some Fertilizers.

A. b. CT wish some information about
special fertilizers.
/. Are Canada ashes as advertised in
farm papers an economical source of pot
ash for southern use and are they as uni
form in the contents of potash as kainit.
Are they as rich in potash as cotton hull
ashes?
3 I see a new fertilizer advertised as
"Demaraland fertilizer" Is it good and
standard fertilizer like guano that used
10 be so common?
8 What is slag?"
The Canada wood ashes that you see ad-
vertised in the farm papers could not well
he regarded as an appropriate source of
potash for southern farmers or truckers.
They are exceedingly variable as we find
in recent analyses by northern experiment
stations. Some samples will be found very
dry and others the very reverse. The range
too in potash is great, this being from 31s
up 10 over per cent Some samples will
show nearly per cent. of phosphoric acid
in addition to potash, while other samples
will show little or next to nothing.
Kainit contains from u to IA per cent.
of potash.
4 first quality cotton hull ash contains
from q to 30 per cent. of potash and be-
sides this to 8 per cent. of phosphoric
acid. There is no finer mineral fertilizer
in the world than huh ashes. Remember
this.
Demaraland guano is brought to New
York from some islands on the west coast
Of Africa. We know of no one who has
used it, but it is regarded as a superior fer
tilizer. A pure sample of it is said to anal
ze as follows
Nitrogen, 579; phosphoric acid, 1+7S; pot
ash, 1853; organic matter, 26 per cent. Total,
ash 81 per cent. A fertilizer coming up to
this analysis is of course excellent. 1t will
act very promptly. We have no idea what
it would cost you per ton-$4O0O-a little
more or less, we presume.
O. Basic Stag phosphate or Thomas Stag
is a waste product from the manufacture
Of Bessemer steel. 1t is also an excellent
mineral fertilizer. Containing about 20 per
cent phosphoric acid, of magnesia, IS
per cent of lime, but little or no potash
Little or none of it is used in the south, and
we are not posted as to the price, aut this
would be fully one-half that of the Demar-
al9u0 guanO.

bermuda Grass For the south.

Some one said: mo one can say too
much or too often that the great need Of
the south is grass" This is true. says
the Progressive South. If our southern
farmers would try farming on the lin
tensive PLAN" and only plant half of their
farm on this pan, and devote the other
half to permanent pastures of Bermuda
ard other good grasses, and keep a good
supply of milch COWS on this, we would
hear less of hard times, and farmers
would soon be on the road to prosperity
and independence. There is no grass that
is better for permanent pastures in the
south than Bermuda. 1t is very valuab BILE
also as fertilizer. The growth becomes
as dense as possible for a grass to be,
covering the earth to a depth of six
inches, and underneath remaining moist in
the greatest heat of summer draughts
thus with the enmeshed air keeping the
soil cool, while in winter, if not too close
ly grazed or moved in autumn, the sol. is
kept warm and the grass green beneath
the frosted tops.
The soil contains a dense network of f.
brous roots, which, with the decaying
frosted stems and leaves, fill the earth with
rich vegetable mould, and thus, in a few
years, renovate worn out lands, and at the
same time catching all the debris, prevent
washing or soil and fill the gullies.
Why is Bermuda grass as profitable for
grazing and hay? 1t is never tall while
other grasses have larger stems, the joints
are also longer, and there is but one leaf
to each joint, while Bermuda grass has
short joints with two, three or four leaves
20 each joint, by which it may be distin-
guished from other grasses. This abund-
ant foliage then accounts for the vast
yield of hay and inexhaustible grazing.
Another peculiarly about this grass is
that it will grow on nearly all Soils from
dry hills of clay or sand 20 bottoms sub
ject to most prolonged over1ows. Another
is that eschewing shade it fourishes best
in the most intense blaze of the hottest
sun, by which It is not wilted, but made to
elaborate as no other forage plant can. the.
rich, abundant, wholesome food for such
vast numbers of animals.

Currants In southern Georgia.

Is the best variety? L. C.
we are not aware of any currants being

hish-class hens, say Brown Leghorns. and
it will pay for forty at least, and they
ought to be good ones at that price.
Witohut going into details. we will say
that it has been proven time and again
that their droppings will more than paw
Tor the time spent in caring for them
but we will call it an even thing.
FORTY Leghorn hens will produce in one
year $50 dozen eggs, which are worth
taking the year through, about II cents
dozen. This would make them worth
S59,6O. This is the gross return. At pres
ent prices of grain, hen can be kept a
year on any farm in the country, for 80
cents or less. The keeping of the hens
would cost SO leaving a clear profit of
%35.6O for the year from the $40 invest
ment
A $40 COW that would yield as great a
profit as that would be considered a re-
markedly profitable one.
1t would seem from this showing that
the Keeping of hens on a large scale might
be conducted by any one having a mod
crate capital with fun assurance of a for
tune in a short time, but we would advise
those who contemplate a move of this
kind to begin moderately, for keeping a
large flock of hens and making them pay
good profit is a matter that requires
a considerable experience. 1t is the uni
versal experience of poultry keepers that
while it is very simple matter to make
a large profit from a small flock, it Is
quite another thing TO keep a large flock
with commensurate results. He who
would succeed with poultry should begin
with a few and increase the number as
he learns the details from actual work

Charcoal For Fatteninp.

Experiments made with turkeys demon
strated that when charcoal was added "a
their food they gained more rapidly in
weight than when it was omitted. This
would imply that there was something la
the charcoal which created fat, but it is
doubtful if any portion of the charcoal is
digested. The probability is that when
fowls are being fatted they receive more
food than should be allowed, a portion
fermenting in ~the crop before it can be
passed on to the gizzard. Fresh charcoal
absorbs gases, and serves to correct
acidity and it is 10 this property of char
coal that its beneficial effects are due.
Charcoal is eaten by hogs for the same
purpose, and proves a valuable adjunct
when they are fed heavily. In fattening
poultry IL is not necessary 10 feed every
two or three hours but rather to allow all
the food the fowls can eat at one meal,
three times a day being a sufficient num-
Der of meals. II is the amount of food di-
gested that causes the increase of weight,
and 1t requires several hours for digestion
to occur. Any food given that cannot be
digested retards the gain of the fowl and
also increases the cost of production.
Charcoal is an assistant to digestion, and
not food itself.
