Sowing Whoat In Cotton Land.
We are always pleased to receive
just such letters as the following,
and can commend its perusal to our
readers, becauso it comes from a
man of experience and great practi
cal agricultural knowledge. Maj. R.
A. Griffin, of Ninety-six, writes us as
follows :
"Your correspondent 'E.' asks,
how an(d when to sow wlheat in cot
ton land ? You secm to think your
experienco too limited to assuro a
truthful reply. I venturo to givo
my miodus operandi, which has
heretofore beon successful. Early in
October, 1868, I made my first ex.
poriment with this kind of work.
All hands were put to work picking
cotton, and closo behind them I fol
lowed with turning plouglis, the
bar side to the cotton stalks ; the
wheat was then sowed broadcast,
and at the same timo a good nianur
ing of cotton seed was thrown broad
cast from a wagon driven longthwise
with the rows ; a one-horso culti
vator was the run 0one time in each
row. Fromi nino bushels of wheat
thus sown on ton acros I reaped one
hundred an( ninety bushels. Since
that time I have sowi sevoral fields
in thc, samio ialillor with satisfactory
results. If the cotton rows are four
f.et -,yide, I run a third furrow
throuh the middle. Tho wheat
and fortilizers will be massed in the
oprn furrows, but you ned fear no
injurious offects upon tho wheat,
which should not be sown very
thickly.
"Last year I planted four acres in
turnips in thirty inch drills, and
failed entirely to got a stand. About
the 20th October I ran a double
footed-plough along the beds as in
covering cotton ; this with a furrow
in the alley loft three open furrows.
I sowed the patch with five bushols
of a largo variety of amber wheat,
and covored by running a two-horso
harrow lengthwise with the rows.
The wheat camne up in three wvoll de
fined drills and yielded one hundred
bushels.
"I agree with you in saying we
sow wheat too late. I have always
succeeded best even with the red
spring variety, when sown betwveen
the middle and tIhe last of October.
When we postpone sowing to Novem
ber or December the land is apt to
be wvet, and wvill consequently be left
in bad order after ploughing, and
the wheat is covered too deeply,
-which results in bad stands. I be
lievo thlat fair land planted in co Lon,
with an application of 150 pounds
of fertilizers, if sown in wheat as
above without additional manure,
wvill make more than if postponed
until thle last of November or first
of December, and then receive an
additional app)lication of 100 pounds
of fertilizer.
"I intend to commence sowing
wheat about the 10th of October.
In February after, I will run a two
horse harrowi over the land to level
the cotton beds so the crop can be
out with a reaper. The hlarrow teals
off the limbs from the cotton stalks,
leaving tile stem8 to be knocked
down by hand.
"I am greatly discouraged by
this year's farming operations. My
oat crop failed. To sup)ply the
deficiency I planted one hundred
acres of bottom land in corn. This
crop has had but one season since
*thle 10thl of June. Consequently
the corn is cut oft' badly, and my
cotton is a clear miss. On my home
plae the cotton crop is a little bot
tor, though wheat is the only crop)
that has yielded entisfactorily this
ye\r At tile prpr time I p)lanted
seven.pounds of ruta bagas, and1( no
rain since, (now September 41,) hence
another failure.' Tile dogs and
rogues occasionally continue to
depredate 01n my sheep, thlough
occasionally I sell a few. The result
of the vote on the fence law surpris-.
os me. We carried the no-fen~co
idea in this township, and I guess
we can 'hold the fort.' Land
owners alone should feel interested
in this law, and-I have never heard
a sensible argument against it fromn
aniy one. Trhe nogroes woro led to
the polls like sheep to the .Blangh
ter, 4and voted invilably ang'aha
$, )0 no-fence law."-Netos and CJou
.LEoANT HAIR is WoMan's crown
ing beauty. When it fades, sihe
fades as well. Whilo it -is kept
bright, her personal attractions are
still maintained. By preserving the
hair fresh and vigorous a youthful
appearance is continued through
many years. Thoso who grieve ovor
their fading hair turning gray too
early, should know that Ayor's Hair
Vigor prevents it, and restores gray
or faded hair to its natural color.
It is a clear and healthful prepara
tion, containing neither oil, dye, nor
anything deleterious, and imparts
to the scalp what is most needed-a
senso of pleasant and delightful free
d.n from scurf or dandruff.--New

ner Pill, for pur=6 thq Bleod,
Are the most
effective and
congenial pur
gative ever dis
covered. They
are mild, but
effectual in
their opera
tion, moving
the bowels
surely and
without pain.
Although gen
tle in.heir op
eration, they
are still the most thorough and search
iug cathartic medicine that can be
employed: cleansing the stomach and
bowels, and even the blood. In small
doses of one pill a day, they stimulate
the digestive organs and promote vig
orous health.
AyR's PILLS have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and
have obtained a worl-wide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
eased action in the several assimila
tive organs of the body, ani are so
composed that obstructions within
their range can rarely withstand or
evade them. Not only do they cure
the every-day complaints of every
body, but also formidable and danger
ous diseases that have ballied the best
of human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time, the safest and best physic for
children. By their aperient action
they gripe much less than the common
purgatives, and nevcr give pain when
the bowels are not inflamed. They
reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing
It from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions
In all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any deleterious drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Their sugar-coating pre
serves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take; while being
purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
