The west is continually striking for this, that and the other. But Atlanta gets there when she strikes. Atlanta struck for $200,000 of Uncle Sam’s money and she got it. The only thing that can be said of Georgia with the appropriation is that Atlanta has been worth two hundred thousand dollars in this instance to say nothing of her perfected value. We are glad Georgia lias at least one Atlanta.

The growing interest in the business of dairying, the success attained at the Experiment Station dairy in the man ufacture of cheese as well as butter, and the great need of organization among dairymen for the dissemination of information, and for other purposes, have suggested the expediency of form ing a state Dairymen's Association. Circular letters have been sent to hun dreds of persons in the state who are engaged in dairying for market, with a view to iinding out what they think of the expediency of organization. The following questions were asked in the circular letter : 1. Do you approve the proposed organization? Answer: 2. If you approve, at what place do you think it would be most convenient and expedient to bold the first meeting for the purpose of organ ization ? Answer : 3. On what date (some date in August is sug gested.) Answer : 4. Will you attend the lirst meeting and take part in its organization and deliberations ? Also give names and address of others who will attend from your county. Answer : 5. Will you authorize the Direct or of this sta tion after considering suggestions under 3 and 4. to appoint the time and place and issue a call for such a meeting ? Answer : Sign your name Post office County The replies to the circular received so far are uniformly favorable to the scheme-many of them enthusiastically so —and the proposed meeting will prob ably be called. A plurality are for Griffin as the place of meeting, because of its proximity to the station dairy, and the middle to the last of August as the time. The replies also, without ex ception. authorize the director to decide upon the time and place, in accordance with question No. 5. There are doubt less many persons interested who have not received copies of the circular let ler, as it has been found impracticable to secure a full list of names. It is the object of tliis notice to invite each and every person who feels interested, and especially those who will attend the meeting, to write at once to the “Direc tor of Experiment Station. Experiment, Ga.” a reply to the questions as above given, by number, so that there may be as full an expression, as possible, of the views of all. If, therefore, you feel in terested and wish to attend the meet ing and take part in the organization of the association, write at once to the director. Efforts will be made to se cure reduced rates of fare on the rail roads. — R. .1. Redding, Director. ANSWERS TO INQUIRIES. [Under this head short inquiries from farm ers on practical farm topics will be answered by one of the station stall and published, if of general interest otherwise the answers will be sent by mail. Make your inquiries short and to the point, always give your name and post otllce and addressed to the “Director Georgia Experiment Station, Experiment, Ga.' ] Curing Pea Vines. [By the Director.} Several inquiries have been received as to the best method of curing pea vines, and an answer has been promised in “The Farmer's Columns.'’ 1. The proper stage at which the vines should be cut in order to make the most nutritious and valuable hay is when they are in full bloom. This stage may he indicated by the presence of a few full grown pods, and occasion ally a ripe one. Cut at this time, or earlier, the vines are rather more diffi cult to cure (because the stems are more succulent) than when cut at a later period. But it will also he found that the earlier cut vines will not shed their leaves so readily. The later the cut ting the more woody will be the stems and the less nutritious and palatable. Yet the product is good even if the vines be not cut until loaded with ripe peas. 2. It is better to cut with a regular horse mower, but a short, strong scythe blade will answer for small areas. 3. Commence cutting in the morning, after the dew has dried off, and con tinue until noon. In the afternoon, say four or five o’clock, rake the cut vines into sharp cocks about five feet high. Next morning, about eight o’clock, open the cocks with a fork and spread the hay around on the ground. In the af ternoon of the same day, gather into cocks again, at the same hour, fitting several cocks into one. If the weather continues clear and hot, these cocks may now remain without disturbing them, until the liay is dry enough to haul and store away in the barn, which will be in the course of three or four days, varying according to circumstan ces. If the weather should become showery, stack poles about twelve feet high should be erected at convenient distances, and the bay should be stack ed around them. Care should be taken to lay rails or poles around the base so as to form an elevated platform to keep the hay entirely off the ground. In ad dition three or four long rails, or sap ling poles, should be placed around the center stack pole two feet apart at the base and extending to within two feet of the top of the stack pole, where the ends may be secured by nhiling, or oth er convenient way. The hay should be S laced around the staekpole, dressed own as smoothly as may be, and the top capped with long straw, or crab grass, or with a pateht, wood-pulp hay cap. The object of the side poles, or braces, is to keep the center of the stack open, and thus admit the air. In our experience at the station we have had pea hay to remain in such stacks five or six weeks, embracing a period of showery weather, and witti very lit tle loss. The principal points of cau tion to be observed are (1) to avoid mowing the vines when wet with dew or rain, and (2) to avoid handling the cured, or partly cured, vines when the leaves are crisp and dry. Wait until the moister air of the late afternoon causes the leaves to be pliant and tough, and they will not fall off so readily. The hay may be known to be dry enough to keep in the barn when the larger stems will not show moisture when twisted between the fingers. The above is the general method that has been successfully employed at the station for the past four years. One ton of well cured pea vine hay is an average yield per acre, where peas have been sown on small grain stubble. Fall Oats in Nortli Georgia. J. H. F..-Kensington. Walker county. Ga.t Kindly inform me whether I could safely sow oats in this section in the fall. I know of no farmer who sows in the fall. The spring sown is generally a failure. I am located in McLe more's Cove, between Lookout and Pigeon mountains. I want to sow 200 or 300 bushels, but wish your advice before Ido it. I moved here from Lincoln countv where the custom was to sow oats in the fall, and I see no great difference between the conditions here and there. Our lands are rich and produce thirtv to forty bushels of corn per acre without man ure of any kind. Answered by Director Redding: Tha fact that no one in your section sows oats in the fall might be held as pre sumptive evidence that the inexpedien cy of doing so had been long ago de termined by experience. But 1 would not let such evidence deter me from trying the experiment for myself. When it does escape winter-killing' a fall-sown crop is so much more product ive that I would sow every fall —at least half of all my crop —even if not assured of success more than one year in three. But every reasonable precaution should be observed. 1. Secure a hardy, winter variety such as the “Winter Turf” oat, or the named has generally been sold by Mark W. Johnson Seed Cos., of Atlanta, this is a slow maturing variety, and should be sown*early. It has proven to be the most hardy to resist freezing than any of the varieties tested at the station during the last five years, and is quite productive. 2. Sow early in the fa. 11 —in your sec tion early in September. Asa rule avoid low-lying, wet bot tom land. Your dry. valley lauds are not objectionable. 4. Sow liberally, say from two and a half to four bushels of seed per acre : and if the land is thin manure well, using 400 to <SOO pounds of good guano, or a mixture of acid phosphate and cot ton seed meal per acre, two thirds of the acid and one third of meal. About the Ist to lath of March, or even later, top-dress with 100 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre, sowing it just before or just after a rain. This will greatly in crease the yield of both grain and straw. The above are the spec ial precautions. The land should be thoroughly and deeply plowed and harrowed until smooth and mellow. The seed may be sown by hand and covered with a cut a-way harrow, or Morgan spading har row, or any good harrow, and the sur face smoothed with a smoothing har row, or, better still, put in the seed with a grain drill. The fertilizer should be applied at the same time the seed are sown, excepting, of course, the nitrate of soda, which,should be applied after growth starts in the spring. The above suggestions will apply to any section of Georgia, with such mod ifications as will occur to any thinking farmer. Farther south the Texas Rust proof and the Appier (a, sub-variety of the Texas R. P.) may be sown, and the sowing may be latifr according as the latitude is lower. Rig Strawberries. J. W. L., Columbus. Ga.: What are the lar gest varieties of strawberries and what is the very best manure for them ? What are the earliest and best varieties of tomatoes, and manure for same ? Also same for cantaloupes? Answer by Hugh N. Starnes, Horticul turist: The most uniformly large berry I know is the Sharpless, It is also ear ly and of excellent flavor, requiring lit tle sugar, as it is not acid. It is irreg ular in shape, but always large and outsells any other berry two to one in a home market. Its drawbacks are that it is not a good shipper, is not a heavy bearer and is soon over. With all these taken into consideration. I would nev ertheless recommend Sharpless unhes itatingly for a home market. Its ap pearance alone will sell it. and, after all, this is what the trucker wants. Its appearance is not deceptive, either, for the buyer, purchasing by looks, g’ets a good berry in quality. Next to Sharpless perhaps Haverland comes in as a good second. It is large and regular, very handsome, deep red, and mid-season to late. Not of first quality but sells well on account of size. Rather soft for shipping. It is a pistillate (that is, does not self-fertilize) and must be planted near some per fectly flowering variety, as Sharpless, Wilson, Michel or Hoffman. One row of Sharpless between six of Haverland will do. though, if planting both kinds, it would be best to alternate. Crescent is another good berry. Larg’e, bright scarlet, of good flavor and a prolific, vigorous grower. Pistil late. Gandy is another good, large, late variety, regular, of excellent quality and ships well. Hoffman is best large early berry for .long shipments; carries well; quality good. Bubaeh (No. 5) while not so large as the others mentioned, should not be . omitted. It is of mid-season and of good quality. Bederwood, Wolverton, Jessie (P) and Charles Downing are all good berries. The best manure you can use is a complete fertilizer, with an addition of potash either in the form of muriate of potash or wood ashes. Use all the stable manure you can command and in addition from four to six hundred pounds of any good standard fertilizer, with the addition per cwt., of twenty pounds of muriate of potash or one hundred pounds of unleached ashes. You can make a good formula for yourself with 320 pounds superphos phate, 100 pounds nitrate of soda, and 150 pounds of muriate of potash. The chemicals can be bought from any fertilizer house. Early Tomatoes. Let it be borne in mind that the earliest tomato is not necessarily the best for the trucker. Methods count much more than varieties. Skillful handling by one man may make a small early tomato a large early tomato, while in the hands of another it may lose both in size and date of maturity. The earliest tomatoes are probably in their order: Faultless, Puritan, Par agon, Optimus, Dwarf Champion, Cum berland Red, Atlantic Prize and Hors ford’s Prelude, though the latter is small. I think, however, that better satisfaction would be derived from the following list, which, tlioug’h not quite so early, naturally, could be made by the free use of superphosphate, practi cally as early, and which would give a larg-er yield of better and more market able fruit for a longer time : Acme, Trophy, Ponderosa, New Stone, Match less, Table Queen, Mikado, Paragon, Optimus. For a fertilizer use same formula as for strawberries, to wit. either a complete fertilizer ready made, with the addi tion of twenty pounds muriate of pot ash per cwt:; or 320 pounds superphos phate, 1(50 pounds nitrate of soda and 150 pounds muriate of potash. A good plan would be to use only halt' the amount of nitrate of soda when first applied, and the remainder in inter cnltural applications, thus prolonging the bearing season. Cantaloupes* Formula for cantaloupes, per acre: 400 pounds superphosphate, 200 pounds nitrate soda and 100 pounds muriate of potash. If desired, substitute 450 pounds cotton seed meal for the nitrate. Earlier melons may be obtained by giv ing half the ration of nitrate when land is prepared and remainder inter culturally. Hackensack is the safest cantaloup?) yno can plant, all things considered. That or Extra Early Hackensack. Mon treal Market is also good. Tomato Rot. W. B. L.. Columbus. G;v. : I writ-, fir infor mation regarding a certain kind of tomato rot— for instance, a kind of dry rot affecting the bloom end of the tomato and not injuring the stem end at all. The tomato will begin to rot, heal over and then ripen, but is not salable. I have had ripe tomatoes all along since the 12th of May and would have had several hun dred dollars worth but for that terrible disease. Have lost about two thirds of my early crop. Please let me hear from you as I would be very glad to find out the cause and remedy. I have spent a great deal trying to raise early toma toes and would have succeeded admirably had it not been for that rofc Plants all look healthy. Answer by Hugh N. Starnes. Horti culturist : Description is quite meager, but from what you write the affection is proba bly a fungus disease called “Phytop thora Infestans" which also affects the Irish potato. The Aliments of this fun gus having gained access to the fruit, spread rapidly, tilling the cells and robbing them of their substance. This will result in “dry rot" unless there is considerable moisture present, when the ordinary processes of decay come in. and “wet rot” is the result. Another fungus—a species of “Ma erosporium” produces roundish.decayed uecoming Diaca, upon tne fruit. Still another. “Fusarium lycopersici” attacks the ripe fruit only, forming a thick mold over it, at first white, then reddish. The remedy for either disease is the same: 1. Trellis or tie up vines to stakes. 2. Remove all affected fruit at once and burn to prevent spreading of spores. 3. Before the fruit has set. while plants are in bloom, and thereafter at ten day intervals, for two applications, apply Bordeaux mixture, using a knap sack sprayer with Vermorel nozzle. Formula for Bordeaux Mixture : 5 pounds copper sulphate (Bluestone) 5 pounds lime (must be fresh, not air slacked. ) 50 gallons (1 barrel) water. Dissolve copper sulphate (pulverized) in clean wooden buckets (2 },{ pounds to bucket) 2 gallons water to each bucket. Pour in a 50 gallon barrel and add. say 20 gallons water, stirring thoroughly. Strain into barrel from buckets, through the gauze sieve accompany ing the knapsack sprayer, and buy no sprayer without the sieve. Slack the lime in another vessel, diluting, when cool, to a thin whitewash, and strain into the bluestone solution through the g'auze sieve, stirring thoroughly. Af ter this fill barrel with water. Stir always before using. The perfected Galloway Knapsack Sprayer, of 5 gallon capacity with Ver morel nozzle and strainer, manufac tured by the Deming Cos., Salem, Ohio, price about sls< is perhaps tiie best form and cheapest instrument for the purpose to be found. The Demiag nozzle will probably do as good work as the Vermorel. Possibly a consid erable discount could be obtained on list price as given above. Wine Grapes. H. If. W., Jerusalem. Ga. : Am thinking of planting, with a view of making wine three acres in grapes. The land is high, dry, red land, exposed to the sun at all times of the day, being a rather round knoll. It is not rich, but I expect to improve it. Will such a piece of land be suitable for grape culture ? What kind of grape would best suit this section (Pickens county) ? How thick should they be set ? Should they be trained to a scaffold or confined in a bunch upon a stake ? How much wine would boa moderate yield to the vine when in full bearing ? Where can I get the vine you would recommend and what would they cost in large quantities ? Answer, by Hugh N. Starnes, Horti culturist. 1. The land described will do very well, especially" on south and west slopes. 2. For wine in your county (Pickens) Norton's Virginia would be the best grape you could select. It is only suit able for wine, however, and is not a ta ble grape. 3. Plant in rows, circling around your knoll, twelve feet between rows. This will allow free passage of vehicles. Set the vines ten feet apart in the rows. This distance is not too great for ram pant growing vines of the Aestivalis species, to which Norton's Virginia be longs, and will give you more satisfac tory results than closer planting. 4. Train on a trellis of three wires on what is known as the “Fan” systemr This is fully described by L. H. Dailey in a little work entitled “American Grape Training'’ published by the Ru ral Publishing Company of New York. It is impossible to sufficiently condense a detail in the limits of this paper. An excellent and economical method of training is the “Munson” system. This you will find fully described in “Our Native Grape” by Charles Mitzky, pub lished by Charles Mitzky & Cos., Roch ester, N. Y. In this connection I would also advise you to purchase “Huss man’s “American Grape Growing and Wine Making,” published by the Orange Judd Cos., New York. A peru sal of these three books —none of them large—will render you pretty well up in the theory, at least, of grape culture and wintj making. ITaetice and expe rience must do the rest for you. 5. Norton’s Virginia ought to yield you, the third year, an average of five pounds per vine, if properly cared for. The fourth year this should reach eight pounds, and a yield of ten pounds per vine be reached the fifth year and maintained thereafter. The latter yield, would give you per acre, if vines are set 12x10 as suggested, 3570 pounds of grapes, on a basis of 357 vines per acre. This may he considered a medium yield. At 7 pounds to the vine, 2,500 would of course be the yield. The amount of wine obtainable depends considerably op the method of treat ment ; that is. the amount of water ad ded and the number of pressings through which the husks are passed. California grapes yield only about 130 gallons per ton, but American grapes will turn out, under skillful treatment, from 200 to 250 gallons per ton, of fair ly good claret. Hussman's “Grape Growing and Winemaking,” previously cited, will give you full information on this head. 6. For vines, write for special prices per thousand to either of the following parties: P. J. Berckmans, Augusta, Ga.; G. H. Miller A Son, Rome, Ga.; Bush & Son & Meissner, Bush berg, Mo., or Elewanger & Barry, Rochester, N. Y. On your acreage, you will require some thing less than 1,500. They* ought to cost you not more than $35 per thou sand, if so much. If you keep your milk in the cellar along with turnips, potatoes and rotten pumpkins, and have no other place to keep milk and cream, sell your cows. In nearly all cases three feeds a day is all that a cow can eat and digest, and giving her more than this is usually more or less of a waste.
