INTERESTING REPORT.
What Commissioner Nesbitt Has to
Say to Georgia Farmers for the
Month of January, 1894.
PLANS FOR THE COMING YEAR.
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.

THE ILLINOIS LEGISLATURE
Looking After the Alum and Ammo¬
nia (taking l’owders.
(Chicago Inter Ocean.)
A lull for an act, entitled “An Act
to 1 ilatetho Traffic in Baking Pow¬
der ' lias been introduced In the L‘g
islaloie at .Springfield, by Mr. Ncrbe,
The bill Is Intended to prevent th«
sdqilercv.nn «rf baking iinpv/*i ptMCtlnfs
Ammonia or Alum, proper
poimtides to enforce the law, etc. This
shows an earnest desire on the part of
out rein'esentauvt a l<> protect their
constituents.
Tim Chicago Tribune, referring to
the question of legislation on Alum
and Ammonia baking powders, says:
It denis ..... In it direct manner with an
evil Unit must be out down,”
“Following is a partial list of tho
names of the brands sold in this State
that have been examined and found to
contain cither Ammonia or Alum,
Many of tho Alum and Ammonia
Powders arc labeled and advertised ns
'absolutely pure.’ to mislead tho pub-*
lie,”
Calumet, Potest City, Chicago Yeast,
Grant's Bon Hon, Hotel, Taylors’ Oua
,Spoon, Taylors’ Double Strength, Cli¬
max, Boa To i, Town Talk, Maubac
tan, Evans, Dobson <Se Hills, Shepard’s,
Bain’s, Kenton, K. C., Itoyal, Double
Eagle.
In addition to Ihe above list there m
a multitude of brands sold with a prize.
It is safe to reject all baking powders
sold with a pri/'*, as the teats show
they are cotnpoied largely of alurn and
coat but a few emits t«o' poitod. Also
refuse any baking powder 'sold at
twenty-llvo cents a pound, or less; It
Is euro to contain alum.
Surely nothing but their cheapness
could induce the public to experiment
with these Impure powdi rs at the risk
of health. Aside from the question
of health or the wholesometiess of
these condemned powdeis, and viewed
from tin; standpoint of economy alone,
a pure grapo cream of tartar baking
powder like ‘Dr. i’rtce’s,” from its
greater known strength and unques
I bumble purity, will prove more ©Co
uomical to ttie user In every way.
