properly atteuded to. By the usual
jmethod of ainKing aud dryinj? by hand
tne'Tiay is uoi saved in i?ood condition,
aßd muchu if. is often lost. This plan
ig also slow* and \ftearLsome when so
much othe/ wnrlc is pressing.
Answer —The SoaMh gronndpeas
form their nuts very* biose to the crown
of the plant, and therefore if they are
barred "off with an ordinary plow they
may be ogllaff qp Tjv hai.i and all, or
allTof the nuts will ciifid the
vin#»s. These must then be
wind rows, roots up, nuts on top. Allow
them to stand until next day, and then
st*ck around a pole, taking care to have
a layer of rails on the ground to protect
; the lower part of the stack from damp-
Less, and also to leave air space around
the pole sufficient jfor ventilation. In
making ie stack the placing
should be reversed, nuts Within, vines
without. When the stack is finished
cap carefully to prevent injury from
! rgin. In about three weeks the nuts
will be ready for picking off by hand,
and the hay cured sufficiently to be
stored. Grouudpeas belong to the fam
ily of legumes, and like all of their kind,
the tops are good for forage.
For other varieties than the Spanish
it will be necessary to use a plow made
especially to run under tlie viues and
cut the top root, when it will be fouud
comparatively easy to puli the viues up
without loosening the nuts. But if the
soil is very heavy, even this will not
answer. In such a case run a turning
plow near the viues first, and in this
furrow run a sweep, which has had one
wing turned up to act as a bar or land
slide, and the other flattened aud made
sharp to run under the vines. The gath
ering, curing and stacking can then be
managed as above.—State Agricultural
Department.
Firm class Compost. Heap*.
Question. —ln the intervals of leisure
from more pressing work, I am anxious
to put up some firstclass compost heaps
for use when my spring crops are
planted. I nave tried mixing kaiuit
and superphosphate with the manure
with success, what .1 waut to know is,
will caustiolime be equally effective 111
helping to preserve the manure from
wasting until such time as I may wish
to use it ?
Answer —One objection to using
caustic lime in a manure or compost
heap is, that after fermentation begins
the lime has a-tendency to cause she es
cape of ammonia. This might b% in a
measure, prevented by covering the
heap closely with earthy and packing
down. Lime also tends to convert the
available nitrogen of manure into less
desirable forms, and although, after
the lime is* Applied iy thd soil, this loss
is in a measure mad* up 4pT Jjy the
power of the lime to promote nunifica
tion in the soil, we do not think it
fully compensates for the first loss.
Linie shonid never be used in connec
tion with a superphosphate, because it
will convert its phosphoric acid, into in- •
soluble forin. Therefore we would ad
vise the continued use of the superphos
phate and kaiuit rather than the lime.
The kaiuit will arrest the* formation of
ammonia aud the superphosphate will
prevent its escape. They also supply
potash ami phosphoric acid, in which
the manure is somewhat deficient. It
is much more important, however, that
the manure heap be properly construc
ted, than that we invest in expensive
materials to prevent the escape of its
valuable plant food elements. In build
ing the manure heap, if we are careful
to exclude the air as far as possible
and to keep the moisture uniform, that
iS not having the heap too wet at one
time and too dry at another, we will
couser.vfi the valuable*''fertilizing con
stituents of the mass aud enable thef
manure to go through a uniform fer
mentation, Which will not only increase
its own value, but prevent it from act
ing injuriously to the soil. • The ques
tidn of properly managing farm yard
manure is oue that has received the
most careful study, and it is found that
the most effective methods are the sim
•
plest, those which involve the smallest
intelligent expenditure of time, money
aud labor. Any unnecessary handling
is expensive and we should plan so as
to secure a maximum return at a mini
mum cost 111 all the it ms.—State Agri
mutual Department.

yiew of such oonfttotftHr it is
only fair to state bath sidf*4 of the ques
tion and leave each individual to choose
whether it suits his special needs or
tchetber it is better to its coltr'a

one catting is always certain Ol*e

ior an almost certain yield lor many
successive years. ■'
On the other hand, among tlie disad
vautages of having a permanent field
of Johusou grass, ate: Its certainty to
■opfead, both by underground stems and
by its inillious of seeds, which, al
lowed to mature, are scattered in every
direction. The last, may be entirely
prevented by mowing clean as often as-,
the plants show a disposition to perfect
seed, three or four times during4ts.seS
son T)f growth. If _ the field
this grass is is .m% measure iso
lated from the'rest of the farm, aud if
t£o plow is put iiito it, whereby a oare-
Lesif hand may transport the
from one pari „w*the farm to-another,
there is little danger of propagating it
in this way. Another disadvantage is
that, whiie Johnson grass, if cut at the
proper stage, that is, jtut after it has
bloomed and is ready to v form heads,
will make splendid hay, if the cutting
is delayed beyond this period the hay
becomes tough and woody and stock,
will not eat it Still another objection
is that it is very difficult to eradicate it.
Once it has taken possession of a field,
it must be given -o,ver to it Without
question. While under some conditions
this might constitute a very serious ob
jection, under others it might be re
garded as a positive advantage. The
hay, when cut at the proper time aud
properly cured, is fide, the yield is cer
tain and generally abundant. In view
of these facts, if one hag a field suited
for its cultivation, why not let it take
possession and thus secure at little cost
and trouble a nutritious hay, the de
mand for which is never fully supplied.
We know some intelligent farmers who
are enthusiastic supporters of Johnson
grass when planted under the above re
strictions. — State Agricultural Depart

GermTii, Crim«)n ami J»pitn Clover.
Question. —Does German or Crimson
clover improve the land as much as the
Red or White clover? Is the gathering
of nitrogen the only benefit which the
clovers render the land? Please tell me
something about Japau clover. I have
heard that it will improve the land,
furnish good pasturage aud that it does
not require as. much manure or the same
care as the other varieties.
Answer. —The Crimson clover sends
its roots down deep in the earth, but be
iug an annual it probably does not im
prove the land as much as the biennial
Red clover. White clover, though a le
gume, does not benefit the laud as much
as either the Scarlet or the Red clover,
the roots not penetrating the earth to
the same depth as the others. Where a
green crop is needed for turning uuder
in the early .spring, the Scarlet clover is
the beat of the three, as if makes a very
>-h9avy growth iu the late winter aud
early spring. The clovers aud other le
gumes not only gamier nitrogen for fu
ture crops, bat their strong, long roots
penetrate the subsoil and loosen it up,
|hus rendering the succeeding crop less
liable to suffer eflhar from excessive
rainS or frdm
decaying roots furnish hainus to the
Japan clover (Lespedezt striata)
belongs to the family of legumes and is
an annual. On poor land its growth is
low and spreading, but on good land it
will grow from 15 to 20 inches tall and
yield’s, fine crop of excellent hay. It
seems to prefer dry clay soils and will
grow on lands of this character that are
too poor for the otiier clovers. It is a
good renovator, sending its roots deep
into the ground and holding its own
against all other plants. As far as
tested itdoes not succeed well ou sandy
lands. I advise, its Dlautiug on thin
hillsides, where it can be pastured dur
ing the summer* jtfl stock being fond of
it. Sow in the spring, broadcasting
from 15 to 18 pounds of seed to the
acre. —State Agricultural Department.
Ua© Rye.
Question. —Is there any cheap crop
that I can cover my lands with during
the winter? I know it is a mistake to
leave them bare, but clover and vetch
are expensive crops, and unless the laud
is rich and all conditions suitable they
often fail. I want something within
the reach of an ordinary farmer, aud
which I can take off iu the spring iu
time for other crops. /
Answer.—For your purpose I think
you could use nothing better than rye.
It is of course au injury to the land to
remain bare for several months, subject
to the leaching aud washing of our
heavy winter rains. This is the chief
reason why cotton culture is so injuri
ous to laud. The crop takes from the
§oil less plant food than any of the sta
ple crops of the couutry, but the oofctou
fields beiug left bare of vegetation, and
subjected for the entire winter to the
washing aud leaching of heavy rains,
are rapidly deprived of some elements

for though it will produce a flue growth
of canes, the syrup made from them will
neither taste as /well nor be as light in

plied. Break jjtour land deep and thor
oughly; open furrows 4 feet apart;
apply in these furrows 500 pounds of a

stalks into lengths of about 2 feet and
letting them lap each other in the plant

Question —Wi«l olive trees grow iu
South Georgia? Where can trees be
bought, aud at what price? How old
will the trees be before beginning' to
bear?
Answer.—The olive tree requires for
its best development a deep, calcareous,
well drained soii, and will not grow on
wet land. As far as climate and soil are
concerned, there are doubtless place# in
South Georgia, particularly near the sea
coast, where the olive would grow and
bear fruit, but 1 do not think they would
prove profitable. There are thousands
of-acres in the coast valleys of Califor
nia planted in oTß|e trees which prom
ise an abundant yield, and,
some orchards are bearing well now,
but even there, with soil and climate
peculiarly suited to them, they do not
prove as profitable as some other crops.
Trees for setting out should be three
years old, as they are thep teugher apd
more apt $0 live thajr the one and two
year old trees. You would probably
have to obtain them from California, or
import them from Europe, as I know of
no nursery at the east or south Where
they can be bought In California they
begin to bear at five to six years of age,
aud continue in bearing for a long term
of years. They should be planted not
less than 30 feet each way, and great
care should be taken to preserve the
roots from injury. Even if you have
the proper soil and climate, I would ad
vise against your planting more than
an experimental plat!—State Agricultu

Answer. Among the woods yoa

ways the best. If you could possibly
get cedar posts they would be the best,
but aside from cedar there is in South
Georgia no batter wood for posts than
the heart of a sound yellow pine. A
good aud economical treatment to make
the posts more durable is to apply to
them a heavy coat of tar, covering ev

Answkb —Tliero is a prevalent belief

Which any one by close observaffoi*«cati
detect. When a portion of a growing f
crop, sutfh-aa ootton, is struck by light

current that render it barren aud un
productive for a short time. This con
! ditton has been noticed by every farmer, j
I suppose, but continued observation
would also have shown that the stricken
Spot gave no evidence of sterility the.;
following year. By that time, what
ever hartjf had beenjbmo to the land by

Question.—Please give me some in
formation regarding the ringing of j
pigs. What should be the size of the
ring, and of what materi l should it be j
made? How long can the ting remain
in the nose without injury?
Answer.— Rings are put in the noses
of pigs or hogs to prevent their rooting.
The ring should be p aced in the tough
cartilage at the top of the nose, through
which a hole must be punched to re
ceive it. The ring should be from l
to inches in diameter, aud should
be made of either steel or copper. It
can remain in the nose of the hog dur
ing its life without injury. Should you
turn the tvnimaj on a field of potatoes or
groundpeas, where you want him to
rost, the rin§ must be removed. Where
hogs are kept on grass or clover through
the summer they should always be
ringed, as otherwise they do much
damage by rooting for worms or grass
roots.—State Agricultural Department.

Question. —I enclose a plant for iden
tification. It came up in my garden,
where I planted a paper of lettuce seed.
It is something like the horse nettle, as
you see. Is it good for anything?
Answer —The weed is what is known
as the Buffalo Bur (solatium rostra*
turn). Its untjyejhomeFis the western
plains north of Mexico, whence it ha 9
traveled slowly towards the oast, until
now it is found in every state in the
Union, though still quite rare in Geor
gia. This plant differs from the horse
nettle in having yellow flowers, instead
of white, and bears thorny burs, in
stead of smooth, yellow berries like the
nettle. It is an annual and propagated
only by the seed, which are not as nu
merous as in most troublesome weeds.
It is absolutely good for nothing and
you should destroy every plant you Ree,
before the seeds mature auG are carried
to other places by stacking to any ani
mal kkat may brush againsfcthem.—State
