The Farmers’ Index. All letters Intended tor the Editor of this De partment should be addressed, “Fabmkbs’ Index, Drawer 24, Atlanta, Ga.” 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.
