Sorghum as a Forage I’lant.
Question. —Is sorghum a good plant
! for feeding croon, and for making hay V
| If so what variety would you recom
mend, and how to plant and save?
Ajtswkk.—Sorghum is a most excel
lent forage plant to feed either green or
to save as hay. It does best on rich,
I leamy soils, but will do well
| on any soil that will produce fair crops
jof corn or cotton. Prepare the land
; well, and bed a-; you would for cotton
iu feet row , using from 200 to 400
pounds of a complete fertilizer. About
cotton planting time open a shallow fur
row cud drill the seed—from a half
bnsbel to three p is to the acre. Cul
tivate :• hallow and often. When grown
for forage it is not necessary to thin
out, though thinning is very essential
when the sorghum is grown for syrup
making. The “Early Amber” and
“Minnesota Early Amber” are excellent
varieties, ;ix arc also tho “Early Orange”
and “Kansas Orange.”
Sorghum will do better on thin soils,
j and will stand drouth better than corn.
For malting hay, cut soon after it begins
to bloom and put up in small shocks
until cured. F< r feeding green, outting
should 1 begun as soon as the plants
1% .i t 'm heads. Stir tho ground
with a cultivator or plow immediately
after harvesting a crop, and the sorghum
will continue to grow and make a
second id third cutting. Feed but
little at first, increasing tho amount
day by day, until the stock become ao
cut-homed to it. State Agricultural

A CRITICAL TIME
DURING THE BATTLE OF S£N
TIAG9.
Sitli or Well, a Rush Night aud Day.
Tho Packers at the Battle of Santiago
de Cuba were all Heroes. Their Hero
ic Efforts in Getting Ammunition and
Rations to the Front Saved the Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on
July 23rd, says: “We all had diar
rhoea in more or less violent form, and
when we landed we had no time to sec
a doctor, for it was a case of rush and
rush night and day to keep the troops
supplied with ammunition and rations
but thanks to Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we
were able to keep at work and keep
our health ; in fact, I sincerely believe
that at one critical time this medicine
was the indirect saviour of our army,
for if the packer* had been unable to
work there would have been no way
of getting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train could
use. My comrade and myself had the
good fortune to lay in a supply of this
medicine for our pack train before wo
left Tampa, and I know in four eases
it absolutely saved life.”
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicine, the

QrESTiON. —I have an acre of good
hammock land now in peas. I wdsh to
plant this land i:i onions as soon as tho
peas are taken off. After broadcasting
well rotted stable manuro over the
ground, will it require any com
mercial fertilizer? If so what kind and
how much? What variety of onion
seeds would you advise? How many
seed will it require? Where can I get
reliable seed?
Answer.— Your land should bo deeply
broken and harrowed and re-harrowed
until the soil is thoroughly pulvorized.
This careful preparation, in addition to
heavy manuring, is essential to the suc
cessful raising of onions. In addition
to a liberal applio ttion of well rotted
stable manure, you will find it advan
tageous to add at least 500 lbs of cotton
seed meal, and 500 lbs of kainit, half of
which should be broadcasted, and half
applied in tho drill. The onion likes a
heavy dose of nitrogen, and is also fond
of potash and salt, both of which it wi’U
got from the kainit. In your latitude
(below Savannah), to have early ouioas
on tho market you should sow the seed
in a seed bed, from Sept. Ist to Sept
15th. When the yonug,plants are 3or -1
inches high, transplant thorn, taking
care to retain all tho root fibres if pos
sible; set out in rows 13 inches apart
aud 4 to 5 inches iu the row. This
should bo done immediately after a rain
to insure the plants from dying. In
transplanting press the small bulbs
firmly into the ground. The Bermuda
or the Italian varieties are best to plant
from the seed, in this latitudo. Five
pounds of seed should furnish enough
plants for an acre, and good soed can be
obtained from any of the loading seed
growers, such as Laudroth, Baist or
Henderson. Don’t fail to have your
land rich ami well prepared if you wish
fir success. Tho causes of moot of the
failures in onion cuiture, and indeed in
all truck growing, have been poor prep
aration of the soil, or insufficient man
uring, cr both. —State Agricultural De
