Farm Work In Winter.

1t is a common error that but little
can be done on the farm in winter.
When fair view OF that season is
taken it must be admitted that there
are many things to which the farmer
may give his attention at that time to
advantage. There is no period of the
year more suitable for the fattening of
stock than the cold months, for then
the animals can be better provided for
and fed regularly. If the farm opera
tions are to be confined to few short
periods of planting and harvesting, the
prospect of making the farm pay will
be very much lessened. Even stern
winter offers advantages to the farmer
in some respects by relieving him Of
the hurry and hustle incident to the
busy growing time, thus enabling him
20 realize on the stored up feed by
converting 1t into more marketable
products of beef, pork or mutton.
Then again the manure is to be over
hauled, the repairs made and seed as
sorted and prepared. The farmer who
manages rightly is careful to lay by
certain work to be done especially in
winter and he will take good pains to
have everything in readiness when
spring opens. No summer work must
interfere with that Of winter and no
work should be done in summer that
can as well be done in winter.

FARMER AND
PLANTER
ROTATION OF CROPS.
You Must Feed Your Land or 1t Will
Wear Out.

On the rich prairies of Illinois,
where they used to say that the soil
had no bottom. they once claimed
that the soil would never wear out;
but growing the same crops on the
same land year after year cut down
the ai3ld until a change In methods
was s3solutely necessary. The rice
growehs of Louisiana and Texas, work
ing on their fiat land, where washing
was hardly to be thought of, at one
time claimed that their soil was rich
enough from rice growers stand
point to go on raising rice forever;
but experience showed that they were
wrong. Today the, progressive rice
grower is seeking methods to use his
land for something else than rice a
part of the time, just as the corn
growers on the rich Illinois prairies
aim to do something else now than
raise corn. The Mississippi Delta has
been said to have soil that is so fer
tile that it would never wear out, but
like the northern corn growers and
the Gulf coast rice growers, the Delta
planters have found that under the
one-crop system their yields will de-
crease.
The rich praries of the north and
the wonderful rich prairies of Louisi-
ana and Texas and the marvelousIy
rich Mississippi Delta had soil that
was SO constituted that it was rea-
sonable to hope it would stand abuse;
but in every instance abuse has meant
diminishing profits. Abuse-and the
one-crop system is always abuse of
land-will have bad effect much
quicker in less favored regions
When humus has been destroyed,
soil can not support plant life as it
did when humus abounded. For prac-
tical farming, humus may be de-
scribed as decayed vegetable matter.
It may contain decayed animal mat
ter; but to such E. small degree that
humns and decayed vegetable matter
generally mean the same thing. Vege-
table matter is got into the soil by
blowing under the leaves or stems or
roots of plants, of whatever kind, or
by applying barn manure. Manure has
the advantage Of having gone to build
up some animal body to supply meat,
to perform work, to produce milk,
wool or eggs; and after it has per-
formed this service the manure, when
well cared for, should have at least
three-fourths of its original fertilizing
value. 1t is for this reason that it is
so often said that good farming must
include stock farming.

WINTER FLOWING FOR GARDENS.
Good Flowing in Winter win SHOW
Fine Results in Spring.

We are hardly through planting till
it is time to begin preparation for
next years garden. All parts of the
garden on which some winter crop is
not growing should have heavy coat
ing of stable manure or droppings
from the poultry house; and be thor
oughly plowed, breaking deeply and
broadcast, instead of rows or ridges.
Fresh manure will be all right, as it
will have ample time to decay and
become thoroughly Incorporated with
the soil, provided it is replowed sew.
eral times during the winter.
Whatever growth is on the garden
should be plower under to add humus,
excepting tomato vines and cabbage.
These, if ploWed under, have a ten
dency to develop diseases peculiar to
these plants.
Before the blowing is done, it IS
well to mark the rows where toma-
toes, late beans and English peas
grow, and not plant the same rows
8.
matoes on the same ground has
tendency to develop tomato blight or
other diseases, while legumes or nj
trogen-storing plants, such as beans
and peas, should not follow each
other.
Often we know what to do; but
don't do it till some unpleasant ex-
perience fixes a scientific fact in the
mind. Three years ago we sold the
old home and improved a new prop
erty. The place selected for the gar
den had heavy growth of large
hickory and oak trees. These were
cleared in February, the ground

Rlaht and a WRONG wax 70 Plow.

Very few of our people really know
how to pillow. Our average plowman
goes into the field with view of
getting through the day as easily as
he can and with but little thought or
care as to the quality of the work
done. The pillow should be held firm
ly, and furrow of regular width
and even depth should be made, COM
pletely breaking and turning every
part of the soil. Flowing is intended
fer more than simply turning the
soil upside down It is to break
down the particles and release plant
food and open up the land SO as to
take in water to be used by the
plants in the later droughts.
On account of its Importance much
should be written about blowing;
though on account of the weather,
there is usually not great deal of
blowing done in January. However,
the advice here given will keep and
hold good whenever the blowing can
be done.

No matter if given milk regularly,
calves need water to drink. They
sometimes bawl. for it when nobody
seems to realize what they want. I've
seen well-fed calves which drank their
gallon of milk twice a day regularly
empty a bucket of pure water be-
tween meals. Of course they will not
do this when quite young, but after
they are three or four months old they
require water as much as any animal.

plan for5Infs nf Corn

In planning the crops for the year,
too much Importance can not be at
tached to the advisability of planting
enoL.xh in corn and other food crops
for Enme consumption. With corn
now selling at prices ranging, accord
ing to locality, from seventy to ninety
cents bushel 1t should not be hard
matter to get the wide-awake farmer
to plant enough to supply home con-
sumption. Especially is this true, when
there is a possibility that cotton will
sell for lower price next fall than
It is now bringing.

Notee on oat Culture.

Sow early; there will be less danger
Of rust
Harrow ground thoroughly: make it
as fine as you think necessary and
then go over it again.
Many farmers SOW too thick. Two
and half bushels to the acre is
enough under any ordinary circum-
stances; sometimes two is better.
Oats should stool out in every direc-
ton: if too thick, they can't do this
and then the straw will be short and
the grain can not head properly.

The Plow Should Be Kept Busy Now.

The fall months were SO nearly per-
feet for gathering crops that but lit
tie time was left for any other work.
Especially was this true in the cot
on-growing sections. That is one OBJ
lection to large cotton crops. They
are exacting and require all the
available labor to be obtained to pick
the cotton and leave neither time nor
labor to attend to other pressing
work. AS result, in the cotton
growing districts, very little, If any,
fall blowing has been done. This
means the plows should now be found

well he can prepare that home or
