made gradually and as a re-
suit of a thorough study of
the whole business.
In short. a rotation means
a succession OF crops planned
to run for a certain number
of years, and a good rotation
means such a succession of
crops as will enable the
farmer TO get a profit on all,
or nearly all, of them and at
the same time to increase
the productive capacity of
his land and to utilize all his
resources in the way of land,
labor and executive ability.
And remember that it is not
a mere matter of choice
whether you rotate your
crops or not; but that's well
planned rotation is one of
the first essentials of good
farming - the basis upon
which any enduring struc-
ture of agricultural pros
perity must be built.

Inquiries about planting a t e

Inquiries about planting atel
corn are comiag to the Expert
ment Station in almost every
mail, therefore some G e n e al
statements regarding late corn
planting would seem %opportune.
My observations and experiments
in planting corn in May, June
and early July have now extend
ed over a period of eighteen
years, and some of the best crops
of corn, as well as some OF the
most complete failures that |
have observed, have been made
from planting the corn in late
June or early July. The latest
crop of corn that has been plant
ed on the Experiment Station,
SO far as I know, was planted at
Baton Rouge on July 9th, 1903.
crop would have been damaged
by frost, had the frost come
earlier, but we had a late frost
and the corn matured and met
every requirement for feeding
purposes, making nearly fifty
bushels to the acre, which was
considerably in excess OF the
yield of any early corn that |
} knew of in this neighborhood.
Ion the other hand, we have had
some crops of late corn that We're
so badly damaged by the ear
worm that the yield was not
more than half that secured
from early planting. However,
, on a general average, corn
planted from the 10th of June
to the 4th of July will make a
: good crop more than half of the
time, and will always pay for the
labor and other expenses in
volyed, provided one plants
: Mexican June, Laguna, or Vel
Z low Creole. In case these va
: rieties cannot be secured, the
Hastings Prolific will probably
be one of the best varieties that
can be secured.
In the section now inundated
there is some danger of grass
worms following the recession
of the waters, and they some.
f times completely destroy the
t crop. These insects are ordi
q narily kept in subsection by then
natural enemies, chief of which
are the ground beetles which
feed upon both the larval ant

either with a blow gun, or in
the ordinary way of shaking it

planters ordinarily poison cotton

It is very possible that damage
that accrues to small areas that
have been inundated, " ere
most observations on this Rssect
have been made, will not follow
in cases where large expenses
of territory have been U er
water; at least it is not probable
that there are enough of these
insects on the high lands to be
come a serious pest after they
are disseminated, even should
they invade the territory now in
undated. I, therefore, do not
contemplate any serious damage
over wide spread areas from this
insect. It is, however, well to
be prepared for fighting these
insects, as they sometimes de-
stroy a crop between the period
that the farmer first observes
them and the time required to
secure Paris green from some
distant point.
In case the root worm begins
to damage the young corn, the
best method of fighting it is to
throw some of the dirt from the
roots of the corn and expose it to
sunshine for a short time, and
then lap back the dirt with the
! cultiyator,
It is well to plant about twice
as much seed per acre as under
ordinary conditions, that is using
a busheI of seed to about three
acres, and not thin out until the
corn is fifteen to eighteen inches
high. After it reaches that
stage the corn root worm cannot
do very much injury to the crop.
Late planted corn should be
cultivated thoroughly and fire.
quently while it is young, be.
cause it grows very much more
rapidly than early corn.
Il Il one desires to plant COW
peas in late corn, it is well tx
use an early maturing variety.

probably the best variety for thu
ordinary type of soil for thi'
purpose. Before planting, thor

and insects, than would be los
by the delay in getting the Gro,

Should the planting be delaye,
$ beyond the dates gwen above

raise a crop, since the corn ca:

With the date of the Baltimore
Convention drawing near, mem
bers of Congress in both Houses
are beginning to discuss the
availability" of candidates for
the Democratic nomination. The
shifting sentiment in the Re
publican ranks which makes it
impossible to predict the winner
of the Chicago convention is
causing leading Democratic mem
bers of the House and Senate to
consider seriously who among
the men running for the Demo-
cratic nomination would prove
strongest against the Republican
nominee whoever he may be.
Particularly is this question in
teresting the members from
pivotal States-states t t it
will be necessary for the Democ-
racy to carry If victory is to
come in November There
seems to be no dissenting voice
among the leading Democrats
in the House who represent the
so-called doubtful States that
Speaker Clark would be by fal
the strongest candidate. Il il
pointed out that the present
strong position Of the Demo.
} cratic party is due solely to the
splendid record of the Demo.
Gratis in the Sixty-first Congress:
and their record since they be
came a majority. The consen
sus of opinion is that Speakel
. Clark more than any other Demo
crat is due the success Of thu

emphasized that he more thar
