So I ve has the scare be t'Otne that some land owners are will ing to sell fa 1111 lauds for less than they" could have received two years ttgo and some IV w folks who have money lonacd 011 farms are talking about wanting to call In their Kwtns on account of the boll Weevil, basing their action on the ground that the val ue of the land will fall ibclow the face, of the loan when the |>e?t comes. All of which in some ways Is vcr.\ xood. We like to see our farmers stirr ed lip. Anything In the world that makes thiMU realize that then* Is somi?> ihlng more to farming than planting cotton Is worth while. The boll w<>e' v 1 1 may not be an unmixed evil. . Hut. our good friends iml^t uut luiui rhctr ticrnts." Wlicn you ?<> t'? ? ulvinir away your land, it shows y/ai are not worthy of your land. Over one thousand years ago this old proverb came lnl<> being: "Keep vour land and y??tir ls*iid will keep you." It is as true now as It was then, as It had been a thousand ycar.s before that and as it will be a thousand yea r* -from now* nnd then Homo.

However. the hens should not always receive tHc blame. I localise, in many instances, they do not receive the food product*) from which they can manufacture eggs. The K tension Division of i'leiusou <Villc)tfe has been rccomme'mHng an egg mash containing one-third by weight of inline, bright cotton seed meal and the ycmalulng two-thirds to consist of wpial parts of corumeal. I wheat shorts ami ground oats, This mash ,1s a satisfactory food to make eggs, and i( is kept dry before the hens in ii hopper or box constantly. Then a mixture of whole grains Is ?scattered hi litter twice dally to force I he liens to exercise. For those who cannot obtain the ingredients to mix the above mash, it Is possible to prescribe a simpler method of feeding hens for eggs that w ill give satisfactory . results. Buy a few bushels of cow pea's. Make a mix ture of 10 pounds wj^le or eniulwd cow j was and 60 pounds of whatever other whole grains you are now feed ing. A formula we have used (hut others are equally koo<1. provided the eowfieas are lo pounds) Is: CtowiKMis, ?IP pounds, corn or cracked <v?rn, 30 IMiunds, cane seed, 20 pounds, and wheat to i>oiuuls. Feed this mixture liberally twice dally In litter and do not give the hens any npish at all. You will need only grouijd oyster shells, broken plaster, or grotlnd limestone to supply the lime t\?r making the shell Keep the lime product in a box where the hens can eat it constantly. And last, but/ 'not least, keep a bucket of fresh .waiter before the layers, as eggs eopta'ln (15 per cent, of water.

There Is no doubt that the west tier man tribe* as late as the campaign of Caesar In (Jaul used only the shaggy pony. It is said in cavalry actions they held it disgraceful and slothful to use any kind of saddle, and Instead of charging In squadrons they dismounted and fought on foot As far as England is concerned the art of riding seems to have been intro duced by the Normans.
