will get little aid Srmn t-hesu In the early
winter, if they ate applied alter the weath
er gets cool.
THE rst OF KYK A\D PEAS t.\ 151-
PROVING LAND.
iT.et any one of our readers who has an
acre of cotton near his house sow immediate
ly a half bushel of rye broadcast on the acre,
and plough it in with a sweep. From l)e- 1
cembcr Ist, to March Ist, or even later,
this will afford good pasture for hogs. From
April Ist to 15th, apply a hundred pounds
of laud plaster and sow one bushel of peas to
the acre; turn under the rye and peas with
a good turn plow. As soon as the peas are
tfullly grown in weed, sow another bushel ot
peas, and turn the whole under again. When
£ix inches high use one hundred and titty
pounds of land plaster, while the dew is on
the plant. Pasture this with sheep or hogs,
and turn underagain, and your land vvil£ be
increased 120 per cent in fertility.
COTTON PICKING.
The utmost activity should now prevail
in housing the crops.' It is hardly necessa
ry to urge, that the pickers should keep
close up with the opening cotton, because
the idea of ready money in cotton is per
haps stimulant enough. Everybody knows
that clean cotton—that uion which no rain
has fallen—brings a better price than that
which is stained and soiled by rain. Every
one knows that it is easier to pick cotton in
the warm bright days of September and Oc
tober, than in the cold, windy ami damp
days when chill Noyember's surly blasts
are upon us, dfenoe we say tlieie is little
need of urging on this point.
PRECAUTIONS AGAINST FIRE.
But llicie is one thing we would earnest
ly press upon the attention ot our readers;
that is, never keep much cotton in a gin
house. Gin, pack' and store in different
places—as a precaution against tire—provid
cn you do not wish to sell as fust as it is
ready. For Jike reason remove seed from
gin-house—do not leave them in piles ex
posed to tiic weather, but put them in a house
where all their fertilizing properties will be
preserved. Cotton seed are chiefly valua
ble tor the nitrogen they contain, and tins is
very apt to be lost unless the rotting is care
fully watched and regulated. If all the cot
ton seed on Southern farms were properly
preserved and applied, there would be no
necessity tor the purchase of a pound of am
monia by Southern farmers—a fact, we are
glad to say, our people are rapidly realizing.
CORN.
But other crops besides cotton need atten
tion. A considerable portion of llic corn
will become -damaged or destroyed, if not
promptly housed. Ears that have taken
over on the ground will become wet and
sprout—others which remain erect will be
penetrated by water, and the lower parts
sprout or rot. Birds aud other animals will
depredate upon the crop, aud with the jioor
fences—almost everywhere to be seen—
hogs, cows and mules are very sure to de
stroy more less of it Do not be content,
therefore, with opening one field for tlie
stock, buf gather the crop as last as possible
Our best tanners prefer to store it away in
the shuck as a protection against rats. This
requires more house room, (log houses are
cheap) but as ai. offset there will be no piles
of corn lay lor days exposed to the weather,
waiting to be shucked—an operation which
furnishes good in-door occupation for the
cold rainy days of winter.
PEAS.
Peas too should be gathered promptly be
fore they become damaged by the weather.
Even with the varieties that resist dampness
best, such portions of them its are near or on
the ground, will become more or less dam
aged. The gathering of peas is a trouble
some problem. It comes at a busy time for
the cotton raiser, and hand picking of the
pods is slow and tedious work To pull up
the vines and thresh, whilst it greatly facil
itates the gathering of the crop, on the other
hand, destroys full half its benent, by rob
bing the land of the fertilizing properties of
the roots and othet debris Unhesitating we
sav, never gather a pea more than is neces
sary for seed, rather than thus rob the land
of its dues. Perhaps the best plan is to hand
pick so much of the peas in cornfields as
may be needed for seed—let stock gather
the remainder when practicable, but have
the main pea crop sown broadcast by itself
—or in drills and cultivated flat—so that the
the crop can be cut with scythes or a mow-
iig machine. 'Grain fields can thus be util*
ized after harvest, ar.d the gathered peas
fed to st'*ck. Such portions of the stems as
arc not eaten pass into the litter, thence im
to the manure, and ultimately find their
way back to the fields from whence they ,
came. Every one admits the great value of !
peas, but they have never fully secured I
tlicir true place as a food crop for work stock, I
aor has the proper fitting, in management
auJ harvesting of the crop been satisfactori
ly worked out. We earnestly urge this
problem upon the attention of readers, and
should be very ghid to hear from advanced
thinkers on the subject Our grain crops
upon which reliance is placed for, feeding
stock, are exhausting to land—peas on tlie
contrary improve it—and if they could be
.uocessfully raised and harvested, and made
itortorm a regular part of stick rations, it
would maik anew era in our agriculture.
Asa matter of economy in feeding, aud as
benefitting the health of animals, a mixed
.ruthin of .corn aud peas is deoidedjy preferu..
lUcito-OAPn alone. At another time we pro
to discuss this question of economical
feeding, but it is to large a subject to enter
upon here.
SWVtJET POTATOES.
Dig Imfore hard frosts, and if possible
when it is dry. Some succeed well with
potato houses—others fail—the conditions of
success I lave not lveeu fully determined
The most universally successful method is
storing in ‘hills" or “banks. ” It proper
vent ilution is provident for in early part ot
winter (building the “bank" around 4 yosts
sunk in the ground, so as to make a Hue in
its middle,) plentiful supply 1 t dirt jut u
p.s the Cold lucre. >es a id the polalevs kepi
drv. they are almost -sure to keep well.—
Failure generally jmsuH* from not putting
on dirt enough, hi aegton \\ here the
mercury descends to 12 degrees or even
lower* rite dirt covering should be at least
one iWtsin thickness. Cons unua the early
growu potatoes first. and leave the late ctop
for spring use—the latter w ill keep better.
