HOW TO -MAKE A COTTON
CROP.
EDITOR STATE AG. JOURNAL:
"As time for cotton planting is
near at hand, I will try and give
your readers some of my experience
with cotton and its cultivation.
A thorough preparation of the
land is essential for a good cotton
crop, and the more thorough the
pr4paration, the better will be the
reaults. All lands intended for
cotton should be broken up in Janu
ary and February in order that all
the old stalks and vegetable mat.
ter may have time to decay before
planting time. Should any part ol
your land break up in elods, and re
main so until the middle of March,
run your sweeps over the land wher
it would be a little too wet for the
plow, and you will have a nice turn
seed bed. Land broken up early,
causes the grass seed to germinate
near the surface and in bedding you
kill out the earliest grass, and gel
the start. The earlier barnyard
manure is put~in the better, either
broadcast or in the drill, only twc
furrows should be thrown upon it,
in order to give a fresh bed for seed
-by splitting the middles just be.
fore planting.
Cotton rows should be laid off ii
proportion to the strength of the
land: say from two feet nine inches,
to five feet. I believe more cottor
is lost by having rows too wide that
too narrow. Guano same as barn
yard, only it should be put in au
near planting time as possible. -
I've never derived any benefit fron
second application after planting.
A good stand is very essential
without which you need not expeci
a good crop. The less seed sown
*[if a stand can be obtained,] th<
better; for cotton stainding thin ir
the drill before being chopped out
is less liable to lice, will not di4
out as much, and will grow off bet
ter, and make more cotton thar
when sown thick. No plow shoalk
ever be permitted inside of a cot
ton row, after the cotton is planted
except a sweep. Barring of cot
ton, I've no doubt, has cost ever'
farmer who has done it, one-fifth o
his crop annually. In barring off
the lateral roots are cut, all thi
dirt is taken from the young plants
the winds blow it down,- the rain!
'wash it up, and it is impossible fo:
the plants to grow, until'the ta]
roots extend below the furrow cu
by the plow, and then one-fifth is
.covered up by the plow in trying
to dirt it. My plan is, to have in'
beds as fresh as possible at plantini
time, to let my cotton come up be
fore the grass; start my sweeps
[Dickson] as soon as my cotton i:
up, then side as close as possible
not to cover the cotton entirely up
The consequence is, the first rail
washes the dirt (down around th<
cotton, covering the little sprigs o
grass, if any, and leaving a ridg
about two inches wide for the hoe
and hands willechop one-third mnori
land thus treated, than any othe
way I've yet seen, and leave tih
cotton standing up, and the latera
roots undisturbed.
- lways chop to stand the firs
(time, ie matter who says "blocki
out." And take pains and get ou
every sprig of grass the first timt
. and be sure and break the crus
and pull it from the cotton. I'v
had farmers to ask me 'why I wa
so particular about having the crus
brohen and pulled off. They~ though
the plow would cover up such place
You can't plow sufficiently clos
the first time to cover up such place
without covering the cotton, an
then yon countenance hands wh
are disposed to slight their work
a bad sign on the farm. I woul
not thank a man to block my col
ton, nor would I give one cent fc
any machine to do it. Cotto
choppers and cotton pickers havn
yet been invented, and never wi
.be in orr day and generation
You will have no trouble in pick
ing out, and your expenses will b(
one-third less than the old way.
Try it and report.

THE DRY EARTH PROCESS
IN THE POULTRY HOUSE.
The dry earth process can be
applied in a way peculiarly valua
ble to the farmer and gardener.
Ia this country, poultry are kel t
by everybody who owns land, from
a rood to a rui. But how few of
us have an idea of the value or the
quantity of nianure that can be
made from poultry. I have a pile
just now, as good as guano, as I
have every reason to believe, that
filled the dray three times. I
should say it -weighs over two tons;
and all this has been gathered out
of the fowl-house from some 50
fowls, 17 ducks, and 29 geese,
young anI old, since August last.
It was made in this way: Five
loads of dry, good black soil were
dumped into an empty stall in the
stable during last winter-in June.
I believe. This earth is used for va
rious purposes about the house
wherever it is needed, that is the
order. It very naturally came in
to use in the fowl-house, to keep
down the ammonia that can be
sme.led at some distance during
wet weather.
Next it was found that it was
easier to spread a few shovels of
eaith over the floor of a morning
than scrape up the place, as we had
been doing all these years. The idea
that we were making a very rich
compost-something very like gu
ano-followed some time after the
earth-spreading commenced. Then
we laid on the earth as thick as it
was necessary to keep the place per
fectly dry. The change is some
thing to be sufprised at, and it
pleases everybody concerned with
the poultry. Fully one-half of the
dry earth has been absorbed there,
and in'turn it has absorbed every
thing it came in contact with. The
mixture has nosmnell whatever, and
after beingbroken and chopped with
the spade is agreyish powder. As I
haesaid the heap is over two touns,
and is sufficient, if I am any judge,
to manure an acre of wheat, bar
ley or oats.-MoRG AN, in Queens
lander, (Australia).
'WATERING PLANTS IN SUMMER.
--Plants growing in the open ground
~and fully exposed to the sun, are fre
Iquently ruined by the very means
taken to save them-by watering in
hot, dry weather. Generally, merely
the surface of the ground is wet, and
Ithe moisture soon evaporates, leaving
the soil dry and hard--almiost imnper
vious to air as well as to the dews. But
this is not the only, nor the greatest evil
which results from the slight watering
plants get. The temnporary,superficial
moisture causes the roots to seek the
surface. where, in the intervals be
tween the waterings, the heat anid
drought destroy them. and the plants
become stunted or die outright. The,
remedy lids in a more thorough irri
~ation and in a different mode of ap
Splying the water. In the case of
young trees and large herbacious
plants, the best way is to care~fully
scrape a way the soil around them to
the depth of an inch or two, forming
a shallow basin into which sufficient
waiter should be poured to moisten
well the ground as deeply and as widely
as the roots extend. When the wa
ter has soaked in. the dry earth should
be returned, which,. will prevent a
speedy ev:apora~tion. Among sm~all
plants, which can not be treated in
ithis way, make holes with an iron rod
or a sharpened stake several inches in
depth and fill them with water which
will thus reach the deepest roots.

Origin of the Dollar Mark.
A writer in the Atlantic Monthly
has a curious paper on the origin of
the dollar symbol ($). In brief, his
theory is that the two parallel upright
marks may be traced back to the pil
lars of Hercules, and the S-like figure
is the scroll entwined around them.
According to tradition, when the Ty
rian colony landed on the Atlantic
c est of Spain. and founded the an
cient city of Gades, now Cadiz. Mel
earthus, the leader of the expedition,
set up two stone pillars as memorials,
over which was built a temple of Her
cules. As the temple increased in
wealth. the stone pillars were replaced
by others imade of an alloy of gold and
silver, and these two pillars, became,
in time, the emblem of the city, as a
horse's head became that of Carthage.
Centuries later. when Charles V. be
caine Emperor of Gertimny, he adopt
ed a new coats of arms. in which the
pillars of Gades or Cadiz occupied a
prominent position in the device.
Hence, when a new coin, the colonna
to, was struck at the Imperial mint.
it bore the new device-two pillars,
with a scroll entwined around them.
This coin became a standard of value
in the Mediterranean, and the pillars
and scroll became its accepted symbol
in writing.
The two horizontal bars which cross
the symbol of the English pound ster
ling are also thought to have a similar
origin. In the same paper the sym
bolic origin of the pillars of Hercules
is traced far back into the remote era
prior to the dispersion of the human
race from its Asiatic birthplace. They
are identified with the household pil
lars of the Scandinavians. and the idea
from which the concrete embodiments
spring is to be found alike in the
Sanscrit Vedas and in the glowing
imagery of the Hebrew poets. They
are the symbols of day and night, or
light and darkness. which to the dawn
ing intelligence of the Arian races,
were evidences of the Omnipotent,
and, to the Jewish pa,triarchs, tfie
work of a revealed Creator.
Josh Billings says: I will state
for tho information of those who
haven't had a chance to lay in se
cret wisdom az freely az I hav,
that one single hornet who feels
well can brake up a whole camp
meeting."
