THE SPARTAN CM AS. PETTI, Edi'or ana Proprietor Wednesday, Oc. 9 1901. ? . I Tilling tlio Soil. Atlanta Journal. J Agricultural writers for many, years have impressed upon the tillers of the soil the great need <>f deep 11 plowing and thorough tillage in the I preparation of laiui for all kinds of i crops. The up-to-date progressive i farmers of the South have spent time i ami money in an earnest endeavor to \ break anil pulverize their soils and j J an earnest effort to secure the highest, degree of growth and fruitage for | their different crops. There have I: beeu many kinds of implements used i in the effort to better prepare our i lands, many of which would do good i work in one kind of soil, while to- I tally unfftted to give good results in another. From the old-fashioned two-horse turn-plow up to the most highly andVlatest improved disc plows, we have spent thousands of dollars trying to make our soils yield up the natural plant foods they contain and render them available ti growing plants. The right kind ol experience, that which teaches us j the best policy to pursue, cun only | be learned from practical experience ! It was at first thought that tlu proper time to turn under vegetation was during the month of July or Au i gust, while it was yet green and in j the ripest stage of a rank growth, j Experiments early demonstrated the J fact that rank vegetation turned un-1 der while full of sap, during the hot days of summer, caused too rapid fermentation and placed too much acidity in the soil. In other words, tin soil would become sour and much of its fertility and usefulness lost. The next step was to await the coming of frost and turn the land after all vegetation had passed from life into death. The results were found to be not only superior to the old plan, but a decided improvement along the lme of building up depleted soils. The neere turning of land with its coat of vegetation wae found to be not all that was uaaded to secure the results sought. Investigators found that no ordinary turn plow could be forced into the ground deep enough to break the subsoil underlying the top soil, and that unless the subsoil was broken to a depth of from ten to twelve inches the winter rains could not be held. THE MALLORY PIAJW, Unless the winter rains could be held lands broken flush would wash j _. during the raipy season, the top surface more than likely to run together and become cemented, with the possibility of considerable damage to follow fall and winter turning if done after the usual fashion. Any plow which would properly break and subsoil our lands without any of the above attendant evils was the implement which our people have been seeking for many years. A short time ago,while in Maidson, Ga., I had the pleasure of witnessing! a practical test applied in the field I with a Mallory combination turn and ( subsoiling plow. I drove out in the, country two miles from Madison to see the work of the plow, not from curiosity, but to find out if the plow would do what was claimed for it by the owners and the farmers who were praising its many virtues. The field in which the test was made was in: wheat stubble, covered with a rank ! growth of crabgrass. The Mallory plow, which is made of solid steel throughout, except the handles, by Messrs. S. A. Turnell & Co., of Mad ison, Ga., is a double-turner, that is the wings of the plow hoe set out on either side of the plow foot, presenting somewhat the appearance of a hog-faced shovel. The point of the plow hoe is from 10 to 12 inches wide according to the size of the plow used. With a pair or ordinary muies, tne nrsi iurru? run opened out 8 inche9 deep and 10 inches wide at the bottom. The wings of the plow threw the dirt out for a distance of 18 inches on each side of the center of the furrow. The ns?t furrow run parallel with the first one and afc ft distance of two feet, ridged up and completely covered all the vegetation growing between the two furrows. By running the furrows two feet apart the vegetation in the field was completely covered and wide open furrows as above described left open to catch and hold all the winter rains, if run on a level or by terraces. The method of subsoiling followed, the opening of the furrows. A long, narrow diamond pointed scooter was placed on the plow and run in the open furrow, breaking and loosening up the subsoil from 3 to 8 inches deeper. In this way a field can be quickly plowed and subsoiled. with a trench 12 inches wide and from 10 to 11 Inches deep, left to catch and hold ail the water that falls during the winter, while the constant seeping through of the water across tho covered middles, together with the winter freezes, will render tha entire field scft and pliable by spring. Another feature of breaking land under this process, as worked out by Mr. Mallory the inventor. is that if the subsoil is wet with the lir?t furrow opened with tin turn plow can stand a day or two before the subsoiler is used. On the other hand it the subsoil is hard, the fi-st furrow can stand until after a rain, when the subsoil will be softened up and easily broken. Jt lias been long known that rain water cont tins many valuable fertil'zing properties, ?nd the fact that with the use of the Military plow a field can he well broken, turued and suhsoilcd. while it the satne time the winter rains ar(. ibsolutely held in check by the pro- j ;ess making the plow one of the most valuable for fall work that has ever tome under my observation. Aaother notable feature was the ease with | which the plow goes into the ground without any sliding or .clipping, with its own weiglit. and tals?? the lightness of its draft. I walehe<t t>\o rood mules of ordinary si/e null the plow willi ease. while they Iff I behind tiioin 21 furrow deep and wide : nough for any ordii arv ditch. The trger plow is intended to be drawn ivith three mules and is the mott ivonderfnl implement for tearing up! and I ever saw. WlM< K WOKK. Any farmer with a good pair of tiules can turn and subsoil a field yithin one-third the time he can do! it after the usual method, and get it ; lone 50 per cent, better. In the following spring all that is necessary oefore planting is to put in the guano in every othjr one of the old furrows, bed on it lightly and plant. The middles will be found soft and tne dirt can befeasijf* worked to the ' growing plants. Several of the best md most practical farmers who have >een using the Mallory plow for a year or two told tne they found great satisfaction in its work, and that t 'rough its use had greatly inereastd t ie average yield of all crops. There has never been an implement in rented which is Its superior as a cot'?>n stalk ripper. As a hillside broadcast turner, 1 found it superior to all reversible turn plows which I have seen or used. In examining he different features of* the plow 1 ound that it could be used not only or tearing up the subsoil from 12 to ') inches deep, but that it can be sed with scrapes in plowing the rops during their various stages of ;rowth. The plow is most valuable 'or the purpose intended, and I pre utne will gradually* come int?* gen rnl use. IIakvik JokdaX. The Yorkville Enquirer says. "Mr. ). A. David's earteon in last Sunday's rreenville News, represents Senator t'illuisn handing the contract for the rick work on Clemson's new dormi?>ry to a negro contractor, while The itato and The News and Courier ren un as dumb as oysters. A few veeks ago Senator Tillman was quoed as saying that he was opposed to he encouragement ot negroes in heir aspirations to positions of reponsibility. It has been declared 'or years, and so far as we know there uisbeen no denial, that the Senator ias none but negro overseers on his arm, and this Cfemson college inci cut leans us 10 wonuer u uu v-umut? i eut white contractor could be found o build that college dormitory." [Of course Senator Tillman gets his abur in the cheapest market. He is i Commercial Democrat outright, i he papers mentioned above will not ondemn their boss and most noble eader.] It is a long time until the next |presidential election, but Democratic lopportunities seem to be improving. | If they will cease their warfare with each other and let the Republican lanministration alone the next two 'years and educate the people on the basal principles of a true Democracy, ihey can win if they stick together. Divided they will fail. Southern Railway Reduced Rates. SOUTHERN INTERSTATE FAIR, ATLANTA, GA., OCTOBER 9TH, 1901.

Aii A<|{|it>s to (lie Cotton Farmers of North Carolina* At a meeting of th? de'ogates ap- 1 pointed to assemble at ltaleigh on ' the 2oth instant for the purpose of J ' considering and deciding on tho 'nest ( met hod for securing a ju-t and rea- , sonuble price for our cotton seed, it bushel. Id the event we :ire not aim* to sell or exchange on these terms, then it was recommended that we should use the seed on the farm for; fertilizer, and wherever practicable j there should be established by the: farmers' neighborhood cotton mills. It was the sense of tlie convention that it was preferable to exchange the seed for meal to be used on the arm rather than impoverish the farm by the system of robbery so much practiced by our farmers in making an outright sale of the seed. In all cases of sale or exchange the purchaser should pay the freight on seed and the farmers freight on meal. It was furthermore agreed to urge upon our friends the importance of township and county organizations to this desirable end ; for we fully lealize that mere State organization and resolutions can accomplish but little unless those whom we seek to aid shall organize among themselves and ictively ami intelligently co-operate with us. To this end we insist that every former interested in procuring better prices for cotton seed engage ictively in this work of organization and that no time be lost in perfecting the same in each township and county.
