Growing Long Staple Cotton
Seven Rules of Success as
w orked Out in South Car
Dina Experiments.
Progressive Farmer.

Progressive Farmer.
About year ago our Farmers
Union Bureau gathered in and
threshed over a lot of different
experiments among cotton grow
ers in South Carolina on the SUBJ
ject of growing upland long sta
pie cotton, which pointed out the
following facts as a general con-
clusior: Many farmers who
planted Florodora and other
varieties of long cotton In mar
row rows and close in the drill
like they usually grow common
cotton on thin or average lands
made failures, sometimes not
getting over half as much long
cotton as they did short cotton,
on the same land and same
treatment.
SEVEN RULES FOR SUCCESS
Success in growing long cotton
in upper half of South Carolina
depends upon these important
conditions of soil and system
First-Deep plowed, rich soil
gives the best lint.
Second-In good lands, rows
not less than 5 feet wide and not
less than 3 feet in drill.
Third-If commercial manure
is used, put in no ammoniated
fertilizer (acid and potash only)
when preparing the bed for the
row.
Fourth-Apply nitrate Of soda
in every other middle row when
cotton is nearly half grown, and
the other half nitrate soda in
other middles when giving last
plowing.
Fifth-No rule as to the amount
of fertilizers necessary can be
given here without knowing the
character of the different lands.
This can be judged best by those
acquainted with each plot OF
land and crops previously grown.
Sixth-As to cultivation. Run
weeder over rows every five or
seven days if weather permits
until plants have three or four
leaves, then thin out to stand
using shallow running cultivators
to a finish, never running more
than twice to finish each row,
continuing cultivation until
blooms appear.
Seventh--One good clean hoe
ing at thinning time is all the
hand hoeing we usually give cot.
ton on lands where weede rs
can be used just right. By this
system we grew 2,170 pounds
long seed cotton on our best plot
last year, and averaged 1,340
pounds seed cotton on the crop,
averaging less than three pounds
of seed cotton to one of lint.

Another Farmers Expert
ence in Making Cotton
Without Hand Chopping.

without Hand Chopping.
w. III. Morton, of Clarke Ga, in
Southern Cultivator.
"When cotton or corn has
been planted (and commencing
before it CONES through the
ground), a fine-tooth harrow,
covering from ten to fifteen or
twenty feet in breadth, can be
rapidly run over the cotton or
corn field which effectively de.
stroys grass and weeds, and be
adjusted even to thin, both corn
and cotton. Some of the best
cotton in Clarke County last
year was grown entirely without
hand-hoeing.
And then in moment we are
ready for further labor-saving
tools a cultivator. When the
old one horse pillow is used for
blowing cotton, you run two,
three and even four times to the
row. You can use a two-horse
riding cultivator that will strad-
die a row, thus cultivating every
trip forth and back two whole
rows, one man and two horses
doing the work that would be re-
quired by two"
Your letter received asking
me what l made with two hands
and not using any hoes. I made
500 bushels Of corn, five bales of
cotton on four acres, 500 bales of
hay, 100 bushels of peas, oats
] do not know as did not thresh
them. l also have 700 apple
trees, 600 peach trees, canta
ioupes and melons and garden,
my wood to cut and split and
haul up, and / don't think that
they were in my crop more than
one-fourth of their time, as had
nothing for them to,do so hired
them to my brother farmers who
liked to pay $1.25 per day for
chopping cotton and hoeing corn.
Where l used to have six hands
now do the work with two, 80
you see l don't need the four
hoe hands. ] am satisfied that
this method comes nearer settling
the labor question than any plan
that | have struck. l don't think
my plan would suit a man that
did not prepare his land and have
it thoroughly pu'verized before
planting. BY my method | hoe
and plow over fifteen acres in
one day with one horse and one
hand, and never allow crust to
form on my land then l save
moisture and kill all the small
grass. l don't say my plan will
work after man gets in the
grass, for it will not, and he will
never get in the grass if he keeps
his harrows running. The time
to kill grass is before it comes
through the ground, or just as it
gets through. / commence using
weeder and harrows jnst aa
soon as | get through planting
before the crop comes up.

PICKPOCKET INCENTER
Rev. I. E. Brown Minus His
 Watch-Waiiinq For Car.

The Rev Francis T. Brown, pastor of the First Methodist church of New Haven, had his watch picked from his pocket while standing in front of Dex- ter's drug store last evening. The minister telephoned to the local police from New Haven about 12 o'clock last night and told of the loss of the watch. He said he was waiting for a New Haven car, and about five min utes before he boarded the car he took out his watch to notice the time. He had been on the car only short time when he was surprised to find that his watch was missing. It was an Elgin timepiece and the minister's name was engraved on the back and in the case was a picture of his wife. He prizes the watch highly, or rather did prize it highly.
