Jones in Southern Cultivator.] Oais iuav be sown up to the middle of October iu the northern portion of the cotton belt, and still later towards the Gulf; but the risk is rather great it sown later than the time designated, ' in "tin* cold. hillv regions. In the lati- ! Itadc of Atlanta if we cannot get in oats j by the middle of October, we prefer | to wait and sow in Janaary. \Vc have i called attention on former occasions to the importance of sowing seed in the fall from a fall raised crop, and in the : spring from a spring raised crop. Fall crops acquire gradually the power of' enduring cold, and spring crops the habit of early maturity. In the North the difference between winter and spring wheat is very marked, the former being much less injured by cold. The same difference can be es Itablished between fall and spring oats. ' For fall sowing the rust proof is to be preferred; for spring- sowjnir the Burt is perhaps best. It seems to have prov* ed rust proof, and sown in January or early February, is ready for the cradle about as soon as fall oats. The advantage of this is that the crop is made before the moisture in the soil is exhausted. }t matures so rapidly that it cannot be sown in the fall; it is esseu- j tiallv a spring oat. Barley and rye may also during this month, but unless""upon j very rich soils will not?irfusli much j " grazing or mowin?r""It is thought i however that ttaXTate sown .will pro-1 duee mor^seed.

In limestone regions, where strong, stiff soils jafe^uutl, and in localities where the exitfhsive system of farming still prevails, the wheat crop may pay pretty 'well. The first class cf soils . is especially adapted to grain, and the corn fields need rest and restoration of humus through small j>rain crops. The extensive system, in like manner, calls loudly for a rotation In which tjSZrC7''- small grain enters, becausc cotton is a .. 1 Anr3"*-%rm At?An in ' fliof c\'Cfam o n<l i <3 1 C?V(U UUU V-X- 1 ||||p?: poses the land so much to washing and leaching. "With no expense for manure ] the farmer sows one bushel of seed per acre and harvests live or six. Two lllpr , bushels probably pays expense of plowing in and harvesting, and he makes two or three bushels per aero as profit. Bathe considers tint the improvement of his land and the pasture after harvest would compensate him, even though his wheat crop did not pay expenses.

Appropriate soils, manure,! etc , for wheat were discussed iu pre-j vioiis numbers and need nor be repeated here. After the middle of the month it is rather hazardous to sow clover and grass; nnless the seasons v- are exceptional they will not get well rooted enough to withstand the freezes. Delayed sowings may be deferred till It is a little singular how often the inAMTmr ic if hoc IggpS?V: in'juii j A*. >*v*^ been repeatedly answered in the Cultivator. A marked illnstinrioe of this is^wae-fcottcbing the propriety of turning weeds under green "or after they have been killed by frost. Practical fanners looking at the matter in the light of practice, not of theory, had been divided concerning it. The asmcultural press had advocated so diligently and persistently the plowing r . under of green crops as a panacea for sestoring the fertility of worn soils that practical farmers who catch up j theories sometimes, at la*t, begin to j preach the same doctrine, and it is at present the popnlar theory of the. day. Now, this kind of preaching came originally from the north, where the conditions of climate, crops and soils are quite different from onrs. At the ' gjgf" : north," soon after green crops arc plowed under in the fall, the soil is { locked up in ice and decomposition of I ' the green staff is suspended and no : leaching can go on. In onr rniid cli' mate the reverse holds good?decomposition goes on without much checkl and leaching of its products is greatv, facilitated by copious winter rain's. . - ^the north a large portion of the lastTifSeeded doTii iu srriaH-grain and grasses, crops which are ready to ap;v V. " priate at once the airv products of de', composition of the green stuff which may form. With ns the land usually continues bare a**til a summer crop is put upon it the ensuiug spring. That, therefore, which might bo good practice at the north might might be very poor practice at the south, and doubtless tKfi difference between "iractical ? farmers-at the South arose from some seeing the good effect of;plowjugnudcr green crops when a growing crop follows at once, while others Bad their attention directly to cases wbete a summer crop followed. The truth is, as we have often argued, no land should be left bare daring- the winter. Should fall plowing then be abandoned? In most cases' we would answer, yes. Fortunately the increasing adoption of the intensive system of fanning renders it less and less important. But there is one exception to the above statement. Yery stiff attractable clays, especially such as have been plowed too wet, arc decidedly benefited by being thrown into high, narrow ridges, so that the freezes raay pulverize ana mellow them. These soils leach less than others and the mechanical action of frost outweighs any loss from that October is noted for the beauty of its k weather; it is exceedingly favorable for the harvesting and housing of f .e summer crops. Early planted corn is J then dry and can be stored without' danger of injury. The cotton leaves not yet rendered crisp and brittle by frost do not adhere and mix with the lint , as they do later in the season. Everything now urges the farmer to push" on the gathering of his crops, j Once housed he feels- they are safe, j If. unless his barns are full of rats. This j may be easily and effectually prevent-1 Rl ed by building them apart from other j fpBk bouses and supporting them 011 post* ; two to three feet square. We speak I from ample experience on this poiut.. Li^ht open houses might be construct-1 - ed in same the manner for tbe storing of j sheaf oats. The roof would be tbe j - ouly expensive part. Little more than \ the framing would be needed, and the j & floor might be made of poles. Expen=- j sive barusare not needed in tbe South,! We need not imitate the Northern farm- | erin that particular; our surroundings j are different from hi.?. Many cnthu- [ siastic farmers?city bred and retired j professional men?are carried away with the pictures of tine barns in Northern journals, or in Southern which copy from them, and spend large amounts 011 similar buildings for j which tl'cv have little use. Simple, open shelters suffice for most purposes in our mild climate. Cut it is desirable to hare such for all the stock on the tarm during cold, rainy spplls. Simple frames of poles, which can be had 011 every farm, and a plank roof will answer every purpose. During summer the planks can be taken down, stacked and protected from the weather. Thus managed they will last for many years. Speaking of stock suggests that they should not be kept 011 the grass and l clover too late in the fall?if grazed too closely they do not stand cold so well j i !uul will not snrinsr forward so earlv 1 in the spring. One of the best pastures ; ! for late grazing is a Bermuda sod, [ which has not been pastured the latter half of summer. Under these circum| stances the grass grows tall, and while | the frost singes the top, it remains S green below well into the winter. We have known a cow to be well wintered on such a pasture without any additional forage. The Lespcdega also, especially if sheltered a little by pines in old fields, furnishes quite late grazing in the fall. Whenever the pastures'begin to fail, stock should receive extra feed, that thev may enter upon, the winter in good condition. .Afi wild animals fatten, in the fallaSid the lesson is one which it is wen to heed. Nature is tviser than man." The wintering of stock is bojh easier and less expensive sinceJrrtTGerman investigations on foryt/rationsSmve shown that siich sjep-gtances as wheafstraw finely nml mivr>r) \rifh oil r:ikfi make ^ost excellent feed. Cotton seed meal { can now be had everywhere in the j i South and a very little of it mixed with i [ wheat, oats or rye straw will^keep a ' I cow in fine condition?say two pounds ! of the meal with twenty-five pounds of j straw for a day's ration. The exceed- j ing richness of the meal compensates i for the poverty of the straw and at the j same renders it more digestible. We ' do not think we hazard much in saying : that in a few years cotton seed mealj will be the staple grain feed of all the 1 stock on the farm. They may not: | rciisn il at nrsr, unc amuuus cuu uc educated to eat almost anything which [ is nutritions. It is a common belief that it is belter to wait until frost has nipped the vines before digging sweet potatoes. Our experierce and observation do not agree with this belief. Anv time after the middle of October in this latitude, they may be dug if the ground is dry. If the weather is warm and rainy and the potato is in an active growth and full of sap, it is better to wait. But if the ground is dry and the leaves of the potato are turning yellow, they may be dug with perfect safety and best results. Having the ground dry at digging time is the main considerat;on. Some persons-are very successful in keeping them in houses?others foil entirely. The exact methods of success do not appear to be understood. Packing owor in o liniup with nprfroHv rh*\' kt,S " *" I'V. ~* * ?/ sand flHing the interstices between the potatoes, is one of the surest methods of preserving them. Next to this is the . old-fashioned bank or hill. If these are well put up, so that the potatoes vvill keep dry, and a plenty ofdfrt put wi as cold weather approaches, very few will rot. It is weH to have an air hole at the top when the- potatoes are first pnt up, but thjs should be closed tip after the lapse of three "or four weeks. We find a thickness of one foot of earth on the bank, none too mur.h. It is important to keep the -temperature of the potatoes as uniform as possible, neither warm in the day nor cold at night, and the thicker the covering the nearer will this uni-XV.**?

The former, being warmed by the snu, did not get chilled daring I vgry cold short snaps as did those on tbe'north side. A little more dirt on the hill would have remedied the trouble. If the sweet potato could be kept through the winter easily andsafely, it would be a most valuable, stock feed, far superior to turnips, carrots, etc. In view of the trouble and difficulty of keeping them, outattention has been turned to the com* mon garden artichoke as a winter root for cattle. It is easier raised than the potato, and while not as nutritious, I mni-A tlmii makfis un for that bv its ' greater productiveness; under ordinai ry circumstances it will at least double jthepotato in yield. In nutritiveness j it is about equal to the Irish potato, I with this great advantage that it has ! not lo be cooked before it becomes palatable and before its nutritious properties become developed. In place of I starch, which is the principal ingrei dient of the potato, the artichokc contains a substance between starch ond j sugar which gives it a slightly sweetish j taste and renders it palatable. "But j one of its great advantages is the ease [ with which it is kept through the winter. It has neither to be duf, nor ! banked, nor housed, but simply to be j left in the ground aud taken up as 1 needed for use. Instead it will not if d;f*r. This nlant has at times | been extravagantly landed, the yield i greatly exaggerated and its fattening | and Efe-supnortin# qualities rated cn; tirely too high. Tb6 consequence has I been persons have tried it, and finding | that it fell far below representations, ! have cried "humbug," and dropped it. i I?ut there has been ample trial to establish its valne. In sotnc parts of Europe it enters regularly" in to the rotation of crops, and Boa^singalt, who is a .nost accurate and careful observer. puts the average crop at three hundred bushels per acre?sometimes rising to five hundred. Of course so watery a tuber cannot be fed alone, but in combination. It should form a part, only, of the daily ration of an animal. Its chief value is in supply ing those substances called iiyuro-carbohs, which-include sugar, starch, fats, etc,; it is deficient in nitrogenous compounds. These might be supplied by cotton seed meal, which is exceedingly rich in then). Jn addition to the artichokes and meal, a cow should have also a moderate portion of dry forage. The artichoke need not be cooked; it is palatable and nutritious in its raw state, but cooking will not injure it. Some persons esteem it as a dish for the tablo, when boiled and properly seasoned. We think it worthy of experimental trial as a win- i ter food crop for cows and hogs. Those who contemplate planting out j orchards and vineyards, should begin preparation for the same. Sovembor ! is probably the best month, in cur cli- : mate, for setting out trees and niants. j. While those (to not mase any growiij abore ground, during the winter, they Jo often make considerable root growth?or else prepare the callus, which is the "first step in that ,direp?ion; and enables roots to form very rapidly in the spring. Check oif the land with two-horse plows, and if it is run deep little work with spade and shovel will < be needed to prepare the hole for the j reception of the tree. Laud for j orchard or vineyard should be plow;ed j at least eight inches deep before a tree I or plant is set out. Trenches two or three feet deep in which to set a tree, are wholly unnecessary. Good culti. vat ion for two or three years after the j trees are set ont, with less frequeut j and shallower plowings when the trees j get older, is the secret of healthy, j thrifty orchards. Of course judicious j manuring is not to be neglected. Avoid stable and highly nitrogenous j manures. Lime, ashes and a little salt, together with woods earth or well-aired muck are the best applications to an orchard. These should be used in sufficient quantities to be broadcasted. Remember that tbe feeding roots of trees are not right around their trunks, but are distributed in every direction for many feet, occupying the whole laud in the case of old trees. Orchards are best; manured iu early winter, The sub- i stances mentioned as best manures for j them will not leach out, but will re- i quire some time to siuk down deep | enough to be appropriated by the roots. ! It may be mentioned in this eonnec-! tion that the liming of land should always be done in autumn or early winter, to exert any effect upon the ensuing summer crop., THE COTTON CROP. September Report of tbe National Cotton Exchange. New Orleans, October 4.?The following is a summary of the cotton crop report of the National Cotton Exchange for- the month of September: The great heat of September and the' small rainfall has been unfavorable for the cotton crop, and the effect has forced a lowering of its condition to 10 per cent, against ou per cent, ior Angast, 87 per cent, for July, 85 per cent, for June and 84 per cent, for May. From one extreme of the cotton belt to the other the drought may be said, to have prevailed, and as "a natural result shedding has been general. The weather has proven unusually fine for picking, and as many correspondents say, labor is working hard to gather aud save the crop. Itis the general theory that the cotton growth is a good one, but the middle crop is only moderate and the top crop very pooi\ In many portions of several Suites ginning had not commenced up to the date of advices received, while in other sections, with continued dry weather, a comparatively early cessation of picking is predicted, the time running from the middle to the close oi' October, The average condition of the crop by States is as follows: Virginia 80, North Carolina 80, South ?

Conklins: Predicts that Cleveland -will Carry New York-A Great Change of Public Sentiment in the Last Two Weeks. [Special to the Ifews and Courier.] New York, October 2. ?Koscoe Conkling, who knows New York politics as well as any man in the country, said yesterday"The best judges in New York City do not think Butler will poll 12,000 votes there, and it is doubtful if he gets 20,000 in the whole CtAt/% T?Tron f loo rrnfo er*I\_ 'UUipiiU ?;uuc* JLiV^n 1.U10 T viu ouvthicted from the Democratic numbers seems disastrous at first sight, but closer consideration shows that throughout the Republican canvass thus far one factor has not been taken into account. This unspoken element which is to play so prominent a part in-the campaign is the disaffcted Stalwart element, which is better defined in New York than elsewhere, and which will undoubtedly overcome all efforts that can be made by the Republicans for gaining the Empire State to Blaine's support. It is also very probable in New York, and almosfe unquestionable in Massachusetts, that the Independent Republicans will by far exceed any addition that the Irish-Amercan elements may give Blaine and Logan in those States, and, considering these facts, there are 110 reasons why Cleveland will not carry 35ew York, provided that State does not give Blaine a stronger vote than it did Garfield, which is out of the question at this era of affairs." The reports from the great Independent meetingin Boston last night show how deep the disaffection fs there. One opinion is quoted here to-day with great satisfaction, namely, that of Dr. James Freeman Clarke, one of Boston's brightest intellectual lights, who said: "I recently visited Governor r.levelawl in Albanv. and SDeut an hour with him alone in his private room He talked with simplicity and freedom, with a manner which carried conviction of its truthfulness. He did not -pretend that he had not done wrong. From what he said I was satisfied that no one suffered more than himself from his past errors, and I was convinced that he had left them behind. Bnt I gathered this not from any formal confession or profession, bnt l'rom the depth of conviction with which he spoke." 1 The Republican said: "Roscoe Conkling is the man over all the New York Stalwarts, and all of the work done during the campa:"H will be uiiJ" 1 f r? .1 uur ins ui* cutiuii- 11# ? uo jliou iiiu other night that a number of influential Doston and New York Stalwarts held a meeting in New York.

Matter^ are booming at headquarters, and money is pouring in. Within the last "fortnight a wonderful change has come over the spirit with which the public seems to look at National politics. Democratic success seems to be in the air.

This statement is fully verified here at the headquarters, with the3&diiiou: "We arc.making it hot- Our.-giae pot is full and we will carry the Statethis October election by a good majority.'? It looks, very much as though ibis, were trne. Ex-Governor Foster and Colonel Dudley arc really Ja charge of the prac- tical part of the fight on the Republicau side, and Don Cameron is exped-j ed to-morrow with more ghie.
