The Farmers’ Index. Ml letter. Intended for the Editor of thl. De partment should be addressed, “Fabmkbb' Index, Drawer 24, Atlanta, Ga.” __ 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. Baker county, Juue 24th. 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.
