Georgetown, Texas, June 19.-The hot
dry weather of the past week has inn
proved the copdition of cotton i'm
mensely. The hot sun killed off the
lice and other insects that have been
such pest to the planters.
Many predict that the yield will be
larger this season than in 1894, the
acreage being larger than that year.
The corn crop is made and the yield
will be satisfactory.
With any kind of prices for cotton
this fall, money should be more plen-
tiful than any time since 1898.

(The Southern Planter.)

The fan months Of the year, commenc-
ing with October, are months when South
ern farmers can do very much work that
will be found productive of excellent
and profitable results Unlike their
Northern friends, they have, in the
months of October, November, and very
often III December, period of fine,
mild weather, when it is a pleasure both
for men and teams to work in the land
To neglect the opportunity CT doing so
is to waste and throw away one of the
greatest advantages we possess. EX
perience has demonstrated that land
broken in the fall derives adyanta ges
over that broken at any other season of
the year which are of incaIculable
value. Especially is this so where land
is plowed deeply and the bottom of the
furrOw broken with subsoil plow
One of the greatest difficulties Southern
farmers have to contend with is the abb
sence OF sufficient moisture in the land
to keep the crops growing during pc
riOds of drought in late summer, like that
through which we have just passed
Whilst never, or rarely, subject to the
long periods of drought which so fire.
uenqtly affect the lands of the Middle
and Western States, we are yet frequent
iy subjected to a few weeks of hot dry
weather in the late summer which, un-
less provided against, largely tend to re
duce the yield of our crops. The fail
months of the year are the time when
provision can be made to meet this condi-
ton Of things. In the spring and early
summer months we have usually an a.
bundance of rain to meet the needs Of all
crops throughout the whole growing
period. If the land is plowed and sub
soiled in the fall and early winter months,
this rainfall can he conserved and made
to yield itself up for the support of veg
citation when most needed. If, however,
the opportunity afforded by the fall is
missed a large part or the rainfall is
wasted and passes off into the nearest
stream, and +he crops eGffer during thc
summer. Then, gain, the proper utili-
zation Of the fall months viii enable
much more and better work to be done in
the spring Very frequently, after the
land becomes dry enough to work in
sDrjng tho time left within which to
plant crops with the greatest probab blhty
~ . -oessfui growth is very short and
WORK mas I he rushed from morning to
hl?hI WIN iLqch of it, az consequence
only partially md very ineffectlVely done.
OF these and other reasons, which we
propose fo. consider and discuss during
the fail months, we strongly urge care
full utilization of the opportunities of the
fall

During this month, the work of com
pleting the harvesting Of the crops
should first receive attsn sntion. In our last
Issue we discussed the question of the
harvesting of the corn crop, and to that
aricle we refer OUT readers. Let every
effort be made to save not only the corn,
but the stalks as we'll; not merely the
blade fodder but the whole stalks with
the blades upon them. In these are to be
found one-haIf of the feeding value Of
the corn crop, and no farmer can af-
ford to waste oDe-half his crop. If you
do not have facilities for shredding the
fodder as it is brought from the fields,
at least take care that it is carefully
sta clled up near the barn, so as to be
convenient for feeding. In making these
stacks, raise them from the ground by
putting under them a framework OF
poles, so as to permit of Il current of air
passing up through the stack. Let the
stalks over lap from each side in the
centre Of the stalks, so as to keep it full
and somewhat higher than the outsides,
and top up with straw or hay drawn
to a point, so as to shed the rain.
Later or second crops of grass and
clover. and crops Of millet, SOFA beans
and COW peas, should be cut and saved
as soon as possible These may be made
into most excellent feed if care is tax
on. Let them partially cure whilst "
ing broadcast, and then put up in small
cocks or Jumps and there stand until
ready to house. Just before housing,
open these out and let them have a few
hours sun and wind, and then pack
away closely in the barn or stack.
Tobacco should be cut and got under
cover before danger of frost The hot
weather we have had recently has ma
tured the crop very fast, and there ought
not to he any frost-bitten tobacco this
year.
Cotton should picked as fast as it
natures.
The dryness and heat of the weather
i'll Augut and September has no doubt
caused much delay in preparing the land
for the wheat and winter oat crops and
for the seeding Of grass, clover and
yetches. Now that rain has come, every
effort should be made to make up for lost
time. Do not, however in the haste TO
SOW. sacrifice the conditions necessary to
success. A firm subsoil and finely
broken surface TO the depth of at least
three inches are factors that cannot be
disregarded with impunity, especially i'll
the case of the wheat crop. The use
of the roller will be found to be most
valuable now in securing these conditions
quickly. If using a commercial fertlll-
ger, it will be found an advantage now
to use one with higher percentage Of
ammonia than would have been advisa-
bic earlier in the season,in order to help
the crop to start and make a good growth
before the winter sets in. Let the seed
