed Bone Meal as Lawn
Fertilizer
S. E, D., Warrenton, Ga,
writes: Which is best to use,
steamed bone meal or raw bone
meal for fertilizer on an old lawn?
The constituents contained in raw
as quickly available as those con-
tanned in steamed bone meal The
value of bone meal for fertilizing
purposes depends largely on the fine
ness to which it is ground 1t is
difficult to grind raw bone very fine
because of the considerable amount
of fat it contains. This fat protects
the bone from bacterial action and
hence the raw bone meal decomposes
more slowly in the soil than steamed
bone meal.
A high grade of raw bone meal
contains from IA to per cent of
nitrogen and from 20 to % per cent
Of phosphoric acid. The steamed
product on the other hand contains
only about IL to 2 per cent of
nitrogen and from % to 80 per cent
of phosphoric acid. PersoHally, I
would prefer to use the steamed bone
meal and add some carrier of nitrogen
that would raise the percentage of
this element to at least 4 per cent
of a quickly available nitrogen.
You could, of course, use cotton
seed for this purpose with advantage.
Any fertilizer intended for a lawn
will be improved if you add some
potash to it. MY own experience in
dictates that lawns benefit by lining
with crushed raw rock at the rate
of at least two tons ner acre. I also
find that the application Of not less
than 500 to 1000 pounds of a fer
tiliZer containing from to Pc
cent of nitrogen, s to 10 per cent of
phosphoric acid and to 5 per cent
Of potash is very desirable.
I apply this fertilizer in two APP
plications, one in the fall and one
in the spring. I rake it into the sur
face of the ground. I have found
this a very desirable formula to use
on lawns which one desires to keen
green and attractive through the fall,
winter and spring by seeding thereon
blue grass, italian rye <grass and
white or Dutch clover.

Farming All Right
But System sWrong, -
SAYS "CuEtivator y

We have hundreds of farmers
abusing their calling and hayir 2.
they ;ere going to quit. We do
not blame any one for quitting if
he can do better, elsewhere We
have never been one of those TO
cry ''Gt2y on the Farm" or Back
to the Farm" This is all gotten
up by men who want farmers to
make a cheap living for them,
we DO Want to champion the truth
always and help those on the
farms in every way that we can.
Now, the farm is not to blame
for our troubles; the fault lies
in the system that we are follow
ing. On our recent trip UP north,
we found that the farmers in the
grain belt were ten times as well
off as the cotton farmers. Why?
They grow something TO eat. They
could live at home and sell the
surplus. They do not require so
much labor to produce a crop.
The cotton farmer produces what
he cannot use-what he must
turn into quick money-what the
buyers and mill men are always
planning to get rs cheaply rs
money and this gets US into trou-|
BILE. If we farced to make a liv-
ing the money would come in as
a by-product. 1t would be far
better not to abuse the funda-
mental calling upon which all
others rest, but to plan more
wisely to make it more independ-
ent. 1t is not farming that causes
our troubles, but it is the way
we have been farming. Now
hundreds will quit another year.
and we do not wish them i'll,
but on the other hand we wish
them well. Still they will find
that trouble does not dwell in the
country alone. To those who
will endeavor to change for the
better another year, we extend a
cordial hand. Farming in the
cotton belt can be made to pay.
1t can be made a business thHt
will give in return a fair profit
and much pleasure. But to get
this much out of it, you must
put into it, wise planning and
Conservative work. Three thou
sand years ago the old Lotus
found this much out: THAT. pru-
dence was the better part of val
or" 1921 is a year to practice
this old adage:TSouthern Guilt
vator.
