acres with go acres in cultivation
with houses in proportion valued at
$500 it is doing him an injustice. The
$500 should be changed to $1,000 or
$1,100. Because a man has a larger
number of acres than his neighbors
the valuation should not be reduced
on his land any more than on his
money in the bank.
Why should land which is the
safest investment in the world have
such difference in valuation?
We we're surprised several years
ago when serving as township asses
sor to find lands which were exactly
alike valued so differently. One little
farm was valued at $15 per acre
while adjoining lands were valued
from 50 to S.. This may have been
an extreme case but it would be we'll
to inquire into the valuation placed
on your neighbors' property and see
that all are treated alike IF every
one paid his just part of taxes moro
money could be raised without in
creasing the per cent of taxes. There
are lands in this State valued at 81
per acre which readily sell at SIS per
acre. Town and city lots can be
found nearly everywhere in the same
condition.

About Raising Cabbage Seed.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer

Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
The question asked by your Nash
County correspondent in the issue of
May 10, 1903, in reference to how to
raise cabbage seed in this country to
be as good as those we buy, should
be answered by some one from about
Blowing Rock" in Watauga Coun-
ty. I was once informed by an en-
thusiastic cabbage raiser of that
county that collard seed from the
eastern part of our State planted up
there would make hard, solid cabbage
heads the first year. That the seed
from these cabbages would make
cabbage in the east the first year.
But these being allowed to run to
seed in the east would the second
year be collards. IF this be so, your
question is answered.

Number 10.

connection is to plant early. Some
wait until all other crops are planted
and then plant the rice crop. This
is altogether wrong; the rice crop
should be about the very first to re
ceive attention after spring opens
and if planted in April, a second and
even a third cutting may be had be-
fore frost, and sometimes the second
cutting is better than the first. Of
course at every cutting little fer
tilizer should be applied to keep a
backbone as 1t were in the soil and
cultivation and attention should be
given it.
The variety to plant is also to be
well considered because a good deal
depends on this. The old variety
that requires from one hundred and
thirty to one hundred and sixty days
to make crop is not as profitable as
the newer varieties that make in
ninety to one hundred days. The
japanese variety is the best all round
to plant, for it makes in ninety days
and is a small plump grain and more
certain to fill than the older and
larger grains. We have known crops
of rice of these old varieties that
never amounted to anything as far
as grain was concerned for when the
time came for filing out, something
was lacking in the soil and hay was
all the crop yielded. The best expla-
nation for this state of affairs was
an unbalanced fertilizer used, def
cheney in potash preventing the grain
from filing out or perhaps an excess
of phosphoric acid or nitrogen or
both.
But this holds true for all crops
as we'll as rice. A properly balanced
fertilizer is necessary to give salts
factory results in all cases. The ques-
tion most often asked in connection
with this crop is the yield per acre.
To this I would say all depends on
conditions, treatment of the crop and
the season. Forty bushels per acre
is not an uncommon yield but the
half of that is a very satisfactory
crop taking everything into consid-
Grafton At this time of the year a
great many inquiries come to hand
regarding this crop, and the forego-
ing are a few remarks on it prompted
by these inquiries.

Upland Rice Culture.

Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
The rice of the Southern States
is of more Importance than a good
many people have any idea of, for it
is very satisfactory crop to grow
if properly managed from the start.
Land intended for this crop should
be well plowed in the spring and al
lowed to lie for time untouched SC
that the soil will get well packed be-
fore planting, for rice unlike most
crops does best in land that has been
plowed for some time before plant
ing the seed. But when ready to
plant the crop a cultivator or heavy
harrow should be run over the land
once each day for the purpose of
breaking the crust that has formed
since the plowing has been done. At
ter the first working in this way the
fertilizer for the crop should be
broadcasted and worked into the soil
at the next working.
The fertilizer used should be of a
high grade to give best results; on an
ordinary piney woods land it is ad-
visable to use about 800 pounds per
acre of fertilizer analyzing eight
per cent potash, six per cent phos-
phoric acid and about four per cent
nitrogen. A fertilizer of this grade
will come high in price, but like most
things the most expensive is the
cheapest in the end, for liberal treat
ment with fertilization of all crops
is true economy because it insures
paying crops and the labor on we'll
fertilized crop does not cost any
more as on crop not well fertilized
The mode of planting the crop diff
fers with the section of where it is
grown. In some places where the
soil is stiff and very fertile naturally,
the seed is broadcasted about two
bushels to the acre and narrowed in.
The favorite method in most of the
Gulf States is to plant in drills thir-
ty inches apart; others plant in hills
about ten inches apart in drills about
two feet wide. The latter mode I
practice entirely now because the
crop can be cultivated as it's needs
demand it and grass and weeds can
be kept under control easier where it
is in hills than in a continuous drill.
AS already stated this crop on the
Southern farm is very profitable
one, and one that hardly ever fails to
give good results where conditions
are made right by the grower. l say
made right, because some farmers
by their slipshod methods fail to
make a crop of it and then blame the
crop whereas the blame lies entirely
with the man that made the crop.
One very important thing in this

AGRICULTURE
HARRY FARMERS TALKS.


Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
The oat crop will be almost a COM
plete failure this year. Our own
crop started off nicely in the early
spring. The land was well prepared
and the prospect was for an extra
fine crop. But soon after the rain
and warm weather in March we no.
ticed some of the bottom blades were
turning red or yellow. After a few
weeks they improved a little, but as
soon as the weather turned off dry
they commenced to turn yellow, and
growth almost ceased.
THE Pc R CONDITION OF OATS.
1t is not rust, as some of the news
papers state. Rust will color the
hands when rubbed on the blades a
snuff color. but we have not found
any on our oats. 1t must be the un-
usual weather we have had this
spring that has caused the trouble.
We have been unable to discover any
insects about the roots. We think it
Is about the same thing that affects
corn in the summer. A wet spell COM
ing on corn when it is making a
rapid growth and is punching to tas-
sci, and then turns off dry, will make
the corn blades turn red and then
ycIlaw;it Is commonly called "fring,"
and Is apt to produce a very light
crop. The same weather that we
haEr haI on oats this spring should
1t com" on corn would produce the
effects as stated above. Early or
fail sovn eats are making the best
crop AMI early planted corn is not
apt to ho injured as much as late
rlant:n-s.
The failure of the oat crop this
YEAR Is not going to make us aban-
con that crop, as we have been sue
c'1'aa@ nearly every year for twenty
Years in making fair crops. Some
"...rN failures are necessary in order
TO make us study crop conditions and
Nv these means make better farmers.
Rather told us once when we tried a
certain business and failed, that we
"7eoed some set backs to make us
per~evcre harder next time.
