SORGHUM.

The value of sorghum for forage
has only of recent years begun to be
understood. Both as pasturage and
as hay it furnishes a very large
amount of feed, and especially for
pasturage it is not equaled by any of
the other annual forage plants in
amount of feed produced. Unfor-
tunately, it cannot be planted early
and is not available for pasture until
July. However, it is in the latter
part of July and in August that
permanent pasture is most likely to
be poor, and a field Of sorghum can
be used to great advantage to supple
ment such pasture.
The early amber variety is generally
used in the Missouri valley. For pas
turing or soiling, it is planted with a
press drill at the rate of two to two
and half bushels to the acre, after
corn planting. 1t grows very slowly
at first and if put in when the weather
is cold is apt to get-very weedy. For
hay, it may be seeded in the same way
or in double rows six inches apart and
thirty inches between these double

THOROUGH CULTIVATION MUST
PRECEDE FERTILIZATION,

The soil is made up Of thousands
Of little grains, and the finer these
grains are the greater the power of
the soil to hold moisture, since it
forms a film around each little in
dividual soil grain. Moreover, the
finer the soil particles, the smaller
the opening between them, and hence
the greater the power Of the soil to
draw moisture from one section of
the land to another and lift it close
to the surface Of the soil, where it
may be utilized by the growing crop
or permitted to escape into the air.
according to the skill and ingenuity
exercised by the farmer in the cultiva-
ton of his land. Since plants can
only take their food up when dis
solved in water, the Importance of
the soil being in a good physical con-
dltlon becomes instantly apparent. It
is easy to see that soil which is in
a lumpy, rough condition can not
absorb and hold the proportion of
water necessary to tide over drouth
periods, and to convey the plant food
which may be added to the soil in a.
soluble form to the roots of growing
plants. Hence, it frequently occurs
that large amount Of fertilizer
added to soil in bad physical con-
dition is never brought in contact

rows. It is then cultivated like corn
and harvested with a corn binder. In
regions Of small rainfall this method
is particularly satisfactory.
It may be pastured when about
eighteen inches high, but for soiling
should be allowed to grow somewhat
higher, if the greatest amount of feed
is to be produced. It makes very
rapid growth after being eaten down
or cut. Under some conditions it is
fatally injurious to stock and its use
for pasturage when injured by drouth,
or perhaps frost, cannot be said to
be safe. For soiling this objection
does not hold if it be allowed to stand
for few hours after being cut

your needs. Don't buy anything
unless you are in actual need OF 1t.
1t is matter of poor economy for
a farmer to try to raise cotton to buy
everything he needs on the farm,
especially if he is living in country
where he can raise all kinds Of
fruits and vegetables.
When we come to the point where
we can depend on ourselves for
living and not the merchant, we will
be the happiest and most independent
class Of people on earth.
I have seen a good deal in Home
and Farm on the saving Of planting
seed, so 1 will give my ideas on the
question, which [ expect to follow In
the future.
Go through your cotton and select
the best stalks, those that are best
formed, and pick the best hollis, near
the center of the stalk. Never pick
the ends of the limbs. Have it
ginned separately, and you have
good quality of planting seed, and
will surely have less barren stalks the
coming season.
For corn, my plan is to leave the
stalks as [ pull my fodder, leaving
the fodder on them, which serves as
a mark for the seed stalks and also
fully natures the ears. In selecting
we should select we'll matured ears
and see that there are no barren
stalks nearby or smut or any other
diseased stalks that are liable to
adulterate your seed stalk. This can
be gathered in a basket or sack as
you see fit and stored away free
from dampness. It is a very good
idea to select the best of this then
and plant separate patch in good
soil to select your seed from again
for the next year. This will enable
us to always improve our variety of
planting seed each year.-H. w.
Young, in Home and Farm.
