The Farmers’ Index. A SERIOUS QUESTION. Thousands of farmers in the South are called upon to solve a most important and vital problem. The seasons have been extremely unfavorable in many sections; in fact, few localities have es caped the all-consuming and allidestroy ing drouth, and the hopes of plenty have been blasted as by the sirocco. A great many have not supplies sufficient to last them until Cnristmas.. In face of all this, the cotton crop is turning out to be much below an average, in many places less than half a crop will be gathered, and, in addition, the Western crop of corn and wheat is a comparative failure. Many large sections of the great granary of the country will not have a bushel of corn to spare. Merchants who have “run” the farmers this year and the last two or three years, are impatient and anxious. The question is, how to bridge over the hungry chasm that stares us in the face. In previous is-ues we have given timety suggestions which we hope have been heeded. The fall rains have been plentiful in most places, and there can be no excuse for failure to sow barley, rys, and early oats, on account of dry weather. Tne efforts of the farm? r should now be directed to supply the im mediate demands of family and stock for the winter ami spring months to come, and every resource should be brought to bear to this end. Let next year’s cotton and corn crop take care of themselves for the prerent. Economy in the use of present supplies, should be the watchword. We have al ready stressed this point, but “line upon line” is not out of place. The abundant fall crop of grass should—every blade of it —be saved as far as possible. The patches and small fields of oats, barley, and rye, should be fertilized without stint, by the liberal application of stable manure and cotton seed. All surplus animals, that require to be fed through the winter, should be disposed of in some wav, so as to relieve, as far as may be, the demands upon the garnered stores. It should be a rule not to winter a hog, (other than the number of stock hogs that are absolutely necessary) that can be put in fair order and made to produce seventy-five or a hundred p >unds of pork, without too great a draught on the corn crib. Dry cattle of inferior milking quality should be pastured and when in good order butchered or sold on foot. Surplus mules should be sold ofi' to more fortunate farmers. What corn is seen to be absolutely necessary to buy, should be purchased at once. The next Spring will probably witness the greatest scarcity of home grown pro visions in the South, that has occurred since 1860; and with this difference : In 1860, while the failure of the corn crop was universal in the South, the Western crop was one of the most abundant ever known, and corn commanded only one dollar per bushel in the Spring of 1881. In addi ion,' the corn crop of 1859 was exceptionally good, in the South, and quite a large surplus was on hand in the fall of 1860, which post poned - in many cases—the use of the cron of the latter year until the following January. THE EXPOSITION. As the day approaches for the open ing exercises and inauguration of this grand Exhibit of Southern Productions and Resourses, the work at the Grounds is being hurried up, and one after an other of the various buildings finished and turned over for occupation. The grounds exterior to tile buildings are be ing handsomely layer! off into walks and drives, and ornamented with fountains, statuary and plants. Exhibitors and their various articles are arriving in large numbers, and already the city is beginning to put on somewhat the ap pearance inseparable from such an occa sion. Permanent rooms for lodging are in demand at full and increasing prices, provisions are booming, merchants are opening and displaying immense stocks of attractive goods. Notwithstanding the great pall that has been thrown over the country by the death of Presi dent Garfield, the indications are that the Cotton Exposition will be a great success. It was a part of the original plan that the then President of the United States should bepresentand take a conspicuous part in the opening cere monies, and we think it would be a graceful act to invite the new Piesident to succeed to this opportunity to intro duce himself in person to the people of the South. While the opening of the Exposition will doubtless be an occasion of very great interest, we would suggest to any of our readers who may expect to make but one visit of a few days to postpone it until assured that the show is fairly open. The confusion and state of un readinessin the matter of exhibits which is apparently inseparable from such oc casions during the first few days, will probably prevent a full enjoyment of a visit at that period. It will prove an opportunity that should not be neglected by any citizen of Georgia who is inter ested in the progress and prosperity of the South, or who desires to witness in operation all the arts connected with the growth, culture and manufacture of our great product, as well as the finest and most comprehensive display of the p-oducts of all climes that has ever been made at the South. ——♦ » SOME CURIOSITIES IN SOUTH WEST GEORGIA. On a recent horseuack trip from Bos ton to Camilla we paid a visit to our friend Mr. H. H. Sanford, proprietor of the famous Dixie Nurseries near Thom asville. Not an acre of cotton on his entire farm. Cotton, cotton, cotton all the way from Athens to Bainbridge, and from Rome to Brunswick, yet here is a farmer who has prospered without it. No wonder that his home is one of comfort and thrift. Mr. Sanford, like Mr. Berckmans of Augusta, has been very kind in assisting a Camilla pastor to ornament his humble country home. Many a tree and shrub about Pearland Cottage is a memento of these large hearted friends. Mr. Sanford labels bis presents of evergreens to “Girl No. 1,” “Girl No. 2,” etc. Mrs. Underwood objects to my telling The Index how many numbers there are. another oasis in the desert of cotton is the farm of Dr. McTyre, with whom we spent the night, five miles north of Thomasville. No cotton there, but fine corn and rice and THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 188 I. grasses in abundance. We felt that we were out of Georgia, but not far from home with this good friend and his noble wife, who always welcome those who are working for Christ. BRICK SM' KE-BOT ES are fashionable now in Mitchell county. Who would have thought that from a wilderness we would have advanced in a few years to that degree of civilization? But it is a fact. Most of our wooden smoke-houses were burned to the ground last winter and we are now putting up brick ones. We think they will be cool er and safer. We have them all built close together on the streets of Camilla and have nice merchants and clerks to handle the keys, weigh out our ration and keep the accounts. It is too much trouble to raise hogs and too hazardous to cure our meat. It is much more gen teel to raise cotton and buy every thing else. Then we are afraid of disasters to hog raising, but can risk caterpillars, rust, drought, storms, low prices and every thing else in this sure and delight ful cotton business. And then the old fashion of having smoke-houses at home is not sociable. What care we “to sit under our own vine and tig tree.” We want to go to town. We don’t want any vines and fig trees. We prefer to sit at the stores and other town places to talk about the crops and politics and the news. This is much better than co stay at home and attend to pigs and coltsand sheep. Negroes won’t raise them for us and we’ll perish rather than do it our selves. But any old or young darkey can hoe and pick out cotton while we are gone to town or are off fishing or hunt ing. Besides we love to eat bacon before we pay for it. It shows that our credit is good. These old fogoes who raise their own meat and pay cash for other things, —why they never know how their credit stands. The fact is they have no credit. We town smoke-house men— we are the men of credit. That old pro verb is true which says “the borrower is servant to the louder.” But we like that sort of servitude. We belong to the merchants, but they are a good set of fellows. They love their servants and treat us kindly. This is the fashion, but, some of out people w’ill always be behind the fashion Many of our farmers raise their supplies home. Tney obey the scriptures and “di igent to know the state of their cks and look well bo their herds,” and don’t bot' er themselves much about the flocks and herds of Illinois and Ohio. .has blessed them and God will bless them. A DOG COLLEGE we found on a recent visit to Cairo, in about four miles of that place. Mr. Albert Winter is the president. He has recently employed an able assistant. Board and tuition per session of six months amount to seventy-five dollars. Each student has a room to himself on the grounds of the president, and re ceives his daily attention. Tne curricu lum of studies is very thorough anti the discipline, especially for the freshman class, is very rigid. Indeed, the rod is used freely when necessary. We had thought there were some funny colleges in Georgia, but this is the funniest of all. Mr. Winterifhas male and female and yet whips them all. He has students from New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ten nessee and other States. No other col lege in Georgia has such an extended patronage. None need apply for admission with out first class papers. This school is very select, indeed aristocratic. It is ahead of Cambridge and Oxford in Eng land. The pedigree of the pupils must not only be known, but must be a good one. Their parents must not only have been worth money, but must have had an ancestry. Talk of “F. F. V’s.,” to Mr. Winter’s pupil a , why, the first blood of England, Scotland, and Ireland, flow in their veins. a EI nos aliquod nomenque decusque gessimui. Mr. Winter is an intelligent Georgia gentleman who has taught a country school successfully near Cairo, but who now finds it more profitable to train pointers and setters for Northern sports men who come to our section to hunt in the winter. The business pays him well. Some men will spare no expense to have their dogs trained, while others will pat’ but little to have their children educat ed. J.- L. U.
