®r» —How to Bring Up Worn, Sandy
Land to a Better of Fertility.
Worms In Freestone Peaches.
Qri stiox.— 1. I have a piece of worn,
sandy land, that I wish to bring up to
to a better state of fertility. I have just
s uwed it in peas, after manuring it with
ashes and acid phosphate and breaking
it deeply. How shall I proceed further?
2. I have a ten acre piece of ground
| with a branoh ou one side of it. I think
with a ram I could irrigate this laud at
a cost of J2OO or $3 X). I want to raise
truck. Do you think I could do so suc
cessfully?
3. This land will make 1,000 pounds
of seed cotton to the acre. Is it good
enough to at, once commence putting it
in garden truck?
4. Will it do to sow scarlet or crimson
clover behind the cotton pickers in the
fall?
5. What place in Georgia ships the
most garden truck?
Answer. —On your worn, sandy land
just sowed in peas (June 1), the plan
will be to cut the pea vines for hay
about Oct. 1, or sooner if ready. Then
thoroughly break the land, applying per
acre about 200 pounds of acid phosphate
and 100 pounds of cottonseed meal
(there will be euough potash in the soil
if you applied a liberal dressing of ashes
recently), and sow the Orhnson Glover,
harrowing it in. Next spring, you
should harvest a good crop of clover
hay, and at the same time your land
will be much better than at present,
both the peas and the clover having col
lected and added nitrogen to the soil.
Repeat the rotation of peas and clover
again next year, and your laud should
then be in condition to produce fail
crops. You will notice that by this
plan, while building up the laud, you
will at the same time be getting remu
nerative crops of pea vine and clover
hay. I would not advise the sowing of
rye with the clover, as it would be of
no benefit.
2. I do not think it would pay you to
attempt to irrigate ten acres by the use
iof a ram and tank. I know that you
could not do it at an expense of S2OO or
S3OO, and I doubt whether you could do
it at all by that system, as it would take
an immense amount of water to irri
gate ten acres in truck. I think if you
could arrange to put the ten acres iu
strawberries, and also to water them if
i necssary, it would pay you better than
! anything else. We frequently have a
dry May (like the last), when strawber-
■ ries fail for want of water, and in such
an event, if yon couhl water yours, they
I would certainly prove profitable.
8. If your land is full of humus you
might at once engage in raising truck,
I with the liberal use of fertilizers. If
1 the laud is devoid of humus you had
| better put scarlet clover on it this fall,
, to be followed by peas next spring.
4. I don’t think it a good plan to sow
scarlet clover behind the cotton pickers,
on land that must be tramped and
packed. The ground, on the contrary,
should be thoroughy prepared and fer
tilized, and the clover seed harrowed in
about the last of September.
5. Savannah ships more garden truck
than any other place in the state, and
some of the truck growers there have
made a good deal of money in the busi
ness. They have however, the advant
age of low freights by rail or steamship;
and can put their products in the north
ern markets, much cheaper than you
can. Before engaging in the truck
i business, I would advise you to visit
j Chattanooga, where they raise a vast
i quantity of strawberries, as well as gar
den truck of various kinds. Examine
well the methods, and the crops culti
vated by the successful men in the busi
i ness, and then decide upon your course.

liar Caps—How They Are Haile.
Question. —I save a good deal of hay
each year, but some years it is badly
damaged by rain, would it pay me to
get hay caps, and how are they made?
Answer.—There is no question as to
' the service rendered by the hay caps in
’ stormy weather, and they are used by
many good hay makers at the north.
I To make them, b iy common brown
sheeting 60 inches wide. Cut this into
' squares and sew the edges all around
: over a stout cord, leaving a loop of the
I cord at each corner about 6 inches long,
' by which it can be fastened to the
ground. Make your hay cocks some 5
or 6 feet high, and about 4 feet wide at
the base. Throw the caps over the hay
cocks and piu them at each corner with
a wooden pin driven into the ground.
If a good coating of boiled linseed oil is
applied to the caps they will last longer
and turn water better. If care is taken
of them they will last for 10 or 15 years.
i Hay caps are also made now of paper,
and many prefer them to those made of
cloth. Either kind will answer the pur
pose they are made for, and to a hay
j maker are well worth their cost.—State
Agricultural Department.
Droppings From the Poultry House,
Question. —I have always been in the
habit of keeping the droppings from the
poultry house during the summer
months in boxes or barrels and applying
them the following fall or spring to any
place which I wish to make especially
rich. But I find that they become hard,
and after having applied, it is some time
before they are thoroughly incorporated
with the soil Will you. for the benefit
of myself and other poultry raisers, tell
me of some plan by which I may keep
them iu gocxi condition, and nt the same
time render them at once available fox
any crop I may plant?
Answer.—Your plan of keeping the
droppings iu boxes or barrels is, of
course, preferable to leaving them in
-rfhe poultry houses, where they not only
affect the health of the fowls, but fur
nish a breeding place for s veral forms
of insect life more or less injurious.
' Befofe the droppings are placed iu the
I barrels, mix them with an equal amount
of dry earth, to which has been added
kainit in the proportions of a peck to
I each bushel of earth. Thea place in
the barrels and keep damp, not wet,
1 until needed. The soapsuls from the
I family washing are excellent for this
purpose. When the time comes for ap
plying to fall crops the mixture will bo
I found iu fine condition to ba immedi
! ately taken up by the crops. During
| the winter and early spring the best
■ plan is to broadcast tho droppings as
fast us gathered up and chop or harrow
| them into tho soil. This will prevent
I them from becoming hard, and tho neces
i sary chemical and mechanical changes
j will at once begin.—State Agricultural
1 Department.
How to Build a Goat! Barn.
Question. —I intend putting up a nice
barn. Am a young farmer just start
ing out and would be glad if you would
give me a few important points to bo
looked after in order to secure a comfort
able and convenient barn.
Answer.—The location of your barn
is of the first importance. It is easy to
make additions and add conveniences,
but if the situation is bad the defect
can never be remedied. Build on a hill
side and you can so arrange as to have
second story on a level with tho wagon
way, which is a great convenience in
driving in and out, and in unloading
and storing the crops. May also be ar
ranged to have a level drive way, which
adds greatly to the expedition and ease
with which the feeding, tho handling of
the manure and other operations may
be carried on. The situation should
also be selected with a view to conven
ience; that is, within easy access from
the fields and also the dwelling, without
being too near the latter. While good
drainage, to prevent dampness or staud
( ing water, is important, it is equally
important to pre von t washing. Two
often wo see the rich, dark streams from
our barnyards borne off to the nearest
watercourse, to be swept beyond our
reach, when a little care and fore
thought would enable U 3 to preserve
and add these wasted but precious ele
ments to our hard run fields. If possi
ble tho barn should be protected from
the cold north winds, although, at the
south, this is not a matter of so much
moment as in the colder regions of
higher latitudes. Having determined
on these main points, examine different
plans and settle 011 that which suits you
best, allowing for ample room, aud also
having an eye to an at.ractive aud in
viting appearance, to which a little
whitewash adds a wonderful per cent.—
State Agricultural Department.
Worm* In i’eanhes.
Question. —I have four clear-stone
peach trees; they were well fruited. Tho
fruit should ripen from July 1 to 10.
The peaches have all fallen off before
ripening, and every peach has from one
to four worms in it. What are they,
and how can I prevent them?
Answer.—The insect that has ruined
your peaches is the ‘‘Oarculio,” which
is a small, brownish beetle, and attacks
indiscriminately all the stone fruits.
This beetle lays its eggs j cist under the
skin of the peach, and in four to eight
days the egg hatches out a soft, footless
grub with a horny head, which com
mences to eat its way at once to the
center of the peach. It will remain
from three to five weeks in the peach,
when the injured fruit usually falls to
the ground, and the grub then burrows
from 4 to 6 inches in the earth, where,
after remaining about three weeks, it
becomes a beetle, and issues forth to
again begin its destructive round. As
a rule, the fruit containing this grub
falls to the ground before maturity,
though this is not always the case. It
requires constant care to get rid of this
pest. They have a habit, when alarmed,
of folding their legs close to the body
and dropping to the ground, there re
maining motionless as though dead.
By taking advantage of this habit many
can be destroyed by giving the tree a
sudden blow and catching the beetles
in a sheet spread for the purpose, then
burning or mashing them to death. Re
peat this frequently. Where possible
it is also well to let hogs and poultry
have the run of the orchard, as they de
stroy most of the grubs before they bury
I themselves in the ground. Spraying is
also recommended, with a very weak
' solution of Paris green, say 1 pound to
I I 400 gallons of water, to which add sev
. eral gallons of lime water. The foliage
j of the peach is very easily injured, and
’ I would suggest the other remedies as
' I the surest and least dangerous.—State
Agricultural Department.
Muck For Cotton.
Question, —Would it be a good plan
' to open a deep furrow, put muck and
1 leaves in and cover it with another fur
: row, and then in the spring bed on it
and plant cotton? What kind of ferti
lizer shall I use for poor, sandy land
where cotton fires badly?
Answer. —It would not be advisable
' to use the muck as you suggest. Fer
mentation of the muck is necessary to
1 make its ingredients available as plant
' food. To get the best results you must
; compost it with stable manure, which
would result in a fermentation which
. would bring inert materials into avail-
I able forms and improve the mechanical
| condition of both the muck and the
1 stable manure. Oue load of manure to
. three loads of muck, of good quality,
■ will make a compost which some au
. thorities contend is as good, load for
• load, as manure. Now you can either
use this compost as you would lot man
ure, or if you wish a stronger fertilizer,
add 500 pounds of acid phosphate and
50 pounds of muriate of potash to each
II 1,450 pounds of the compost.
Your cotton fires no doubt for want of
, humus in the soil, aud the humus must
1 be restored before you can hope to pre
vent the firing of the cotton by the use
of Xertiliaers. According to the best au
thorities “humus supplies nitrogen to
the plant,” “it imbibes and absorbs and
holds water, and the vapor of water.”
“it improves the texture of many soils.”
“And it absorbs and holds ammonia and
the salts of ammonia, as well as various
; other substances. ” “Moreover, by its
» slow decay humus supplies carbonic,
t acid for the dissolving of plant food.”
1 To replace the humus in your soil you
> must plant rye this fall, to be turned
1 under in the spring; follow t’.at with a
. crop of peas, fertilizing at the same time
> with 100 pounds of acid phosphate and
1 50 pounds of kainit to tho acre. Gather
the peas and let the vines remain upon
s the lan.L Th • following spring putin
■ cotton if you wish, and using the above
• fertilizer, lam sure you would make a
good cotton crop After that rotate
; your crop.: in such a manner that you
- wili not have cotton on tho same laud
t oftener than once in three years. Plant
• more small grain, more field peas, etc.,
s and in t his way you can keep up the fer
-1 tility of your soil, and make crops that
will boa pleasure aud a profit.
) 1 Cure J'or “Luiapus.”
Question. —My horse has a swelling
I of the bars ou tho roof of the mouth,
> called, I believe “lampas.” Can I cure
■ it without burning with a hot iron,
j which seems to mo a needlessly cruel
1 operation.
>! Answer.—Never permit the cruel and
, brutal practice of burning the roof of
• mouth for “lampas.” This method is
• . still pursued in some sections, but it is
> an evidence of ignorance and cruelty.
1 Tins condition is frequently duo to
1 i teething in young horses, sometimes in
; ! old horses to indigestion, and it fre-
■ I qusntly occurs when a young horse is
1 taken from grass and fed on grain.
> Generally this swelling will get well

■ inflamation be great enough to interfere

Grafting and Budding.
Question. —Please tell me, in grafting
or budding, doos the new growth take
the nature of the stock on which it is
' grafted, or of the tree from which tho
scions were taken ?
Answer.—A grafted tree is an in-
■ stance of blended growth. As tho emi
' nent authority Storer says: “The leaves
and stems cf the graft are nourished by
food taken in from the soil through the
■ roots of the stock, while the roots aud
' other tissues of the stock are supported
1 in their turn by food taken in from the
1 air through the leaves of the graft.”
■ The graft, however, retains the nature
of the tree from which it was taken, the
• stock being only the medium for furn
ishing it with nourishment from the
earth. —State Agricultural Department.
j Irish Potatoes.
Question. —Living in the latitude of
1 Macon could I plant Irish potatoes in
1 the spring, follow with peas, cut the
, vines off, and then sow turnips in time
to mature? Will pomegranates grow
from the seed, or how are they best
propagated?
L
Answer.—lt would not be impossible
for you to make a crop of potatoes, peas
, and turnips the same season, with a very
early spring aud a very late fall to help
' you out. Under ordinary conditions
you could not do it, and would have to
} content yourself with potatoes or peas,
followed by turnips. The pomegranate
is easily propagated by cuttings, layers,
> suckers or seeds. The seed should be
planted soon after the fruit is ripe, or
but few of them will vegetate.—State
j. Agricultural Department.
’ Diversified Farming.
’ Question. —Are there any statistics
• to prove that diversified farming is the
safest and most profitable?
t Answer.—The United States census
s for 1890 shows that 98 per cent of the
farms sold under mortgage were de
r voted to only one or perhaps two crops,
while of farms upon which several crops
were grown only 2 per cent were thus
7 disposed of. This fact should be a
1, strong argument in favor of diversified
; farming. State Agricultural Depart-
