Page 2 QUAKER GAP WIRED GOOD PHONE LINE BUILT Nearly Every Section of the County Is Now Connected By Phone With Danbury, the County Seat. The Reporter has been glad during the last few days to talk over the telephone with Dr. S. A. Moir, of Francisco; R. L. Nunn, of Westfield; and others of the good citizens of upper Quaker Gap Township, and through the Brown Mountain section. Those regions of the county are now equipped with an excellent telephone service, hav ing gone into a corporation among themselves, and built a good line at a very reasonable cost. Nearly every section of the county is now in phone com munication with Danbury, and it! is hoped that those neighbor hoods that have not built lines ( will do so early, as any set of i farmers may erect telephones at, a low cost where they do all the; work themselves. - Cowpea and Crabgrass Hay For 1 the Curing. I Messrs. Editors : Cowpeas | are preeminently the best legume j for the poor farmer and the! small farmer, because they both I want a good grade of hay which is generally lacking. Again,; they are the cheapest thing to sow. Cowpeas at $2.80 per bushel, cost only 70 cents per i acre, and what other legume can be sown for 70 cents per acre ?> I only sow one peck to the acre. Cowpea hay is the same as bran or shorts, mostly protein, and who wants to feed stock pure bran or shorts ? Therefore, I sow 1 peck of peas on deep plowed land, well fined on top with smoothing harrow, and j harrow the peas in: then run a slide over the land to promote the growth of the crabgrass, and if the land is too poor to bring crabgrass, I sometimes sow alsike. but that is not necessary. When I cut my hay I have a well balanced ration. Never drill peas and waste time cultivating, as cultivation on hilly land does as much harm as ihe peas will do good. Cultiva tion causes hilly land to wash, and that is the thing we have to look out for if we ever expect to improve our land. Gullies are always a disgrace. I find that good plowing pays for peas. Every farmer should have a small hand pea hullerj and save his own seed. My • experience of 15 years is that i you can not raise more and' better live stock without a I balanced ration: and this one 1 comes for almost nothing, for the peas, sown by my method, 11 pay their cost in improvement l to the land. ! j I have another legume that, — 1 j COMPOUND CALLOUSES '• • Telia Splendid Cure for Them £ > * and All Foot Troubles. * | A compound callous Is tbe secondary stage when it grows Inward and press- 1 es on the nerves, causing intense pain. Callouses never cure themselves but j always get worse, someUmes irritating the whole nervous system. The follow ing 1* a most effective and , «J speedy cure "Dissolve two ; h| tablespoonfuls of Calocide (' M in a basin of hot water. , 1 \ Soak the feet in this for I full fifteen minutes, gently ft J massaging the sore parts. , Less time will not give the ' a Jly desired results.) The soro ness will disappear Imme- , diately and the callous can be easily peeled off. Repeat thia for aeveral alghta. A little olive oil rubbed into akin is very beneficial." I Thia Calocide ia a very remarkable yPa ration for all foot allmenta. , Bunions, corns and ingrowing nalla get instant relief and are soon cured. Bad smelling and sore feet need but a few i treat ■teats. Calocide ia no longer con fined to doctors' use. Any druggist haa it in stock or win quickly get It from I hi a wholesale house. A twenty-five oent package ia usually enough to put , the worst feet Is Um condition.

Petree. chief of the ! Stokes County Farm Demon stration work, was in Danbury i Friday on his way home from meeting some of the demonstra i tors here. Mr. Petree gives ; some very encouraging news from the field. There are about 155 listed demonstrators in the county now, quite an increase over the number booked last year, while there are about as many "blockaders," that is those who are practising demonstra tion methods without binding themselves to follow complete instructions. I Mr. Petree says that as a rule those who followed demonstra ! tion methods last year have twice |as much corn in their cribs as ! usual at this season of the year. The great benefits resulting from the new methods of raising corn, and from the general up lift to farming interests of all kinds growing out of the intellig ence and enthusiasm of the "new 1 farming" now permeating every j neighborhood of the county, can- j not he computed in dollars and cents. I wish to mention Melilatus' alba of sweet clover, which is i a very paying crop to sow for land improvement or for ino- ; culating land that is to be sown in alfalfa. You have to sow lime or wood ashes to succeed best with sweet clover. It makes a rank growth for me, 3or 4 feet tall on poor land,; and re-seeds itself like alsike, which is a great consideration when sowing grass. Sweet clover makes fine grazing, but horses do not seem to eat it after the stalk gets old and woody. I have a fine stand of alfalfa on sweet clover inocula tion.
