Every reader of the daily and the up | to-date weekly newspapers is accustomed I to seeing in every issue of such a paper ! one or more columns of market reports, ; or quotations of the prevailing prices of | staple commercial commodities. In all I the papers published in the cotton states I the "cotton market” occupies a promi ; nent. if not the first, place in these re ports. The farmer who grows tin cot ton, tite man who buys and sells cotton, nearly every business man—indeed, nearly i verybod.v is interested in the price of cotton. Not only is the local market quoted, but also that of every important city in the United States, es well as that of bivrpool. I'ollow.ng the cotton mai ket reports come the stocks quotations, j railroad shares, money and bonds; then the market prices of corn, oats, wheat, flour, bacon, lard, live stock, and even ; chickens and eggs, feath rs, hides and skins, fisl., butter, naval stores find a regular place in these market reports. Hus it never occurred to the farmer to ask why commercial fertilizers, and es pecially fertilizer ingredients, are not i also properly classified and included in those daily and w-ekly reports? I li vc given the subject some thought. : .bn;: have never instituted any invostiga ' tion to find out why it is not done It Is not probable that manufacturers of ■ fertilizers and dealers therein have delib erately adopted or approved a policy of ; silence in this mater. In may bo that the fertilizer trade, being yet liarely more than a generation old. has not yet de- j manded recognition in the marts of trade. ' The l.u.'int-. has grown up from such comparatively small beginnings that i:s . present ini;s-rt:inee lia- stolen upon tho • country almost unawares. Yet the cottoq seed products—oil, meal and hulls, rep;esenting even n younger ' and perhaps i s. importanii position in j trade—are quoted daily. . The importance ol .' daily report of i prices of standard fertilizer ingredients ' Is pcrhajis already recognized by many ( persons who are engaged in handling cse ingredients, and would almost e r i talnly be at once recognized and appreci ated by thou.-;, nd. of farmers who buy ‘ and use them. The trade in fertilizers has grown to very large proportion:', in deed. and in the opinion of those whose judgment Is entitled to weight the manu faeture and sale of fertilizers will never I>e less In magnitude and importance than they are now. It is a business that touches th. farmer almost universally. The cost of commercial fertilizers has emne to be a very Important item in the expense account of a majority of fanners, especially those who grow cot- ■ ton, tobacco, sugar cane and wheat. i In this regard the well informed farmer i docs not care to know what the ' ND— i I’Q Co.'s Cotton Compound." or "Bone i and Muscle’s Wheat Grower." or any other proprietary brand of goods is quoted at in Atlanta. Augusta, Charleston. Jack sonville, Montgomery, etc. What he does want to know, or should want t.» know, ' is what phosphoric acid, potash and ni . trogen, in recognized n.vall.-ible forms, are worth, spot cash, in carload lots, or less titan carload lots. Freights are not sub . ject to much variation and may be easily •.sumated. The inslstance should be es pecially strong that the ingredients con taining singie vain ib’.e plant food ele ments should be quoted. Fur in ; ance, tlie farmer (and the local • dealer as well) wants to know lite mar ket price per ton (or per unit) of acid . phosphate; the price of potash in the I form of muriate of potash; the price of ; nitrogen In the form of dried blood, ni | tra'.e of soda, etc., in every case stating I the percentage, or units, of valuable ele- I ments. i It would not be a difficult matter to I give quotations on what i-s known as a ; "complete fertilizer"— commonly called i "guano,’’—always basing the quoted I prices on guaranteed analysis. It would i be easy enough to quote 8:2:2 guano ; at so much a ton. In carload lots; and j 10 : 3 : 2. so much, and so on. A farm i er then, or a dealer, knowing the price i of. say, an 8 ; 2 : 2 guano and the i prices of available phosphoric acid in acid | phosphate and of potash in muriate of ; potash and in kainlt and the prices of nitrogen In its various forms, can decide : whether it would be better to buy the . manipulated guano, or buy the separate j ingredients arid mix them himself. Of ' nentimes it would be found better to buy I the ready-made goods, but there are many farmers who will prefer to buy separate ly and mix according to his own notion. It does seem clear that no reputable manufacturer, certainly no dealer in such goods, may consistently object to such market quotations. ’ What say our brellvrun of the agrlcul -1 tural press? And what say the readers ; of The R REDDING . ELEVEN CENTS COTTON. Today (November 14) cotton brought II cents a pound for middlings in At lanta. Griffin and most of the markets I in the interior and I! 1-2 cents in New York! Isn’t that a good thing for the farthers w*o ’save not yet parted with their crops? There seems to be indeed a short supply and the speculators and cotton mills are bidding against each other for the staple, and there’s no tell ing where the price will go. Maybe 12. 13 even 15 cents. One editor throws up his hat and hails, as if in sight, 3 pounds to the dollar. But maybe it will go up for a while and then recede to 10 or even 8 cents. I heard a cotton mill man say the ofher day that "10 cents is a mighty good price for cotton." It may be to him, and I I cents is still better— especially if the mill man has it to pay— but particularly to the farmer who sells it. I congratulate the farmers who have "borne the burden and heat of the day” THE WEEKLY CONSm VTIOMi ATLANTA, OA-. MONPAX NOVEMBER 23. 1903. for ton years past. Many thousands of i them have not cleared a cent a. pound on I cotton, over and above the cost of pro i duction and marketing, in ten years or more Many other and perhaps even more thousands have not for ten years received enough in the aggregate to pay the cost of production. It is getting to be a "red letter day" in the experience of the "horny-handed sons of toil," only the tdty of it is so many have sold prac ticaTT,' ”! oT their crop at 8 or 9 cents a pound. As I said some weeks ago the farmers are entitled to 10 cents a pound tor their cotton for ten years "hand run- I ning” in order to make up for losses in J the past decade. Ten cents, nor 11, nor yet 12 cents a pound is going to make ! any farmer rich in one or two years, j Thousands will make (their tens and ■ hundreds of thousands by the recent rise | in cotion. but even tho farmer, t bo has | so far withheld his crop from the mar : ket will only "come into his own" when i he pockets the proceeds of sale at 8 ; pounds for a dollar. Os course, we are i al! sorry for the manufacturer who must t risk his money on I I cents cotton. That ■ Is, we are sorry some, and wish him ! better luck In future and remunerative prices for manufactured goods. He lias ' been having a good time for several : years past, getting cotton for 7 or 8 | cents, or less, and selling .he manufac tured goods at prices that have yielded big profits. The development of foreign markets for cotton goods, the Improve ments in machinery for making these good has borne their proper and legiti mate fruits in the greater demand for raw cotton, competition among buyers, better prices to the farmer. But there Is a little shadow over the radiant picture. Tho good prices now prevailing arc not due alone to the in creased demand for consumption, but. must be largely ( barged to the fact t.«at the crop now produced and nearly count ed into the channels of trade is shorter i than was hoped arid expected. This means that a great many farmers have made very poor crops; for it takes a great many individually poor yields to ' result in a million or two bales bi the way of shortage of the crop. Tho farmer who makes only five bales to the plow and gets 10 cents a pound for it is but little better off than the farmer who produces (with the same outlay) ten bales to the plow ma gets 5 cents a I pound for It. Th" poorer crop is taxt-q I j with the cost of picking and ginning and i I bagging and ties of only five bah s| ’ i against ten to the plow. And there are I i a great many who have not made ovr>. I : | live bales to the plow, and not a few | j who riavc made even less! ; 1 repi.’t Che caution expressed a while , ' i back, wtien cotton first touched IC cents ; ' i ami then i"boun<o(i to 9 and les:; per ! ’ pound. Don’t .‘-■take everything on a big 11 ' area in cotton next year, in hope of a ! ' big yi.ld and 10 cents a pound for it. ; ■ i If you do take cure to sei! your crop, I ' l you plant it. for "future deliv- j cry,” tied 'bus hedge against disaster, i ' , Mark Hie piedietion! Next year the I 1 ; most successful and prosperous farmer ' I will be one that grows his supplies at I ! homo, raises his own “m-ait and bread."

This makes a high, slender stack, its weight resting upon a solid foundation, the pole only acting as a side support in case of wind, and which is far more effective titan if ■the vines were stilted upon the pole by means of cross pieces nailed thereon. The open pen allows admission of air to under part of stack, which ventilates through, drying out all dampness and greenness in a few days, the vines never heating. In stacking the vines green every leaf adheres, lying flat and form ing a slinglellke surface to the stack, keeping out all rain, no matter how hard. Os course, the hay should be allowed to remain in the stack no longer than when ihoroug’tly cured, but it is safe till then, and. oh, so much lighter haul ing and handling to the house racks than when green. If a man wishes io bale his hay and has a press on rollers, he may do so from stack to stack without hauling, finding a bale or more in each stack, or If be wishes to haul loose to shelter the method is to reach up. take off the cap, count the stack nn( ] pnll out the pole, after which the hay may be taken off in layers as nut on and with very little shattering oT loaves. Then if he !s equipped at the barn for elevating the load ns a whale he lv|s lost nothing in shattered 1.-avos. \frer bousing the hay th" poles may bn houses for a number of future years and the pens reconverted to cordwood.

For instance, the increased yield (average) in 1900 cost 34 cents per bushel. Conclusions—l. Dried blood is evidently more effective than either nitrate of soda i or cotton meal, but the difference is : small. 2. F it the greater proportional cost of nitrog. ii in the form f dried blood makj’s , it lc a profitable thav cither of the I others. : 3. On the whole, cotton meal at. same i relative prices as those given above is the chi’ai;' st source of nitrogen for a cora ; crop.

KNUCKLING OF COLT’S FOOT. J. S. B. 8.. Eutaw, Ala.-I have a fine I colt 7 months old with fore feet tucked back aider; one foot badly.

Answer - The trouble is called knuck ling and Is not uncommon In young foals, but It usually Is of short duration, tho ankle:- soot straighten up without treat ment. in this case of yours I fear you will find It difficult to manage.

Repeat the ointment every second week for sev eral months. PARAPLEGIA OF COW. W. L. J., Plows! ire, Ga.—My father s cow Is atlliet.-d wit;; some unknown trou ble. it is with diffi iilty that she walks. She prefers to li. ci' izti most of the time. She acts as though she were strain halted. She drags her hind feet while walking. Her hind legs pop when she starts to walk. She can get up easily when down, but It Is with difficulty that she starts to walking. The trouble has been coming- on gr; dually for a long time. Her right hind leg is affected mostly, but loft hind leg is affected some. She trembles when starting to walking. It Is with difficulty taat she raises her tail, and only a little then. She can not switch It. at all. She cats heartily. Her calf is 5 weeks old, Her flow of milk has diminished 50 per eent since she got so bad. She is in thin order, and has been hard to keep up ever since this trouble has boon coming on. After get ting up she must ba k on her hind feet before she can start off. Ts you can ascertain from wiiat 1 have writ ten what is the disease please write me n, also tell me what to do for her. Answer—ln describing the symptoms, you omit a very important point, viz: you do not say whether or not she is with calf. It is not a very unusual oc currence for a cow to lose the control of her hind parts, more r less, a month or so before calving. In such casfs M as a rule, the animal recox is after calving without treatment. Bu sometimes the paralysis (for that is wiiat it is) occurs after calving and sometimes without any reference to calving, the cause being due to a blow on the Tine, a fall, or | other violent cause. If her bowels tire 1 not free and open, give Iter I pound Ep | som salts, (4 pound o' common salt.

Spruill, Monticello, N. C.--T have •i snt.-li from which contains the follow ing kinds of soil: First, a medium dark, .•lift soil which is tour or five inches deep and whose subsoil is a close clay and varies from a whitish to a red color, but mostly red. Second, a light sandy soil from four to five or six inches in depth containing a red sandy subsoil and third, a dark pond land whose sol] is from five to ten inches deep and con taining a reddish broxvn subsoil, which Is also sand. The rule with farmers in this neighbor hood is to break the land' not more than four or five inches deep or about to t/ie subsoil if it be closer to the surface than this. They argue that it will ruin the land If you should break up the subsoil or mix It with the soil. I should like to konw if it would not be better to break the land a little deper each year in order to make a deeper soil. Os course at the same time manure the land to help im prove it. XV ill you please state whether my idea is correct and when would be the best time to break it; also If it should be broken with a turn plow? Answer—The dark, stiff soil should bo broken not less than five inches deep, or deep enough to bring up about one inch in depth of the subsoil, using a two horse turn plow, Or a disc plow. T*fls I would do before Christmas if practica ble. commencing about November I. Each year go about one inch deeper.
