As indicated ln«t month, th« towing of turn crop should be regulated hs far as po.wibin to anout ten dhys before oar usual killing frost is etpeotad. A loin tion of blusstone, applied to the seed by soaking, will destroy the smut sporas, aud rust can be in a measure controlled by selection of seed, judi eious fertilizing and sowing as soon as possible on well drained, high land, with a northern exposure. Wheat pre fers each a situation, and it being ob •arved that rust is most destructive in hot, damp seasons, an early matur ing variety should be selected, and though wheat is a nitrogen ab sorbing plaut, we must exercise judg ment as to the quantity of this ele ment supplied. An excessive amount, al though producing luxuriant growth, is a promoter of rust. The safest source from which to obtain nitrogen is a clover stubble turned under—lucking tilts, eottoaseed meal comes uext, or if preferred, the whole cottonseed.

TURNING UNDER PEA VINE*. To get tha full value of a pea crop, tha b«at plan is to out and oura for hay, or store in the silo for onailaga, then turn under the stubble. But as wa have had Inquiries as the to entire the best time for turning under crop, we would advise- that this bo done after tha vinaa era fully matured. In this condition they deoompose more slowly win nnd are lose leaohed away by the ter rains. The younger vines are very •nooulenk deaey more rapidly, their and there is more aooidity from de composition. Where the entire orop la turned under, a top dressing of lima applied after this Is done will be found very useful in correcting acidity; It will also oauaa to be formed oertniu chemi cal compounds In tha soil, which will be of valuable assistance in furnishing plant food for another orop.

Mr Hill will weigh ycur cotton and see that you get the highest market price for same. With two live buyers In the market representing large export dealers there is no reason why we should not have a market second to none. General Merchanc ise Before buying it wrl pay you to drop in and get our prices on Groceries, Staple, Dry Goods, Notions, Hats Shoes, –c. We bought early before the advance in prices and propose to give our customers the benefit of same. Thanking you for past favors, we are yours to serve Hill – Arrington. m* ■wgniy. »n» aair grown la fast ing prematurely, and the crop being gathered, ginned aud sold. Pains should be taken to gather and handle the crop as nicely aa possible, inevitably ae traeu and dirt of any deecriptiop Again, canee a red nation *n the price. never in paoking mix dirty and dean cotton in the same bale, hoping to sell it ail for the price of the clean cotton, for invariably the entire bale sells as dirty Liverpool cottou buyers Th. cotton are oom plaining at the way American cotton is paoked aud demnni au lmprovemeu’ in tnat line. 1 thiuk there is room lor improve aent and I trust that ou farmers will take pains to cover their cotton bales as neatly as possible, bid in; the sides nnt ends entirely with bagging so that h-ss dirt may accumu late on the cotton and less cottou be washed on acoouut of dirt after retch ing the factories. As to the threat o Liverpool layers to iniDosa a heavy penalty ou our farmers tor poor pack log of cotton, that is all bosh and non sense. They must bny our cotton how ever packed, but it is much to our in terest to paok it ueatly aud carefully. I must warn onr people against of an l other thing. Never sell all the sie from the first and second pickings o the crop ano depend upon the seed from the third aud lost picking for plum ing. This is a very serious rnistak as very mrny of the s?ed from the last pinking ore immature au liuht. and if they germinate after planting, can only deviloj into went and sickly plants. Always reserv** your planting seed from the bottom or middle crop of cotton, ior thev are ap to be plump, heavy nni fatly matured, and when planted will dove op into healtuy vigorous plants. The crop will wii be gathered early th s yearau l not in my opinion exceed it it reaches 7 000,U00 bales It my estimate of the crop is riglu oottou will be selling to higher prices in the spring than it is bringing at present While I beiieve prices will be hizher later on, I do not aivise bolding cotton Each farmer must be his own judge of that matter, aa the conditions surround ing each are different. 1 do. however, unbe itvingly advise against selling cottonseed at too prices now offered. Eve-y farmer iu tne state knows bow valuabio tiiey are as a ferti izor for corn wheat, oats and other crops, aud as a mmplo matter of eoonozuy, they shonld not be so d at present fr ees. Keep your seed to build up your compost heaps, with which to enrich your land, ami you will be much better repaid t.iau by selling them at present prices. CORN.
