Economical aIeihods Of Cultivating, Gath.
ering and Marketing the Cotton Crop.
The question of how much cotton we
can afford to plant having been def
nltely settled, the next subject for i'm
mediate attention, is how best to cult
vate these acres, and also to gather and
market the crop III order to get the larg-
est return at the least expense. 1t has
| been stated OH the authority of an emf
knent man, who has planted cotton
largely all his life and who has given d
great part Of his time to the study Of
tse various circum2tanceS affecting its
sale, that the value of the cotton crop,
for the last ten, years has been depre-
clated at least one sixth by the rules OF
the Cotton Exchange, which rules were
founded on and have been since sup
ported by the careless methods of the
planters themselves. Our methods of
handling have been such as to give the
buyer every advantage. and it cannot
be too strongly urged that not only

far as possible, from the time the prepa-
ration for the crop begins, until the last
lock is gathered, but that in ginning
and shipping. the same rigid economy
shogld be observed. We are not careful
enough in the sample we send to market,
and the large preponderance of inferior
grades affects injuriously the price of
the whole crop. Again, the chances of
fair sample i'll the markets Is often
destroyed by exposure and rough hand
ling of the goods after they are ready
for shipment. The present form and
careless covering of our bales are re-
sponsible for much of the damage which
our cotton sustains before it reaches its
final destination.
We believe that if the round, compact
bale were universally adopted, the con-
venlence Of handling and shipping
would be greatly increased and the dan
ger from injury and loss so decreased
as eventually to sensibly affect the
market quotations. This much needed
reform in our methods would, as our
friend suggests, work revolution in
the rules of the New York and New
Orleans cotton exchanges. by eliminat-
ing from the markets the greater part
Of the inferior grades, which now tend
to depress prices. The round bale is
gaining in favor every day, and as
farmers more generally acquaint them
selves with its advantages, It's adoption
will become certain. We allude to this
question thus early. because by calling
attention to its merits now, it is posi-,
BILE to market much of even this years

Sofa Beans.

QUEsTIoN.-During the Exposition
noticed in the Georgia building a dis
play Of SOFA Beans, which I was told
were lsgpme of exceptionally fine
quality for stock feed. Please give me
all the information possible as to this
crop I would like to know how it
compares with our field pea, both as q
food and as renovator of the soil. Also
when to plant and how to cultivate.
What is the usual yield per acreS
ANswER.-As an improver of worn
soils and a valuable food for stock the
Sofa Bean ranks among our best crops.
The bean is richer in fat than any of
our grains and stock are very fond Of
the fodder. The latter if mixed with
corn in the silo furnishes better bal
anced ration than the corn alone. From
the following analysis, taken from the
United States agricultural department
reports, it will be seen that as a>fertil.
izer and improver Of the soil and as q
food, the SOFA bean takes rank above
our ordinary field or COW pea.-State
Agricultural Department.

Flowing Corn the First Time,

QUESTION.-Is it injurious to corn to
pillow deep the first time? I have not
been able to prepare my land as thor
oughly as would like, and want your
advice as to which would be best; to
break it out thoroughly the first time.
or give it entire surface culture?
ANswER.-If you will examine the
roots of very young corn you will find
that they extend out considerable dis
lance very near the surface. This hor-
iZontal growth will be found to con-
tinue for q considerable distance before
they begin to sink deeper into the soil.
Therefore deep blowing at first must
necessarily cut some of the small roots,
but if the land has been poorly prepared,
or is of the stiff quality, which has been
packed by heavy rains after preparation,
we should certainly take the risk Of
deep blowing the first time. The root
pruning is certainly less injurious at
that period than later on. In doing this
work be careful not to throw too much
dirt to the young corn. The old plan of
chilling up the corn, causes it to throw
out set Of roots prematurely. A little
soil sifted In at each successive working
is desirable and beneficial; anything
more than that is injurious State Ag.

In explanation of the terms used.
Protein is the name of group of ma
terials containing nitrogen. 1t fur
nishes the materials for lean flesh,
blood, skin, muscles, tendons, nerves,
hair, horns, wool. and the cassein and
albumen of milk, etc., and is one of the
most important constituents of feeding
stuffs.
Fiber is the frame work Of plants, and
is, as rule, the most indigestible con-
stituents of feeding stuffs. The coarse
folders, such as hay and straw, contain
large proportion of fiber, and are for
this reason less digestible than the
grains, oil cakes, etc.
Nitrogen free Ertract includes starch,
sugar, gums and the like, and forms an
important part Of all feeding stuffs, but
especially OF most grains. The nitrogen
free extract and fiber are usually classed
together under the name of carbohy-
drates. The carbohydrates form the
largest part of all vegetable foods They
are either stored up as fat or burned In
the syStom to produce heat and energy.
Fat includes. besides real fats, wax,
the green coloring matter Of plants. ETC.
The fat Of food Is also stored up in the
body as fat, or burned in the system to
produce heat and energy.
The yield of SOFA beans of coursevarios
with the seasons and with the quality Of
land on which the crop is planted. On
rich land, we'll cultivated, it will pro-
duce an enormous crop of beans and
fodder. The rows should be from three
to five feet apart. according to soil and
amount Of manure used, The culture
is very much such as is given to cotton

Fertilizing Sweet Potatoes.

QUEsTIoN.-I desire to know the best
fertilizer for sweet potatoes, and how
much to apply per acre.
ANswER.-It has been found that
sweet potatoes require good deal Of hi
trogen and potash, and not as much
phosphoric acid as was once thought to
be necessary. A good mixture would
be 200 pounds acid phosphate, 300 pounds
cottonseed meal and 500 pounds kainit.
The amount to be used to the acre de-
ponds upon the character of the land
upon which you wish to apply it. On
we'll prepared land, full of humus or
vegetable matter, 1000 pounds of the
above mixture could be used with profit.
On lands only moderately supplied wit 4
humus, much less quantity should be
used, and on thin land devoid of humus

be ample. State Agricultural Depart.
