As for Wheat, so also for oats the aoll should be plowed to a medium depth and then well pulverized, for a good seed bed is necessary In order to produce the best results with even so hardy a grain as oats. It is better that the soil should be dry and mel low when they are sown. In a moist season oats will do very well on a sandy soil, but the best yields, as a general rule, are made on a fine clay loam, with good drain age. When the seed bed haa been well prepared and leveled, the oats may be sown broadcast, or put In with a drill. The latter method Is probably better, since when they are drilled in they are in a sort of trough, andi when a freeze comes, the earth is noi drawn away from the roots, as the ground rises with the freeze and settles with the thaws, but is thrown around them. This prevents the crop from being in jured by a freeze. The winter oat is generally sown In October at the rate of about two bush els to the acre. They afford good winter and spring pasture. When the stock have ben taken off this pasture, an ample crop of grain will be ready for reaping In June; hut never allow stock to graze upon your grain dur ing wet or damp weather. This crop, with comparatively little expense , aids greatly in making a farm self-sustaining. Our farmers will do well to plant largely of oats. GA. DEP’T OF AGRICULTURE. Improve Your Farm. Every good farmer should try to Im prove his soil each year. Unless you adid as much plant food as the crop takes from the soil, every year your farm gets poorer and your chances for profit grow less and less. While on the other hand, if you will increase the fertility of the land year by year, you increase your profits continually. Hence rotate your crops. Sow cow peas aften grain. Turn them under in the fall. Use barn lot manure and compost made on the farm. If you ■till need more plant food, buy a high grade commercial fertilizer and judi ciously feed all your crop plants, with a liberal hand, Just as you feed your live stock. Feed to cattle cotton seed meal and hulls and fatten same for market. They will pay you a profit and their voldings will enrich your rarm.—Geor gia Agricultural Department. Turnips. Turnips will grow on almost any kind of soil, from sand to heavy clay and muck. The common English tur nip does best on a light, sandy oi gravelly loam, well manured at the time of planting. Rutabagas thrive best on a heavy soil, made rich by fertilizing. Fresh stable manure should never be used for them, be cause it gives them a strong flavor, which unfits them for table use. Commercial fertilizers are better foi this crop than farm manure, both be cause the turnips are less liable tfl be eaten by worms and the bulbc grow smoother and more regular in form. Of course, as with every other crop the first requisite is a god seed-bed. If the seed is put in by drilling the rows should be from sixteen to eighteen inches apart. When the plants have grown suffi ciently for the rough leaf to be de veloped, they should be thinnedi out to six or eight Inches apart. After the final thinning the plants should be from eight to ten inches apart. The weeds should be kept down with a cultivator or horse-hoe and the soil stirred In this manner sev eral times. This cultivation should be completed before the leaves have become very large. In order to pre vent the attacks of the turnip fly, it is well to sprinkle the plants in fhe ea-rly morping, before the 'dew is dry, with a little lime dust. The rutabaga requires a richer soil and more fertilizing than the common white turnip. What we have said under the head of storing sweet potatoes is true ol turnips also, with the additional sug gestion that the tops should -be trimmed aa close as possible to the turnip without cutting the turnip It self. GA. DEPT OF AJOHIOUTVrURm A Good Example. So you don’t lik« your job! Yoi are bossed and criticised. You do things wrong anfl some body finds fault. And the hours are long and Mae nay small. You know a fellow younger than you are who draws twice the money and lias a soft snap. You got the short of everything. You are blue and skulk. Perhaps you sol dier a bit at times, and you won der whv somebody doesn’t pro mote you and tell you you are worth more money. Life seems like a stream of indigo—to you. Lots of young fellows reason that way. They make themselves miserable. They spoil their lives and they decrease their efficien cy. They have health, homes, good friend", and they refuse to make the best of things. Read about Tony Springle- meier. He has no iegs, to speak of. A freight train trimmed him for keeps thirteen vears ago and made him a cripple. He has so much pluck and so much human sunshine in his breast that he re fuses to be blue. He works—bless you, how he works—at anything that is honor able. The other day, with pick and shovel, lie was helping tear down an okl building, doing a whole man’s work and drawing a whole man’s pay. “I ask no odds of any of ’em,” he said, as he buried hii pick in a mass of brick. “I’ve a pair of cork legs, but I prefer to work as l am.” He laughed, It was the hear ty laugh of a brave, light-heart ed, strong man. He found time to court a young woman and win her, to rear chil dren and make proud of him. Yes, sir, there is a happy family over in Covington that belongs to Tony Springelmeier, the tailor. When you see a man in that condition refusing to be gloomy, getting along in spite of his hand icap, and carrying a whole heart in a crippled body, doesn’t it make you feel like cutting out your sulks, stopping kicking and making the best of the sound body and the opportunities that are yours?—Cincinnati Post.

It is said that President. Roose velt is busy on his message to t he extra session of congress. There is nothing in that, session, how ever, to necessitate a message which will require much prepa ration. Ordinarily, the messages which go to special sessions of congress are very much shorter than are those to the regular as semblages of that, body. This is not a session in which the coun try lias a profound interest.. It differs very widely in this re spect, from the one called by Lin coln in 1861, and likewise from that, summoned by Cleveland in 1898. Lincoln had a good many things to tkink of and to say at that time. Cleveland was both ered considerably, too, by the panic which incited the assem blage of congress in the summer of ten years ago. In the United States at the present time every thing is serene, so far as regards the need of congressional action. All that, the session of Novem ber will be called on to deal witl is Cuban reciprocity.
