The heavy drop in the price of eggs
was largely due to the importation
of large quantities of this product
from China. However, we believe
that the farmer should plan to keep
the usual amount of poultry. Green

TEN will get winter eggs. Plan now
to cut the cost of production and
make profit.

at Life and Warren's Bluff will do
this. Henderson county is well sit

We didn't urge NJ. Youngerman to
spray his orchard three years ago be-
cause ne was so busy. 1t is now bad
ly infested with scale. We make mis-
takes and this was one of them. You
cannot afford not to spray your or

SO. BEGIN TO THINK ABOUT
THIS NOW.

We often hear farmers state that
they would grow sweet potatoes if
they could get such and such a price
at digging time. The man who buys
them at this time does not operate on
six. per cent. We would not if we
were in the business. We would much
rather see the farmer grow his crop
take the risk of marketing it and get
the profit.

Velvet beans planted in corn on
this land will help solve the problem
of wintering cattle. Land that will
not produce a good crop of corn will
make a heavy growth of vines and
some beans. Cows like them too.
Keep this in mind while planning
your crop this year. George Barker
gives this as his experience and
thinks his crop has a place on Hen
derson county farms. Wintering
cattle must be done on cheap feed.
The farmer who keeps this principal
in mind is the one that makes money
on cattle.

An acre of sweet potatoese should
be grown on every farm. A. M.
Jones, in a talk on this crop at Chap
pei Hill last Friday produced figures
to show that there was more profit
on one acre of sweet potatoes grown
on his farm this year than 16 acres
rented for cotton on the shares. He
has tried both and has a reputation
of being able to make his farming
pay if possible.

Louis Bradfield still keeps produc-
ing pork. He keeps two brood sows.
On the 18th one of them dropped 13
pigs and saved nine of them. The
other one had eight-which is the
least number she has ever dropped.
He has rye sowed for them and has
tankage on hand to feed them. The
pasture with tankage and corn will
produce pork cheaper than corn alone,
Perhaps that is why this farmer
still plays the game. He has fed hogs
before.
