Everyone knowr how McTIgue showed great brav cry by entrring the ring, at the point of pistols In the hands of those wild barbarians that roam the main streets of Columbus—at- ter having tried his best to Jump the fight.

The oats, on good land, will make 100 bushels per acre, and the seed farm grew 36 bushel* of rye per acre! Mr. Cofer says it is easy to make 25 bushels of this rye per acre against from 8 to 12 bushels of the common variety. And it takes no more money or labor to grow these pediflftfd and highly improved seed than the ordinary kinds, yet they will in crease the crop yield at least one- third and the keed sell for more than double price. The" PedigTeed Chamber of Commerce taking such an interest in the farmer and his advancement. This body has just issued a circular for dis tribution among the farmers of our section urging upon them the importance of producing more high class forage, and especially directing their attention, td the value of alfalfa. The circularMays by increasing the acreage in alfalfa our people will save the money sent out of the state for hay and some por tions of other feed stuffs, and uko that the raising of cattle and hogs might be profitably increas ed to the same end. Every farm er should have at least one acre of alfalfa for each work animal. It !s best to start in a small way -—••• ---- -—----- on good soil. The circular then, Seed Company at Hartsville, S. C , tells farmers to select fertile, well makes it a business to improve all drained soils. The beginning of tne last week in September to the ond of October has been found the best time to sow alfalfa seed in this sectfon. Good results have been obtained by sowing alfalfa seed after a crop of cowpea hay has been harvested. The soil for a’falfa should be firm, well set- least cne thousand' acre.

The hay goes a long wav toward paying cost of working tho crop. Mr. Arnold says it takes labor to grow peanuts, and you must keep the plows mov'.ng. But he baa dis covered a way to cultlvste them with a rush. He takes a tractor and attaches to It two harrows and plows his crop both ways. Ho can get over some twenty or thirty acres a day this way and the har rowing does not inju-ro the vines. In fact the best nuts he has are the one he worked' tf’th harrows.

Mr. Arnold this year had three of hfe tenants to plant four acres of cotton each, and In stead of poison he used to destroy the weevil* a mixture of tobacco juice and the buckeye. The mix- ture cost him only one dollar an > acre, and It Is equal to caltfum arsenate to eradicate the weevil. One of his negroes made about y thor oughly just before sowing. Twen ty pounds of seed to the acre will be needed under good conditions. The inoculation can be had by using soil from alfalfa or burr clover fields, stable manure can be scattered either before of after the seed are sown. If stable ma nure is not used, 400 pounds of acid phosphate to each acre is tha* only -commercial fertilizer needed. You can also use 100 pounds of nitrate of soda with each 400 pounds of acid phosphate on lands that are not of hign fertility and when the use of stable manure is practical. American seed are the best for use in this section. Have the seed free from other seed and foreign matter. kinds of field seed and they are ,nat only making money for their companjT but are benefitting the whole country. Mr. Cofer says we can grow these pedigreed seed in this sec tion as well- as anywhere in the south, and we ought to organize a company and start the work. The \yintervillc Pure Seed Associa tion has started out on the right line, but to make a success of the business a regular seed farm for their production should be estab lished and controlled by (expert and scientific farmers. With the State Agricultural College and its trained faculty at our doors there iis no place in the sout* better adapted as the location for a pedigreed seed farm than this sec tion. Some one withTa nice farm near Athens should see Mr. Cofer and let one be started by next season. • THEN SHE* FAINTED The Tinker—I’ve come to fix that old tub in the kitchen.

Those who have tested this gnu ,ay that one acre, when well rooted, will fur nish abundant feed for eight or ten head of cattle during the year. The introduction of this gnu we believe wives the cattle nla- Ing problem for this lection. As stated any farmer by planting an acre can grow plenty of food for eight or ten head of cattle during the vear and U wilt cncounge the building of silo,, for they can be ao easily filled. Mr. Hulme will put up a mill when he getr well started tq grind this gnu into meal, for it makes the but of cattle feed. J. A. Winslow, industrial agent for the Central Railway, uys he considers this grass one of the greatest crops in the wuth. He has * patch that measured fei. feet high and from one bunch he got a bundle oi green food that weighed forty-three pounds. He also cut thirty-nine tons of splen did hay from one sere. This sounds improbable, out by visit ing Mr. Hulmt's farm and talking with that gentleman you can have i'.; doubts removed. H cold Hulme I* enthusiastic ever this gnu, as shown by hie planting one hundred acres.
