THE COW PEA. ~
An mi Acront In Snccvimfnl nnd ProBrcMSlve
Southern Kami inn.
In discussing farming In North Caro
Una ami urging tin? benefits of growing
the soutlirrn tioM or cow pea Professor
Massey has said: It is not in its direct
action on the soil that the value of the
cow pea comes In to a great extent.
Some persons will ask, "If the growth
of the pea is such a benefit to the soil,
why not get it at once by plowing under
the whole crop?" Much has been
written, in the north especially, In regard
to what they call "grceu manuring."
and many there advocate the
growing of crops of clover or peas for
the sole purpose of turning them under
for manure.
This Is a very shortsighted policy
anywhere and particularly in the
south. The Illnwlllir nml r>f ..f ? tiioccs
of green vegetation In a warm climate,
ami especially 011 a saudy soil, is apt
to result in tlie evolution of organic
acids to such an extent as at times to
render tlie land so treated for a time
wholly unproductive. Green manuring
is wrong for another reason. If
we turn under at midsummer the green
growth, we cut short the nitrogen
gathering the plants would do for us,
for the greater part of this is doue In
:ae letter part of the plant's growth,
ml by turning It under green we lose
a large part of the work that It would
have done later on and at the same
time run the risk of Injuring rather
than benefiting tlie soil. But the most
important point is that we thus bury
a crop worth usually at least $20 per
acre its food for stock. Now, it must
be a remarkably profitable crop that
succeeds such an expenditure of tood
to make this pay.
All experiments here and elsewhere
have shown that the best way is to
cure the pens as hay and to feed them
to stock and save all the manure carefully
to be returned to the soil. And it
lias also been proved that fully 75 per ,
cent of the manurial value can be thus I
saved and that the feeding value can
lie fully realized in addition and a
profit made from tlie animals fed.
The slavish dependence of the southern
farmer on the fertilizer manufac[
tr.rcr lias been lnrarolv hrmciit nhmo
l>.v the failure to make tbe feeding of
stock an impoitant part of our work.
Stock feeding and the saving of manure
lie at the very foundation of all successful
agriculture, and the man who
supposes that in the long run he can
do with commercial fertilizers alone
will lind that he does it at the expense
of the permanent fertility of the soil.
The pea, aided by the application of
mineral fertilizers, will give us a good
deal of the organic matter that we
need, hut the organic matter and plant
food in the,form of barnyard and stable
manure have never yet been fully
imitated in chemical matters alone.
Where there is no profit in the feeding
of stock it Is true that we can bury
| the peas in the soil or feed them off on
the ground to hogs and make the soil
Increasingly fertile, but there are few
localities, in the south where the feeding
of beef or dairy animals cannot be
made a profitable part of the farm
work.
Corn Urowlnpr In tlie Soatli.
The south lias special advantages for
the raising of corn in the long season
during which it may he grown and In

prices. Planting may be done as .
early as February in the gulf states, or

localities the entire crop finds a ready

The n<*n Dr.vis Apple.
"The I ten Davis apple in many ways
has given pleasure to thousands and
brought dollars to hundreds, but no
one knows who Den Davis was or
where he lived or died. All that is
known of its history is that it came |
into favor with orchard planters in the
southwest, and the name traveled
with the tree. In the markets of Philadelphia
there are probably more of
this variety offered for sale during December
and January than any other.
Its ruddy cheeks on a pale yellow
ground are tempting, and Its eating

The Miner Took Leu* Than lie First

"These fabulous stories you hear."
sahl a Colorado num. "of tho wonderful
discoveries made and prices received
for claims ia the milling regions
bring back to my mind it story that
used to be told in the earlier days of
Colorado.
"A young chap had there located a
claim in which lie had every coufldeuce
that ore existed, but try as lie would
he was unable to locate the precious
metal, and little l<y Id He ho became
sicker and sicker at heart until at
length there came a day whose closing
was marked by clean discouragement
on liis part. Mis last piece of bacon
was eaten, his last stick of gunpowder
tired and his credit utterly used up.
Still he believed the ore to* lie there,
but he recognized the utter ftyility ou
his part of trying further to get at it.
Lonely and out of spirits, just at sunset
lie stood at the door of his cabin
looking for the last time over the
scene of his useless efforts, when down
the winding trail came a stranger

"Hope sprang up and gleamed from
the miuer's eyes as lie lirmly replied:
'IMayed out nothing. It'll take $1,000,000
cold to buy me out.'
"The stronger slowly gathered up the
reins. Til give you $S,' he said tentatively.
" 'All In cash?' queried the late prospective
millionaire eagerly.
"'Yep.' was the response.
