COMING TO GEORGIA.
II. II. Fitzgerald Preparing to Locate

T.. II. Fitzgerald Preparing to Locate
Another Colony in This state.
In a letter to the Atlanta Consti-
tuition, Mr.. P. H. Fitzgerald of In
dianapolis. Ind, who founded the
town of Fitzgerald in Irwin county.
says that he is about to bring 10000
people to Georgia, and that they will
begin to come next year. In the
course of his letter he says: 1t has
now been six years since 1 landed in
the state of Georgia, followed by a
little band of 1000 people, seeking
homes in the Sunny South. The re-
suit of that undertaking is well known
throughout the whole country. The
settlement of that colony in Irwin
county, where to-day those people are
surrounded with all the comforts of
life, we'll pleased with their new home
and the flourishing little city they
have built up. the farming country
they have settled all transformed
from a wilderness of pine forests.
After much thought and consider
alton, l have promised once more to
take up the undertaking and we are
now forming the second great body of
good people to locate in the South.
My object is to lead this new colony
into the state of Georgia, using the
same methods and along the same
lines as the great colony Of Fitzgerald
Ca. was formed where so many
good people have homes that virtual

Feeding Bone Meal and Wood Ashes


In experiments conducted by Prof.
HenrN as to the advantage of feeding
bone meal and wood ashes to fatten
ing pigs in combination with corn meal,
it was found that the effect of the
bone meal and wood ashes was to save
about 2S per cent. of the total amount
fed to produce 100 pounds of gain live
weight. Bone meal doubled the strength
of the thigh bones, while ashes were
only slightly inferior in value in this
respect. The results show the great
usefulness of bone meal and ashes,
especially where much corn is fed to
hogs.
In these experiments the pigs have
been we'll started in their development
when the trial began. They were di-
vided into three lots of two each. Lot
one received corn meal with salt and
water. Lot two received in addition
hardwood ashes, while lot three was
fed a spoonful of bone meal at each
feed in place of ashes. In one of the
trials, which lasted 112 days, two pigs
consumed 10.5 pounds of bone meal and
rs pounds of salt, and during the same
time two other pigs consumed thirty
three pounds of wood ashes and eight
pounds of salt. The earth in the yard
in which the pigs exercised was cover
ed with boards, to prevent the animals
roofing in it and eating it, as they
would otherwise have done, especially
those which had no bone meal or ashes
to resort to, and consequently would
have impaired the results of this ex-
pertinent.
When bone meal was fed 4S7 pounds
of corn produced 100 pounds of gain;
when ashes were given, 491 pounds of
corn were required, while 629 pounds
had to be fed to obtain the same gain
when neither bone meal nor ashes were
given.

when to Sell Hogs.

1t is well-known fact among feeders
that the first fifty or hundred pounds
of flesh is much easier to place upon
the back of any animal than the last
fifty or hundred pounds. This we have
found to be the case of the feeding of
any and all classes of live stock. The
reason for this may be clearly seen and
understood when we consider that it
is one of natures laws that the young
animal converts nearly every ounce
of food directly into live weight.
In the mature animal this is not the
case. The animal has secured its
growth, and nature in that particular
has practically ceased to so aid the
feeder in producing the additional
weight. The older animal can. through
the use of good forcing method, be
made to lay on fat quite rapidly but
in any case it will require a greater
amount of both time, and expense, and
will not be accomplished so easily.
With the growing herd of pigs we
are able to make from 176
to 200 pounds of prime pork
that may be placed in the
market at the end of five or six
months. this with a little more effort
than the mere placing in good CON
dition for more extended feeding.
The increase of demand and the COM
parative high price of feed have dur
ing the past year, tended toward placing
upon the market ANIMALS of the hog
class at a younger age and at a less
weight then ever before. In many,
perhaps the majority of cases, has the
time between the period of narrowing
of the SOW and that of the marketing
of the young pigs been reduced. This
has shortened the feeding and growing
period, and by so doing has proved
a benefit to our farmers who are in
the habit of raising pigs for market
purposes. 1t furnishes an earlier, and,
in most cases. a better market, and
admits of a 1essening in the cost of
production.

Snec1uIIeu ".
We notice in one of our exchanges
that some writer's contribute articles
under this title, seeming to think that
specialized farming is necessarily sim
gle crop farming, or the growing of
one certain crop to the exclusion of all
others, says the Practical Farmer. OF
course this is specialization with
vengeance. But real specialized farm
ing cannot properly be done without
diversfcation. The farmer whose soil
and climate are specially suited TO the
production of a certain money crop
should be a specialist with that crop.
But he cannot be such, and bring his
special crop to it's highest production
by simply growing that crop year after
year on the same land. To specialize
properly he must diversity his crops
and so arrange the rotation that all his
minor crops shall tend to the increased
productiVeness of his soil in the money
crop If he is a wheat specialist then
let him arrange a rotation of crops
that will give the wheat crop the most
favorable position and will tend to in
crease the productiveness of his soil
in wheat till he can in effect make
the subsidiary crops pay for the grow
ing of the wheat and have the wheat
as a real surplus money crop. The
same will be the proper course with
any other money crop. The tobacco
growers in some sections are this year
in bad way, and at the mercy of
the INSCRIPTIONS tobacco trust, simply
because they have put their sole reh-
ance in tobacco with the expensive
use of commercial fertilizers alone,
and have neglected the improvement
of their land by a proper rotation and
the feeding of stock. And such will

and fail to farm well. Cotton, the
least exhaustive of all crops on the

widespread soil depletion through the
single crop system and the selling of
the seed off the land, for the seed OF
cotton is the part of the crop that ex-
hausts the land, and should be re-
