It would ’hardly need | to be over four feet deep and ten to • twelve feet in length. It should be large enough to completely immerce the ! animals and necessitate their swimming j out. It should be sloping at both ends * and a cleated walk at the far end so the j animals can get out easily. This is the most satisfactory arrangement you can have for the dipping of hogs and if you expect to handle any considerable num bers. it will be a good investment. A galvanized dipping vat can be purchased for a few dollars and will be good for a number of years, or you can build a concrete vat at comparatively little ex pense which will last for an indefinite period of time. There is nothing better to feed to hogs than skim milk, and there is no reason why you should not sell the product of your cows in the form of butter to good advantage, as there is a ready sale for choice butter at from 35 to 40 cents a pound. We think one could make contracts on this basis for the year. There is no better general summer pasture for cows than a Bermuda sod. For winter feed you should have a silo. You can construct one of these at a rea sonable cost and grow’ corn and sorghum to place therein and it will afford you a fine substitute for grass during th# winter season. Of course, a variety of soiling crops may be produced success fully in Georgia. You may have a suc cession of green feed from early spring until late fall by planting spring oats and following with corn, early and late maturing varieties of cowpeas and soy beans and early and late maturing va rieties of sorghum. Y'ou will find pas ture and a silo the cheapest and most satisfactory method of supplying an abundance of green feed for your cows.

G., Monticello, Ga.. writes: I have just started to raise begs. I have fenced in about ten acres of woods, which have lots of acorns and nuts, and plenty of good water. 1 want your ad vise as lo feeding and breeding. I have a full blooded Berkshire boar. What would be the best cross for the best re sults? It is a fine thing to have a wooded range of the character described in your letter under fence. This should fur nish the open range for your hogs arid supply them wit.x an abundance of pure water. It is important to. see that the water supply is not contaminated from hogs which may be diseased and kept on the farms above your own. If the water raises directly out of a spring, you should take great care to keep the source of supply pure. The hogs will gather the acorns and other mast in tne fall of the year and be benefited to some extent, though acorns alone do not produce a satisfactory character of pork, and you must feed corn along with the same. We would suggest that you take an area of land, say not less than five acres, and di vide it into five equal areas. Let these all open into your wooded pasture. On the first of these we would sow rape as soon as practicable at the rate cf •j ,to 6 pounds per acre. Seed it in drills and * give light cultivation until it spreads across the rows. Next sow s ie spring oats, such as Burt .with a couple of pecks of Canada field peas. This will make the second earliest crop you can hope to secure for grazing. Sow the third area to an early variety of cowpeas, the fourth area to an early variet yof soy beans, and the fifth area to peanuts. Y’ou should devote a small area of land to corn, so you will have some grain to feel throughout the season, and especially to use in hard ening and finishing off your hogs in the fall. If grazed on peanuts they should be fed on .corn for two weeks thirty days. There is no way ty which you can produce porg so cheap y as through grazing crops. The areas of land ^with the wood lot mentioned wouiq be sufficient to maintain five to ten brood sows and .eir progeny. If you desire to keep a larger number of hogs, increase the areas in proportion. A pure br^d Berkshire boar may be u£ed with advantage for crossing on native sows. We would advise you nv all means to inoculate your hogs against cholera. * * * GROWING CORN AND COTTON ON “BOTTOMS.” J- M. D., Weelington, Ala., writes: I have eight acres of red stiff bottom land that was in corn last year. I want to plant four acres in cotton and four in corn, and want to make four bales of cotton and 150 to 200 bushels of corn. I turned under early the corn stalks and grass wit,li two good mules. Please advise me what fertilizer to use on each j crop for best results. <J/wU4 REMEDIES NEW FEATHER BEDS ONLY $7.40 ■3H' * or a limited time we offer full 36 lb New eather beds $7.40 each.

HALT SEED HALF S.1HT Since you turned your red clay land early * in the season with a two-horse turning plow, your next effort should be directed to supplying as much vege table matter as possible. Any yard manure or compost or woods litter which you can secure should be applied to the land. It you have an abundance of it, broadcast it; if only a limited amount use it under the drill row. On the four acres of corn use a formula containing about 9 per cent of phospho rous, 3 per cent of nitrogen and 4 per cent of potash. On the cotton use an 8-3-3. If there are evidences of shed ding or rusting increase the potash to 4 per cent, placing the fertilizer for four crops under the ^rill row if possi ble .about ten days before planting. Mix the fertilizer and any vegetable matter you can secure with the subsoil by means of a bull tongue running through the row once or twice. For cotton form a low bed, and for corn plant on the level. Use not less than 500 pounds of fertilizer per acre. On lands fairly well supplied with vegetable matter, we would put all the fertilizer in the drill at the time of planting. On soils which have been without rotation for many years, it is probably best to put only 300 pounds under the drill now, and use 200 pounds as a side application. If de sirable. later in the season you can use 100 pounds of nitrate of soda as a top dressing on corn and the same amount on cotton. The seasonal conditions and the relative development made by the crop and its appearance -will be deter mining factors in indicating to you the desirability of using nitrate as a top dressing. Remember that the selection of a variety of seed corn and cotton well adapted to your locality and the thor ough and persistent cultivation of the j crop are among the most essential ele ments in securing a good yield. UTILIZING OIL FIELDS. X. R. D., Albany. Ga., writes: 1 would appreciate your opinion as to whether it would be better to plant corn on land that had laid out for five or six years or on land that has been amount of fertilizer? Also what varie ties of corn would you suggest for this section? fertilizer would you suggest? The stalks grew very rank on this land. T here is not much danger of the or dinary carriers of phosphorus and pot ash being leached out of the soil before crops have a chance to utilize themj There is a good deal of danger, how ever. that nitrogen may be lost, and ni trogen. as you no doubt know, is the expensive element i n a fertilizer for the farmer to purchase. Some carriers of nitrogen become much more quickly available in the soil than others. For- instance, nitrae of soda is immediately available, whereas, cotton seed meal, tankage, blood and other organic ma terials become less slowly Available. It is best, therefore, in a fertilizer to de rive a part of the nitrogen from or ganic and a part from inorganic sources. On the very rich bottom land we think about an 8-3-4 would answer very well for corn: on uplands we would use a 10-3-4. For cotton on thin lands we would use a 9-3-4 and on fairly rich soil an 8-3-3. If there Is a tendency for cotton to rust on your land use a little more potash than has been sug gested. If your land is very sandy we think you could increase the potash all around about 1 per cent. We believe an application of 500 pounds per acre *vill generally prove profitable o n these crops. On soils on which there is only a very moderate amount of vegetable matter and which have been run in hoed crops for a long series of years, we would put about 800 pounds under the drill row, and use 200 pounds as a side application. On rich bottom lands we would be disposed to put all the fer tilizer under the drill row at the time of planting the crop. You understand by putting the fertilizer down at one application you save considerably on the labor bill. You are right in thinking it desirable to use a 14-8 acid in place of a 7-4. All high grade concentrated goods are gen erally cheaper and more desirable than the lower grades, if the farmer would simply take his pencil and figure out the relative cost of freight and hand ling, he will find that the high grade goods are in all instances cheaper w an the low grade. Break the land at least six or ten inches deep and prepare a good seed bed. Remember this is a very impor tant matter in securing a yield of eith er corn or cotton. Your bottom lands are probably deficient in phosphorus. We would suggest in growing cotton on these areas in future that you in crease the phosphorus supply very con siderably. A mixture containing 900 pounds of acid phosphate 16 per cent available, 975 pounds of high grade cot ton seed me/al and 125 pounds of muri ate of potash will give you a formula quite closely approximating an 8-3-4. Using this as the basis you can sub stitute a part of the cotton seed meal for nitrate of soda by increasing the supply of acid phosphate annd potash, and raise or lower the percenatge com position as you see proper. * * * CULTIVATING DWARF ESSEX RAPE. W. H. H., McRae, Ga., writes: I want some information on the culture of Dwarf Essex rape. I ’have been told it is fine for hogs and cows and poultry. Can a person sow it in drills in the spring and cut for all kinds of stock? What will kill lice on hogs? Do you think a dipping vat would be a profit able investment? I am considering the idea of making about ten milk cows raise the hogs for me and wish to have good pasture for both; feed the skim milk to the hpgs and sell the butter. What do you think of this plan? FERTILIZER FACTS No. 2 IT IS UP TO YOU - The time to make money on your crop is when you are producing it. \ The way to make money on your crop is to keep down the costs. The means by which you can keep down the costs are. 1st; deep plowing and thorough cultivation, 2nd: a proper fertilization, by which an increased yield per acre will be obtained. For several years now, the price of cotton has been good. Just how much each planter made or lost de pends on his cost of producing a bale of cotton. The South has no monopoly in producing cotton. Forty per cent of the world’s supply is produced abroad. The increased acreage being planted abroad, annually, is more than the increase in the South. England is now preparing to spend $15,- 000,000 to aid and assist cotton growing in the Su dan. The only way the South can keep ahead is by keeping the cost of production lower here than abroad; BY SECURING THE MAXIMUM YIELD AT THE MINIMUM COST. In Egypt, blessed by a nat ural fertilizer, the production per acre is increasing. In this country it is decreasing. Farm labor is a great factor in keeping the pro duction down and the cost up. The only solution is to secure a greater yield per acre, on fewer acres, by the use of carefully chosen fertilizer, to fit the needs of the land, and by the intelligent cultivation of the reduced acreage. acre, and only raises one bale to three acres is los ing money. At a bale to the acre his cost would be about five cents per pound. At a bale to three acres his cost would not be less than nine cents per pound, and he has undoubtedly lost the profit repre sented by the difference between these costs. It has been 'demonstrated that the use of fertilizer is an investment and not an expense. It not only pays for Itself, but in addition, pays a handsome profit on the investment. It costs no more to cultivate an acre with 200 pounds of fertilizer on it that produces one-third of a bale of cotton, than to cultivate an acre with 600 pounds of fertilizer on it, which produces a bale to the acre. With the extra expense for 400 pounds of fertilizer, the cost of production is reduced from nine cents to five cents per pound. In addition to his cotton he should plant an acreage in food crops that will enable him to live at home and by so doing keep at home the millions of dollars that annually have been going out of the State. Plow deep and get your land in condition to hold moisture. Prepare it carefully and get it in fine tilth to receive your crop. The planter who can tell his banker or supply man that he produces a bale to an acre has three times the credit rating of the one-third-of-a-bale-to-the-acre- man. Your profits begin with your planting, so IT IS UP TO YOU. A farmer who can raise one bale of cotton to the Write for Bulletin, sent free on request. SOIL IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE Southern Fertilizer Association, Atlanta, Ga. 'i is Rape is a very good grazing crop for hogs, but not very well adapted for cat tle, and it would hardly be a profitable crop to grow with the idea for cutting for forage and hauling off the land to feed to stock. It may be grazed to some extent by cattle if the proper pre cautions are taken to prevent them from gorging themselves and bloating. Rape should be sown as early as possible, any time in the latter part of February or earlier in this section, though it may be sown as late as the first of April. The early seeding of the crop gives the best results. The -.only type to eelect for seed is the Dwarf Essex rape. Sow , in drills twenty-four to thirty inches apart, using from three to five pounds of seed per acre. Rape may also be mixed at the rate of six to eight punds with spring oats such as Burt and some broadcast or .drilled in with a grain drill. You can secure nothing from spring seeding for grazing down by hogs which will come earlier than rape. The best way to kill lice on hogs is I*®* ® Finish This Story A WORKMAN in an I H C wagon factory was explaining the various stages of wagon construction to an interested visitor. He picked up two pieces of long leaf yellow pine, which to all appearances were sawed from the same board, and asked the visitor to notice the difference in the weight of the two pieces. The lighter piece, he explained, was kiln-dried. The heavier piece was air- dried and more thoroughly seasoned. It had retained the resinous sap which adds strength and toughness, while in the kiln-dried piece of lumber this sap had been drawn out by the too rapid application of heat. Every Stick of Lumber Used in IHC Wagons Is Carefully Selected, Air-Dried Stock Here was something to think about. The visitor asked for a test as to the relative strength of the two pieces of wood. The air-dried piece held up under nearly double the weight under which the kiln-dried piece of lumber broke. The workman explained how the comparative life of air-dried and kiln-dried lumber has about as great a difference. To the eye there was no difference between / * ' ' these two pieces of lumber, but when put to the test there was a vast difference. So it is throughout the construc tion of I H C wagons—Weber, Columbut, New Betten dorf, Steel King. They are built for real strength, light draft, and satisfactory service. After seeing the care used in the construction of every part of an IHC wagon, the visitor asked: “Why don’t you let people know of the great care used in selecting material and in constructing IHC wagons?’’ This is what we have been trying to do, but we can not tell it all in one short advertisement. Weber and Columbus wagons have wood gears. Steel King and New Bettendorf have steel gears. IHC local dealers handle the wagons best suited to your work.

Me O* SEITZ, 1D70 CHICAGO* There is no reason why corn should not be cultivated with satisfaction on I land that has lain out for several years, j provided it is properly prepared before | planting is undertaken. The land should be broken thoroughly, and if seasonal conditions become favorable probably subsoiling it would be ad- advantageous. It is doubtful, however, i whether the lower areas of the soil will dry out sufficiently to permit of subsoiling without danger of puddling from this date forward. If there is a. growth of litter and trash on the land cover it into the soil by using a disk or other large type of turning ploy. Then prepare a seed bed by thorough breaking of the surface soil. We think you will find it profitable to use from 400 to 600 pounds of fertilizer under the drill row for corn. You do not say what type of land you have so we can not suggest a formula to meet your conditions. On sandy land we would use a higher grade material than on clay land. In our experience in fertil izing corn we have found it profitable to use a fair amount of nitrogen. The prolific varieties such as Whatley’s Cockes, Marlboro and Hastings, have giveh us the best results on upland soils, and we think they can be recom mended with safety for all soils of this type i n Georgia. * * * EFFICIENCY OF VARIOUS FERTIL IZERS. J. L. D., Donalsonville, Ga.. writes: J would like to know a good fertilizer for corn and cotton. I have been told that some ingredients will disappear from the land sooner than others. W r ould it not be economy to use a 14-S acid and potash in place of a 7-4 and save freight? I have some rich bottom land that was in cotton last year that I want to put in corn next year.
