2 Agricultural Using Fertilizers ludiciously. Southern Cultivator. There is no subject ot more importunes to the South' rn tanner. It is applied with equal su-nifimtwo n.nv section that takes up tho u?e of commercial manures. T:>e Stato o! Georgia usrs more commercial fertilizer than any other Slate in the union, about $1*2,000,000 per annum being spoilt in purchasing it. Of tins sum it is sate to say tliut at l>>nsf one-iour'h ao^s to waste.? This is cause'* from t brce different errors. One is applying tli wr o:g fertilizer to the crop, the other is applying a' the wr mg time and the other putting certain parts of plant ood on soil that is already overstocked with the J ar'i ular ingredient applied Other minor matters figire in t e lo-* JS'ew lauds need no nitrogenous t< ilizers and conscqu ntly n>tralt ot >oda,co tonseed meil and bio m1 tankage need not he applied In fact if I hoy arc applied it lessens 1 lie production wlpc'i would bo made i; no lertiliier was applied. On the other hand, old soils need a liberal supply in order to produce sufllcient stalks and foliage <o obtain a largo and healthy stalk, vigorous enough o sustain a good crop oi fruit, A b danced fertilizer is always noc ?1. . OPOH J All KJ iuv i **? w ui highest ie? uith in the way of fruition. I is almost imp ssioie to ob.ain anything like speci" mens of fruit that approach per fection if there is not a I a'anor d ration, so to speak. It is not at all necessary that it be applio as a commercial fertilizer, for frequently sr.il contains an extra supply ? ! ? no element of plan! food and is deficient in others. The application of a complete fertilizer to such soil would mean that the portion suppled which was already found in oxees* would not only be thrown away, but would also be toial loss in other ways by destroying the production which would be ma ie through a comp'e'e fertilizer.? it will therefore he quite neces 8iiry to etudy the question very oirefully, not onlv lor different crops, but for dill rent soil*. 1 am an advocate of fertilizing; h i: it must be done judniously 11 order to deiive any benefit' 0111 it, or lier ao\ pp tits.?

There is no way of makinc j farming pay-except by making ioach day contribute something to the profit of the farm. Line upon | line, precept upon precept, day by day?these are tho rules of 'successful farming. Neglect, indifi'arenee, lack of continuous la b ?r?these are latal. Nature ! never stRn Is still. Work in her labora'or.v goes on every day in the year and every hour of the twenty four iu each day. The farmer mast imitate nature in hi-\ LI * ought to regulate his vork so as to secure the greatest e5u'ts with the greatest comn>rt. Ti:ere are periods of the \ ear when the weather does not permit him to work out of doors, j but these >!avs can well occupied abou! the housrt and til** I barn. -I ^ -? ^ r t. m moreover a i i mi is ? umihing machine, and-1 ho farming man h.ouid he thinking about farm i:)i? miv lods. Wo do not mean that tie should think of nothinc s'lse. >ut it he i* going to have ?ati*faction in, and good result; from, his work he must put him self into it. lie must put his thought upon his crop-, upon his soil, upon his markets.

Do no' suppose that you can make money on the lann in any happy-go lucky manner. What you want is methodical work, continuous work, intelligent work. The future belongs to the American farmer, lie lias done in this year work that has saved the whi le conn ry trocn serious disaster, but unless it. has saved the individual farmer from disaster he will take little "comfort in it.
