Editor Arch Johnson is not altogether free
from prejudice. He is quite sure it seems. that
only the ploughman knows anything definite
about agriculture Accordingly, he has allowed
himself to speak of the classic for beginners in
agriculture, book written by shady farm

johnson might have designated as sawless car

no man can learn agriculture from his own Inn

reliance there could be little no progress IN
the science or art, whichever it may most prop

Nessrs. Editors: Being in correspondence with
large number of farmers from all the States, L
wish to endorse what has been said by the Editor
and others in regard to their using printed sta,
tionery We often get letters that we can read
without trouble until we come to the name and
nostoffce Sometimes we have to lay these over
until we can consult the cashier of our bank, the
postmaster, and other experts that we meet And
after all have spent their opinion, we come back
to the office and guess at it the best we can and
forward a reply. Sometimes in about two weeks
afterward our letter is returned to us Marked
party Unknown" and we look uD the letter and
try again.
We want to suggest to any to whom 1T is not
convenient to get printed paper and envelopes
that they buy rubber stamp and pad, and stamp
their addresses on both paper and envelopes This
need not cost more than forty cents, and will last
for years They are advertised in The Progress

oats are planted thinnest land it may be better
to add little ammoniated fertilizer to give
them a start. If the land will make Is bushels of
corn or 700 pounds of seed cotton to the acre,
leave off the ammonia in the fall and apply nj

so as to smooth them somewhat. The late varie-
ties of oats, such the grazing and Virginia
grays will do we'll in an open furrow, but they
do not yield well. They make an abundance of
forage. But the average farmer wants oats and
not straw If the Cotton Growers Association
persuades farmers to small grain there will
be great demand for seed oats and wheat, and
no one need be afraid of making too much of
either. This fall there will be strong demand
for both There is more money in oats than
wheat and they just good to restore land.

THOUGHTS FOR FARMERS.
The Importance of the Oat Crop.
Chapel Hill, n. @.

The farmers of the Carolinas are waking up to
the necessity of sowing small grain. That is the
only possible way to secure rotation OF crops,
anu without wise rotation the soil will get poor
er every year. Several inquiries have recently
been made in regard to the open furrow plan OF
sowing oats. Many farmers have given up the
crop, because the better varieties will not stand
our winters when sown broadcast, or with wheat
drill In Georgia this year the Commissioner
OF Agriculture solicited many reports. No farm
er that sowed in the open drill lost his crop. A
lew stated that their oats were partly killed

The Compost Heap.

Messrs Editors: In these days, when CONNER
cial fertilizers are largely used by farmers, the
compost heap is quite overlooked, Many, In fact,
especially among the young men, scarcely know
the meaning of the term Many regard 1T as old
fashioned and unnecessary, and too trouble
some to pay for itself. The truth is, it is more
valuable for being old-fashioned. Many OF the
best things are old for they are the result of
well worth trouble Every farmer would do wise
ly to have a compost heap constant factor
in farming. No sooner has he spread one on his
fields than he should start another. Nothing is
simpler, nothing of equal value to him requires
less labor His main reliance should be upon 1t,
together with the clovers, peas and other turn
under nitrogenous crops much more than upon
commercial fertilizers with their highly stlmulat-
ing qualities.
II is easily made, easily kept up Stable-ma-
nure is its foundation hence its proper location is
in the stable lot As often the stables are
cleaned (and that should be often), let the ma
nure be thrown into a heap near by and thin
layer of the adjacent soil thrown upon 1t, thus
keering a shallow trench around 1T to catch the
rain and keep the edges of the heap moist, and
also preventing the escape of the ammonia From
time to time light layer of slack lime should be
thrown on, and whenever practicable woods mold
or swamp mud should be hauled and thrown on 1t.
So it grows gradually and as it is dug and carted
out it's ingredients. fermented by natural heat and
already intermingled by their contact and pres
sure may be thoroughly commmgled by
spreading and ploughing.
In the same manner heap can be formed for
the garden of poultry manure, slops from house
and kitchen, soap-suds, etc.. with some stable-ma-
nure alternating with layers of garden soil.
Experience has amply shown that compost IS
the best direct fertilizer, whether for field gar
den. Tt may be followed up In the case OF LANDS
naturally barren, or exhausted by over-cropping
and had tillage with a moderate and iudicious
nse of commercial fertilizers and 1T would pay the
farmer to purchase the ingredients of these and

There are new developments In the

the question relating to the matter is
getting to be a many sided one.
1t was up In the meeting OF the Light

some sharp discussion, which, however,
was cut short by a suggestion OF Chair
