Plant earn

The Southern press has time and again
urged upon our planters the necessity of
giving more than usual attention to pro-
vision crops, and thus avoid the mistake of
last year. They should now put in double
the quantity OF corn. making their ealcula-
tions for not more than half a crop. In
other words, plant twice as much land in
corn as would, with good seasons, make a
sufficient supply.
We know, says the Augusta CronicJe &
Sentinel, that there is very general con
viction among the planters that it is cheaper
to buy corn with cotton. at thirty cents
pound than it is to raise it. This is a
grand mistake. The trouble is, it is never
cheap or proper for planter to buy any
thing he can raise himself. Produce on
your own land everything necessary to
carry on your planting interests and then
raise as much cotton as you can. The
money received from the cotton crop, is
then the profits of the farm. But if you
have to spend third or half of the pro
ceeds Of the crop to purchase such sup
plies as could be raised at home, you d.
minish to that extent the profits of plant
ing.
Another reason and a very conclusive
one to us, why our planters should be
certain to plant largely of corn is that, if
the cotton crop fails, it involves a total fail
ure of the entire planting interests, unless
you have raised your own supplies. The
present condition of the country is a ter
rible warning to us of the folly and ruin
Gus results of the system which we are
eondemning. Last year a very short corn
crop was planted the season was bad and
the crop failed entirely. The cotton crop
planted was very large one it failed and
now we have neither corn nor money tc
purchase it with.
We hope and trust our planters viii not
be caught in this condition again. We
know that they will not, if they will only
be certain to plant largely of corn and other
provision crops.

A WoRD on CoRN-A new era is open
ing to the South, and it is feared that our
planters are about to pursue the suicidal
policy Of 1866. which has brought the
country to starvation's door. We made
little cotton last year, and the greater part
of it goes to buy bread and meat for this
Not only does the money made during the
year sift through our hands into the great
corn and bacon mill, but the poor all over
the land are brought to want, and in many
cases. death. A large crop of cotton with
a good price aud no food, is bad policy
for any people. 1t is true, cotton is to be
made to enable tho planters to pay the
wages of their freedmen, but let the crop
be confined to that and the necessary out
side expenditures of the family. Do this
and devote all remaining labor to the pro-
duction of grain, and the country will at
least be safe, If not prosperous-ands safety
is what our people should aim at now.

MANURINa.-There is no operation on
the farm that begins to pay like this. Do
not, then, grudge the time required, and
the labor employed in this slow and tedi-
Gus operation. Gather from every quarter
the materials for increasing your coming
harvest. Wherever they may be accessi-
bic, commercial manures should be freely
employed. It will pay. Cotton seed, if
partially rotted, should be used late, as
their virtues will soon be exhausted. If
used fresh, they ought to be applied so
soon as to prevent their sprouting. AS to
farm manures, when hauled to the field,
they should be Immediately mixed with the
surface soil, or if laid in heaps, covered
with coating of earth. It always pays
to work over manures in the yard, throw
ing them up in heaps, and covering with
rich mould, letting them lie in their state
to ferment, until needed for application
They act like nitre beds, and the supply of
fertilizing matter is largely increased from
the atmosphere. Gather from every
source, leaves, trash, bedding material,
swamp muck and sea weed and other ma
terial, for increasing the plantation supply
of manure, is the most important business

MATURING Whatever manures are to
be used, the earlier they are got upon the
ground the better, that they may be sub
mitted to the solvent action of spring rains.
There is often, we think, much loss by too
long delay in this matter. Apply early
and keep them near the surface. For ma
nuring corn in the hill, some well prepared
compost Of plaster, ashes, and rich mould,
or poultry house manure, with little plas-
ter, or good super-phosporate, or mixed
guanos, should be prepared. Where it is
not practicable to give the land a sufficient
broadcast manuring, it is very desirable to
have it MANFRED in the hill. Indeed, under
any circumstances, and with seed of every
kind, little fertlizing material in imme
diate contact with seed is advisable, to give
the young plant a vigorous start.
