Short Chapters on Vegetable Culture.
THE ONION.
The onion is one of the most profitable
vegetables grown by the market gardener,
and is one of the most desirable to find a
place in the home garden. There may be a
few other vegetables that yield larger
profits and are more esteemed for continual
use, but the statement made that it is one
of the most profitable and desirable cannot
be gainsaid. It is fairly entitled to a place
among the "nine worthies” of vegetable
culture. Like a number of our garden
vegetables, the onion possesses marked
samtire qualities along with those of a
nutritive character. Like the cucumber
and some other vegetables, it is hoary with
age, having been transmitted to us through
more than thirty centuries. The genus
Allium emhraces a number of species
and each of these are composed of many
varieties. The onion of commerce, and
most extended garden and field culture, is
the Allium Cessa, a biennial, developing a
large bulb, and is propagated from seeds
which are produced the second season.
For seasoning purposes it is desirable some
times to draw lightly on other species,
such as the potato onion and shallot. But
for table use as a boiled vegetable the com
mon onion Allium Cessa claims al
most exclusive consideration. Of this
Bpecies c.ur American catalogues embrace
about a hundred namel sorts, but there
are not that many distinct varieties. There
are a considerable number of distinct varie
ties distinguished bv a marke 1 difference
in color, shape, size, flavor and period of
maturity. V, e l ave well-bred American
varieties, and other varieties of Italian,
Spanish and Mexican origin. It would ap
pear that perfec ion has been attained in
the development of the onion, and
that there is no need for the
further multiplication of names. The
seedsmen must have some novelties every
year, even if it amounts to nothing more
than giving anew name to some old va
riety.
In treating of practical onion culture it
is not necessary to name more than three or
four varieties, or at most a half dozen.
The three leading American varieties are
the yellow globe Danvers, the Wethersfield
and the Southport globe (either white or
yellow).
Of the Italian or Spanish varieties the
new queen, the rod or yellow Rocca and the
white or red Tripoli are unsurpassed proba
bly by any other varieties.
A variety known as the prize-talker,
which is a mere local name, is a very pro
ducts and desirable kind. Doubtless it is
only anew name applied to one of the Ital
ian or Spanish varieties.
Besides the above, others could be named
that would yield profit and satisfaction, but
there is no need for naming more. Multi
plying names tends to confusion.
The southern home or market gardener
makes his first planting of onions iu the
fall, from the middle of September to the
middle of November. This crop is grown
from the sots usually. In fact, nearly all
the onions grown in the south are raised
from sets put out either In the fall or dur
ing the early part of February. Appar
ently there are only a few who are aware
that the onion can be grown from the seed
as readily here as at the north, and
especially where the Italiau varieties are
cultivated. The writer time and again has
grown much finer onions from the seed
than from the sets. Raising a crop from
the sets, it is true, does not not require
the same amount of care and
watchfulness that a crop grown
from tbe seed does: but there
are some advantages on the
side of seed planting not p ossessed by sot-
I>ianting, and the reverse is also true. To
crow a crop for use or market early in the
spring when the onions are sold in a groen
state (some weeks before they would have
matured) it is a good plan—one not likely to
ht discarded —to use the sets and plant them
iu the fall. If the sets can be secured rea
sonably, and especially where properly
grown from a good variety, it is a very sat
isfactory plan to pursue with a good part
of the crop. From a long and
successful experience in the culture of
o lions we can command the use of sets only
for that part of the crop that is designed to
bo used at home or marketed in a green
state. Onions grown from sets do cot keep
well even if they bulb perfectly instead of
shooting to seed prematurely. We have
had a good many crops, apparently very
p omising in Maroh, prove almost absolute
failures iu April or ilay from the develop
ment of seed stalks instead of forming
bulbs. This renders the onion unfit for use
—except perhaps for seasoning. If pro
tracted drought should occur, os it often
times does in the spring, the check given to
the crop results iu a greater or less effect of
this kind. It depends upon the nature
and the character of the sets used whether
it will be a crop of perfect onions or a crop
of scallions.
If properly cultivated a crop grown from
the seed is the one that makes the finest
onions and the best keepers.
***
On rich, sandy soil, using good, fresh seed
of the Italian sorts named, it is just as easy
to make u good orop of onions from the
Seed as are made in New England. If the
onion could be as easily preserved as it is made
in our section the south could supply the
rest of the country with it as cheaply as it
can be grown any w here, but there is the
trouble—it matu esso early and so far
ahead of oold weather it renders their pre
servation in any considerable quantity
impossible. We have grown all
sorts of onions and with various ways of
planting, and have succeeded with the crop
in every way except through
the hot summer or autumn weather. The
crop cannot be kept growing up to 000 l
weather, as is the case in the north.
Whether planted in February, or April, or
May, the orop will oome to maturity, be
it what it may, along in July, if not earlier,
and decay inevitably follows the attempt to
store them in bulk. In a small way the
onions can be kept by braiding the tops
together, and hanging them in a dark but
airy place. Quite a fair supply may thus
be preserved for home use, but the plan
Would not answer the purpose of commerce.
***
While the use of sets affords ajv.'ry con
venient wiy for growing an early crop for
use in the green state, it is a very expensive
plan and not to be resorted to when a crop
to be preserved is sought after.
Twelve or fifteen years ago we adopted
the plan that is now being commended as a
great novelty by a number of horticultu al
writers, of simply raising plants from a.i
early sowing of the seeds and transplanting
these plants in place of sets just as early in
the season as possible. This is a very excel
lent plan for southern practice. Onion seeds
are usually to be had for about $1 50 per
pound. At a low estimate there are 130,000
seeds to the pound, and it oe tiia'.y does
seem reasonable that a pound of seed should
afford 44,000 plants if properly planted and
looked after.
If we have our rows two feet apart and
allow the plants a distance of six inches in
the row it would require 43,264 plantß to
set an acre; at four inches 62,400. Allowing
for various accidents to reduce the number
of plants considerably it is certainly a rea
sonable expectation to count on a pound c f
“fair” quality seed yielding 43,000 if not
62.000 plants. Unless special care is exer
cised In the purchasing of seeds it will be
quite possible to get a quality hardly worth
the trouble of planting. Not to multiply
words in regard to this part of the subject,
the following advice is here insisted upon,
buy your seeds in September of a well
known seedsman who will guarantee that
they are of the new crop of seed and true t ‘
name. We could name a half dozen seed
growers from whom new crop seed can be
obtained in September and possessing a
Vitality of 90 per oent. if not more. Fresh
seed is of course very important, and all
necessary pains must be taken to secure '
tneru.
**
To secure plants of good size to be set out ;
(in Middle Georgia! from JaD. 30 to Feb.
-0 (and later), seeds "fresh and true” must
bo sown iu properly prepared tieds in Octo
“er—the earlier iu the month the better. If
tbe seeds are perfectly fresh and the sowing
so carefully made as to insure prompt ger
mination, Oct. 1 is sufficiently early, usu
ally, for Middle Georgia sowings, but there
is no objection to making it a little earlier,
say Sept. 15 or 20. This sowing- can be
made to advantage in oold frames where
only n few plants are needed to be grown.
With the aid of pine straw to mulch tbe
plants when severe weather occurs, they
can be grown very readily in the open
ground. This method of transplanting is
very practical and profitable, the work be
ing done at a season when other garden
work is not pressing, and the work of set
ting out several acres is not a very tedious
operation after the work gets well started.
Make the seed beds about 4 feet wide and
level it nicely, sow the seeds thickly broad
cast, say 12 to 15 to the square inch, cover
with a half inch of soil and then roll the
beds. The plants will appear in a few days
if the seeds are good, and the plants will
attain a good size before severe cold weather
occurs. It will be late in December usually
before there will be need to apply the
mulch. Duriiig warm spells in January
and February the mulch should be taken off,
but if tbe weather should prove con
tinuously cold the mulch should not be dis
turbed. Where one grows a large crop of
onions it will pay to have as many cold
frames as possible, but the onion and let
tuce plants can easily be secured by open
air planting and mulching. S. A. Cook.
The Forage Plants for the South.
TEXAS BLUE GRASS.
It will be a great day for southern farm
ers when along with the other grasses and
clovers that we have named this splendid
grass, so well adapted to winter and spring
pasture, has its appropriate place on the
farm. As remarked before, stock and
airy farming conducted on the most suc
essful basis will not be dependant on one
r two grasses, however good they may be,
>ut will inolude a half dozen or more, for
• m some soils one kind of grass will do bet
ter than on other soils. Some are better
adapted to pasture than for purposes of
bay. Some do their best at one season and
some at another.
Texas blue grass is new comparatively in
this section, but it Is extensively disseminated
in some sections of Louisana and Texas. It
belongs to the same family as the Kentucky
blue grass, but it is much larger and
coarser than it is, and is better adapted to
tbe lower latitudes of our couutry than tbe
Kentucky blue grass. vVhen once its
merit is generally known it is bound to re
ceive a fair share of attention from those
who recognize the necessity of giving in
creased attention to tbe various branches of
stock raising.
Well set on soil suitable to its perfect de
velopment Texas blue grass will prove a
lasting joy to the dairyman and stock
raiser. For winter and spring pasture there
are few or no plants that are superior to it.
Like Bur clover it is impatient of heat, and
dies down in May, but only to spring up
again with the first autumn rains. It is
more satisfactorily propagated by the‘‘gets.”
In entering upon its culture it is advisable
to sow tbe seed on a small area—from a
quarter to a whole acre, and from this grow
sets to extend the area with afterward.
Very great care of course should be exer
cised iu securing a stand, pulverizing tbe
soil thoroughly and getting it in as fine a
condition as possible, even more so than if
intended for turnips. Sow the seed when
the air is perfectly calm, and then roll the
land. This should be done in September or
October. November sowings usually suc
ceed, but it iB not safe to defer sowing until
then. The severest weather that we have
will not injure it, and it grows very rapidly.
There is no grass more relished by all kinds
of stock than it is. It is bound to be ap
preciated in the south some day.

Japanese Fruits in Georgia.
People who are not making a study of
the subject are not aware of the wonderful
impetus that is being given the horticult
ure of Georgia by the introduction of these
new fruits. There are positively no finer
fruits in the world than Japan plums or
persimmons, and all that is necessary to
convince any one of this fact is to sample a
few specimens of Botan, Chabot, Kelsey or
Satsuina plums, or, better still, try eating
a well-ripened Japan persimmon, either
a Yemon, Tanol Was hi, KuroKume or lly
akume. It is very natural to think “If I
was only in California or some other prom
inent fruit country I would invest in fruit
growing, but it is no use to waste money on
the busiuess here, because ‘cotton is king.’ ”
For the benefit of those who hold this view
of the subject I will quote an extract from
the non of one of the most prominent nur
sery firms in California, who own
extensive nurseries in Japan, and
who are well acquainted with our
soil and climate here in Georgia:
“California has a dry atmosphere, and the
oriental fruits will nevr succeed here os
they will in your southern states, which as
to climatic conditions are the very counter
part of the empires of China and Japan.”
Our own experience on the C .erokeo nur
series bears us out iu asserting that the ori
ental fruits, especially plums and kakis
(Japan persimmons), will eventually revo
lutionize southern horticulture. The pear
is now all the craze, but the plum only needs
to be known to become tne successful coin- !
petitor with the pear for the first place in i
the list of S mth Georgia fruits, and the ,
persimmon will be next to them.
We have fruited here among the plums
Botan,Kels j Chabot,Botaukio, Hatbankio
and Satsumt*. or Blood. Flura of Satsuma,
as it is sometimes oalled. Of the persim
mons we mention lane Washi.Yanon, Hyc
kurno, Tachiga and Kuro ivums. These are
all good varieties, and carbe etc 1
by the choicest fruits of Calif in a. Ths
facts in the case are that. Ge ugia is j .s.
good a fruit country as there is in the
United States, and if we will plant less
corn and cotton and more fruits we will be
a good many hundred thousand richer eaob
year. Do not put out trees, however, and
expect them to pay without any at
tention. What would be thought
of a farmer who would
plant out a cottou crop and then expect it
to produce a crop worth anything without
any further attention. Trees will come
nearer taking oare of themselves than any
thing else, but the man who expects to
make it pay must cultivate and fertilize his
fruit trees with just as much care as he
would his oorn or cotton, and, in speaking
of the Japanese fruits, we do not mean th.it
we have found something that will give best
results without cultivation, but tuat with
the same care and attention that it requires
for a crop of cotton, a crop of these ex
cellent fruits can bo produced that will pay
twice or three times the profits there is in
cotton, and the soouer we act upon this sug
gestion the better for us.

Experimental Farms.
In one sense ail farms are experimental,
says the American Cultivator. I arming is
not and never will be an exact science. J f
it were one could learn all there is to be
known about it, as men do with mathematics
and the rest. The true farmer is ever in
quiring and ever learning. His eve v
act is an experiment, and for many (f
them the result depends cn conditions of
rainfall, cold or hea , i character of the s 1,
that cannot pcssn ly ■ j • f reseen. Asa e i
sequence of this, m > of the farmer's ex
ments must alwi ys he unprofitable. He
therefore apt to wary about trying n
methods, too conservative often for his o l.
best good. This fully aeoounts for the un
doubted tendency of farmers to get in o
ruts which their owa experience and that < t
others have shown to be at least safe.
This aecounis in large degree for the slow
progress of agricultural improvement. It
JHE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, JUNE 22, 1891.
also emphasizes the necessity for experi
mental farms for tbe purpose of conducting
a senes of experiments which many farm
ers have been tempted to try, but dared not
afford the risk they involved. It is not ex
isted that the experiments on agricultural
farms shall be always profitable. Their
best success may often consist in proving to
the thousands of farmers who watch those
reports that they must keep shy of such
new methods. What proves profitable on
tbe experiment farm may safely be adopted
by any careful and generally successful
farmer. In the matter of running au ex
periment economically a state or national
institution cannot possibly compete with the
individual farmer who gives his own per
sonal attention to tbe details of his business.
Iu fact, if the experiment on tbe state farm
has not been wholly disastrous, a good
practical farmer may often be encouraged
to try it, with a hope under better manage
ment of making it profitable.
Much valuable information can be got
from experimental farms from exp< riments
that it was certain from the start would
prove pecuniary failures. The celebrated
experiments of Lavres and Gilbert on tbe
Rutbamstead farm in England admirably
illustrate this truth. For upward of forty
yean these gentlemen have grown succes
sive crops each of wheat, beans and baney
on the same land without manure. In
money returns this of course has not paid,
but the fact that without any fertilizer ex
cept that which crops derived from air and
rains the yield has kept up as well as it has
must be the best possible encouragement to
farmers for all time. If nature so nearly
does what is required, it must be compara
tively easy for man to do the rest.
One destructive experiment at Rotham
stead demonstrated completely tbe enor
mous value of nitrogen as a fertilizer for
wheat. In the very first year of his exper
iments Mr. Lawes tested the question
whether the ash of manure or its nitrogen
was the fertilizer that plants needed. On
one plat he put no manure. On another he
applied fourteen tons of stable manure.
On still another he applied the ashes of four
teen tons of manure of equal original value
before being burned. The result was In
wheat on the unmanured plat fifteen bush
els per acre; on the plat where fourteen tons
of manure wore applied, 20)1, bushels per
acre, and on the plat where the ash was ap
plied, 14bushels per acre. No further ex
periment in burning manure before apply
ing it has ever been needed on that farm or
anywhere elee. Yet the demonstration of
the value of nitrogen in the manure which
burning would dissipate is well worth the
cost of tbe experiment.
There are happily now experimental sta
tions in nearly every state, besides those
sustained by the general government. They
are doing a great amount of good, and
should be encouraged to do more. There is
so great a diversity in methods of farming
in various parts of the union that all of
these stations can work on the farm
problems of their various localities
without interfering with each other.
A day spent in visiting these
stations and study of the methods adopted
must prove of great benefit to practical
farmers. They need not be overcritical of
themethods, especially not on the basis of
making them pecuniarily profitable. If a
farmer visits an experimental station and
keeps his eyes open be will learn much more
than he can at agricultural fairs, where
only results rather than methods are on ex
hibition.
Goose Farming.
As compared with other varieties of use
ful poultry, there are but few geese raised;
and yet those who have proper surround
ings can raise them profitably. The farmer
who possesses a field that is rocky or hilly,
through which flows a brook, or that basin
it a pond of water, can raise them with
profit for flesh and feathers alone, as what
are termed “live goose feathers” are always
in demand at a fair price, and the young
fattened in the fall generally demand good
figures. To have them produce a good sup
ply of feathers of the finest quality, they
must have free aooess to water. To the
fancier of thoroughbreds, who has a place
hke the above, geese are more than douoly
profitable, as there is always a demand for
good specimens for breeding and sho w pur
poses, particularly of the Emden and Tou
louse varieties. In raising geese we claim
there is as much a right and a wrong way
as in raising any other variety of poultry.
If you would raise the largest per cent,
pos-ible of young that are hatched, and de-
Bire that they should became as largo and
fine as possible, it is as much a necessity
that the goslings never are allowed to have
access to a pond, brook, puddle or even a
pan of water to sit in, as it is for the older
ones to have free access to the water. Give
them cups to drink from and see that they
are supplied with all they want at ail times,
but do not allow them to swim until the
breast is well feathered; aud until they are
well covered with feathers see that they are
under shelter as well as the chioks during
heavy showers. Remember they are as
“ silly as geese,” and unless you see to it
that they are housed the chances are they
will stand in some corner with heads up
squealing and crying aud soaked to the
hide. Be careful not to overfeed the
young, or they will tie troubled with indi
gestion, weak legs, etc. Give them a past
ure with plenty of grass and feed sparingly
of fattening grains. After they are feath
ered turn tnom out with the old ones and
feed grain only once daily, and my word
for it, you will raise a larger a per cent, of
those hatched and they will develop into
large, fine specimens.
