The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1895-02-27
Corn Information Wanted.
Editor florida Agriculturist:

have for quite while been thinking
seriously of inficting upon you letter
on matter that is of some interest to
me and | think would be to many Others
You are proprietor and editor of paper,
and OF course are naturally supposed to
know most everything--a source of
knowledge to the rest of us poor unfort
unateS who need to learn so much about
Florida farming.
The time to plant corn is nearly here.
have been dabbling in corn raising
more or less for four or five years, and
L am not satisfied at all with results. l
raise considerable of it so have partially
enough for my three head of horses and
only have to buy portion of the year.
But [ don't like that, and want to learn
better methods. You may say, there is
your friend and neighbor Mr.--who
says considerable about corn raising and
the success he has had. Yes. But still
his methods, better than many and
much better than none, hardly satisfy
me. l would like to see better results
and getting enough to keep two mules
and some hens, with some over. have
noticed many of my neighbors, his and
my own success, and ereabouts,I judge
from five to ten bushels per acre is fully
the average crop, and large number of
instances where much less is raised.
For one, have got tired of such meager
results, so | come to the editor, who is
supposed to know so much, for more
light on this wonderful Florida.
If | am correctly Informed, the corn
crop in the State is fully as valuable as
the orange crop, yet with my reading
for years of the two agricultural jour
nails of the State | have seen hundred
times more about orange raising than
corn raising. Why so much difference :?
What wonderful increase in our saving
and expense and prosperity if we could
only double the quantity per acre
raised, to say nothing of increasing four
or eight fold, rs corn is raised in some
other states. am informed that there
are people who raise from thirty to
fifty bushels per acre in Florida. For
one want to learn just how they do it.
Perhaps they herd cattle on the land and
thus enrich by cow penning. But that
will not help the most of us who cannot
get cattle to pen.
would like to know the best ferti-
liZers to use and how to use them to the
best advantage. | would rather pay
out something for fertilizers and have
some satisfaction in picking lot of good
fat ears than to run over so much Florida
sand to get few loads of nubbins.
confess | am very ignorant as to meth
DDS of fertilizing, what kinds to use, how
to apply them, whether by hand or ma
chinery drills, etc., how much to apply
and at what stage, whether before plant
ing or what time after. | would like to
put my corn in by drills as saving labor
and thus securing more moisture as it
will not dry out the land as blowing and
moving the soil will. Can you not in
your paper agitate this matter and be
the means of imparting information on
this subject in which so many are in
terested Of course some have COM

An Automatic Gate.

An Automatic Gate.
The ideal gate is one that will shut
itself and open each way. Such gate
was described in the old New England
Homestead as follows:
A shows the irons for the upper hinge.
B shows the lower hinge, which has
double pinions, while @ shows the catch

the Municipal Golfers.

Manchester. N. H.. Sept 4.-This Is a
prohibition town. in prohibition state.
The festive spider builds cobwebs
across the saloon entrances. The peo-
pie have a thirst, however The source
of the towns water supply Is Lake
Massabesic. and It is also the source
of the towns beer supply. for on the
Auburn side OF the lake. four miles
away, beer is sold on Sunday to all
who have the price. The places are
connected by a trolley line, and on
Sunday the cars carried 1000 persons.
The young men and the old ones, too.
stay over the line until they become
intoxicated, and then start for home.
The road runs past the police station
in Manchester. and all that is neces-
sary is for the police to unload the
cars. All cars now stop at police head
quarters. and the town is getting rich.
In one day $777 in fines was collected.
A plain, weekday Jag costs So. with
costs of s4.62. but Sunday "toot" is
taxed sl4.62. The law and order socie-
ties have worked and argued, but the
Auburn saloonkeepers have doubled
their orders and are drafting Manches-
ter bartenders to help them. Games of
chance flourish like a green bay tree,
