The practice on a great many OF
the large cotton plantations farther
South is to SOW peas broadcast in all
the corn at the last blowing, and af-
ter the corn is gathered in September
to turn the stock into the fields.
This requires caution at first, OF
course, but it furnishes a most excel

the latter part of November, and
leaves the land actually improved by

of the best farmers in Rhea county

planted a five-acre piece of bottom
land in corn and peas annually for six
years, taking off the grain of both
crops and turning under the stever
and that the yield of corn has steadi'
ly increased. Peas and corn sowr

Cow Peas at the South.

AS there is a growing interest
shown in COW dess, both as a forage
crop, and as green manure, especi-
ally at the South, 1 will give you
few data from one of the greatest
pea-growing sections in the country.
This county (Monroe) annually eX"
ports from 10000 to 10000 bushels, and
Think this is but little more than one.
half the quantity actually produced
Our best variety, the common Clay
pea, probably could not be grown
successfully as a grain crop at the
North, as it takes long time to ma
ture seed. But the Speckeied or
Whippoorwill pea l should think
could be grown in almost any part of
the United States. 1t is a rapid
grower, natures seed early, and
yields almost as much as the Clay
variety, but does not make as much
vine and root, and consequently is not
as good a renovator of the soil.
The crop in this section is almost
wholly of the Clay variety. That
part of it which finds its way into
market is grown principally on small
holdings, and is mostly picked by
women and children. The seed crop
is usually planted in the same row
with the corn at replanting time;
though some fields are planted be-
tween the rows at the second plow-
ing. Peas do well planted with corn,
their roots, seeking nourishment
at a greater depth, do not seem to
interfere with the growth Of the corn,
and the cost of production is reduced
to a minimum, as the same blowing
cultivates both corn and peas.
For green manure they are gener-
ally sown broadcast and narrowed in
on freshly plowed land. For this
purpose they are excellent; far sur
passing clover or any other crop
known in this section. They will
grow and produce a luxuriant crop
of vines where it is impossible to get
a catch of clover. The most COM
mon way of referring to utter steriii-
ty in the soil here is to say that cit
will not sprOut COW pea" | be-
lieve in clover, having over 100 acres
of it on the farm, using it as Mr..
Terry says, for pumping fertility up
out of the subsoil to where it will be
more available. If both the surface
and subsoil neither clover nor peas
will avail-only stable manure. But
if there is any strength in the subsoil,
COW peas may be depended on to 60
further after it, and pump more of it
up in a given time than any other
crop.
A splendid stand of clover may be
obtained after blowing under one or
two crops of peas on land which
would not previously have held even
a suspicion of clover. Dry weather
frequently kills young clover, but 1
have never yet seen drouth which
put a very serious check on Clay
peas.
With peas, sorghum and the silo,
we can stand almest any season.
The usual practice on this farm for
years has been to plant from 10 to %
acres in peas alone, usually drilling
them in with the corn planter in
rows two feet apart-three pecks to
one bushel per acre-and blowing
them out once or twice with the
cltivatOr. If we need the crop for
hay, we have them cut up by hand
with a scythe, or with the mower if
the ground happens to be smooth
enough.

Flowing Wet Lands.

The monthly reports are beginning
to come in at the State Bureau of Ag-
riculture from all over the State of
the condition Of crops. The Commits
sioner says the cool weather prevail
ing up to this time has been of adj
vantage to the wheat crop, and the
indications are the continued falling
off in wheat prospects that was antic-
ipated has been arrested under favor
able conditions. The spring work in
corn and cotton fields has been much
delayed, and as a result in many
sections of the State farmers are plow-
ing their lands too wet. Flowing
wet lands, especially heavy clays on
limestone foundation, will injure
the productive capacity of the lands
for two or more years thereafter. In
some instances the injury lasts six
or seven years. This warning that
