SHEEP AND POULTRY PAY.

Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer
Few things on the farm pay better
than sheep or poultry. One of your
Northampton county correspondents
reported recently that sheep paid
him better than anything else. And,
when one thinks of it rightly, it is
seen to be very natural that they
should. Other fnrm products are
made more largely from cash grains,
while those from the sheep are made
principally from pasture. There is
no other product of the farm that
has fluctuated so slightly in value as
good mutton. By comparison wool
costs nothing, for do not the horse
and COW in shedding their coats
waste what the sheep saves? West
ern North Carolina, especially, is q.
great sheep country.
And if we farmers would only
keep accounts with our hens, we
would soon realize the big profits
from them. If the poultry business
does not pay it will always be found
that the fault lies with the owner
and not with the business itself.
Either he does not understand what
he is about or he does not give it
sufficient attention. There is money
in poultry where proper attention is
given it. R. D. P.

WHEN TO PLANT STRAWBERRIES, AND
HOW.


One Of North CarOlina's Largest Strawberry
Growers Tells What Experience Has Taught
Him.
Correspondence fThe Progressive Farmer.
In growing Strawberries a great
deal depends on beginning right.
More than with almost any other
crop.
The strawberry plant is exceed
ingly intolerant of heat and drought.
It's nature causes it to love moisture
and GOODNESS, or even coldness in
preference to it's opposite IF set in
drought or heat, or if the setting is
closely followed by drought and
heat, not only bad stand is likely
to result, but the plants that live
never do quite as well as those that
are set under favorable conditions
and grow off quickly.
The way to avoid a set back of
this kind is to select the right sea-
son to plant. Generally speaking,
this season is the cool season. At
that time the sun is weak Plants
grow off then without whiting.
This season for planting, which 1
have broadly designated as the cool
or moist season, extends from about
September 18th to about April 18th
At the far North it might be neces-
sary to plant later in spring than
April 18th But throughout the
whole United States, with this small
exception, planting can be done
within the period designated. South
of the latitude of Washington d. e.,
planting can be safely done on any
day within that period that the
weather will permit-that is when
the ground is not actually frozen.
We do nearly all of our planting here
in North Carolina,in late October, in
November, December, January, Feb
ruary or March. We could plant a
little earlier in fall and later in spring,
but during these months the straw
berry plant is so easy to live that we
never fail to get good stand. In
fact, though we annually plant from
100 to 200 acres in strawberries, we
rarely find it necessary to do any re-
planting at all.
Nor do we have to rush the work
or slight any part of it. The land
/
intended for strawberries we plant
in COW peas the previous summer.
These peas are sown in drills and
given two plowings, no hoe work be-
ing necessary. AS soon as the pea
vines mature they are turned under.
They can be cut and dried for forage
without much loss to the soil, as it
is the roots in which the nitrogen,
collected by the plant from the at
mosphere, is stOredI The turning
under is done early in September.
By the middle of October the vines
have rotted, or at least, got tender
enough to allow the thorough prep
aration of tho soil.
We then replow the land, run it
off three feet apart, SOW in the drill
! 500 pounds cotton seed meal per
acre and throw up light list or
bed on this. This list is knocked off
very low and the plants set Is to 20
inches apart in the row, as the soil
may be more or less fertile, and the
variety planted more or less ram
pant grower. The other fertilizing
properties needed-sulphate of pot
ash and acid phosphate, are both ap-
piled as top dressings later on. Di-
rections for these applications will
| be given in due time.

For turnips select fresh land of a
sandy nature, manure heavily with
barnyard manure and plow under.
Keep ground plowed at regular in
tervals of a week, or more, also har-
row after each plowing. When ready
to sow seed about the last week in
August or the first week in Septem-
Der, lay off your rows about 21a feet
apart; SOW seed in drill thick enough
to insure a good stand. Use fresh
seed. EARLY Flat Dutch is an excel
lent variety. A little phosphate OF
good commercial fertilizer, applied
to soil, would aid greatly in produc-
ing a good crop. When they are
we'll up, set the cultivator and thin
to inches apart. Give them three
or four good workings this will pro-
duce a good crop.-G. T. Garner,

SUGGESTIONS From Entomologist Nc
'oc., c..+bv That Our Readers Will Find it to
T,sir Interest to Study.
-nondence of The Progressive Farmer.
0i The time for sowing fall grain is
lose at hand. Thousands of dol
lars will probably be lost by careless
~ortb Carolina farmers who will
COW seed infected by spores of smuts.
coadsmen should be required to fur
.isb seed already treated to kill the
,mrt spores. But as they will not
= nresent do this, no careful farmer
,bould sow any seed wheat or oats
rithout treating them to prevent
smut in the crop.
The following two fungicides are
tbe best for treating seed grain:
BLUE stone Copper sulphate) 1
nound. Water 25 gallons'or p barrel.
oliver of sulphur potassium
slphide) II pounds. Water 25 gal
Ions or "a barrel.
No. l is for wheat. No. 2 is for
oats They cannot be used inter
changeably.
Place seed wheat in clean bur
Iap sack-not dirty fertilizer bag.
Plunge sack into solution 1 and soak
for 10 or ID hours. Remove and
drain sack for1O minutes ;then plunge
into a thin whitewash made by
sIaki1fe 2 pounds stone lime in II gals.
y barreD water. Soak 10 minutes.
Now empty sack upon clean barn
floor and spread the seed in a layer
about 2 inches thick. Shovel grain
over twice a day until dry. If a
seed drill is to be used the seed must
be quite dry, which will require 2 or
3weeks. 1t may be advisable to dry
in direct sun shine. To do this spread
seed on sheets on a latticed stage.
Take under cover at night and in
vet wea tIrer. IF grain is sown by
land it may be sown at once after
removing from lime bath.
For oats treat seed in same man
ner, using solution No. 2. Soak for
q hours. No lime water is needed
IN this case. If time is lacking, in
stead of soaking oat seed for "a
hours in solution 2, use 4 pounds of
liver of sulphur to 25 gallons of
water and soak seed only 2 hours.
Then dry as above or SOW at once.
These treatments are troublesome,
but they often double the yield and
should on no account be omitted. Nc
hrmer should purchase grass seeds
Or crimson or other clovers for fall
aeding without first having a sample
analyzed at the State Department OF
Agriculture. The market is full OF
poor and adulterated seed.

LIKES THE PAPER.

I have been a subscriber to The
Progressive Farmer almost ever
since it had existence. I read several
papers every week, and when want
the unbiased truth I go to The Pro
gressive Farmer to find 1T. I was de-
lighted with the conservative course
it pursued in the heated campaign
Just ended. No farmer can afford
to be without the paper. He can get
information by reading the paper
that he needs very badly in his line
of business. As for the Chat column,
it will pay all young people to read
the interesting letters. The paper
has a religious tone about it that I
admired. G. Adler, Davidson Co.,

Every year, just before seeding
time, run the seed wheat through
the tanning mill twice, thereby
grading out all the small, shrunken
grains, and saving the large, plump,
heavy and healthy wheat to SOW.
Such seed will raise fine, large, heavy
wheat, make a larger yield per acre
and be almost free from smut While
many of the farmers around here
are complaining of smut, ours is al
most free from it. Smut, think, is
mostly caused by sowing the small
shrunken grains, and taking the
large heavy wheat to market.-John
Hilderbrand
