ORCHARD CULTIVATION
Il will soon be time to begin
Hie cultivation of the orchard.
There are three*great ends to he
attained in tilling the soil: The
conservation of moisture, the kill
ing of weeds, and the rendering
available of plant food.
Moisture is held in the soil by
mulching, or covering it with
some material, such as straw, for
est litter or by the preservation
of a dust mulch. The soil mulch
being the cheapest is the most
desirable. The soil mulch is at
tained by frequent and shallow
cultivation, and retains the water
required by the trees. Do trees
need much water? It is estima
ted that a good sized apple tree,
having 25,000 square feet of evap
orating surface, which is not a
large estimate would give off 31,-
000 ounces of water per day dur
ing the hot season, or say 250 gal
• lons. An acre with 32 such trees
■would transpire 8000 gallons or
i approximately 64,000 pounds per
day which is 32 toms or f ton a
tree a day.
Trees need and demand as much
plant food as any other crop; all
that wc render available by culti
vation is just so much saved on
the fertiliser bill. A judicious use
of cultivation and cover cropswill
reduce the cost of nitrogen to a
minimum. Nitrogen is the most
I expensive element of fertility, and
I when we can save on that the an
nual fertilizer tax on the crop is
generally lessened. Cultivation
breaks up the soil and exposes
more of its surface to the action
of the weather and likewise in
creases the feeding erea of the
roots, thus making it possible for
them to obtain more food. Be
sides what food may be secur
ed in this way, it is generally nec
essary to apply commercial plant
food in amounts of from 1 to 5
pounds per tree, depending upon
the age and size of the orchard.
\ good fertilizer for bearing trees
should contain from 8 to 10 per
cent, of potash; 7 to 9 per cent
phosphoric acid, and from l’/2
to 2*/j per cent nitrogen. This
fertilizer should be applied in
circles around the tree extending
out as fast as the spread of trees.
There is no use putting it right
around the trunk as the feeding
roots of the tree are some three
or four feet away from the base.
The cultivation of bearing or
chards may be as follows: If
they have been cultivated pre
viously and the roots are not too
near the surface, plow some six
i r eight, inches deep as soon as
possible in the spring, then give
shallow cultivation until the mid
dle of July when a cover crop
should be put in. This crop may
of oats, rye, or any of the le
gumes, with the exception that in
peach orchards on sandy land
cow peas should not be planted
with the possible, exception of the
Iron Clad variety. Legumes
should not be used it the orchard
is making too much growth as
they furnish more nitrogen which
simulates growth. No grain crop
should be allowed to mature in
an orchard but should be turned
under the following spring and
the cultivation continued.
In young orchards for some
three or four years a clean, hoed
crop may be grown, hut a cover
crop should be sown at the last
cultivation of the hoed crop, and
as soon as the trees need all the
land they should be allowed to
have it. If an orchard is not
plowed for several years break
the soil a little deeper every year
until the desired depth is obtain
ed. The first plowing should
be only some three or four inch
es for if deeper, too many of
the feeding roots are injured.

Cotton Seed Men Offer Prizes
Mr. Fielding Wallace, secre
tary of the Cotton Seed Crush
ers’ association of Georgia, -an
nounces that this association will
again offer a hundred dollars in
gold to the school children of
Georgia for the four best compo
sitions on “Cotton seed products
as a human, animal and plant
food. ’ ’
Last year a similar contest was
inaugurated, which resulted in
thousands of compositions being
written throughout the state and
instilled an unusual amount of
interest in the south’s richest com
modify .
The four prizes are to be di
vided as follows: First prize
SSO in gold, second, $25; third,
sls; fourth, $lO. None of the
compositions are to be over 750
words in length.
The compositions will doubt
less be divided into the following
topics: The merits of cotton seed
oil; cotton seed oil as a composi
tion of human food; The great
advantage of cattle raising in
the south and its possibilities and
the importance of cotton seed
meal and hulls as an auxiliary
thereto; The value of cotton seed
meal as a food for horses and
mules; The merits of cotton seed
meal as a plant food, being one
of the ingredients of commercial
fertilizers.
The best compositions in each
school in the state are to be sent
to the county school commission
er of that county not later than
April 25th. Each county school
commissioner is to select the one
best composition from all re
ceived and send it to the state
committee of judges, which is to
be announced later.
The Laugh Cure
Laugliter induces a mental ex
huiiration.
me habit of frequent and
hearty laughter will not only save
you many a doctor’s bill, but
will also save you years of your
life.
There is a good philosophy as
well as good health in thle max
, ,m. uaugh and grow fat.”
Laughter is a foe to pain and
disease, and a sure cure for the
“blues,” melancholy and worry.
Laughing is contagious. Be
cheerful and you make every
body around you happy, harmo
nious and healthful.
Laughter and good cheer make
love of life, and love of life is
half of health.
Use laughter as a table sauce;
it sets the organs to dancing, and
thus stimulates the digestive pro
cesses.
Laughter keeps the heart and
face young and enhances physi
cal beauty.
Laughter is nature’s device for
exercising the internal organs
and giving up pleasure at the
s ime time.
It sends the blood bounding
through the body, increases the
respiration, and gives warmth
ami glow to the whole system.
Il expands the chest and forces
the poisoned air from the least
used lung cell.
Perfect health, which may be
destroyed by a piece of bad news
by grief or anxiety, is often Te
etered by a good hearty laugh.
A jolly physician is often bet
ter than all his pills.
Good Cough Medicine for Children
The season for coughs and colds
is now at hand and too much eare
cannot be used to protect the
children. A child is much more
likely to contract diphtheria or
scarlet fever when he has a cold.
The quicker you cure his eold the
less the risk. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the sole re
liance of many r mothers, and few
of those who have tried it are
willing to use any other. Mrs.
F F. Starcher, of Ripley. W. Va.
says: “I have never used any
thing other than Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy for my children,
and it has always given good sat
isfaction.’’ This remedy contains
no opium or other nareotic and
may be given as confidently to
e. child as to an adult. For sale

Making More Money Ont of
Cotton Crops
is merely a question of using enough of the right
kind of fertilizers.
Virginia-Carolina
F ertilizers
are the right kind.
The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study
your soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the
necessary fertilization and the results will surprise you.
See what Mr. W. C. Hays of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says:
“I planted about 30 acres of some ‘gray sandy land’ that had been in
cultivation for over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Caro
lina Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather 30 bales from
the 30 acres.” This is why we say it is the right kind. We have
hundreds ofletters like this, and even stronger, in praise of Virginia-
Carolina Fertilizer for cotton.
Get a copy of the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmers’ Year Book
from your fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy
will be sent you free. It contains pictures of the capitols of all the
Southern States.
