WINTER FEED FOR STOCK.
Information of Great Interest to
Farmers.


Brunswick, Ga, Dec. s25.-Editor Morn
ing News: The Savannah News is dis
seminating much valuable information TO
the farmers in Georgia. The issue Of
the 2tst inst, gives some facts about the
feeding of milk cows, which are interesting
and has suggested this article which 1

bushel of southern rye, and fifty bushels
of cotton seed, can be made to feed all
most entirely five head of milk cows for
three months of the winter season, If
treated in the following way: Take one
acre of pretty good land, free from trash
and all roughness; cut it into beds three
feet wide; make the beds nice and smooth
as If you were preparing the land for gar
den seed. Open up small furrow on the
top of the ridge or bed with a three-inch
scooter in the bottom of the furrow sow
the rye as thick or thicker than GU
would turnip or mustard seed, over these
SOW the cotton seed; at the rate of fifty
bushels to the acre. This makes the cot
ton seed appear about twice as thick as
you would plant for a good stand. Cover
with light rake. following it with a roll
er or, in Someway pressing down the
earth firmly upon the seed. The rye will
come up promptly though the seed which
is a warm fertilizer and will begin to grow
off at once. One month from the date of
coming up" the rye win begin to furnish
feed as a soiling and will in two months
time be as strong and rigorous as cat
tail millet when Sown in spring. The rye
can be cut at least three times during the
spring months, and will be eaten vigorous
ly by almost every living animal on the
place, including the poultry. OF course
no grazing is to be allowed, but the rye

The farmer, of course. A farm without
poultry is like home without a mother,
writes ]. L. Todd in Wallaces Farmer.
Many farmers will tell you there is no
money in raising poultry, yet they keep
right on raising it. Some farmers are too
proud to admit it. yet they well know that
poultry is one of the most profitable ad-
juncts to the farm for the money that is
invested in it. Will 1t pay the farmer to
raise thoroughbreds? asks one. Yes, we
say, 1t Will pay and pay well If he goes
at it right The farm is the poultry par
adise; it is its natural home, and they
can be raised there with the least possible
expense. There is no place so well suited
stock, especially fine poultry. Here they
develop into the finest specimens. Every
farmer should be fancier, and he can,
too, and the odds are in his favor if he
only knew it. Some of the finest chickens
l ever saw were raised by a farmer. He
raised but one kind and took pride in hav-
ing the best, hence he made a success Of
it. If farmers will take the pains to raise
fine fowls as they do other fine stock,
give them the proper care, comfortable
houses, look after the breeding qualities
and study the matter up as they do other
matters pertaining to farming they will
find it pays and pays well.
l know gentleman in Nebraska that
makes il pay and pay we'll In fact, he
told me while at the Nebraska state fair
that his poultry had clothed and kept his
family and paid the taxes the last three
years. OF course, he had thoroughbredS
and makes a study of it. Just think of
it, a family of four or five. OF course, he
raised nothing during the two years of
drought, yet he had place to live, but
his eighty acres produced nothing. There
are hundreds of men and women in the
United States that are getting 600 and 700,
yes, thousand dollars year out of the
fancy poultry business. Yes, there are
men getting $1,000, $1,000 and $4,000 year
out of it! 1. K. Fetch sold $1,000 worth in

ments by teaching. Carefully composing

To Improve a Lawn.

Lawns can be kept green and thickest
without the use of stable manure.
City and village people who have
few square rods Of grass usually imagine
ii necessary to keep the plot covered for
weeks with badly scented and III looking
manure, when the fact is that one-half
the moneys worth of nitrate of soda and
powdered phosphate of lime will answer
better and create no nuisance. They fur
nish to the soil what is most needed, an
alkali, phosphoric acid and nitrogen.
Both of them are inodorous and show
their effects Immediately ON application.

own Way.
Any honest physician will tell you that
there is but one way to get increased flesh
al, the patent medicines and cod liver oils
to the contrary Notwithstanding
Nature has but one way to increase flesh,
strength and vigor of mind and body, and
that is through the stomach by wholesome
food well digested. There is no reason or
common sense in any other method what
ever.
People are thin run down, nervous pale
and shaky in their nerves, simply because
their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dyspepsia
but the fact remains that they do not eat
enough food or what they eat is not quick
ly and properly digested as it should be.
DIR. Harlandson says the reason is be-
cause the stomach lacks certain digestive
acids and peptones, and deficient secretion
of gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is to sup
ply what the weak stomach lacks. There
are several good preparations which will
90 this, but none so readily as Stuarts

pectally for all stomach troubles, and
which cure all digestive weakness ON the

Why Farmers Should Keep Sheen

The following are some of the reasons
given by Prof. Thomas Shaw in the North
western Agriculturalist why every farmer
should keep at least few sheep:
Because they would help to keep the land
clean, In this respect no kind of live stock
can compare with them. Sheep will clean
out the underbrush that may grow in
forest or grove in quick order. The way
IS thus paved for the introduction of a
grass covering which is better for the
sheep or indeed for any kind of stock
mat the leaves of the twigs that previous
~ covered the land. If they have access
to weeds early in the season there is
scarcely any kind of weed that thew will
not eat with avidity, and in the autumn
they make famous scavengers when per-
mitted to CLEAN amid the stubbles If
every one had a flock of sheep there would
pe very much less heard about weeds.
Because they keep up the fertility of
the land: No class of live stock can com
pare with sheep in keeping up the fertility
OF 9I the land when they may feed on it.

IN which they distribute their droppings
to the fact that insects do not waste it by
working in It, and to the further fact that
Ihere is but little waste from washing 1t

rated with 1t through the treading of the
Because they furnish nice wholesome
meat for the family at any season of the
year. Those families on the farm who
nave no mutton miss what may be term
may be killed at nearly any season of the
year. and the carcass can easily be pre-
served until used. Such a mode of pro
Viding at least part of the meat is at
once cheap and satisfactory. Such meat
would cost but little and in addition to its
usefulness 1t is very wholesome. Those
families on the farm who once cultivate
the habit of eating mutton will not De
content to again be without this article
of diet.
Also because they are profitable. Many
Oh our farmers seem to think that they
are not profitable, and Judging by the
prices that are paid for them on the
farms, there would seem to be some truth
IN the idea. But when this industry is
worked up as it ought to be 1t will be

Onion CnIture i'm Georpia.

So far as climate and soil are concerned,
the south can grow as fine onions as are
grown in New England or the middle
states. Adopting the varieties best suited
to our climate and meeting the necessary
conditions of proper manuring and cultiva-
ton, it is not difficult to produce as large
Yields as are produced anywhere. Of
course 1t is crop requiring much wiser
management than our ordinary staple
crops, demanding also greater Judgment

seed or from SETS or whether sown or
planted in the late fall or early spring, the
onion of general commerce natures in
June or early July (some varieties in early
May), and we are compelled to store them
during several months of warm weather.
During that time there is more or less de-
cay; sometimes the loss is very great,
some years very small, if the arrange
ments are perfect for storing them and are
harvested in proper condition. This diff
