Science on the Farm.
The AsheyUle Citizen indis
posed to felicitate the farmers of
Buncombe County upon the com
mendable degree of interest
they arc manifesting in the State
Farm at Swannanoa. The Citi
zen regards it as a good token
that the farmers are taking
kindly to scietific methods, This
disposition on part of the far
mers to attend "school" under
the demonstrators has been hav
ing fine results and this has been
apparent in the conditions of the
farms today. But for the im
proved methods in preparing
the soil and in cultivation of the
crops, there are few farms in the
State that would not have been
"burned up" by the dry weather
which has been prevailing. Set1
ediific farming prepares the
crops against a drought, and the
experience of the progressive
farmers is just now proving an
object lesson and the most prac
tical sort of a vindication of
science on the farm. Charlotte

Catawba County's Bigest Problem.
WhaVs the vital issue with the
people of Catawba county? I
lay down the proposition and
invite others to discuss it through
the coluins of the county papers
wucrever mere are two or
three gathered together," that
rural education is the bietrest
problem before the people of
Catawba county today. Whj?
Education is ever a vital issue.
The public schools, to a very
large extent, would be the lives
and thoughts of the boys and
girls who will be the citizens of
tomorrow, Tbe rural schools
should help to prepare boys to
become good farmers, and girls
to become good housekeepers.
If this splendid thing called
democratic education means any
thing to us, it ought to mean
that we are to use the public
school, in every way possible, to
make good and efficient citizens
of these boys and girls who will
be the men and women of Cataw
ba county ten and twenty years
hence,
Bat you ask, what is a good
and efficient citizen? Have vou
ever asked 3 ourself that ques
tion? To be soecinc, what is a
good farmer? How will this
definition do? He is a mam (1)
who will make a good liying
from the soil; (2) who helps to
make his community a better
place in which to liver(3) who
gives his children an opportunity
to make the most of themselves;
(4) and who leaves his farm bet
ter than he found it. Of course
there are other definitions of a
good farmer, but I bplieve this
one covers the cronnd fairJv
well.
Fundamental to all man's acti
vities are those by which he
gains food, clothing and shelter.
Farmers spend 90 or 95 per cent
of their employed time plowing,
hauling, digging ditches, har
vesting, etc. The other 5 or 10
per cent of their time they spend
going to church, reading, dis
cussing politics and mingling
with their neighbors. So it is
easy to see that the primary
issue with the average farmer is
that of making the daily bread,
and having a surplus left with
which to buy and enjoy the finer
and higher things that modern I things that are far away, but
life affords. The more he can l'ttle about the common interest
produce on his farm, the more!iQS things all around them; they
prosperous will he be, and the read much about the glare, the
more advantages will his chil- glimmer and the wild rush of the
dren have city, but little about the beauti

and happier.
Mr. Farmer, suppose that you
can make two blades oE grass
grow where one has been grow -

grow where five have been grow-
ing; or to make my proposition
very concrete, suppose that in
Catawba county, we were grow-

churches, better roads, and more

and such
like. With plenty of means
the
farmers of Catawba county can
wonderful things. Bet-
ter farming is thesolution of the
nMam
livuitui. -
But jou say again,
"Yoder,
' what are you talking about any
i wav? 1 thought you started out
to talk abou: education." I did:
and I haye been real close to my
subject. It is the business of
the country schools of Catawba
county to help train these boys
and young men who will be our
farmers tomorrow, so that they
can make 28 bushels of corn to
tbe acre instead of 14, and 16
bushels of wheat to the acre in
stead of 8. Onr country schools
should helD these boys and
young men to become scientific
and business-like farmers. They
should teach them that farming
is a high and dignified calling,
and that there is far more honor
ia being a good farmer, than a
poor preacher, a jick leg lawyer,
or a quack doctor. Ninety per
cent of the bnys who attend the
rural schools become farmers.
Therefore, the course of study,
the attitude of the teacher and
the atmosphere of the school
room should be such as to direct
the attention of the boys toward
those things that will always be
a part of this everyday life and
to imspire in those days a love
and enthusiasm for the open
country. They should be taught
that the soil is our most sacred
gift and that it is noble work to
care for it with diligent bands.
They should be taught to see the
beauty iu flowers, trees, and
landcapes, and feel the thrill of
songbirds, rippling streams, and
the living things of nature all
about them.
Nor would we forget the girls.
Their training is just as essential
as that of the boys. They must
be taught the simple and ele
mentary principles of scientific
cookinu and home making. They
must learn about the new and
modern , conveniences that will
1 1 nV ari f V e Kn ? ana aF fl-ifl fa
woman, and relieve her from a
life of endless toil and drudgery
That is a part of what rural
education should be. It should
be hitched up real close to the
everyday life of the people and
yonder on the farms. Has it
been this way? What ideas and
training have our country boys
and girls been receiving from
our country schools? Their
books tell them much about the
ful things of field, wood and
ate o hundred ways in which our
country scnoois ao not tram
boys and girls for liying on tne
farms.

Crimson Clover.
To the Farmers of Piedmont
and Western North Carolina:
We want 5,000 acres of crim
son clover in each of the coun
ties in our section of the State.
We want to start this work early
in the s8 son so there will be
plenty of time to make the best
preparation and get the . seed
sowd in time. See your County
Agent and have him order Far
mers' Bulletins Nos. 550 and 579
at once so you may hava at band
all the needed information.
The land should be well pre
pared some time before seeding
and the seeding or sowing should
be done between the middle of
August and the middle of Sep
tember, If your soil has not
had crimson clover on it before,
use some sort of inoculating
material at seeding time; either
soil from a clover field or artifi
cial culture.
Crimson clover makes good
pasturage while it lasts, and
also makes good hay and is a
good fertilizer. It is line for
grazing cattle, hogs, and chick
ens in early spring. It will in
crease the corn from one-third
to one-half, and is cheaper than
commercial fertilizer. When the
crop will make one ton of dry
hay per acre it will add about as
much nitrogen per acre as a ton
of 2-8-2 fertilizer. On medium
soils about 60 per cent of this
nitrogen comes from the atmos
phere and costs you nothing.
We are starting a campaign to
get 1,000 farmers in every coun
ty to sow fi ve acres of crimson
clover this fall, We want vou
to join the club. It is going to
take about 1,200 busheis of seed
for the 5,000 acres. It is time to
see about getting yoar seed.
Clnb with your neighbors and
place tbe order before July 1st,
and have it shipped as soon as
possible. It would be a beauti
ful sight for travelers passing
through the State next May to
see the crimson fields. It would
be a splendid advertisement for
our State,
Our Cecil clay soils contain
about e 12 per cent humus, and
make about 20 bushels of corn,
The Miami clay, of Ohie, con
tains about 5 per cent humus,
and makes 45 to 50 bushels of
corn. This is a great difference
and is largely due to lack of
humus in our soils. Is it not to
our interest to make an effort to
increase the humus in our soils?
Cecil clay is as good as any
ofher clay if it had the humus.
We can put the humus there!
Let us do it. 1$ is not expensive
The seed for five acres will cost
five to seven dollars, according
to price, and a good crop would
be cheap at fifteen dollars.
The County Agent will not be
able to see every farmer. How
many farmers will assist him by
making up a club in his neigh
borhood? We want 100 farmers
to promise this, and do it. Let's
all get some glory out of it. It
will be the greatest feat that has
ever been accomplished in the
agricultural history of he State.
See" the County Acent and make
arrangements to get a club of 10
or more in vour community.
Make every farmer promise to
inoculate his seed. It is very
necessary not to make a mistake
here. Make him promise to
prepare his seed bed right be
fore sowing and to sow at the
riDht time. It is no use to sow
.ust Christmas. Let us
all work together for the 5,000
acres, and not stop until il is all
in the ground. Who will be the
first to secure a club of 10 or
more?
Let's paint the old State green
with crimson clover this fall.
Yours for clover and corn,
