Thomas J Bannon, druggist. Westerly, R I. says- Westerly painters expect a gallon of paint to cover 19 sets of blinds; Devoe covers *s; there in no such thing as rub bing this out. (The usual reckoning is for a gallon to cover 16. We suspect the Westerly people dont wear their paint till it gets very shabby.) Devoe covers more; of course, we know that; we know why too; it's all paint and full-measure. Yours truly, ai F. W. DBVOB & Co.

WIL LIAMS r AbMt the Progressive Farmers, a Valuable Free Book For Stock men, aad Aifclfc Growing The beat thing in the papers this week is the announcement that Ed itor Poe declines the offer to the ed itorship of the New York magazie and will remain in charge of The Progressive Farmer. It is my con viction th t no place in the wo Id to-day is so inviting to a young man of constructive mental power as the South, (>reat things are to be done here in th« generation. We have come into our construc tive peri. d. And the South intends to deal well with those of h> r sons wi o ovc her and know how to serve her. 1 Bfelieve The Progres sive Farmer has a splendid fa • ily circle. They are wide awake and keen to go forward They will sup port you, Mr. Editor. Ifl may pass from this pleas ing fact to stockratsiug, I should like to say that if you wish u valu able book, write to your Congress man and ask for a copy of the Twentieth Annual Report of the Bu reau of Animal Industry. 1 his re port contains an article of one hun dred on the management and feeding of pigs. You will get valu able information .from it. And if your Congressman is as good a one as mine, he will be glad to send it to you. Another thing 1 have learned is how to get a good tieid of alfalfa. Try tliis plan, if you are interested Select a half acre near your feed place. it mnst be well drain d and good land. Give it as much sta ble manure a you can spare tliis spring It is a little place, so plow it dee,* and harrow it fine. Then sow cow peas on it. Then in Sep tember if the cow peas are not too rank, plow them under, running a cutaway ha>row over them tirst. I hen make a solid, fine seed bed and sow lOpoundsbest alfalfa seed, in May this plot should be ready for mowing. And you can cut it every thirty days Whenever you can spare a load of stable manure spread it on the alfalfa. H. H. WILLIAMS University of North Carolina, Chap el Hill.
