DOWN ON THE FARM
By W. M. BRYAN
“’We are in the midst of harvest
time and are planning for next year’s
crop. We guess every farmer has
started his fall garden. Get busy
mjow. It is time to sow oats and rye
and legume crops. We see a short
age of feed will occur in many places
in our county and prices will be high.
So, no wget busy and sow some rye
and oats. Early sowing of grain
is better than late sowing. A few
acres of rye sown now will produce
>25 worth of feed per acre and S3O
worth corn per acre after harvest.
It is a wise plan for every farmer
to have something growing on his
farm all .the time for feed crops.
In the fall have turnips, clover,
vetch, barley, rye, oats, wheat and
all the legume crops. It pays to
have a cover crop on your farm. I
am trying to tell you something, you
know, in as simple way as consistent.
We as farmers know when we have
to buy our feed and food. We are
going down to failures. Don’t we
know if we spend all our cotton mon
ey to buy supplies, we cannot expect
a bank account. We need to take
Mock of our business. Most farm
emrs drift along, as the saying goes,
and never study where the shortage
can be made good. We hear some
say it won’t pay them to sow wheat.
A bad mistake. For instance, take a
glance at the most progressive farm
ers of the county and you will find
they grow some wheat as a genera]
thing. When you see a fellow that
grows his food on his farm this fel
low has his children in school, he
has some cotton money to buy school
books, tuition and board. If this
farmer did not farm modern his
children would have to go through
life handicapped. As I started out
to remind ourselves about sowing of

grain. You will find it is much
more pleasant to raise oats, rye and
wheat to feed your stock than to
work your head off to raise corn and
fodder to feed your plow mule. If
you are a farmer don’t rest until you
sow you some kind of feed crop.
You nearly always will get a stand
of oats sown in the open furrow. I
think it a good plan to sow a few
acrese of oats and wheat mixed, one
peck wheat and six pecks oats, makes
a fine mixture. Say, how about
starting you a crimson clover patch?
If you have never tried it, do so this
fall. Raise you enough on one acre
to sow most of your farm next
year.
You have been given directions
how to plant clovers. You have un
til November 1 to plant clovers. Clo
ver will make your land very rich.
Go over and see your neighbor that
is growing clover. One word as to
terracing. In the fall after crops
are gathered is the time to get your
terraces ready for next year. The
broad terrace is better than the nar
row one. Give your terrace a little
drain, one inch to 30 feet. •Begin
in center of field and go each way.
Be sure and cultivate your terrace.
Have three rows on each terrace. If
you have never worked your ter
races in crops, try it next year. If
you are afraid they will wash away,
put cane on them as an experiment.
One fellow said he made 300 gallons
syrup on his terraces. He said he
was convinced that cultivating your
terraces was the idea.
Have confidence in yourself, and
if ydu are not taking a good farm
paper, do so as soon as possible. If
I see a farmer growing things bet
ter than I do, I will give him a
friendly call and give him a bouquet
and this makes him feel good and
with pleasure he tells me how he
did it.
This is hoping that some good fel-

low that never sowed grain last year
will now get busy.
School*.
I believe it would be timely to call
to mind the much needed attention
to education. We feel encouraged
to note that so many are taking such
interest in educating their children,
which means better citizens for our
common wealth. While on the oth
er hand so many are so careless as
to the future welfare of their chil
dren. A high school education
means five times more salary than
one without an education. Say, if
this appeals to you, start your boy
and girl to school now. The future
of the country demands it. It will
be so sad to see the boys and girls
of our fine section grow up in ig
norance. We need to show people
of this class the importance of send
ing their children to school.
We note the decline in some sec
tions of attending church. The
people of these sections need more
light. We often see a disappointed
life. It makes us feel bad. Let’s
be up and doing, improve our oppor
tunities. Now get busy and take
more interest in your home commu
nity. Talk to the boys and girls
of the teep age and encourage them
to study and improve their minds,
encourage them to attend Sunday
school and church and this will aid
them in the plans for future life.
Have debating societies in your
section. Bring in the boys and
girls to these societies that are not
in school, have athletic teams and
improvement clubs and make it a
point to get people interested in
these things. Your rural teacher
might help you in co-operating with
the leading citizens of your commu
nity in bringing these things across.
