FARM NOTES
In spite cf the heavy rains last
week. 6 field meetings were held on
the farms of Messer?. W. A. Whitfield.
D. 6. Brooks. T. T. Mitchell. E. D.
Morton. I~ P. Sherman and * J. O
Pearce
Mr. W. A. Whitfield has a nice'
field of corn and soy beans growing in
alternate rows, the rows being spaced
3 feet apart and the cprn. left a lit
tle thicke rin the drill for the six ft.
row than lor the ordinary 4. ft. row.
This gives the same number of stalks
per acre and , will not cut down the
yield cf corn while the beans are
growing Next year, the rows, will
be changed, the corn will be planted
on the soy bean row after .they have
been turned under, and the beans
will be planted on the corn row.
There is a.Scarcity Of corn in the
county, the yield per acre is. far too
low, and' this ^ysterfi will mean- more
com pet- acre if 3000 farmers will
adopt and stick tb it as they stick
to tobacco.
These beans will grow larger after
the corn' has reached maturity, they
will add expensive nitrogen to the
spil gathered from 11)? air. .and ? add
htimus to the soil so necessary, for
maintaining soil msistuie ever an
ordinary .dry pell.' Messrs.. L. P.
Sherman and J. O. Pearce were other
men visited this week who are try
ing this same system on t.fieir farm?..
In all.: there we about. :'verity-five
men who are. trying this system, and
if you are; interested in making mote
corn per .acre as you have alw^v been
bettinu while yeu are improving the
land. and. more after the first year.
ttlPH !v"\i ij 11 v;*;t
some of these men and. adopt a sim
ilar system .for .next; year' and ? stick
to it. H

the plants to drown.
Where the laiici 'is net : top ste^p,.
three rows .Trp1 are planted i n
the terrace, hence no land . taken
up and lost. If the land is compara
tively steep, then it will, be best not
to put but che row gn top .of the
terrace. In this cfif?e. the terrace need,
not be over five ot <ix feet widey:
