They need the toning up of the stomach and digestive organs, which a course of Hood's Sarsaparilla will give them. It also purities ami enriches the blood, cures that distress after eating and internal misery only a dyspeptic can know, creates an appetite, overcomes that tired feeling and builds up and sustains the whole physical system. It so prompt ly and efficiently relieves dyspeptic symp toms and cures nervous headaches, that it seems to have almost “a magic touch.” Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is the best—in fact the One True Blood Purifier.

Qmtrrio.’f.—H.w deep should wheat be covered to produce the best crop? Some of my neighbors argue iu favor of shallow and some of deep coveriug. Which i considered the best, a bearded or a beardless wheat? Answer. Many experiments have been made to find out the proper depth to j,::uit, wheat, and it lias been demon strati il that from and toii’-.f inches is the depth to insure the largest yield. Some prefer the beardless and others prefer the bearded wheat. I thiuk the bearded varieties suit our soil and climate best, but are not the most popular in this state. —State Agricultural Department. To Prevent a Cow From Sacking Uerself. Question. —Do you know any way to prevent a cow from sucking herself? Answer.—Many plans have been sug gested to put a stop to this bad habit that some cows have. The lxest plan I have heard of is this, viz: put a pair of straight liames ou the cow’s neck, just iu front of the shoulders, aud another pair just back of her horns. Nail to these two pairs of liames, two stout strips of wood on each side of her neck. This will effectually prevent her from sucking herself, and will not prevent her grazing. An animal addicted to this habit had better be fattened and butchered for beef, for in ail probability whenever you removo the side bars you will find the habit as strong as ever.— State Agricultural Department. riantiug <Mllmi;i’f. Question. —I am preparing to plan" several acres of laud in winter cabbages for northern markets. The laud is fair, sandy loam, witli good, red clay subsoil. Now tell mo what is the best commer cial fertilizer lean use, how much ought I to use per acre, where can I get it and what will it cost mo cash? Answer. —Cabbages are very gross feeders and need a fertilizer rich in all the elements of plant food. Well rotted s' lblo manure is tDo best fertilizer for cabbages, as indeed it is for almost all plants. In tlio absence, however, of stable manure, commercial fertilizers are used very successfully, You wauj . mixturo carrying 7 to 8 pc-r cent of i,itrogeu, 6 to 7 per cent of potash and 7 to 8 per cent of available phosphorto acid. You should uso 1,500 to 3,000 pounds to the acre, broadcasted, and from 400 to 500 pounds iu the drill. You can got sucli a fertilizer put up by any of the guano factories, and it will cost you iu the neighborhood of $4 ) r. ton. Don’t forget to tear that clay nub soil nil to pieces, if you want to main, fine cabbages.—State Agricultural De partment. Fertilizing Proi>trlina of Pottonsotul Question. —I haven quantity of iw, ton seed, for which I am offered ii o'j per ton. Will it pay me to so-opt that ■price, or are the seed more valuable to the farm as a fertiliz-r? please tell me the fertilizing pi portios in a tun of seed und their value. Answer.— I hnvo always endeavored to convince the farmers of Georgia that it would not pay them to sell tlmir cot tonseed at $7.00 per ton (10U cents a bushel). The haul of the seed must lie counted against the farmer, and cannot be estimated at loss than SI.OO per ton, leaving him s!> 00 per ton—or less than t) cents per bushel. A.i meal is selling for about $lB 00 per ton, you w.ll bo giving three tons of seoil for one of meal. J jet us compare tho value of three tons of seed to a ton of meal, in fertilizing properties: Pbospho- ivt- Nitrogen. rio Add. ndu His. ltis. His. In a ton of \vKola seed. (11.4 2U.4 36.4 lu three toils lsi.B (>l.B 70.8 Phospho- Pot- Nitrogeu. ri>- Add. nsh. ibs. lbs, lbs. In a ton of C. S.,.Meal. 141.0 ftO. 30. Thus you see that the three tons of seed contain of nitrogen 43.6 pounds, of phosphoric acid 5.3 pounds, and of pot ash lit. 3 pounds, more than tho ton of cottonseed meal, worth in the aggregate $6.40. When you sell your seed do not do it for less than 15 cents per bushel or SIO.OO per ton, for when you sell for less you ore simply giving away valuable fertilizing material, and not only giving it away, but furnishing a team ami hauling it to the purchaser yourself. In tho above calculation no valuo has boon giveu to tho mechanical effect of the whole seed when usod ns a fertilizer, though every farmer knows that in use lug tho whole seed he adds considerable humus to tlie soil, and renders stiff clay soils more friable aud easier of cultiva tion.—State Agricultural Department. To Destroy the “Leaf Folder/* Question. —I have a number of vines that are affected with "Leaf Folder.” What will provent them, aud will they do much damage to vines this late iu tho season? I also have some vinos af fected in a manner that I do not under stand. I send you some sample leaves. Is it not the “Rose Chafer?” What shall I do to remedy tho matter? Answer. —The best method of des troying the "Leaf Folder” is to crush them suddenly within the leaf with both hands. To prevent their appear ance, however, is less troublesome, pro vided the neighboring grape growers unite in the effort. The chrysalis is formed within the folds of the leaf, and by going over the vineyard iu the autumn, before the leaves fall, and care fully picking and destroying all those that are folded aud crumpled the sup ply for the following year will be cut cff. This remedy, though very effect ve, will avail but little unless all "111 a neighborhood unite in it. I do not drink the "Leaf Folder” will injure Postponed Sale.
