FARM WORK FOR OCTOBER.
The seasons, to date, have been gene
rally favorable for the operations of the
farmer—not too much rain for cotton
and yet enough to keep the potatoes and
other late crops in a growing condition,
and to facilitate the sowing of turnips
and fall glasses.
The most important work of this
month is the sowing of rye and oats, es
pecially the latter. In North Georgia it
were better if the sowing of oats had
all been done in September; but they
may still be put in with comparative
safety. October is the very time to sow
them in Middle and Southwest Georgia.
Our suggestions about sowing them in
cotton land have already been several
times presented to our readers. We ap
pend a short extract on the subject:
“Mr. D. Wyatt Aiken, in the Charles
ton (S. C.) A’t’ws and Courier, says:
, Early in September, 1879, I started
four plows (simply shovels) “running
round” the cotton in a field of forty-two
acres. Behind these plows followed a
man sowing broadcast among the cotion
red rust-proof oa’s, two bushels to the
acre. Behind the sower followed two
more plows, with sweeps, giving a single
furrow to the row, and covering the seed
almost as fast as they were sown. Before
sunset of the fourth day the field was
sown with about ninety bushels of oats.
Three weeks ago I threshed my crop,
and measured up at the thresher 1,260
bushels of oats.”
In many fields the cotton has been so
thoroughly gathered that even the stalks
may be plowed up and the ground sown
broadcast.
Extra care should be taken to gather
all the peas possible and force the ani
mals in pasture to appropriate the spon
taneous growth of the corn fields, saving
the peas for winter use, and for seed.
We would suggest to our readers the
propriety of utilizing the late growth of
cotton w’eed as food for stock. During
a short visit to the country a few days
since, we noticed quite a vigorous top
growth on all the cotton that had not
been destroyed by rust. It is well known
that stock are fond of the green stalks,
and tnere can be little doubt of their be
ing very nutritious. These tops might
be cut and daily fed to horses and cows
and thereby greatly help out during this'
time of scarcity. Dr. Bailey—the great
apostle of ensilage—even recommends
the storing of green cotton in silos for
winter and spring feeding. Possibly a
fair quality of hay might be made of it
if carefully cured. A bale of well cured
bright, 'cotton st dk hay might bring it g
exhibitor a medal at the approaching
Cotton Exposition- We suggest that
some ol our enterprising farmers make
the experiment, and demonstrate that
cotton can feed as well as clothe.
IRRIGATION.
A correspondent frim Thomson, Ga.,
says:
“ You sometimes speak of the advan
tages of irrigation, that we know; but
what is more important for us to know
is how are the hilltops to be irrigated.
Is there any way whereby the lands
above the branches and creeks can be
readily watered in dry weather ? Let us
hear something about it soon.”
We have no doubts whatever of the
great benefits that may be derived from
irrigation under circumstances which
render it necessary, and in connection
with a system of high culture. Irriga
tion has been practiced from remote an
tiquity in those countries where, with
out it,' the soil would have been una
vailable for ordinary farm crops, though
abounding in all other elements of fertil
ity; as, for instrnce the valley of the
Nile. There, the soil is wonderfully
fertile—made and kept so by the annual
inundation of this great river. The more
ancient inhabitants probably relied sole
ly upon such crops as would mature
without further moisture than that left
after the recession of the overflow. But
succeeding generations devised and con
structed great systems of dykes, canab
and reservoirs, by means of which a
much larger area was brought under sue
cessful cultivation, and it was possible to
distribute the supplies of water as need
ed for various successive crops. But it
must be remembered that very Ifttle rain
fell in lower Egypt—not enough to nour
ish vegetation—which made such irriga
tion absolutely necessary; and the exceed’
ing fertility of the soil justified immense’
outlays of’labor to extend and perfect
the system of irrigation.
In more modern times Italy furnishes
an example of artificial irrigation under
natural circumstances more like those
snrrounding us. In that kingdom rains
are not so frequent or copious as in this
country, and tne soils are perhaps not
better than our own, naturally. But the
long practice of the higher arts of culture
by the Italians—liberal manuring, and
a general intensive system, has not on
ly made a regular supply of water—in
dependent of rain showers—more impor
tant, but, at the same time has enabled
the farmers to incur the heavy (to us)
expenses of land and water rents. Irri
gation and high culture have so re-acted
on each other, that each has made the
other more profitable.
But the practical question suggested
by the above is,—can we successfully
practice a general system of irrigation in
this country ? Are our drouths so fre
quent and protracted and our soils under
favorable circumstances (plenty of rain)
so productive as to justify the inaugura
tion of anything like a general system of
irrigation? Wetbinknot. There must
be greater improvement in the methods
and details of culture which are under
the immediate control of the farmer, be
fore he can hope to become independent
of the clouds by resorting to irrigation.
Spring and summer drouths are not the
greatest agricultural evils in the South ;
and we think there is a cheaper way to
avoid their effects than be an expensive
system of irrigation—at least in thepres
ent condition of our agriculture. There
is too much room for improvement of a
practical and non-experimental charac
ter, that ought to be occupied before we
invtst our scanty earnings in dams and
ditches that may not be needed for two
or three successive seasons.
But under an intensive system of cul
ture, artificial irrigation may be made to
act as a most important, if not indispen
sable, factor. The celebrated yield of
corn produced by Dr. Parker in South
Carolina (over 200 bushels per acre) and
many others of less note, would hardly
have been possible with the most favor
able seasons, but were secured by arti
ficial irrigation, very heavy manuring, and
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1881.
the mod thorough preparation. Our
richest natural soils—river and creek
low grounds are capable of producing
very fair crops in dry years when up
lands would almost entirely fail. But
such yields would be very grdatly in
creased if the ground could be watered
at will. The plants would not then
have to be spaced with reference to a dry
year, but solely to the maximum yield
of the soil under the most favorable cir
cumstances.
Experiments in irrigation, then,
should begin with the portions of the
fields lying adjacent to a stream and but
little elevated above it, and extended to
higher ground as experience may direct.
•t is usual to throw a dam across the
stream at some convenient point at a
level sufficiently high to control the wa
ter and to force it into a hill-side canal.
This canal should have a very gentle fall
and should be wide and deep in propor
tion to the quantity of w’ater to be used,
the latter being controlled by a gate at
the upper end or inlet. Below this
canal and only a few feet distant a small
ditch should be accurately run on a per
fect level, and a succession of such
ditches every twenty to fifty feet (acc >rd
ing to the declivity) until the bed of the
original stream below the dam is
reached. The water being turned on in
the main canal, it is drawn from it
.through small gates at convenient dis
tances along its lower bank and allowed
to fill the first small ditch, from which
it overflows in a continuous sheet to the
second, and so on until the whole area
is watered. The earth from the small
ditches should be scattered below each,
leaving no bank, and filling up any
equalities that may exist in the surface.
The main canal should be continued on
the same grade or level as far as the
water, in sufficient quantity, can be ap
plied, or to the boundary of the farm.
A similar system may be constructed
and operated on the opposite side of the
stream, (if the water be sufliciem) using
the same dam.
The method roughly outlined above,
is compiled chiefly from an original
prize “Essay on Irrigation” by that gifted
writer and thinker, the lamented C. W.
Howard. While we do not agree with
him in the belief that a very large por
tion of upper and middle Georgia is
adapted—in its topography and natural
water system —to hillside irrigation, yet
there are many localities where the
plan may be tried with a prospect of
profit. It is well to remark that irriga
tion is generally applied to pastures,
meadows and rice in those countries
where it prevails as a system.
SMALL NOTES.
Cotton Seed Oil. —Those who have
never used this article as a substitute for
the grease .of swine, have little idea
what an improvement it makes in culi
nary affairs. We do not mean, of course,
the unclean and unsavory oil as it comes
from the huge press at the oil mill, but
the nice, pure, delicate article article
which the refinery furnishes.
Its superiority over lard in the matter
of sweetness and cleanness, cannot be
questioned. The refined oil is absolutely
clean, and so pure is it that now, as we
have heretofore stated, it is extensively
sold and used as pure olive oil. It is
quite the equal of that famoMs oil —no
'epicure, however delicate his Valate, b(i~
ing able to detect the difference.
For frying fish, and indeed for fryings
of all sort, it is unequaled. A gentle
man of Florida, whose table is rarely
without fish, long since substituted it for
lard, and declares that it leaves the
genuine flavor of the fish entirely un
touched.
A lady of this city, whose table is
noted for its delicate dishes, says that for
all frying purposes it leaves lard clear
out of sight. What is more, the same
oil that has already fried a fish, if set
aside, may be again used for the same
purpose. Os course, it would have the
“smell” of fish and could not be used for
anything else.
A gentleman of Montgomery manged
to smuggle a small quantity into his
kitchen, and counselled his cook on the
sly how to use it. When the biscuits
and batter-cakes; which had never
known the smell of hog’s grease, came
to the table the next morning, they were
discussed and decreed to be first-class by
all the female members, before the
“lord” dared to make known how it was
that cotton seed oil and not lard had
entered into their composition. It was
hard to believe his revelations, but there
was no going back on the joke, con
firmed as it was by the cook.
In fact, the testimony of all who have
tried it, pronounce it equal to the very
best article of lard. And it is said that
our Hebrew friends use it now exten
sively as a substitute for goose grease.
And what is of particular interest, it is
said that this pure, delicate vegetable
extract costs only about half as much as
the extract of pork.
