Makes delicious hot biscuit, I griddle cakes* rolls and muffins. | The only baking Powder Made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar FARMING i?y C. i.. Wilson In Farmers Union Sun. _ I was appointed last meeting to > v *ite an essay on farming, though ?!? rhaps sonn? of you have forgotten >re than I ever knew about it. .Anyway, I Will give some of my ideas j.s to good and prolltable farming, of lllcll, for the last few year.-, will use a man to be looked upon with ? much honor as being a merchant, I wyer. doctor or most any other Ixeu, Why. bee an ae it takes as much uin nnd deep thinking to be n good riner as it does to be a lawyer or ? tetor, und nine times out of ten a i rmer's nharnoter is better than the ep.izens of the town, because lie sn't as much to Intlueuco him into b d nnd dlsrespectahle habits. Now. it i't all this triii-? So why can"! we . i be good and prolltable farmers by i -iiiu our brain a little more as to ; o soil and tin- heal way of getting -.ults from our land? .lust get out this obi way of farming ami try to ? able tin- yield on our land, which a easily In- done i:' we would only ? uly and try i' on ib.- right plan r in plant twenlj acres to make tell I es when we call lake tea acres id make tin- sane" >vlth less work. Hi- profit, and I am sill'i it WOllid more pleasure seeing ibe beauti crop grow I ban ii would be seeing rtorry crop on aii unprepared field, dch it would look like it had been .- 'niched up by the chickens. \'ow. my idea as to good fanning: st, Rood Implements and good stock work with. Wo should all have xl two-horse turn plows to bo used ' some occasions and don't leave ? the harrows, for I think hlllTOW flo< s as much good as (he deep I wing, for it your land Is plowed and is rough and cloddy the plants II not do :is well; bill If you plow ?)? ep ami barrow well, you have the 1. '.id where it will hold the moisture ? and the plant will have nothing prevent its rods from getting the vantage of nil the fertilizer. Ity il'^ep plowing in the preparation of our land, linrrowiii? well ami using ?nty of fertilizer, we can. in two or ?ee years, double our crop.-. In i>.ing fertilizer, the kind und rpinn ti'y should be necordiiig lo the soil, elter bind ami prepn rat/ion the ? ?re fertilizer will be required. sow. alter the land is well pre red und planted we should do away .th deep plowing, unless you plant ? ? ep the first time, before the roots ? vc readied any distance, but after 1'ien plow as (dinllOW as possible. S .allow plowing and as often as you . a is my Idea as t<? cultlvntliiK a i >p. Now. as to thinning of plants, for I inn sure we leave too much on t ?? grOUIUl, "specials cotton. Don't Iafraid to thin out and your rows ( flOOd distance apart. It the soil is ??ry rich they should be at least ii feet. Now. another great lUiS > ke we all make is by not sowing plough grain, if we would sow one i id of our land in grain, plant one il.lrd in cotton, ami one-third in , n. i think we would find it much ? ire prolltable, We could live at 1 ne. impl'OVO our land ami get it tier price for mir cotton, Which, I t -ink will i.e ibe only way that wo II ever raise high price cotton As p ;... we plant all eofioit we n <l . i ? expect a high in Ice, Another i pdltun! thing we fai'iUers do ma < aside;- as we should, and Hull i ntin; -eed; some will say Che kind of -ec,| Is as good as anot'ier. bill that , not true Km' good plalltlllg, seed (..iiits as much as fdiylhlltg else. the very beat sertd that suit- your I ,mi|. or keep trying or esperlmeut i i mi von do get th" besli We ., ||(| if we would linproVO our own ? ii by Roing over ib.- whole farm r,?1d Ketling Ibe very best stalks for ... ??(!.I 'ini unite sure it would pay ? ? oi us lo do thai. So. members ,.? i be\ Farmers I'nion, iusl wak? up : i| no to work ami BO ? what we can ,i . Others have done greril things, l why < rin'i w p? \'ow. in conclusion, I will say (hat ii ,o would plant more corn and )\, is. so"- more main ntul raise more ho ; ; ml cattle, ami planl lest? cot ton. we would find thai we sould live at home. Improve our land and clear more money. C. l- Wilson, [.aureus, Route No. ?;. March 27, I90J?. Shiloh Local 1'nion, No. 90. The Civic league. The Civic League.'
