TCrawf ord, of WayiiesviUe, Vwtd.'Has.'ben'in attendance upon the sittings of the Supreme Court this week, paid a visit of inspection to the now famous ;; farm of - Mr. James F. Batts down below Garner in Wake county: J Mr; Batts, it will be remembered, is the enterpris ing farmer who recently harvest ed two hundred and twenty-six id two-thirds bushels of corn on one" acre of land. Speaking of the trip yesterday Mr. Shipman said:'---;-'-". ' ' 'I had ' seen the report of Mr. Batts' unusual yield,but am free to confess that I could not con ceive it possible to grow so much corn on. one: acre oi ,grouna. But when Mr. Batts produced in evidence a stalk with ten ears on it and a number of others con taining from three to five ears my skepticism disappeared like dew before the morning sun You see I had been , accustomed to seeing only one, two and very rarely three ears on a stalk and anyone who has not seen the Batts' variety '. of corn cannot easily be led to realize how he could have possibly accomplished a result so wonderful. ' The man ner in which it was done, and the clarity and directness of Mr. Batts' explanation of the process convinces me that his claim is fully sustained by undisputable evidence! Not only has he suc ceeded in gratifying his own am bition, he has gone a long way towards removing that class of farming . which too often ' results in not more than a scant living. "It is not to be expected, of course, that Mr. Batts' record is to be equalled, in a general wayt tut it does seem that the average should be twenty-five to; forty bushels, instead of the fiprure that is-now frequently below ; ten bushels to the acre. . Mr. Batts' stalfc of .ten ears- is,? cdmi ttedly, an., exception, but his claim bf four ears to the stalk is certainly well "sustained by actual results. Seeing is believing." Mr. Crawford expressed him self as being equally pleased and surprised .with the visit and says he is no longer "from Missouri" on the - question of Mr. Batts having made good his . claim in corn growing, bo strong is nis faith in the Batts'5lvariety Mr. Crawford invested liberally in it arid proposes to test its merits on his farm in Haywood county next year. Mr. Shipman forwarded a package to his father in Hen derson county, so it appears that the Wake farmer finds little dif ficulty in disposing of his pro ducts and may soon be furnish3 ing seed-corn for the entire State Certain it is that he has beaten the world's record on his acre this vp.ar. ' ' -, v " Mr. urawiorq . says inat more tiroffress is beinsr made in agri culture in Western Norih Carolina than ever before, and the price of agricultural land has steadily increased. Mr. Crawford says that the apple crop in Western North Carolina is bringing big money in his section, i "At least $100,000 has come 4nto Haywood county this year from its apple crbpT The 'farmers' ae :'makirig money, too, on raising stock. There has been wonderful im- Tirrtvpmpnt m stock raisin sr in Western North Carolina. The people" are replacing the old sort of cattle with the belt and are shipping train loads of fine beef cattle to the markets. MRS. J.
