'FOUCale) WHEAT AFTER POTATOES. 8aec«Mf«l Wheat Grower Descrihea HI* Metho4s for the Benefit of Others. One of New Jersey’s farmers, who is advocate of fertilizers, and further- lore especially successful with his rheat, was interviewed by Rural New Torker with regard to this crop. Fol- >wing are some of the facts elicited |Auring the inteiview. Dr. Coombs, the ler in question, has 200 acres and 3ws corn, potatoes, wheat and hay. le'uses all stable manure on com and heavy dressings of fertilizers on pota toes. The success of his wheat depends largely upon the fertilization and culti vation of the potatoes. This is the way he prepares his land, as told in his own words: When the field has been in potatoes we do not plow for wheat. We always dig potatoes with a horse potato digger, and after this we complete the prepara tion of the field for wheat with a spring tooth harrow or with a cultivator and an Acme or other good pulverizing and crushing harrow, and afterward a Thomas smoothing harrow. We use a grain drill six feet in width with eight or nine tubes. As usual with these drills, the seed and fertilizer are put in separate compartments, but they pay out together through the tubes in rows seven to nine inches apart and are covered to the depth of two to three inches. We adjust the drill to the gauge of 500 pounds per acre. The quantity of seed we use per acre varies with the variety, also with early or late seeding. We have used one va riety, Martin Amber, at only three pecks per acre, and yet there could be seen no difference at any of the later stages of the growth of the crop between this and an other piece where one and a half-bu^els of the variety Fultz had been sowh; nor was there any difference in the yield. In late sowing where the tillering is not apt to be so good there should be an in creased quantity of seed used. Of late we have been using Rochester red, and at the rate of two bushels per acre. I like to get my wheat all sown by Sept. 27. This is early enough to admit of a good start before winter, and it is late enough when well fed with fertilizer to have a good chance to escape the Hessian fly and other injurious insects. Since we have used fertilizers instead of farm manure on the wheat I, in common with nearly all grain growers, sow very much later than formerly. Of late years I have invariably fol lowed my potato crop with wheat, and as I fertilize the potatoes liberally, say 1,500 to 2,000 pounds of potato manure per acre, I do not use much fertilizer op the wheat crop, finding from experience that enough of the plant food from the potato manure is left to insure the Wheat and subsequent grass crops. I use the complete manure, “A” brand, say, 250 to 300 pounds per acre. If the field has not been in potatoes or other crop that has been liberally manured, then I use the complete manure for heavy soi!»r§Q0 poundg p«r acre, or the complete manure for general use. This may seem a large quantity of a high grade complete manure to use on the wheat, but I am led to adopt it as the re sult of a practical experience in my early use of these fertilizers. I do not use farm manure for wheat. What I have I use on corn; sometimes on grass lands after mowing. Prevention of Swarming. No practical method has been dis covered for either preventing or control ling natural swarming. We have been told of the queen restrictors, of clipping the wings of queens or the “jump” method, and how swarming is prevented by extracting from the brood chamber, etc. All these have some effect in re tarding and preventing the issue of a natural swarm, that of extracting from the brood combs being the most effeo tual. When an apiary is worked for comb honey it is not advisable to dis turb the brood nest. A colony seized with the swarming fever will surely ewarm, even though there is an unlimit ed amount of surplus room in the hive. It is when the bees have this fever that a method for prevention of swarming if needed. The queen trap is the only thing that will serve the apiarist when he has his hives all equipped with sections, and is either away from home or very busy. If not ready to attend to hiving a swarm when one issues, it will not be necessary to do so if there is a trap on the hive. If a swarm issues from a hive provided with sections, the combs ought not to bo disturbed for three days, at which time the queen cells should be removed, and the queen that came off with the swarm reintroduced. Any other queen will do as well, and can be safely given the bees if a change of queens is desirable. No ewarm will issue from that hive until the next season.—American Apiculturist. Harvesting Grains. When the heads bend over and the straw takes on a yellow tinge it is time to begin harvesting. If any doubts ex ist examine the kernel. It shoufd be fully grown, plump and yet soft enough to be easily broken with the finger nail. It is best to bind as fast as cut and put In stocks as fast as bound, or as soon as possible. Both grain and straw ripen better standing erect in the stock with an upward ventilation among them than when lying down and exposed to the sun. Large stooks are preferable to very small ones, as a less surface is ex posed to the weather. Cotton cloth is eo cheap that each farmer should have hay caps enough to cover his hay when obliged to leave it out ever night, and he could then use it to cover the tops of his grain stooks whenever he saw ap pearances that would indicate approach- bag rains. If the grain is bound by hand, says American Cultivator, authority for the foregoing, the binder should be in- Vtructed to reject all large weeds in quaking his bundle. Bees consume six times as much honey in April as in December. Many bees starve during the spring season, because this fact is not remembered. It is said that there are more old well established varieties of corn grown in Connecticut than in any other state in the Union. There is no vegetable where the qual ity of the seed exerts a greater influence on the crop than the onion. Rural New Yorker No. 2 is a potato of unusual promise. Nothing is gained by setting sweet po tato plants too earlv. ROTATION OF CROPS. Advantages Gained by an Intelligent Employment of This Practice. The two chief and general reasons why rotation of crops is necessary, ac cording to L. H. Bonham, secretary of the Ohio State Board of Agriculture, are: 1. For the conservation of the soil. 2. For the sake of economy. Re moval of crops takes from the farm nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. Reckless farming in time depletes the soil below the point of profitable produc tion, but the soil is practically inex haustible, since an acre of soil to the depth of one foot contains nitrogen. 8,000 pounds; phosphoric acid, 15,000 pounds; potash, 12,000 pounds. Commercial fertilizers are a poor de pendence for keeping up fertility. They can only feed the crop in part, and are too costly to be used in storing up fer tility for future crops. Fertility is con stantly being unlocked by chemical ac tion, by frost and moisture. Nitrification is the most important chemical operation in nature, without which we cannot conceive of continued fertility. The conditions favoring ni trification are: 1. A porous soil. 2. Warmth, as nitrification is dormant at 42 degs. and most active when warm enough to decay meat and vegetables. 3. Moisture in regular and moderate sup ply. Clover and grasses shade the soil, re tain moisture, render it porous andfavoi nitrification while filling in vegetable matter. Nature rotates crops. When the for ests of oak and hickory have been re moved a thick growth of evergreens ap pears. In New England, where white pine forests have been removed, the maple, chestnut and oak have sprung up. A similar rotation is found in timothy meadows, followed by blue grass. Besides a general there is a special de pletion by each variety of crops. As each crop seems to have special wants wo increase crops by a change, but chemistry has not been able to tell us why. Plants vary in power to appropriate food. Clover, we say, has a high power to gather nitrogen, while wheat has a low power; hence clover precedes wheat well. Wheat grows mostly in cool weather, when nitrification is slow or dormant; hence the soil for wheat must be rich in nitrogen. On the other hand, corn grows wholly in warm weather; hence it needs less nitrogen to make a crop. Plants have favorites in plant food. Wheat, for example, takes 1^ pounds of potash to every 3J^ pounds of phos phoric acid. Potatoes take 3}^ pounds of potash to one pound of phasphoric acid. Plants take food only in soluble or gaseous form. Ibis a wise arrange ment that soil does not dissolve as free ly as sugar or salt, or one soaking rain would ruin us. Stirring the soil favors disintegration; hence plowed or hoed crops should follow grasses. Grasses are conserves of soil and pre vent washing and leaching. Rotation checks some kinds of insect ravages and fungi. The corn root worm does not feed on clover roots. The clover root borer does not bore com roots or roots of wheat, oats, etc. The smut of wheat does not attack com, etc. Growing a variety of crops in intelli gent or scientific rotation is good econo my. It divides the labor of the year, gives regular employment the year round and has many advantages of great significance. Old or New Meadows. Some old meadows are better than some new meadows close by, while others are not so good. Old meadows on well drained land that has been regu larly top dressed, mowed at the right time and otherwise properly cared for, will yield hay of a more uniform char acter and quality than most new mead ows. But old meadows, or lands that have not been drained or top dressed, on which the grass has been allowed to ripen seed before being mown, or has been heavily pastured, will not yield as large crops, nor will the hay be as good as might have been grown from new seeding. Furthermore, all old meadows are liable to become foul with weeds sown by the winds or scattered with the manure. Against reseeding is to bo counted the cost of breaking up, of the seed, and of the danger of failure to se cure a stand. Old meadows generally consist of dhe or two grasses, while new meadows should contain at least half a dozen. The question, therefore, as to whether it is best to plow up an old meadow or not must be determined by its condition and the needs of the farm. —Jersey Bulletin. Tent Caterpillars. Professor Comstock says: “There are many species of caterpillars that feed upon the foliage of the apple, pear and quince. The more conspicuous of these are the tent caterpillars, which are so called because they live in colonies in large silken tents. These may be read ily destroyed by’ removing the tents with the tent caterpillars. As this tent nerves merely as a residence, the caterpillars leaving them and spreading over the trees to get their food, care should be taken to remove the nests early in the morning or on a rainy day, at w’hich time the insects are in the nests.” We truly believe De Witt’s Little Early Risers to be the most natural, most effective, most prompt and economical pill for biliousness, indi gestion and inactive liver. Governor Tillman has had the far mers in his breeches pocket and the freedom of breeches pocket is all he has given them. He proves his friendship for the poor man by recom- meding that his poll tax be trebled and that he be put on the chain-gang for failure to pay. From the commencement of the sea son to the present time there has been shipped from Georgia over 500 car loads of peaches to Northern and Fas ti rn markets. Growers have realized a handsome income from their or chards. The average price has been about $1,500 per carload, or over $750,000 for the crop.
