ATION OF PROGRESSIVE FARMERS.
What Work Should he Done daring the
3Xonth of October?Valuable Suggestions
from High Authority.
f W. L. 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

very rich soils will not?irfusli much j

under exceptional conditions. 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

||||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.
Bat under the intensive system
of farming, where crops are raised
^v: by lar<*c expenditures for manure, the
conditions are entirely changed.
"Wheat will not make large yields with0-:

and to supply his pantry j
with new, sweet, pure flour early in the

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:

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.**?

I lUi'l.'UlV UC UlUugUb auum. j. w suuib
! instances, where not enough dirt had
been pat on, wo have "observed that
tbe potatoes on the south side of a hill,
kept better than those on the north
I side. 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

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

Conklins: Predicts that Cleveland -will Carry

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

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

done during the campa:"H will be uiiJ"

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. A dozen men with
whom I have talked to-day say that

\- A FIERCE BATTLE I>" OHIO.
BotJi Parties .Halcins; Extraordinary Efforts
to Aciil?-ve Success.
Columbus, October 4.?Ohio is taking
the biggest dose of politics this
year that she has ever digested. Daring
the Greenback craze and again, in
1880 there were very, lively-times here,
but no contest that I have ever seen
fvtTAliro.v/>?iTe' ftlftSfi-fisanniniinTv
with campaigns in this State bears any
fair comparison with this o?e'. There
is more well-directed, systematic effort
apparent on both sides than ever before.
The Republicans have the call
on the noise, but they are also doing*
vast amount of hard earnest work.
Their whole canvass is mapped out on
a broader scale than ever and is being
conducted with spirit and " courage.,
After nearly a week spent in the long
range politics of West Virginia the
transfer to this big business-lifee effort,
is refreshing. The Kepublicftu State
committee has this year taken a whole
house in a quiet part of the ?ity and
has at work three times the ustjal clerical
force. Their speaking c^apaign
is on a still broader plane, and ;.ev?p^
crossroad has its nuiJo^^vsJ-It
is_a regularseJr^uT'house, almost individual
campaign.
Stnmn SnMlcArz P.v(!rw!?>iw.
Iii reaching this point my ronte lay
some two hundred miles through4h*e
western and sonthem portion of the
State. Everywhere almost everything
else seemed l"o he neglected for politics.
At almost every station stumpspeakers i
were getting on and off the train, and
from all came this same story: "Never saw
the people so aroused in my life."
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. So:
carefully is this side of the contest
being managed that for-the. first .time
the committee has the name of every
voter in the State and a guess as to
how he will vote. Although the poll
V?cio lior?n inn/if a SMVtnrl can- 1
vass of all the voters is. to be made,
between now and election day. Upon
(he basis of four years ago this poll in_
hand would show-about 28,000 major.-"
ty, if all sections voted about the same
as in the Garfield campaign. Oompar^
iug it with Hoadley's election and estii
mating that the oit?e& will do abtiut ihe'
same theyfigure 9,000 majorityfoi .tbe
State ticket. This latter estimate is .
what the Republicans tie to, but hope;
to do better. They arc in excellent;
shape. There seem to-be-no- differences.
All factious appear to be lafcbr-.,
inir night and day.
Tho Democrats Also United.
The Democrats seem to be eqnally
fortunate. The Thnrman and Pendleton
factions appear to be as industrious
and earnest as the McLean and Payne
combination, that has practical charge
of the party machinery. No growler?i
can be found. The headquarters of"
the party in power in the State government,
even to Governor Hoadly, arc
*on' at the Park Hotel,- more, than a
mile from the business partDfthe.city.
They are conducting a .very different'
canvass from their enthusiasticcpponents.
All their-arrangemente. have,
been made with a view of TOSfcimj; a
still hunt. Their, speaking campaign
bears- no. comparison to^thatiof the
Republicans. It is comparatively in-/
significant,: btrL they are doing -ajtremeudons;amoimt
of imrd.woifc. They,
too, have a complete poll oi theyotcrs,
and are, like the Bepflblicaus, going-io
make another before electionKaay.:
They are doing all their workjjery
quietly, ',^d-^4UVr-c?&|o)ing nfofiing.
Carefai,tratne&;agents-are iu most of
the counties, " and -every arrangement
possible is being-juade to get . every
voter to the polls. They, like the
Republicans, appear* to be in funds,
and to be using them where they will
do the most good, without noise or
display. Xever before have the Dem-.
ocrats been ' so silent or so earnes#.
Their canvass' is being; "well and carefully
managed. So quietiy ii-it feeing :
done that it is difficult; for their oppo
nents to eaten meir- meinoos so as to
meet and counteract-thefr:ej0fect.
In many. respects, the sitaaiaoit is a
very strange one, entirely unijke anything
ever known; in the poStfes of
Ohio. This fact naturally- brings intp.
all calculations some - uncertain elements
which wiH play au importarit
part in determining the issue of this
battle.
