Ko, be allowed them to BOTT the beat land ho had, and theo to tarait good and deep with a good amount of cotton seed and acid to the acre, and then in the spring he en couraged them in getting nitrate of eoda for that grain. Now, Uro. Stribling, as an excuse for soi sowing wheat last fal?, jost listen at that old cotton farmer coming at os with that old "gag' that bo can buy his ?our cheaper than he can raise it. Now wouldn't that give the man that wants to live at home the ''jim j arnot" Now, here is where we contend that Casey is winner in this matter. It i from some unknown cause flour should I go to eight or nine dollars per barrel it will not hurt this man, for he has his already at home. And there sgain he will get another crop from that lend, a crop of pea-vine hay and at the same time leave his land in a higher State of cultivation than when he started. ABU last but not least there will not have to be an inspector standing around to see whether Casey's flour io pure or not. So you see the "pint?" Here, you old fanners that have bean baying that "potted" or rotted ham, it really is, instead of raising good old streaked ham at home, can now con tent yourselves with che thought that you've been eating something that wasn't fit to feed a decent bird do?. But then 1 guess it was alright-it was pat ap in a nice little red box and costa "nick." Say, Bro. Stribling, 1 was up in your country laut week and it seems that some of your farmers are trying that corn stunting plan this time. I believe they went the whole hog, for it looks like they planted stunted seed orr ! stunted fand, that it came up stunted, will be laid by stunted, ?nd we very much fear will be gathered stunted. Take in your lip, lam not talking about yonr crop.
