The farmer who has not up to now learned that the practice in our "" country of raising corn and corn fod der and pea vines pulled in the usual way for our stock fted is justly classed as a dullard. Man has been is styled a bundle of habits, and the uall corn feed" is one of the uufortunate bad habits of the farming man of this land heretofore and one apparently very difficult of cure. A Tennessee farmer odcc told mo that he could not sft'ord to raise corn to feed evtrj thing: that it costs too much. That is considered a better corn country than ours and if they cannot do so, how can wt 1 I have been as bard to learn the new way as "my other brethren" have been and like them 'tis only revolution influencing unalterable decrees that forces my reason to overthrow my prejudices and early habits. A few years ago, before the Wilson Tiriff bill in Cleveland's administration put the butcher's knife to our sheep industry, I kept a goodly flock ' and the next year after th* enactment of'the Wilson tatift' bill I had gotten back to thirty five bead. I obtained a few early ainber cane seed Oca anpaa /,f 4V?Q Itlllfl T HI. I\J ?MCbU* uny avivo v* ?uv <uw\* ? tended. It was only a very average piece of ground and a portion quite porr. It could under no circum ? .stances have made more tbau twenty bushels of corn on the entire two acre, and that without manure is a high estimate, I found. It was very thick in the hill but I did not thin it > at all. It only makes a smaller stalk and that is only better for the stock. P':. After it was planted it had only two plowings and at each plowing there were only two furrows to each row, - making only four furrows to each row after the plants came up. There 4 never was a hoe put in it at aDy time. On the 21st day of June I turned on it thirty-five sheep, thirty-two hogs and seven head of cattle. I feared to risk the cattle on it, having heard so much about its deadly pow "ers to kill cows and horses, but I knew the hog could bold 'its own 2 gaiast anything but starvation and he had a free and unlimited jurisdiction on the cane. The seven cows I fed well before putting them on and in two hours turned them and the sheep cff. In the afternoon I did likewise, but next morniDg I fed forage to the cows and then gave them and the sheep "a white man's dose'" with hogs and I never could see that either one of them felt sick or unwell. A gap was left down next to water, and they did eat, drink and 1 make merry with each other. They apparently were devastating the "whole fix'" at first but soon they went and eat over and over and over again. That two acres kept well and in fine fattening couditiou the stock of hogs, cows and sheep for seven weeks without additional feed excopt two milch cow8 the last two weeks had a little help of graiu feed. I leave any intelligent farmer to say if the two acres in corn would have done that. I am satisfied that a better policy would be to cut the cane and throw over to them, and better still if thrown on land that will be used for crop next year. It will greatly enrich it and to throw it over into fence corners and into the woods is sheer extravagance and thriftlessness. On an acre of cane thus feed there is several dollars of fine fertilizers, for acres elsewhere. An acre feed prudently and properly will carry three to four times the amount of stock that the same will in corn fed in the unsual way, and there is the usual costs and expenses in housing and j the losses attending. Corn when fed green to fattening and growing stock will go much further than i ?. C \ when fed in the manner we usually do. It is much more remunerative in the green state but for work stock i it is not so when fed in excess. There is more actual grain in cane than in 1 in the corn and the stock can use up < the stalks which for fattening stock 1 is worth more than the grain i3. For general stock feed on the farm corn and pea vines will not compare ; with the sorghum family and the ex- j perience of men has shown that for ] raising mules and horses colts and j for feeding to horses and mules not | < hard worked it is extiaordinary and j < for stock that is idle it is all that is ! j necessary, and for woik stock a por- !

It would greatly help to give some change of feed in dry grain, collard leaves, &c. i It is a good way to have some fences to cut off the patches into small parcels and turn the stock right on the ground, and then aD- j other patch, and so on as they eat off. The hog has some "gentlemanly" qualities aud prefers to eat as he pleases and when ho pleases and dou't care to be forced to be gorged at the discretion of an indolent, care- j less master who at times is negligent j of the hog's wishes and needs. With pindar8 I have less experience than with sorghum and still less with chufae, but cau give the experience of some reliable men of this and adjoining counties. Our laud will produce much more pindsrs per acre than corn and each bushel is more i valuablo for fattening than com, be- i sides the hog uses up all the half i matured aud faulty ones to good ad- j vantage and saves all the expense of i harvesting the crop. But like corn pindars are very concentrated and j ought to have other feeds along in j easy reach of the hog.

A patch j of green or dry peas in the same en- j closure is especially healthful. If j not in his own power to get it & little i energy from "the Boss" will greatly ; repay in giving him these additional j rations as he may need them and he i will be very grateful for this care, j The experiments of a neighboring j State is very instructive to the farm- ! J ! ers here. A patch of pindars, chufas j i and corn were tried. The land made 30 i bushels of corn per acre on the por- j tion planted in corn, but the pindars j and chufas the hogs gathered for j themselves and hence not measured, j 1 There was one quarter of an acre in : each. Four pigs, (half Berkshire in j i breed) were put on each for 4G days. I ' The gain from each parcel in 46 days < was in actual pork: On the pindars < 313 pounds; on chufas 148 pounds, : i and on corn 109 pounds.

The system is a positive cure for consumotion. that most insidious disease. and for all lung troubles and disorders complicated by loss of flesh, Coughs, Catarrh. Asthma, Bronchitis, etc. Thin. pale, weak pe >ple become fat and hearty by its use. The test is to try ;t. as much or more on chufas per acre and that will easily equal the purchasing power of two bales of cotton per acre when turned into bacon and that can be easily done on our lands. It will take tbreble of potatoes or chufas to equal one of corn meal, but more than three and even six or seven times as many poaods can be raised on an acre of either as corn. I have a friend in Orangebuig county who is a responsible man and progressive farmer, and he affirms to me that he picked last fall one row of chufas for seed and that an acre like it would have made 450 bushels. The land, he said, would have made 20 to 30 bushels of corn per acre. For years be has never fattened his hogs on corn at all, but on pindars. In 1898 he tried two and a half acres of chufas and he declares that they beat piudars badly and that with chufas or sorghum that corn is entirely out of his power by reason of expenses to fatten bis pork. With an acre of amber cane, one in pindars and one in chufas a farmer ought easily and without risk from first of June till Christmas raise and fatten from 1500 to 3500 pounds of pork if pigs are anyway thrifty by that time. If good land and pains be taken these estimates can be beaten. An acre of good land sown in September in rye will keep a cow and calf in great thrift from November at till May 1st with only a little ration of dry feed at night to balance the excess of green. It gives her variety and she will be grateful for it and it will repay handsomely. That will give all the milk and butter any family of ordinaly tize will want and need. In several years the cows that gives the milk and butter for ray family are kept in this way and I am only speaking from actual experience. Besides my wife sells a great deal of milk and butter and gives milk also to her chickens. Three or four acres of ordinary laud sown early in the fall in rye will keep all the calves and hogs necessary for a large family during the winter and then peas or sorghum era be put on it to fatten and carry j dd in the fall. Another "big itemM is the saving of the compost and the enriching of our lands by the continued assistance of stock on our faims. The farmer should sell but little feed of any kind but feed all to stock and get the wool, pork, beef, butter and compost in return. In this way we can sell our farm products at a high price and not be subjected to the "dreadful shylccks.'" Our own thriftlessness and non progressive modes are the worst "gold bugs and shylocks" the farmer will ever meet. These phantoms and nightmares are the hobbies on which our demagogues aud office j hunters ride and we furnish them in j ibnndance just as they are needed to seive their selfish ends. Ever -ince King Solomon's day the borrower is the servant of the lender. We net d not curse and abuse the merchant and the banker in the fall for our short sighteduess in bu-iness 1 I We buy what they e?iA affjid to sell hp(1 ibr-v >ell what we can't buy 1 iu justice to ourselves. The change on the face of political ; nature now makes it possible fur us ! to turn out thousands of acres of of gullied old fields iuto pastures for slier p at a remuueiative price. We cau now sell our old field grasses at high pi ices iu wool and uiuttou. L tnd6 that are so gullied and worn as to be useless for agriculture can be now made the most useful and pay- [ ing portions of our farms iu giviug I as money for wool and mutton and a j tine quality of fertilizer to raise the } drooping, disheartened condition of j the most of our farms. Much now { of our low lauds heretofore useless J can produce lice at a living price. J Oar fon fathers after the Revolutionary war with England had closed, took such an interest in sheep culture that a pair of Merino sheep would actually sell for $1,000 Xj\v we can get good wool and mutton sheep at from one dollar to five dollars per head, aud the children of these revolution graudsires will not buy nor keep them. It will be a long time before the .Vmeiican people will put another Grover Cleveland Congress in the capital or a Grover in the White House.

The people of South Carolina are waking up to the realities. When Senator McLauriu voted some protection votes he was published all over South Carolina as a "hateful Republican*' by Governor Evans and Senator Irby. Today they are numbered with the false notions of the dead pist and rest in a grave from which there will be no resurrection and where the wicked cease from troubling. The same hand that has laid away the last r< mains of Evans and Irby will at the proper time place by their sides other sickening and decaying bodies whose presence only tends to create disease and other deaths among the members of our industrial household. Let us get up and follow the cloudy, fiery pillars of progress and thrift, and not be content to live in the backwood wilderness. Duty to ourselves, to our country 'and to the world all demand that we shall leave Mt. Siuui aud move onward. We have camped there long enough.
