Moat fermere thought they had at. laat hit upon the plan of ralaing grain crop# for atocc, aa the yield of oata that aeaeon per acre waa In many caeca felly ire tlmra greater than corn and the coat of growing an aero In oata waa mpfe Iteathaa growlnar as acre in corn. But alaoe the year 1882 the oata crop haa been a complete lallure in Monroe county, ▲ few yean alnoe a gentleman from Hancock oouafty spent a night with the writer. Alter supper the subject of growing oata came up, and this gentleman remarked that Mr. W. J. Nortben, of Hancock, Ifed been heard to agf that hflad kept ah aocn- rafe aoeoant of (he tffiferent farm prodaeta raised or grown on hi* farm, and that be bad realised more clear money on sheep than on any other farm product; and that heat to sheep be baa realized more clear profit from growing oate. Aa the season la near at band, when formers sow feu oats. It occurred to the writer that the readers of the Cul tivator would be pleased to bear from Mr. W. J. Nortben on the subject of oata raising. Does Mr. Nortben sow (Bed rust-proof oata or has be found . acme Variety lees likely to bo killed by ward winter*? A abort time since I received a letter from Mr. John H. Dent, o£ Cherokee, Ga., and be sug gested that I should write an article on eats for the Cultivator. Mr. Dent •ays in his section of Georgia the Red rust-proof oats are a failure as they are too lleble-to be killed by cold win. ten. He said for a number of years be was enthused on the subject of Red rnst-proof oaUibut be. has now aban doned them. He thinks they are suit ed for a more tropica! climate where the winters are mild and the springs are hnmld. Mr. Dent Mys: "The oats I want la a hardy variety that stands cold and grows tail, for I value straw as much as Urn grain. I want long straw so (hatl-caiaoM Ugh ami have a heavy etnbble to thrir under for the benefit •f the food ” This, I presume, is the variety that most formers are after. Isfe.po.lMar freia you, Mr. Editor, on v tbU Qoetlioni< For a number of years * “ 4M* «lnb in Baldwin oonntV has axperi OHM ting in growing large taps of oats, but 1 do rtot know what variety is sown. Some large yields have been published as grown by men In that section. In 1882, Mr. W. F. Dewberry, who is a neighbor of mine, hsd a field of eight acres that he thought made 100 bushels per acre; he did uot, however, measure them. Dr. Most, of Monroe, made 137 bushels that year on an acre. Some six or • years ego, Mr. Jim Rose, of oonnty, made 138 bushels per aere ou a plat of eight acres. Three wears (fob the writer made sixty-four onsbels Red rnst-proof oats on an acre Of land'that was only moderately good land; but 1q4877 the writer sowed cu bf Aagaet oats In a Add land he bad in cotton at ing lie gave his cotton. The yield- waa twenty bushels per acre, and aa the cost of the crop was simply prfcfl If east ta out them they did not •aeitofef them down at the crib over .V lend; but IQ187 M*#: the last piowlr five cents per bushel. i per Baton the following year he sowed again at the last plowing of cotton, but August and September were very hot aaddry so that the oats were badly killed by beat. Of til the varieties of oats sown In this section, none have yielded such large crops as the Red mat-proof; bat they have become too Uncertain a crop to rely ou. Does the editor know anything about the "Tom Smith" oats? It is said of them that they grow tall on poor laud and yield well. If such is the fact, they are rnst-proof, it would be for the formats to give them a fetal. In the August number of the Cwlh'wUor, for the year 1884, page 237, BUI Arp says seed eats and wheat OQfbt to come from south of the sec tion In Which they are sown. Let the fencers also bear from the editor ou this subject. Has be tried the plan of •owingfete from more eoathfeii lati tude, ini If so, what was the result? One*! fey neighbors, Mr. A. C. Jack- eon, brought some oats from Mscon oonnty, known In that section as the MOtianmAn** oats, because Mr. William of Dooly, first brought They are, bow- vtw. »un> •• the “Bart” oats. I obtained one bushel of this variety of onfe and sowtfd them the 1st of March; I need acid phosphate on them at the rate of 200 poonas per acre. The oats r iw tall bat the grain was very light. shall not sow them •again. Men dlfier in regard to the tUrie to sow Bed rust-proof onfe. Capt. MoMnlUn, of Mofiroe, who was a very successful oats grower, said frpm the 20th of September to tho-W of October was the proper time to seed that variety of u Mr. Thoigas Marshall, of Mon- so a' sueoeMfol oats or. prefers to begin sowing the of December and sow until b. My observation is that early sown oats are heavier than late ibfea. If eOtton seed wonld admit of •owing on land the last week In Sep tember without coming up, I wonld always sow at that time; but to use cotton coed on oats, a farmer baa to wak until the last of November, which la antirely too late to apw that variety pf oats. In Coweta' cohntv, some light or ten years ago,, the farmers towed pats in-their corn'and; cotton Mds Mfef • fest wofkinf, apd the rield oh somC occasions was enor- nous. About the same time some da were reported from aa by sowing in cotton corn Mads at the last working. F. C. Tuknkr.

Next to •proof oata we have vein ed fee Burt oata. bat several years since discarded all other kinds for the rust-proof^ as it Is generally known. If ptember and the eariy they will not be killed by the cold or the severest, winters in csiddls Georgia; and we have uniform ly made a good yield when thus man- agbd. If sown later In the winter, or the early spring, they stand a doubtful chance, and not more thsa one time in five will they pay for the labor of sow ing. Land upon which the oals are to be sown should be broken with a two horse plow jdst as early os the soil can be tnroed and tbe vegetable matter wait covered up. About the 10th of September, after the manure has bqen dish ibnted over the surfoce, wc sow tbe oats at an average of two bushels to the acre, and barrow them in nicely and well. Stable manure and cotton seed are here found a most excellent fertilizer, and wo-do not know that wo can corftmend anything belter. The cotton se6d Ste crashed before being applied, to prevent germination. Treated in this way any ordinary fat should average thirty-five bushels of oats to tlte acre, and realize one hun dred per cent, on the cost, if the crop sell at'forty cents per bushel. Oats cannot be raised with uniform success if slovenly planted. The land, In our opinion, should be thoroughly prepared and the seed deposited upon a mellow, fertile bed, thoroughly pul verized. It may be that we can take a Disc barrow aud go over much more ground and leave it in fair shape as to appearances, bat we doubt' if the • sue cess can be made equal to the yield of a deeply prepared and thoroughly pul verized soil. We have tried purenas Ing seed south of ns with no apprecia ble benefit. The great trouble with the oats crop has been lack of preparation and lor tilizaticn, and seeding at tbe wrong season. Cotton occupies the attention of farmers in September and October and they are unwilling to employ ad dltional labor to put in this .valuable crop. The teams stand idle in the sta blcs, or worse, they are put into tbe field to glean tbe last vestige of vegetn ble matter from the soil, and the gold en opportunity for an abundant harvest ialost, to secure a crop that frequently costs ns more money than we receive for it. When wo get ready, in mid winter, to put in the crop, the oats are badly scratched into the wet ground and left to freeze out and die witbeut roots or fertilizer to stirhulate them in 1l»e struggle for life. Every form that is large enough to have a gin should hkve a cotton seed erosber, ami as fast as the cotton is f inned the seed can be utilized for oats, fthe area is reduced, the land properly- prepared and fertilized, and the Red Uust-proof oats sown the latter part of .September, in Middle Georgia, an abundant crop, in our opinion, will be assured. The largest yield of oats we oyer made was from an acre sown on the 7th of November. Everything that witfeor was fovorable fbr a good crop. We nave not been able to repeat that xperiment since. .in our opinion our farmers make a real mistake in relying'upon corn for sir teams. We are glad to have this question suggested just at this time bv our correspondent, as it is one of vast import and should be considered by oar readers. If we can supply our teams with other groin grown in the winter and withont cultivation, we then have the more lime to devote to cotton and other surplus crops for an Income to the farm. Let every farmer sow five acres for each mule and see that it is well done at the proper time and the question of stock food w ill be setiled. — *S’ou/Aern Cultivator, roe, who ffrowc lOth Christmas. ex i th EDMaragiBK Tobacco Caltur* At the recent meeting of the State Board of Agriculture, the following resolutions Introduced by Mr. Terry were adopted: Whereas, in the opinion of this Board a diversity in the products of the State has become necessary in order to advance the material resources of the State; and, whereas, great in terest it being manifested in every E art of the State as to the practica- illty of introducing tobacco culture; therefore, Retolvtd, That $1,800 be appropri ated tor the purpose of making a pr&o- cal test in the culture of tobacco, fifty dollars to be given to one farmer in aatfii county aud a premium of $100 to tbe former reporting the best result, the tanner to whom the appropriation is to be given to be selected by a com mittee of three practical farmers in each county, appointed by tbe Com- miMloner of Agriculture.

St SOT Mem tlte faaaaiarjr af His a—MfUl fftemOm t . {8feeM le the Rm York'World.) Washwotoh, October 26.—A Mead cf Senator Butler, of Sonth Carolina, said to-day: "It is trnr, as the World has stated, that Senator. Boiler baa •topped going to the State Department and it is also true that his colleague go there any more. The exact reasons have uot been stated but Senator Butler was not offended with the Secretary of State hnosnif Ife did not promote bis sou to the Conn- late of Marseilles. It would have been natural for Mr. Bayard to have paid Mr. Butler the courtesy ot promotion his sou, bnt the fact that he did not wonld not have been a caase for griev ance on the part of Mr. Butler. The reason why Mr. Butler has stopped going to tBe State Department is be cause Mr. Bayard treated him with great rudeness. "One,-day Ife called on him to pre sent the claims of a gentleman for tbe Venezuelan mission. As he entered Mr. Bayard'SVoom he said: " ’Are you going to give my man the mission that f wrote you about' 1 ” “ ‘No, no, uo,’ said Mr. Bayard, al most withont lurning hit head. He then began' ah attack upon Senator Butler on account of the Morgan ap, pointmonU Mr. Butler repudiated all responsibility for that appointment. He said that be had carried this respou sibility before the public, and had said nothing, but that no one knew better than Mr. Bavard that be was in no way responsible for Morgan. He bad not even asked to have him appointed Mr. Bayard’s manner was so offensive and bis charge so unjust that the South Carolina Senator became very angry^ He drew himself up very stiffly an< started to go. Mr. Bayard, to concili ate him, then began to ask him abont the case of the man he had presentee for the Venezuelan mission, but Mr. Butler brusquely declined to say another word on the subject "Two da vs after this interview Sen ator Butler’s candidate was appointed Butler has not gone to the State De partment since then, and will not so long us Mr. Bayard is there. The South Carolina Senator, if he were asked about this matter to-day, would disclaim having nny irrievance against the Secretary. He simply came to the conclusion that he would uot have anything to do will) him. Senator Wade Hampton dropped Mr. Bayard’s acquaintance for another reason. He made a request i*f the Secretary to transfer a consular friend of his to another point, if this request had been refnsed Mr. Hampton would not have complained, but the Secretary treated him with great rudeness, and made no answer to his request." The stories that some ol the Sena tors tell of their treatment at ttie hands of tne Secretary almost sur pass belief. The gratuitous rude- nesa shown by Mr. Bav&rd to his old colleagues is hard to understand. Sen ator McPherson, of New Jerscv, called upon him the other day, and the first thing Mr. Bayard said to bim, before the Senator bad opened bis mouth, was: "Be brief, sir; my time is val uable," as if tlte Senator were a des perate office-seeker, who was making au unwarrantable trespass upon his attention. Gov. Maiming, one of the leading men of South Carolina, a man of high social position, early in the history of the Administration wrote letters to the President and the Secre tary of State, indicating a desire to go abroad The President wrote him a very polite note, saying that the mat ter had been referred to the State Department. Mr. Bayard never an swered ubeJGovernor's letter, although he had beefe.a guest in his house in South Carolina, and was under num berless obligations cf courtesy to him. There is not a Democratic Senator here who has not had an experience of a disagreeable character wdth the Secre tary of State. Mr.^Ba^fitlBs supposed to be pl&nniug,a'brilliant foreign pol icy, and has advanced views upon the subject of tbe Nicaraguan Caual. Whatever he may propose, ho may be certain that R wilP be**kjH«d in the Senate, as he has lost'iiis»hold on all his friends there. He has, by his course this summer, utterly destroyed ail possibility of bis hating any sap- port firom Congress on any foreign policy that ho may bare ou hand, flc will f>e practically reduced to the posi tion of a mere figurehead withont influenoe among bis political associates, aud without any future iu politics. —Re$r Admiral J, n.

A Clock PodSte* tmippod. A short distance from Lancaster, last Tuesday, savs the Charlotte 03- server of the 23nJ, a white msn who had been peddling clocks was tied up and severely wMppcd by two young men for an. insult given to a youni lady. It seems that the peddler h iy. visited Lancaster county a few mouths ago, selling clocks at exorbitant prices. His customers being mostly negroes, he took what money they could give him and then made them secure the balance by mortgage on cows, hogs or anything else that the poor negroes had. Last week he returneti to Lan caster to collect these mortgages, and while riding through the country stopped at a house where he found & young lady alone. He was very for ward in his conduct and unblushingly offered her an insult, whereupon she ran from the bouse to afield where her two brothers were et work and told them <Jf what had occurred. They hurried to the house, but finding the man gone they mounted their horses and put out in pursuit of him. It was not long until they came up with him, when they pulled him firom his buggy, tied him with a line, and throwing the line over the limb of a tree they palled him up until he-tip toed the ground, pulled off his coat and then larruped bim soundly. The clock peddler begged -pitifully, offered to give them one linnatad dollars, be side his horse - and boggy, if they would not whip bim, bnt tbe induce ments did no good. Thev gave him one hundred lashes, and be was then permitted to move on—a sorer if net a wiser peddler. A WU4 a«MM M aa Ohte Ttwm.

Last Friday an interesting case was argued before Judge Roatli, in the I Probate Court in this village, the facts ] being as follows: Dr. W. A. L’ulbreath had made application for letters ofl administration on the estate of his brother, O. T. Culbreath, claiming | that Mrs. Fannie Culbreath, the widow I of O. T. Culbreath, had waived her | right to administer. Mrs. Culbreath denied that she had waived her right j or consented for Dr. Culbreath to ad minister. She claimed titat the prop erty belonged to her children, and she | regarded it as her duty to administer on the estate for their benefit. Dr. Culbreath presented two papers, o*e I signed by Mrs. Culbreath, the other] by her brother, Dr. Prescott, and claimed that the papers gave him the j right to administer on the estate. The | paper signed by Mrs. Culbreath simply- waived her own interest in the prop-1 erty, and she said that if the paper j meant anything more than this then she was deceived as to its purport! when she signed it. The question as to who should administer was argued] at some length by Mr. J. C. Sheppard, representing Mrs. Culbceath, and Mr.] Ernest Gary, representing Dr. Cul- breatb. Judge Roatli rendered his] decree in faforof Mrs. Fannie 1*.

It Is possible that money dipped into a bounteous supply »f printer's ink, is to b« used to teach false Ideas.

B. B., as the fatter contains potash properly combine^. Opium, morphine, strychnine, aconite, whiskey, etc., are all deadly poisons, and are daily destroying the fives of people, and why do not these men cry out against them? It is because there is no money in sight to do so. Potash is nut regarded as a poison, and very seldom harms any one; out those who abuse it are using a vegeta ble poison ten times as violent Iodide of Potash, in proper combination. Is regarded by the medicaf profession as tne quickest, grandest and most powerful blood remedy tver known to man. Those who believe in revealed combinations and Indian foolish ness are surely in a condition to become rather “cranky" in their ideas at any time. We assert understandingly that Potash, as nsed in the manufacture of B. B. B., is not a poison, and the public need Bot place any confidence in assertions to the contrary.
