/. OPEN FURROW SOWING OF OATS.
2 BEST VARIETY OF COWPEAS.
g. VELVET BEANS
T. NJ r.. Spring City Tenn.-I. l wish
TO know if the open furrow' system Of
sowing oats will increase the ability Of
the crop TO withstand dry weather in the
spring. If 50. can you give me an idea of
how much more OF ii they will stand and
produce a good crop Spring droughts
ale the home of oats. both spring and
winter, IN this section.
z What variety of coWpeas do YOU con
slider best for hay. and how viii they
compare in yield with the whipporWill?
3. Have YOU any reports onthe velvet
beans offered through these columns by
Cline &Vorne. Of Fort Meade. Fla.
last spring and recommended by him 10
mature seed as far north rs the state Of
Ohio? What was the results?
Answerl My experience has led me
to believe that oats soWn according to the
open furrow plan viii withstand
drought III the spring better. but how
much / cannot say, rs | do not know
how TO definitely express degrees Of
drought The explanation is this: The
land being first wen and deeply broken
with turnplow ana the oats sown, in
open burrows. The plants win form their
crown tWo or three inches lower down
than when covered in the ola way and
the root system win not develop 50 near
lie surface. But spring sown oats viii
soon give away entirely to fail sown

that W. applied POO pounds to irish

IA or 6 years that the Yield was cut
off by ii severe drought in April (not u

he made barrels of merchantable pOta-
toes labout 20 OF rs bushelsl on the
acre. Mi = seems to think that this
result proves chat tie formula was an
right and "a Godsend to Tie farmers whe

| want TO know If I manure them ground

groundpeas all under my groundpeas? 1t
don't seem that the corn would nre as
bad. | VIII thank YOU very mucn 10Y
any suggestion you make on the sub
ject.
Answer-So far as vet discovered there
Is no fertilizer or chemical or particular
treatment that will prevent root rot or
black rot in cotton. The only remedy.
and 1t Is in the nature of a preventive
is not to plant that land in cotton for az
least two years It is a disease or fun
gous affection, that soon fills the SOIL
with It's spores Cor germs. and these
germs will survive a year or two, waiting
for another crop of cotton. 1t is one OF
the blessed advantages Of rotation OF
crops that We may thereby get rid OF fun
gous diseases and also insects that may
attack one crop and not attack olt-
ferent kind of crop Evidently the land
in question is not adapted to cotton. Pos-
sbly it is too wet down deep in the soil
and should be underdrained. 1t is the
place for corn, cane cowpeas and field
Guce oats finely. Plant these crops ana
put your cotton on your higher. thin
ner, dryer soil. One bale to acres,
with 200 pounds Of guano to the acre,
indicates either very poor land or son
radically unsuited to cotton. Isn't II
mucky, black soil, with a good deal OF
white sand it it?
2. know Of no plan to manure your
corn and not fire 1t. [ suspect that 1t Is
not the manure that fires it, bat the Wet
ness and excess OF sour vegetable mat
ter. Undertaking and heavy lining
would cure it OF these defects.
In regard TO the peanuts you shouid
not manure them with complete guano,
but simply acid phosphate and potash, oa

pounds of formula No. ! III the peodllls

PEANUTS FOR HOGS. OR FOR
NIAR<ET

w ". p. Louvale, Ga.-Which. in
your Judgment. would be most profitable
to raise ground peas on an extensive
scale for market or for hogs? Could they
be readily sold? If 50, at about what
prices? BY answering these questions
you will very much oblise.
Answer-If i; were not n paying bust
ness to grow ground peas for sale and
for hog feeding. it would not be done
by any one. Therefore. the best proof
that it will pay is the fact that num-
bers of farmers have long practiced that
policy Whether 1t will pay you is
