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 Department. About Subsoiling.

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 Chamberlain Medicine Cos., Dos Moin es, lowa.

I*l anting Ohloma 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 partment. sutctuatoM.- k-werr^-fnaungw<cavc.-.a.~w or.-T. rx-- v -./i*. fSJURE SLOOD is tlic foundation ® of health.
