The writer enjoyed the privi lege a few days ago of visiting the homo of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Wal ton , than which there is no more delightful place in the county to visit. We walked with Mr. Walton Dver his fertile fields and viewed bis magnificent crops.-His five acre field of corn about which much bas been said is a remark able sight. It was planted, ferti lized and cultivated after the Wil liamson method and will make seventy-five bushels per acre. Alongside this fine corn is a field of cotton equally as fiue. The field contains sixteen acres ard Mr. Walton has already ginued fifteen bales from it, and will get ten or twelve more. He expected to get thirty bales from the sixteen acres but, like everybody's cotton, it was cut short by the drought. Mr. Walton not only knows how to have the soil fertilized and tilled to tho best possible advantage but be is a good manager also. Nearly everything that is consumed on the farm is produced at home. Mr. Walton says he never bought but two sacks of corn in his life and that , he sold fodder to get the money with which to buy it. Very few farmers in the county can show such a record.
