Talk . m the Farmers.
I have travelled recently over a large
part of the state, adareeamg the farm
ers in the interest of intensive and pro
gressive agriculture, and explaining them ti#e
relatione of this department I to
ax>d to their work was most favora
bly impressed with the promising oon
dition of the
corn crop.
Where the proper fertiliser bos been
used and in sufficient quantities, and
the work has been rapid and thorough,
th« result is most gratifying. dark All
through southern Georgia the
waving fields of this grain give promise
of an abundant yield.
the oaT crop,
Exoept on very fertite laud or where
on poorer laud a liberal application of
lot manure or suitable commercial fer
tilizers has been used, will not amount
to more than half a or op. This is doe
in some meaenre to the long sowed drought,
Wherever the crop has been in
the fall or early winter, and the former
ia undoubtedly the most favorable time
for sowing, and where the land has
been well prepared, the contrast is so
marked that no thinking would man, witness
ing the vast difference, ever again
take the risk of sowing in the with spring all the or
on unmaoured land. Even
dry weather, which has prevailed to an
alarming degree for eight or nine weeks of
in the middle and southern portions
the state; thia crop, when sowed n the
fall and well manured, will give most
satisfactory results, while the spring
sowing, and that ou mimannred land,
will actually scarcely pay for the plow
ing necessary to put in the seed. With
this object lesson meeting us ou every
side, why should we ooatiuue the at
tempt to grow crops on land that past
experieooe has shown will acaroely pa?
for the work put upon it. Oats is the
very best and cheapest crop we can grow,
In hot weather there is no food for
horses or mules that equals it, and with
the same attention that we give to other
food crops, it can be made as surely,

the horn fly
In some portions of Sonthern Georgia
last year cattle were very much aunoyed
snd their condition reduced by the rav
sges of a small fly about mie-belfthr
size of the house fly, which it resemble*

fly is known as the Horn Hy, or Buff.-w
Gnat. The latter name lias beoouieiur
rent the fly under is idenUcal the ^sapprehmsiou with the sonthern that
buffalo gnat of the Mississippi valley,
However, the injury done by the horn
fly is not to be compared to that of the
southern buffalo gnat, and '“deed there
msy be no fear of any immediate dernier
to the life of stock. For the benefit of
