Field Notes Frequent shallow cultivation of all crops will pay—especially corn. I had occasion to observe the work of our minister-farmer in his corn field a few days ago. The roots thereof were torn from their sockets—no more to drink in the soup to feed the stalks, blades and ear. More than three inches may be called deep culti vation which is needed only in preparation of the seed bed ahd in cases where the grass and weeds have gotten the upper hand. Don’t lay-by too soon; cultivate late but very shallow, the object of which is to conserve the soil moisture at the crucial time when the ear is making. Most all grain is harvested and a considerable amount of it threshed. The oat crop will be short; the wheat fairly good. The Virginia wheat (Leaps Prolific) seems to be more than doubling the yield of the Georgia grown Blue Stem variety. Bob Conner’s yield of the former was 28 bush els per acre, of the latter about 11. A similar proportionate yield was made bv G. W. Thornton who made a total yield of 117 bushels. While the grain crop was not what we hoped for I would urge every farmer not to grow dis heartened, but try again. We may make a bumper crop next time. The fault often lies within ourselves and not in the weather. We wait most too late to put in Beer and Temperance A CHRONIC grouch who doesn’t feel right after eat* ing half a pound of meat, eight ounces of potatoes, vegetables, bread, butter, pickles, pie ana cheese galore—that’s intemperance. Eminent authorities are agreed that beer is a temper* ance drink and a highly nourishing beverage. It is a fowerful aid to digestion. On this point Dr. F. ¥. Pavy, ellow of the Royal College of Physicians, London, recently expressed himself as follows: "Beer is a refreshing, exhilarating nutritive. A light bear, well flavored with the hop, it calculated to promote digestion, and may be looked up on as constituting one of the most whole- /MfMMMA some of the alcoholic class of beverages UUEHjßjgHMk The average citizen—in fine fettle —eating well cooked and well chosen KwfflHß* 1 * 1 * food in moderate quantities and drink* ing an occasional glass of mild, refresh* WfCTTvPYi\ ing beer; rising next morning in perfect mental and physical condition —that’s True Temperance. oats. They do better if sown in October or even September. Spring-sown oats nearly always result in a failure. Drilled oats have much the advantage of those sown broadcast and takes less oats per acre. A well tilled cotton middle makes an ideal seed bed for oats —three rows to the middle. Account Inauguration Governor-elect NAT. E. HARRIS Atlanta, Ga., June 26th.
