Capt. J. A. Fulton, of Dawson one
of the most successful wheat growers:
in all Southwest Georgia, writes the
following letter to the Americas lie
publican:
Col. C. W. H ancock, — Dear Sir
By the request of Mr. W. S. Witch
aitl. I send you for publication, my
experience in wheat growing for the
ast three years:
In the fall of 1875 I lad a live
acre patch which I intended to plant
in wheat: but as the ground was oc
cupied with cotton, like a great many
others, I waited till Christinas for the
“top crop’’to open. During Christ
mas week I broke up my land with
a turn plow, and commenced plant
ing Wheat the 4th of Jan’y 1876, by
laying off rows 18 inches apart with an
8 inch shovel, putting in the furrow
150 Ihs. Baughs’ Raw Bone Phos
phate, and 10 bushels cotton seed
per acre, and on top of that, half a
bushel of purple straw wheat per
acre. Covered with the same eight
inch shovel, l>v bursting out the
ridge between tbc rows. Then
knocked off the top of the ridges
with a straight board. Finished
planting on the 7ib Jan’y. Had a
tine stand in ten days, which grew
np finely. Reaped on the 30th of
May following, turning out about 15
bushels per acre, weighing 00 lbs.
per bushel and turning out 38 lbs. of
good flour. Pastured hogs on it two
weeks, and planted in speckled peas:
picked off twelve bushels, pulled up
the vines, 'cured them and fed to
stock during winter.
On the Ist of Nov. 1876, I com
menced breaking land again with
turn plow, and finished on the Bth
having been delayed by rains, <fcc.
Laid off’ rows one foot apart with a
five inch scooter, and strewed in fur
row 150 lb. Watson & Clark's Guano,
and 10 or 12 bushels cotton seed per
acre. On the 15th commenced stew
ing half bushel of wheat per acre, in
furrow with guano and cotton seed
and covered all with the same five
inch scooter, by bursting out the
ridge between the rows. Finished
planting on the 25th Nov. Soon had
a fine stand on top of the small ridge,
which grew' off finely, and com
menced heading on 12tl April.—
Reaped on the 23rd of May 1877,
thrashed on the 25th, and measured
up 22 bushels per acre. Had some
ground on the 28th. Weighed 64
lbs. and turned out 33 lbs. first qual
ity of flour. No rust nor smut.
After pasturing stock on the waste
wheat four or five weeks, I laid oil
rows feet apart and planted speck
led peas. Made a fine crop and
then gathered about fifteen bushels,
and then opened a deep furrow be
tween the rows of pea vines while
green and laid them down in the
row, added about four bushels cot
ton seed ] >er acre, and beded on them
with a turn plow. On the 15th Nov
-1877, I finished breaking out the
middles, planted 20lbs. or £ bushel
wheat per acre, in water furrow, af
ter strewing in said furrow 10 bush
els cotton seed and 75 lbs. English
Dissolved Bone per acre composted
about five or six weeks before using.
Covered wheat and compost with a
small diamond pointed scooter.
Again I had a fine stand of wheat
with rows feet apart. Early in
the spring, V>efore the wheat began
to joint, I barred it off as closely as I
could, wit', a very small scooter. Let
it stand a week, then ran another
farrow round k, filling up the first
and. putting a little dirt to the wheat.
This was all the cultivation I intend
ed to give it, as 1 did not wish to dis
turb the bed of pea vines and cot'on
seed in the middle, which I intended
for cotton. Hut the weeds came up so
quickly and grew so rapidly that I
feared they would absorb the fertili
zers and injure the wheat; so 1 took
a gopher or solid sweep and ran two
furrows in each middle, shaving off
t he weeds and throwing a little more
dirt to tlie wheat and still leaving a
flight elevation or ridge in the mid
dle above the pea vines. <&c. I am
satisfied that these plowings materi
allv benefitted the wheat. It grew
oft rapidly and commenced heading
on the first of April, nearly two
weeks earlier than last year.
On the 23rd of April I commenced
planting cotton between the rows of
wheat by opening the bed where I
had hurried the pea vines and cotton
seed, with a three inch scooter, put
ting in 75 lbs Zell’s Guano per acre,
strewing the seed through a guano
: trumpet ano covering with two fur
j rows with same scooter. Finished
j planting on the Ist May, and in a
1 day or two knocked off the tops of
ridges with a board. The cotton
came tip nicely, but the stand was a
I little injured by cut-worms and grass
hoppers (locusts). On the 18th
May I had my wheat cut and thrashed
on the 23rd, and it measured up 103
bushels, or a little over 20 bushels
i per acre, of the very best quality of
wheat. Mr. B. H. Hood, who has
thrashed over four thousand bushels
' this season, says it is the heaviest
and best wheat lie has thrashed: and
i Mr. J. M. Curry, of our city mills,
1 says it is the best he has ground. I
' attribute this partly to the care and
management of the seed, care and
mode of plan’ing and partly to the
distance and cultivation.
Soon after removing my wheat
| crop I barred oft' and chopped out
| my cotton ; plowed and hoed it again
and am now plowing it the third
time. I have six acres in cotton,
and it is very pretty f>r its age, will
average 18 inches high, and is grow
ing rapidly and 1 looming and boil
ing profusely ; and if it continues at
its present rate I think I will make
three bales, or half a bale per acre.
But I fear I am making this letter
too long, If you or your readers
wish to know my reasons for drill
iug wheat instead of broadcasting, in
the old way, I will give them in an
other article. Also what I know
and think about cultivating wheat,
&c. Yours truly,
John A Fulton.
Dawson, Ga.. July' 15, 1878.
South Georgia Bonanza.
For several years past the LeCon
te, or Chinese sand pear, has been at
tracting the attention of nurserymen
and horticulturists. It is a prolific
and an early bearer, and seems to he
proof against the diseases and insects
that usually attack pear trees. Mr.
L L Yarnado, of Tliomasville, in a
letter to the Puitman Reporter, gives
a history of this remarkable pear.—
It was introduced in Georgia, in 18-
56, by Major John I-eConte, of New
York, who presented a rootlet to
Mrs. Harden, of Liberty county, who
planted it in 1856. The tree began
to bear in 1860, and it was then dis
covered that the pear besides being
good for cooking and preserving wa 8
a most delicious table fruit when
ripe. Mr. Yarnadoe secured a cut
ting and grew the second tree in
Georgia. After this time the war
intervened and the trees were near
lected, hut when peace had returned,
Mr. Yarnadoe turned his attention to
the cultivation and propagation of
the sand pear for the purpose of plac
ing the fiuit on the market. He
moved to Thomas county in 1869,
carrying with him a number of cut
tings from the tree. These lie plant
ed in January of that year, but was
not successful in getting many of
them to live. From those that sur
vived, however, Mr. Vamadoe inaug.
urated what may very appropriately
be termed anew industry in southern
Georgia.
In 1871, Mr. Yarnadoe gave a few
cuttings to Mr. II 11. Sanford, of
the Dixie nursery, who immediately
recognized the remarkable qualities
of the new variety. Mr. Yarnadoe
says that in an experience of twenty
years he lias never seen a diseased
tree or defective fruit. The tree s
vapid in its growth, attaining the
height of thirty feet long and limbs
twenty feet long bend down under
their delicious burden until they
touch the ground, so that, when
fully fruited, the trees resemble in
appearance the weeping willow.
The fruit is ready for market a
month earlier than other varieties of
large pears—say about the first of
August—and therefore commands a
fancy price. Mr. Varuadoe sold a
consignment of this fruit in Boston
on the 2d of last August for ten dol
lars a bushel. The yield of the tree
is extraordinary, and Mr. Varnadoe
is of the opinion that his orchard will
make at the inte of oue thousand
bushels to the acre, and at ten dollars
a bushel to the acre, it will be per
ceivcd, can be made quite profitable.
So great is the faith of Mr. Varnadoe
in the future of this fruit, that, he
and his sons have put out one thous
and trees.
Mr. 11. 11. Saiidford, of Ttomas
county, who has done more than any
one else to introduce the sand pear,
challenges the world to produce a
tree show ing more fruit annual y
than the LcCoute variety, lie says
furthermore, that he would rather
have one thousand bearing pear trees
than the best cotton plantation in the
country. It seems that south Geor
gia is in possession of area! bonanza.
