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. * J 011 iino. l Gra«*. Question. —With all th|| lights before you, would you advise a farmer to plant grass for hay? is probably no hay ' ' '' ni^Mki>u. jUlg^. 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 vapioa to eoojp one eisfc.

All through the early spring, the summer aud late fail it resnouds to rains If these are abuud. ant three or four cuttiugs are possible. iViil aimer adverse otrbumstanse one catting is always certain Ol*e set. therefore, it may be denertied on 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 ment. 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 food, particularly of nitrogen. from 3 to 4 packs of rye to I to 15 you will pro > you Will have pa-rm 4 through the ldte fad arid wint*r for air voar stock; anti you will have-tHhfffien fttpb bki to trim abief in the spring.

OfiVH Tffre* In 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.

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 ery portion of the post that goes in the ground, and for 6 oV 8 inches above the ground.

Answkb —Tliero is a prevalent belief that where the ground 11 struck by lightning it is rendere d sterile and un produefcive for years. This is an error Which any one by close observaffoi*«cati detect. When a portion of a growing f crop, sutfh-aa ootton, is struck by light | niug. all the plants which receive a j share of the electric current are, of course, killed, and it is possible, and ftyeu probable, that chemical changes l *€flke place iu the ground receiving the 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 the lightfling, will have bedti remedied by fclie forces of nature, which are con stantly at work, and the ground will be restored to it* original fertility. —Stato Agricultural Department. *'•*<*. 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. BurtAio liur. 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 Agricultural Department. # Standard VV«*leht«» of Farm Product.'*.
