most delightful occasion though
the rain kept some away.
In a small section around Cass

rain since the crops were planted,
and the ground Is too dry now for
plowing, but the corn and cotton
is looking well and will make a
good yield.
The New York Cotton Exchange
has declared that sugar bag clojth,
which can be bought, two.pounds
to the yard at cents a yard, is ac
ceptable bagging to that exchange,
and that cotton packed in it is all
right. This, with the reduction of
cotton ties to about 80c. a bundle
by the new tariff bill will help the
cotton farmers out no little this
fail.
The reunion of Philips and Cobbs
Legions at Kennesaw last Thurs
day and Friday was a great oc
casion. The old soldiers intended
ito camp, but a severe storm came
up about night and drove them to
shelter. The good people of Ken
nesaw cared for them royally. The
next reunion will be held at Mad

lIR.NESOnTS LETTER
The Commissioner of Agricult
ure to the Georgia Farmers.
THE MONTH OF JULY REVIEWED.
With the Effects of a Late Spring and the
Recent Drouth to Overcome, the Farm
ers Have Made a Splendid Showing, und
Crop Prospects Are Bright, Beyond the
Most Sanguine Expectations
Department of Agriculture,
Atlanta, Aug. 1, 1894.
The long deferred rains, which came
in June and July, at first confined to
favored localities, finally became gen
eral, and though in the southern part of
the state, the corn was too far advanced
to be materially benefitted, in the more
northern section the marvelous recupera
tion of the crop is almost beyond belief.
In that locality, plants which were
twisted and almost lifeless, have taken
on anew growth, and the prospect for
a fine yield is now most encouraging.
The advanced plantings in the southern
part of the state suffered in a greater
degree because the drouth came just at
the critical period of tasseling and ear
ing, and was so long continued that the
stunted ears, or rather “nubbins,” were
formed before the reviving rains de
scended to fill them with plump, healthy
grains.
With cotton, exactly the opposite con
ditions exist. In southern Georgia this
crop suffered comparatively little from
the April and May cold snaps, and
the drouth of May and June found it in
good growing condition, which it has
been able to maintain even during the
dry weather. But in northern Georgia,
from frost and continued chilly weather,
succeeded by parching winds and a
drouth, in some localities lasting over
two months, the prospect seemed almost
hopeless. In many fields the little stalks
had lost every leaf, only the tender bud
at the top holding out hope against an
utter destruction of the crop. But the life
giving moisture has infused new strength
the drooping plants, and fields, in which
a month ago one could scarcely detect
the presence of any living plant, are to
day striped with broad rows of vivid
green, indicating an almost perfect
stand of healthy, vigorous stalks. Nec
essarily the development is somewhat
different from the usual condition at
this season, but cotton has exceptional
power of recuperation, and the abun
dant rains here literally boomed the
crop. The main drawback to a full
yield is the rapid leaf development of
the stalk, which is not uow taking on
fruit to its full capacity.
THE CULTIVATION OF COTTON
will perhaps extend beyond the usual
period this year, on account of the re
tarded growth. But cultivation encour
ages greater plant development, and
when that is checked the tendency is
then to take on more fruit. Ordinarily,
squares that form after the middle of
August have not time to fully develop
before frost comes to check their growth,
therefore our plan should be to continue
the cultivation up to a reasonable period
and then turn the crop loose to form
and mature all the fruit possible in the
given time. All work in cultivating
after that time is but a waste of energy.
For the last working, one wide furrow
in the middle is all that is necessary,
the plow being adjusted so •as to cut
evenly throughout, and at a depth of
not more than 1 inch. Deep plowing
now is ruinous. I have often seen at
this season promising fields, in one week
after a deep plowing, with most of the
bolls and forms on the ground, instead
of on the stalk.
CORN.
In the southern part of the state this
crop is “laid by,” but in the northern
part there is perhaps some upland and
more bottom corn still to receive its
last plowing. Where possible, put in
peas at this plowing—in the drill or
broadcast according to the number of
furrows, and see that the plow is ad
justed, so that, if possible, not one feed
ing root is disturbed. I have witnessed
lately an apt illustration of the disas
trous effects of deep plowing, even when
only one-furrow is put iu the middle.
This field of corn, a very promising oue,
had been entirely plowed out, except a
few rows, which for some reason the
owner had failed to finish, the middles
being left unplowed. After the rains
commenced, the grass and weeds, al
ready started in these middles, began to
grow apace. For several days there was
was no perceptible difference between
the corn in these rows and that in the
rest of the field. All was vigorous, and
to the eye of the experienced farmer the
glassy, dark colored blades spoke of fu
ture full ears. But a gradual, and final
ly, a marked change occurred in the
unworked rows.
The weeds, by this time rank and
hungry, were robbing the corn of its
necessary food, the corn blades were
losing their healthy color, and only a
cursory glanc# was needed to mark the
difference between these rows and the
remainder of the field. Too late, the
plow was started.
In order to tear up the heavy growth
of weeds, the plowshare had to go iu
deep, and what was at oue time a prom
ising prospect is almost destroyed. The
stalks appeared hard and round, the up
per blades drooping, and the bottom ones
j VV .
Had the farmer intended to furnish
an illustration iff the dire effects of deep
E lowing at this season, he could not
ave giveu a more perfect oue. The in
jured rows, just now in the critical stage
of earing, may make something, but the
crop materially cut off, will never re
cover its former tone. The rest of the
field plowod earlier, and before it was
necessary to resort to the “heroic treat
ment,” is a picture of agricultural
beauty, the abundant ears and vivid
color attesting its Vigorous condition.
Perhaps not one Georgia farmer in
100 has followed the experiments in corn
culture, which are being carefully con
ducted at our station, running through
(Aeries of years. Because of this too
gKeral indifference, I would call atten
tion to the results and the conclusions
reached by these' experiments. It is
i proven by these mast careful tests, that
in comparison with a general manuring,
f* tilieer put only in the drill for corn,
does not pay. The increase in the crop
does not make an adequate return for
the additional expense involved. On the
other hand, where the corn has followed
crops of small grain and peas, on which
fertilizer was broadcast, the increase in
yield in comparison with the expense is j
so marked as to leave no doubt as to its ,
superior advantages, and a careful com
parison of results shows the more cer
tain profits are to be gained by the latter
plan.
In another part of the state I have re
cently seen this same principle illustrat
ed. The land on which this corn is
planted is sandy, with a yellow clay sub
soil not very far below the surface. The
owner told me that he excited the com
miseration of his neighbors when he, in
preparing, put his plow deep into the
soil, bringing up an occasional
modicum of the clay. He broad
cast peas (of course with manure),
following this crop with corn,
which was highly manured in the drill,
and when I saw this crop in the middle
of July the rows stood fofft feet apart, !
the plants three feet in the drill, and a
more beautiful prospect I never wit
nessed. By this plan the yield has here
tofore been from 80 to 40 bushels to the
acre. The two points to be emphasized j
are, the gain in the narrow rows, which j
saves both time and labor, and the fact
that this plan can only be ventured on
when the preparation and manuring are
very thoroughly and carefully executed.
As to how late corn should be cultured,
the season itself must determine. During
a drouth the roots run deep in search of
moisture. During a wet season the
feeding roots literally fill the space be
tween the rows and are spread out very
near the surface. The observant man
will note these facts and guide the culti
vation accordingly.
THE FALL CROP OF IRISH POTATOES,
now attracting so much attention, not
only for home consumption, but as fur
nishing a superior article for commerce,
should be planted at once, if not already
put in the ground. In previous reports
full directions for obtaining a stand, for
cultivation, etc., were given. At this
writing our potatoes in the ‘ ‘sprouting
bed” are ready for planting, and as only
those, which show the tiny sprout, are
used, we have no apprehension as to se
curing a perfect stand.
WHEAT.
In a recent conversation with an ex
tensive wheat grower, I was shown that
the earlier the land is turned the finer
the crop. Even in July it is not too
early to begin. A long experience has
proved that land turned in that month
makes better wheat than that turned in
August, which again yields more abund
antly than that turned in September
and so on.
REPAIRS.
While much of this month, and right
ly so, is given up to social gatherings
and to the interchange of thought and
plans so important, perhaps more im
portant to our calling than to any other,
there are many necessary repairs which
should not be neglected. This is the
month to cut down the heavy growth of
weeds on terraces and ditches, and in
fence corners, that the maturing seed
may not attain the power to add yet
more to the heavy labors of the coming
year.
Cotton picking will not, throughout
the state, begin in earnest until next '
month, and there are many odd jobs in
the way of repairs which have been 1
awaiting this slack season. Let us see
to it that they are now attended to with
promptness and dispatch.
FODDER PULLING.
Until we settle on some forage substi
tute, the laborious and expensive “fod
der pulling” must continue to take its
usual place in the operations of the farm
during the coming month. So far, there
is nothing which has superceded the
bright, clean, home cured blade, as
“roughage” for our farm animals; but
we pay a high price for every pound
and the question for some cheaper, yet
equally mitritious, substitute should en
gage our Careful study. In doing this
we will discover that in older and far
ther advanced agricultural communities
such an article as our Georgia raised
fodder is entirely unknown, and yet the
supply of forage is ample, and along
with other crops furnish ample home
supplies.
THE RECENT LABOR TROUBLES,
should cause us more than ever to study
this question of home supplies. Had
the strike been greatly prolonged it is
appalling to think of the almost univer
sal suffering which would have resulted,
not only in the cities but in the farms,
and this in a God favored country,
where every variety of food for man and
beast can be produced at a moderate
cost. It is true that for the past few
years more time and thought have been
given to producing at home the supplies
needed by our owu people, and as a rule,
the farmers are in better condition in
this respect than since the Avar, but we
should not stop short of complete inde
pendence of all outside markets. There
are two
LESSONS FROM THE STRIKE
which we, as farmers, can take to heart,
and which, if heeded, will prove both
salutary and profitable. One is the im
perative necessity of absolutely aban
doning the one crop system of raising
within our borders all the supplies need
ed, not only on our farms, but by our
entire home population. We have had
a sharp experience, and when with
bated breath we waited for tidings from
the storm center, when in some of our
larger cities scarcely a pound of bacon
or a bushel of meal could be purchased,
we realized in its full force the danger
of our past policy.
The second lesson lies in the fact that
while the congested cities were suffering
from the frantic struggles of their un
employed and unfed masses, in the
country there was comparative immu
nity from unusual disturbance. The
leports of violence and bloodshed and
starvation were only heard as the mut
terings of a distant storm, which, being
of short duration and limited area, in no
way affected the even tenor of farm
life. Had it continued longer, doubt
less the farmers depending on the west
for corn and meat would have felt the
agitation, but even had the labor dis
turbances been lengthened into months,
the home supply man was fortified.
It is true that the farm offers no glitter
ing inducement in the way of fortune,
the remuneration for days and months
.of labor is not large, but the man, who
will honestly and faithfully perform its
duties, need never fear the dire misfor
tunes which so often threaten the la
borers in other callings. To him there
is, at least, escape from the starvation
and suffering of the overcrowded cities.
