Is It Right Here?

Scientists are again locating the
Garden of Eden in the South. It is
still here Il is in Florida, and our
Eden is in some respects unlike the
original Eden. Not that all fruits are
not grown here in abundance and that
flowers grow, bloom and give out
fragrance, but the difference is in this
particular, that the original Eden had
only two inhabitants and these were
driven out. Florida has many and
wants more She wants to become
beehive of busy industry and wants to
distribute her sweets to the people of
all nations, of every cline and tongue.
There is another difference. The
original Garden of Eden had forbidden
fruit. Florida has none. She invites
everyone to pluck of her fruits, eat
and be satisfied There is still another
difference. The original Gardens of
Eden had a willy serpent that begui1ed
its inhabitants to do that which was
evil. Those coming to our Garden of
Eden will not be beguiled to do that
which is evil, but be instructed and en-
couraged to do that which is good.
Come to Florida You will find it
veritable Eden.-Ocala Banner.

s'Shooing" the Flies Off.

We shoe the flies off our cows in
summer with preparation made like
this: Resin one and one-half pounds,
laundry soap two bars, fish oil one
pint, water three gallons. Dissolve
the resin with the soap by heating with
part of the water, writes J. H. Bohn
IN Jersey Bulletin Add the fish oil
with the rest of the water and one
pint Of kerosene. Apply with a spray.
From May until September our COWS
have bluegrass and timothy pasture.
with six pounds wheat bran per day in
two feeds, at $50 o'clock when we
milk. When grass gets short we add
ground ear corn, and green corn, sown
in rows very thick1y for the purpose.
This we feed in the barn, where the
cows are tied with swing stanchions.

for that delicious fragrance and for
the bees, as they flock to it in num-
bers. It makes a beautiful hay; when
well cured is bright green, just the
color of nice alfalfa, and is much rel
ished by all kinds of stock. It will
not yield as much hay as red clover,
but will last number of years on the
ground from one seeding. Now, if
you have some fields of the character
have described, plow them up and
raise crop of COW peas, seed to rye
in the fall and the next spring sow to
alsike. Don't make the mistake of
sowing on land too poor and deficient
in humus. Cow peas will help your
soil and fit it for the clover. Don't
expect to succeed where the land is
so low that lake of water stands on
it several weeks at time; this must
be drained. But for ordinary wet land
alsike is a great crop. Try it.

High or Low Grade Fertilizers.

There is difference of opinion
among those who use commercial fer
tilizers as to the comparative value and
merit of what are known as high and
low grade fertilizers. The weight of
evidence seems to be in favor of the
higher grade, that the valuable ele-
ments in the fertilizer come cheaper
in that than they do in the low grade.
The latest, that we have seen, is an
editorial item in the Rural New York
er, which is as follows:
S Some Of the ablest men in the coun-
try find it necessary to live in Florida
at least good part Of the year. The
mild climate gives them renewed
lease of life, and they take pleasure in
outdoor life. AS truckers and fruit
growers these men have been remark
ably successful. They locate below
the frost line, or where they can pro-
tect their crops, work. the soil care
fully and make special study of fer
tilizing. In this intelligent use of
chemicals they are teaching us all
striking lessons. We have heard peo-
pie complain because high-grade fer
tlizers cost more than low grade, even
while they recognize the fact that
chicken manure is worth more than
ordinary stable dung. These men are
not satisfied with the best ordinary
goods, but demand the highest grade
mixtures with 10 or II per cent am
monia, nine of phosphoric acid and IS
Of potash They are willing to pay
in some cases 500 to SOS per ton for
such goods, made of the choicest
grades, and know that by so doing
they buy some $40 phosphate" The
higher the guarantee the surer they

are of getting the most valuable
forms of plant food at least cost. The
cost of handling and freight is much
less, and every pound of plant food
is available at once. These men have
worked out the fertilizer problem just
as in former years they developed
success in other lines of business. It
is waste of money to handle and
pay for useless "6ller" and inferior
forms of plant food in a 1ow-grade
fertilizer. Success and safety lie in
using high-grade goods.

Alsike Clover.

~AASAnC S4OVC4s
A short time ago we quoted, from
the Farmers Home Journal, two re-
ports of experience with a1sike. We
have found third report and copy it
for the benefit of our readers, believ-
ing that it is something which is of
interest and value to hundreds of
farmers and stock growers in Florida.
We prefer alfalfa where it can be
grown, but there are many farms on
which the soil is too wet for alfalfa
yet which would raise good a1sike.
We hope that there will be general
test of this plant throughout the state.
We should be glad to hear from any
one who has tried it either in this
state or any other.
In answer to your request for ex-
perience with this too little known
and most valuable clover, I will state
few facts. The scientific name is
Trifolium Hybridum; also called
Swedish clover. It's growth is sim
liar to red clover The blossom looks
like a cross between white and red
clover. The seeds are much smaller
than red clover seed, and you can sow
more land with bushel of seed, but I
believe in liberal seeding and would
not sow less than eight pounds to the
acre. Now here are some of the ad-
vantages [ have found with this clo-
yer: 1t will grow and produce fair
crop on much poorer land than red
clover. It will grow and thrive on
land SO wet that red clover or alfalfa
would not thrive at all. So if you
have wet, bottom land that does not
dry out early in the spring, where
there are craw6sh in the ground, this
is the clover to sow. I have gotten
fine stands of it on land so wet that
| could not do thing with red clover.
In the first place you want good seed
and this is a thing that needs great
attention. SO badly are clover seeds
adulterated now that it is almost i'm
possible to get good stands &C
clover and free of weed seed. IF YOU
expect to SOW it On small grain, the
next few weeks will be most favor
able time to sow, say from middle of
February to middle or last of March.
Pick morning when it is still so as
to get an even distribution of seed,
when the ground is freezing at night
and the surface in the morning is all
cracked open and covered with splin-
tiers of ice and bare of snow, get out
early and sow your seed. The freezes
and thaws will carry it deep into the
ground and it will not sprout until
the ground gets warm and if you sue
coed in getting a stand drouth will
not hurt it as it will the later sown
seed If sown with oats, brush or
harrow into the ground. When you
get a good thick field of it and it
gets into full bloom you will have one
of the incest crops you ever grew on
the farm. Great pink blossoms and
as fragrant as a bed of sweet vio1ets
The .odor from field in full bloom is
something not easily forgotten, and II
often think we should all sow some

on the same subject, which we quote
elsewhere, it proves conclusively that
it is not the soil nor the climate which
causes such poor corn crops in Florida
The same methods will bring equally
good results on other farms
My attempt to increase yields of
corn and cotton was made in the pine
and wire-grass belt of Florida
The soil is medium, about 10 to IL
inches ito clay, and will not produce
more than 10 bushels of corn or $50
pounds lint cotton, with 200 pounds
common fertilizer, say 1922.
I concluded to make an experiment,
and took two acres third years land,
and broad-casted SO e mu1e) wagon
loads of muck, 20 loads of good stable
manure, two loads of cotton seed,
green; two barrels common r-s1acked
lime, 500 pounds kainit, 500 pounds
acid phosphate and 100 pounds muriate
Of potash. This I spread evenly and
plowed with Boy Dixie as deep as a
mule could pull. A second mule fol-
lowed in the same furrow with long
shovel plow, put to the beam of a
scooter stock. I let it lie until first OF
March, then cutting it thoroughly both
ways with disc harrow, bedding five
and one-half feet. She middle of
March I opened water furrow with
shovel and sowed two sacks 1922
guaro, throwing two burrows back with
same pillow. Then I opened with small
scooter very deep the last of March,
and sowed my corn and covered with
same p1ow scraped off the top be-
fore coming up. When up I chopped
Out to six to eight inches, cultivated
lightly and frequently. Land we'll pre-
pared in this way is very easy to Guilt
vate
This pet patch was the general talk;
farmers came for 80 miles to see it.
Vii 'OllC VI lliOoC VloIlS VI d ElCIIu, we
laid a ten foot rod side of selected
spot in row and counted % matured
ears of corn besides the small ears. I
invited quite number of neighbors to
see it gathered and measured. The
yield measured 90 bushels per acre.
I prepared 7-8 of an acre in the
same way and with the same proper
ton of fertilizer, for cotton This |
land was we'll drained I re-bedded |
the cotton land, dragging down a flat

pounds of lint of very fine and we'll

I have very little experience in mix
ing fertilizer and might have gotten
the same results with more scientific |
formula, but I used such as I had at
hand, and am able to say that I now
