FALLOW CROPS
And Pastoral Farming.
In olden times it was a custom to let the
fields have a period of rest—every seven
veors—when no crops were sown, but by
constant cultivation of it all spontaneous
growth was kept down and the air freely ad
mitted to work its changes in the soil, whioh
it effected by rendering soluble those neces
sary mineral elements which had been
drawn on steadily for six preceding years of
oulture.
In the course of time, however, it came
to be understood that this practice was tar
from being the most rational one for secur
ing the benefits sought. It was found that
certain plants that were provided
with long roots tap roots—and
that furnished dense shade dur
ing the heat of summer when planted
upon soil that had long been cultivated was
by far the most effective plan for assisting
la the recuperation of the soil. The crop so
grown was either allowed to make its
growth and die upon the land, or was
plowed lu when it had mado its maximum
growth.
And so to-day we understand by the term
fallow crop one planted upon the land
purely for its beneflt, its recuperati >n. The
revolution inaugurated by the famous
Liebig in agricultural praotice has had able
coadjutors and abettors in others who have
followed the subjeot in the lines laid by
their world renowned leader.
The Johnsons, Le Rive and Gilbert Aleva
ter and a score of others that might be named
have shed a light on the science ot agricult
ure that leaves but little to be discovered in
agricultural science that is likely to add to
its practical value.
Fallow crops are to be found almost ex
clusively iu the use of those plants that con
stitute the family of the leguminous—tap
rooted pod-bearing plants that assimulate
nitrogen more freely than all other species
of plants.
Restore nitrogen and bumus to the soil
and the chemical changes set in motion by
their presence in the soil tends to the un
locking of these other valuable elements—
known as mineral elements—potash, phos
phoric a id, magnesia, etc.
Our cropping is more intense than it was
twenty centuries ago, and six years of con
tinuous cultivation iu hoed crops is far more
exhaustive of the elements of fertility than
it was then, and so it has come to be under
stood tnat so long an interval as six years
must not be allowed to lapse before doing
something for the land in the way of re
placing its exhausting elements. A wise
system is suggested ot making gradual res
toration every two or throa years at least of
that prime factor in the fertility of soil—
humus.
rfoienoe taugbt and practical experience
proves that, as a rule, soil well supplied
with humus oannot become barren or so ex
hausted as not to be able to produce one or
other valuable crops.
The primary object of fallow crops now
adays is for tbo purpose of restoring bumus.
In restoring bumus we restore nitrogen, the
most valuable aud indispensable elements of
ail.
It is a well-known fact that potash and
phosphoric acid lu an insoluble condition
exist iu incalculable quautity in all soils
that have been forest covered, and the pres
ence of humus and nitrogen play the im
portant part of unlocking the elements
gradually.
The northern farmer in his comprehension
of the value of clover and a sensible rota
tion has done for himself what tbe southern
farmer has sadly failed to and
If not increased the fertility of his soil.
Nature resents tbe greediness that tbe
southern farmer has exhibited in attempt
ing to take a "money crop” year after year
without regard to t£e year of fallow, refus
ing to restore that element of greatest tni
fiortance. The large majority have heed
essly gone ou violating tbe law of nature
until their soils have become so impover
ished they must needs cry out for "sub
treasuries” outside of their soils. The once
bch soils of the south are exhausted.
Profitable crops can no longer be grown on
touch of it, and all because of the exhaus
tion ot Humus and its power of assimilating
nitrogen gone.
It matters not what change may be made
to the hoed crops of the south If the neces
•jty for fallow crops is not appreciated by
wo farmer there can be no assurance of suo
wss,
A rotation must be observed that brings
to at regular intervals a leguminous plant
“tot is p jrel.v for the land itself. If he sows
°ats—the most exhaustive of crops—he
Oust learn to sow a leguminous plant with

~ e oats are taken off; a leguminous crop

Profitably utilize it. This land will yearly

should live to see it, to look upon tbe ver
dant fields and prosperous homos that will
grow out of a more rational system, in the
possession of aliens and strangers who ere
not in sympathy with our southland sod its
traditions. W e want to see these old homes

pastoral feature of farm life the fullest con
sideration. Then our worn soils wilt grow
rich again.
THB QUESTION BOX.
Pecan Culture.
Pecan culture is attracting the attention
of your readers to some extent. In your
issue of last Monday you mentioned some of
benefits of the same, and 1 see you advocate
the planting of the nuts instead of trans
planting trees.
For tbe benefit of your readers will you
in your next issue answer these questions:
L At what time ot the season should the
nuts be planted?
2. The bed variety!
3. How many nuts to the bill to insure a
stand?
4. How far apart should they be planted?
5. Can you name a dealer who has a good
variety of nuts!
By uneweriug these question* you will
confer a favor and oblige 8. N. H.
Savannah, Ga.
1. The nuts should be planted out in tbe
fall or early in the spging, but the nuts
should be kept lu moist soil until planting
out. After being gathered from the tree
the nuts should not be allowed to become
very dry before planting.
2. The thin or “proper shell’' is the best.
3. It is safer to plant three nuts to the
hill
4. Twenty-four trees to the acre, whioh
(fives adistanceof 42x42 feet apart. Peaches
or other fruit trees may be 'grown in tbe
middles, and may be cut out in course of
eight or ten years, or as soon as they appear
to trespass upon tho pecans. A great many
will make the mistake of planting tbe pe
can trees too close to start with.
5. The Texas Peoan and Seed Company,
Fort Worth, Tex., or W. R. Stewart, Oceau
Springs, Miss.
It is muoh better to plant the seeds pre
paring the hills carefully, planting seeds
that have not been allowed to become dry.
When tea to twenty inches high thin out to
one plant and cultivate until the young trees
get a good start. As stated, a crop of
peaches cau be made for several years iu the
middles, or sweet potatoes or pease cau be
made on the land to the advantage of the
pecans.
Poultry and Bee Papers.
"Which is the best poultry paper pub
lished ? Is there any southern paper devoted
to poultry?—to bees?” Harvey.
Bibb County.
There are a score or more of poultry pa
pers published in the United States. There
are a number of good ones, but we cannot
say which is the best.
There are several published in the south,
but we cannot reoall their names just now,
as they are not very widely known. The
Southern Fancier at Atlanta, however, is
one. The Southern Farm at the same place
has a poultry department.
The most widely circulated poultry pa
pers—and good ones, too—are the Poultry
Monthly, Albany, N. Y.; Poultry World,
Hartfort, Conn.; Farm Poultry , Boston,
and Fancier Gazette, Indianapolis, Ind.
We know ot no southern bee paper.
There are a number in the north and west.
American Bee Journal, Chicago; Bee
Keepers' Guide, Kendalville, Ind; Glean
ings in Bee Culture, Medina, O. The last
is regarded as excellent. All, no doubt, are
instructive and worth their price.
You can hardly name an occupation that
has not its journal.
By the way, why should there not be more
honey raised in the south?
Crimson Clover.
"Will crimson clover do well In South
Georgia? Is it not one of the very best
kiads for hay or pasture?" H. T. E.
Aes, it is only a question of good seed
sowed properly on soil fertile onough to
grow a crop. It will not grow on barren
sand or clay. Nearly all the cloverßdo bet
ter on good clay loams, but by sowing in
September-October, or even early Novem
ber, tbe crimson as well as other kinds will
succeed in sandy soil that is rich.
Like bur olover, the crimson is an an
nual. It will on good land make a large
amount of food, either to feed green or to
be converted into hay. Whether it would
suit your soil better than bur clover, we
cannot say. Tbe latter is a valuable plant
for Middle Georgia. We would bo glad to
hear from any of our readers who have
given tbe crimson clover a trial, and also
from those who have tested the bur.
We have no lack of desirable clovers for
this section of tbe country. Asa rule, mix
tures are to be commended.
Nitrate of Soda Asa Fertilizer.
I see this substance recommended for top
dressing oats and wheat.
1. Is it tbe best fertilizer for such?
2. Where can it be procured?
3. What is the price? Novice.
Nitrate of soda is a substance similar in
appearance to common salt. As its name
indicates it is a compound of nitric acid
and Bodium. and valuable on account of the
first element. It supplies nitrogen only to
crops, and consequently is not a complete
fertilizer. It has no phosphoric acid or pot
ash.
Where it is desirable to furnish soil with
nitrogen—ammonia—it is one of the most,
if not the most, valuable and available sub
stances we have. For use as a top dressing
it is not surpassed by any other for this pur
pose, being muoh superior to ootton seed
meal or dried blood.
Nitrate of soda is brought to tbit country
from Chile, where it occurs as a natural
deposit several thousand feet above tue sea
level aud where no rain falls. The commer
cial article contains about 16 per oent. of
nitrogen, nearly three times as much as is
contained in ootton seed meaL It is very
soluble, sc much sn os common salt, and
when applied to a crop becomes available
on the very first rain. It will not do to ap
ply it to the soil until the plauts have
reached a stags to make use of it, else a
good part of it will be wasted—be leached
away from the roots. It must be evenly
broadcasted on the surface. Must never be
plowed or put Into furrows.
Some ten or twelve years ego nitrate of
soda was not to be had in tbe United States
for less than SIOO per ton. Tbe seaboard
prices at this time, we believe, is $46 to S4B.
It is only tbe most advanced farmers and
gardeners in tbe south who have oome as
yet to undei stand tbe value of nitrate of
soda, and it is not used to tbe extent that
that value would warrant. Tbe market
gardener or trucker can, above all others,
use uitrate of soda to very great profit If
used economically, which means proporly.
Nearly every one needs a good spring
medicine, and Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is un
doubtedly the beet. Try U this season.

Bog Pasture.
Realizing the fact that the time has ar
rived when all farmers must know that we
oannot possibly prosper by growing 6 and
7 cent cotton and buy our meat and bread—
tbe truth is, there never was a time when
we ought not to have produced all of every
thing poisible for home consumption—l
thought perhaps it might be well enough to
give a cheap and practicable plan of raising
bogs, says W. W. Stell in Texas Farm and
Ranch.
I advise to use five acres for the pasture,
where parties wish to raise both for home
use and for market; a smaller one will an
swer for home use exclusively. Firet pre
pare tbe grouDd as for an orchard. Plant
Hicks Everodaring mulberry trees thirty
feet apart both ways—forty-eight trees to
the acre. Then sod one-half of the five
acres to Bermuda grass and the other half
to Texas blue grass. Use the roots of both
to plant, and plant about one and one-halt
feet apart in rows that are four feet apart,
leaving spaces ot six to eight feet next to
the tree rows, In order that the trees may
be well cultivated two or tb.ee years before
the entire ground is matted by tbe grasses.
If the soil is good the trees will then have
grown to large they are not likely to be
choked out by the grass. The Hicks mul
berry is a rapid grower and early and pro
lific bearer, and seems to be as hardy as the
wild mulberry. Bogins to ripen its fruit
here first of May, aud oontinuss four solid
months. This fruit is more exoeilent for
hogs and poultry and far better for man
than the wild variety, I have found tbe
Russian mu.brry, so highly reoommended
in Kansas and some other northern states,
wholly worthless tor fruit as compared to
the Hioks. The Downing mulberry, while
its fruit is larger than Hioks, is not so good
iu quality and only lasts about six weeks,
and the tree ie not at all hardy here.
Every Downing mulberry trej —old ones,
six to eight inches in diameter and eighteen
to twenty feet high—on ray place was
killed outright by tbe cold s lap in Feb
ruary, 1890. Both ,theso grasses should be
cultivated one or two years—that is. the
weeds, eto., should be keot down.
After this tney will be a ole to care for
themselves. A pool might be made in the
pasture, but when the hogs have free access
to this fruit and grasses they will require
but little if any water. In addition to, or
before this pasture is ready for the run of
the hogs—they should not be allowed to
run in it for one year at least, and perhaps
not until after two years; by no means until
the grasses are thoroughly established—one
acre in sorghum, or even one-half acre, I
have found to pay better than almost any
thing ou my place. The sorghum is used as
green feed and can be cut three or four
times during the season. Bogin to cut and
use it as soon as about two feet high or a
little lees. I feed this to all kinds of stock
with the very best results. Sorghum will
thrive in a very dry summer when many
other things fail. If we would go a little
further and plant, sav only one-half acre
each to Spanish peanuts and Brazilian or
Jerusalem artichokes, it would be a more
excellent thing for both sows and pigs, as
well as porkers. Of course the breed of hogs
should receive earnest consideration. While
others may differ, my own ch ice, and that
from experimenting with several of the
best breeds, is a mired hog—half and half
Poland China and Berkshire. Of ouurse it
is absolutely necessary to have the best of
full bloods on both sides to produce this re
sult. This five-acre pasture can he made
cheaply. Hicks mulberry trees can be bad at
$lO per 100 by the single hundred; in large
lots at less price. Texas blue grass roots
oan be had at $2 per 1,000. Bermuda grass
can often be had for the trouble of taking it
up. Don’t say you can’t raise hogs; I raise
my own meat and sell bacon eyery year. I
have just slaughtered and disposed of five
hogs of the same litter—aud not all of tbe
litter at that—at 10 months old. The five
weighed over 2.000 pounds, which is equal
iti weight to four 500-pound bales of co ton,
and at the same price of middling cotton. It
will not do to say that you can grow four or
even three bales of cotton as cheaply as I
raised these five hogs. It is my opinion
that 800 and perhaps I,OOJ pounds of first
olass pork oan be raised as cheaply as 500
pounds of middling ootton.
Tho Grass Crop.
The grass crop is one in whioh there is
never any danger of overproduction. It
has many advantages for all farmers. No
crop is so little afflicted by disease, none re
quires so little culture and attention, none
will produce s i largely for years from a sin
gle preparation and planting, none with
stand suoh extremes of temperature, and
none is so easily and cheaply harvested.
Still further no crop has such a widely
recognized cash value, and not one will keep
longer under right conditions and actually
imnrove by keeping than the hay crop.
Grasses are among tbe first plants to
start in spring and last in autumn to cease
growth. They make no special demands if
only provided with food, and constitute the
safest, surest anchor for the agriculturist
to tie to. Very naturally does the question
rise, Why is not grass made more of a
specialty?
Poultry Diseases.
The cholera and roup are two chief diffi
culties with which tne beginner has to con
tend, says an exchange. Geese and ducks
are partially exempt, excepting lameness
during the wet seasons. Turkeys are sub
ject to all tbe ills that affect cbickeus. and
they are not easily cured whoa sick. They
often become affected with roup in winter.
All kinds of poultry should be sheltered
during stormy seasons, if but an open shed
is provided. Another difficulty experienced
by poultry in winter, end especially on
stormy days, is tbe exposure to high winds,
which is disagreable to them. The hens do
not like to be closely oonflned. If some
sheltered resort can be provided where they
can work and scratch, they will thrive bet
ter and keep in laying condition.
Charcoal Beneficial.
We are great believers in feeding char
coal to the hens in soft feed onoe or twice a
week, says a writer in an exchange, and
believe It contains a sub'tanoo their organs
require constantly. As it acts on tbe blood,
it acts really on the life itself of the fowl.
When tbe blood ie thick and clotty, a dull,
■iok chicken will soon follow; thin blood al
ways means vig irons circulation, end on
good circulation health largely depends. If
your fowls lack activity, thsy need sosne
tbing that will etir tbe blood from it* slug
gish course.
Few, If any, of tbe criminals leave Italy by
aea, aa a strict watch Is kept oa all wbo *o out
of the country bv boat; these person* generally
taka tee railroad to some northern European
port, where they embark for the Unite-I Suttee.
Preference is given to the Netherlands •team,
ahip line, whose rates are lower than tbe others,
and wbuae vessels make a tanning at Boulogne
to accommodate Italian emigrants.
Better Grass Land*.
The American Cultivator says: Thereto
need of better grass lands in nearly every
•eotion. The demand for hay it never less
ened when It is properly cured from good
grass. But tbe basis Of all good bay is supe
rior gras*. Our grass lands ere generally
neglected more than any other crop, and
yet they are as profitable as three-fourths of
the farm crops. Nothing responds to good
care so readily as grass, end nothing In
creases tbe fertility of the. 11 so thoroughly
as clover and orchard grass.
It is not sufficient to say that clover it the
sure sign that the soil is being renovated,
for mauy lands cannot well secure a good
olover catob, but it Is more to the point to
say that the farm whioh has fine, rich lux
uriant grass growing on it is in good oondi
lion, and that its fertility is Increasing
every year. Most of our soils are suffering
from laok of vegetable material in them.
Commercial fertilizers have ruined many
by keeping from them tbe particular plant
food which nature supplies. Muck, com
posted barn yard manure, and even leaf
mold, may to a certain extent supply the
toil with the laoking ingredients; but no
artificial application of this nature oan
wholly make up for the loss ot the annual
orops of vegetables whioh nature turns into
the soil to enrich it.
Advantage of Nearness to Market.
The increased prioe of land near cities,
villages and railway stations,eve i for agri
cultural purposes, is not wholly speculative.
In a growing city the extension of popula
tion may in a few years make farm property
marketable for building lots. But meantime
for gardening, for milkmen and for small
fruit-growing the nearby land will oroduce
more at less cost than will that further off.
Oue reason is that supplies of manure oan
be more readily got. Stable manure is very
expensive, aa there is even with nearby
land not only a first oostof the manure, but
a greater expense of hauling it to the fields.
It makes a great difference also whether
two or three loads of produce may be mar
keted with a single team or only one. Labor
is more plentiful as population inoroases in
tbe neighborhood. Much also depends on
the lay of the land and ebaraater of roads.
One or two hills between the farm and city
greatly lessene its value. They diminish
the amount of produce that oan be marketed
and increases its cost.
