FARMING AS A BUSINESS
Practical Suggestion on the Pos
sibilities of a Two-Horse Farm.
Southern Cultivator.
At the Farmers' Convention
held in Augusta, Ga., on the loth
of February I was invited, by
gentleman who is deeply ioterest
ed in the agriculture of the State
to write for the press a short arti
cle on the possibilities of a two
horse farm in Georgia. At first
thought that seemed^to be an easy
task, but after a little study the
matter presents itself in 6uch
magnitude and variety of phases
as to make it almost impossible to
treat the subject intelligently in
very short space. I have there
fore concluded to discuss it only
as related to the capabilities of the
ordinary two-horse farm and in
methods as to such crops as are
^generally grown by the farmers of
this section, and I shall write less
for instruction to these already en
gaged in farming here than for in
formation to those who may desire
to cast i*heir lot among us and en
joy with us the munificent gifts of
soil, and climate, which are un
surpassed by any other country on
the globe.
In the beginning I shall lay
down two or three propositions,
and when they are admitted as
true, for I shall not consume your
valuable space in attempting to
prove them, we will begin to con
sider the subject in its practical
bearings, and I shall confine my
self to what has already been at
tained on many farms and can be
accomplished by every man of
average enterprise and ability :
1st. For successful farming the
farmer must either own the land
or have a continual lease upon it.
I confidently believe the terrible
famine in Russia one year ago and
again at the present time is the
legitimate result of their system
of farming.
2d. Thc first object of the farmer
is to raise a comfortable living for
himself and family.
3{l~HrD" ?"vf r>1-ijrinf io conf?n.
ually to increase the value and
productiveness of his soil.
As the chemist must have his
laboratory supplied with the nec
essary arts and appliances of his
profession if he wishes to conduct
his researches in a satisfactory and
profitable manner, so must the
farmer be supplied with the tools
and implements which are neces
sary to the economic and success
ful prosecution ^f his farm work.
With tnese provided for, we are
now ready for tlae apportionment
of stock and land.
A two-horse farm conducted on
the intensive plan will require
fifty acres of arable land of fairly
good quality, exclusive of pastures
and meadows. Of this, two acres
should be set apart for kitchen
garden and truck patch, which
should at once be brought up to a
high state of cultivation by very
liberal manuring. The remaining
forty-eight acres should be sub
divided into four equal parts and
a continuous system of four years
rotation practiced upon it as fol
lows : 12 acres oats, 12 acres corn
and peas, and 24 acres cotton. In
the rotation corn should always
follow cotton, cotton follow cotton
and oats, and oats follow corn. In
addition to the above, peas should
always be sown broadcast upon oat
stubble just as soon as the oats
are taken off; it would also be
well if the cotton land was sown
in rye at the last plowing of the
cotton in July or August.
The crops should receive an an
nual minimum application of cot
ton seed meal and acid phosphate
am follows : Corn, 200 lbs per acre ;
oats, 300 pounds per acre; cotton,
300 lbs per acre; peas in the corn,
100 lbs per acre ; peas after oats,
200 lbs per acre. Allowing 1,000
lbs per acre for the truck patch,
this will give ns a total of 18,800
pounds, costing at present prices
about $190. From this crop we
may reasonably expect 15 bales of
cotton, worth at present prices
$660; 450 bushels of cotton seed,
worth $135 ; 240 bushels of corn,
worth $144; 480 bushels of oats,
worth, $240; 72 bushels of peas,
worth $43.20 ; 24 tons of pea vine
hay, worth $288, or a^ total of
$1,510.20. The cost of working
this crop will depend upon the
farmer. He and his sons can work
it, or he can work it by hiring two
hands at a cost of $200 and rations,
and he and the two hands can do
all the work required in making
and gathering the crop.
The foregoing estimate is rea
sonable and moderate, and exam
pies can be found of even gres
in probably every county in
State. I asked Major Ryals,
Chatham county, how much cot'
he thought he could make nm
his system of truck farming, a
his reply was, "probably five ba
per acre."
Of the two acres set apart a
truck patch, one-half acre shoi
be devoted to a kitchen gardi
from which a generous supply
wholesome vegetables iucludi
small fruits with green corn i
six months of the year, and a ni
cabbage every day for more, th
ton months of the year. Half ;
acre should be given to sweet p
tatoes from which 75 bushels ci
be easily gathered, if planted
Georgia yams, and double th
quantity if planted in some of tl
more prolific but less d?sirai
varieties. The remaining ac
mould be devoted to soiling ai
?own in a succession of crops, sue
ts rye, barley, wheat, lucern
killed corn, etc., and if made vei
.ich will produce food sufficient 1
?upply the two horses and a co
vith one-half of their necessar
.ations from May to Novembe
Che cultivation of this crop wi
equire less than two-thirds of th
ime of the two horses kept upo
he farm, and the farmer, if h
ikes, can add five to ten acres i.
.11 'orchard, in which he can plan
?eas and chufas for fattening hi
wn pork, and some to sell. H
au have peas ready to turn hi
logs into by the first of August
nd have them till Christmas. H
eed only have for his motto, "D<
lothing or do your best," and al
hat I have portrayed can be easil]
ccompiished. A pair of gooc
nares can be used for cultivating
be farm and from each of these i
mle colt can be added to th?
early revenue of the farm, which
t three years old will cost not ex
eeding $50 and will bring in the
?arket from $80 to $125.
The farmer should also keep
wo or three good cows ; these wil]
upply his table with an abund
ncerorr uei ?oiou? --?tr*w?-snur i^u t? ici j
'ith a surplus tor market, and
lways at good prices. Under the
ystem of farming here laid down
he soil will not only maintain ita
roductiveness, but supplemented
y such manure as the former will
e able to save, by judicious care
nd diligence, will gradually ini
rove in fertility and there will be
, consequent improvement in
rops. Such lands can now be
.ought for $10 to $12 per acre, and
, cordial welcome awaits every
amily of good moral character.
I clo not by any means contend
hat this is the system best adapt
(d to the capacity and tastes of
?very man. Some may prefer a
ew acres in tobacco, or a portion
>f this crop in broom com or in
?ugar cane for syrup making, in
ieu of a part of the cotton crop,
jome others may prefer dairying
n some or all of it3 branches. To
;uch I know of no section that
?ffers greater advantages. Red
?lover, lucerne, timothy, red top
>rchard and Texas blue grass, all
lo remarkably well, and, with the
exception of timothy, I have them
ill growing on my farm to-day.
This is the home ot the Ber
nuda grass, which furnishes most
?xcellent grazing for seven months
in the year, and yields from two
to seven tons of excellent hay per
icre.
All of the small fruits do well
hero. Peaches, apricots, plums,
apples, pears, grapes, figs, all
flourish in this section, and I have
never known a failure of the
Scuppemoog grape. Watermelone
can be raised in abundance dur
ing the whole summer, and canta
loupes . for the first half of the
summer. In fact all fruits do
well except those especinlly in
digenous to a tropical or very
northern climate. Where else will
you find a section so favored, with
land so cheap, with climate unsur
passed, with water as pure as the
dews from heaven, with a people
noble, generous, brave, and hospit
able, with a country free from epi
demics and infectuous diseases,
with its forests and fields abound
ing with small game, and its
streams with fishes? It certainly
needs only time for its people to
adapt themselves to the new order
of things, to become one of the
most flourishing and prosperous
countries under the sun.

Two Old-Time Love Letters.
In an old book, dated 1820 there
is says, the People's Companion,
the following very curious love
epistle. It affords an admirable
play upon v/ords :
"Madame-Most worthy of ad
miration. After long considera
tion and much meditation on the
great repulation you possess in the
nation, I have a strong inclination
to become your relation. OL your
approbation of this declaration, I
shall make preparation to remove
my situation to a more convenient
station, to profess my admiration,
and if such oblation is worthy of
observation and can obtain com
miseration it will be an aggrandi
zation beyond all calculation of
the joy and exaltation of yours.
"SANS DISSIMULATION."
The following is ,the still more
curious answer.
"Sir-I perused your oration
with much deliberation at the
great infatuation of your imagina
tion to such veneration on so slight
a foundation. But after examina
tion and much serious contempla
tion I supposed your animation
was the fruit of recreation or had
sprung from ostentation to display
your education by an odd enumera
tion, or rather multiplication, of
words of the same termination,
though of great variation in their
respective signification. Now,
without disputation, your laborious
application in so tedious an
Dccupation deserves commendation
ind, thinking imitation a sufficient
gratification, I am, without
hesitation, yours,
MARY MODERATION."

i'orkville Enquirer.
About three years ago, The
Enquirer described the method
idopted by Mr. W. S. Willkerson,
)f Hickory Grove, to preserve his
lands from the wasting action of
?vater after rains. It will be re
membered by some of our readers
that the lands in question were
lescribed as quite rocky and very
rpjnnB^r' -r --~~f?4?
;he idea of utilizing the rocks,
vhich were in the way. of agricul
tural implements, to build long
lams across some of the depres
jions in his fields. While ridding the
fields of the rocks, he thought also
to'check the waste of soil leached
mt of his fields by the rains. The
idea has worked to perfection, and
Mr. Wilkerssn has reached that
point where he is beginning to
consider the rocks, once looked
upon as a nuisance, as worth a
great deal more even than the
trouble of moving them from one
place to another. In two or three
instances the dams have reached
a height of about four feet. On the
lower sides of the dams, are the
disappearing remains of the once
deep gullies that had been fur
rowed out by the unchecked fresh
ets, and ?n the apper sides level
with the top walls, are deep de
posits of the richest sediment,
which would have otherwise been
carried off down the gully into the
branch and thence to the creek
and river. In the meantime Mr.
Wilkerson continues to plaster the
large field above the dams with
stable manure, muck and other
fertilizers, confident that there
can be no appreciable waste, and
in a few yours more the whole
farm, which came into his pos
session worn out and almost
barren, promises to bo as fertile
and productive even as the rich
river bottoms only 8bout two
mileB away.
It may be hard and difficult for
you to live within your means;
but, if you are an honest man,
you must do it. To spend more
money than you make is to open
the way to untold troubles, and to
insure the fi?al rum of your re?
putation and character. For no
reason-not to gratify your own
taste, nor lo please your family,
nor help even a usefull charity,
should you adopt a policy so
fraught with evil consequences.
After all, the people who are com
pelled to practice the moBt rigid
economy get as much good out of
life as anybody else "Plain living
and high thinking often go to
gether." To be able to do without
luxuries is better than to have
them.-Nashville Advocate.

First Families.
Thc Idea
If there is anything we pride,
ourselves upon in this country, it
is our first families.
Every town has its first families,
but their importance depends on
their location.
The first families in Boston, for
instance, are very blue-blooded
indeed, for some of them know
who their grandfather was and
boast of him,' They acknowledge
that Springfield has first families,
but allude to them as highly re
spectable people, and the Spring
field aristocrats in turn mention
the first families of Sapville ai
decent sort of country folks.
You will see that first family is
rather hard to determine.
First families usually have a
niggei and a coat of arms ; but
they often object to a too diligent
examination of the family tree
as some times ancestors are found
hanging to it, and the coat of
arms turns out to be a coat with
out arms, or what the vulgar
second and third families call a
vest.
The same standard cf first
family ism is not applfcable to all
places. Mr. Beans, of Boston
dated his family from 1620. when'
his ancestor came over in May
flower, the ancestor having been
the ship's cook. Mr. Lardley, of
Chicago, goes back to the medieval
ages before the fire, and is not
familiars with the name of his
grandfather. Mr. Hufter of Denver
is an aristocrat from way back and
his father carried his ?fortune and
family portraits into Denver in|r
a wheelbarrow in the misty days
of 1874.
A knowledge of ono's grandsire
can hardly be the standard, for

We

up. The bent way is to say you
are one and go around blowing
about it. Your neighbors will
probably call you a fool for eight
or ten years, and then end be

family in good standing.
There's McGiggles, now. Hes a
first family. McGiggles went to
school with me, and wore pants
with L. S. and bay windows on
them, for his father carried tie hod
and drank tod.
I was sort of stuck up in those
days and become book-keejer in
a hardware store, while Mctiggle,
drove a grocery wagon. He went
into the business later for hmself
and made slathers of monejin the
barrel business. He gave up his
barrels, joined the church,oarried
a deacon's daughter, anc struck
out to be a first family, an he got
there with both feet. Mcuggles is
high-toned now, but still e notices

I dont know that I WI ever go
in for being a first faiily man,
but perhaps I will if Idon't join

Courtship in Georgia.
When a Georgia farmer found
out that nis son John was sparking
a certain farmer's daughter for a
year or more without settling any
question, he called him out behind
the stack and said :
"John, do you love Susan
Tucker?"
PI guess I do, dad."
"And does she love you?"
] "That's what I duno, dad, and
Fm afraid to ask her."
"Well, you'd better throw out a
few hints to-night and find out.
It's no uso wearing out boot
leather unless you are going to
marry her."
.That night at 10 o'clock John
came home a wreck. His face was
??1 scratched up and his ear was
bleeding, his hat gone and his
back covered with mud.
. "John, John ! what on earth is
the matter with you?" exclaimed
the man, laying down his paper.
!' "Bin over to Tucker's," was the
reply "And-and-and I threw
but a few hints to Susan."
"What kind o' hints?"
"Why, I told her that I'd been
hoofing it two miles four nights a
week for the last two years to set
up with her while she chewed
jgnm and sung through her nose,
and now I reckoned it was time
fox her to brush her teeth and
darn her stockings, cure the bile
on her chin and tell the folks
we're engaged."
; "And her father bounced you?"
. "No, dad, no; there's where I
am consoled. It took the whole
family, including Susan, two
hired men and three dogs, and
then I wasn't more'n half licked.
I guess we moved on 'em too soon,
dad-I guess it was'nt quite time
to throw out hints."

Harper's Weekly.] g
ILLUSTRATED.
HARPER'S WEEKLY is acknowledged
as standing first among illustrated
weekly periodicals in America. It oc
cupies a place between that ?f the
hurried daily paper and that of the
less timely monthly magazine. It in
cludes both literature and news, and
presents with equal force and felicity
the real events of current history and
the imaginative themes of fiction. On
account of its very complete series of
illustrations of the World's Fair, it
will be not only the best guide to the
great Exposition, but also its best
souvenir. Every public event of gen
eral interest will be fully illustrated
in its pages. Its contributions being
from the best writers and artists in
this country, it will continue to excel
in literature, news, and illustrations,
all other publications of its class.
