The Farmers’ Index. AU letters Intended for the Editor of this De partment should be addressed, “Fabmkks’ Index, Drawer 24, Atlanta, Ga." THE 7ALBOTTON FAIR. At this writing we have just returned from a most enjoyable visit to the Tai botton Fair, which opene I on the 11th inst., to continue four days. Leaving Atlanta on the 12:20 a. m. train, without incident worthy of note, we reached the little city about noon and were met at the depot by our irrepressi ble friend, Col. J. B. Gorman, of the Reg ister and Standard, President of the Tal botton Fair Association and leader and Sorter of every public enterprise—the ‘r, sawyer, editor, farmer capitalist, ands adies man of Talbot county. After a ■capital dinner at the Thornton House we went at once to the beautiful grounds of the Association where the Fair was already in progress, though the number in attendance Was rather small. Enter ing the large two story building appro priated to the exhibition of samples of farm products, and illustrations of home industries, we were astonished at the great variety and excellent quality of the display. We were particularly struck with the superiority of the sam ples of provision crops—corn, peas, po tatoes, sugar-cane, rice and winter squashes,pumpkins,ete. Space would fail us in ennumerating every thing, and we will not mention names of exhibitors, as we mignt do injustice to some. Suffice it to say that the exhibit well illustrated the industry, intelligence and skill of Talbot county farmers and their wives and daughters. The long shelves and counters were tilled with innumerable jars of the most tempting preserves, jams, jellies,canned fruits ana vegetables, and the central portion of the building was draped with beautiful specimens of the skill of the ladies, in useful and or namental needle work. On Wednesday, the Fair opened in earnest, with a very largely increased at tendance of visitors as well as a consid erable addition to the list of exhibits. The occasion became a’pronounced suc cess. About noon the crowd were drawn to the stand by the announcement that the hour for speaking had arrived, and that Hon. David E. Butler, would de liver an address. All the readers of The Index know and love this gentleman, and many have heard him from the pul pit and rostrum. In an offhand speech of perhaps an hours duration, he held the attention of the audience from first to last, and well sustained his wide rep utation as an orator. After the speech, came the basket din ner on the grounds, for our share of which we are endebted to our friend I)ah Owens, and the domestic skill of his good wife. We spent a night with our old time army friend, Captain R. H. Leonard, now Ordinary of the county. They call him Judge now, but we prefer to give him the tittle by which we knew him in the time thattried mens souls. In the bosom of his charming family he is gracefully approaching the meridian of life; but in spite of the constantly adding years he looks as young now as he did ten years ago. But we must desist. We saw many friends —old army friends and others— and greatly enjoyed the occasion. We arrived home Thursday, and found the printer calling for “ more copy, ” and here it is. IMPROVE YOUR SIOCK. The time has been, in this whole ■country, but particularly in the South, when there were slmost unsurmount able difficulties in the way of the intro duction of improved stock. The great cost of thoroughbred animal?, the risk of loss in transporting them long dis tances—especially when brought south of their accustomed climate—discouraged until within a few years, anything like an extensive introduction of fine breed ing animals. Only a few were brought by a few wealthy fanciers and in several instances the selection of breeds was so unwise—so unsuited to our climate and •circumstances, that discredit was brought upon improved stock generally. The mangy, thick skinned White •Chester, and the slender, squabby, semi barren Suffolk, among swine; the heavy, overgrown Shorthorn, and the hunch back, breechy.Brahmin among cattle,and the long-wooled aristocratic English breeds of sheep, are notable examples of such mistakes. Southern breeders have found that animals or breeds suited to the rich pastures and grain-fields of the North are but poorly adapted to our impoverished methods and scant past ures. In fact, however, until within a few years past, there was hardly a breeder of fine stock (cattle) south of Tennessee; and individual farmers could ill afford to take the risk of bringing fine and •costly animals South. Now, practical breeders are located here and there in the upper half of the cotton belt proper who are rapidly accumulating choice herds of acclimated cattle and other animals suited to our climate and other conditions. The Jerseys take the lead and are having a regular boom. We have little doubt that this is the breed for all the hill country of the cotton states. No breed will do well or be profitable in the hands of the careless, improvident farmer, who valies a bale of cotton higher than a possible three gallon cow, or who runs his stock in the woods in the summer, starves them on a few shucks and what they can forage in winter -without shelter or care. -Such a farmer has no business with fine stock of any kind. The whole of Middle and North Geor gia and corresponding portions of adja cent States in the Ssst and West, is well adapted to dairying and mutton,and it is a burning shame that the farmers, dwell ing in this section, do not, in the aggre gate, produce a home supply of milk and butter. We doubt if the whole amount produced daily would give each person a glass of sweet milk and an ounce of butter. We are not in posses sion of the exact figures, but our guess is very far below what would be con sidered in the North a very meagre con sumption, and we would be glad to know that it is far below the truth. The cultivation of cotton is increasing in Virginia. It is grown in nearly every southern county, and the crop has crept up from nothing a few years ago to seve ral thousand bales last season. The cul tivation is likely to increase, since plan ters are becoming dissatisfied with tobac co, which they say does not pay and im poverishes the land. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1881. LUCERN. T t is not yet to late to sow this valua ble forage plant if the ground be well prepared and very rich. Lucero is what is called a hardy perennial, but when very young it is liable to be killed by severe cold. It is useless to sow’ it on land only moderately rich, The soil must be rich enough to bring a good crop of cabbage; and moreover it must be clean land—not infested with seeds of grass and weeds. If otherwise, the young plants will be choked out, as Lu cero is very difficult to hoe clean. The seed do best when sown in drills about two feet apart, so as to admit of cultiva tion, and September is probably the best time for sowing. If stable manure is used for enriching the soil, it must be well rotted so that it will breed no weeds. In lieu of stable manure, 800 to 1,000 pounds of super-phosphate—lightly am moniated —will serve for one acre on land in fair condition. Lucern sown in September or October will yield one or two moderate cuttings ne next seas m, but does not reach its maximum until after the second year, and will continue to produce an abun dance of highly nutricious food through out the summer (if moderately seasona ble) for a period of ten to fifteen years. After it is well established the ground should be liberally manured every fall. Lucera hay is very superior in sweet ness and nutritive value. All kinds of stock are remarkably fond of the green forage; and horses and mules—even when at hard work—require but little grain, if they have plenty of the wilted Lucern. One caution is necessary: Lucern will not bear grazing. The stock will bite into the crowns of the roots and this together with the tramping of hoofs— soon destroys the vitality of the plants. SMALL NOTES. Care of Milk Cows.-During the in tense hot weather of summer, cows, un less in very extra pasture, with a plenty of shade and good water, fail very much in their productiveness. When partially dried up it is hard to bring them into a full flow of milk again during the season. The greatest care should, therefore, be taken to give them a plenty of some kind of nutritious soilfeed—corn, oats or what ever green feed a farmer may happen to have. Feed they must have or dry up; there is no such thing as milk and butter w’ithout feed. If cows are obliged to work hard all day, in a short pasture during hot weath er to obtain barely enough to keep them alive, they will become to much heated and fatigued to keep up a full flow of milk, and whoever expects any profits from cows in hot weather must feed them enough so that as the heat of the day advances they may retire to the shade for comfort and repose. Excessive heat is more injurious to a milk cow than short feed. Cows require plenty to eat without great exercise to obtain it, and repose. It is more profitable to feed shorts, oil meal or other grain, where pastures are short, than to suffer cows to dry up. Cows should be driven very slow, par ticularly in hot weather, that they may not be overheated—and if yarded nights, should always have afull supply ofclean water. Cows give more milk and do better when kept constantly in the pas ture, unless they are soil fed in the yard or stable. The Memphis Appeal says that cotton seed oif has been introduced into Mem phis in biscuits and crusts, and has given great satisfaction. It thinks that we ought to drop lard, cooking butter and oleomargarine, and use our own South ern and cheap product, which is purely vegetable. For frying, making pastry, and cooking generally, and for eating with salads and cooking vegetables, the Appeal declares the cotton need oil alto gether superior. The Italians import large quantities of this oil, and mix it with products of the olive, and sell us the mixtuie at high prices. It is alleged that the resemblance is so great that an expert cannot tell the difference. But it is also said that the adulteration has injured the Italian export trade in olive oil to such an extent that the govern ment has interfered.
