South Us n'gia, under proper conditions,
aa it delights ill a 1 lit, *.i:, ' ..in.
which, however, must not bo underlaid

Tho subsoil must be penetrable by the
roots of the plant, which sometimes

termed) or alfalfa will to t thrive upon
It With the abovo conditions of a v -11
drained sandy loam, with a j • run ah e
subsoil, you are l-niy t . raise alfalfa
successfully, provL :d you follow direc
tions If your soil i, 1 tb-ient iu lime,
it will be essential to ra.vess to anpiv a
liberal dressing, say ! H) to 130 bushels
to tiie acre, as luci . will not do well
on land deficient in 'll’-; fertilizer. In
addition f i 1 imo, you will need a com
plete fertilizer, rich in nil: ,;en, potash,
and phosphoric acid, and it must bo ap
plied with a liberal hand, as alfalfa
will give ,t very poor n turn on land
that is not rich in all the ingredients.of
plant food. With your land now liiuhly
enriched, break it and subs >il it as deep
as possible, tiio deeper tho bettor. Then
harrow and reharrow until you have it
thoroughly pulr-.v r. vl and free from
clods. You are now ready for planting,
and I would urge you not to broadcast
the seed, ns is so often recommended,
for if you <• , the weeds and grass aro
almost sure to choke out the yoaujt al
falfa and you give up the experiment in
despair. Point iu rows kb to 24 inches
apart, and use from kO to 23 pounds of
seed to the acre. You know the im
portance of a good stand iu any crop,
and with alfalfa you want the plants
thick enough to hold their own against
tho grass and we e Is xvb . h ore sure to
spring up with them. Plant about tho
last of Septemb-r or tho last of Febru
ary. As soon as the plants are up well
commence the cultivation, eradicating
all weeds and grass and keeping the
ground mellow by frequent stirrings.
Cut when 13 to Id inches high, and
after that cut as often as necessary, not
allowing it to go to seed, mid it will
soon cover the ground and keep down
the weeds. For hay it should bo cut
when the first flowers appear. It should
improve up to tho fourth y ir, mi l after
that will yield you four 1 i five tons of
the best of hay, annually, for many
years, provided, of com -, that you
keep np the fertility *>f lio land and
ke-'p out lh" weed? The hay is equal

Question. —Enclosed find some worms
and a moth which produces them. The
worms have seriously injured our cab
bages ami turnips, earing off the tops.
Flense name them and give a remedy
against them.
Answer.—The insect is called tho
Cnbl ure Plusia. It works groat injury
to many garden crops, but especially to
cabbages and turnips. Tho female moth
(dark gray in color, with a bright spot
near the middle of each front wing,)
deposits her ,-*-. gs either singly or in
clusters on the upper surface of tho
cabbage leavey Tho eggs sent batch,
and the young worms begin at onco to
devour tho leaves and to boro small,
irregular holes iu tho cabbage head In
this section there are several broods of
this destructive insoot each season. The
moths usually fly at night, but, may
sometimes be seen flitting about during
a cloudy day. To get rid of them, dust
upon the plants pirethrum, (insect pow
der) mixed with three timos its bulk of
flour. They may ttiso bo destroyed by
spraying with kerosene emulsion.—State

[ oiiuuk to tiio liuntiui tonoit?
Answer. — Fortunately thoro aro hut
| few plants that cannot bo handled with
I impunity. The poisoning, or poison
| oak, a* climbing vino, is ono of these.
| Few persona can handle this plant with-
I out finding thnm-iolvas poisonod, and
s, mo are so susceptible to it that if they
even pass near it they tiro affected.
Then tlicni is tho poison sumac, tho sup
of which, getting on tho skin, will cause
painful blisters. Some varieties of
mushrooms are also very poisonous,
even to handle and causa death
if eaten. There are quite a num
ber of plants that aro poisonous if
eiitin, and doubtless many mysterious
cases of death among cattle or li'orses
might ho twod to this cause.—State

Souvcps <.f i Bi tiliKlng Ilatorluh,
Question. Please give mo a few
hints on fertilizers and the best way to
select thorn. £ must confess to de
plorable ignorance on tills important
[ subject, and afteu I am confused by tho
multiplicity **f term.; u.-cdiit designating
tiio diit'oreut plant foods. I have til-
must decided to try mixing ray fertil
izer;-: at homo, bat am somewhat at. a
loss ns to tin* best brands to buy for lie
purpose. Would I run any risk in buy
ing tiio con. c.ntrnted materials, or are
they of uniform value as to contents
and availability? In buying the fertil
izers already mixed is there any sure
wav by which 1 can at least partially
; judge of their merits?
Answtck.— It is tho law of Georgia
that each manufacturer register with
the State Department of Agriculture
| the sources from which his nitrogen is
, derived. This Ims a more important
bearing on our success or failure with
different crops than most farmers aro
- aware. Before purchasing any com
j merciat fertilizers farmers should caro
! fully inform themselves as to tho sources
from which the throe principal fertil
izing elements contained in them are
1 derived and therir availability for the
; different crops tn bo grown. The fol
i lowing important facts aro condensed
from a valuable bulletin by Professor
Vorhoes, and we trust are iu such form
as to arrest the attention of thinking
farmers, and also aid them in selecting
the host and most suitable materials for
the various crops to which they are to
j bo applied:
