Urklges* Methods of Cultivation Pi uduceGporf Rcißlta—Mr. Cox’s Kxperimeuis Also Successful. -;-*V JfoT. 15. 1900. last year tho farmers of Georgia pot more laud in wheat than ever before and weto rewarded with a rich harvest of goldori grain. WV again ergo a still larger acreage of wheat and other grains. ThaTumilg of tall the homo supplies is the road to iudepeiidciioe. With everv tijihi in the way of necessary food raised at home, the farmer need not feel so uneasy aboutdhe prieo of cotton. It it is high, his profit* are good; if low, he U not burdened with debt. It wiHsoou be too late to plant wheat.- Whatever is to bo done eu that line must be done at ouce. Mr. W. J. Bridges of Spalding county, wboon 4 acres last spring made an average of 65 bushels of wheat to the that “wheat should never be 1 sown until after the first big frost in November, tor then it will stand more successfully the ravages of the fly or •mall grab that begins at the root and lap* the vigor from the young shoots. ’’ As Mr. Bridges has made such a soo eess of wheat growing, we give his method in his own words: “As to the land that'* I planted in wheal this year, I gave It a heavy coat tpg of manure In the spring and; then planted It iu ootton. After I had gath ered tbfi otop, I ripped out the stalks and then turned the land over with a two-horse plow, following that with a •tit away harrow, then rolling it with • heavy roller. My wheat was then put in with a drill, aging about 400 pounds of a special high grade potash fertilizer at the same time. In planting the Wheat I put in 105 pounds, or 1 bushel and S pecks to the acre. ” He use*) the bine stem variety of wheat, and before planting soaked it in blueetone, putting a pound of it into enough water to wet the wheat thor oughly. It takes about a gallon of ' wa ter to every two bushels of wheat. The blues tone should be dissolved In boiling water. The laud on which he made this large yield is a gray, loamy top soil with an undersoil of stiff red clay. On 16 acres which had been planted in Wheat for three consecutive year* Mr. IMlgea matt* an aversp* of about 44 % b®jbU to fh* acre. HU wheat was nld* on upland*. W Thomas H.

He sowed hu crop the middle of November and gath ered it May SO. Ill* laud was elevated but well terraced. Mr. W. F.

He u*ed Sit bushel* of •ot ton sued to the acre, and sowed 1 bushel of wheat to the sere on Nov. id Bid reaped May 18. He sowed bine •tn broadcast, plowed wheat in with 4-inch turner and ran over land Thomas’ smoothing harrow. planting he soaked the wheat for 21 Atm* in a solution of pounds oi Flnsstdne to 1 5 biuhels of wneat, keeping it well covered under water for the time mentioned, and thou rolled it in slacked j lime.

It Can Be Restored to Fertility by Judloious Fertilizing. Question. —What can be done to re store my worn oat land? A gontlem&D, who removed to Geor gia from one of the states of the great west a few years ago, visited Atlanta during the Interstate Fair, held in Octo ber. In speaking of worn out lands he said that Georgia farmers were not the only ones who by an exhaustive system of cultivation had deprived good "lands of their fertility. , -When people began to settle np states and found lands that o yields of 40 and 50 bfisbols of wheat to the aore, they , used the same land year after year with out returning anything to the soil, with the result that the yield diminished un til 9 bushel: to the aore was the best that could be obtained, home of them quit farming and began the raising of blooded cattle for the dairy and for beef, saving the manure and applying it to the land in order to improve the pas ture grounds. It was soon discovered that wherever cattle were kept the land was rapidly restored to its origi nal fertility. Now there is no such thing as worn out lands among good farmers in the west. Skillful fertilisa tion and rotation of crops keeps the land productive. This gentleman purchased a place in Georgia on which most of the land was what is oalled worn out. He weal to work to build it np according to the methods so often recommended by fhii department, via: judicious fertilising with bom commercial and homenpads fertilizers, studying the nature of hit •ail and trying to supply it with ths 4)91 ments most necessary for its rea*#aL A mo**? other things he purchased sev oral fine Jerseys, which supplied him With milk told butter not only for home eousumptiou, but also for sale. Tbs droppings from these cows were care fully collected and applied to tne land In rnm places alone aud in others in oom< bi nation with other fertilizers. Ha rotated his crops also and now oonslderi his farm among the best of its sins in middle Georgia Me regards tbs pea vine hay as bno of the best restorers oi land dftri thinks highly also of shevel vel bean. This {jefitlcmdn says that no land that has'evt-Ibiws good can become as exhausted that it* fertility cannot be re stored by skillful farming.—State' Agri cultural Department.
