The Dixie Farmer calls at-
tention to a most fruitful source
of failure in the cultivation cf
Southern plantations and farms.
Uver-cropmg or planting more
acres than" can be properly pre-
pared and cultivated is a great
evil in the South and evidences.
of it are to be met with in every I
community in lexas. llictrue
cause of all thisuntidincss about
farms is that farmers lay out
more work than they can per-
form in the field and hence in
an effort to catch up their fen-
ces and -houses and stock arc
neglected and superficial culti-
vation results in poor crops and
less money and less content-
racntand enjoyment ofthc home
than where work is measured
out exactly by the ability of the
farmer to perform it Says the
Farmer: ."The great fundamen-
tal maxim of all true agriculture
that production must be in pro-
portion to tillage is cither not
known or forgotten upon such
farms and in its stead is adopted
the maxim that production is in
proportion to the quantity of
surface to which the rude and
unshapely counterfeit of tillage
is given. To obtain as much
as possible from the number ot
acres a man can cultivate thor-
oughly and to attempt to culti-
vate no more dun can be made
to yield the maximum of profi-
table production should be the
main object of every farmer's
labor and skill." Until farmers
become satisfied to cultivate a .
smaller surface and bring to J
bear on all the varied operations
and processes of that cultivation
more practical science and ex-
perimental knowledge the best
means of preparation the besj
arrangements to guard against
the vicissitudes of the weather
the attainment of the greatest
quantity and best quality of
of acreable productions can
never be reached. A large
crop of thorough cultivation is
invariably the most advantage-
ous. It demontrates the skill
and industry of the farmer and
the extent to which agricultural
development can be carried
beneficial to the farmer who ex-
hibits it in dollars and cents
and beneficial in example to al
who see it The beginning of
another year is at hand and the
fanner bigins to lay out his work
for the year. Let him carefully
consider the danger of over :
cropping and at the end of an-J
other season be richer and hap.
pier than before.

That is the home. The educatsd woman
