Planting Forage Crops
For Feed
While time is still left for grow¬
ing teed for next winter, it is
thought a few suggestions as to
what to grow and how to grow it
would now be in order.
The recommendations here made
are for average conditions, and
where possible leguminous crops
should always be used since they
provide a muscle-building feed for
the animals and gather nitrogen
from the air, a part of which is
left in the soil.
COWPEAS. Cowpeas may be
grown in any part of the state;
they may be planted any time
after the ground gets warm until
the latter part of June. When
sown broadcast for hay use a bunch
variety; sow at least 1 bushel and
preferably £ per acre. When
sown in 30 inch drills, one half
bushel will seed an acre. For the
southern part of the state, use the
Iron cowpea, since it is not a host
to the nemetodes which are so
troublesom in the Black Root dis-
tncts.
SOY BEANS. The soy bean is
a comparatively new crop to the
state, and a legume which promises
to be very valuable in the rotations
of Georgia. Many varieties grow
erect and fruit bountifully. Plant
any time after frost unlil the
middle of July. When planted
late their growing season is mate¬
rially shortened. It is best to
plant in drills 30 inches apart, and
it requires about one-half bushel
of seed to the acre when thus plant¬
ed. There are a great many
varieties, but the one most univer¬
sally grown is the Mamouth Yel¬
low. The Hollybrook and Haber-
landt are medium late varieties
while the Ito San is a very early.
The Mamouth Yellow when plant¬
ed June first, should mature for hay
in 130 days; the Ito San when
planted at the same time should
mature in 90 days. Soy bean grain
is very valuable for feeding to
cattle, hogs and sheep.
We have lots in all parts of the
city, cash or terms. Tract prop¬
erty from live to several thousand
acres, in farm or timber land.
Two five acre t racts near shops
ail under cultivation, four room
house and hall, farm and so
forth. Good sale on easy terms.
Two lots, with six rooms plas¬
tered house that has a bath tub,
lavatory, sink in kitchen all com-
pleted, small barn, chicken
house, and other improvements
on west Altamaha street, only
five squares fnom Post Office,
and two squares from new depot,
this can be bought with $1,000
down and balance $25 per month
See this now.
Four lots on corner ot' Long and
Su wanee. Under good wire fence,
fine fruit trees and shrubbery.
Price this week $800.00, one half
cash, balance twelve months at 8
per cent. These lots are well
worth'$1500.00.
SOKGUM. For early feed, use
the Amber or the Orange, but for
a later crop yielding probably
more heavily than these and more
likely to stand up on rich land,
use the Red Head variety. Seed
at the rate of one and one-half
gallons per acre in drills three
feet apart. It may be sown from
early spring until June 15th. By
using different varieties and differ¬
ent times of seeding, one should
have feed irom July 15th until
late winter. Sorghum roots shal¬
low and is considered hard on the
land. There is no more draft on
the land from sorghum than from
an equally heavy yielding crop.
jt is very drought resistant,
MILLET. Millet is usually
sown from May 15th to July 1st.
It is not considered as the best of
feeds for’ horses, but can certainly
be used when nothing else is avail¬
able. It should be sown
cowpeas if possible. German
millet should be used.
often occures on account of
little moisture at seeding time.
Millet matures in about ten to
twelve weeks. Three to
packs of seed are usually sown per
acre when sown alone. Millet and
cowpeas sown broadcast at
rate of one-half bushel of each
produces RAPE, a good hay.
Rape in growth resem¬
bles a headless cabbage. It grows
from one to four feet high, and
furnishes an excellent forage crop
for all classes of animals. It is
usually grazed off. It may he sown
either broadcast or in drill 30
inches apart. Four or live pounds
of seed are sufficient for ari acre.
The seed costs about 6 cents per
pound. Rape is a cold weather
plant and does best on a fertile
soil. It can be sown any time from
the middle of September until the
last last of ot March, March It it is is reads reads to to ora/e
in about two months alter it is
sown.

Notwithstanding the unusually
cold weather, quite a large crowd
attended the picnic Tuesday at
Dooly Camp Grounds, and from
all accounts, the day was delight¬
fully spent. The picnic wasarrang
ed for by the A. B. & A. shop boys
and no detail looking to the com¬
fort and en joyment of the crowd,
was lacking. The train left the A.
B. & A. depot at 6:45 a. m., with
a large enough crowd on hand to
fill seven cars, and returned at
6 p. m.
