FALL HARVESTS.
If it is important that the several crops
be planted in good time and promptly
and diligently cultivated, it is certainly
folly to allow the matured products, af
ter they are ready, to remain exposed to
the weather and to depredationsol thie »es
and stock, Ou a cotton farm the most
important business of the fall months is
the gathering of cotton and preparing it
for market. In our last we dwelt upon
this topic, urging the policy of picking
out the crop as rapidly as possible, with
less regard to trash and close picking
them to heavy baskets and quick work.
Thousands of dollars, in Georgia alone,
of damages by the storm of August
28th, might have been saved by a little
extra effort to keep up with the opening
cotton.
GATHERING CORN.
In large sections of the State the crop
is very light, and should be saved in the
best "condition. Where crib room is
plenty—as it probably is on most farms
—the ears should not be e’ip-shucked, but
broken entire from the stalks. The
rough exterior will prove a valuable ad
dition to the meagre store of winter
roughness. Corn will generally do to
house in sboul four to six weeks after
fodder pulling, and the work should not
be delayed.
We have heretofore recommended the
plan cf driving the wagon along the rows
and throwing the ears, as broken from
the stalks, directly into it. This plan
saves much time and is less wasteful,
especially where the crop is a good one.
As a preventive or remedy for weevils,
we have elsewhere suggested the free
use of walnut leaves scattered through
out the mass of corn. It is a good idea
to sprinkle the corn with salt or salt
water, to give additional relish to the
Shucks as food for stock.
OATS AFTER COTTON.
The proper time to sow fall oats in
North and Middle Georgia is from Sep
tember 15th to October 15 h. In North
Georgia they may be sown even earlier;
if later than October they are apt to be
killed by the winter cold. The early
sown are liable to be affected by the fly,
but if sown on clean land the danger
from this s >urce will be greatly lessened.
On account of the value of the pasturage
of the corn fields it is not generally prac
ticable to prepare and sow such lands
early enough. But cotton land may be
sown at any time after the crop is pretty
well matured and no farther effective
growth is possible. All that is necessary
is to gather the open cotton just ahead
of the plows, sow the oats, and plow
them in as if plowing the cotton. The
repeated plowings which are required
for the cotton crop constitute a fine
preparation for oats. They may be plow
ed in, in the most convenient way. If it
is desired to manure the oats with some
commercial fertilizer* the seed may be
thoroughly wetted with water and the
fertilizer, in any given quantity, stirred
into the oats and all sown together. For
this purpose any high grade ammoni
ated superphosphate will answer.
In the latter part of the winter—say
in February—the old cotton stalks may
be knocked down as low as possible. If
the oats are manured or the season prove
good, the stubble will not materially
hinder the harvesting.
We urge upon farmeis the policy of
sowing a large area of fall oats, sow early
and sow properly and a good yield is
much more certain than from the same
time and labor spent on a corn crop.
One of the chief general causes of failure
to make oats in the South lies in the fact
that it has generally been considered of
secondary importance —a sort of side
crop to furnish an agreeable change of
food to work animals for a few weeks in
early summer. The result has usually
been that the sowing is postponed to
some convenient season, —to some time
when everything else has been attended
to—or else the work is done very hurried
ly and imperfectly and on the poorest
land. There is no risk in saying that if
the same attention be devoted to oats
that is usually given to corn by good
farmers—the same care as to time of
sowing, selection of seed, preparation
and manuring—for a series of years, the
results would be largely in favor of oats
as a staple food crop for animals. This
superiority as food for plowing stock is
generally admitted, their greater certain
ty can easily be demonstrated, and their
cheapness as compared with corn—all
things considered—is hardly question
able.
ARTESIAN WELLS.
The recent successful effort of Mr. John
P. Fort, to procure a supply of pure water
in one of his plantations in Dougherty
county, by boring an artesian well, has
excited considerable interest in the sub
ject of artesian wells in general, and the
necessities of Southern Georgia in partic
ular, in relation to drinking water. The
first account of Mr. Fort’s achievement—
polished in the Atlanta Constitution and
Macon Telegraph— very patronizingly
congratulated the country upon the pros
gective development of a large area in
outh Georgia—now that a suppfy of
wholesome drinking water is probably
attainable by means of these wells. The
plain inference is that that whole section
of the State has heretofore been kept
back, in the march of progress and de
velopment, by the want of water fit for
drinking purposes. The Americus pa
pers very naturally and justly resent the
insinuation and insist that the ordinary
well water of Southwest Georgia is gener
ally as pure and wholesome as that of any
section of the State. 11 is only in Dough
erty and a few of the adjoining counties
that water of fair quality is hardly at
tainable by ordinary methods. We hap
pen to know from personal. experience
that most of the wells in Southern Geor
gia affords as pure and wholesome water
as can be found any where. Right here
in the city of Atlanta limestone water is
common, and is even considered medici
nal in quality. The trouble with the
well water of the lower half of the State
is the warm temperature. In Americus,
Ga., water of the temperature of 65 de
grees is considered pretty cool; while in
Atlanta the same would require ice to
make it palatable.
The quality of water is largely a ques
tion of taste and not of health.
Some few plantations in Southwest
Georgia may sensibly appreciate in value
on account of the discovery made by Mr
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1881.
Fort, but its effect upon that section will
not be appreciable.
Artesian wells take the name from
tl e province of Artois, in France, where
'his mode of well-borings as first prac
ticed in Europe. They have been in
use in China, and other countries of
Asia, and even in the deserts of Afri- a,
from a remote period. A successful
boiing depends upon the geological for
mation of the count) y. If a consid
erablearea of country is underlaid by
impervious strata of clay, chalk, or lime
stone, enclosing between them beds or
strata of gravel, sand, or other water
bearing material, and the whole is dis
posed in the form of a huge basin -strata
cr >pping out in the hill country fifty or
more miles distant—a hole „ored from
the surface anywhere about the centerof
the basin and penetrating one or more
of the impervious strata, will permit the
water from below to rise to the surface,
and even to a considerable distance
above. This is caused by the pressure
of the water in the higher and remote
portions of the water stratum. The prin
ciple is often illustrate 1 in common wells
—whenever a vein of water rises above
the point at which it is first discovered.
One of the most rewarkable artesian
wells is that at Passy, near Paris. The
diameter of the bore is two feet four
inches, depth, 1923 feet, and it throws
up a continuous stream of water at the
rate of 5,582,000 gallons of water per day
to a height of 54 feet above the ground.
At Chicago there are two wells, one 700
feet and the other 1,000 feet deep, with a
diameter of 5 inches, which supply the
city with 800,000 gallons of water daily.
There are many other wells of this char
acter in various parts of the valley of the
Mississippi and the Gulf slope.
Artesian wells have been made tqsup
ply warm water, for keeping hospitals,
etc., at a constant temperature. Invaria
bly the temperature of water from great
depths is higher than that at the surface,
and by means of observasions upon the
water obtained at different depths by
these bored wells, we have learned all
we know about the regular increase of
temperature as we descend into the earth.
CORN WEEVILS—AN ENQUIRY.
Editor Farmers’ Index: Will you
please enquire through the Farmers’
Index, what is the best preventive of
weevils in corn, or the best means of
driving them out of the corn in the crib
without injury to the corn? Please at
tend to this soon. Yours Truly,
H. E. Braddwell.
Like City, Fla., August, 22d.
In view of the great damage inflicted
by weevils in some sections of the South
and especially in Florida, the above en
quiry is an important one. Even in
Southern Georgia and Alabama the loss
from weevils frequently amounts to per
haps not less than ten per cent, of the
whole crop, and we have estimated the
injury at fifty per cent, where corn has
been kept until the following May.
Among the preventives we have heard
of -some of which we have tried—are
the following:
1. Gather corn when wet or store it in
unroofed crib.in the shuck until thorugh
ly wet. It is generally claimed that the
heating which the corn undergoes, when
put up wet, will destroy the weevils.
Others say that the wetting causes :the
shuck to adhere more closely—protecting
the ears. The answer to this explana
tion is, that in fact the weevil attacks the
corn in the field, and very few ears escape
before housing.
2. Mix China berries and leaves through
the corn as it is put into the crib. We
have tried this, with some benefit, we
thought. Would suggest w ilnut leaves,
which are known to be very effectual in
extripating fleas.
We invite answers to Mr. Braddwell’s'
enquiry from those farmers who have
found effectual preventive or remedy.
Meanwhile, will not Prof. J. E. Willet
give a short history of the habits of the
several species of insects that infest In
dian corn, wheat and peas for the benefit
of our readers ? Probably he can also
suggest the much needed remedy.
It makes a person feel sad to hear a crying
baby, suffering probably from some slight
pain, which could be easily relieved by the
use of Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup, which is for
