HOW TO CULTIVATE COT
TON.
Nearly every farmer tbinks he
knows all about cultivating cot
ton; and notwithstanding nine
tenths of them always fail to
make a respectable crop, not one
of them ever respects that there
is the least fauit with the mode of
cultivation. but charges it to other
things over which he has no con
trol. It is impossible to convince
a large majority of farners that
they have anything to learn about
cotton culture ; but the fact
there- are few farmers that that
always make paying crops whilst
the large majority always fail to
do it, is the most conclusive evi
dence that the failuro results from
defective cuitivdtion.
As it is now too late in the season
to say anything about the prepa
ration and manurino, of land for
cotton, I will confine my re
marks to the management of the
crop.ftpr it is plan ted. Kiving
pla#ed 4he-- crp it is- rAJAV too
late to think of improving its con
dition by deep plowing where one
has a full crop planted ; for if the
farmei undertakes to go over his
crop with small plows to improve
the condition of the soil, thbe grass
will get the advantage of him and
far more tEafi hounterbalance the
good effected by deepening. his
soil, besides cansing him to have
to. do very hard and disagreeable
work th'rough thie entire season,
with a very light crop in the fall
as ths; result of his year's un
pleasant toil.
As sooin as the cotton is large
enough it should be sided with a
good scraper, but as it is probably
out of the power of the farmers for
whom I1 write to get this imple
ment, the best tingrn their reach
is a good turn plow, which should
be very sharp and run with the
bar next the cotton, with the han-'
dIes inclined to the right so
as to make the right hand
corner of its "utting edge go
about one inch deep, whilst the
point of t-hc plow merely shaves
off the grass bed. The hoe hands
sbould .follow with good, sharp
steel hoes, and ebop out, or rather
shave out the cotton, leaving, it in
banches' of about- three or four
stalks ?very twelve or more inches
according to the fertility of the
soil. The hoes should be taken
to the grindstone at noon and at
night and be kept very sharp to
enable the hands to do the work
without disturbing the soil about
the cotton ; for if the soil is broken
around the cotton a poor crop is
sure to follow. The after culture
should be done with sweeps or
some kind of cultivator that will
clean the whole row at one round,
and should not go over one inch
deep under any circumstances;
for if the surface roots are broken
every time- it is plowed a poor
crop is certain. As soon as the
danger of dying out is past, the
cotton should be thinned out to
one stalk in a hill. Be sure to
keep your cotton clean with the
least disturbances to the soil, and
you will be sure to get a satisfac
tory crop. The farmer. who pur
sues this plan can cultivate his
crop with ease to himself and
teams, and .keep it as clean as a
garden, and whilst neighbors of
the "old style" are sweating in
grass knee high he will be in a
state of ecstacy, singing Happy
land. Hlaving tried the above for
the last 25 years in cultivating
crops of every kind,.I confidently
recommend it- to my -brethren of
the plow and hoe.
The above artic!e in the Rome
Jornal, expresses my views as
well as my practice of cultivating~
eotton fully in all respects, cxceptt
the ads ocacy of baring the young
otton when sweeps cannot be
ad ringo of the young cotton
("ught to precede the plow, taking
the grass out first, which can be
done with less disturbance of the
bottom roots. If the hoes follow
the plow, they will cut so deep
into the narrow ridge as will
loosen the roots, causing much of
it to fall down which must be
supported by fresh earth drawn
around the plants. Not only is
the growth retarded and put
back for a week, but one hand
can accomplish but little over half
work. If the cotton is put in with
a seed planter the sweep if prop
erly managed, can be made to
shave off all the'grass up to ove
half an inch of the cotton, but it
must be regulated to shave only
one inch deep. The scrapers gen
erally in use in this section are
not of the most improved pattern.
The best is fistened to a flat piece
of casting, one inch t.Oick by 12
inches square, adjusted to run
only one inch deep, wh'ch lays
flat on the side of the rcw, and
yet the plow to which it is Asten
ed runs er.ect as common p*ows.
With such a sweep one hand an
follow with the hoe and douCe
the work that can be done afte.
the others now in use. The roots
'of the cotton are but few and
ought never to be disturbed by
the process of cultivation, if it
can be avoided, as the season
is short in this latitude, and the
cotton ought to be pushed for
waid as fast as possible. Hence
the necessity of working by the
:ime the cotton is up, and keeping
it clean for if- it once gets foul
then a hand can do but a little
over half work, and will not only
retard its growth, but will injure
the stand and without a good stand
a full crop cannot be made.
The same rule holds in the cul
tivation of 4orn. The roots ougbt
never to. be cut if possible, but
that cannot be avoided, wholly,
as the roots spread out so far and
keep so near the surface. After
the first plowing, the corn ought
to be plowed shallow, and laid by,
as nearly on a level as possible.
Still breaking the roots when it is
young, does not do so much in
jury to the corn as that of the
cotton, as it has time enough to
recover ; but during the last plow
ing~ it is all important to avoid
breaking the roots, for it then
needs ,all its roots to sustain its
growth and to hasten its maturity
before the drying suns of August
set in. Sometimes corn has been
plowed late and deep which made
a good crop>, rgvertheless. That
was owing to the fact that the
seasons continued favorable. It
is a dangerous experiment; corn
ought to. be laid by early, before
it is in the shot blade and plowed
as shallo w as possi ble as a general.
rule. I have made the best corn
when the last plowing was given
at the time the corn was shoulder
high,- -t~bgh the ground may
send up a growth of grass and
weeds, yet the corn with mature
before any ipjury can result. The
difuffy Nf ac'comiiishing this
arises -from the practice of plant
ing too much on the one. hand,
and waiting too long before the
cultivation commences on the
other. The working sometimes
should commence before the plants
are fairly up, as it will assist by
breaking the crust formed on the
surface by the hard rains. To
succeed wvell, a planter should
nevr'>ermit the grass and weeds a
to get the start of his plants. On'e
acre well cultivated will make
more than two acres half worked,
even though in tLt final working,
it may be thoroughly cleansed..

A clean poultry-house is indis
pensable, if the fowls are expected
to be healthy. It is a small job
to scrape, sweep ,and dust the1
floor and r.emove the droppings
twice or- three times a week during
feeding time. The droppings
should not be stored in the poul-1
try-house, but in a dry place;
packed in barrels, and kept for
use in the spring.

This Sarsaparilla1a combination of
vegetable alteratives--Stillingia,Man
drake,Tellow Dock-with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and.is the
most efficacious medicine yet known
for the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully
combined that the full alterative
effect of each is assured, and while
it is so mild as to be harmless even
to children, it is still so effectual as
to pu.rge out from the system thqse
impurities and corruptions which
develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
frm its cures, and te confidence
which prominent physicians all over
the country repose in it proves their
experience of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues
have accumulated, and are con
stantly being received, and as many
of these cases are publicly known,
they furnish convincing evidence of
the superiority of this Sarsaparilla
over every other alterative medicine.
So generally is its superiority to any
other medicine known that we need
do no more than to assure the public
that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.
