IRON MCUNTA1N ROUTE.- BEST LINF, MEMPHIS TO Arkansas, Texas, Indian Territory, Oklahoma and the West.~ True South ern Route to Arizona, New Mexico Atlanta, April 2, 1900. 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 partment.

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 - —State Agricultural Department.

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: VELVET BEAN. COW PEA.

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. State Agricultural Department. QUESTION ANSWERED. 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 tion or Heart failure, etc. They used 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.

Trial package FRKK 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.

Alfthe blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches andrheu- 'matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble.
