In May of this year Capt. Whitaker came into possession of the farm, a few miles from town on the Ehrhardt road. It was too late to plant the or dinary crops of cotton, corn, etc., and the owner was too busily engaged in his school duties to think of anything else to plant but peas. He purchased -80 bushels of cow peas, and planted them broadcast entirely by himself, after school closed, beginning on June 3. It required 28 days to complete t?ie planting. J Not a single farm animal was used on the plantation this year. He began his farming operations by buying a modem farm tractor and appliances. He first broke up the land with turn ° plows pulled by the tractor, and then planted the peas with a grain drill, also pulled by the tractor. The pea vines' are unusually fine, and Capt. Whitaker is reaping about three- fourths of a ton of fine hay to the acre. A week or ten days ago he began harvesting the crop, again using his tractor to pull the mowing machinery. He has no hope of being able to har vest the entire acreage, and has de cided to gather the hay from about 100 acres, allowing the remainder to go to seed and gather the peas. As soon as the hundred acres are gathered, baled and sold or stored away, the land will' be immediately turned under by tractor for from 75 Is Your Ambition For YOUR CHILDREN?

His land is now in far better shape than when he began in June, as peas enrich the soil. With ,the exception of employing la- o borers to haul the peavine hay from < | the fields, he has had absolutely no assistance in planting and harvesting the great fields of hay.
