FORTY ACRES A5D A MULE,
(continoed.)
We left in oar lut the forty acre
end • male men the happy poeaea*
■or ef three boodred and titty dol
lar* (oa paper at least) iu money
or money’s worth—provisions. We
ny moceyV worth, beoaase the chief
objeets in life are to make some
thing to flil our stomachs or cover
oar hecks, so that if we have some
thing to eat we do not need much
money. Let us now examine the
different items that make op this
■am of money to see if we are jasti
•ed in oar estimate.
First as to cotton. We have pat
that crop at a thousand pounds to
the acre. We know that that is far
more than average crops of the coun
ty, bat not more or as mach as is
made by a great many farmers on
common pine land. Oar farm,
naturally below the average fertili
ty of the county makea it, aud more
witk a much less expenditure for
auuinre than we have recommend
ed. That eetimate will give us 20,
000 pounds. Deduct one-tweutietb
for toll for ginning, leaves 19,000;
the yield of lint from that, at 31
per cent, tbe average tarn oat, will
givewix thousand pounds—12 bales
of 600 pounds each, or coanting in
the bagging and ties, of 625 pounds
each; that at eight cents will
aoM>ant to $501.00
Bow easy it is to make this on
faper yon will say, bat why if it
can V done, the average of nar
conuty should be ss low asit'ist
Tbs answer is obvious. We are
-either in the A B G of agricultural
-knowledge and skill, or else do not
Apply what we know. With this
amount of cash for cotton and with
all oar provisions except flour, sa-J
gar aud coffee, made at home, with
r -ao«xiteuditore except for them aud
clothing, there will be a pretty good
balance foi taxes, ebareb and edu
cation, or to lay op for tbe fntare.
COHN.
The eetimate for corn is low
wooagb, though it is above the av
erage crop of tbe county. Our ex
perience is that land that is man
ured op to a thousand pounds of
cotton will, if planted iu corn tbe
next year, produce fifteen bushels
without any additional manure.
Tbe debris of the cotton crop with
tbe manure not taken up by it will
produce that certainly. The addi
tional manuring ought to bring it
np to twenty, aud add fifty dollars
loAhe gross proceeds of the farm.
* OATS.
So also with tbe oat crop. Tbir
t; bushels is a moderate estimate
for that under tbe same couditions
as tbe corn. Tbe estimated price
may be regarded as high, but when
yon bare it to buy, tbe freightage,
railage, stealage and other ages,
will bring tbe price up to a dollar
PKA8.
The estimate for the pea crop is
reasonable enough; five bushels to
tbe acre on tbe corn and oat laud
is what is made constantly. So
with potatoes, fodder and bay aud
- tbs cotton seed—all moderate eeli-
* mates. Tbe other products of tue
farm which are generally consum
ed by the family, we are net accus
tomed to estimate as money crops,
yet if they bad to be bought we
would find them so Tbe garden,
4t planted one-half in vegetables
and the other in bunch grapes,
Straw berries and raspberries, would
?be worth double wbat we have put
it at We could sell twenty-five
dollars worth of vegetables sod
fruit and have still enongh for
good sized family. So also with tbe
orchard, it is worth fifteen dollars
as a bog pasture, and that is wbat
it ought to be. In a small farm
hogs ought to be kept iu the or
ebardsad never allowed to go out
of it They are the only certain
preventive of tbe ravages of the
worm, and at tbe same time by root
ting cultivate the gronod and de
stroy tbe weeds.
The milk and batter necessary
for a family are cheap at forty dol
lars. ▲ oow is a very poor one that
will not give milk enongh to make
two pounds of batter a week and
raiM a calf; tbe skimmed milk, if
not conenmed by tbe family, it
worth for bog food fifteen or twen
ty dollars n year and toons who
lovesdabber and battermilk, a good
deal more.
The one acre of Bermuda
will hasp the oow from April to No-
ramber, and the other note in win
ter pastare, followed by peas for
hay will feed her the balance of the
year. The grass pastare oagbt also
to feed the male daring the time it
la not working, but to do this it will
have to bs manured every year. The
beat manors for it will be the cow
horse-lot, hauled on la
and
harrowed. TMb will perhaps be the
best use tor your stable manure, as
yon will avoid spreading tbe Ber
muda over tbe balance of tbe farm.
It sometiu.es passes through tbe
stomach of the animal without los
ing its vitality, and when it once
gets hold oo your cultivated land
is hard to get rid of. Tbe poultry,
chickens and turkeys, and pork, if
sold instead of being eaten, would
bring more than we have pat them
at. We see then that by this eeti
mate, a comfortable support for an
average family can be bad from
forty acres and a male. Tbat-eac-
cess in farming does not depend
upon tbe quantity of land we run
over bat upon tbe proper cultiva
tion of a few acres, and it were for
tunate for us and tbe country it we
were limited to a few acres. An
honest, bard working, God fearing
nation of snfhll f&nners is wbat we
want iu this country and not a sys
tem of landlord and tenant to
which we are fast drilling.
Let as now examine tbe point
whether cotton can be made at
eight cents. The part of the expen
diture on tbe farm properly charge
able to the cotton crop is $400, and
the receipts of the same $564, leav
ing a balance ot 9164 if sold at
eight cents, or $8.20 an acre, or not
counting the seed but only the lint,
$5.20 an acre. Or if we estimate
that the 6,000 pounds of lint costs
as $400, that will make the cost ot
each pound 6| cents and tbe profit
li cents a pound. This is but a
small affair you perhaps would say,
but it shows tbat tbe common no
tion that we are planting cotton at
s loss every year, if true, should nut
be so and tbat tbe tault is in our
selves.
We do not pretend to say that
any one can buy a small tract of
land, famish it properly for work,
and pay for in one or two years.
The time has passed for that, but
with a small capital to start with,
or wjth sufficient credit to get ’iroe
to pay for it, one Cfii buy and work
it out with cotton even at eight
cents. It will require work, and
work with knowledge, untiring and
dose economy, but it can be done.
The second year you will start
with your provisions, horse and cow
food and part of your manure in ti e
cotton seed. You need not buy so
mnchcoUon seed meal, though vre I
think that the same amount in ad
dition to the cotton seed will raise
your production to 1,200 or 1,500
pounds of cottou, twenty bushels
of corn and forty bushels of oats.
Wbeu you reach that point you are
in a fair road to a fortune, made by
honest hard work.
