The great aversion wbich the negro o»
have to splitting rails and the scarcity ot
timbefiti many sections, will corape! om
farmers to devote their attention to the
subject of femes. Live fences or hedger
a good many yearsago were tried in man t
sections of our State, as may bo seen now
by what remains Of the briars that have
been left. We have many plants thai
will do well in Georgia as hedge plants
What is best or what is suited for different
localities we are not prepared to say. The
great difficulty we have seen in hedgo-
not succeeding in our section has been lit
want of attention. As a general rnl<-
Georgia farmors are negligent, and whet
they sot oat a tree or try anything new
if it succeeds without attention it is well
and good. We have seen in Texas a Cher
okee or McCartney rose hedge around a
whole farm through which or over which
nothing could puss. Twico each year tlii-
hedge was trimmed and uli bushes thin
had come up among the brims was cm
down to prevent the bushes from growing
up wbmh would injure the hedge. Alter
the war this was neglected, and in two
yearnlho bu-hes had grown up, the bri
ars had died out and there was many
breaks in the hedge. The same facts ar
known to us in regard to an Osage orang
hedge, when, us long as it was attended n
it did well and was a line fence, but in two
years of neglect it hud grown out of shape
and hud taken up so much ground a. i<
bccomo unmanageable. From observation
we aiyiioyvioce'l that with proper >tlen-
tion Hve'fiSnccs can bo made to anccved in
our section and in these u i\ s ?( piliurmg
from our fields it would bo a great protec
tion to our crops, and * hen limber is scarce
would be economical. We have a native
shrub or tree which in Englaud is used us
a hedge plant, namely, the hawihornc
The black locust might also bo used for
the same purpose.. Added to these is tho
McCartney roBO, Cherokeo rose, Pyracan-
thus,'Prickly pear or Cactus. Mr. B. H.
Wrigley’a Fairview Nursery, near Macon,
has a beautiful hedge of the flowing bear
wbictf no doubt will provo a valuable
plant for at least inside hedges. L.
Soot as a Manure.
As a top-dressing for grain crops and
grass, soot is a manure of great value. Its
effects are generally limitod to one season,
and it is more powerful iu a wet soason
than a dry ono. The quantity nocessary
to bo applied varies from thirty to forty
bushels per aero, and it is generally spread
by band. When well pulverised it can bo
spread-by a machine. Mixed with salt, it
has been found to produce astonishing
results, when applied to carrots, turnips or
potatoes. In Araesloy’s experiments, re
corded in the journal of the Royal Agri
cultural Society of England, it is shown
that land manured with fifty-four bushels
of soot, mixed with six bushels of salt,
yielded twouty-two tons eight hundred
weight of Allringham carrots per acre,
while the same kind of soil, manured with
twenty-four bushels of bone dust, yielded
twenty-one tons one hundred weight; and
with twenty-four tons of stable manure,
twonty-eigbt tons eight hundred weight
In anotber experiment made by Mr. Cart*
wright, while land without any manure
yielded 157 bushels of potatoes per acre,
thirty bushels of soot increased the crop
to 191 bushels, and thirty bushels of soot
mixed with eight ot salt, produced 240
bushels. By as small a quantity as seven
busbelsof Boot mixed with eight bushels of
salt, very astonishing results have been
produced, when the mixture was trenched
in to land prepared tor carrots. As soot
is derived from a combination of ditfereui
substances, its composition is variable —
Its valee however, may be ascertained
from th.e fact that it contains ammonia,
gypsum, phosphate of limo and potash.
Lime ought never to bo mixed with soot,
as it drives off me ammonia Tito proper
time for applyiog soot as a top dressing
is the early part ot spring Every farmet
might add to his crops and prevent the rsik
of destmotive flics by carefully collecting
soot at least once a month from-his chim
neys, stove-pipes smoke houses, etc., and
hoardfng it up fur application to his crops
in spring, mixingit with salt toincrease its
fertilizing -power.— Western Rural
Southern Agriculture.
A most tuiriesting report is that of the
Department of Agriculture ot tlieS'ate ot
Georgia, tit is u comparative statement «>f
the number ot acres plumed to different
crops jp, T873 und 1874 From tins it
appeas that the acreage of cotton has
considerably decreased ; 1,860.559 acres
were planted in 1873, and only 1,003 005
acres in 1874; a difference of 257,554 acres
This is'procisely what the Agriculturist has
long urged' upon Southern farmers, to
reduce the cotton crop and give more
attention to raising food and foddcrcrops
It is a fact that of late years much cotton
has been grown which bas not paid its
cost, leading the planter in debt and under
the necessity of buying his food. This is
directly contrary to the usual course
among good farmers, wbich is to raise all
the supplies for the farm at home, to have
nothing to buy, and raise a surplus to sell.
Under this system there may bo less money
passing through tbe farmer’s bands, and
fewer accounts to keep and settle, and a
less ahow ot business; but more of tho
money which ootnes into the farmer’s
hands remains there. It is gratifying to
learn that in Georgia this system bas been
inaugurated, and tbo increase * in tbe
acreage of corn in 1874 is equal to tho
decrease in that of cotton. Besides this
there is an increase of over 58,000 acres in
wheat; .over 89,000 in oats, and moro than
10,000 in sweet potatoes There is also a
large increase in stock of all kinds. But
one thing is yet needful. There is no re
port of ithp acreage of grass and clover.
Without those crops agriculture bas no eat
isfactory basis. No complete system of
borne eapply can exist without these.—
There can be no dairy; cheese and batter
must be brought from elsewhere, and beef
and mdtton purchased. Clover and or
chard grass, tbe beet of tbe standard
forage crops for tho South, will thrive
oxoelledtly in Georgia, while lucerne or
alfalfa wiU produce abundantly, and in tbe
mountain* ttmotby will yield abundantly.
The cultivation ot these crops should bo
•noouraged, It ia to tbo credit of|Georgia
that tbe r'eforra here noticed has been
noticed and oonsumated. Tbe resolution
introduced a year ago at Maoon bas thus
borne fruit. It is to be hoped that this
judicious policy will be perseverd in and
that fodder crops and stock breeding be
added to tbe list of new iiidoe’-’-B- An
increase of manufacturing can not occur
until food is plentiful andclieap.and udonae
agricultural popnfation is available for
holp. Capitalists are tempted to invest
where a supply of labor is certain and
steady. It is this diversified industry
that makes a locality wealthy, and each
industry hlllps the other Where thereare
many artisans, tbere are good markets for
farm produce, and farmer* thrive best
where there are mills and factories. We
commend this asooessfal effort of the
Georgia planters to those in others of the
Southern States —American Agriculturist
