May is notoriously t he month in which the work of cultivating the general crops begins, grass and weeds, as well as the crops, will now spring up and grow, and farm work must be rapid and frequent to destroy the former and stimulate the latter. To this end we would advise energy and skill in the cultivation for the next 30 days if you would manage your crop with ease and satisfaction. In Middle and North Georgia a large part of the cotton area is yet to be planted. This was caused by the late spring and too much rain in the latter part of March and April. This can be largely remedied by putting forth our best efforts in the field and judicious use of wide sweeps and cultivators in the cultivation of cotton and corn. If your land has been properly prepared before planting, yon can use these wide stretching implements to great advan tage, the object being to break the crust and stir the surface to the depth'of 1 or 2 inches. In this way you can run over your crops every 10 or 12 days so that by July 1 the fields of the energetic and faithful farmer will show little signs of the late planting. Watch the May grass and smother mid stifle it at birth or eveu before it peeps through the surface of the earth. Continue this process until June 1 and you will be master of the situation. If you let the May grass get the start on you, lay down -the harrows and culti vators at once and take up your sweeps or shovels; for the May grass must be conquered. Do as -much of your work as possible with the horse and plow; fo» ‘the man with the hoe” is a very costly luxury, frequently doing as much harm as good in the cotton field with a hoe. Follow the plow at intervals of six or seven days, that he may not uncover the grass so well covered by the plow. ‘Blocking” out of cotton is labor lost. Use your harrow until cotton is ready, then cut to a stand at once and lay aside the hoe as far as possible, as it is too ex pensive. Cultivate your cotfcou fre quently while young that it may be pushed rapidly beyond the stage of Sore Shins” and darning insects. After this period so work yonr cotton crop as to keep it growing steadily, but not too fast. During ; tlie next three months we may expect dry weather and the wise farmer i -y ref ore will do his best to keep the re served moisture in the soil. To accom plish this end, we advise flat culture. High beds increase surface exposure and {hereby increase evaporation. ' We often damage plants by throwing or piling too much dirt around them. Let the sweeps then be set flat and keep them so. An other means of preserving moisture is frequent and shallow cultivation of the surface to prevent the formation of a crust. This acts as mulch and keeps the soil beneath moist. But after all that may be said, each individual farmer must determine, with all the lights before him, that which is wisest and best to do for himself. He must consult his own surroundings and profit as best he may by his past experi- iarmer to give such an amount of manu- rial qualities and in such qnauties as will produce the highest- results. When this is done uature asserts itself aud re turns to the giver tenfold. We also advise, that German millet can be sown broadcast or in drills for an early hay crop, or if preferable you can sow the “speckled” (or what is com monly known as the “whippoorwill”) pea to a great advantage. However, the last two named plants can only be cut once. They should l>e allowed to grow until the heads of the millet aud the pods of the pea begin to ripen, theu cut them and cure for hay. All of these plants will give good re sults if planted upon good land, prop erly manured, in proportion to the fer tility and preparation of the same. Of course meager manuring, bad prepara tion and poor land gives poor results and dissatisfaction. / 0. B. Stevens, Commissioner. SESAME CULTURE IN SOUTH. the Standard Office.

On account of" the drouth that was prevalent during last year, which pre vented in jome sections of Georgia the production of grain and forage crops, and the extreme cold aud wet spring during this year, that prevented the solving of spring oats for feed, we advise those who could not sow down then- lands and consequently would have to purchase hay or other rough food for their stock and cattle, that it is not too late to prepare their land for corn. A splendid crop of com can be produced on upland planted as late as May 15, aud bottomland as late as June 15. Of course these lands should be well pre pared and manured, to insure a good re turn for the labor expended. We ad vise the use of the earlier varieties of corn for field purposes, such as - Dent’s Early White,” or “Dent’s Golden Pro lific,” “Blount’s Prolific,” or such other seed of early field com, as may be best suited for tho varioas sections of our state. However, if yon desire green forage for the mouths of June, July aud Au gust it will be necessary to plant some succulent plant that will produce nutri ment in its green state for three months. To do this, on small plats of land aud in order that you can cut it three or four times, then you mast plant such crops as will succor (that is, put forth* new shoots after being cut.) The best vari eties are known as the “cattail” millet, sorghum aud Kafir com. These differ ent forage plants can be raised to a great advantage both as green food and also as forage for the winter purposes. The land should be well broken and sub soiled aud highly manured in order to procure the best results. The seed should he sown in 3-foot drills and cultivated rapidly. The mode of cultivation should he the same as that of com, using shal low plows in order to give the plant the benefit of the feed roots that are more or less near the surface of the earth. To cut these roots only retards the growth and the gathering in of the elements of plant food which are contained in the soil hy nature and artificial manuring, let it be understood that all succulent plants are very .exhaustive to the land, as they are producers of fat aud -muscle i of animal life aud hence require from I ! rhe land elements of plant food to de velo? such nutrition as will produce the best results iu forming these qualities of animal life. It therefore behooves the New and Lucrative Crop for Planters. My attention has recently been drawn by a gentleman of this city to the plant known as the sesame or benne plant. I have been endeavoring to learn all about it that I conld in a limited space of time, and take this opportunity of giving those interested such results as I have been able to obtaiu. I quote such facts as I have been able to find iu various works of reference. The plant is valuable for its leaves aud its seed, particularly the latter. The seed are small, but full of an excellent oil, known variously by the names of oil of sesame or oil of benne or giugelly or teel, principally, however, hy the name of oil of sesame. The plant is grown largely in India for the sake of its oil, which is pressed from the seed. The oil is used largely for the same purposes as olive oil, aud though not so widely knowu by name, is used for the same purposes as olive oil, for cooking, for eating and for pharmaceutical prepara tions. The plant does not flourish in Europe, hut it is commercially import ant there, from one hundred to one hun dred and seventy-five million pounds of the seed are imported annually into France. The seed are sweet aud oleag inous, the oil pressed from them is bland and pleasant to the taste, aud is far su perior to all other oils in the length of time it will keep sweet and pure, being rarely ever known, to turn rancid, being thus especially fitted for use in medicine and as an article of food. Iu Egypt the seed are eaten strewn on cakes aud also used in confectionery. The cake from which the oil has been pressed, mixed with houey aud citron, is esteemed as an oriental luxury. The oil is also much used by the women of some eastern countries as a cosmetic. Tho leaves abound iu a gummy substance which they readily yield to water, making a rich, blaud mucilage, which is used by the negroes of the southern portion of the United States, who grow it in small patches, us a demulcent medicinal drink, the leaves and seeds being similarly used by the natives of India for medic inal purposes. The-United States De partment of Agriculture writes me as fol lows regarding the plant: “This plant is of'very easy cultivation in the warm sections of the United States. It does not succeed well north of Virginia. Where it is cultivated at all, the methods are much the same as for growing pea nuts. The seeds are planted in warm soil of medium texture and fertility, and the plants kept free from weeds through out the summer. Even when left to take care of itself in fence-rows or other out of the way places, us is the common practice among the colored people who grow it, it yields fairly well.” Nowhere is a new and valuable plant, the growth of which in the south is no experiment, it having been grown here for a number of years ir. a shiftless, careless way by a few darkeys. If intel ligent, wide-awake farmers will take it up, it may become a new source of wealth to them aud their .section. The oil is worth in Atlanta about 70 cents a gallon, aud the gentleman who first brought the matter to my attention, hut who does not care to have his name given, would he willing to pay that price for about 0,000 gallons of the oil per annum. With the production the demand would grow, aud it is quite probable that those who are enterprising enough to take it up at once, would find a good demand for the first year’s crop for planting purposes.

[ For the past several years thus disease, popularly known as “leaf curl,” and technically knowu as exoascus'deform ans, has beeu quite prevalent in the peach orchards of north Georgia. It is particularly bad this season, and in some localities threaten the partial destruction of the present fruit crop. The symptoms of the disease are very characteristic aud any ordiuary observer can readily detect it. The disease most commonly develops iu the leaves, but it also attacks the tissues of the twigs. The mycelial growth of the fungus in the leaf increases the size and number of the cells, causing the formation of a se ries of irregular transverse folds. The leaf is also greatly enlarged, both trans versely and longitudinally; and one side is usually strongly convexed, so mucli so that frequently the bulging along the midrib pushes the margins of the leaf toward each other on the other side, giv ing it an inflated appearance. The tis sues of the distorted parts thicken and the leaf looses its green color, changing to pale, with yellowish tints. The disease appears in early spring as soon as the leaves are ont aud develops very rapidly. The function of the leaves (the breathing apparatus of the tree) is entirely destroyed by this fnngus, hence the vigor of the tree and the develop ment of the fruit are materially im paired, frequently causing the fruit to shed and decreasing the longevity of the tree. All affected leaves are shed in the early part of the summer, and if the trees are well cultivated aud fertilized a new set of healthy leaves will come out, and nothing more will .be seen of the, disease until the following spring. The mycelium or vegetative part of this fungus is pereuuial aud passes the late summer, autumn and winter in the tissues of the leaf and buds, growing ont with the developing leaf iu the fol- ing spring. REMEDY. Until recently very little was known concerning the treatment of the leaf- curl. On Jan. 16 of this yea;, the writer begau a series of experiments iu the or chard of Judge George F. Gober at Ma rietta, Ga., looking to the control of this disease, both as to the substance to be used aud the time of applying it. The results of these experiments are all that could be desired. While the work is uot yet completed sufficient results have been obtained to show that the disease can he easily and cheaply controlled. The plan of the experiment is given iu brief below, but full details aud ex planation cannot be gone into in this ar ticle. Several thousand trees were in cluded in the experiineut aud each row represents from 50 to 300 trees. The or chard is seven years old aud in good condition, except that the trees had been badly affected with leaf-curl for the past two years. PLAN OF EXPERIMENT. Row 1—On Jan. 1(1 sprayed with blue- stone at the rate of 2 pounds dissolved in 50 gallons of water. Nothing more was done to this row. Result—Examined on April 19—trees in fruit aud nearly fall leaf; 40 per cent of the leaves affected with leaf curl. Re sult unsatisfactory. Row 2—On Jail. 10 sprayed with bine- stone as in row 1, aud a second applica tion of the same substance was made on March 12, tliat is, ju.-t before the tree came into blossom. Result—Examined April 19—iu fruit and nearly full leaf; 11 ’-.per cent of the leases affected with leaf enri. Better than No. 1, hat still unsatisfactory. Row 3—The same as No. 2 aud the same result up to April 19. The experi ment is continued by the application of weak Bordeaux (3 pounds Milestone, 6 pounds fresh lime aud 50 gallons water) on April 24, when the trees were in fruit and nearly fnlUeaf. Final results cannot be determined yet. Row 4—The same as No. 3, with an ad ditional application of weak Bordeaux to be made later. . Row 5—Check. This row was left un treated, with which to compare results of treated trees. Result—Examined on April 19, in fruit and nearly full leaf. Eighty per cent ol the leaves are affected with leiif-cnrl. The trees look sickly and the leaves have a pale, yellowish appearance. Row li—On Jan. 16 sprayed with strong Bordeaux (6 ponuds bluestone, 0 pounds lime to 50 gallons of water.) Nothing more was done to this row. Result—Examined April 19, trees iu 'fruit and nearly full leaf. Seventeen per cent of leaves affected. Result, uot satisfactory, hat the disease was checked considerably. Row 7—On Jan. 16 sprayed with strong Bordeaux (6—(1—50) and repeated the application of the same mixture on March 12, just before the trees came into bloom. Result, examined April 19, trees in fruit aud nearly full leaf. Almost per fect, less than 1 per cent of leaves af fected with leaf-curl. Row 8—Same as No. 7 and -result tho same up to April 19; with a third appli cation of weak Bordeaux, (3—6—50) on April 21. Row 9—Same as No. 8, with a fourth application to be made later. Row 10—On January 16 sprayed with | caustic potash—8 pounds to 40 gallons ! of water. Result—April 19, 50 per cent of tho leaves affected with leaf-curl. Uusatis- - No Danger!

Result—Unsatisfactory, 50 per qgut of leaves affected with leaf-curi. Row 12—On Marcli 12, just before trees came into bloom sprayed With strong Bordeaux (6 pounds bluestone, 6 pounds lime to 50 gaUons water.) only one application was made. Resnlt—Examined on April 19, when leaves were nearly out in full aud a good crop of fruit on the trees. The resnlt is almost perfect prevention of leaf-curl. Only an occasional leaf can be fonnd diseased. Other experiments were made but it is not necessary for the object of this paper to give them here. CONCLUSION. The resnlt of experiments Nos. 7, 8, 9 and 12 are practically the same, bnt it is noted that in case of No. 12 only one application is made aud that tbis applica- tion is sufficient to prevent the leaf-curl. Two points are determined: I. That Bor deaux made by the formula of 6 pounds of bluestone aud 6 pounds of fresh lime to 50 gallons water is tho substance to use. 2. That iu the spring of the year, just before the buds burst into bloom, is the time to make the application. In the face of these resnlts there is no ex cuse for a peach grower to allow his trees to become seriously infected with leaf-cnrl. Other experiments are being conduct ed to determine whether the leaf-curl can bo cheeked after the leaves come ont aud the disease sets iu. It is probable that weak Bordeaux (3—6—50; will check it to some extent, even after it appears. In ease the trees are badly affected aud no treatment has been applied, I would recommend that, when the'dis eased leaves begin to .drop, the orchard should he highly fertilized with nitrogen ous manures (which should not be ex tensively used on bearing trees under ordinary conditions), and thoroughly, cultivated, iu order to push out a new set of leaves to take the place of the dis eased ones and mature the crop of fruit. For this purpose nitrate of soda is the best fertilizer to use. It acts very quickly and will soon produce a new crop of leaves, which will be sufficient to mature the crop of fruit. It should be scattered around the tree from the trunk ont as far as the branches reach. It should then be cultivated iu. The orchard should be cultivated even- week or ton days until the entire fruit crop can be saved aud the trees will not suffer material injury from the effects of the disease.—State Agricultural Department.
