GRASSES AND FORAGE CROPS IN
THE SOUTH.

The March number Of the Southern
Farm Magazine formerly the Southern
States Farm MagaZinel is taken up
largely with q discussion of grasses in
the South. The magazine. in addition to
such regular features as might be looked
for in Il hieh-class agricultural periodical
takes up each month for elaborate treat
Inpnt seine one comprehensive topic. The
subject for January was The Negro As
an Agricultural Iahorer." and for Feb
ruary Southern Soils and Their Treat
ment." The subject discussed in the
March number is one of the most impor-
tant that could be brought before South
crn farmers The South needs impera-
lively 10 raise more live stock and to i'm
prove its breeds Of stock. The very foun-
dation Of stock breeding is grass. The
South needs to adopt measures to main
tain soil fertility and to restore depleted
SOILS. The only way to this end is to cul-
tiyate the grasses.
In this number Hon. Charles w. Dab
ney. in an article OF Our Farm Animals
and Their Food shown by Il very
graphic presentation Of facts and Statis-
tics how far short the South vet falls of
raising enough grain and forage for even
its present live stock; and this not
understanding. as l. abundantly demon
Stratcd in other articles, that no cOlln-
try presents better opportunities for MAX
ing permanent pastures, and nowhere do
they yield such uniformly great profits
as i'll thee South.
Col. J. X. khlebrew. under the title
Some Southern Grasses describes the
grasses hest suited to the climate and
soils of the South. and tells how they
should be cultivated. Colonel Kilebrcw
has not only the ample scientific knOWl-
edge of the subject. lnrt, as the owner Of
Il Splepdid farm. which he has always
made highly profitable. he has nad Il lon.
questions pertaining to forage.
Forage Crops Of Western North Caro-
lima is the title Of an article by Mr..
Csc. +. Weston, superintendent of the
Vanderbilt stock farms at Biltmore. y.
c.. in which the forage methods pur-
sued on this estate are described.
A Grass Farm is the title Of an ar
ticlc by Mr.. John II. Fain. who bought
an old hill farm and is now making it
support Il large herd of COWS and cattle.
But probably the most interesting feat
urc of this grass discussion is a large
number of letters from successful and
prosperous Southern armer and stock
breeders giving their experience III deal
ing with the question OF forage.
This number of the ma gaZine is even
richer taan usual in all its regular feat
ures. 1t is Illustrated with Il number of
