bly, whose terms of service to the people
are now alamt le clone, and how uufor- |

who that is familiar with the delibera- :
tious of the two lost Legislators is not i

Seldom, indeed, are they caught in the

In rcfereuce to the reduction of the

Oun Man.
It is not generally known by aur far
mers that one acre of land planted in
corn, with the plants one foot apart, will
produce over 150,000 pounds, but it has
doue so tty actual experiment. An ncre
of laud ooutains 43,800 square feet, and
a stalk oi green com will weigh 3j
pututda. When cured it will neigh about
oue pound. So we have 150,000 pounds
>f green forage or 53,560 pound* of cured
forage to the sere.
With these facts before them, why will
farmers allow their cattle to roam at
large, uibbliug the grass on old fields,
juinpiug fences, destroying crops and
yielding no profit in milk and butter
when they could keep them in good order
in a stable aud feed three animals the
entire year on t oe production of one sore,
aud thus save the manure to enrich the
land ? Aud why mil they devote the
hot and sultry days of August to fodder
pulling, which causes their com to shrink,
when they o.iuld raimi plenty of better
forage from sowing dowu su acre or two
in corn. These things should enlist the
attention of thefarmersof Middle Georgia.

AS HAS BEEN FdOVEI) B\ ACTUAL TESTS, really produce 25 to s*» pounds more
