<*B 1-S South Brood Street, Atlanta.
Letter from Texas.
Millwood, Collins Cos., Tex , >
July 7tb, 1894 )
Editob Hebald :—As I am at leisure
at this time, I will give you a few'
more dots from the Lone Star State.
In my last letter I promised that, in
my next I would tell the people all
about the mode of farming on the
black lands of Texas, but before I do
that I will tell you something about
the prospects for a crop in this county
this year. For the past two or three
weeks it has been very dry in this
section, and the farmers began to look
very gloomy over the prospects for a
corn orop, but about 7 o’clock this
morning it began raining, and by 10
o’clock our people were blessed with
one of the best seasons that ever fell,
which was, no doubt, worth thousands
of dollars to the farmers of this and
adjoining counties.
Corn here is in full roasting ear,
and, without another drop of rain,
will average from forty to sixty bush
els per acre. Cotton will average
from knee to hip high, has been layed
by and is doing as well as heart could
wish.
The grain crop is being threshed.
Oats are turning out from fifty to
seventy-five bushels per acre an 1
wheat fifteen to twenty bushels. I
have been informed, though, that the
grain crop in Western Texas is com
paratively short.
Now for the mode of farming
First, we will take up stubble land.
As soon as this crop of grain has been
taken off the stubble will be turned
with a fourteen-inch sulky plow, drawn
by four good horses (those who have
not the large sulky plows, of course
will use nine and ten-inch two hoiv<
turning plows). After this stubble
has been turned and goes through the
winter freezes it is thoroughly pulver
ized and ready for planting. It is
then marked off with what we call a
marker, made on the slide order,
marking from three to four rows at a
time, and those marks, whether made
with a marker or plow, are followed
with a planter, and the crop is fin
iahed, so far as the preparation and
planting is concerned. Next, we will
take up stalk land, both corn and cot
ton. The first thing in the spring is
to get rid of the stalks. Those who
have stalk cutters hitch two horses to
them and cut them down. Those who
haven’t cutters take a large pole about
fourteen feet long, and fasten a chein
or rope to each end, and hitching two
horses to this they drive over the
rows, dragging down from three to
four rows at a time. After the stalks
have been dragged down they are
raked up with a rake, some ten or
twelve feet long, hitched to the hind
end of a wagoD, and then burned,
which leaves the land as clean as a
yard. After which we take a two
horse plow and throw up what we call
a box list in the middle. After ti e
listing is done we go back and burst
out the stalks with one furrow. Thus,
you see, the crop is prepared with
three furrows to the row, after which
we take the same pob', or drag, tbi t
the stalks were dragged down with
and dr?g off the tops of the beds, fo’-
lowing this with planters which dc
their own opening and covering, using
the same planter for both cotton and
corn. After the plant has come up it
is run around three or four times with
a double stock, which plows out the
middle, or else the row is straddled
with a cultivator, which also plows
oat the whole row. Thus a crop here
is prepared, planted and worked with
about the same number of times going
over to the row that it takes to pre
pare the land for planting in the old
Eastern States. Corn and cotton land
here are generally both prepared and
planted on the same plan. Corn is
never chopped but once and cotton
twice, as there is no crab grass to con
tend with. Cotton requires more
plowing than corn. New ground here
is managed quite different to any
where else I have ever been. Afte:
the ground has been cleared off it i*
broken and cross broken with a large
two horse Grubb plow, with a cutter
attached to the iron beam in front of
the plow. After it has been broken it
is brushed with a large brush, after
which it is laid off with a twe-horse
plow, following with a planter. After
this it requires but very little more
work, except to keep down the sprouts.
I have known cotton here on new
ground to make three-fourths of a
bale per acre without ever having any
thing done to it except run around
and chopped out one time.
In sowing grain here they turn the
grain under and brush it off with a
heavy brush, or else they turn the
land, then sow the grain and harrow
it in. The farmers here never sow
fall oats—they turn the oat stubble
under in the summer, and, if it is
anything like seasonable, the volun
teer oats make a splendid crop of
winter oats.
Gardens here are worked on about
the same plan that they are in the old
Eastern States, except that it takes
about half the work here and no
Txitxs* SI.OO A Tiae.
manuring at all. Sweet potatoes,
Irish potatoes and syrup cane all do
well here with but very little work.
Now, in conclusion, I wish to say
that I have been asked in private let
ters in regard to politics in this State,
in answer to which I wish to say that
the Democrats are on top by a large
majority. We held our primary elec
tion in this county on the 30th of
June, and nominated candidates for
county officers, from constable up to
distnet judge, and no one has a
shadow cf a doubt but what the nom
inees will all be elected, as we poll
about 8,000 in this county, about 7,-
000 of which are Democratic votes.
The Democrats in this and adjoin
ing counties are having large picnics
and Democratic rallies, at which the
Democratic principles are ably held
up and defended by noted speakers.
And before I close I wish to give you
people some idea of what it means to
have a picnic on the black lands of
Texas. On the 28th day of June we
had a picnic and a grand Democratic
rally at this place (Millwood), and
three young men gave $67.25 for the
exclusive right to sell iced drinks and
other refreshments on the grounds,
also for the right to sub-let ground!
for swings and other kinds of amuse
ments. They used 2,000 pounds of
ice, sold fifty cases of soda pop, ninety
pounds of candy, one-half dozen boxes
cigars, and cigarettes, smoking and
chewiDg tobacco accordingly, also
several boxes of chewing gum and
lemonade by the barrell, and took in
$55 on ice cream alone. At the close
of the day they paid up all expenses
and had a net profit of $lO3 80, which
gave them $34 60 each for their day’s
work. How is that for a Texas picnic ?
Success to The Hebald and good
people of old Georgia.

What and W'liat Not to Say.
Don’t say I kon’t feel good, for
feel well.
Don’t say these kind, but this
kind.
Don’t say not so good as, for not
as good as.
Don’t say a garment sets good,

Don’t say between three, but
among three.
Don’t say above eeveD, but more
than seven.
Don’t describe an unusual occur
rence as funny.
Don’t say the matter of him, but
the matter with him.
Lon’t say try an experiment, but
make.
Don’t say I have blacked my shoes,

Don’t speak of articles of diet as

Don’t say cunning for small, smart

acute.
Don’t say fix my gowD, fix this
room, but arrange my gown, the
room. The best English authorities
rarely use fix except to indicate sta
bility or permanence.
Two Great Days.
The teacher was instructing the
arithmetic class in history.
“On what day is Washington’s
birthday ?” she inquired.
“Twenty-second of February,” an
swered the class.
“And Independence day?”
“The fourth of July.”
“What is the difference between
the two days?”
This seemed to be a poser, and no
reply was forthcoming. Finally a
youngster who had been scribbling on
a slip of paper held up his hand.
“Good for you, Johnny,” said th®
teacher, encouragingly. “Now tell
us what the difference is between
these two of the greatest days in our
National history.”
‘ “Four months and twelve days,
ma’am,” and the teacher was shocked,
because she had forgotten there was
an arithmetic side of the question as
well as a history one.—Detroit Free
Press.
