Picking Cherries and Seed Plot Principles From Farmers Column

The article discusses a cherry picking device design and notes on seed plots for crops. It emphasizes early planting per frost safety, seed selection from fields for next year, and benefits of improved seed on cotton and corn yields. It also covers molasses feeding trials for cattle and horses, wrapping fruit trees to deter rabbits, and a small chicken feeding pen design for preventing interloping.

Cryptic Note on Promises and Conduct

Here and There Notes on Caution and Courtesy

A bulletin of aphorisms urges not to let rivals beat you to opportunities. It cautions that worthwhile business cannot be cached in a single day and that excuses are easily wrapped away. It warns that playful risk with a cat may lead to scratches, and mocks those who talk endlessly without substance. It ends by promoting a habit of cheerfulness.
