Advice to Farmers.

l have practically travelled over the
parish during the past three weeks and
found all crops excellent and in fine
condition. Now that the rains have set
in, crops will need rapid cultivation as
soon as dry enough. advise farmers to
put cotton on two burrows as early as
possible to check plant growth where
the plant is growing too rank.
The big forage crops we are making
this year mean better live stock and a
better living for the farmer himself.
Bossier is coming to the front with a
bumper corn crop. Last week saw
some corn in the Red Land neighbor-
hood that will make 40 bushels per
acre on land that has been in cultivation
for seventy-five years. saw another
crop in the hills that think will make
60 bushels per acre.
l want to call your attention, Mr..
Farmer, in regard to growing corn to
something which. 1 have been preaching
these past several years-corn being too
thick on the land. Wherever you find a
sorry crop of corn this year you will find
that the principal cause. Land that is
only able to make Is bushels per acre
will always make that if you have the
right number of stalks. know farmers
who have 5000 stalks per acre on this
grade of land and that means 60 bushels
per acre, provided each stalk makes an
average ear, and 100 average ears make
bushel. Therefore, by overtaxing the
land with stalks, they make only 8 to 10
bushels of nubbins. Study your land
and plant accordingly. If it can make
60 bushels, plant for so bushels, with
5000 stalks per acre. If only 20 bushels
per acre, put 1000 or $500 stalks.
The best method of planting corn is in
six-foot rows, with row of peas in each
middle, then you can have all the stalks
on the land it is able to support. This
is a never-failing method and builds up
your land at the same time.
The oat crop in Bossier this season
was finer than for years past-one
farmer, Mr.. Gray Stinson, making "a
bushels per acre and number of others
making 60 bushels per acre. This ought
to encourage all farmers to plant, during
October, if possible, all the oats they
will need, as all these best yields were
from early planted fields. Also, they
will have their lands in fine condition
for fall planting by raising peas this
summer.
must say something about peas, as
regard the pea as one of our most valu.
able crops, and growing them has beer
my hobby for years.
l have always known some few farmer
to plant some peas, but never knew
every farmer to plant SO many as thi
year. Some have planted as much as ;
car load. All land will make peas, ant
all peas will make land. l never knew
this crop to bring less than $3.50 pc
bushel and they are now selling for s2.5
| per bushel.
i l believe Sudan grass is going to be
great help to the farmers. have see
some crops that will cut two tons pc
acre and it is usually cut four time
during season.
Our parish bids fair to make NOR
feed than for the past three years pu
together. Yours respectfully,
E. S. BURT.
