SIX CROPS IN A
YEAR
(From The Tifton Gazette)
Mr. J. H. McHargue, of Crosland,
It as raised six crops on one acre of land
this year, and alt of the crops were
good ones.
He first sowed the acre in oats, which
were harvested in the spring, and the
land was planted in corn. The corn
rows were 7 feet apart, and between
each row of corn lie planted a row of
cotton The corn has been gathered,
and the yield was sixty bushels. He
has already picked 600 pounds of cotton
an thinks he is certain to get a Dale,
Sixty bushels of corns and a bale of
cotton to the acre after a crop of oats
is pretty good, but Mr. McHargue has
t hree more crops coming to him. When
tlie lontl was plowed last, he planted
groundpeas, and they promise a good
yield. The acre is near his house, and
Mr. MclJargue’s tuikeys and chickens
have grazed on it, and lie has a fine
crop of them almost ripe.
A crop of oats, a crop of corn, a crop
of cotton, a crop of peanuts, a crop of
chickens and a* crop of turkeys from
the same land is what he considers
some crops on south Georgia soil,

There is no way to make hog raising
profitable with scrub stock’ The first
thing to do is to get some pure-breds
of the kind you favor, and begin to
prepare to raise hogs, by first doing
some fencing and doing it right. There
is no way to make hog raising profit
able with one little dry pasture fenced.
Get three or four small fields fenced, so
as to have winter grazing, and for the
convenience of having a chance to shift
the hogs from one held to the other.
While they are gathering one crop you
can have another one growing. These
small fields will also be found very con
venient tc separate the herd as it is
necessary to have the fattening hogs
and shcats separated from the brood
sows, amt to have the male separated
from the brood sows. 8ome acr* lots
near the barn, with the right kind of
hog fence around them, well sodded in
Bermuda gruss will b§, found to be
very profitable. Into one of these lots
you can turn the male, so when it is
necessary to separate him from the herd
it will be no trouble to do it. Progres
