Another matter: Sugar has been

An article in one f the leading
atzrieultural journals not long since,
mentioned the Roanoke river low
rounds as the soil most adapted
to the fertilization and cultivation of
t'je great sugar beet. Sugar being
on the tariff now. the manufacturer
of the beet has of course a h'gher

Quite a number of tbeaive made
their pile" in a few jeaw; but a
good many wert into bankruptcy;
others saved themselves y "seiur.g

But the sreat body of the set tiers.
that is those who farmed, by far the
larger oart of the inhabitHntf, were

Of course the more means a fam

would be their opportunities forfget

they would' have to sutrer, although
thia was no indication of how they
would stand, financially, in 5 or 6
years, for it very often happened
that those who came with very mut

Watering and picketing cos in a

know that there are children now
living; who will retnemier "picketing

death, if ibey live 100 year.
Someticncs we -would picket our
hogs if we did not have but one or
two, Iwt frequently had small
pens that could be easily moved
about.
If the cn was not too large the
bogs would move it thcn.si lves.
Sometimes the hogs would break
out, and if the pen was small it was
a task to get them in again.

There is some truth in the above,
nevertheless I know by experience
that thoso who do not bring some
thing with them will see a pretty
tough time.
One of the most aggravating chores
for a noor settler and his familv is
to take care of his tram, wheu it isj
not at work, and to take care of his
cow, or more if be has more, and
their calves and also the hogs.
There were 00 fences aud nothing
to make fences ol ; yet there was
abundance of grass and his slock
ought to have it.
So the horses, cows ana caivcs
must be tied out to a rope and this
rope made fast to a' stake dr ven in
the ground ; we called this -pket-iDg;"
some wotiid call it -staking
out," others would call it -lariating;
but this was not correct.
