The Farmers’ Index. FARM WORK FOR SEPTEMBER. In a large portion of the State cotton picking has already commenced in good earnest and “new cotton” has ceased to excite interest. We have no new thoughts to offer on the subject, but would simply reiterate previous sugges tions. While, of course, it is desirable to gather the cotton as clean of trash as practicable, the damage from storms of wind and rain is the chief trouble to be apprehended, and the only preventive of injury from this source is found s n gathering the opening cotton as rapid'y as possible. Every other consideration—regarding the cotton crop alone —should yield to the importance of getting it into the cot ton-house before the staple has been in jured by the weather. A little trash will not hurt much and should not be complained of if full baskets are brought to the steelyards. One heavy storm will do more damage to the salable value of cotton than all the leaf that may be gath ered by an average hand. The picking should, therefore, be pushed from the start, and for the additional reason that corn and peas must be gathered as they ripen and the time for sowing small grain is near at hand, and when it ar rives everything else must yield preced ence. [The wisdom of the above (written be fore the late storm) has been illustrated very recently.] SHORT CROPS. In many large sections of Georgia and other States the corn crop has been, more or less, a failure, and many an an xious farmer is revolving in his mind the question “what shall I do to make the present supply meet the next har vest.” It is an important, and with many a vital question, and it is unwise to post pone its solution until next spring when the corn cribs shall have been empted and the fodder poles stripped of the last bundle. “ Jl7iat shall I dos” The first thing is to resolve to make the most of the little that has been made—make it go as far as possible. This applies well at any time, but particularly when a short crop has been produced. The fodder and hay already gathered and the corn and peas yet to be gathered should be sa'ely and securely stored and only unlocked with the key of necessity. . Every available resource in the way of grass, corn-tops, millet, pasturage, should be utilized. Where rains have fallen the grass is now luxuriant. It should be made into hay— every pound of it possible. Postpone the regular daily drafts on the winter store as long as possible, by pasturing stock, and feeding on odds and ends that can not be well stored away for future use. Rye and Barley.—Prepare rich lots, dont stint manure, and sow rye (Georgia or Tennessee raised) at the rate of two or three bushels per acre, or barley at the rate of four bushels, or mix half of each and sow together. This should be done at once on ground well prepared by deep ploughing and high manuring. Very light stock, as sheep or young cattle and colts, may be allowed, in dry weath er during fall and winter, to graze such lots very lightly—enough to prevent too early heading out; but no hoof should be allowed on them after the first of Feb ruary. By the middle of February to middle of March (according to latitude) the barley and rye will be high enough to cut and feed to the stock in their stalls. One fourth of an acre to each grown animal will furnish plenty of the best forage until early sown field oats are ready for the reaper. Sow Oats Early.—ln addition and supplementary to the rye or rye and barley, a few acres of good land should be sown at once in eats of the very earli est variety, and well manured so as to come in as grain about cotton chopping time, or even earlier. The Burt oat is the earliest rust-proof variety with which we are acquainted. Those farmers who have seed of this and other varieties for sale would do well to advertise the fact in The Index. The main crop of oats should be sown during this and the next month—in Middle and North Georgia and corresponding sections in other States. Arrangements should be made and plans perfected at once, for sowing a full crop. If not supplied with seed oats, buy at once before prices run up, and while very heavy seeding is not so neces sary. As the month progresses we will give other hints and suggestions. SECOND QUARTERLY REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT AGRICUL TURE. Circular No. 19, under the above title has just been issued from the Depart ment of Agriculture. It gives the con dition of the crops in Georgia on the first day of August; some very inter esting notes from correspondents ; a well written article on ‘‘Fertilizers for Rice,’’ by Prof H. C. White, State Chemist; a short and interesting essay on “Rust in ■Wheat,” by Prof. J. M. Glenn, and a practical letter from Dr. Jas. P. Phillips, of Clarkesville. On the whole the circu lar is well filed. The “Notes from Cor respondents” give the results of experi ments with seeds distributed by the De partment. The Dallas Wheat does not fully sustain the high reputation which • it has borne in certain localities as a rust-proof variety, several farmers re porting that it rusted badly. But the trial was not a full and fair one. as in most cases it was sown in midwinter and even later. Quite a number of those who succetded in sowing it early in the fall were highly pleased with the result. The following extracts show the condi tion of the leading crops on the first of August: Corn. —The corn crop of the Sta'e has has been seriously injured by drouth, and to some extent by insects. In many localities, upland corn is almost a total failure, while in limited localities in every section of the State the crop is re markably fine. The rains have been unusually partial, and in some localities the drouth has been distressing. It is not thought now that more than three fourths of a crop of corn can be gathered. The prospect for the State, compared to an average crop, is only 78. Rains occurred In many parts of the State during the last week in July, but there are yet con-, siderable areas which have been dry since April. The averages in the five sections of the State are as follows, viz : North Georgia, 81; Middle Georgia, 76; Southwest THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER I, 1881. Georgia, 83; East Georgia, 68, and South west Georgia. 80. The partial failure of the corn in 1880 together with the short crop of small grain, followed by an unusually severe winter, created the necessity for large importations of forage and grain this year. Owing to the continued rains during the fall of 1880, a limited area was sown in wheat and fall oats. This necessitated large spring seeding of oats —indeed, much of the wheat crop was sown in January and February. The spring-sown oats were materially injured by the drouth in May, and wheat suffer ed from rust. The prospect, therefore, for a home supply of grain and forage is at present meagre. It is not, how ever, too late to supplement the corn and small grain crops by liberal seeding, in the early fall, of oats, rye and barley, to supply green forage dining the win ter and early spring, and hay and grain next summer. Farmers, are therefore, urged to plant turnips, oats, rye and barley, in more than usually liberal quantities, and to devote an area pro portionate to the size of the farm to grass, if soil suitable to its growth is at tainable. September is the proper sea son for sowing grass seed. Oats.—As before stated this crop was reduced in area by the continued rains during the fall, winter and spring, and in yield by the drouth in May. The yield in the State compared to an aver age is, of rust-proof varieties, 67.2; other varieties, 69.9; fall sown, 87.4, and spring-sown, 68.2. It will be seen, there fore, tbat not more than two-thirds of a crop has been gathered in the State. Fall Sowing.—Apart from the neces sity of sowing oats to supplement a short crop of corn and small grain, the fall sown oats are more reliable than spring sown, especially if the former are sown sufficiently early to take good root be fore the freezes commence. They should be grazed by light stock, to prevent join ting, but not so closely as to expose the roots to freezing. Wheat.—The area sown in wheat was small, on account of the unfavorable weather for preparing the land and sow ing during the last fall and winter. The area sown was only 60 per cent, of an average crop and much of that was sown in January and February ; consequently it was more subject to rust on account of late ripening. Notwithstanding these disadvantages, the yield is reported at 78 per cent, of an average crop. The varieties princi pally recommended are the Purple-straw, Dallas, Red May, Tappahannock, Fultz and Orleans. A few other varieties are locally commended. Cotton.—The average condition of the cotton crop of the State, August first, was 81, compared to an average crop. A reduction of this per centage may be ex pected within the present month, as the effects of the July drouth were not fully manifested when the reports on which these remarks are based were made. The caterpillars are reported in some of the counties of Southwest Georgia, in con siderable numbers. In North Georgia the average is 86; in Middle Georgia, 78; in Southwest Georgia, 85; in East Geor gia, 72, and in Southeast Georgia, 93. Expensive credit has been indulged in to sucn an extent by cotton planters this year that serious fears are enter tained as to the consequences to result next fill both to planters and mer chant’. Cotton culture on the terms on which supplies have been purchased this year, is only a deception and a snare. Farmers are noted for their adherence to the teachings of experience, and yet there is not a county in the State in which experience does not teach the wisdom of a self-sustaining system of agriculture and the folly of making cotton on supplies purchased at credit prices, or even for cash. The most prosperous farmers in every section of the State are those who have uniformly made their supplies at home. Such farmers are to be found every where, and are conspicuous for their prosperity; and yet their neighbors re fuse to follow their example and pros per, but are eagerly pursuing the ignis fatuus of all cotton on Western corn and bacon, with the road in front of them strewn with the wasted lives and wreck ed fortunes of their exemplars. Re monstrances against the suicidal policy have been uttered until they have be come painfully monotonous. Example, observation and experience have taught their lessons in vain. Figures founded on false data lie, and the farmers are lead to ruin by them. Cotton Statistic-!.— The statistics of the cotton crop in 1879 have been nub lished in outline by the census office, ac companied by brief notes regarding the condition of the culture of that staple, by Professor E. W. Hilgard, formerly of the Mississippi State University.
