GENERAL REMARK 3.
Th« BoM Worm In UftiiiHginu: tlie Cotton
Crop to a Very Great Extent.
The last month has brought but little
change in the crop conditions through
out the state. Considered as a whole,
the weather has been rather unfavora
ble than favorable, and both corn and
cotton have suffered to some extent.
COTTON.
The receipts of cotton at the interior
towns verifies the reports of the dep trt
nient that in many localities the crop is
from 10 to 15 days late. The continued
rains in North Georgia have added to
the development of weed at tlio. ex
pense of the maturing of the crop, ren
dering it liable to greater damage from
early frost.
In Special localities great damage is
reported from boll worms, indeed we
are not aware of any occasion or year in
which the crop has been injured to such
an extent by this pest. The ravages of
the worm is reported as amounting to a
disaster in Jasper county, and the in
jury by them as unparalleled in Oconee
and Oglethorpe counties.
It is with regret that we note the
falling price of our staple crop, and that
it now commands a price far below re
munerative figures at which it can be
produced. The commissioner in a re
cent monthly talk called special atten
tion to the effect that proper handling
of the crop would have on the price it
would command in the market. We
would emphasize this and urge our
farmers to exercise care in gathering
and handling the crop. In the event a
farmer should consider it desirable to
hold his crop, or any part of it, let him
seo to it that it is properly protected
from the weather, and that no deterio
ration in grade takes places by neglect
ful exposure on his part. The lessons
we should learn from the present ruin
ous prices are severely taught, but let
us, as far as possible, profit by them
and improve the condition atTd capacity
of our land, diversify our crops and
render ourselves independent ami our
farms selfsustaiuing. It may not be
amiss to call attention to another mat
ter in this connection, which has been
often touched upon in the publications
of the department, and that is the at
tention we should pay to the marketing
of any side crop of which we may have
a surplus. The fact that our money
crop Has’ always found ready bidders
for cash in city and village lias led to
carelessness in the disposition of the
sniallor produets of the farm, and many
dollars have lawn lost by indifference in
this matter. It behooves us to husband
every resource. In response to our in
quiry the method of saving sweet ]iota
toes adopted by a thrifty farmer which
has proven profitable to him will be
found in the inquiry column of this re
port. ¥he profit to the farmer results
from the difference in'price between a
glutted market and a market in which
n food product is scarce and the de
mand steady. Georgia is among the
three first states in the production of
sweet potatoes, and by exercising the
same pains, taking the care adopted by
the farmer we have mentioned, the crop
could be made the source of much
greater profit.
COItN.

corn crop since our report for August.

Pr.AVTNWfI ANI) PEA "T-BPT.E.
About what difference does if make
|in the improvement of the land be
j tween plowing peavines under and cut
ting them off for hay and plowing un
der the stubble? H. O. Y., Bremen.
A recent experiment at the experi
ment station of Arkansas gave a yield
of 1,409 pounds of seed cotton where the
peas W'ere picked and the vines turned
under; 1,294 where the vines were cut
for hay and the sfnbble turned under.
| A plat of the same laud upon which no
; peas were planted gave a yield of 1,008
pounds of seed cotton. It is evident
| from these yields that the land was
comparatively well supplied with or
ganic matter, and in onr opinion on
| poorer land the difference at least in
I percentage of increase would be greater
from the use of the entire vine.
POTASH.
Why is it that in the usual commer
cial fertilizer so much less potash is put
than phosphoric acid ?
W. A. T., Columbus.
As a rule, the lauds of America con
tain much more potash that is available
I for plant food than they do of phospho
! ric acid. They also in many cases con
| tain gravel, which by gradual disinte
gration, is constantly contributing to
the potash supply of the soil. As to
the amount of the two elements’ de
mand, it will depend entirely upon the
character of the crop. Another reason
presents itself in that the portion of the
plant into which the phosphoric acid
enters is usually consumed and not re
turned to the soil, while that into which
potash enters in the hands of the care
ful farmer finds its way back to the
field. For example, phosphoric acid is
the chief portion of the wheat grain
which is entirely removed from the soil
while the potash enters principally into
the straw, which is in part left on land
or fed to stock and returned in the form
of manure. In animal consumption of
grain, into which both elements enter,
more of the phosphoric acid is taken up
by the body than the potash. Hence, it
is easily seen that where a propter sys
tem of agriculture prevails that more of
the potash is returned to the
soil in the form of manure.
CUT HAY.
In feeding hay to horses do you con
sider it best to feed the hay whole or
cut? F. A. P., Waynesboro.
It is much better to feed your horses
cut hay than whole hay. Two horses
subjected to the same amount of work
and one fed on cut hay and the other
on whole hay will show the former in a
short time in much better condition
than tlie latter. In the east and west
jt is the usual custom to run hay
through a cutter before feeding, and as
the condition and working capacity of
our stock is essential to i>rosperity, it
Would be well for us to profit by this
example,
BOLL W< >UM.
We have been very much annoyed
and great damage has 1 iceu done in this
section of the state by the boll worm.
Is there any remedy? .T. A. H.,
MouticeUo.
As the depredations of the toll worm
are within the toll, it is very difficult to
reach them, and nearly all remedies
have proven of but little effect. The
usual methods of contending with the
common cotton worm, or caterpillar,
have toon found to some extent palia
tive. Such as the use of arsenical pois
ons and the moth trap) lamp.
As a preventive where laud freezes tq
a considerable depth during the winter,
fall plowing will be found very bene
ficial. A rotation of crops where the
small grains can be used is also bene
ficial. It must be remembered that the
corn worm and toll worm are the
game.
