MONTHLY RFPORT OF THE DE
PARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.
What Correspondents Say About
Cotton, Corn, Melons, Rice, Etc.
—————
The following remarks, tak<m from
the state commissioner’s monthly report,
are of interest :
In the report for August we remarked
that for the month of July only limited
areas had been subjected to the same
weather conditions. During the month
of August this has even been more
marked, ;ind we regret to say that the
area where the seasons have, to any ex
tent, been propitious, has become much
more limited. Indeed, the weather has
been so unfavorable in some localities
that the Injury the crops have suffered
has amounted almost to a disaster. Some
sections have suffered from too much
rain while others havo had rains fol
lowed by drought, with dry and parch
ing winds injurious to all plants.
COTTON.
Since the last report the condition of
this crop has fallen off 4 1-2 per cent.,
and is now 79 2-7, and while these fig
ures are slightly above those of
last year, yet the backwardness of the
crop is such that it is liable to further in
jury and with only a small increase in
acreage we are inclined to the opinion
that the total yield for the state will not
exceed that of last year. With the low
prices prevailing it is imperative that
the farmer should so handle his crop
both in gathering and sheltering the
bales, as to to able to obtain the highest
market price. In that portion of the
report given to the monthly talk of the
commissioner special attention is called
to the importance of this matter.
CORN.
The condition of this crop has fallen
off very grently nnd is now 11 per cent,
below the corresponding period of last
year. Notwithstanding this the increased
acreage will compensate for loss by rea
son of unfavorable seasons, and the total
yield will equal or exceed that of last
year.
RICE.
The yield for this crop as shown by the
tabulated statement promised to to
almost an average. Since the corre
spondent reported, very disastrous storms
have prevailed in this section, resulting
from the reports in enormous damage to
rice planters. We can only hope that
detailed accounts may show that the in
jury is not so widespread as reported.

Oats.
Owing to tlie fact that oats are gen
erally regarded as an exhausting crop
they have not received the attention due
to their value as a grain and forage crop.
While practical experience is of the
greatest importance in determining the
effect of a crop upon the soil, still, in
the case of oats, analysis does not show
a greater amount of plant food to be
taken from the soil than by other grain
crops. In advocating the sowing of
oats we would not be understood as in
any way favoring the crop, if, where
permanent pastures can be secured, the
oats for winter grazing and for forage
is permitted to take the place. In farm
economy all crops have a place, and
none should usurp the place of the other.
As grain food for work animals it is gen
erally understood that oats are sujierior
to corn, and both should certainly be in
the bam of every fanner, enabling him
to change the diet of his work animals.
As a staple crop this grain has generally
been regarded as uncertain. In our
opinion, this uncertainty is largely due
to a failure to properly prepare and fer
tilize the soil and to sow_ in time. At
the time of year when tlie crop to l>e
successfully grown demands the atten
tion of the farmer, lie is busy in the cot
ton field, so the day of sowing is post
poned until It is too late to sow with
promise of success. Spring oats should
tie sown early in February. Fall oats,
according to the rale laid down by the
experiment station, in which we concur,
north of a line joining Columbus. Macon
and Augusta, should lie sown in Septem
ber : south of the line named in October,
and in tlie mountains even August sow
ing is advisable.

the crop exj *<;iwj to to raised. At the
experiment stations, nitrogenous or am
moniated fertilizers have proven the
most beneficial under the oat.
The following is the last experiment
of the station on this subject, as it ap
pears in bulletin No. 21:
EXPERIMENTS WITH OATS.
The winter of 1302-3 wu> unfavorable
for oats, the frequent hard freezes and
intervening thaws injuring the stand
and causing great irregularity. But for
a heavy fall of snow at one time the
damage would have been much greater.
The results of the tests must, therefore,
to accepted with considerable allow
ance. Tho yield of gTain probably
would have been 20 or 25 per cent,
greater had the stand been uninjured.
The results are given for what they are
worth, with some notes on each experi
ment.

Tho fertilizer teat, table 1, was unsat
isfactory on account of the poor stand,
which was due more to unfavorable con
ditions at sowing time than to the effects
of cold.
The land was thin, sandy, pebbly soil,
with yellow clay subsoil—originally very
poor, and no especial effort had toen
made to improve it. With good manur
ing a yield of from 25 to 30 bushels of
com per acre had just toon taken from
it. The land was plowed with a two
horse turn plow, October 7th, two and a
half bushels of Applor oats sown broad
cast per acre and covered with a spading
harrow. No conclusions can to ven
tured from tho results.

! For the reasons already given no posi
'■ 1 ivo conclnrtnwa can to drawn from the
results of this experiment. The seed were
sown November 10,1892,three bushels per
aero. The land was much totter than
that on which the fertilizer test was
made, but the stand was very defective
and irregular, owing to severe and re
peated freezes.
Ne definite conclusions other than the
mere statement of the yield of each
variety can to safely drawn.
TOP DRESSING WITH NITRATE OF SODA.
This experiment gives very significant
results. As the table No. 3 shows, the
two series of plots received the same
quantities of superphosphate and muri
ate of potash at the time of sowing, No
vember 17, 1392; but series No. 1 re
ceived 920 pounds of cotton seed meal
per acre at that time, while series No.
2 received only half as much cotton
seed meal. On March 8, series No. 2
received a top dressing of 207 pounds of
nitrate of soda per acre, estimated to to
equivalent—according to analysis—to
the 4GO jiounds of cotton seed meal.
The result strikingly shows the advan
tage of using less cotton seed meal on
oats in the fall, and supplying an addi
tional dose of nitrogen in the form of
nitrate of soda as a top dressing in the
spring. It is probable that had series
No. 1 received only 400 pounds of cotton
seed meal in the fall tli6 yield would
have toen quite as large as it was. Tho
cost of 920 pounds of cotton seed meal
applied to series No. 1 was substantially
the same as the cost of 400 pounds of
cotton seed meal and 207 pounds of
nitrate of soda..
Fertilizing fur Cotton.
In view of the nurntor of questions re
lative to fertilizing for cotton we publish
the following conclusions which were
taken from the work of the stations and
appear in the Experiment Station Record:
The conclusions are based on exjieri
ments in Mississippi and elsewhere. For
sandy and sandy loam soils the author
recommends from 200 to 600 pounds of a
fertilizer containing 2 1-2 per cent of ni
trogen. 8 per cent of water-soluble phos
phoric acid, and 2 ]*er cent of potash.
Red. sandy lands with clay subsoil re
spond to a fertilizer containing 3 per cent
of nitrogen and Bto 10 per it of water
soluble phosphoric acid. Potash is not
required. Black and gray prairie
soils do not respond to commercial fertil
izers, hut need tile drainage and legumi
nous crops. Yellow Ipam lands demand
a fertilizer rich in jx>tash with a small
percentage of nitrogen and phosphoric
acid. The brown loam soils of the bluff
formation respond well to fertilizers, and
require the same plant fotnl as the sandy
loam soils. There are also brief direc
tion; for the care of stable manure,
making compost, and applying fertiliz
ers.
