JBIWWW?MB?ht??O?I AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT. What Variety oi Oats Shall the Farmers j Sow ? Iu this section a line corn crop was I grown in ihe year 1870; for five .years after that season the dry weather of i July cnt off the corn crop to less than { half. The farmers began to despair of | growing on old upland corn in sr.ffi- i cicnt quantity to feed the farm stock. j In the fall of 1881 an unprecedented!}* j larjre crop of lied rust-proof oats were i gown and the season was favorable for I fall oats, so the farmers harvested an I enormous oats crop in May, 1SS2. J Most farmers thought they liaa at ia>t j hit upon the plan of raising era in crops for stock, as the yield of oats that season per acre was in many cases fully five times greater than corn and the cost of growing an acre in oats was much less than growing an acre in corn. But since the year 1832 the oats crop has been a complete tailure in Monroe county, A few years since a gentleman from Hancock county spent a night with the writer. Alter supper the subject of growing oats came up, and this gentleman remarked tnat Mr. j "W. J. Xorthen, of Hancock, had been ! heard to say that he had kept an accu- j rate account of the different farm j products raised or grown on his farm, j and that he had realized more clear money on sheep than on any other farm product; and that next to sheep ] he had realized more clear profit from I growing oats. As the season is near at hand when farmers sow fail oats, it occurred to the writer that the readers of the Culf /t'nfnr wnnlr? he iVtaaspr) fn hfar from Mr. W. J. Northen on the subject of I oats raising. Docs Mr. Xorthcn sow Red rast-proof oats or has ho found ! some variety less likely to be killed by hard winters? A short time since I received a letter from Mr. John II. Dent, of Cherokee, Ga., and he suggested that I should write an article on oats for the Cultivator. Mr. Dent 3AVR in his section of Georgia the Red rust-proof oats arc a failure as they are too liable to be killed by cold win!, ters. He said tor a number of years he was enthused on the subject of Red rust-proof oats, but he has now abandoned them. lie thinks they are suited for a more tropical climate where the winters are mild and the springs are hnmid. Mr. Dent says: "The oats I want is a hardy variety that stands cold and grows tall, for 1 value straw as much c\e> T vrr* 1 CirOW OA ! CVO bUV aitia JL It Ikt.U iV?<^ CVI ( > ov that I can cut high and have a heavy stubble to turn under for" the benefit of the land " This, I presume, is the variety that most farmers are after. Let us hear from you, Mr. Editor, on I this question. For a number of years,, an oatR club in Baldwin county has been experimenting in growing "large crops of oats, bat I do not know what i variety is sown. Some large yields k have been published as grown bv men A in that section. In 1882, Mr. W. F. || Dewberry, who is a neighbor of mine, ||| had a field of eight acres that he A thought made 100 bushels per acre; he did not, however, measure them. Dr. ||lfl Moss, of Monroe, made 137 bushels <M> that year on an acre. Some six or eight years ago, Mr. Jim Rose, of SgjjaK Upson county, made 13$ bushels per Wg acre on a plat of eight acres. Three p? years ago the writei" made sixty-four bushels Red rust-proof oat3 on an acre | of land that was only moderately good ! land; but in 1S77 the' writer sowed on j the 10th day of August oats in a field j of thin gray land he had in cotton at the last plowing he gave his cotton. The yield was twenty bushels per acre, ? and as the cost of the crop was siraplv i ^\vhal ic cost to cut them they did not j cost to lay them down at the crib over j five cents per bushei. TJ ^ /\r? f U/v P/\l 1 Arwir?/v n V\ A C<r\ ttf ' XJ Ul> Ull Wilts AV/14V/>T iUg ygai ilO OV-/? ^Vi . again at the last plowing of cotton,1 but August and September were very hot and dry so that the oats were badly killed by heat. Of all the variefzes of oats sown in this section, none have yielded such large crops as the Red rust-proof; but they have become too uncertain a crop to rely on. Does the editor know anything about the "Tom Smith" oafs? It is said of them that they grow tali on poor land and yield well. If such is the fact, and "they are rust-proof, it would be well for the farmeas to grivc them a trial. Ill the August number of the Cultivator, for the year 1884, page 257, Bill Arp says seed oats and wheat ought to come from south of the sec-j tion in which they are sown. Let the farmers also hear from the editor on this subject. Has he tried the plan of sowing oats from more southern latitude, and if so, what was the result? One 01 my neighbors, Mr. A. U. Jackson, brought some oats from Macon county, known in that section as the "Chapman" oats, because Mr. William Chapman, of Dooly, first brought them in that section. They are, however, the same as the "Bart" oats. I obtained one bushel of this variety of oats and sowed them the 1st of March; I used acid- phosphate on them at the rate of 200 pounds per acre. The oats grew tall but the grain was very light. I shall nnf sntv them so-ain. Men differ in regard to the time to sow Red rust-proof oats. Capt. McMullin, of Monroe, who was a very successful oats grower, said from the 20th of September to the 10 of October was the proper time to seed that variety of oats. Mr. Thomas Marshall, of Monroe, who is also a successful oats grower, prefers to begin sowing the 10th of December and sow until Caristmas. My observation is that early sown oats arc heavier than late sown. If cotton seed would admit of sowing on land the last week in September without coming up, [ would alwAvs sow at that tims: but to ns<? cotton seed on oats, a farmer has to wait until the last of November, which is entirely too late to sow that variety of oats." In Coweta county, some eight or ten years ago, the farmers sowed oats in their corn and cotton fields at the last working, and the yield on some occasions wa.? enormous About the same time some very large yieias were reported irorn South Caroiiua by sowing in cotton and corn lands at the last working. F. C. Turner. Forsyth, Ga. In reply to the above we have to say, that the Red Rust-proof oats have given ns more uniform satisfaction than any other kind. Four vears ago we tried the ""Probstier" and thought from the first crop that it wonld make a fine crop for this section. It made fine straw and-an abundant tield of beautiful seed. The next year we planted more largely, and lost the entire crop from rust. SVe next tried a small sample of the "Unknown" oats at a 1 cost of six dollars per bushel and found ' them worthless, and we have the same report to mase 01 an tne varieties < brought Irom the Northern markets at 1 high cost and 110 profit. We know nothing1, personally, of the "Tom Smith" oat, bnt we doubt its making a 1 good yield 011 poor iand. Not nnny crops do well on poor laud. Next to the Red Rust-proof oats we have valued the Burt oats, but several years since discarded all other kinds for the rust-proof, as it is generally known. If < sown during September and the early i part of October they will not be killed : by the cold of the severest winters in i middle Georgia: and we have uniform- j .

It' sown later in the winter, or s the early spring, they stand a doubtful chance/and not more than one time in five will they pay for the labor of sow- ! ing. " J1 ? Land upon which the oats are to be sown should be broken with a iwohorse plow just as early as the soil can be turned and the vegetable matter well covered up. About the 10th of September, after the manure has been distributed over the surface, we sow the cats at an average of two bushels to tfee acre, and harrow them in nicely and well. Stable manure and cotton seed are here found a most excellent fertilizer, and we do not know that wc can commend anything better. The cotton seed arc crushed before being applied, to prevent germination. Treated in this way any ordinary farm should average thirty-five bushels of */v ? /% ah/1 am a 1> mti. vai? IU ilJU UUICj vWIU ICiWi^C V/ilO MUUdred per cent. 011 the cost, if the crop sell at forty cents per bnsbel. Oats cannot be raised with uniform .success if slovenly planted. The land, in our opinion, should be thoroughly prepared and the seed deposited upon a mellow, fertile bed, thoroughly pulverized. It may be that we can take a Disc harrow and go over much more ground and leave it in fair shape as to appearances, but we doubt if the success can be made equal to the yield of a deeply prepared and tfcorougnjy pulverized soil. We have tried purchasing seed sooth of us with no appreciable benefit. The great trouble with the oats crop has been lack of preparation and fertilization, and seeding at the wrong season. Cotton occupies the attention of farmers in September aud October, and they are unwilling to employ additional labor to put in this valuable crop. The teams stand idle in the sta bles, or worse, they are put into tne field to glean tne last vestige of vegetable matter from the soil, and the golden opportunity for an abundant harvest is lost, to secure a crop that frequently costs us more money than we receive for it. When wc get ready, in midwinter, to put in the crop, "the oats are badly scratched into the wet ground and left to freeze out and die without roots or fertilizer to stimulate them in the struggle for life. Every farm that is large enough to have a gin should have a cotton seed crusher, and .is fast as the cotton is ginned the seed can be utilized for oats. If the area is reduced, the land properly prepared and fertilized, and the Red Rust-proof oais sown the latter part of September, in Middle Georgia, an abundant crop, in our opinion, will be assured. The largest yield cf oats we erer made was from an acre sown on the 7th of November. Everything that winter was favorable for a good crop. We have not been able to repeat that experiment since. In our opinion our farmers make a great mistake in relying upon corn for l^their teams. We are glad to have this vquesuuu sujjgefcieu jusi au wiis time uy bur correspondent, as it is one of vast import and should be considered by our readers. If we can supply our teams with other grain grown in the winter and without cultivation, we then have the more time to devote to cotton and other surplus crops for an income to the farm. Let every farmer sow five acres for each mule and see that it is well done at the proper time and the question of stock food will be settled.?Southern Cultivator, Encouraging Tobacco Culture At the recent meeting of the State Board of Agriculture, the following resolutions introduced by Mr. Perry were adopted: Whereas, in the opinion of this Board a diversity in the products of the> Stntp has hp^nmft nPf?f?Hsa.rv' in order to advance the material resour^" of the State; and, whereas, great n terest is being manifested in every part of the State as to the practicability of introducing tobacco culture; therefore, Resolved, That $1,S00 be appropriated for the purpose of making a praccal test in the culture of tobacco, fifty dollars to be given to one farmer in each county and a premium of $100 to the farmer reporting the best result, the farmer to whom the appropriation is to be given to be selected by a com mittec of three practical farmers in each county, appointed by the Commissioner of Agriculture. Resolved, That it shall be the duty of the Chemist of the Department of Agriculture to examine such soil as may be submitted to him by the farmer's selected to make the experiments, and to advise with them as te the best fertilizers to be used. liesolved, That all profits derived from said experiments shall be retained by the farmers engaged in conducting the same, provided "they report to the j commissioner 01 .agriculture ior puolication all valuable information incident to the progress and result of the experiments, and provided each farmer so engaged furnish the Commissioner of Agriculture with samples of the tobacco i-aised.and cared by him, which shall be exhibited in Agricultural Hall, with labels indicating the type of seed and on whose-fhi'm grawn." ( A Lawsuit Over Calbreath'a Estate: (_bromthe Edgefield Chronicle.) Last Friday an interesting case was argued before Judge Roath, in the Probate Court in this village, the facts being as; follows: Dr. W. A. Culbreath had made application for letters of administration on the estate of his brother, O. T. Culbreath, claiming that Mrs. Pannie Culbreath, the widow of O. T. Culbreath. had waived her right to administer. Mrs. Culbreath denied that she had waived her right or consented for Dr. Culbreath to administer. She claimed that the property belonged to her children, and she regarded it as her duty to administer on the estate for their beuefit. Dr. ^niDreauj presented two papers, one signed by Mrs. Cnlbreath, the other by her brother, Dr. Prescott, and claimed that the papers gave him the right to administer on the estate. The paper signed by Mrs. Cnlbreath simply waived her own interest in the property, and she said that if the paper meant anything more than this then she was deceived zs to its purport rohon cV>f> Cio-no/3 if Thn ?nooflnti ? ?*V?? w?*v WJ^>IVV?

BAYARO'S RUDENESS. How the Secretary of State has Displeased His Senatorial Friends. (Special to the New York World.) Washington, October 26.?A friend cf Senator Butler, of South Carolina, said to-day: "It is true, as the World has stated, that Senator Butler has stopped going to the Stale Department and it is aiso true that his colleague does not intend to go there any more. The exact reasons have not been stated ^ - ' c? /%,? t> 11 f 1 ?? it m n ?af UlU OCIIrttUI JJUlIVJl Yt iiO JiVb vutUV4^V* with the Secretary of State because be did not promote his son to the Consulate of Marseilles. It would have been natural for Mr. Bayard to have paid Mr. Butler the courtesy ot promoting his son, but the fact that he did not, TTT/->?ilrl Mrtt Viqttq h<a*>r> a fftHCP fhr tfrifiV ance on the part of Mr. Butler. The reason why Mr. Butler has stopped going to the State Department is because Mr. Bayard treated him with great rudeness. ''One day he called 011 him to present the claims of a gentleman for the Venezuelan mission. As he entered Mr. Bayard's room he said: " 'Are you going to give my man the mission that I wrote you about?' " 'No, no, 110,' said Mr. Bayard, almost without turning his head. He then began an attack upon Senator Butler on account of the Morgan appointment. Mr. Butler repudiated all responsibility for that appointment. He said that he had carried this responsibility before the public, and had said nothing, but that no one knew better than Mr. Bayard that he was in no way responsible for Morgan. He had not even asked to have him appointed Mr. Bayard's manner was so ofiensive and his charge so unjust that the South Carolina Senator became very angry. He drew himself up very stiffly and started to go. Mr. Bayard, to conciliate him, then began to ask him about the case of the man he had presented for the Venezuelan mission, but Mr. Butler brusquely declined to say another word on'the subject, and left. "Two days after this interview Senator Butler's candidate was appointed. Butler has not ffone to the State De partment since then, and will not so Ions: as Mr. Bayard is there. The South Carolina Senator, if lie were asked about this matter to-day, would disclaim having ony grievance against the Secretary. He simply came to the conclusion that he would not have anything to do with him. Senator Wade Hampton dropped Mr. Bayard's acquaintance for another reason. He made a request ?f the Secretary to transfer a consular friend of his to another point. If this request had been refused Mr. Hampton would not ?- J * - iL - O 4. nave compiamea, uui inc oeureuiry treated him with great rudeness, and made no answer to his request." The stories that some of the Senators tell of their treatment at the hands of the Secretary almost surpass belief. The gratuitous rudeness shown by Mr. Bayard to his old colleagues is hard to understand. Senator McPherson, of New Jersey, called UDon him the other day, and the first thing Mr. Bayard said to him, before the Senator "had opened his mouth, was: "Be brief, sir: my time is valuable," as if the Senator were a desperate office-seeker, who was making an unwarrantable trespass upon his atteution. Got. Manning, one of the leading men of South Carolina, a man of high social position, early in tho history of the Administration wrote letters" to the President and the Secretary of State, indicating a desire to go abroad. The President wrote him a very polite note, saying that the matter " had been referred to the State Department. Mr. Bayard never answered the Governor's letter, although he had been a guest in his house in South Carolina, and was under numberless obligations cf courtesy to him. There is not a Democratic Senator here who has not had an experience of a disagreeable character with the Secretary of State. Mr. Bayard is supposed to be planning a brilliant foreign policy, and has advanced views upon the subject of the Nicaraguan Canal. Whatever he may propose, he may be certain that it will be killed in the Senate, as he has lost his hold on all his friends there. He has, by his course this summer, utterly destroyed all possibility of his having any support from Congress on any foreign policy that he may have on hand.

It is possible that money dipped into a j bounteous supply ?f pointer's ink, is to be ! used to teach false ideas. Why is it that such persistent anathemas clinnlrj <i!l <it nnr>o 1?p hnrlfd ayainst the Use of "Potash ami Potash Mixtures?" Those who insist that Potash is a poison do so because that is tie way they have of fighting: B. B. B., as the latter contains potash properly combined. Opium, morphine, strychnine, aconite, whiskey, etc., are all deadly poisons, and are daily destroying the lives of people, and why'do not these men cry out against them? "It is because there is no money in sight to do so. Potash is not regarded as a I poison, anu VC1Y 3C1UUIU nanus aujf uw,i but those who abuse it are using a vegetable poison ten times as violent. Iodide of Potash, in proper combination, is regarded by the medical profession as the quickest, grandest and most powerful blood remedy ever known to man. Those who believe in revealed combinations und Indian foolishness are surely in a condition to become rather "cranky" in their ideas at any time. We assert uucferstandingly that Potash, as used in the manufacture of B. B. B., is not a poison, and the public need not place any confidence in assertions to the contrary. Why is it that in one thousand letters which we receive we never hear a word against its use? The truth is; B. B. B. is working such wonders in the cure of all blood poisons, scrofula, rheumatism, catarrh. etc.. that others are trembling in their boots, and cry aloud, "poison," "fraud," because they fear its triumphant march. Let any man or woman ask any respectable doctor or druggist if wc are not right. Do not be deceived, but go right along and call for B. B. B., and be cured. It is making five times more cures in Atlanta tuan all other blood remedies combined. We don't say that others are poisons or frauds; we are not that easily alarmed, but we say ours is the best, and we have the proof. Send for our 32-page book, free, and be convinced.
