Tillman & Brown FITTERS OF FEET Abruzzi Rye the Best Winter Cover Crop For the South (From The Progressive Farmer.) Abruzzi rye as a combination win ter cover crop and grazing crop for the South has no equal. And when planted in the cotton fields imme diately after the first picking, this rye quickly makes a heavy growth, and by December or January is ready for grazin?. Ordinarily two or three months’ grazing can be had before time to plow under the rye for spring planting of other crops. Two pur poses are thus filled: First, a cheap and nutritious gren crop is provided for the cattle during the winter months; and second, a cover crop prctectB the land from washing and teaching by hard winter rains and conserves the fertility of the soil. For cover crop purposes only Abruzzi rye ig the most valuable crop we have for light lands and for con ditions where leguminous crops will not thrive or where the land is re quired for spring planting before the clover crops have attained a full growth. Vetches, clover and other leguminous crops are also good for cover crop purposes, but the fact that these crops in tlje South do not make a heavy winter growth before time for plowing makes them of less value than aheavicr, earlier growing crop. Compared to native varieties of rye, Abruzzi makes at least double as much cover crop gworth. After many years of experiment on our own farms, and from experiments con ducted by hundreds of the larger farmers all through the South, wo are convinced that Abruzzi rye is the best winter cover crop for gener:.I pur poses in the South. It is easy tc plant, grows on all kinds of soil, thrives in the poorest sandy soils where other crops fall, requires no inoculation, makes a heavy early growth, conserves humus in the soli, prevents leaching and washing soil by the winter rains, and restores plnat food to the soil. LEGAL ADVERTISEMENTS I “BOLL WEEVIL* BURLEY HE PORTS THAT SUMTER FARMERS ARE WAT BEHIND IN OF.TTNG C HOP TO MABKET. The Albany Herald says: According to Mr. C. B. Burley, wh has Juat returned from Sumter coun ty, the farmers of that county ar being seriously handicapped In gather ing their cotton on accunt of an acute scarcity of labor. Many fields are white with cotton, very little of which has been picked, and pickers are not to be had, due to so many negroes having gone north. Mr. Burley re ports that much of the cotton has fallen from the bolls, and some of It Is sprouting on the ground. Sumter ratted almost as much cotton this year as she did before the advent of the boll weevil, and with the vreat exodus of negro labor, tht formers up there are solely put to It.
