A practical feeder and stockman said in ourpresence, that good water and plenty of it was more essential than plenty of feed. That in feeding a bunch of cattle if he had to be stinted on either water or feed he would accept the reduction in feed.

Senator John B. Newberry’s pre- diction (speaking for the east part of the county) is, that a good half crop of corn will be raised, and that if seasonable from now on the greatest surplus of feed stuff ever seen in the county will be produced. The farmers have abundantly plant- ed cane, millet, kattir corn, turnips and other seeds suitable to be grown at this season of the yearand should the season be right. with the half crop of corn and abundance of fodder there is certain to be an over produc- tion in this kind of feed stuff for stock.
