Due to the progress made by tlie cnraoany in its improvements, lame amounts wore expended during the month for oomtruction purprR?s; the total amount disbursed by the company during the month In the South was $130,720 in excess of the total moneys contributed by the j South for transportation Duroose* according to figures announced today by Comptroller A. H. Plant, showing the results of operation of the company for the month of July 1916, compared with the same month in 1915 and 1914 excius've of interest, rentals and other income charges. The comparison with 19 14 is made for the reason that in 1915 the effect of the business depression was reflected through the revenue; of the company. Gross revenue, July 1916, $5,481,4 75, an Increase as compared with 1915 of 1181,919 or 3.43 per cent, 'find ft decrease ns compared with 1914 of $392,946 or 6.69 per cent.

Or take a cedar brush and drive them out. I have done this, and they kept going and did not return. Methods of Crimson Clover. "With peas on the ground to turn under would you plow them under and let the land lie a few weeks bei fore sowing crimson clover seed, or I would you disk down the peas and sow the seed without turning them under?" You will have the best chance for the clover by disking down the peas and then turning them under and then so'zing the clover seed. Or you i can disk down the peas without turning the crop under entirely. Difficulty in Common Names. "I ordered some crimson clover j seed In Richmond, and when it enme it was labeled "Red German Clover." Is this as good as the crimson clover?" ~ This is simply the bother of common names. It is very common in Virginia to call crimson clover German clover, and the seedsman marked it red because he also has the whiteheaded sort. Where 1 live people mainly call it scarlet clover.I when it is not scarlet at all, but truly crinisor. TrtfnPum incarialuni is its botani'ai name, and the c'" fer you have is doubtless erimson cl'?ver. Starting Alfalfa. "I am going to sow some alfalfa on red clay soil. I have red clover growing well on part of my farm. Can I inoculate for the alfalfa with soil from the clover field? How much lime should I use on heavy clay soil well drained?" I No, you cannot Inoculate for alfalfa with soil from the red clover field. That would inoculate for any other true clover, the Trifolium family, but the alfalfa is of a different genus. The best way will be to get |an artificial culture to inoculate the seed. I have tested several of these I for several years, and have found I them good. Use not less than a ton (of slaked burnt lime an acre or two I tons or more of ground limestone if lit can be had. Use 400 pounds of acid phosphate an acre and 25 pounds of seed and sow in late August in your section | The Moon Superstition. "What is the origin of the idea about planting in the dark or the j light of the moon, and why are some j people so firmly convinced that the ! moon influences thipse things? It does not hold good in experiments I have tried, but as there has been some argument over it, I would like to have your opinion." The I-eiturr Fever. In the winter of 1914-1.1 Southern farmers were taken with a fever for planting early Irish potatoes, and I received hundreds of letters asking about the crop. I did all In my power to prevent their going into crop, for at that time the North was full of old potatoes selling for about 20 cents a bushel, and I was sure that this would bring disaster to the Southern early crop. The result showed that I was right, and doubtless there are many who wished that they had taken my advice. Now another fever has struck them, and daily I am getting letters from farmers asking for full information about growing lettuce in frames for winter sales. Many fail | to understand that trucking or market gardening Ib a distinct business from general farming, demanding more cash capital, more labor and more fertilization, as well as skill I Q ml If ?1 aH A f (ho hnolnaoa A ! farmer dabbling in a little truck for northern shipment will almost invariably produce an interior article land will be at the mercy of the railroads and commission men, while the skilled truckers, with their organization and sales agents all over the North, have an advantage over the isolated farmer, not only in being experienced and skillful in the work, but with better rates on their carload lots already sold when they leave. Last winter the lettuce crop grown by these skilled men was a very profitable crop. Then farmI ers hearing of this at once assume jthat they can do as well, when as a ! rule a season following a very successful season is always looked upon with doubt by the experienced men, as they know that the success of the previous season will make many increase their area and new men to ,try the crop, and the result is apt to > be a glut and loss to all. Las* TUESDAY, SEPT. 5, 191 fi. WANT TO KNOW MASSEY year's early potato crop was a failure, and of course man ydropped out, so that the crop this spring was a very profitable one, and the chances are that next spring many more will be inclined to rush in and use ugiiiu. Lettuce is grown in the South largely In frames under cotton cloth. Good lettuce is grown by skillful men in this way, who fully understand the nature of the crop and the temperature to try to maintain. They also understand that the manure for the frames must be prepared months ahead and turned and well rotted, for fresh manure is or' far 1ms use. They understand that they must stuff the frames with rotten manure and then urge the growth of the crop by heavy dressing! of high-grade fertilizer and nitrate; of soda to push it along, and that the man who tries to grow it with fertilizer alone will not make the best heads. They know too that lettuce demands plenty of moisture, and the best growers have irrigation pipes over the beds to maintain the needed moisture, for if the beds are allowed to dry out the crop will, be small. The variety mainly grown is the Big Boston, but some May King is! also grown, and heads earlier than the Boston. Then some of the best1 growers have found that the cloth is not always sufficient, and they have run steam pipes through the frames to ward off the cold on very cold t nights. All this means a very considerable outlay, and the cloth needsj renewal at least in two seasons. Glass sashes will make better lettuce and in the long run are cheaper than cloth. I have sashes that have been | in use for over ten years and are: still as good as ver, being made of cypress wood. To equip an acre of land with frames and sashes will cost probably $4,000, and cloth frames probably $f>00. The sashes! taken care of will be good for 20 years, and the better crops grown will soon more than make up thej difference. See for the crop to come in about Christmas should be sowed in late August and the plants set in the frames as soon as larce enough and the cover used when the nights get, frosty. For the crop to winter over for spring cutting, the seed should be sowed later in a protected frame to have the plants ready to set in January, and the frames that made the Christmas crop should not be replanted. for disease will be sure to drop in. 1 use glass only and sow hoots and radishes aftor the Chirstnias orop of lottuce and nse fresh soil and framos for tho lator orop. The winter and spring crops of lettuce often prove profitable, hut the farmer dipping into it will probably lose money at first, though he! may learn from experience how to! grow it. These shipping truck crops are very seldom profitable to' the gonerafl farm;er. To make; trucking a source of profit a man1 should be a trucker all through, and he located where he can have the advantage of organization with other truckers, for an isolated grower is badly handicapped.?The Progressive Farmer.
