THURSDAY, MAR. 25, 1S97.
The report of the ilood along
the Mississippi is somethingapall
ing, aud although our country is
far less productive than the Miss¬
issippi valley, we should be thank¬
ful that our lot is as well as it is.
The fight and the inauguration
are both in the past, and there
will be nothing to entertain the
public for the next three years,
unless, peradventure, Dan Stuart
should arrange to have another
mill in Nevada.
T- In his inaugural address Presi¬
dent McKinley had a good deal to
Bay about the starting up of mills
and factories, and in less than
two weeks the biggest mill ou
record was established in Nevada,
j i which the head blacksmith
made about $40,000 in one hour.
Inaugural addresses are not always
in vain.
Mention was made last week
that Hon. J. Pope Brown, presi¬
dent of the state agricultural
society, declares Georgia farms‘to
be in better condition now than
f >r years. TheJ agricultural pa¬
pers (those of the cities who never
saw a cotton row in all their
lives!) are declaring that Dr.
Brown is a gold bug aud a liar.
It is stated as a fact that Ne¬
vada’s financial standing has been
greatly injured by her recent prize
fight legislation. A Nevada enter¬
prise tried a few days ago to secure
a 7. per cent loan from Wall street,
but was turned down with the curt
replv that the banks had no mousy
~*To risK in that state even at 100
per cent interest. That is one
point at least against the fistic
art.
In reporting the effect of the
prize fight upon the city of Atlanta,
the Constitution reported that all
business was suspended for the
time being and that the city was
shaken to the core. This declar¬
ation was, of course only an over¬
flow of enthusiasm on the part of
the esteemed mama Constitution,
aud the other papers in the state
are having a jolly time now guy¬
ing her for the break.
Bibkop Turner is now possibly
beginning to realize that he made
himself disgusting last week in his
plea to the negroes to go armed
for defense against lynching mobs,
but he will feel it more than ever
before he is done with the matter.
The newspapers aud tho reading
public are roasting him, but we
predict that the intelligence of his
own race and color will have a
thing or two to say to him later.
They ought to.
In discussing the musical tal¬
ents of the members of McKinley’s
cabinet the papers declare that
John Sherman possesses the least.
It, is told of him that while he was
campaigning in his state last fall,
one of the village bands greeted
him with the air, “I am looking
for the bully of the town,” upon
which he thanked them for start¬
ing him off with so inspiring an
air, which he recognized as “The
Star Spangled Banner.” Suppose
Mr. McKinley didn’t make his
selections with a view to starting
up a choir, though it is said that
others of his members are more or
less musical.
The populists have made appli¬
cation to Speaker Reed to be recog¬
nized with appointments on some
of the important committees of
the house, reciting that they
polled near two million votes in
the late election and were there¬
fore entitled to be felt, but the
Speaker turned them off with the
statement that he classed them
with the democrats, and that they
could share part of the honors he
saw fit to dish out to that party.
The populists are mad] because
they are to be thus slighted, and
the democrats are mad that Reed
is trying to force the populists in
their pew. Thus the republicans
are proving themselves deserving
of all the mean things that have
ever been said about them.

Ths Importance of Thorough Preparation
for Planting Alily .tilvncittad— Fall

Harcli a llusy Month.
Department of Ac-iuculturk.
Atlanta, March 1, 1897.
As was predicted and expected tnc ■
rainfall in February lias been very ;
which in view of the , .
heavy, previous ,
deficiency is fortunate for tho coming !
year’s crops. But the recent coutinaed
weather lias somewhat delayed the '
wet
filial preparations for planting. Where I
there has been thorough fall aud winter i
plowing the farmer is relieved of i
much of ftie vexation and worry of hur- ,
riod preparation now. In such cases it
is a comparatively easy matter to com
all preliminary work.
FLOWING LANDS WHEN TOO WET.
The gr&it. danger is that farmers, who
did not tako advantage of the fiue day.-:
Of the fall and winter to keep the plows
going, may be tempted now In view to p:ovv of
their lands when too wet.
the short time boforo the crops are to be
planted their anxiety to get their lands
In condition to receive the seed, is par¬
donable, but no morh grievous mistake
was ever made than that of plowing
when the soil is reeking with moisture.
On the light sandy lands we may ven
turn sooner after heavy rains than on
our stiller clay soils, but even there tho
greatest discretion should be exercised.
We know the temptation, when time is
pressing and the sun shining, to do this
work at ail hazards, but we have seen
fields so injured by such injudicious
plowing that tho effects could not bo
eradicated for months afterwards, and
the crops showed a corresponding falling
off. It were better to reduce the in¬
tended area and put the remainder in
thorough condition than to hasten over
a greater number of acres at such man¬
ifest injury to tho land and loss to the
crops, not" to mention tho additional
annoyance and worry in the subsequent plowed
cultivation of such injudiciously
fields.
MARCH IS A BUST MONTH
with the farmer in many other respects
besides the preparation of the laud.
There are terraces and ditches to be kept
in order. After each heavy rain they
should bo examined, all breaks repaired
and all weak points strengthened. All
fences not in repair should bo righted,
tho fence rows cleared out and the trash
burned. The growth from successive
years should not be allowed to accumu¬
late, nor should it be allowed to encroach
further and further each year on the
cultivated land. The fences and fence
corners should bo kept- clean. By this
plan we not only preserve an appearance
of greater neatness, Imt many destruc¬
tive insect" and Jnugus agents, which
are becoming a menace to our agricul¬
ture, are checked.
FALL PLANTED GRAIN.
!f the fall planted grain is not vigor¬
ous bnt shows a silky, yellow appear¬
ance, it should receive a top dressing of
some nitrogenous fertilizer, nitrate of
soda or cotton seed meal, the former to
bo applied just before a rain, from 50 to
100 pounds to the acre; the latter at any
convenient time, about 200 pounds to
the acre.
VINEYARDS, ORCHARDS AND GARDENS
nlso need looking after. All prunings,
p 'emulated trash and refuse should be
(.athered up and burned, for the same for
reason that we destroy these harbors
insect life and fuirgns diseases m our
fence corners. The fruit grower and
gardener should wage a perpetual war¬
fare on these enemies, which too often
are allowed to gain a firm foothold be¬
fore we are aware of their presence, and
then the troubles and expenses from
their depredations are inevitable. A
touch of
WHITEWASH
hero and there, as opportunity occurs,
should be also regarded as one of the
duties of this early spring month. It is
astonishing the power which is in one
barrel of lime, to add to the cheerfulness
and the neatness of a farm homo, and
its eft'eet goes through the entire year.
It is a purifier as well as a beautifier.
Where stables, out houses and even the
dwelling receive a thorough coat of
whitewash, inside and ont, once a year,
sanitary conditions are much improved
aud the risk from contagious and infec¬
tious diseases much lessened. Through¬
out the state March is the
CORN planting month.
In the more southern sections planting
is already under way. Necessarily the
most favorable time for this work in
any particular locality must vary some¬
what with the season, aud with local
conditions as to drainage, exposure,
quality of the soil, etc. Well drained,
heavy lands with a southern exposure
aro known to warm up more rapidly,
and are therefore more suited for early
planting than where opposite conditions
prevail, aud of course the planting sea¬
son opens earlier in the southern than
in the northern sections of the state.
Methods of planting also vary with
these conditions. We have found,
however, that ou the greater portion of
our ordinary corn laud the double foot
plow does the most effective work. Pre¬
supposing that the land has been thor¬
oughly prepared and laid off, (and on*
less the laud is rich or very highly ma¬
nured it is veil to give plenty of dis¬
tance), we would plant in the water
furrow, taking care not to cover the
seed too deeply. Deep covering will do
for later planting, early corn should be
covered lightly. The double foot plow,
if properly adjusted, does very satisfac¬
tory work, leaving a slight ridge on the
seed and a small furrow on each side
which will protect the seed from any
excess of water settling ou them. By
this method the plants will come up
slightly below the surrounding surface,
aud at each plowing a little dirt can be
thrown towards them until, when tire
final ‘'laying by” comes, the field is left
practically strongly level. This was the method
so advocatad by David Dicksr \
and from w ! -ich he realized such won
derfnl resul He maintained that as
the greatest danger to our corn crop was
cur usual summer drouth, all our effort*
should be directed to protecting it
against planted such a contingency, aud that
corn so and cultivated was ruuoh
less liabi* to injury from this cause than
when planted on a high bed. Of course
on bottom or moist lands the opposite
plan should be followed.
GRASSES AND CLOVERS.
March is tho favorite month for
seediug grasses aud clovers,
mentioned in February’s Talk these
may, if preferred, be sowu on the
growing graiu fields, in which case a
