by moro cheerful crop accounts and at thia
writing advices from the fields in nearly every
incident state that the cotton plant Is pro
greasing under the most ideal conditions.
The large producing area of the southwest
has received splendid rains, encouraging the
belief In a bumper yield from that quarter.
The rest of the belt has had alternating sun
chine and showers just in the manner and
quantities required.
Outsi’le of the crop being admittedly late,
there has rarely been a time at this reason
of the year when climatic conditions were so
favorable.
With the large surplus (visible and Invis
ible) carried over from last year, and with
the new crop now moving In the southwest
; traders are realising the difficulties of su«-
i latnlng values at the 12-cent level, especially
with the possibilities ot another large yield
< in prospect.
Accounts from the European markets are less
optimistic in regard to the spot situation there,
where supplies are very large. Then, too, it
now looks that the Indian and Egyptian crops
are going to turn out much larger than last
year.
While rallies mar come from an oversold
) market, there is little else In the immediate
outlook to encourage tbe belief in any ad
vance.
We advise the sale of December and Janu
ary on all upturns.

Question
mention of the creek for use in irrigation purposes.
Now, this land has been run in cotton for several years and pro
duces about one-half bale of cotton per acre with a vary small amount
of commercial I should like to try a small area of this land
in Irish and sweet potatoes next spring, to be followed with a second
crop of Irish potatoes planted in the late summer on the same land
which grew the early spring crop. I am thinking of discklng this land as
soon as the cotton has been picked off this fall, running Avery’s sub
soilers behind the discs and then next spring running 20-inch disc cut
away harrows over the land at least three times before making prepa
ration for distribution of fertilizers and seeding. About how much
fertilizer and of w’hat grade should be used upon this land? How wide
do you advise making the rows and how far apart seeding in the drill?
How much land would you advise devoting to Irish potatoes under
the above manner of preparation (or such changes as you may sug
gest)? •
As to irrigation, I see no reason why that should not economical
ly and effectively be done, but having no experience in shen work, do
you know the best manner in which to proceed (the creek being my
source of supply water) and therefore, invite your suggestions on such
preparations for irrigation either by flushing or overhead irrigation?
Hogansville and would furnish two good nearby mar
kets and I might possibly ship the remainder of ths crop to advantage
to the retailers in Atlanta, or some good reputable wnolesale house
there.
Now, Mr. Brown, in conclusion, realizing your ability along sev
eral lines of industry and the interest you feel in the welfare of oth
ers, I will deeply appreciate any suggestions or methods by which 1
may profitably grow and handle the potato crop, or any other cjop
adapted to our section. SUBSCRIBER.

ANSWER.
In reply to your letter, which covers a large range of questions
and information asked, it is just what I desire and wish there were
more people interested in this proposition and would investigate it
thoroughly and give it a trial. This is one reason w'hy we do not have
more of a diversity in this country, because there are many who are
not willing to make experiments and really know what can be done.
Your land, however, would not produce an extra large crop of potatoes,
but I am confident on the whole they would prove more profitable
than if planted in some other ordinary crops such as cotton, etc. I
know of but very few people who are in the potato business in the
South and before you get into the business on a large scale it would
be best for you to visit some of the large planters around Hastings,
Fla., or Greeley, Col., or around Norfolk, Va., and see just how they
handle their crops on a large escale.
I would not advise a large crop of spring potatoes unless you have
an abundance of water and some way by which you could keep them
free of bugs, as you cannot successfully grow a spring crop without
these.
The fall crop also has its ups and downs, but the greatest trou
ble with it is getting a perfect stand during July and August and it
is almost impossible to do this without water supply.
Unless your land Is very rich it does not pay to try to make two
crops of potatoes on the same ground in one year, but it is better to
follow the grain crop with fall potatoes rather than take the chances ot
getting enough of a season in the ground after digging the spring crop.
It would possibly pay you, as soon as the cotton crop is off your
land to dynamite several acres of your land near water, rather than
attempt to subsoil it. It is far cheaper than plowing and will last six
or seven years and does not have to be repeated every few years. This
can be dAne by taking a crowbar and jamming it into the ground as
deep as you can* get it. Then»take an auger three feet long and bore
out the soil to a depth of 30 inches. Put half a stick of 25 per cent
dynamite in the bottom of these holes, tamp it well and when this
is exploded it will loosen up the ground for 7 1-2 feet all around so
that it will take the water and will last for years. These blasts can
be put in every 15 feet. The holes will have to be settled back and
then it is ready for plowing. The blasts do not blow the soil out of
every hole but tears the soil up under the ground and allows it to
take the winter water and store it up in the soil for use the following
summer.
As early in the spring as possible potatoes should be put in the
ground using a complete fertilizer containing a large per cent of sul
phate of potash and acid phosphate and if this is bedded on with a
lot of leaves and straw it makes a fine soft bed for your potatoes to
' grow’ in. I do not think anyone should undertake to grow potatoes
unless they make up their minds to use from one to tw’d tons of fer
tilizer per acre and to do this it takes good land and a sufficient water
supply should be had and where you can use it at your command.
Heavy fertilization will force the potatoes and with the overhead ir
rigation you can absolutely depend on the seasons any time. It usual
ly costs from S2OO to S3OO per acre to install these'plants, which in
cludes the cost of the engine, etc. This is based on a tract of five or
more acres, but it will usually last from 10 to 20 years and gives
you an absolute certainty on every crop and fixes you so that you
can use an abundance of fertilizer. With this irrigation on your land,
properly fixed, you can easily make two crops of potatoes every year,
as you can protect the potatoes late in the Beason from killing frost,
<which We usually have about the last of October and which is at a
time they are at their best.
This overhead irrigation system also provides away by which
you can keep your potatoes sprayed and free from insects and potato
blight, which is almost as bad as insects.
You might try the potato business on a small scale tnis coming
year and if you like it and see that it is profitable then you can go
ahead and equip yourself with machinery for digging and planting, etc.,
by which a lot of work could be accomplished with little labor.
The day will ome when there will be large potato farms in the
South as nearly all the land in this country, especially the class you
have. Is naturally adapted to potato growing, either sweet or Irish
The Potato Book, written by Grubb, who is one of the nest posted
potato growers in the world, is sold by nearly every book store, would
give you a lot of information on the subject, more than I could write
for some time, but instead I can Show you on my own place several
acres of potatoes under irrigation that would probably interest you
and show’ you what can be accomplished on the red hills of Georgia.
My eyes have been opened this season to the possibilities along
this line and up until this year I had discontinued planting spring
potatoes altogether, but with the new methods of fighting insects and
blight and having the seasons at your command it has given an
abundant yield in the spring as well as in the fall.
My late potatoes will be planted next month on the same ground
from which the spring crop has been
• harvested, which will be done in the <2/?
next few days. I will be glad to give
you any further information 1 can on .
this subject. Yours very truly,
QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
‘I am a beginner and expect to
increase my stock to 500 hens. I
have 3-4 of an acre and want to
hatch from an incubator 100
chicks per month. Will I be too
crowded? I want to get a book
with suggestions as to arrangement
of grounds, houses, etc., also an
address where I can get poultry
supplies of all kind*. Would very
much appreciate your suggestions.
I have kept all the poultry let
ters from the Journal which I find
so helpful.”
AN APPRECIATIVE READER.
ANSWER.
Three-quarters of an acre will
easily aecoihmodate 50« nens and
it will not be too crowded to hatch
100 per month. You can get a
book on poultry buildings, etc.,
from the American Poultry Jour
nal. Chicago, Ills.
You will find advertised in The
Journal, poultry supplies of all
kinds. Both of the Seed Dealers in
Atlanta who run an ad in the Jour-
I have read with a great
deal of interest your articles in
The Journal on the ’’lrish Pota
to Crop and its Importance in the
Soutjj.” In this connection, I
wish to have a personal discus
sion on the subject with you, ful
ly explaining the nature of the
soil and equipment for growing
of this important crop, and most
cordially invite your criticisms
and suggestions thereon.
I have 715 acres of land two
miles west of Hogansville, being
only 11 miles- northwest of this
place, on which I have a field of
about 60 acres of a deep mellow
loam, with clay subsoil, free
from rocks and other obstruc
tions, lies slightly rolling to the
south and is about 12 feet above
the bed of the Yellow Jacket
creek. This land has a natural
drainage and does not wash to
amount to anything from exces
sive rains, and has at no time
been subject to overflow from
the creek, but I have merely made
nal can supply you with any kind
of supplies that you may wish.
Will you please tell me how to
get rid of chicken mites. They are
all under and in our barn. The sand
and nests are full of them and ev
erything about the barn is full. I
can not hatch off any little chick
ens. When I set a hen she will sit
a week or two and the mites get so
bad she will quit the nest. Now,
please tell me how to get rid of
them.
MRS. G. W. HOLBROOK,
Alachua, Fla.
ANSWER.
You can easily get rid of the
mites by freely using tar of any
de/crfptlon. Nearly all the gas
compahies manufacture tar for this
purpose. You can get of the Jack
sonville Gas company, of Jackson
ville, Fla., at a very small cost, and
by painting the walls and any place
where the mites are likely to crawl
it will certainly kill them. It is not
necessary to paint the entire place.

If a strip six inchos wide is painted
around the house any mites that
crawl near it will get stuck and It
will kill them. The Atlanta Gas
company, Atlanta, Ga., make a prep
aration especially for this purpose,
called Gascol tar, for painting
roosts, nests and chicken houses,
and It certainly does the work.
If you cannot get anything but
the ordinary tar used for roofing •
purposes It can be thinned down
with gasoline sufficient to paint
with it, and a few applications will
usually clean your premises.
I am going to build a new fowl
house and if it is not asking too
much of a favor, would be glad if
you would give me some idea as to
the plan on which to build it. I
keep about 100 hens. I have read
several of your articles on the drop
board, but have ntever been able to
exactly understand how it is ar
ranged. In building the house I
wanted to have a good large shed.
If it is convenient I would be glad
to hear from you at your earliest
convenience as I am expecting to
get the lumber sawed right away.
Your letters have ben a great help
to me. Any ideas you could give
me would be very thankfully re
ceived, as I' am anxious to get a ,
nice, convenient fowl house. ,
MRS. M. A. COLEMAN, ,
Silver Street, S. C.
ANSWER.
The best house you can possibly I
build for 100 hens would be a house
12 by 30 feet, facing south. Both
ends and back should be tight and it (
should be boarded up three feet ,
from the ground in front, with wire •
netting the balance of the way up,
so as to let in the fresh air and I
sunshine. By making the house I
five feet in the rear and seven feet ’
in front and placing the nests right
under the front edge of the drop
board placed in the rear of the
house, you will have a place which .
will easily accommodate 100 hens.
If you wish to do so you can place
an eight or ten-foot shed In front.
However, this is, not necessary. |
Have mailed you a drawing of the
drop board, roost and nests.

ANSWER.
The best way to get rid of the '
lice on your pigeons is to d,p them ,
in a solution of one part Be Dee ’
Dip to 5 parts or water. This 1
should be done in the middle of the ]
day. You will have to be careful
and not let the pigeons go back on :
the eggs or little squabs for two j
or three hours after they are
dipped or they will ruin the eggs
and kill the right young squabs.
