e cotton acreage for Georgia will
9 vlrlUa Hy determined daring this
mont and the present price of this
b P e makes the temptation very strong
° P aut too much cotton to the neglect
o other crops. We warn the farmers
to pause and consider carefully whether
t e p.ans formed and which, they are
oo.v about to execute, provide fully for
•H l ^ e supplies needed on the farm for
Doth man and beast. When this pro-
vis.on is made, let the farmer plant as
much cotton as he can properly culti
vate and gather and- he is bound to
prosper, the degree of prosperity de
fending oniy upon the price of the sta
ple. Let us get bick to the good old
days \vheu the farm was a little world
within itself, making almost everything
needed by the family. Our older read
ers can remember the .farmers were the
lords of the land and the money lend
ers of the conntry. Of recent years the
Eoene has shifted and now the merchant
reigns supreme in the towns, while
the farmer borrows and the land mourns
weighed down with mortgage. The
“all cotton plan” may not be responsi
ble for the depressed condition of the
cotton growing states, but much is
chargeable to this cause. The trouble
is not so much that we have too much
cotton but too few supplies.
Onr farmers got into the habit of pro
ducing all cotton to the detriment of
food crops immediately after the “war
between the states,” when there was an
exorbitant demand for the fleecy staple
on account of said war, and conse
quently prices reached a “boom” value.
Food crops, such as wheat, corn, oats,
eta, were comparatively low. As soon
as the demand wa3 lessened the prices
began to drop. It was difficult to go
back to the old plans and the habit be
came fixed, until we have been forced
by low prices and almost bankruptcy
to consider onr condition, and form res
olutions of retrenchment. Let ns not
lose what we have gained, bnt let 1900
be a memorable year because of tho
great supply of “bog and hominy.”
For the past two years we have made
much progress along these lines. More
wheat and grain and grasses generally
were Bown than for years past. More cat
tle and better cattle are being kept and
raised by the farmer. Let the good
work go on. Cotton mills are springing
up like magic all over Georgia. The
lnmbor and turpentine industries are,
as well as the iron and gold ore, all do
ing well. There is and will be a great
demand for grains and grasses, cattle,
hogs, poultry, butter and eggs. This
will bring into circulation more money
to buy more cotton goods than for
years, hence we believe that cotton will
be a good price next falL
Concerning the planting of cotton we
advise that just as soon as the ground
has been prepared and all danger of frost
is over, plant your cotton seed. The early
plants, as a gederal thing, produce the
best fruit. Don’t wait until the ground
becomes too dry to produce germination
of the seed. Run a harrow over the
beds, when they are not fresh, so as to
freshen the surface. Yon cai do this
with but little loss of time if you will
arrrnge a small plow immediately be
hind tho teeth of the harrow so as to
open a farrow for the planter, or use
the planter with an opener. The har-
•Stock Raising.
Question.—Have read your article on
keeping more stock on oar farms. How
can I best improve tne breed with ieast
cost?
-Answer —Unquestionably the most
profitable coarse for the general farmer
to pursue in improving the quality of
his live stock, is first to bay first-class
thoroughbred males. The calve3 got
by a thoroughbred ball of any of the
best breeds, one of a mixed average lot
of cows, will possess much of the thor
oughbred sires, and the females of these
grades again bred to a thoroughbred
will give animals equal, to the average
thoroughbred for ail practical purposes
except that of procreation. The same
is true of s wine, sheep, poultry and all
kinds of farm stock. Get, then, the
purest lineage males and carefully select
the best of the female produce for
breeders and in a few years you have
ingrafted all the excallencies of the
thoroughbred stock upon your flocks
and herds.
If you are not able to invest in a thor
oughbred alone, then get one or a half
dozen of yoar neighbors and together
bny the maie Georgia i+ far behind
some of oar sister states in -ilia quality
of the live scoot Es totally is this
true as to “fcejf cat.-e.” The Snort
Horn is one of the b3sc brae is for gen
eral farmers. Tnis breed will give yon
a steer at three years old tint will
weigh from 1500 to 1S00 pounds, and a
cow that wiii give twro to four gallon*
of milk under proper treatment.
The very best breads will not show
any marked superiority over onr native
stock, if left alone to shift for itself in
the lands . of the average farmer, but
the improved breeds do furnish the
means by which more pounds of beef
or butter, mutton or pork, and of a bet
ter quality, than can be produced by a
given quantity of food, than from unim
proved stock.—State Agricultural De

Corn Smut.
Question.—Will yon please inform
me through The Cultivator whether or
not there is a remedy for smnt or plast
in corn, and if so, what is it?
Answer.—This smut of corn is wide
spread, and may be fonad wherever
corn is cultivated, bnt fortunately it
rarely causes any loss. It is a fnngns
disease which causes large deformations
on the stems, leaves, leag-shatters and
the male and female flowers. These
whitish gall-like swellings contain
masses of gelatinous mycelium, whioh
produce millions of dark brown infect
ing spores. When mature the spores
rnptnre the enclosing saok and float
away on the air. These spores may
produce infection on any immature
part of the host plant. The most dam
age is usually done to the ear, whioh is
frequently converted into a mass of my
celium and. spores. Ho satisfactory
remedy is yet kaown, and preventive
measures have not proven altogether
successful 1c may be partially con
trolled by the early removal of all smut
galls. These should bs cut away aud
burned as soon as they appear. Is has
been suggested that the capper sulphate
treatment for wheat smut would also
apply to corn smut, bnt this is some
what doubtful, smee the iufectiou does
not necessarily come from tne spores
that adhere to tin seed com. This
treatment oousists in immersing the
seed for about 12 hours in a soiution
made by dissolving 1 pound of crushed
copper sulphate’iu 24 gallons.of water.
The seed is thou removed from the coo
per sulphate soluil m aud immersed for
about 10 minutes iu lime water (1 pound
of fresh lima slacked iu 8 gaiiuns of
water). This is au excellent preven
tion for stink smut of whoat, and might
be of soma value against corn smut -

Information In Regard to a Valuable
Forage Plant.
Question. —Piease give me some in
formation about the velvet bean.
Answer.—We have bad no personal
experience with what is known as tne
velvet bean, and what we shall write
will necessarily be taken from others
who have had such experience.
Mr. A. P. Newheart of Oconee, Fla.
writes that the pea or velvet bean has
been plau el there for twenty years as
coverings for trellises and unsightly
places. The abundance of vine and
foliage so completely covering the
ground after the frost,. suggested the
idea of planting the beau in his orchard
grove as a manure instead of buying
commercial guanos. The result was so
satisfactory that he was iadnoed to ex
tend his experiment to other groves.
He was delighted with the showing.
His groves showed np well with those
on which he used fertilizers.
The beau should be planted in April
or May, iu middle Georgia, or about the
same time you plant field peas. Plant
as yon plant the field psas; say from
three to five beans in a place, from 12 to
14 inches apart in three feet rows.
When the bean begins to rnn, use the
plow or cultivator; one or two plowings
will be sufficient The average yield
per acre is from 15 to 26 bushels of the
beans. The vines, whicli are abundant,
can be used as a forage for cattle or
horses, or they can be left on the land
to be turned under in the fall, which is
said to be a very fiae renovator of poor
exhausted lands, even better than the
pea vine.
Prof. A. A. Persons, Director of the
Florida Experimental Station, gives the
following comparative analysis of the
velvet bean and cow pea:

Protein 21.34 14 30
Fat ...........i 7.14 '.7 2!60
Fiber .....8.44 ......29.00
Nitrogen 60.75 43.60
This comparatively new plant may
prove to be of great value as a forage
crop, live stoce feed upon it with great
relish where it has been grown. How
ever, any forage stuff which runs so
high in nitrogen as the velvet bean,
should be fed with some coarse food,
such as to-n, fodder or corn stalk
shreds If Mr. Newheart’s plan, of
plan tii- his bean in orchards for
shade match and fertilization, is a
success i i Florid-t, why would not this
beau be a ^access’ planted between the
rows of trees iu the frnit orchards
in Middle and South Georgia?
The velvet beans can be bought from
Mr. A P. Stewart, Oconee, Fla, at
$1.60 per bushel, f. o. b.

Yes, August Flower still has the larg
est sale of any medicine in the civiiized
world. Your mothers and grandmoth
ers never thought of using anything
else for Indigestion or Biliousness.
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostra

August Flower to clean bnt the system
and stop fermentation of undigested
food, regulate the action of the liver,
stimulate the nervous and organic ac
tion of the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bad with
headaches and other aches. You only

Dear Sir—We have yonr favor ask
ing information iu regard to broorn-
corn, and we reply as follows:
This plant is a variety of “sorghum”
and a native of the East Indies. The
introduction of this plant is attributed
to Dr. Franklin, who, finding a seed on
a whisk-broom that had boen imported,
planted it, and from this originated the
culture of “broom corn” in the United
States. The average product of brush
per acre is about 500 pounds. There has
been produced from very fine soii and
locality as high as 1,000 poamis per
acre. As there seems to be no substi
tute for broom-corn "brush, there is
always a demand for ir, and it is a crop !
that can be easily cultivated.. It. is a
profitable one for the farmers to raise
in those sections to which it is well
adapted.
The seed makes a very good feed for
horses when mixed with oats. It is
also a fine food for poultry, after, the
chicks are two or three weeks old, when
fed with other food. When ground
with onr common Indian corn in pro
portion to three bushels of broom-corn
to one of Indian corn, it makes good
food for cattle, hogs or sheep.
Generally speaking, broom-corn grows
best where our native com grows best,
and the preparation of the land is simi
lar to that for corn. Good river or
branch bottom land is best suited to this
plant; bnt any good land, well drained,
will, with barnyard manure or a good
fertilizer, make a good yield. The bet
ter plan is to broadcast the manure,
plow and harrow the same so as to pul
verize the soil thoronghiy. Plant in the
drills or in hills.
The rows may be from three to four
feet, according to the variety to be
grown; the dwarf varieties in three-feet
rows and the larger varieties in four-
feet rows. The hills may be two or
three "feet apart. When the seed are
sound and well ripened two quarts will
be sufficient to plant one acre. Be sure
to get good seed. Yon can use the seed<
drills that will plant small seed, or
only a few acres are to be planted, yon
can plant with the hand. The cultiva
tion is similar to that of corn, only yon
have to use more care and skill because
of the smallness of the plant. Thinning
should be done when the plants are two
or three inches high, leaving five or six
in the hill, or if drilled, the stalks
should be left three or four inches apart.
The time of harvesting will depend
upon the use to be made of the crop.
When yon plant only for the broom
corn brush, yon may cut much earlier
than when the seed is one of the objects
sought. When the blossoms begin
fall,-yon may begin yonr harvesting,
that is, if the brush is the object sought.
The quality of the brush is.better when
cut on the green order, for the reason
that it makes the straw tough and gives
it a live color, and accordingly com
mands a better price in the market.
Before harvesting it is customary to
break down the stalks, turning down
the tops of the stalks of two rows to
wards each other, thus leaving a vacant
place for the laborer to work in cutting.
The stalks are broken about three feet
above the ground, and when the stalks
of two rows are turned towards each
other, the stalks of one row will cross
those of the other in such a.manner as
the tops will project about a foot on
each side.
Each two rows arc then broken in
the same way until the crop has been
finished. This will leave a space
through which the harvester can pass
in cutting ih9 brush, which is usually
done immediately after the crop is
broken. * The dwarf varieties do not re
quire the breaking process, as the stalk
is low and the bnnch is not so long and
heavy. Cnt the brush so as to leave
only b or 10 inches of the stalk below it
and no leaves. These should be laid in
small bundles as cut and then gathered
np and placed under shelter. It lc best
not to cure it in the snn. Do not allow
any rain to fall on the brush after cut
ting. Cure in the shade, under shelter
if possible When extensive crops are
grown special barns are built for this
purpose, with extensive shelving, so
that the air can pass through the brush,
that it may not mold or be damaged.
Where-the brash is harvested green the
seed is generally separated from it be
fore curing. This is d me with a hand
machine made for the purpose. It can
also be done by the grain threshing ma
chine by holding the head to the cylin
der and not permitting the brush to be
drawn in. The broom corn stalk, when
cut at the proper time, makes a fairly
good coarse forage and compares favor
ably with corn stalk forage.
In preparing the broom corn brush for
market, it can either be baled in the com
mon cotton press or in a press f or baling
hay. When the brush is baled in this
way it can be much more easily han
dled and marketed. The prices for
same range from 5 cents to 9 cents per
pound, according to quality.
Yours very.truly,

Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
Alfthe blood in your body passes through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
The kidneys are your

If they are sick or out

Pains, aches andrheu-

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is

It used to be considered that only urinary
