The se.i-<">n is now at hand for sowing oats, tn bo quickly followed by the time for .sewing wh-at. For many years we have persistently advocated the oat sis tin' giaiu par < x.-eileneo for stock purposes in the south. Oats for work stock and grow ing stock and dairy slock ami corn for lea ad and for fattening purposes has been our tie nrj. But lite oat is not a grain t'. c v. II flourish and come to perfection eu the poorest fields "on the place," poorly p"< I. planted out of season, with nn rit; able seed and without, fertilizers. It is a common practice in many parts of the country to plant the best folds In cotton and corn -not alternately, but in cotton until th- '• will not produce satisfactorily, tlcn corn for a few y.ats, and then in j <.at<. Thu planting, or sowing, of the oats was done some time in the very late fall <>r c; rly winter, or when l.tr cotton was all gather-<1 and the corn all harvested and there wis nothing else to do. The pro- . .cc istcl in sowing one-half to one b i : el of such si ed oat.s as might be found In m 'tket Io the acre, and plowing them i.tvi'T with a six-imxi "twister or tuin shovel.” The crop was expected to grow and mature a best it. might, under such 1 conditions, and if it was winter killed or . 1)V ; O r t spring drought the I,eld 1 imse-f lilatlleh ss and wae Inclined to affirm (if not to swear) that It . . pay to sow oats."

W iflirm th it there should bo twice as , many bush.-Is of eats produced In the south j as of corn. We would not increase the | production of corn by a single bushel, [ on the contrary, we would rather decrease U .. area, in corn if not the gross product. Georgia, for inst.a tee. now produces about thirty-live million bushels of corn -riot, more than enough for home consumption and about S’-.'en or eight millions of bushels of oats. The state should produce twenty-live or thirty million bushels of corn and fifty of oats—the oats for work md yout g stock, ths corn for bri ad. I - nf] and beef cattle, f ->r dairy cows, etc. We advise a rotati »n as follows: First , ; second year, oati (and other small grain) and pe ts; uiird year, cot- ! ton. This would trie ie.tlly devote the I •-.::ne area <<ich to corn, cotton .in I cals and other small grain. We ■would fer tliiz • th-' < 'tit lightly; the oats liberally; the cotton liberally.

Ga.— I havo a cow tilts gives milk w’lii 11 appears to lie t.ll right when first milked. but after standing until the cream rises, it looks blue and watery, and has a salty taste; neither will it clabber solid, and consequently can scarcely get any butter from it. Am feed ing her, night and morning, one peek cot ton seed hulls, three quarts wheat bran and two quarts cotton seed meal, witli a little salt added, moistened and well mix ed; she runs on grass during the day. J l ive been giving lief each morning for n week a tablespoonful of Barker's horse and cattle powders. Can you tell me what to do for her? She has no tippearanee of be ing sick in anv way. Iler call ;s about seven months old. though It was taken from her while quite young. Answer—ls you have other cows giving milk not similarly affected, then it is pre sumptive proof that the trouble is not in the food or water. It is pretty certain that it Is due to bacteriologcal fungus that have found access to the teats of this particular cow. For several days milk her carefully three times a day. and after earn milking, inject into each teat one or two teaspoonsful of a solution of two drams of hyposulphite of soda in a pmt of water. Also’ see that she gets nothing but pure water to drink. Sweeney(?) Mrs J C Bullard. Antoine.

Although we have Leaded it "sw ency.” we are by no me ms certain H it it is swecney. ) ou do not s is whether she i. lame or whether the plaee is sore. We ean only advise that tit'' swollen place be bathed with cold water half hour ala time three times a day. and after each bathing rub on a lotion made by dissolving ounce of acetate of lead in 1 quart of water. Do this until th" swelling is reduced. If there are places that do not reduce, but are swollen and soft, open them and let out the liquid. Then inject once da'ily a little of a lotion made by mixing one dram of chloride ol zine and one pint of water, if there is any tbic.’.tfning left after it heals rub on a mixture of 1 dram of biniodid-- of mercury and I ounce of lard. If the lump feels hard and solid make tin opening in its center two-thirds the depth; then roll up 2 grains of bichloride of mercury in tissue paper, ii.ne shaped, ami press it in to tlie bottom of tlie opening with a small, .smooth stick. Repeat lliis every third day. Blue Stoning Wheat. A. .1. Wilson. Clarksvilla, Tenn.— Any eoakuig of wheat in a strong solution ot blue-stone will prevent smut. Hut the easi est way is worth knowing.

(' e.like a species that, grows wild on the black prairie, soils in Alabama, where it is a nuisance, and has seed something like this, but. if I remember e n'rectly it. is a black !)• ml ami seed ,-tay enveloped in tho black diusk. Answer- 'l'hero are so many varieties of sorghum (non-sae.-harine) that are called chicken corn tli.it we are often in doubt. We think tlie variety you have was first distributed in this country under tho name "Egyptian Rice Corn;” .and then tho rural New Yorker, of New York, exploited it under the name of "Rural Branching Sor ghum.” Send a iiea.l of it to tiie above paper and ask the editor to tell you all about it. It is understood to boa valuable forage plant, “cutting and coming again r< peatedly." We have found that Hie seeds make a flour more nearly like wheat flour titan any sorghum we ever tried. The wild variety of which you write is really a pest, but is different from this. Cotton Estimates. W. W. Rainey, Elams. N. C. —I wish to say a word as to Mr. Neill - cotton r- p irt.

Wlio does Mr. Neill get Ids reports from; is it not often from some little cross roads storekeeper, who don't know a goo-1 crop when they see it? I have away of my own of estimating a cotton crop that seldom fails me. I have been at it for forty years. When cotton just begins to open, say first week in September, I go over my crop, select a place by eye whi h seems to be about an average place, step off ten steps and count the bolls—all that tire safe from fro;"; after counting a d z ii places add up the bolls in. all places count ed and divide by the number of places counted and I have the average for eieh square yard of my land in cultivation. Having counted so often, I find as my standard to go by twenty-one bolls to the square yard Is a':) average crop and <>w r or under this I estimate by per cent. This amount will pan out 750 pounds of seed cot ton per acre. If bolls are very small or extra large I allow for this and gue.-s accordingly. 1 have now growing what all my neighbors say by looking at the wee'. 1 to he the finest crop of cotton they ever saw In this section, and yet i know by actual count I shall gather one-llfth bis than last season on same land. I have stalks eight feet high with only two or three bolls and in some eases inot a single one to the stalk too wot in July before any fruit formed. Now I want you to establish a bureau of your own to get weekly reports from all Hie cotton belt by postals to bo mailed a certain day in < i"h week, and from these postal.-; you compile a report of your own and put in the space, now occupied by Riordan A- Co.'s cotton letter; have you,- correspondents selected from good reliable farmers or ginners and fry to give us as near facts ns possible. It need not cost you a cent, for there are tlmu-ands of farmers like myself who want to know only tho truth.

We expect to use corn for stove wood this winter in this section. Answer—We have let our correspondent have !>is say. and bo has said It well. Tho entire letter was referred to the edito-Mn chlef for oassienmont and the sue—es!:"'! on the first page (not print' d above) w is referred to tho httsim ss manager. Tile re mainder properly lr longs to the commer cial department. W ■ confess that wo take very little stock in these cotton estimates at this season of the year. \\ •• do not. know to wiiat extent. .Mr. Neill's corre spondents are reliable and informed. We have considered that such corresponds! ts are prettv good p:-.ietic.'il "guessors, ’ and they bi.' - their estimates largely on tlie consensus of judgment of the farmers themselves.

Mr. li 'ini-y’s letter Is of date September sth. and ho says that nearly all of tho cotton is open (In twenty miles ot too northern limit ot North Carolina, cotton). But that was not. tho .'.iso in maid." lo or ea at that date. Mr. Rainey ry pert - nentlv asks, "How ean u rain benefit cot ton when it Is m irly .ill open?” We agree with him.

Cotton Seed and Moles. E. J. MeCrfiry, Waco. Tex. I wish to US'- cotton seed to manure land to plant vl ri< next is it best to put In • land l i of December, or . |,j h< ating t K in? I put live seed . | st of December, ISU6 d plant a to m lons, and plow-d them only one U . !.d the mob - gave me much trouble. i'l believe tltey were attracted during l.ie winter to them. Are mob s fonder of live seed that) d- ad or 'heated seed? Ai i W< are not able to say wh< ther the mole prefers green or rotted cotton sed. We Would suppose that it prefers tne seund seed. You don't propose to uso cot ton seed alom as a manure for your straw hen i< s and bla< k icrries? W e would ad vise a mixture of J.twO pounds of acid phos phate, l,(itX) pounds of kainit and 75 bushels of cotton seed. Tins.- might be put up in a heap, thoroughly wetting tlie seed, and 'permitted to ferm-nt. We rather think lliat the kainit would destroy the palal •abletiess of tiie cotton seed.

Answer—We really do not know whether or no the seed of nut grim germinate and produce plants. It is a mooted question. We are inclined to the opinion that tiie seeds are eitiier produc' d to a very I mlted extent or they germinate, to ti very limited extent. If Hie e' eds wer. freely produc d, or eve n if those produced should freely and . erttiiniy germinate, we do not sei wiiat has pr.-V'-nted mu grass from becoming very common. AVe have been trying to get some seed for i-xpi rimetit.uioii. Pinkeye in Cows. j. C. G., I’rospect. Tenn., to Mrs. 1,. W. E., Columbus, Miss. Your cow Il ls wiiat we term pinkeye. '1 lie cows iu my neighborhood had this same last year. Their eyes run waler all tlie tin)''. The eve is perfectly white, like milk. Al ter aw<ekor t< n d ijs, if y<> ■ - ill ■ - b von ean see tin- pink spot in her eyes, it usually takes about three weeks for them to get well. 1 knew of two cows that were perfectly blind for two months. You win see no more of pinkeye after the weather gets cool. We found no remedy f or tho disease. Those that did nothing for them found t'iiai their cows’ eyes got well quicker than those that doctored. Answer I'inkeyo is a common mime ap plied 'to epizootic inllu'-nzi, (“epizooty”), which is a disease that does not .if ’.ek cloven-footed animals. Wo have studied Mrs. D. W. E’s. case since writing a reply to Iler inquiry and are now satisfied that the disease is enzootic ophthalmia, (not epizootic). Tlie following is the tri atm. til; Separate the sound from the diseased and ficin the pasturis or buildings where the malady appeared. Give tlie affected a strong purgative (salts, one to one and one half pounds nt one dose), followed by one ounce of saltpeter twice a <)aj. Place in a dark, quiet, dry building and keep a cloth over the eye, saturated with a solu tion of one dram each of nitrate of silver and carbolic acid, and ten grains of mor phia to a quart of distilled water. Blisters of cantharides may be applied to the cheeks or behind the ears. Knuckling of Colts’ Feet. I’ W. l.ever. It. Ga. AVhat should I do for my colt? Stands on toe of right forefoot, all right in balance of feet. 1 mean by standing on toe that it pitches forward or that his hoof does not come down as it should, flat on Hie ground, ('oil is aliout six weeks old mid is a very line one. Answer— Knuckling is a not uncommon defect of young foals and usually requires no treatment. Trim the toe of the foot short and put on a shoe with high heels, is about all that cat) be done for it. The defect is a partial dislocation of the fet lock joint. It has sometimes been relieved by putting tlm ankle and foot in splints, but It is not a reliable method of treat ment. Paralysis of Horse. Airs. S. ('. Collins, Taylor. Ala.—l have a horse (hat is so weak in the loins or hind quarters .somewhere that he is con tinually on his guard to keep from falling on making a short turn. lie often falls, and going down hill seems to require a much greater effort, to keep from falling. AVhen he runs he seems powerless to control his hindparts—'they staggering first, one way mid then the other. He is four years old; has been in this condition about, eight months; is hearty and seems perfectly sound with lite exceptions of the above. AVould bo very glad for information con cerning the. trouble and a remedy for same. Answer—Your horse hits paraplegia, or palsy of the hind limbs. It may be due to a blow on the back or from disordered digestion, or from tumors or parasites in the spinal cord, or from eating some pois onous plant, etc. Remove any possible cause that may be removable. It is very likely that the cause <s beyond reach of remedy. Give 1 dram of lluid extract of mix vomica, or 1 dram of the powdered nux vomica twice u day for a week. Then stop three days and then give as before for a week, ami so on. Cow Pox. R. C. R., Cartersville, Ga.—About two Weeks ago one of mv cow's terns began to get sore. The sores were about the size of a piniii'.-i-l at first, but they spread rap idly mid tiie s<"i|,a on some of them are a.s large as a quarter of a dollar. There sire hmd swollen lumps inside the terns, something like boils, but no pus comes from them. N.itiiine except the tents are alllicted. 1 wash them with cold water and have tried greasing them with axle grease, vaseline and lard mixed with a few drops of carbolic acid, but it sloes no good, sippsiren! ly. The flow of milk is mu diminished and appears to be good, though of course I'm not using it. Now another eo w is beginning to be af flicted the same way. Both cows are good milkers and in goo<l flesh. They have been on b'l'inuda pasture all sum mer mid ar.' fed twice a il.iv on shucks mid a mixture of cotton seed, corn meal mid brmt, moisbrnel with wil'T. They have been giving milk nearly five months. Can you tell me what is the trouble mid a remedy. Answer- We think it is quite prob il l'' that your cows have what is known is cowpox, the ili-eise which led to tho dis coy. ry of vaccination as a preventive of smallpox in the human kind. Tlie disease runs its course in about three weeks d nothing can be done to cut in short. A mild laxative, say I', pounds of epsom salts, may 1.- given if the animals seem feverish. Great care should be used In milking not to ruptur.- the bllm-rs or tear off th" scabs. Anoint the teats Wita an ointment formed of "lie ounce laeii "f rm .■ ■ tl and oil of almonds, mi l half a dram of myrrh. It may lie necessary to use milking tubes io oraw oft tlie milk. Th., disease is contagious, being communi cated to t e milker and then to oilier cows. Tiie milk is all right it the cow has no fiver. Impaction oi' Stomach. AV. 11. Summerlin, t'rus', Ga.

Jordan, Swofford, Wash.—l send you a clipping from your paper of A.ugust 22d. I have a three-year-old steer that has the same disease that you describe, but has only had it two or three weeks. You failed to give any remedy for the disease. Now if you can give a remedy for the disease, you will oblige mo. Answer- AVe were by no means confident that Hie disease affecting ttio cow of D. B. K., Hayesville, N. ('.. was lump jaw; nor are we any more confident that yours lias tlie same disease. It requires a car' ful lietail of tlie symptoms to recognize the disease without seeing It. As we stated in reply to D. B. K., the disease can be cured in a majority of cases if treated in the early stages, as follows: Give the animal one’dram of lodide of potassium morning and evening in a bran mash for three, weeks. If the animal’s eyes should get watery and considerable saliva run from the mouth, stop for a tew days and begin -again. Rub the lump once a week with one dram of biniodide of mercury and uno ounce of lard. Continue this for several months. Sowing Wheat. AV R., Assurance, N.

Turn over tlm land four or flv»' inehes deep as soon as practicable. About the usual time for first killing frost sow over the surface 200 pounds of acid phos phate, 250 pounds of cotton seed meal (or J2.‘> pounds of high-grade dried blood) and pounds of muriate of potash (or 200 pounds of kainit) per acre.

Cm it be permanently cured? AV I lat Is tlm remedy for a- ihotse eating too fast? Answer- It. is quite evident that your horse Ims intestinal worms, whi-h is the cause of his rubbing his tail, and also, probably, of Indigestion. First, g- I rid of the worms, as fellows: Give tho following as one dose, night and morning, for a week; One dram each of copperas and tart ir emetic ami two drams of linseed meal. At tlm end of Vhe week give a pur gative, as follows: tine ounce spirits of turpentine and one pint raw linse-d oil. Give .is one do.-:-. At tlm end of three w eks r-peat tiie entire treatment In or der to . ateii any worms that may have hateiied in the meantime. After tin- first week of treatment for worms, and while waiting for tlm time for tlm next course, give two tablespoonfuls, three times a day, of the following tonic: One ounce tincture of iron, one ounce tincture of gentian, ten ounces of water. The above tonic may be continued after the second course of worm treatment, '1; . are so many ski;', diseases that It is difficult to determine from yourdescrip ti-ui jmt wiiat it Is. But since it returns every summer and ge s well on t'he ap proach of cool weather, w<- suspect that ii is a parasitic di.'-'-ise called "summer sores," from a parasitic worm called lilaria irritans. Treatment consists lir.si in placing the anima] in a cool place and showering the. surface with cold water. Then ini, on the surface of each sore lodo form. and coyer il with a layer of collod ion, and repeat, the op ration every twen ty-four hours for lifteen days, or until tlm sor.s heal up. Ether or caloroform may be used instead of dodoform, being poured on cotton lint, or on a piece of sponge, and applied to the sole for two minutes be fore painting collodion. This is a slmpli but tedious treatment, but it is nec essary. Eczema of Mule. A\ . L. 8., I hidden ville, S.

I have a beautiful pug that is nearly worried to death by Heap. AVe have used various remedies for the last two years, such as insect pow der.-. k-rosene oil, etc., and think we nave them till killed out. but two days after our best work t'he dog will be covered. A', ill appreciate a sure remedy through farmers’ column. Answer The difficulty probably lies in the fact that you simply kill tho fleas that may be on the dog at the time of treat ment, while t'iie brei ding of young liens and their rapid development is constantly going on in the rugs, doormats, crevices of t'he floor, sweepings, etc. Tlie fleas do not breed on tlm dog. Tiie eggs are drop ped at random, but mostly while file d ig is lying quietly (as may be) on tiie mat, or rug. or floor, or in his kennel. The eggs hatch in a few days into little white worms and these soon develop into fleas and get onto any dog t'hat may pass near, or lie down in their reach. Persian insect pow der (fresh and good) is excellent to dust over (he dog, as well as over carpets, rugs, etc. in winch he :has lain. €>r you may wash the dog with a mixture of yolk of eggs and one teasoonful of spirits of tur pentine to i'a<<h yolk, or a mixture of one ounce of oil of anise-seed and ten ounces of OPIIAI, AIORPIII.NE and WHISKY Habits cured in ten to twenty days.
