meetings is somewhat of a startling
revelation. That does not signify,
however, that the Mormons are
making any great headway in turn
ing the people of the South to their
‘doctrines and beliefs. There are
•ome Mormon doctrines which
throw discredit upon their religious
system, and it it almost an impos
sibility for the elders to do any
thing with a country Methodist or
Baptist, who is generally “sot in
his ways.”— Savannah News.

am not egaiutt the production of cot

me beg you, once more, to arrange and

Thar* ku boen a great deal of com
flsUt. In a gsusral way, that tho ln
efactioaa and analyaea of fertilizers, af
ter all, have been unsatisfactory. I
hare, therefore, determined to make a
eomplate aad tnoroagh inspection of all
gnanoe, in every section of the state.
To this end, if at any time a consumer
or retail agent may desire an in
epeotion of any brand of fertilizer, he
om, by giving notloe to this depart
■mat, have a sample taken by an an
thoriaed Inspector, and the same shall
be analyzed by the state ohemist; pro
vided, however, that in all euoh oases
camples shall be taken from unbroken
bags or packages. The ooasamers pay
the tec on guanos,and It will be my pleas
ure to see that they are amply proteoted,
and it ehall be done, even though it
take all ef the fertiliser tax to accom
plish it All 1 ask U the 00-operatioa

In the face of a short corn aud forage
tsep the farmers generally, throughout
the state, had determined to sow more
largely ef greia.'.but the weether condi
tions hevs been very unfavorable for
both fall and spring seeding; bonce the
noreage both for wheat and oats falls
far short of what we at one time ex
pected. The spring lowing of oats has
bees sesfoaslr damaged, and in many
esetioae entirely killed. Of course, this
is s' heavy blow to the agricultural in
terest* of Georgia; but we must meet
these oonditious as beet we oau by sub
•titatiag such forage crops es are best
sailed t* our soil. 1 would suggest the
planting of an acre ef sorghum, an acre
ef ape, eu sore of millet, eu acre of oets,
an am* of eerly speckle pees for a for
age crop. Use the beet laud et your
command, with special care iu th* prap
anstiou of the soil, end manure liber
ally. You can increase or decrease the
else of your lota as your needs may sug
geat These crops tuu be cut in the
green state, as you may need the for
age, aud allowed to dry a day or so be
fore feeuing.
As farmers are from three to five
weeks behind with their work, especially
plowing, many suggestions made in my
Ihbruary talk will be applicable for this
month’s work—hence, I would ask that
you read again our last month's "Talk,”
a* well es th* questions and answers
therein contained. Do not, in your
haste, plow your lands too wet—neither
will it pay to plant corn until you have
thoroughly prepared your soil for the
grain. I would rather be two weeks
late in seeding my crop, with the land
well broken and bedded, taking special
oar* to put in compost or commercial
manure, than to plant the usual time
with the ground hastily and ill prepared
•ad th* grain aad fertillrer put in in a
earelees meaner. “What is worth do
