Referring to several - communications recently received we notice a growing ing demand on the part of farmers for cotton bags of 187 pounds capacity in stead of those at present used for sack ing fertilizers. The cotton bag, besides adding another item to the long list of demands on our annual cotton crop, would have several advantages oyer that now used. It is more durable; showa and retains the brand more per fectly; is easier to handle. If fertilizer dealers can consistently use the cotton sacks, it will be a help to farmers, and we are now in correspondence with fer tilizer men as to the feasibility and de sirability of the change, from their standpoint. Another matter to which we would call attention is AN ERROR IN ANNUAL OF ’96. On page 105, the proportion of Paris green is stated as 1 pound to 2 of road dost or ashes and 5 pounds of flour or lime. It should read 1 pound of Paris geeen to 60 pounds of dust or ashes and 5 pounds of flour or air slacked lime. The last ingredients are used to cause the mixture to stick to the plants. - This is the season when the advantage of using insecticides and fungicides be comes-powerfully apparent The own ers of orchards, rineydrd* aud garden*, which have been judiciously sprayed, are now enjoying a comparative immu nity from tne attacks of myriads of in sect and fungus enemies, which are prey ing upon their neighbors’ less carefully protected fields.. It ia a fact, however, that oue neglected orchard in a neigh borhood of fruit growers becomes a “rock of stumbling and offense.” be- of the extra diligence required to neighbor. Farmers are reading more aud studying more ou this and kindred subjects, aud we trust to see the day vaiuaoie crop, out is snouiu do iea so when these precautions will be cousid- | the hoga before it becomes too hard, ered as much a part of the fruit and 1 thafc ^ before the seeds become pea- garden industry.as the plautiug of the foctly ripe.

Time used in seeing ***** the surface which will conserve mois- are abunuant»y supplied with a health- the surface which will conserve mois ture and also promote *the free access of air to the shallow lying plant roots, we will .not be apt to put the plow in too deep. An inch is sufficient, and if the wide cutting scrape or expanding culti vator is used, the work may be done very effectively and very rapidly. One thing to be remembered is that differ ent varieties of the same crop require different treatment. For instance, the late maturing, large growing varieties of cotton , are not benefited by late work. The plowing in such fields should caase at the earliest practicable moment, because plowing promotes the very con ditions which we wish to check,namely, a development of foliage at the ex pense of fruit. On tbe other hand. M the tendency of the smaller, quickly maturing kinds is to cease leaf growth and begin to take on fruit very early, therefore, in such varieties a shallow - center furrow even in August is known to be of benefit. fear for forage may be sown all during this month. Tbe prolonged drouth of last summer just at the season when fhis crop was maturing, has caused seed to be scarce and high But the fact that large Quantities are being sold and sown, show* that at last farmers are be ginning to appreciate their value as a forage aud as a renovating crop. If their luxuriant growth is encouraged by an application of acid phosphate and potash, the extra expense will be returned in the increased yield of a most nutritious and convenient food crop and in the stored up nitrogen, which they have gathered from the air and depoeited in the ground. * potatoes / planted now make smoother and better keeping tubers than those pat out ear lier.

If*cut longer there will be more pptgtoes to each jrine, but bar the pests from the more carefully Kept orchards. Among no-to-date fruit growers and gardeners, spraying is in universal use. and is oue of the regu larly calculated expenses. The man who allows hie fruit trees and vegeta bles to take care of themselves, with the fnl variety of food and plenty of clean, fresh water, is well bestowed. Keep their quarters and feeding places clean and disinfected as far as possible and give an occasional dose of copperas, about a small teaspoonful to the hog— - this will prevent worms. Kerosene mixed with melted lard or oil and ap plied through a watering pot while the hogs are being fed and are crowded close together, will keep down vermin. As a disinfectant, lime wash, which a little carbolic acid is dissi^ id, is a powerful agent If these simple pre cautions are observed there will be far less complaint of loss from the fatal dis eases which have heretofore carried off so many thousands from our annual hog supply. These and other meant used for pushing the spring pigs to early and healthy maturity enable ns to obtain pork of fine quality and at a fair profit PLANNING FOR FALL CROPS. After the summer crops are “laid by”, we will have time to take a calm sur rey of our surroundings and plan for our fall crops and also for the general rotation, which we propose for another year. One of the most important laws in aay system of rotation is that plants of like habits and growth, and abstract ing the same elements from the soil in the same proportion, should not succeed each Uthcr. All plants demand more or less the same e emente. but absorb them under meu iiiiTer-*iit couuitious ana in such differeut proportions, that plans as to equalizing tne draught upou the soil, are worth the most carefui scuiy. At the south, under present conditions,the three year rotation oas found tne most profitab.e. First *»-t*. '• >Jrowed the same year by peas, then c «ro. then cotton.
