Suggestions For August
Farm Work.

Inc cotton crop Will row De
generally laid by. In the upper
sections where cotton is grown it
is thought best to lay by the
crop rather earlier than in the
more southern parts Of the belt,
as late working alter blooming
is thought TO eep up growth
that makes the crop late. But
in the more southern sections, If
cultivation is as shallow as it
should be, there will be benefit
by keeping the cultivator going
till there is danger of iniuring
the young bolls.
In passing around the coun-
try it is gratifying to note that
our farmers are more and more
abandoning the practice of lay
ing by corn and cotton with a
big furrow and thus not only in
juring the roots but exposing
the soil to drying out, while shall.
low and level cultivation would
retainO the moisture where the
roots need it..
SOW CRIMSON CLOVER IN YOUR COT
In laying by cotton there is
the best chance to get stand of
crimson clover by sowing the
seed while the soil ls fresh from
the cultivation. If this was not
done it would be we'll to follow
the sowing With weeder that
can be closed up like a cultiva-
tor and thus give the seed
light cover.
Yes, sow while the soil is fresh
from the last working, and while
rains are more frequent than in
September. There is every year
great deal of complaint about
the failure of crimson clover,
mainly because of delaying the
sowing till September when we
are apt to have very dry wealth
er. The partial shade Of the
cotton will be just what the clo-
yer needs. and | had ra, her take
the chance now than wait till
September. Where | now live
it is commonly sown among corn
at last working, and in many
fields it is now up, though some
fields have tailed because of the
exceedingly dry weather for a
month past. But these still
hav e the chance TO SOW and this
is he great advantage Of sowing
rather early.
The Lancaster news. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1905-current, 1908-08-05

For the winter and early spring
crop of lettuce, September is
early enough for sowing. | scat
ter lettuce seed thinly broadcast
in the bed, as in this way avoid
he crowding that is almost In
evitsble when seed are suwn in
rows, and | get stout plants that
have grown singly and trans
plant more easily.
Sow some early garden peas
such as Alaska and Premium
Gem in deep iurrows and cover
lightly at first, working the soil
to them as they grow. You can,
in this way, have a fine crop Of
peas for the table in the fall.
Then you can still sow some
rows of EARLY Valentine beans
for table use or for keeping
for winter, for the snaps
picked in good condition and
packed down in brine will be
ready for use all winter by soak.
ing over night in clear water.
Then, too, these late vegetable
crops will enable you to keep
the garden clean, and if the gar
den is kept clean all the time
you will not be bothered by nut
grass and will not have so many
cut-worms in the spring, for the
eggs from which these are hatch
en- are laid in the fall on grass
and weeds.
ONIONS AND CELERY.
To save buying onion sets for
fall planting, try sowing seed of
the P:izetaker in August and
transplant the plants later, sett-
ing them rather deeply in we'll
fertilized beds, so that the soil
can be pulled away from them
in early spring to let the bulbs
form on top The land.
Sets of potato onions which
make no seed are planted later.
The last of August is early
enough to sci celery plants in
North Carolina, and further
South still later. The self
blanching varieties of celery
make handsome stalks, but are
never of as good quality as that
which is bianched by earthing
up with oil, and for family use
| would never plant the self
bIanching sorts. But celery
must not lie earthed lp in warm
weather, and later | will tel! all
about the final treatment of the
crop.
FOLLOWING COwPEAs WITH GRAIN.
If you have a field of cowpeas
which you intend to follow with
grain, do not imagine
that YOU can get better wheat by
plowing the whole under. You
will generally get less than on
the stubble and will lose the
value OF the feed the hay will
furnish. Wheat needs a soil
well compacted and fined, and
where it follows peas or corn or
tobacco, | wouId never use plow
after these crops are off, but
wonld make the surface as fine
as possible by going over re-
peatedly with the cutaway har-
row
