SEEDING OATS IN JANUARY THE NATIONAL CORN SHOW HELD IN SOUTH CAROLINA Great Exposition Starts Jan, 27 and Lasts Until Feb, 8, Many States Represented L. D„ Fitzgerald, Ga., writes: I wish to plant about fifty acres in oats. The soil is a sandy loam with clay subsoil. We wish to plant this winter and want to know how they should be planted and what kind of fertilizer to use. Would it be ^profitable to use cotton seed as fertilizer? Is it best to put the fertil izer on when we Slant or Aait until spring? It is now very late to plant winter oats where one expects to secure the best results. Of course, this crop is often planted later than this and with success, but* much depends on seasonal conditions which follow. Our experience has, been that the early rooted oat crop withstands the winter better and yields a larger'return in the spring. If vre were 1 situated &uch as you are no effort would be spared to plant- these oats at once. Use either the Appier or Texas Rust Proof for seed. Use two bushels per acre so as to provide plenty of seed to insure a uniform stand. Apply as a minimum 300 pounds of an 8-2-3 formula per acre. There is no reason why cotton seed meal should not form the basis of this mixture. We would advise, however, against the use of cot ton seed as a fertilizer under oats. Cot ton seed at most will only fuVnish you about $11 worth of plant food per ton, and you can sell ’or exchange the seed and secure a larger proportionate amount of plant food in the meal than will be obtained through using-the seed. It is a simple matter- to provide a for mula of the character suggested using- cotton seed meal as the basis. In the spring we would use 50 to 100 pounds of nitrate of soda on the oats, depend ing on the degree of vigor they show. >.itrate of soda should be put on shortly after growth starts. The land intended for this crop will be in better condition if it is broken with a turning plow to a moderate depth and a good seed bed prepared. In south Georgia where oats are planted early, drilling them in may often prove satisfactory,, but late in the season we would .be inclined to put them in the 1 open furrow, for then even though the freeze may be of unusual severity, the crop will Ordinarily go through the winter unharmed and the yield will certainly be as great, if not greater, from the open furrow method than where the crop is drilled. * * * SELECTING PHOSPHORUS FOR GEORGIA SOILS. S. L. T., Elberton, Ga., writes: I have some goo-4 land which has been sown in rye and turned under green, and also well rotated in oats, wheat and peas. I\ think it contains a good store of vege table matter. I have also Seen apply ing barnyard manure. Do you think ground phosphate rock Would pay me better than acid phosphate, and what is the best way to apply it? ' (Cornell Widow.) "Well, did New York appeal to you?’ “Yes. It was ‘welcome’ when I came, and ‘well done’ when I wtent.” -- .Ground phosphate rock can be used to the best advantage on land which has been prepared and handled as you have managed yours: that is, it is first necessary to establish a rotation of crops and turn into the soil consider able quantities of vegetable matter, for it has been shown by experiment that where vegetable matter is present to aid fermentation and encourage the work of micro-organisms in the soil that rock phosphate gives much better re sults than on lands whiijh are low in vegetable matter, a condition which you know to be true of much of our Georgia land. Our experience with ground phos phate rock has not all been ehcour- aging, though we have had some very good results from its use under corn, especially where cowpeas and other legumes have been turned under and some yard manure applied. We have never used it in larger amounts than 1,000 pounds per acre, and we believe this to be the minimum application which you should make. We applied the rock at about this season of the year and scattered it over the surface of the ground. It was worked in with a har row later on, and then the cultivation and preparation for planting and to de stroy ^|eeds mixes it more thoroughly and completely with the soil. We be lieve this would be the best method of application for you to pursue. We are inclined to think that for immediate re sults avid phosphatt will give the best returns on land low in vegetable mat ter, and- that you can count on a fair profit from the use of the ground phos- phafe rock on land that is fairly well stored with vegetable matter. It Is quite certain that the phosphorus con tained in the ground rock will become quite largely available in the course of time even though you have to wait for some years to get all of it, the chances are that you will lose very little of it, so you will not be making an experiment which is likely to cause you less. Of course, in those sections of the country where they have secured the best results from the ground phos phate rock, their percentage^ of vege table matter and nitrogen run consider ably higher than* the average of Geor* gia lands, and this Is a matter which we should keep carefully in mind. * * * STORING HUMUS THROUGH LEAVES. G. G. S 1 ., Macon, Ga., writes: I have recently c taken .charge of some land which is badly in need of humus. I consider it too late to plant rye to turn under, but can secure an unlimited amount of stra\^, le'aves and litter to spread on the land, and would like to know if it is too late to apply this very thickly and turn under with a two-horse plow. On some of the fields I can put this material two to four Inches de£p, but I fear it will not rot enough to allow 7 proper cultivation by spring. Th e land is sandy loam, more or less rolling. I would appre ciate your suggestions in the matter. By all means secure and apply as muc.h vegetable matter to your land as possible. It would not be wise to cover it to the depth you have ‘suggested, but you need not be afraid to put a good coating of leaves and litter over the top of the soil and then plow the whole mass under. The sooner this can be done the better. Plow down to a goo^l depth and then before planting work well by cross disking so as to com pact the top soil and set in motion the capillary water from the subsoil to the surface. The only objection to using coarse litter lies In the fact that the top and bottom soil may not be‘suf ficiently compacted after it is plowed to restore the capillary movement re ferred to. Rolling the land and then disking it well will insure this taking place. Plow this material under as soon as possible, because there is liable to be a considerable amount of rain from this date forward, which helps to disintegrate the vegetable matter, es pecially when it is thoroughly incor porated with the soil. The character of plow used in turning under litter is important. It should be so adjusted that it will completely invert the soil and bury and mix the material with it. * + * FERTILIZING FOR TWO BALES PER ACRE. II. J., Hilltonia, Ga., writes: I have an acre of^land with a dark sandy soil and a yellow clay subsoil on which I wish to make two bales of cotton this year. Ttife * land was planted to corn last year and fertilized with two and a half or three tons of stable manure, 1.000 pounds of 9-3-4 guano, and 200 pounds of nitrate of soda. I made sixty bushels of corn in a bad season. * I am going to prepare the land well and fer tilize with five tons of stable manure and 1,000 pounds of guano. Do you think I can make two bales with the fertilizer suggeste.d? What varieties would you suggest? By all means make a special effort to prepare a good seed bed on the land you expect to devote to cotton. There is much more to be gained by thorough preparation than most of us realize. Plowing and stirring the soil helps to aerate it and to insure its friability. Of course, sandy land should not oe plowed so deeply as a rule as clay soils, because they are naturally more open and porous. This land will be greatly benefited and your chances of raising a large crop of potton enhanced just in proportion as you are able to add vegetable matter and yard manure. Five tons of well -rotted manure per acre would be a/ fair application, of course, if it has dried out or has fire- fanged, it will not provide nearly so much plant food nor will its effect in the soil be so satisfactory as where It has been well cared for and does not contain an excess of litter. For soil of the character you have described a 9-3-4 formula should answer very well for cotton. We think you could afford to use 1,009 pounds ^>er acre in con junction with yard manure. We are sure you would get excellent results from this combination if it had been possible for you to plow under cow- peas. Of course, th<^ fact that yo\i planted cowpeas in your corn w%s a considerable advantage, but still they do not make anything like the growth or accumulate as much nitrogen as where grown by themselves. Any litter turned under, however, would be helpful. In a favorable season arfd with good cul tivation and skillful selection of seed, we believe it is possible to crow two bales of cotton per acre with the fer tilizers and preparation suggested. Of course, the yield obtained depends very much on seasonal conditions and the management of the crop. There is no one best variety of cotton, as you no doubt have found out long ago. We have tested quite a few varieties 'on the college farm in the past few years, and among those which have made a good record the past year are Culpepper, Harly’s Prolific, Langford’s Improved, Stone’s Improved, Rowde, Mortgage Lifter, Smith’s Improved and Sunbeam. We do not think you would make a mistake in selecting seed of improved strains of Culpepper, Cleveland, Cook, and other standard varieties. * * * USING NITRATE IN A COMPLETE FERTILIZER. J. c/w., Molena, Ga., writes: Would it DU all right to add 100 pounds of ni trate of soda to a complete fertilizer? I have about-ten acres of very thin land in oats that I wish to build up. After the oats are off I am going to sow to cowpeas for hay, and put to oats again in the fall, and then in the spring plant velvet beans in every other row and turn under in the fall. What do you think of this plan? What is a good fertiliser for cane and sweet pota toes? It is all right to use 100 pounds of nitrate of soda in a complete fertilizer mixture to be used under ordinary farm crops. It is best not to use too much nitrate of soda in a complete fertilizer, but we think the amount you have de cided on is about right. It is best for long season crops, such as corn and cotton, to use a formula in which a large part Df the nitrogen is derived from organic sources. Cotton seed meal and fish scrap furnish nitrogen in a form sufficiently quickly available to meet the conditions of the crops men tioned, and' these two materials are con sidered good sources of organic nitro gen. ~ f By all means gj'ow peas on the land after your oats, and fertilize them, say 800 'to 400 pounds of a 10-1-4 mixture. We hardly think you will find it prac ticable to grow peas, velvet beans and oats together. You would be much more likely to succed if you cut the oats for hay or grain and then plant the peas by themselves. While they are a long season crop and do not* mature grain readily in most parts of Georgia, they will make a surprising growth and fur nish an abundance of green matter to turn under on most soils unless the season is extremely unfavorable and a very severe drought should prevail. ! Every farmer in the ^outh ought to be laying his plans to visit Columbia C., during the National Corn exposi tion, which will open its doors on the 27th of January and last until the 8th of February. It is not only the biggest thing of the sort which has ever been held in this state or the south, but in some respects it will be ahea£ of any thing the country hasaever seen. In a sense it is a misnomer to speak of it as a corn show. Of course, it is a corn show, and pre-eminently so, but it does not stop there by any means. Step by step it has grown in the last half dozdn years until ;rs scope has been broadened to include practically every important problem of agricultur al progress. The exposition this year promises to be by odds the best that has been held since the project was first conceived. More time has been allowed for prep aration and those who are in charge of it have been at work now for nearly two years making all the needful ar rangements and thoroughly advertising the event throughout the entire coun try. It i^ expected that at least thir ty-five states will be represented; be tween twenty-five and thirty agricultur al colleges and experiment stations will have exhibits; more individual competitors have been entered than ever before, and congress haying at last given the exposition officia? recog nition, the federal deportment of agri culture is Installing “the most compre hensive and elaborate exhibit ever put up at any exposition.’ Too obvious to require stressing are the benefits which the south should reap from the bringing to tips section of hundreds of the most prosperous and Intelligent agriculturalists of other parts of America. They will be here from the farthest confines o? the nation and a considerable percentage of them will be men who have learned in the school of experience how to estimate the value of undeveloped opportunities. It will pay the farmers of oou-th Caro lina handsomely to get in touch with them when they come here. They are readj 7 to teach and they are a*so ready to be taught. We can learn of them and they should learn of us. This is the first time the National Corn exposition has been held in the south. Its standing before the country is already established. Farmers of every southern state, and all others who are interested in the advancement of the people have ahead of them a great educational pit vi lege. They should wake up to the fact before it is too late. They should cfe-eermine with out further delay that tn*y will neft miss visiting the exposition for at least a day. and they will make every effort to prolong their.stay. It w?jt be too big an event to take in on ,the # run. Beans should be fertilized about as for cowpeas. A good formula to use unJ der cane and sweet potatoes on thin salidy land should cabry about 10 per cent of phosphorus, 3 to 4 per cent of nitrogen, and 8 to 9 per cent of pot ash. * * * PREPARATION OF LAND FOR SWEET A1S(D IRISH POTATOES. H. B. R. ! , Roanoke, Ala., writes: I will be glad for information regarding prep aration of soil and fertilization for sweet and Irish potatoes. The soil has deep clay foundation ahd has beert plant ed consecutively in cotton for years. I want to plant an acre in each. I have very litle stable manure, but cati prob ably secure more, but am afraid of it on account of objectionable grass seeds. Land which has been cultivated in cotton for a number of years is likely to be quite devoid of vegetable matter, and in growing Irish potatoes in par ticular, it As important to suply a con siderable ’quantity of this important and essential material. This may be accomplished through applications -of yard manure at the rate of about five tons per acre and upwards. Where only a limited amount of manure is avail able, it ‘majr be put under the drill row before the potatoes are planted. It is very important that it be mixed thor oughly with the subsoil, and that a light layer of earth be provided be tween it and the potatoes. For Irish potatoes we think an application of 800 pounds of iicid phosphate, 300 pounds of cotton seed meal and 300 pounds of muriate of potash will answer very well. This formula should be used at theVate of 500 to 600 pounds per acre. This fer tilizer will analyze about 7 per cent of phosphorus, 4.4 per cent of nitrogen and 8 per cent of potash. For sweet po tatoes the use of organic matter is not so essential, though some compost and little will be found helpful. The for mula suggested for I^ish potatoes will answer very well for sweet potatoes. * * * APPLYING AIR-SLAKED .LIME. J. D. M. W. t AndersonYille, Ga., writes: I have been told that air- slaked lime could be purchased for $3 to $4 a ton. T have two acres of bot tom land. It is fertile, but cotton plant ed on it rusts, and I want to know if lime would prevent this, and what kind to use. 1 It is quite probable that you have be come confused with reference to the << "WINCHESTER Guns and Cartridges In all zones and climates and for game of any size, Winchester guns and cartridges are used by the majority of successful hunters, as they have found them reliable and accurate in action and shooting, and strongly and substantially built.

The chances are that you and your friend were discuss ing the finely ground raw rock and not air-slaked lime. Finely ground rock can be purchased at a number of places at a cost of about $1 to $1.25 f. o. b/ the cars. If it is a high grade lock, that is, carries a high per cent of car bonate of lime and a low per cent of magnesia, this is probably a fair price for it. To this you must add the freight charges, and, of course, these will vary according to the distance to be shipped. We think the finely ground rock is ad visable to use at the rate of one ton per a^re on any land which shows a considerable degree of acidity. Last year lime g*ave us an increase of about ten .bushels of corn per acre. The lime should be put on top of the land after it is plowed and later on in the season may be worked in with a harrow. It should not.be mixed with the fertilizer, but should be applied from thirty to sixty days before the fertilizer is used. The raw ground roefc is not so active as the caustic lime, but it is less ex pensive and much more pleasant to handle, and we think will prove effective, especially if you use it on land where a green cro phas been ployed under dur ing the early fall or the previous Rum mer. We would suggest that you lime a limited acreage of your land. Re member that lime should only be applied once in three to five years, and that a minimum application for most soils would (probably ' be one ton per acre. It is important that the lime be ground fairly line, but still not so fine as to b e in the form of an impalpable powder which tends to make the lime form in little balls, and it is not so effective as When in a somewhat coarsefr condi tion. • * • M. O. J., Alley, Ga., writes: How many Irish potatpt® will it take fo plant an acre pf land putting the rows three feet apart, Will a top dressing composed of' nitrate of soda and muri ate of potash be advisable to use? My land is second year new ground, was in velvet beans last year. How much fertilizer would you advise, as I have not any manure? It will take from ten to fifteen bush els of Irish potatoes to pldnt an acre of land. The quantity required will de pend considerably on the distance apart of ^ planting, and also on the number of *eyes to the potato, and the size of the cuttings used. We think it well to have one to. two good eyes to the piece, and to cut the potatoes fairly small. Planting in rows three feet apart and about 12 to 18 inches in the drill is good practice. Potatoes will often come out when the tops have been cut hack by frost. Of course, the freezing off of the tops is a serious setback and lessens the vitality of me young plants materially, and if sea sonal conditions are unfavorable some of the plants may die. It is best, there fore, to avoid planting so early as to run the chances of the crop being cut back by a frost. The potato crop is best fertilized underneath the drill row though some top dressing or side ap plications may often be used to advan tage. The formula you propose to use would not be at all satisfactory for this crop on land of the type described in your letter. We would suggest that you usC from 600 to 600 pounds per acre of a mixture composed of 800 pounds of acid phosphate, 300 pounds ot nitrate of soda, 600 pounds of cot ton seed meal and 300 pounds of muri ate of potash. This mixture will anal yze about 7 per cent of phosphoric acid, 4.4 per cent of nitrogen and 8 per cent of potash. A part of the ni trate of soda in the aboxe mixture may be reserved and used as a side applica tion, say thirty days after the crop is up and well started. If some of the nitrate is reserved for use as a side application, the phosphoric acid iri the mixture may be increased by 100 to 2(ffi pounds. This formula we think will answer well on land of the type y*>u have in mind. f ~ Wood’s Seeds For The. Farm and Garden.
