Hi? ADVKf TO FARMERS.
Hoiiv i. Dttii Carter Gives Timely
Counsel tc Tillers of the Soil.
Editor County Record:?
As the poli.ieal pot has ceased to
tail and all is quiet "along the Potomac",
I warn to have a short talk
through The Record to my brother
i' farmers.
First, I wish to say that we are
4" people who are au easy prev for
agents of all classes to feed upon.
. Now, brothel farmers, sign no uotes
offered by ageuts; for any thing that
" jon need can be bought for one-half
the price the*e agents charge for it.
The Bering-machine that they offer
for $66 can be bought for $25; the
i *' afcel range that they ask from $69
. to $70 for can Ikj bought for $35 to
$40. Why theu pay that difference
merely because you can buy them
"ou time'? If that is it please examine
car (fully the notes and papers
you are signing and you will find
that you are giving iron-clad secuL
ritv. If you must have these things
you can borrow t he money on the
same securi ty aud save fifty per cent,
f Take the lightning rod man as he
goes to yon and tells you it will cost
about thus and so to rod your house
and when he gets through it's just
..about double what he said it would
be. And just read carefully the
note he ask3 you to sign and see
what yon are doing. The old adage
goes, ''while a man is poor, keep him
. poor", and that seems to be the motto
of agents generally, but it is
- high time that we farmers do pur
own thinking and act acordiugly.
Well, the year of 1904 is fast
drawing to a close and will soon be
a thing of the past, and what have
we done to better our condition . as
farmers?
Have we prepared ourselves with
better farm implements, stock, etc?
ft If not, we are not keeping pace with
the other avocations of life.
One thing I want to call your attention
to: that is, have you got a
sab-soil p.ow? If nbt, get one and
thoroughly prepare your land before
planting your next crop, and I will
assure yon that yon will not regret it.
When I was a boy and first commenced
pi nghing I was told not to
turn up the yellow soil, if so it
ruined the land; and lots of our
farmers still hold to that idea. But
experience has taught me differently.
Now I ha ve been using one of those
plows anc find the result most satisfactory.
You can't hurt your land
by deep ploughing; on the" contrary,
that ja w hat thd laud needs?1 borough
breaking of the soil before seeding,
then cultivate highly and the
yield will be decidedly better.
One? when the population of England
wiis becoming so dense it was
a serious question bow to get a better
yield from the soil and iu convention
discussing the matter Gladstone
used thei-e words:
"Plough deeper and make more".
This they did and profited accordingly
and the same advice will apply
, to ns?thoroughly drain your lands,
plough deeper, feed your land and
% the land will feed you.
And now, Mr Editor, lest I amuse
come of those old farmers who don't
believe ia deep ploughing, down in
"Possum Fork", I'll say no more at
this time.
With best wishes and kindest regarde
for you and yonr readers, I
P^'am, Respectfully.
