FIRST WORKING OF COT TON. By the time the corn ig disposed of, cotton will need its first work ingj-. To avoid I-getting behind" it is very important that these first workings should be begun as early and pushed forward as rap idly as possible. Not a moment's time should be last. Just as soon as the cotton is up, the ground on each side of it should be lightly scraped off, either with scraper, sweeps or barrow. Something that can run very near the cotton will kill incipient weeds and grass, treak the crust, &c., and yet not cover up the cotton. The dirt scraped off being thrown in the middle will cover up the young grass there and leave every thing clean but the narrow strips where the cotton stands. Follow now with hoes and chop out lighily and rapidly. The bringin.g down to final stand had better be left for the next working. Opinion is much divided as to what constitutes a "stand." It 'inust necessarily vary with width of rows-the wider the rows the thicker the stalks should stand in the drill, other things being equal. Wherever the nature of the land (as bottom lands) produce dense, luxuriant growth, greater distance must be given to admit air and light and prevent rotting of the bolls. Mr. Dickson's plan of leav ingfrom two to three stalks, at the distance apart of the width of a No. 2 Seovill's hoe, when first pub lished, was opposed by many. We should be very glad to have the views of our readers on this point now after the experieuce of four or five years. On the sandy lands along the coast where Sea bland cotton is cultivated, such crowd in- will not answer. The stalks will run up without throwing out a branch for eighteen inches or two 1etet from the ground. Mr. Sam41ueIl Banett, the wortr Secre tarN. Georgia State Agrieultural Socety anr uite an extended investiotion of the point in ques tioln C:ne to the conlclusion, that the nature of the land decided whether it was best to leave one. or three stalks in a hill-and that matter had to be tested by each one for himself on his own farm no general rule on the subject could be laid down. It. is altogeth er probable that besides the na tnure of the lad, the length or sh1ortness- of the season would hiave a controlling inliuence. Mlr. lhar niett's observations were made lriinci pal ly in the imiddlhe portions of the "cotton belt." WIDE AND NARRlOWI ROWS. l'.islToR SOUTHERN CUI;TIVAToI. --i notice. in the April No. of the ('aira"or (page 123,) that Mr. Ge. iC . Dixon claimns that there is mosre mio?ner in four feet rows than t her i-i ii three feet. notwithi standing thes. thriee feet rows madL(e tw~o po Iuds seeds. cotton more than four fee t rows, (in 3lr. J. 13. 31.'s experimenti.) lie goes on to ex plain why it is the best to have fouir leet ro w5, and hiis reas5on is that t hey save l:bor and gu ano, which is moner. I believe that cotton ini four I'eet rows crowded in the drill wi!! mature earlier, if it is cultivated shail!ow. A g.reat many inien dislike wide mows, giving as a reason, that, the ground is not shaded between thenm and that it e~xhaust5 land1( mnore where the sun has fuill power upion it. I agree with them under their modes of culture; viz.. turning up~ laid with Long T1urn Plhoughs andI Shovels inl id-s u mer. or if the Sweep is used, it is generally put in very I never experimented myself. iBut last ye: I had a freeman lay ing~ off rows, which I intended to hothree feet. But I n'ticed where lie finished the field that in the last acre or two, lie then run them about four feet. These stood1 thle drought better, and was mchi the best COtton I had in the field. It was~ all fertilized, left ielk in the drill, two and three stalks in a hill. and was cultivated shaillo,w. A Sr mseni:n.
