not to put you in the pleasant embar-

adapted to each section of country,
there would seem to be no plausible
excuse why any southern farmer
should fail to grow his own forage and
some for market.
Owing to the length of our farming
season, considerable latitude is allow
ed for selecting the time for planting;
it ranges from the middle of April to
the latter part of November. Having
determined what special crop to grow,
he should select the site for growing
it upon such land as still lays some
claim to fertility, a rich loamy soil
being preferable, then prepare the land
thoroughly by breaking deeply, for
therein lies the main secret of success.
In the event of severe drOuth,
moisture will thus be supplied; or, if
on the other hand a protracted wet
spell should follow, this deep plow-
ing will have a tendency to drain the
land. This breaking must be some
time prior to sowing and the land har-
rowed repeatedly till fine seeded is
obtained, when it will be ready for
the manure.
If the land contains a fair percent
age of humus, as it should, some suit
able commercial fertilizer containing
elements of plant food lacking in the
soil, should be applied in such pro-
portion as the character of the land
and crop demand. The legumes, as a
rule, require no nitrogen applied arti
ficially. a high-grade commercial phOs-
phate being sufficient.
If, however the land be devoid of
humus, commercial fertilizers will not
pay and main reliance should be
placed on stable manure. This should
be finely pulveriZed, scattered broad
cast and narrowed, or lightly plowed
in with the seed the amount used de-
pending more upon the supply avail
able than upon any other one thing.
1t is difficult to apply too much. Ere
quently it is advisable in early spring
to give grass land an application Of
some form of commercial manure con-
tanning liberal supply of nitrogen.
A good formula for the purpose
would be 400 pounds acid phosphate
and 300 pounds each of muriate of
potash and nitrate of soda, the whole
to be used on one acre as tOp-dres-
sing.
From the great variety of forage
crops within easy reach of Southern
farmers, no fixed rule can be laid
down as the exact time when cutting
should be in order. but most of the
grasses should be cut when in full
bloom and due care should be eXer
cised never to permit any forage crop
to remain uncut till it looks parched
and reaches that stage commonly des-
ignated as dead ripe" The loss oc-
curing from >shattering of grain, or
foliage. as well as the deteriOra ton of
the product itself, proves of serious
character. Cut only when dry. eX-
posing to the sun only long enough to
cure properly; then it should be
housed
The profits begin the moment the
farmer makes up his mind to grow
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1906-02-28

forage crops; where they end, will
depend upon circumstances over which
he alone has control. If made a
factor in systematic rotation and
this crop follows small grain, making
two successive crops off the same land
yearly, the cost is very much lessened,
while the profits are necessarily in
creased. If so disposed, the farmer
may convert his whole crop into beef,
or mutton for market, thereby retain
ing the entire product of his land, to
be returned to it in the shape of fer
tility.
The Iegumes offer the best and most
economical means of restoring this
loss of nitrogen not alone from the
nitrogen gathered and stored in the
soil by them, but also from their deep
ly penetrating roots, which abstract
and pump to the surface the dormant
vitality from the subsOil, rendering
available for plant food substances
which otherwise would remain inert.
They also materially add to the value
of the land, improving its physical
condition by supplying humus.
Perhaps nothing is better suited to
the farmers needs than the cOwpea.
1t is one of the most important agents
for the purpose in question and our
dependence upon it is ever on the in
crease. Thousands of bushels of seed
are yearly exported to foreign coun-
tries. There has arisen prejudice In
the minds of many against this crop,
some claiming inability to cure it
properly, even under the most favor
able conditions, when in point OF fact,
there is no crop more easily or success
fully handled, even under very ad-
verse weather conditions. This mis-
taken idea has in numerous instances,
barred the cOwpea from the place it
should occupy upon every southern
farm
When sOwn i'm conjunction with
early amber cane, in the proportion
of one bushel of peas to half bushel
of cane seed, a forage is the resultant
that for quantity combined with ex-
cellent quality is exceedingly difficult
to excel. And when such forage readi-
ly commands $1.1O bale of 100
pounds, as it has done here till recent
Iy. if would seem that inducement
sufficient had been offered to cause
farmers not only to grow their own
forage, but a supply for their fellow
man also.
AS to the probable yield per acre of
forage, this will greatly vary, much
depending upon the nature of the crop
and the treatment it receives. A few
examples of certain forage crops
grown in Georgia may be selected
from a work by the commissioner of
agriculture of that state. Hon. o. b.

he Best Method of Growing
Pecans Commercially.

ie address of Mr.. H. NJ. String
fellow before the National Nut Grow
ers' Association at Dallas, Texas, is
reported in Farm and Ranch as fol-
lows:
In discussing the subject assigned
me 1 will divide it into three heads:
First, the best form of tree trans
pla1t ting; second, the best prepara-
ton of the ground, and best method
of planting, and third, the best after
treatment of the trees.
AS to the best form of trees. In an
article by III. S. Watson, in the Octo-
Der issue of the American Nut Jour-
nal on "HOw to Transplant Pecan
Trees,'' he says: ''The nurseryman
should have the tree carefully dug
with about 80 inches of root"
That suggestion is evidently in line
with Chas. Douring's statement that
''the ideal method of moving a tree
would be to take it up with its roots
entire.'' a statement which 1 thought
all progressive fruit growers now rec
Ognized as a mistake, the very OPP
posite having been proved to be true
of all kinds all over the country set
with practically no root at all.
While of course the digging of trees
with such length of tap root and holes
of sufficient depth to receive them in
natural position, involves a heavy
expense to the nurseryman as well as
the planter, that is a small cOnsidera-
ton compared with the permanent in
jury done to the tree, for universal
experience has shown that those so
planted are forever dwarfed i'm COM
parisOn with Seeding trees that have
never been moved. Such being the
case if by any means we can prac-
ticaliy convert rooted tree into a
seed, as experience has proved that
we can by close rOOt-pruning, it GER
tainly behooves us to do so, thereby
compelling the tree to re-establish
itself on several new strong tap
roots, instead of on many lateral, sur
face ones, a condition utterly repug
nant to the natural instincts of the
pecan.
While | had never tried this expert
ment and made the statement in
Farm and Ranch last spring that
pecan trees had a way of discarding
the long tap roots which growers go
to so much expense to preserve en-
tirely on the authority of Mr.. f. NJ.
Ramsey. of Lampasas, who had tried
it. | feel sure that he knew what he
was talking about. However, 1 do
not mean to say that all long rooted
pecan trees invariably act this way,
