OKRHAN KALI WORKS,

The Advantage of Peas.
The remarks recently made by
Mr. Terry in regard to the advantages
possessed bv the Southern
farmer over his Northern neigh
bor in the diversity of crops that
can be grown in a single season
are not a whit exaggerated. The
fact that clover does not as a rule
thrive well in the South has been
time and again shown by Prof.
Massev to be far less of a disadvantage
than would be supposed
by the farmers ot the North, who
would go S mth and continue the
same hn.,1 of cropping I hey have
been accustomed to at home. In
fact we have almost come to the
conclusion that it is one of the
mistakes of Southern agriculture
to evor sow a clover seed south
ol Virginia. In our progress
somnwnra jus! to the extent that
clover becomes more and more
uncertain and troublesome, the
cow pea increases in value, .until
all over the cotton belt it is the
king ol tor a {jo and s<?il improving
crops. Now and t!i u a competitor
appears only to disappear after
a little while. Over all of
thein the cow pea has advantages.
Among its numerous varieties
there can be found those suited
to almost any condition. No
clover can produce as much forage
per acre on the same quality
of land, and no clover will make
better hay if properly cured. No
clover will make even an appearance
in the space of time during
I I i i
wmcn me cow pea frets in its
whole work. No clover will
gather from the air anj more nitrogen
than the cow pea. Then
why does the Southern farmer
need clover at all? When he can
get an early crop like peas (Canada
pea9) and oats olT his land by
the first of June and can then
sow a crop of peas and gather
another heavy crop of hay in
time to prepare the land for a
crpp ot winter grain, where is the
need for clover? lie has accomplished
in two Rhort months all
that clover would do for him in
twelve months if it was a success
alitl hna rlAno it I l-? o
(IV >IMO V1VIIV 11/ *1 1111 a ucr*
tainty that never attends his efforts
to prow clover.
Ilence we are coming rapidly
to the conclusion that clover
growing or attempts to grow clover
should he abandoned in the
cotton belt, and the clover of the
South be given full sway. We
must learn that the farming of
one section cannot be the best for
all sections, and that we must
adapt our methods to the crops
that are the best ones for the sections
where we are farming. -Just
as the fruit growers going South
soon realize that they cannot
/
grow currants, gooseberries, sweet
cherries or red raspberries there,
while they can grow other things
that do not thrive in tlie North,
so the general farmer must realize
that he has left some of the
farm crops behind him and come
among others better adapted to
his new conditions. Nearly all
Northern men going South to
f'?irtti liuvo n nrnnwli^ii turtiinct
cotioil and tobacco, and resolve
that they will not grow the crops
that have ruined the South.
Herein they make a great error.
Cotton and tobacco in its many
torms are the money crops in the
South, and no farmer can afford to
ignore the money crop of his section.
The impoverishment of
Southern lands is not the fault of
these crops, for high farming can
as easily be done with cotton and
tobacco as with any other staple
crops. The fault lies in the
method and not in the crops, and
there is just as much room for
improved farming and stock raising
with tobacco and cotton as
specialties as with any other
crops.
The great need of the South ^s
specialization in farming, as distinct
from single v cropping.
Every farmer, North or South,
should have a special crop in his
rotation, to the perfection of
which the whole rotation is ar
ranged, and to which all (he oth
er crops grown are in their turn
subsidiary, though each giving
some profit in its place, aiul all
tending to the building up of the
land to the greater and more economical
production of the specialty.
For this kind of farming
the long seasons of the South
give the Southern farmer a great
pd vantage over his Northern
brother, for his recuperative crop
can come in during the same sea
son that he has taken oil a grain
crop, and prepares the land for
another, the more frequent repitition
of the renovating forage
crop enables him to shorten the
rotation, and more rapidly increase
the productiveness of his
soil for his specialty.?Practical
