as Mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering it through
the mucus surfaces. Such articles should
never be used except oil prescriptions
from reputable physicians, as the dam

Ex-Gov. A. H. Stephens’ Uouxin,
I am full cousin of the late Ex-Governor Alex
ander H. Stephens, and have been a postal cierlt
on different railroads since 1868. For ten years 1
have been a sufferer from a cancer on my face,
which trrew worse until the discharge of matter
became profuse and very offensive. I became
thoroughly disgusted with blood purifiers ami
pronounced them humbugs, as I had tried many
w2thout relief.
Finally I was induced to use B. B. lb, which
wits about the Ist of February, and continued its
use until the latter part of April. The offensive
discharge decreased at once and the hardness
around the cancer disappeared. It improved my
general health and 1 rapidly gained health and
strenjfth. The discharge gradually decreased
and the cancer became less slid less in size until
not hing remains but a scar to tell the tale of a
once dangerous cancer. All who have seen me
since I have commenced the use of B. B. B. bear
testimony of my great improvement, and the
scar on my face shows that it cured the cancer.
1 And that B. B. It. comes squarely up to what it
is recommended and I cannot say too much in
praise of this wondetfuf medicine. I have tried
them all, but 11. B. B, stands at the top as a blood
purifier.
The above is copied front the Athens (Ga.)
Banner-Watchman, being the voluntary language
of Mr. James A. Greer, which editor Gantt in
dorses.
“Mr. Greer is an honest, upright citizen of
Athens who had a bad cancer, and his numerous
friends thought that he could not live very long,
as the cancer was gradually sapping the founda
tion of his constitution, but now looks well and
hearty,”
3 Against 18.
Several physicians have pronounced m.v disease
blood poison, caused by paint, or lead in tlie
paint, but they could not cure me. Last sum
mer l used eighteen bottles of a largely advertised
blood medicine, which did me no more good than
so much water.
I have used only two bottles of B. B, B. and
am proud to say that 1 have received a* greater
benefit from them than from the eighteen, and
am nowf rapidly recovering. There is no ques
tion about the superiority of B. IL B. over all
blood remedies.

WHAT IN THK HMT MODE OF MANUR
ING AND CULTIVATING COTTON,
CORN AND PEAS, TO INSURE
BENT RESULTS?
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the !
Club : lam deeply impressed with the i
story of the wolf and the lamb when I {
rise to dismiss the topics which have been ’
assigned to me, at this hour. You know. !
’ j
it is said of the wolf that on some by- j
way ht> came iu contact with a lamb. The
lamb readily recognized the situation. |
and yielded to the fact that he must at i
once become a prey to the ravenous wolf.
However, before his destiny must le met, !
he importuned the wolf to permit him to
spend a few of his last moments in rev
elry, and thus prevailed with the wolf to
play ti tune on the flute, while he, (the
lamb,) could trip the light fantastic toe
to the beautiful strains of music. The
wolf, after giving assent, began to pipe
out loud and melodious strains of music,
which aroused some neighboring hounds,
who gave chase to the wolf and drove
him so far into the dense forest as to
reuder perfect security to the lamb from
his ravages. Upon reflection, the wolf
decided that his fate was what he deserv
ed, since he who was reared u butcher had
no business to turn piper.
Applying this principle to myself, it is
with great diffidence I approach the dis
cussion of my present subject before this
audience olVxperieneed farmers, since de
cidedly more of iny life has been spent
delving into intricate propositions of tlie
law, than with handling a scooter plow.
In addition to this, I have often (and
perhaps correctly, too,) heard gentlemen
j of the professions accused of crippling
the influence for good of agricultural
clubs, by dealing too much in gas and
long-winded discussions. And here I am
reminded of another story. Once upon a
time one of those fellows, who, like my
friend, Sam Drown, delighted in relating
fabulous things connected with his hunt
ing experience, began a yarn about an
enormous turkey he had killed. He said
that the wheat was so large in the field
where he killed the turkey that the tur
key could stand upon the heads and pick
the grains therefrom. And after he had
killed the turkey and placed it upon his
shoulder, it was so large that its head
dragged the snow in front and its feet
dragged the snow behind. Some incred
ulous bystander suggested that harvest
was a strange time to have smxv. The
turkey killer reflected a short time and
exclaimed: “I’ll be swamped if I huint
got two tales mixed.”
Now, in the discussion in which I ant
about to engage, you must not be sur
prised if you find me mixing things before
i get through. Especially do l appre
hend danger of this from the fact that
the committee has given me such a mul
tiplicity of subjects to talk about in one
discussion. There is consolation, how
ever, connected with my present situa
tion, and in this I am reminded of the
Irishman who once dined at a fashiona
ble hotel in New York City. Merely for
ornament, the proprietor of the hotel
had placed upon the table some very
fine specimens of red pepper. This kind
of food I’addy had never before cast eyes
upon, anti as it was so rich and beautiful
in color, he pictured to himself that it
must be imminently delicious and pala
table. So after waiting until his patience
became threadbare for the waiter to pass
it around, he-decided he could hold out
no longer and stuck a pod of it in his
mouth ami began grinding upon it. Soon
the tears came streaming from his eyes,
and he dropped it beside his plate, say
ing, “Now, bejabbers; you lie there and
cool awhile,” And L surmise, that after
1 make a splendid “bust” in this discus
sion, the club will lay me to one side for
the cooling process.
Gentlemen, you will please pardon this
nonsense, as it has been fittingly said by
one learned in arts, “that a little non
sense now and then, is often relished by
the wisest men.”
As the manuring point conies first in
my subject, I will give it notice first. And
here I will remark that it is a waste oi
time and labor to cultivate our ordinary
worn down uplands in any of the crops
embodied in my subject without fertiliza
tion, except peas. And they might, with
great propriety, be excepted, too, but
for the reason tiiat a growth of them,
however miniature it may be. brings fer
tilization to the land upon which they
are grown. And from this instrumental
ity alone, the grower of the pea will re
ceive compensation for cultivating the
crop.
As before stated, manuring cotton or
corn on ordinary uplands is indispensa
ble to the obtaining of results which will
pay the tiller of the soil. This being true,
the manure which will give the best re
sults with the least expense, is the one
which should be used; and this is, un
questionably, a compost ol barn yard
manure, cotton seed and acid phosphate.
And manure of this kind is in the reach
of every member of the club at compara
tively little cost. 1 can take a mule, and
from the manure I can raise from that
mule, together with thecorion seed which
can le produced from the mule, properly
composted with acid phosphate, I can
manure as much ground us that mule
can cultivate, with the compost ordina
rily moist, 1,000 pounds per acre. And
so can any member of the club do the
same thine;.
Now for the process of raising the ma
nure: So soon as your stables are clean
ed out in the spring, fill at least one foot
deep in wheat or oat straw, and at inter
vals ol one month during the year do
the same thing, having your straw till
the while in a heap exposed to the rain,
so as to keep it in a full state yf decom
position; that is, the straw which is to be
put into the stable, not that which you
have in the stable, for it should be pro
tected from the rays of the sun and the
rain, after it is placed in the stable. The
chaff which comes from wheat or oats
would be preferable, but as our fanners
never have a sufficient supply of chaff,
the straw is recommended. Wlmt chaff
the farmer has, however, should be mixed
with the straw. And your cows may be
handled in the same way that your horses
are by this process of raising manure.
Your manure thus raised should lie
placed in a heap with your cotton seed
and acid phosphate for at least one
month before the manure is placed upon
the land. If the barn yard manure has
ordinary moisture when it is composted
no water should be added to it; but if it
has not, then enough water should lie
added to make it ordinarily moist. After
your compost heap is made it should be
examined at intervals to see if enough
heat is being generated to firefuug the
compost. That is to give it mossy, whit
ish color. If such heat is generated in it,
then water should be poured into the
heap in such quantity, and at such inter
vals, as will keep the compost from fire
funging. In one months' time, with
projter heat, the compost will become
sufficiently rotted to furnish the plant all
the fertilizing qualities of which the com
post is capable. And unless you have it
in this rotted state you will not get first
class results from it the first year it is
placed upon the land.
For cotton, if you are succeeding cot
ton, break your land thoroughly and
deeply with four-inch scooter plows in
earl v"spring. If your land Is stubble laud
turn it with a two-horse plow in the fall
preceding. J ust before you are ready to
plant lay off your rows three feet apart
with long six inch shovel plow (and keep
the plow sharp so it will take the dirt)
then distribute your manure, made us
above indicated, in the drill one thousand
jiouikls ]>er acre, 200 pounds of which
should lie acid phosphate, ami no more,
and 4*oo each of barn yard manure anil
cotton seed. List upon the manure with
small twister, and after this is done run
two more furrows to the row a like twist.
Th< u run out the water furrow with 4-inch
Bccoter and 14-inch patent scoop.
It is preferable then to havearainupon
the beds liefore planting. After which
open beds with small scooter plow, run
ning it nearly to the compost, Then run
in trie seed with a planter and coon them
with lirtle double loot plows attached to
the planter. When your cotton is nearly
ready to come up, and especially if you
have had baking rains upon it, run a 4-
inch scooter and 18-iuch patent sweep le
-tween the rows, and a one-horse harrow
following on the row. After this is done
and your cotton is well up, if you have
ha<l baking rains on the land, run a
Thomas' smoothing harrow diagonally
across the rows. T hen run around the
cotton shallow and chop it out just as
quick as possible, leaving it from one foot
to 1 e-inches in drill, one stalk in a place,
This early chopping 1 regard as all im
portant, because until it is done your fil
tiliziug properties are being supped dam
ugingiy by the plants which are useless,
and which must come out in order to re
duce the cotton to a proper stand. So
the earlier it is done after the cotton is
large enough to chop the better it is. As
soon as your cotton is chopped out run
around it with a small scooter and small
scoop very shallow. After this keep the
grass out of the row by hoeing, and plow
it two furrows to the row with patent
sweeps after every season of rain until
the cotton is ready to lay by, when it
should be swept out shallow, so as to
leave the ground as nearly level as pos
sible.
The above rules, closely followed, of or
dinarily seasonable years will produce
satisfactory results. If the farmer, how
ever, should have more compost than
enough to fertilize as heavily as 1 have
heretofore indicated then and iu that
event I would recommend that he run his
cotton on the intensive plan of fertilizing.
Tfien I would recommend tiiat when tlie
cotton is first run around additional com
post be distributed in tlie furrow on each
side of the cotton, say one thousand
pounds j>er acre, 500 pounds of which
should be placed on each side of tlie rows.
Now, some gentleman may say such a
high state of fertilization would burn up
the crop and nothing would be made. My
reply to that, however, is that more cot
ton will be picked from the laud by high
fertilization than will be picked by less
manuring. In addition to this, each year
under this system will increase the pro
ductiveness of the land, and the better
prepare It for receiving and profitably
utilizing intensive fertilization.
For corn on upland break your land
thoroughly and deeply with four-inch
scooter [flows two ways in early spring.
After this harrow the ground until thor
oughly pulverized with Thomas’ smooth
ing harrow. Early in March lay off your
rows four feet apart with six-inch shovel
plow. Drop your corn four feet apart in
the drill and drop on each side of it a good
sized handful of compost made as before
indicated, and cover with double-foot
scootu [flows. As soon as the corn is well
up run around it medium shallow with
small scooter plowi, four furrows to the
row, and take till the grass out of the
rows with hoes. After this, plow out the
corn with 18-iuch patent sweeps very
shallow every eighteen days until thecorn
is waist high, then sow one half bushel of
peas [ter acre broadcast upon the land
and lay it by with eighteen-inch scoop
very shallow, leaving the land as nearly
level us possible.
For corn on loose, loamy bottom land,
turn the land the fall prior to crop with
two horse plow. Then about the middle
of the following March, if the weather is
favorable, break the ground thoroughly
with four-inch scooter plows, after which
harrow it with Thomas’ smoothing har
row until thoroughly pulverized. Then
lay off your rows four feet apart and drop
the corn two feet apart in the drill, put
ting from three to five grains in a place,
so as to insure a stand. Drop by the side
of each hill, provided compost is plenti
ful, a handful of the compost, and cover
lightly with double-foot plow. When the
corn is well up run the bar of a large
twister next to the corn, and with the
wing thoroughly cover up the middle of
the row. After one week hoe the row clean
and put the corn to a stand two feet
apart in the drill, then plow two furrows
to the row with 17-inch patentsweep, and
continue to qlow it at intervals of 14
days, until the corn is waist high, when
sow one-half bushel of peas broadcast per
acre and lay by with 18-inch sweep. All
the [flowing in this class of land should,
alter the corn is up, be done as lightly as
possible.
Stiff bottom land for corn may be
treated in the same way, except occasion
may demand different treatment, such as
harrowing to pulverize clods, break crust,
etc., all of which must be done as good
judgment may dictate to the planter.
lor [teas, when laud is cultivated for
no other crop than peas, I would recom
mend planting in rows three feet apart,
dropping the [teas two feet apart in the
drill, from six to ten peas in a place. The
planting should be done not earlier than
the Ist of June so as to get the cool
nights of the fall season on the peas at
bearing time. If you have compost on
hand when [teas are plauted drop a small
handful to each [tea hill. If not it will
pay to [tut on from 200 to 300 pounds of
cotton seed meal, dropping near the hill
of [teas. I prefer planting [teas for a pea
crop alone in rows and iu bunches in the
rows, for the reason tiiat tliey grow and
fruit better when they are in bunches of
some half-dozen together. After the [teas
are well up plow them out with scooter
and scoop, or [latent sweep. Then after
three weeks’ time [flow them out in like
manner ugain and lay them by. If, how
ever, when they are plowed the first time
there is grass or weeds in the row, they
should Ist taken out with hoes. In my
opinion [teas should never lie planted
earlier than the first of June, and if u late
lull Ist of July would be preferable.
Peas plan ted early will, perhups, give a
good vine, but fruiting will be sparse and
good results will not be obtained.
It is, perhaps, not out of place here to
remark that definite rulescannot be given
for manuring and cultivating crops which
will, in every instance, give the best re
sults. Because in writing an essay the
writer is left mainly to theorizing, and
theory alone in fanning will not do to
rely upon. Theory in its place is indis
pensable to successful results in farming,
as the art of farming is, to some extent,
Iteing redueed to a science. But combined
with theory, good judgment and experi
ence are necessary. And this is true of
all professions and occupations. Take,
for example, the physician, and without a
knowledge of the text books, though he
ffiay have ever so much experience ip
practice, he is deficient in his profession,
While on the other hand a knowledge of
the text books without the experience in
practice is wanting. But when you com
bine the two in one man you have a
physician who is able to distinguish him
self in the art of medicine. The same is
true of the profession of law, and it is not
the less true of farming. Because I'll tell
you to make a perfect farmer requires as
sound sense and discriminating judgment
us it does to make a perfect physician or
a perfect lawyer.
1 once knew a man in the county of
Laurens who had been highly educated,
imd had spent his life to the age of 45 as
u commission merchant in the city ot Sa
vannah. In 1870 he came in possession
of two large plantations in Laurens coun
ty through his wife, who was a grand
daughter of Gov. Troup. The two plan
tations had formerly belonged to Gov.
Troup. He immediately sold out his
mercantile business, moved upon one of
the plantations and began farming.
Whilst he was a most estimable gentle
man, elegantly cultivated and refined, he
was a city gentleman and a kid glove
gentleman. And it was really amusing to
hear the farmers in his neighborhood
comment upon the inevitable failure
which he was destined to make. But he
went to work, and such system in farm
ing I never saw in any man. He was so
minute in detail that he actually kept a
daily record of the weather and the rains,
ami he talked fanning with every planter
with.whom he came iu contact. The re
sult was in less than three years he was
pointed to as the model planter in that
whole section of country. When I left
the county of Laurens in 18J 1 1 he was
doing more to revolutionize the planting
interests and to get it upon a higher
plane than any man I knew of. Well, now
the secret of that man's success was not
in the fact that he had been reared to
drive the pen instead of the scooter plow;
but it was in the fact that howascapable
of thinking, and he gave the subject of
plauting thought, and combined the re
sults of his matured judgment with ex
perience and practice.
And while it may be a digression from
the discussion of my subject, yet I trust
it is not out of place to remark that
farming, like every other business, re
quires the individual attention of those
who follow it successfully. A combina
tion of energy, physical and mental force,
will surely reward those who combine
them and drive them to the utmost capa
city in the business of farming. And
nothing else will give perfect success.
Success may be approximated without
these; but without these it cannot be fully
realized. It is well for every farmer to
thoroughly mature his plans in planting '
the crops allotted to me in this discus
sion: and likewise to have his plans for |
caltivating them matured and well de
fined.
And the rules which I have laid down,
closely followed of ordinary years, will
give satisfactory, if not the best results.
But the plans of the wisest ami best farm
ers may come in eontact with emergencies j
which absolutely require a change in the
plan. And when these emergencies arise
it is indispensible that the planter should
have his wits about him in order that he
may turn the change in plan in the dinv
tiou that will produce the best results.
He is on the ground, sees and knows the
condition of the soil, and lie must so di
rect his cultivation as to produce the best
effects on his growing crop. If he knows
something of the theory of farming he
may here combine that knowledge with
what experience he possesses, and thus
direct his movements in such a way as
I will enable him to overcome the obstacles
which may lie in his pathway.
Our system of labor is often very
troublesome and deficient, and our seas
ons are very varied and without uniform
ity. All these things must tie closely watch
ed and guarded by the successful planter.
He must keep all the parts of his lines in
such order that if he gets, at any time, a
fall, he will be able to catch upon his feet,
and tin#! not be crippled by the fall, lie
must never become discouraged, but al
ways work for the best results and not be
disappointed if he falls short of his ex
pectations. He must remember that his
is a high and noble calling, and that the
world is made daily better off by his ef
forts. That while he may fall short in
some instances, there is in store for him
and his posterity a glorious future,
which Providence will in due season
abundantly bestow upon him. — Col. J. J.
Conner before the Stileabofo Agricultural
Club.

CROP REPORT.
From the June report of Col. J. T. Hen
derson, State Commissioner of Agricul
ture, we quote as follows concerning the
condition and prospect of the leading
crops:
Though a drouth prevailed throughout
the State until the latter part of May,
our correspondents report the growing
crops generally several points better than
last year. While cotton and corn are re
ported somewhat late, both are reported
m good condition—well worked, healthy
and quite as promising as that of any
crop for the past three or four years at
this stage of growth. With moderately
fair seasons from now on, it is safe to pre
dict the best crop of cotton and corn
since 1882.
The oat crop has been disastrously af
fected by the drouth, hardly three-fourths
of a crop being hnrvested. In fact, part
of the crop, on uplands, is too low to cut.
The acreage in wheat is small, but the
crop is well grained, and the yield good.
Little or no rust is reported in either
wheat or oats.
Tiie reports of other food crops—pota
toes, rice, sugar cane and ground peas—
are very gratifying, and indicate a grow
ing and more active interest on the part
of our people in the production of home
supplies.
A comparative statement of the condi
tion of leading crops in the different sec
tions will be seen in the following notes:
COHN.
The condition compared to an average
of fifty years is, in North Georgia, 102;
Middle Georgia, I>C; Southwest Georgia,
Oil; East Georgia, 9(1; Southeast Georgia,
99, and iu the whole State 97.
WHEAT.
The yield, or prospective yield in many
of the counties of North Georgia, is re
ported much above the average of five
years. In Gordon county it is given at
118; in Catoosa, Chattooga, Hall, Mur
ray, Pickens, Rabun and Union from 105
to 110; in Bartow, I)ade, Floyd and
Gwinnett from 102 to 104. The average
for the section is 95. The reports from
Middle Georgia are not so favorable, only
two counties reporting the prospective
yield above an average, while that of the
section is 75.
The prospective yield for the whole
State is 84, which is 14 points higher
than the reports of last year's ciop on
the Ist of June.
OATS.
The yield, or prospective yield, is, in
North Georgia, 80; Middle Geornia, 50;
in Southwest Georgia, 08; in East Geor
gia, 74; in Southeast Georgia, 80, and in
the whole State 72.
Only ten counties in the State report an
average yield; of these there are five in
North Georgia, two in Middle, one in
East and two in Southeast Georgia.
COTTON.
The stand compared to a good stand is
in North Georgia, 99; in Middle Georgia,
95; in Southwest and in East Georgia,
97; in Southeast Georgia 98, and in the
whole State 97. The stand is 14 points
better than was reported for that of last
year at this date.
The condition and prospect in North
Georgia, 102; in Middle Georgia, 97; in
East Georgia, 95; in Southeast Georgia
99, and the whole State 99.
fruit.
There is little difference in the report of
the fruit crop from that oi the first of
May. There is almost entire failure of
the peach in most of the northern coun
ties, but about half a crop iu the south
ern part of the State.
The proi>ective yield of apples is re
ported 02 per cent.; pears 47 jar cent.,
and grapes 97 per cent., or nearly a full
crop.

About twenty years ago I discovered a little sore on ray cheek, and the doctors pro
nonneed it cancer. I have tried a number of physicians, out without receiving any perma
nent benefit. Among the number were one or two specialists. The medicine they applied
was like fire to the sore, causing intense rain. I saw a statement in the papers telling what
S. S. S. had done for others similarly afflicted. I pr.> -tired some at once. Before I had used
the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer was healing up. My general
health had been Dad for two or tnree years—l ban a hacking eougn ana spit blood contin
ually. I had a severe pani in my breast. After taking six bottles of S. S. S. my cough left
me and I grew stouter than I had been for several years. My cancer has healed over all but
a little spot about the size of a half dime, and it is rapidly disappearing. I would advise
every one with cancer to give S. S. S. a fair trial.
