come too large, say until the corn is
in early roasting ear.
Soon after the corn and peas mature
they should be gathered and the corn
stalks and pea vines carefully turned
under. Any peas that may not have
been gathered will not be lost if
turned under, being about as valuable
for fertilizing purposes as guano,
measure for measure
Peas are nitrogen gatherers and
when turned under return to the soil
a large Quantity of nitrogen. Conse-
quently any crop requiring perfect
fertilizer, such as wheat, cotton, etc.,
will not only thrive we'll after them,
but will produce a largely increased
yield by reason of said crops having
been grown and turned under.
While the peas have the property Of
absorbing nitrogen from the air, new
ertheless they must draw, on the soil
for phosphoric acid and potash. So
these two plant foods should be sup
piled artifcially. If say 300 pounds
acid phosphate and 400 pounds kainit
are put on before the peas are sOwn,
they insure a heavy growth of the
crop, which means, of course, a large
supply of nitrogen, and if the entire
mass is turned under, the soil will be
greatly enriched and the results will
be quite apparent upon the succeed
ing crop. BRYAN TYSON,

Treatment of Frosted Trees.

Professor Bailey, Cornell University,
says upon this subject: ''The proper
treatment for froZen-bacK trees must
be determined for each particular case;
but it should be borne in mind that the
injured portion is no longer of use to
the plant, whereas, it may be a posi-
tive detriment by accelerating the
evaporation of moisture. The best
treatment for plants seriously injured
upon the eXtremities is to cut them
back heavily"
Trees treated in this way will rap
idly regain their vigor unless the in
jury is very serious. They will also
quickly resume their normal habit of
growth and shape. Cutting back the
last years growth in the winter is es-
pecially beneficial to the peach, wheth>
er it has been injured by cold or not,
asits branches tend to grow long and
SLENDER and in bearing fruit near the
eXtremities they break and split and
are ruined. Where blackberries and
raspberries have been killed back to
the ground the canes should be cut
out and burned.
A difference of opinion exists as to
the best time for cutting back injured
trees; some growers prefer to have the
work done before the leaves open, 9TH
ers choose a later time; but the safest
way is to do it early. AS soon as the
degree of injury is known, therefore,
we may wisely begin the pruning. If
left till later time, other work may
crowd it out entirely, with the result
that the orchard is lost. A saw and
tree primers are Cne tools to be used.
1t will be beneficial to carry along a
keg Of white lead and apply a coat Of
the lead to the wounds made. This
will keep out the air and prevent the
wood from checking, and retard evap-
grafton from 1T. All pruned-off wood
should be removed from the orchard
and burned.
The process here described will not
save all the trees that have been in
jured, but if done with care it will
save many, and those that die after
the treatment is given will probably
die in spite of 1t rather than because Of
it.

SOME LARGE YIELDS OF CORN.

"Some years ago Capt. Drake, of
Marlboro county, S. c., grew 255 bush
els on an acre, which appears to be the
largest yield ever reported. The corn
was planted in drills feet by S
inches.''- A. Shaw in the Practical
Farmer.
The above distance gave 21a square
feet for each stalk of corn. Reducing
this to a square we have space of
nearly 10 inches square for each stalk.
| have seen it elsewhere stated that
the above yield was of a large variety
of corn known as "COnScience."
One hundred select ears of this
corn are reported to have she'll
ed three bushels. Hence the
above yield was very probably to
great extent attributable to the kind of
corn.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1899-03-08
ANOTHER LARGE YIELD.

Some years ago N. w. Woodfin, of
Buncombe county, n. c., near Ashe-
vile, grew 149 bushels and quarts
of corn on an acre of reclaimed old
field. The corn was planted in drills
3 feet by inches, stalk. This gave
for each stalk 1 ga square feet. Re
duced to a square we have a space
nearly IS inches square for each stalk
of corn.
a comparison between the above
tests favOrs the wider distance, but
the large variety of corn Of acre No. I
may have had much to do with the
yield. The kind Oh corn planted on the
latter is not stated.
The above parcels were contests for
premiums, the former taking the two
first premiums of $500 each, and the
latter the first premium at the county
fair. Both parcels were broken deep,
highly fortified and cultivated in the
best possible manner. Farmers should
remember these points and not at
tempt to grow similar yields except
under similar conditions
Now as regards distance, | suggest
that the drills be 7 feet apart in lieu
of 6, and that some good variety Of
COW peas, say the Wonderful, be
drilled about May 18th midway be-
tween the corn rows. About three
weeks before the peas are planted a
heavy coating Of acid phosphate and
kainit. say from 300 to 600 pounds of
the former and from 400 to 800 pounds
of the latter per acre, may be streWn
in the drills midway between the corn
rows and we'll mixed with the soil.
Peas are generally left too thick for
bearing purposes, especially when well
fertiliZed and cultivated, consequently
single plants of the ordinary pea, if a
vine producer, should have from to
10 inches in the drill. The Wonderful
pea should have from IL to IS inches
distance, and some experiments may
be tried with double and treble this
distance. If vines for fertiliZing pur-
poses be desired they may be left
thicker, but a distance that will pro,
duce heavy crop of peas will answer
we'll for all purposes.
Every practical farmer knows that
if the corn is sufficiently thick to make
the largest practical yield, there is no
room for peas, nor any other plant,
while the corn is growing vigorously
But if the corn be planted as early as
we can get stand (this should always
be done, as early corn will yield about
a fourth more than late) and the peas
as late as they will mature, the corn
will go into decline in ample time fol
the pea vines to develop heavy crop
In this way very nearly full crop
each of corn and peas can be grown.
Both corn and peas should be thor

For the Florida Agriculturist.
Should Corn Be Planted in Drills or
Checks?
Every farmer should have two OBJ
jective points in cultivating crop of
corn.
i. TO procure the largest possible
profit on the capital and labor expend-
ed in cultivating the crop.
2. The improvement of the land for
the succeeding crop.
Taking both of said objects into con-
sideration, I favor drilling as the bet
ter plan.
