How and When to Sow Wheat.
Clemson College, Sept 15, 11?00.
Mr. Chu* Potty, Spartanburg,
S C? Dear Sir: Replying to your
favor of ttie 11th in regard to ihe j
preparation of the land and sow?
ing wheat in the Piedmont section
of this State, 1 submit the follow
ing suggestions:
(at Wheat delighta in a comparatively
fitiIT soil, or one containing
enough clay to give it the
proper consistency. If this soil
is tilled with small gravel the
drainage will be good. Tins in
very important to prevent freezing
out in winter.
The land should be ploughed,
harrowed and rolled until the sur-1
face is thoroughly pulverized before
sowing the seed. Not one
acre in a thousand is properly
prepared for wheat. If there is
a clay Rtihsoil it will pay to follow
in the turn plough furrow in
breaking with a long hull tongue
to break the subsoil without turn.
ing it up.
(t>> Time for deeding: The seed :
should be sown just before or just
after the first frost. If sown
early there is risk of injury from
the attack of the He*siao lly in
the faM, and of destruction by
frost in spring if it joints too
early.
If sown too late the risk of
winter killing is increased, and
ripening late increases the risk of
rust, hJimt Mint bleaching. Wheat
should ripen he fore excessive heat
prevail*.
(< ) Varieties: An a rule varie*
ties which have Keen acclimated
in this section in which they are
to he planted are more likely to
succeed than those grown under
entirely different soil and climatic ,
conditions. Varieties known as
Alabama, Red May, Georgia flint,
Blue stem or Purple straw. -The i
sec I, to prevent the attack of
stinking smut, should be either
scalded or treated with blue stone.
(One pound disolved in wntor will
treat five bushels.) Care in the
I
use of the blue stone is necesstuy i
to prevent injury to the <jerm of i
the seed.
(d"> Depth to Cover Seed: [Experiments
have shown that wheat '
does not ve<*itate satisfactorily :f
colored more than three inches in ; i
depth. If the seed are put in with j
a turn plough nmny are covered'
deeper than this and consequently!
a full stand is not secured. On
the contrary, where the wheat J
drill is used upon properly prepared
land, the seed are covered
uniformly at a depth less than two 1
inches, and hence less seed are
required to secure a atand.
(e? Fertilizing: If a luguminous
crop (nitrogen coliecting) precedes
the wheat it ia not necessary to
apply a fertilizer containing nitro
gen or ammonia Upon clay
lands upon which the forest
growth was of hard wood trees
acid phosphate will usually he
sufficient. If excessive quantities
of nitrnnnnmiD - - '
... w^vii\'\iq iuivuuiun lu t? tlSPtl i
there is danger of too much growth
of straw, causing risk of rust and
lodging.
Caution: If cotton seed meal in
one of the component parts of r
comp'ete fertilizer applied to
wheat, or if it is used as such, ,
care must he exercised to prevent
it from coming in contact with 1
the grain. Stands of grain are <
often lost l?v neglecting this pre (
caution. The cotton seed meal
ferments very promptly and
actively and destroys the germ of
the seed. Very truly yours,

Deaths in Darlington Have Been
Peculiarly Sad.
Two Young Men About to Marry
and Two Unde* Taken Away.
Mmj Pargan's Funeral.
Special to The State.
Darlington, Sept 20?The funeral
services of the late Muj Robt
L Dargan took place at the Presbyterian
church this uiornine and
the interment was at Grove nill
cemetery, both being attended by
a large concourse of sorrowing
friend* of the departed young
lawyer. The untimely death of
Maj Dargun is made doubly sad
by the fact that death preceded
the appointed time for his marriage
by just n little leas than ii4
hours. A peculiar coincidence
was in the recent death of Mr.
.John I) Baird, who, had he lived,
would have been married in a
ihort time.
The death of Maj Dargan is the
eventh that has occurred among
the young people of Darlington
during the past month, all of them
being prominent in matters religious
and social. Within two
months two young brides and two
prospective bridegrooms have
been removed from earthly scenes
? Mrs K C Lide and Mrs (? C '
Johnson, neither of whom had
been married two months at the
time of deuth: and the two young
janupinfii above mentioned.
Dtliur deaths iiinntiir the voun^ 1
people of the town this summer
have been: Mrs 10 () Woods, Mr. ?
Marten V Lido and Miss Daisy
Welling, a!' peculiarly sad.
