FARM WORK FOR JULY.
Our usual talk under this head comes
near the middle of the month, owing
to dates, and the customary suspension
in honor of the fourth of July.
For several reasons, the “fourth of
July,” just past, is marked with pecu
liar interest, and will be long remem
bered. The President of the United
States lay writhing in agony, the result
of a most dastardly attempt upon his
life on the 2d of July. The usual
noisy and joyful manifestations —con-
sidered proper by the masses on such
an anniversary—were generally post
poned, and the nation, by common ac
cord, united in a feeling of intense
sympathy for the sufferer and his
family, of patriotic indignation at the
un-republican and atrocious crime
committed, and of anxiety for the fu
ture of our country. We forbear any
further comment, only desiring to place
upon record here our own feelings—be
lieving they truly represent the whole
mass of the farmer readers of The In
dex. Our more profound and philo
sophical editor-in-chief will doubtless
properly moralize on this absorbing
event.
On all well-managed farms in Geor
gia, there will be little pressing work
for this month. Corn has been laid
bye, and cotton is receiving its last
working. We believe in stirring the
soil—the mere surface only—as long
as the cotton grows, provided the rain
continues. It does not pay to drive
the sweeps and cultivators through the
fields in a mere bed of dust, where no
rain has fallen since last plowing.
July is the last month in which even
whippoorwill peas can be sown with
certainty of ripening. Farmers should
not carry over any seed peas as long as
there is any land on which they can be
sown. Every acre of corn should have
been sown in peas at last plowing, or
before. We believe in peas as the
great renovating crop for our exhausted
soils. Clover will not flourish in this
climate except on soils that already
give very satisfactory crops of corn,
cotton or wheat. Peas will grow where
it will hardly pay to plant anything
else.
Now is the time for pitching the fall
crops of oats, rye and wheat. We have
been in the habit of congratulating
ourselves upon the importance that the
oat crop in Georgia has assumed in the
last few years. But when we refer to
the census statistics of production, we
feel in comparing our aggre
gate production and average yield per
acre with the Northwestern States.
The truth is, our farmers are too easily
satisfied with themselves in respect to
the production of grain, forage, and
provision supplies of all kinds. Except
in North Georgia, it is not advisable to
sow largely of wheat. But oats ought
to be produced to at least ten times the
present aggregate yield.
July is the time to prepare for fall
gardens—turnips, Irish potatoes, etc.
Turnips, as a crop, should remain as a
mere garden or small cow-pen crop.
The attempt to produce them for stock
feed, as in the North and England, will
probably never succeed. We have too
many other vegetables and plants that
are superior, or, at least, better adapted
to the climate.
THE TENGE LAW.
The voters of Henry, Rockdale, Cow
eta and DeKalb counties passed on the
question of “Fence or No Fence” on
the fourth of July past. In the three
first named “No Fence” carried the
day by varying but large majorities,
but in DeKalb the sovereigns resolved
to adhere to the time-honored system
of “our daddies.” While, undoubtedly,
a large portion of Northern and South
ern Georgia is unprepared for so radi
cal a change of system, we hail the
success of the effort in the counties
named as a harbinger of better days
and a greater prosperity in Georgia.
•Our sister State of South Carolina is
ahead of us on this line (and, indeed,
on others), and is leading in demon
strating that the expensive and cum
brous system of fencing out all the
world is not only unnecessary, but is
absolutely retarding agricultural im
provement and development.
It is nothing more than intense con
servatism —attachment for old ways
and what we habitually consider as the
natural order of things, that gives nerve
to the opposition against the inevitable.
The days of fences are numbered, and
we hail the final accomplishment of
the change in all the older counties of
the State as the longest and most im
portant step in substantial improve
ment that will have been taken in fifty
or a hundred years. The money spent
on fences and whisky (directly and in
directly) in Georgia every year, would
pay the debt of the State and all taxes,
several times over, annually.
Editor Farmers’ Index—According
to your request for information about
crops, I write you :
This has been a remarkable year.
Scarcely hand the freezing gales of winter
bid us adieu, when, to our astonishment,
spring gave us the go~by, and summer,
with all his power and majesty, was
ushered in upon us. We planted corn at
the usual time, but the heavy rain—the
heaviest I ever saw —completely sub
merged it with mud and sand, so that it
never came through again. Many far
mers replanted with Western corn, as
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, JULY 14, 188 l
i it is earlier than our verities, and the re
-1 suit was a poor stand—generally not
more than three-fourths oi a full stand.
We have had butonegood season since
April 7th, though some localities have
had more. All things considered corn
looks well, having a good color, but is
very small.
Some farmers have planted field peas,
and others could not get seed. What a
shameful thing that farmers do not raise
seeds of all kinds—especially peas. The
latter cost nothing but the seed, the drop
ping and gathering.
Cotton is looking remarkably well, es
pecially where it has been fertilized,
either with guano or home manures.
More attention has been given to com
posting than ever before. People are
learning by bitter experience that, if
properly manipulated, manure be put
into the ground in the right way, the
crop will be sustained during the long
and severe droughts that have become
so frequent in this section. It is a mis
take that manuring cotton or corn either
will necessary cause it to “fire.” On the
contrary, the manure will aid in sup
porting the crop during the dry weather,
and when rains set in, that portion that
has been properly manured will be the
first to start into new and healthy
growth.
The oat crop for 1881 was no better
than that of last year, and horse feed be
ing scarce and credit limited (with some)
nearly all the oats that were cut will be
fed away, and none be left for fall seed
ing. Some are now on the lookout to
buy seed oats.
The fact is, as a general thing, farmers
will not prepare land for oats as they
should, and this accounts, in great mea
sure, for the failure of this crop. Good
land well broken and fertilized, and the
oats scootered in will very rarely fail of
a crop.
Cane and potatoes are looking well,
though the latter crop, on account of
rain to push the draw-bid, will be later
than usual. Gardens have had a bad
time for the want of rain in May and
June.
Quite a number of mules have died of
—shipped corn, and the want of long for
age. Much of the corn shipped here is
unsound, though apparently good and
sound, and this fact—as I forgot to state
—was the cause of the failure to secure
good stands, where it was used for re
planting. Young Farmer.

THE INTERNATIONAL COTTON EXPOSI-
TION, ATLANTA, GEORGIA. #
ADDRESS OF ». T. JENKINS, ESQ , AT THE COTTON
EXCHANGE, CINCINNATI, OHIO.
[From the Cincinnati Commercial ]
At the close of ‘Change hours yesterday Preel
dent Urner introduced Mr. S. T. Jenkins, of At
lanta, who spoke as follows, being applauded at
the close.
Mr. President and Gentlemen:
I am more than gratified to meet you, and
heartily thank you for this privilege of address
ing you on mutual Interests. I will endeavor to
be concise and will be brief.
I represent the International Cotton Exposition,
to be held In Atlanta, Ge., from October sth to
Decemberr 31th of the nresent year. It very pro
perly derives its title from the leading Southern
product—the nucleus of the widest range of
Southern Industry, but it is not confined to cot
ton nor its analogous Interests, as is supposed
It embraces all machinery, all manufactures and
all products. It it. open to all the Industrial In
terests of the world, and, to those who know the
executive committee, it seems superfluous to say
its management will be satAactory and complete.
An entrance fee of (23 (except for products of the
soil) will be (Ihsrge4 tmUjtaahihtta, and from
25 to 50 cents per foot for spice, which should be
the very best recommendation to exhibitors, and
gives positive assurance to visitors that the dis
play will be brilliant and instructive. Besides
interesting exhibits from nations beyond the sea,
as well as from America, there will be grown on
the grounds ail varieties of cotton and other
Southern productions. Cash premiums amount
ing to $2,000 are offered on cotton alone, to be
grown adjacent to the Exposition buildings. Other
attractive prizes will be offered on various ex
hibits. The charges for space will participate as
stock, and it is confidently believed will be re
turned with a reasonable profit, as an immense
attendance is certain, and the buildings which
constitute the main expidenture, will be so con
structed as to be convertible into cotton facterfes,
and will be taken down and sold for that purpose.
Arrangements will be made for excursions from
different States on different weeks, and every pre
caution will be taken to accommodate the vast
crowds. New hotels will be opened, all spare
rooms will be utilized, and tracts will be laid
around the grounds to locate sleeping cars for
the accommodation of special parties. Being the
first World's Fair ever held in the South, it is my
earnest hope that you may behold a representa
tive gathering of her entire populate n, and a
consolidated exhibit of hi r boundless resources.
She may have nothing to boast of in advanced
agrlcultv e, improve 1 machinery and extensi e
manufactures, as some journalists construe us to
mean in saying, at Louisville, a few days ago,
this is the Sou'-h’s opportunity, but -he needs
only to be known, and having had occasion to
realize howthorcughlyshe is misunderstood, and
comprehending the possibilities of this exposi
tion. I would in a liberal and patriotic spirit re
peat the expression. It is her opportunity not
only to be known, but to know and coming in
contact with genius, enterprize and busy life,
will awaken any latent energies not already
quickened by the perils and necessities of the
long, dark night, through which she has been
passing, and there will be a beginning of the
final shaking off of that lethargy of which she
was accused under her peculiar institution now
abolished and fixed forever. Once she did care
whether yon knew her or not; sii.ee then the
difficulties in the way of propagating truth are
well known, and it is amazing to see how ignor
ant some intelligent p rsons in either section are
of the other. Some time ago I talked with a gentle
man in this State, of sound mind and sober, who
asked if Georgia was in Alabama One South, as
earnestly and as ignorantly, inquired, i! any re
spectable persons North are Republicans. Some
of you doubtless observed at your great banquet
how surprised Southern merchants were at the
proportions of your city; how they wondered at
your inclined railroads; how amazed they were
in Music-Hall; and you remember him who
called at a retail dry goods store to learn the price
of sorghum.
I shall never forget an Interview in Florida
with a lady, whose name would perhaps be the
very first selected as being posted about the
Souih, and whose talents all acknowledge, when
trying to pursuade her, on her return North to
come through Macon and Atlanta, instead of go
ing the coast route, as she had been, she asked
me if it was low and flat and sandy around At
lanta like it is around Jacksonville; if in going
North she had to come back through Macon, etc.
Now, these simple little facts not on'y indicate
how the two people so near akin have been im
properly estranged, but should give us tolerance
for each other's opinions on social and political
matters where so much talent and money have
been expended on either side to misguide. To
show the importance of little things sometimes
let us for a moment consider one of the above.
Imagine, if you please, a spirit 1 vel, with one
end on the floor of the Grand Hotel, that elegant
home of the traveller and pride of your city, and
the other terminating nearly five hundred miles
South, in Atlanta; now many of your people
knew that you would have to dig five hundred
feet below the Markham House to make the
bubble stand in the center; or if you place one
end on the floor of the Markham, to get a line
that you wonld have to place th» other end near
ly 500 feet above your towering hotel? So you
see, my friends, the South Is not so low, flat and
swampy as many suppose, and with all your
wealth and pride, and grandeur in manufactur
ing, in commerce, in music and in art, you have
to look up to Atlanta.
It may not be improper to remark that for the
last ten years past there have been men in the
South qule ly laboring to Induce her people to
learn economy, to make home self-sustaining and
attractive, to have less to do with politics and
more for the substantial good of the country. I
could show you one of that number who has for
the past five years Iven almost his ectire time to
such work—urging Southern progress, National
prosperity, that the North and South know each
other, preparation for immigration, diversified
industries, etc , and who bns really made the
development of the material resources of the
South a hobby. There are volumes in the fact
that mere has been a necessity for this, but it 1«
gratifying and encouraging to know how popular
all these subjects now are, and you must observe
remarkable significance touching your own in-
terests In the material development ot the count
ry beyond the terminus ot your great Southern
road, and tn the transfers ot millions in a day
from the East for Investment there. The crown
ing act in the life of the Illustrious John B. Gor
don began with his resignation from the U. 8.
Senate, quitting politics to attend to the material
interests of his country, and It culminated in the
organization of the Georgia Pacific Kall road, of
which he was deservedly made President. It may
now be said that we have three main lines pas
sing through the Empire. State connecting the
sea with the advancing West, and when you con.
Sider the difficulties being overcome in transport
ation, when you observe the rapid progress to
ward burying dead issues, and when you behold
the flood of.truth about to Hash upon the world
from our sunny land,you will begin to appreciate
your interest tn Southern immigration You
should not be surprised al the introduction of
this subject in contemplating the practical ben
efits ot what may be termed the exposition of
modern times.
It will afford not only a favorable opportunity
to see the products and ingenuity of the world,
but for sections and people to know and to be
known -, for the exhibitors to advertise their
machinery and manufactures in new fields, and
to extend their commercial relations; for visitors
and strangers to cultivate amity of feeling and
form social ties that will bind them to the count
ry. Then I may also say, this is Cincinnati's op
portunity. She is one of three open gateways to
the section from which the South must receive
her most desirable class of immigrants, and the
South can not be more ready to receive than you
should be to send them. All who go West are
gone with their influence forever, but in going
South they raise families to return in summer,
and they build up business tributary to your
manufacturing, agricultural and commercial in
terests. I am commissioned to so iclt exhibits
tor the World's Fair in Atlanta from the section
referred to, which embraces the States north of
the line passing throng Cincinnati, Loulsvllleand
St. Louis, and believing I fully realize its grand
possibilities for good, the duty is performed with
a hearty free will. I regret the over-ight In the
opening not being a few days later, as a part of
my programme is to encourage excursions from
the South loyourExpositions.aud then excursions
from the Nntlh to ours and to Florida, but that
can not be helped now.
I also expeet to publish In the leading cities of
the States referred to, information about the
South, the Exposition at Atlanta, etc.
In the brief time occupied, of course only a few
points have been outlined, but if you will proper
ly consider them, you may find new reasons to
be glad that you cast twenty millions towards the
sea.
