For twenty4hree years old Jake Willard has cultivated the soil of Baldom county Alabama and drawn therefrom a support for self and wife. He is childless. Tot Long ago Jake left the House in search of a missing cow. His route led him through no old work out Patch of Clay land of about six acres in extent in Tho Center of which was a Well Twenty five or thirty feet deep and at some time probably had furnished the inmates of a dilapidated House near by with water. In passing by this spot an ill wind lifted Jake s a a tile from his head and maliciously wafted it to the Edge of the Well and in it tumbled. Now Jake had always practice the virtue of Economy and he immediately it about recovering the lost he ran to the Well uncoiled the rope which he had brought for the purpose of curing the truant cow several attempts to catch the Bat with a noose he concluded to save time by Gong Down into the Well himself. To accomplish this he made Hist one end of the Rosie to a stump hard by and was quickly on his Way Down the Well. It is a first of which Jake was no less oblivious than the Reader Hereof that Ned Wells was in the dilapidated building aforesaid and that an old Blind horse with a Bell on his Heck who had been turned out to die was lazily grazing within a Short distance of the Wal. The Devil himself or some other wicked spirit put it in Ned s cranium to have a Little fun so be quietly slipped up to the horse and a buckling the Bell strap approached with slow measured a a tin Ling a the Edge of the Wal a a Day Goliat Blind horse a said Jake he a a Komi us this Way sure and Haiut got no Moro senso than to fill in Here.

By it the greater part of the animal kingdom that serves and ministers to the wants of Man is nourished and sustained. The annual value of the grasses and forage plants to the country is probably not less than five Hundred millions of dollars. Clover a i Tho grasses therefore. Of Rstituto the True basis of agriculture the highest noblest and Best employment of Man. Ill the Northern and Middle portions of the United states the climate is cold Bleak and inhospitable for nearly half the year and the sheltering and stall feeding of Stock is a Stem inflexible necessity. There the culture of Clover and the grasses mainly occupies the flir Meris attention. In these cold climates they Are necessarily confined to a very limited sphere of production. To the Northern finer therefore the great economical Point is to. Secure enough food during the Short summer months to sustain animal life during to Weir Long cold Winters. Our Home is in genial old Georgia a a tic Sunn land Tho sunny land where nature hath displayed her Unest works with lavish hand in Hill and Vale and Gladu her streams flow Ltd in Melody through fair and to fitful Plains. And from the mountains to tic sen Beauty with plenty Here in get Iota we have a and Dir Oate capable of every variety of production. We can make any and everything Liat can to made North South East or West of us and that too to a great Dree of with Llie exception of ice and a few of the tropical fruits proper we can have Universal to of production. This universality of production Aud the boundless resources which nature has placed within our reach have had As yet but a partial development. This has been the intimate effect of circumstances and surroundings. Hitherto under the old Constitution the agriculturists of Georgia gave but Little attention to the culture of the valuable grasses. Their cultivation was less a necessity of Plantation management at the South than of farm occupation at the North. 4 4 whether we accept politically the situation or not As agriculturists we roust adapt ourselves to circumstances. Our lands inst be recuperated and the waste places built up. We must and will make ourselves the masters of the situation. Sudi a at present the state of the cultivated area of the South that the recuperation and prevention of the soil from washing and exhaustion is not a matter of Choice but one of imperative necessity. This must be done by a permanent Gnu overing of the toil. Our Northern friends have assumed the Point that in the sunny South this cannot be attained by any possible Means. They very gravely assert a publish to the world that Experiment has . Proved theim Posri Bibity of carrying the English and Northern grosses so it alled under the excessive temperatures found in the Southern states they assert that the Norm Range of the grasses not South that their native climates Are North and that we of the South live outside of the Dimsat logical limit of Gross Chure.

A soon after the War i became fully satisfied under our changed drum stances that to revolutionize on old system of planting and to master the situation As agriculturists it was a Point of Stern uncompromising necessity that the culture of the tame or valuable grasses and Clover should be successfully introduced into our state. With my head and heart determined on this Point i went to work in the Spring of 18gs. I did not go into the work on a very extensive scale but on a scale sufi Dently Large to establish a Success failure not bring in my agricultural dictionary. 1 had but Little encouragement from any one and my ideas were regarded As chimerical and visionary by my wife children High Bon and friends. I then however fat that if Success should Crown my Effort of which i had. No doubt i should have Saccom pushed a great and Good work and a work which would result in lasting Benefit to the Good people of my native state. On the 29th Day of february 1868, i seeded some ten acres of wheat with red Clover seed using about seven pounds to the acre. In november 1868,1 seeded Down fifteen acres with the following mixture alone Viz five and a half pounds red Clover five pounds Timothy four pounds Herd i grass four pounds Orchard grass and three pounds Blue grass to the acre. These Experiment embraced Upland Lowland hillsides and Woodlands the land was tolerably Well Prepa with plow and Harrow and seeded Down by myself and a Friend neither of us Ever before having had any personal experience in such business with the following result. I forbear to make representation in my own language. The Success which crowned my Effurs must be stated in the language of ors.
