PASTURES AND HAY FOR THE
SOUTH.

There are few sections in the South
where good pasture grasses Of some
sort do not thrive, and on most OF
the lands OF the Piedmont and noun
tain country the finest sort Of a per-
manent sod can be maintained.
The fact is, that the Southern cot
ton farmer has been all his life fight
ing grass, and he breads nothing more
than a Bermuda sod, the finest sum-
mer pasture grass in the United States
in it's proper climate.
1t is not a good thing to have in
cotton field, of course; but [ knew one
Of the N ost successful cotton farmers
in South Carolina, who, when he was
living, always had q permanent pas
ture Of Bermuda grass and had fine
cattle, fine sheep and fine hogs, and
grew cotton with more success than
most farmers, seldom making less
than a bale an acre, and often more,
and he had no trouble with the grass
getting into his fields
Then in the upper Piedmont and
mountain country, where Bermuda is
out Of it's element we grow orchard
grass, Virginia or Canada bluegrass
the latter permanent a, sod as Ber-
muda, and green all the year. Then
in the eastern coastal and southern
sections the Texas bluegrass thrives
wonderfully as a winter grass. and is
excellent to mix with the Bermuda.
for it just begins to grow green when
the BERN uda turns brown.
But to get good pastures we must
treat them we'll We must prepare the
land and seed thickIy. and then by
annual top-dressing we can maintain
and thicken the sod indefinitely.
Therefore, 1 hope that all of our read
ers win study closely what Mr.. French
says about pastures.
Then as to hay There is no part OF
the country which can compete with
the South in the production of great
crops OF the best of hay from cowpeas.

SECOND APPLICATION Of
FERTILIZERS TO COTTON
progress Farm er. }


A daily paper has an article on cot
ton in which the statement is made
that The more up-to-date farmers of
the country have learned that it IS
profitable to make a second applica-
ton Of fertilizer to cotton as soon as
it is thinned.'
If an insufficient amount was used
in the first place, perhaps it may pay
to apply more. But, as a rule, the
the full amount Of phosphoric acid
and potash should be applied at the
start. These are not going to get out
Of the soil till some plant takes them
up. If cotton grows off slowly. it may
pay to apply to 100 pounds an acre
Of nitrate Of soda along the rows,
where the farmer does not farm well
and has no clover or peas to furnish
him nitrogen. But there Is not the
slightest advantage in using too little
phosphoric acid and potash at the
start and then having the labor of go
ing over again with these and waiting
for them to become available to the
crop as they would be if all was ap-
piled at first Nitrogen will leach from
the soil rapidly when in the form OF
g nitrate, and nitrate of soda should
not be used largely at planting, but
can be used when the crop is growing
to advantage, where the soil is def
cient In nitrogen

myriads of teams, each using force
sufficient to move seven tons over
good stone road-it would take an
arm yof 1850 plowmen to travel as
far as from the earth to the moon
and back again. For the worlds year
ly labor of this kind, it would send
about $4,000 men on that same hall
million mile journey.
