Experiments in Farming, Renova¬ tion and Rotation, Success in Cotton Planting, Fertilizers. Orchard and Garden. Department of Agriculture, Atlanta, Jan. 1, 1894. The year 1893, now numbered among the things of the past, was ushered in with many hopeful and encouraging signs. Southern farmers had more homo raised supplies; their indebtedness had been reduced; cotton, their main money crop, commanded a fairly good price; average grain crops had been made; throughout tiie length and breadth of the land the farmers were at last aroused to the importance of supplying humus of to tiie worn fields; acres upon acres starved land were absorbing the renova¬ ting crops, moro especially of peas, often of clover and grasses. Other hopeful factions were the reduc¬ tion of the cotton acreage and the wide spread sentiment in favor of homo raised supplies of meat and bread. Encouraged and hopeful, our them, people entered that on the work before believing, with proper and well directed energy and economy, success would crown their la¬ bors. But, unpropitious seasons, short crops, the low price of cotton, and other reasons difficult of explanation,here dispondeney have and precipitated a period of which find it discouragement, from wo difficult to rise. Let us look those conditions squarely in the face. Let us frankly admit any errors we may havo made and tako steps to avoid such future mistakes. Lot us also mark our successes, and build upon them for future prosperity. Every fai;m is or should be AN EXPERIMENT FARM. A knowledge of the results from the Btato experiment farm at Griffin is of great value to the body of farmers. But soils and conditions on different farms and in different localities vary greatly, and even on he same farm, different iields require different treatment. On all farms of waning fertility, and what Georgia furm is not more or less depleted? it is important to know in what tile deficiency con fists, and each farmer should f-'iudy make, ns it were. hi» own of each soil tests, the requirements crop, and then carefully note the effect of each applied fertilizer. It Is true that in commercial fertilizers there is what is termed the “perfect fertilizer,” con¬ taining all throe elements of nitrogen, acid and potash. But. suppose we have discovered that there is enough of even one of theso ele¬ ments iu certain soil, or that the by certain process we can draw them to surf ace, what is the use of paying a high price for material already within our reach? Experimental plats need not be trouble¬ some or expensive, nml they may ho made to tell us more certainly than any general soil test, no matter how scientifi¬ cally made, of what plant element the land stands most in need. For instance, one plant may lie ferti¬ lized with nitrogen alone, another with phosphoric acid, another With potash, a fourth with nothing. Then com bine these elements, two of each, then try all three. These experiments hoar directly besides on the economical side of farming, be¬ ing lull of interest and pleasure. To one who lias been accustomed to look upon the soil as simply inert matter,they open the door for a fuller and broader view, and lead to a more careful study of and more extended interest in the beautiful yet simple laws of nature. To those who havo never given thiH subject much thought, the statement that la inches below the surface of each average acre of land in Georgia there acid, iios at least two tons of phosphoric three times as much potash, and even almost more than that amount of lime, is be yorid belief, and at once the inquiry is suggested: Why Why buy these elements at all? not plow deep, bring them to the sur¬ face and add only nitrogen? in The reply is, theio elements are not soluble form, the ordinary crops cannot appro¬ priate them because plants do not eat, they drink. Therefore, knowing these two facts, i. e , that the elements can be placed in reach, and yet the piant.t las unable to appropriate them, it follows that onr chief study should la* how to put these important elements in soluble form, that they may enter into the struc¬ ture of our growing crops. And here we have the broad fi-ld of RENOVATING CROPS opened for our inspection and thought* ful study. and Our ordinary crops of corn cotton and small grain cannot but leguminous appropriate plants these locked up stores, can. In this class are peas and clover. When the roots and stems of either of these are left to decay in the soil, the labaratory ot nature begins at once si lently ^ but surely to convert the stores of p phori( . potash an d nitrogen, which have been gathered gathered by these plants from the earth and atmos phere, into available plant foot; that is, a large per cent of the original inaoIubJe elements are put in eoloole form and made fit for plant f<»d.
