I see a great deal < ” uil; ab int reducing tho cotton area, and I; mu understand that if a uinu has to buj supplies, or to curtail his pro vision crops iu.grdef to put in a big cot ton er ,p, Jie is working on a wrong ba sis, hot when he takes neither of these riski 1 don't see hew ho would make a mistake wiling in every acre pos sible ifi cotton. Answer. —Your question touches at the ve ry root %f this cotton problem. If a iuhU hai taken tiie precautions you mention, be has a right to put in every acre ojf cotton which lie can property cultivate. Bat just hefe is the diffi culty.) There are hundreds and tlion samlsjof acres of laud devoted to cotton each jjeur, whWi do not pay tin; cost of production, and. in prop' rtloii as the bales linado on these acres go to swell tho general crop and thus reslu -e the average price, they, to that extent, iu crea.-y the burden which their cultiva tion iljnpi*f. . In the spring, the season of In lie, tho farmer is too apt to ovor estimi/te his own al>ilitv and the fertil ity-otf! liis land, and when too late, he find* f nrurdf ov •••• .rued n>v’ connnit ted t the cultiviltioil of acret, which had fur better have been left wile, or put in sorxe renovating crop. Band which, with the aid of Commercial fer tilize!, will prbducc only six or eight bushels of corn, and less than a half bole of cotton to tiie acre, will not pay nt present prices, or even if prices rule . higher. Some time ago we pub’jshc'' the results of certain experiments, show ing that in proportion as the yield to each acre was increased, the c</st was reduced, and consequently tiie BFiJlt, thill, liiolv a. —.jut**!, Li fho contest for the prize acre or corn, the premiflra off*'re l by tho At lanta Constitution was awarded to the man who produced 17i!W bushels ou one acre at a cost of s').7o. TKie average yield in Georgia is 11. bushels per acre, and fho average cost is about $5.00. Tho conclusion is obvious. If tlm addi tional $-1.70. which is ttte-dilToreiiee be tween $0.70 and $5.00, produced such a vast increase, purely it was a good in* vrytmont. llut in all probability this did not repriKv.it the eut-ira investment.

Answer' 4.—ln Bulletin 21 of the Texas Experiment Station, there is re ported the results of a sories of experi ments in feeding pigs with cottonseed, and tho conclusion reached, is, that no matter how prepared, Whether boiled or roasted, cattouseod fed to pigs will produce sickness and death. The fettle 1 sond was a little less injurious thau the roasted, tho latter being almost as fatal As the raw meal. Tho cottonseed was not fed alouo, but formed only a part of the ration. In from ax to'eight weeks tho first symptoms of .sickness appeared, the animals became dull uud moping, aud lost appertte. In 1$ to lid hours they became rest loss, staggering in their gait, breathiug labored, sight defective skin showing ro.l.Ush iudarnatiou. Tlie fatal cases all gh rwod "thumps”—spas modic breathiug.

Question o.—l have soirla fresh land between two ponds. I have planted it three years in cotton; it does not exactly rust, but sheds loaves and forms dry up some. lum thinking of using. kuinit on it. What quantity per acre ought to bo used, and how applied, alone or with ftcidy The laud makes plenty of weed. Is there any objections to using salt with compost composed of lot manure, cottonseed and acid phosphate? Answer 9.— Your laud being between two ponds would indicate, perhaps, that there is too much water in the soil for cotton. Oould the* ponds be drained, or at least considerably lowered, the soil would probably be remedied. If the in jury results from a saturated subsoil, the application of kalnit will not remedy it. If caused by a deficiency of potash i:i the soil, the remedy is plain. To ouch neve use 50 pounds of kalnit mixed with 150 pounds of potash. Should this application produce a marked improve ment in the condition of tiie cotton this year, you may feel sure that the trouble has boon caused by a deficiency of pot ash in the soil, and next year increase the kuinit. There is no objection, but decided advantage in using salt in the C' impost heap. Tho compost, though, 41mt yon prop we to mnko, will be defi cient in p >tah, and I would recommend the addition of kuinit to make it a com plete fertiiizar.—State Agricultural Do dart incut.
