[CONTINUED.] Being an advocate of the early plantipg of corin, from 1847 to 1866 y adopted'the following plan annually, which was to commence the prepara tion of the land b~y the first of March or before, in the way stated In a form or article, to start by the 18th or 20th to plant, so as to get done by the- first of April, except a few acres of low lands to be pilanted about the~ first of May. I commended to plant cotton the first of April to be finished and have the corni plowed, hoed and' thinned by ' the first of May or there abouts to commence the cultivation. I have often had "roasting ears" in the field by the.4th of July, and recollect one y'ear of having all the fodder pullelt and housed by the 15th of August, except the few acres of bot toms above mentioned. The cron made annually generally averaged 'a four-horse load per acre, including low lands except by the protracted drought of 1858, and the highest fresha et I have ever seen in Little River the 7th of July, 1867, wvhen the corn was earing. Since the war I rarely get corn planted before the last of March .or first of April, and particularly the bottomns. Cotton, I haecagod to later planting, with a good result on our worn lanas, des titute of humus. Previous to 1885, I always had corn planted on the bed, since, I plant by having the water furrow dteeply plowed on bedding, cotton seed fertilizer on planting strewn in .it and have a furrow run carefully on the side witig a straight shovel to cover them up and in this furrow drop the corn and cover with .same kitid of shovel, and should any of the seed come up run a furrow to cover them on opposite side by being' careful of corn, and at the second p lowing a fertilizer can be put in lap furrow on the other ide and covered if thought ativisable to use more. I will take occasion here to say that in ple.iutiug corn lato or after the middle of Aprl If manured with cotton seed, they shold be killed just before their application to the soil. Many farmers plant ntho water furrow after bed dntcover with two and board or harrow it before' coming up if neces sary, thinking the deeper the corn is planted the longer It will stand a drought, which I have never believed, as often It Is dropped on hard unplow ed land and gets sustenance from the covering above, as the roots penetrate very little.- in the unplowed earth below and if planted on bed or side of water farrow as- above stated will extend downwards and penetrate the the plowed earth thoroughly. I have heard It said the .corn would not be blown down as much by being planted in water furrow at the time of fruitage by a wind storm, should it occur, If not, more would be broken, as the stalk below brace roots become brittle. It also necessitates an earlier plowing of the middle in cultivation to destroy the young grass and weeds coming up, which could not bb lappd on the bedsa as thoroughly as If planted In the way I have shown above, or on the bed in -miy former article. In order to substantiate more fully what I have written In regard to the prepa ration of the land bbforo planting and cultitation of crop I will' state Mr. Levi Coon, of exington county, rented fol' scvba'fl yfears some fifty aorde of good bottom land oin Broad River of Dr..Wallace, and he plowed and harrowed il oftOn. three times bofore.plantingk then.Arwro.#ed It off the propoi' *i7dth dropped seed and elv~, L5 pasCnrss hc easfe r to Q.D.
