EDITOR SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR. Cotton on sandy land is much more subject to rust Ithan on clay land. Nitrogenous manures are leached away sooner on sandy than on clay soil. A good supply of vegetable matter in.the soil, slowly decom posing and furnishing ammonia, is a good preventive of rust. These facts point to the conclusion that rust in cotton is caused by the ex haustion of available nitrogen. If this is true, then it becomes impor tant to manure cotton on sandy land with a fertilizer containing ni trogen in a slowly available form. Cotton seed is not at all available. 1 have frequently noticed that where 1 have applied 50 to 75 bushels of cotton seed to wheat or oats on sandy land, the crop of grass after the grain is removed, is scarcely better than on unmanured land ; whereas if I follow the grain with peas, I find a considerable increase over those grown after unmanured wheat or oats. This seems to in dicate that the rains have leached out of the soil all of the nitrogen not appropriated by the grain ; while the residue of mineral mat ters not used by the grain, is still in the soil. In view of these facts, it is necess'ary either to adopt a dif ferent method of applying cotton seed to cotton on light land, or else to use some other nitrogenous ma nure. On this subject I request the views of yourself and your cor respondents. How would raw-bone answer as a manure in the case mentioned?i How would it do to bar off cotton at second ploughing and apply killed cotton seed, or other nitrogenous manure in the furrow?i LIVE OAK. Macon Co.. Ga., Aug. 16, 1879. The real nature of rust in cotton is not sufficiently understood to warrant much theorizing about it. The facts you mention, that rust prevails most on sandy lands and such as are wanting in vegetable matter, are well established, but the explanation of them is another thing. What is the function of the humus in the matter, is to say the least obscure, for it might be im agined to do several things-it changes the physical texture of the soil-it generates carbonic acid (which dissolved in water, might be termed the gastric juice of plants.) the substance:that is ever dissolving and rendering available the locked up plant food of the soil-it sup plies not only ammonia, but all oth er kinds of plant food. Your sup position may be the correct one, but if so, it can only be established by a long series of experiments such as having two adjacent plats alike in all other respects, except that on one, all thle nitrogen shall be applied before planting the crop, and on the other the same quantity shall be applied in successive doses. We say a "long series of experi ments," because it is only by repe tition, that the effects of varying seasons can be eliminated. One or even two agricultural experiments seldom or never settle anything. Your suggestion is a plausible one, and therefore worthy of test ing. You might try the compara tive effects of putting green cotton seed in drill, scattering acid phos phate on it and then bedding on them (doing this as short a per-iod before planting time as possible), and of tising the ordinary compost -of cotton seed and phosphate, in which the seed are par-tially rotted . and in condition to act more quick ly than green seed. You might also try putting a part of cotton seed in drill before bedding, and the re mainder in a side furrow as you suggest-either at first working orapr-tfrt n h eane ortasparndatloirst,gand the remande On feorme poccasions wfte rop. would supply nitrogen rather slow ly to the crop, and if your deduction = is correct, would meet the exigency quite well. Please experiment fully and give us the result.-ED. So. CULT. Success and Failure. t EDITOR So. CUT.-Mr. J. K. Thompson, of Wilcox Co., Alabama, requests me to give in the Cultiva tor my method of making oats, and with your permission, I proceed to do so. My experience in oats rais ing is quite limited ; and my suc cess confined mainly- to my 5 acre patch in Schley county, and that was due in a great measure, to a thorough breaking of a very fertile soil highly manured and favorable seasons. "Deepness of earth," we are taught in the parable of the farmer who went forth to sow, is essential in raising a good crop ; this we get by breaking up deeply, thus ena bling the land to absorb and retain moisture, and at the same time re leasing the plant food locked up in the substrata for use of the grow ing crop. I would then say, break up deeply and thoroughly and ma nure as highly as practicable, with cotton seed, using from 20 to 50 bushels per acre broadcast and sow in this latitude from about the last of Oct. to Dec. 1. Sow good seed of a rust proof variety at the rate of from one to four bus. per acre. On land that will make 100 bushels per acre, I should say 4 bushels would be best. I don't know what else I could say about oat raising ; and will therefore consume a little space about them as forage for stock. My experience is that mules do better on oats during the summer months than on corn and fodder. It is not necessary they should have any corn at all: they will look bet ter and work equally as well on an exclusive diet of oats as on corn and fodder. And oats are much cheap er, costing less to produce them, exhausting land less and are equal ly as "certain" a crop as corn. Be sides the land can, after the oats are harvested, be planted in cotton, or what is much better in peas and turned under with lime in the win - ter. By all means resort to oats, and then peas and lime. After harvesting my oats last year on my ~ 5 acre patch, I planted it in peas ; and in December last, turned the vines under and some 800 lbs. lime to the acre. I couldn't turn the vines under until they died and were partielly decayed. This year my an used 1,000 lbs. dissolved bone and 80 bushels cotton seed broadcast per acre, and planted the patch in cotton ; but the dry weath er materially injured the crop so y that it is a failure and he will not* get over a bale of cotton per acre. . It lacked "deepness of earth," I e think, and should have been brok- i en up, not less than eighteen inches. ( The cotton grew very rapidly, and C t of course, exhausted the moisture < in the same ratio, so that it obtain ed all the growth it got during the i dry weather, and it has grown none ( since ; and at this writing, the stalks t are bent down with bolls, the bolls < being fully grown to the top of the stalk. I think it as necessary that t farmers should tell their failures as their successes. J. R. RESPASS. Butler, Taylor co., Ga.C W\ooD ASiHEs.-The value of t. bes It as a fertilizer, depends principally upon the Potash and Phosphoric i Acid they contain. The percentage of these varies largely, in ashes < from different woods, varying from 10 per cent to 24 per cent for the a former, and 4 per to 12 per cent ~ t for the latter. This would give not i far from four to five pounds of pot ash to a bushel of ordinary mixed unleached ashes, which, reckoned at 4} cents per pound-the present market value of potash in the comr; mercial fertilizers-would give the| value of a bushel as from 18, to 22}| cents. With due allowance for the| Phosphoric Acid and the Limo-| the latter making up the largest| part of the ashes-it may be seen| that a bushel of unleached ashes, is worth from 25 to 30 cents at the l present time. Ashes, to secure the best results, sho:dd be thoroughly mingled with the soil. In this way, the bsst physical, as well as chemical effects are obtained. It is self evi that crops requiring larger amounts 1of Potash, will be the most benefit-j ed by the application of ashes, as the root crops, cabbage, tobacco, etc. Forty to fifty bushels per acre, is a good application.-Amnercan y Aricnlturist. e7Iiscelala coils.
