Farm Miscellany.
ARTICHOKES.

have read several articles in the
Southern Planter from Prof. Massey
severely critlcising the artichOke as
a farm crop. He calls them weeds
and says that when they once get a
start that it is almost impossible to
kill them. This is quite different
from my experience with the arti-
choke. 1 had a patch of artichOkes
that l turned a hog into last winter
and there was not a dozen of the
sprouts come up on the entire plot
the nextspring. Five minutes work
would have destroyed the last rem
nant of artichOkes. ArtichOkes are
easily raised. More hog feed of the
best quality for growing pigs can be
raised on an acre of ground planted
to artichokes than anything else l
know. They are so easily raised and
look to be of such a watery nature
that many people regard them as be-
ing very low in food value, but the
chemical analysis shows them to be
of greater value as a stock food than
any other of the root and tuber class.
The Government analysis as given
in Bulletin No. % of the U. S. De
partment of Agriculture shows them
to be richer in protein by one-half
per cent. than potatoes. It also shows
them to be twice as rich in fat as
potatoes, and nearly as rich in car
bohydrates. The bulletin gives the
artichokes as being much more valu-
able than any other of the root crops.

B A IN TENNESSEE.

The prices paid for the crop of 1900
have been fairly good, ranging from
8 cents for leaf to as low as 2 cents
for Jugs, or say 6 cents round,
though some crops have sold for z
cents and a few for s cents round
The tobacco trade goes on all the
year. The tobacco is inspected and
sold at auction, except such as is
sold loose to rehandlers and stem
mers. When priced, the bulk Of the
crop is sold on the open markets
during May and June; when sold
loose, from December to April. The
old crop is generally all sold before
the new crop is ready for the mar
ket.
Most of the tobacco grown in Ten
nesse is for expectation. 1t finds
but few buyers among domestic
manufacturers except to the manu-
f~acturers of snuff. The largest and
best customer for Tennessee tobacco
is the United Kingdom of England,
Scotland, Ireland and Wales. The
Italian Government and Swiss Con-
federacy take the best types of Ten
nessee tobacco. The longest leaf,
but not the finest, is taken for con
sumption in Africa. France, Ger
many and Spain are all good GUS
toners for Tennessee tobacco. Ger,
many takes the richest, known in
the market as black fats.
The varieties of tobacco grown are
only those that will mature with
heavy boIy, plenty of gum and oilv
material and strong in nicotine. No
Cuban or Havana or seed leaf varie-
ties are planted in the State. Some
White Burley is grown in the upper
Cumberland river district, and a few
years ago the yellow leaf of North
Carolina was grown with profit in
east Tennessee, Greenville, in Greene
county, being about the center Of
production. The tobacco trnsts
however, with their whitening tOucb
have about destroyed this branch of

GRASSES ON THE RED HILLS.

Thousands of acres of red hill
lands in the Carolinas after being
denuded of timber, have produced Il
few scanty crops of cotton or corn,
then lapsed into unsightly old fields,
OvergrOwn with weeds, briers and
bushes. The heavy, washing rains
have quilted and disfgured their
barren slopes, and yearly they have
become more worthless. These lands
at best are too sterile to grow the Or
binary clovers and grasses, but they
will grow Bermuda and johnson
grasses. Their tenacity of life is a
point in their favor in this case.
Only those grasses with long, vigor
Gus roots penetrating into the deep
subsOil can withs aud the hot,
drOuthT summers, prevent the soil
fr m washing and make a permanent
sod on the ordinary red clay hills. If
these hill lands are ever to become
anything but the unsightly quilted
wastes of prOfitless soil thsy now
are, the prejudice against Bermuda
and Johnson grasses will have TO be
cast aside, and farmers give m re at
tentiOn to their cultivation.-E. E.

The Dairy.
FEEDING DAIRY lows FOR PROFIT.

Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
The tendency of modern feeding IS
to U.S. more concentrated foods than
the animals will. stand, and for the
dairy this is certainly not altogether
advisable. Concentrated food used
to a imite1 extent certainly in
creases the milk supply, and when
carried to the limit the increase for
the time being is large. But such
an increase will not continue. The
effect is only temporary, especially
if the concentrated foods are fed to
the exclusion of all others. If a
dairyman wishe to make a recO2 d
for Il given time t. day he will feed
concentrated foods almost entirely,
and he will gam his point. Wheth r
the COWS are scrub animals or high
bred ones, their milk supply will te
tremend, usly increased. But in
time permanent injury is done to
the animals. After the stimulating
effect has passed off they r more
than apt to degenerate, and the nor
NAL supply will be smaller than ever.
There are many instances of dairy
men being imposed upon in purchas
ing COWS through such deceptive
methods of feeding. The high rec
ords they see with their own eyes
are not permanent and cannot be
maintained when they take the COWS
home and feed them on ordinary
food.
In feeding the dairy COWS consid-
GRAFTON of their future must first be
thought of. The supply of milk
must be permanent and not tempo
rary. Consequently any sy-tem of
feeding that will redrce the normal
or injure the animals should be o
demned. Concentrated foods are all
right in their place, and every dairy
man a avail himself of them to a
certain extent to halp increase the

depend upon variety of food, in
which grass is the great foundation,
if their health is to be retained and
their normal yield of milk kept up
Grass is the great milk food for
cows, and it is what nature intended
that they should have. It must con-
stitute the chief food of the COWS
throughout d go d part of the year.
In summer the dairy COWS should
never be without succulent food,
and in winter as much of 1T as pc.
sible should be furnished. Cows
fed with a great variety of food and
with Il fair amount of succulent food
can then stand concentrated food as
an extra diet to stimulate milk pro
ductiOn. In this way no harm will
be done by this artificial method of
feeding but if we put the COWS on a
concentrated food diet to the neglect
of Il great variety of other foods, we
IN st sooner or later pay the penalty.

Principles of Agriculture. By Prof.
LII Bailey, of Cornell University.
Handsomely illustrated. 300 pages.
Price, $1.25.
We really do not believe that the
average North Carolina farmer can
anywhere invest 1925 to better ad-
vantage than by sending that
amount to us for a copy of Prof. L.
H. Bailey's principles of Agricul-
ture." This is a work which tells
the "whys and wherefOres''-the
principles-of the business" of
farming. 1t is written by a man of
great ability who knows his subject
by long years of actual experience
and scientific study. The farmer
who ecures a copy of this work
and studies it during his spare
moments this summer will not only
find much pleasure thereby, but will
find greater interest in his work, a
broader view of his profession and
the probability of making many
more dollars as a result of his study.
There are many books upon the
market, but not for many years, we
firmly believe, has n been issued
which the average reader of this
paper so badly needs. The work is
handsomely bound, we'll illustrated,
clearly printed and contains 300
pages. Send US ST. 5 and get a copy.
