What Variety oi Oats Shall the Farmers j
Sow ?
Iu this section a line corn crop was I
grown in ihe year 1870; for five .years
after that season the dry weather of i
July cnt off the corn crop to less than {
half. The farmers began to despair of |
growing on old upland corn in sr.ffi- i
cicnt quantity to feed the farm stock. j
In the fall of 1881 an unprecedented!}* j
larjre crop of lied rust-proof oats were i
gown and the season was favorable for I
fall oats, so the farmers harvested an I
enormous oats crop in May, 1SS2. J
Most farmers thought they liaa at ia>t j
hit upon the plan of raising era in
crops for stock, as the yield of oats
that season per acre was in many cases
fully five times greater than corn and
the cost of growing an acre in oats
was much less than growing an acre in
corn. But since the year 1832 the oats
crop has been a complete tailure in
Monroe county, A few years since a
gentleman from Hancock county spent
a night with the writer. Alter supper
the subject of growing oats came up,
and this gentleman remarked tnat Mr. j
"W. J. Xorthen, of Hancock, had been !
heard to say that he had kept an accu- j
rate account of the different farm j
products raised or grown on his farm, j
and that he had realized more clear
money on sheep than on any other
farm product; and that next to sheep ]
he had realized more clear profit from I
growing oats.
As the season is near at hand when
farmers sow fail oats, it occurred to
the writer that the readers of the Culf
/t'nfnr wnnlr? he iVtaaspr) fn hfar from
Mr. W. J. Northen on the subject of I
oats raising. Docs Mr. Xorthcn sow
Red rast-proof oats or has ho found !
some variety less likely to be killed by
hard winters? A short time since I
received a letter from Mr. John II.
Dent, of Cherokee, Ga., and he suggested
that I should write an article
on oats for the Cultivator. Mr. Dent
3AVR in his section of Georgia the Red
rust-proof oats arc a failure as they
are too liable to be killed by cold win!,
ters. He said tor a number of years
he was enthused on the subject of Red
rust-proof oats, but he has now abandoned
them. lie thinks they are suited
for a more tropical climate where
the winters are mild and the springs
are hnmid.
Mr. Dent says: "The oats I want
is a hardy variety that stands cold and
grows tall, for 1 value straw as much

that I can cut high and have a heavy
stubble to turn under for" the benefit
of the land " This, I presume, is the
variety that most farmers are after.
Let us hear from you, Mr. Editor, on I
this question. For a number of years,,
an oatR club in Baldwin county has
been experimenting in growing "large
crops of oats, bat I do not know what
i variety is sown. Some large yields
k have been published as grown bv men
A in that section. In 1882, Mr. W. F.
|| Dewberry, who is a neighbor of mine,
||| had a field of eight acres that he
A thought made 100 bushels per acre; he
did not, however, measure them. Dr.
||lfl Moss, of Monroe, made 137 bushels
<M> that year on an acre. Some six or
eight years ago, Mr. Jim Rose, of
SgjjaK Upson county, made 13$ bushels per
Wg acre on a plat of eight acres. Three
p? years ago the writei" made sixty-four
bushels Red rust-proof oat3 on an acre |
of land that was only moderately good !
land; but in 1S77 the' writer sowed on j
the 10th day of August oats in a field j
of thin gray land he had in cotton at
the last plowing he gave his cotton.
The yield was twenty bushels per acre,
? and as the cost of the crop was siraplv i
^\vhal ic cost to cut them they did not j
cost to lay them down at the crib over j
five cents per bushei.

. again at the last plowing of cotton,1
but August and September were very
hot and dry so that the oats were badly
killed by heat. Of all the variefzes of
oats sown in this section, none have
yielded such large crops as the Red
rust-proof; but they have become too
uncertain a crop to rely on.
Does the editor know anything about
the "Tom Smith" oafs? It is said of
them that they grow tali on poor land
and yield well. If such is the fact,
and "they are rust-proof, it would be
well for the farmeas to grivc them a
trial. Ill the August number of the
Cultivator, for the year 1884, page 257,
Bill Arp says seed oats and wheat
ought to come from south of the sec-j
tion in which they are sown. Let the
farmers also hear from the editor on
this subject. Has he tried the plan of
sowing oats from more southern latitude,
and if so, what was the result?
One 01 my neighbors, Mr. A. U. Jackson,
brought some oats from Macon
county, known in that section as the
"Chapman" oats, because Mr. William
Chapman, of Dooly, first brought
them in that section. They are, however,
the same as the "Bart" oats. I
obtained one bushel of this variety of
oats and sowed them the 1st of March;
I used acid- phosphate on them at the
rate of 200 pounds per acre. The oats
grew tall but the grain was very light.
I shall nnf sntv them so-ain. Men
differ in regard to the time to sow Red
rust-proof oats. Capt. McMullin, of
Monroe, who was a very successful
oats grower, said from the 20th of
September to the 10 of October was
the proper time to seed that variety of
oats. Mr. Thomas Marshall, of Monroe,
who is also a successful oats
grower, prefers to begin sowing the
10th of December and sow until
Caristmas. My observation is that
early sown oats arc heavier than late
sown. If cotton seed would admit of
sowing on land the last week in September
without coming up, [ would
alwAvs sow at that tims: but to ns<?
cotton seed on oats, a farmer has to
wait until the last of November, which
is entirely too late to sow that variety
of oats." In Coweta county, some
eight or ten years ago, the farmers
sowed oats in their corn and cotton
fields at the last working, and the
yield on some occasions wa.? enormous
About the same time some
very large yieias were reported irorn
South Caroiiua by sowing in cotton
and corn lands at the last working.
F. C. Turner.
Forsyth, Ga.
In reply to the above we have to say,
that the Red Rust-proof oats have given
ns more uniform satisfaction than any
other kind. Four vears ago we tried
the ""Probstier" and thought from the
first crop that it wonld make a fine
crop for this section. It made fine
straw and-an abundant tield of beautiful
seed. The next year we planted
more largely, and lost the entire crop
from rust. SVe next tried a small
sample of the "Unknown" oats at a 1
cost of six dollars per bushel and found '
them worthless, and we have the same
report to mase 01 an tne varieties <
brought Irom the Northern markets at 1
high cost and 110 profit. We know
nothing1, personally, of the "Tom
Smith" oat, bnt we doubt its making a 1
good yield 011 poor iand. Not nnny
crops do well on poor laud. Next to
the Red Rust-proof oats we have valued
the Burt oats, but several years
since discarded all other kinds for the
rust-proof, as it is generally known. If <
sown during September and the early i
part of October they will not be killed :
by the cold of the severest winters in i
middle Georgia: and we have uniform- j .

?
Land upon which the oats are to be
sown should be broken with a iwohorse
plow just as early as the soil can
be turned and the vegetable matter
well covered up. About the 10th of
September, after the manure has been
distributed over the surface, we sow
the cats at an average of two bushels
to tfee acre, and harrow them in nicely
and well. Stable manure and cotton
seed are here found a most excellent
fertilizer, and we do not know that wc
can commend anything better. The
cotton seed arc crushed before being
applied, to prevent germination.
Treated in this way any ordinary farm
should average thirty-five bushels of

per cent. 011 the cost, if the crop
sell at forty cents per bnsbel.
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 pulverized.
It may be that we can take
a Disc harrow and go over much more
ground and leave it in fair shape as to
appearances, but we doubt if the success
can be made equal to the yield of a
deeply prepared and tfcorougnjy pulverized
soil. We have tried purchasing
seed sooth of us with no appreciable
benefit.
The great trouble with the oats crop
has been lack of preparation and fertilization,
and seeding at the wrong
season. Cotton occupies the attention
of farmers in September aud October,
and they are unwilling to employ additional
labor to put in this valuable
crop. The teams stand idle in the sta
bles, or worse, they are put into tne
field to glean tne last vestige of vegetable
matter from the soil, and the golden
opportunity for an abundant harvest
is lost, to secure a crop that frequently
costs us more money than we receive
for it. When wc get ready, in midwinter,
to put in the crop, "the oats are
badly scratched into the wet ground
and left to freeze out and die without
roots or fertilizer to stimulate them in
the struggle for life.
Every farm that is large enough to
have a gin should have a cotton seed
crusher, and .is fast as the cotton is
ginned the seed can be utilized for oats.
If the area is reduced, the land properly
prepared and fertilized, and the Red
Rust-proof oais sown the latter part of
September, in Middle Georgia, an
abundant crop, in our opinion, will be
assured. The largest yield cf oats we
erer made was from an acre sown on
the 7th of November. Everything that
winter was favorable for a good crop.
We have not been able to repeat that
experiment since.
In our opinion our farmers make a
great mistake in relying upon corn for
l^their teams. We are glad to have this
vquesuuu sujjgefcieu jusi au wiis time uy
bur correspondent, as it is one of vast
import and should be considered by
our readers. If we can supply our
teams with other grain grown in the
winter and without cultivation, we
then have the more time 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 will be
settled.?Southern Cultivator,
Encouraging Tobacco Culture
At the recent meeting of the State
Board of Agriculture, the following
resolutions introduced by Mr. Perry
were adopted:
Whereas, in the opinion of this
Board a diversity in the products of

order to advance the material resour^"
of the State; and, whereas, great n terest
is being manifested in every
part of the State as to the practicability
of introducing tobacco culture;
therefore,
Resolved, That $1,S00 be appropriated
for the purpose of making a praccal
test in the culture of tobacco, fifty
dollars to be given to one farmer in
each county and a premium of $100 to
the farmer reporting the best result,
the farmer to whom the appropriation
is to be given to be selected by a com
mittec of three practical farmers in
each county, appointed by the Commissioner
of Agriculture.
Resolved, That it shall be the duty
of the Chemist of the Department of
Agriculture to examine such soil as
may be submitted to him by the farmer's

from said experiments shall be retained
by the farmers engaged in conducting
the same, provided "they report to the j
commissioner 01 .agriculture ior puolication
all valuable information incident
to the progress and result of the
experiments, and provided each farmer
so engaged furnish the Commissioner
of Agriculture with samples of the

A Lawsuit Over Calbreath'a Estate:
(_bromthe Edgefield Chronicle.)
Last Friday an interesting case was
argued before Judge Roath, in the
Probate Court in this village, the facts
being as; follows: Dr. W. A. Culbreath
had made application for letters of
administration on the estate of his
brother, O. T. Culbreath, claiming
that Mrs. Pannie Culbreath, the widow
of O. T. Culbreath. had waived her
right to administer. Mrs. Culbreath
denied that she had waived her right
or consented for Dr. Culbreath to administer.
She claimed that the property
belonged to her children, and she
regarded it as her duty to administer
on the estate for their beuefit. Dr.
^niDreauj presented two papers, one
signed by Mrs. Cnlbreath, the other
by her brother, Dr. Prescott, and
claimed that the papers gave him the
right to administer on the estate. The
paper signed by Mrs. Cnlbreath simply
waived her own interest in the property,
and she said that if the paper
meant anything more than this then
she was deceived zs to its purport

JIK. BAYARO'S RUDENESS.
How the Secretary of State has Displeased
His Senatorial Friends.
(Special to the New York World.)
Washington, October 26.?A friend
cf Senator Butler, of South Carolina,
said to-day: "It is true, as the World
has stated, that Senator Butler has
stopped going to the Stale Department
and it is aiso true that his colleague
does not intend to go there any more.
The exact reasons have not been stated

with the Secretary of State because be
did not promote his son to the Consulate
of Marseilles. It would have been
natural for Mr. Bayard to have paid
Mr. Butler the courtesy ot promoting
his son, but the fact that he did not,
TTT/->?ilrl Mrtt Viqttq h<a*>r> a fftHCP fhr tfrifiV
ance on the part of Mr. Butler. The
reason why Mr. Butler has stopped
going to the State Department is because
Mr. Bayard treated him with
great rudeness.
''One day he called 011 him to present
the claims of a gentleman for the
Venezuelan mission. As he entered
Mr. Bayard's room he said:
" 'Are you going to give my man the
mission that I wrote you about?'
" 'No, no, 110,' said Mr. Bayard, almost
without turning his head. He
then began an attack upon Senator
Butler on account of the Morgan appointment.
Mr. Butler repudiated all
responsibility for that appointment.
He said that he had carried this responsibility
before the public, and had said
nothing, but that no one knew better
than Mr. Bayard that he was in no way
responsible for Morgan. He had not
even asked to have him appointed
Mr. Bayard's manner was so ofiensive
and his charge so unjust that the South
Carolina Senator became very angry.
He drew himself up very stiffly and
started to go. Mr. Bayard, to conciliate
him, then began to ask him about
the case of the man he had presented
for the Venezuelan mission, but Mr.
Butler brusquely declined to say
another word on'the subject, and left.
"Two days after this interview Senator
Butler's candidate was appointed.
Butler has not ffone to the State De
partment since then, and will not so
Ions: as Mr. Bayard is there. The
South Carolina Senator, if lie were
asked about this matter to-day, would
disclaim having ony grievance against
the Secretary. He simply came to the
conclusion that he would not have
anything to do with him. Senator
Wade Hampton dropped Mr. Bayard's
acquaintance for another reason. He
made a request ?f the Secretary to
transfer a consular friend of his to
another point. If this request had
been refused Mr. Hampton would not

nave compiamea, uui inc oeureuiry
treated him with great rudeness, and
made no answer to his request."
The stories that some of the Senators
tell of their treatment at the
hands of the Secretary almost surpass
belief. The gratuitous rudeness
shown by Mr. Bayard to his old
colleagues is hard to understand. Senator
McPherson, of New Jersey, called
UDon him the other day, and the first
thing Mr. Bayard said to him, before
the Senator "had opened his mouth,
was: "Be brief, sir: my time is valuable,"
as if the Senator were a desperate
office-seeker, who was making
an unwarrantable trespass upon his
atteution. Got. Manning, one of the
leading men of South Carolina, a man
of high social position, early in tho
history of the Administration wrote
letters" to the President and the Secretary
of State, indicating a desire to go
abroad. The President wrote him a
very polite note, saying that the matter
" had been referred to the State
Department. Mr. Bayard never answered
the Governor's letter, although
he had been a guest in his house in
South Carolina, and was under numberless
obligations cf courtesy to him.
There is not a Democratic Senator
here who has not had an experience of
a disagreeable character with the Secretary
of State. Mr. Bayard is supposed
to be planning a brilliant foreign policy,
and has advanced views upon the
subject of the Nicaraguan Canal.
Whatever he may propose, he may be
certain that it will be killed in the
Senate, as he has lost his hold on all
his friends there. He has, by his
course this summer, utterly destroyed
all possibility of his having any support
from Congress on any foreign
policy that he may have on hand. He

An Important Decision.
The case of Horace L. Calvo vs. The
C. C. & A. R. R. Co., in which a decision
was filed to-dav by the Supreme
Court, decides a very important principle
of law in this State. It was heretofore
held that railroad corporations
are not liable for the injury of a ser
vant Dy tne negligence of a fellow J
servant. Under this doctrine our j
courts have uniformly held that no \
action existed when a servant was so |j
injured. The decision modifies this i
doctrine and holds that "when any of c
the duties of the master are delegated I
to a subordinate, however inferior, jj
the negligence of such agent is the j
negligence of the company, and that
they must respond in damages." In the ]

His Lordship considers that no mau

man who leads a rebellion, lticl in

and," says his Lordship, "he has done
more mischief than a score of burglars

A QUESTION ABOUT

Physicians recognize Iron as the beet restorative
agent known to the profession, and inquiry of any
leading chemical firm will substantiate tne assertion
that there are more preparations of iron than of any
other substance used in medicine This shows condusivoly
that iron is acknowledged to be the most
important factor in successful medical practice. It is,
however, a remarkable fact, that prior to the discovery
of BROWN'S IRON BITTERS no perfectly

THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR
How the Unsuspecting arc Often
Gulled.
CAPITAL VERSUS MERIT.
It is possible that money dipped into a j
bounteous supply ?f pointer's ink, is to be !
used to teach false ideas.
Why is it that such persistent anathemas
clinnlrj <i!l <it nnr>o 1?p hnrlfd ayainst the Use
of "Potash ami Potash Mixtures?"
Those who insist that Potash is a poison
do so because that is tie way they have of
fighting: B. B. B., as the latter contains
potash properly combined.
Opium, morphine, strychnine, aconite,
whiskey, etc., are all deadly poisons, and
are daily destroying the lives 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 not regarded as a
I poison, anu VC1Y 3C1UUIU nanus aujf uw,i
but those who abuse it are using a vegetable
poison ten times as violent. Iodide of
Potash, in proper combination, is regarded
by the medical profession as the quickest,
grandest and most powerful blood remedy
ever known to man. Those who believe in
revealed combinations und Indian foolishness
are surely in a condition to become
rather "cranky" in their ideas at any time.
We assert uucferstandingly that Potash, as
used in the manufacture of B. B. B., is not
a poison, and the public need not place any
confidence in assertions to the contrary.
Why is it that in one thousand letters
which we receive we never hear a word
against its use? The truth is; B. B. B. is
working such wonders in the cure of all
blood poisons, scrofula, rheumatism, catarrh.
etc.. that others are trembling in
their boots, and cry aloud, "poison,"
"fraud," because they fear its triumphant
march. Let any man or woman ask any
respectable doctor or druggist if wc are
not right. Do not be deceived, but go
right along and call for B. B. B., and be
cured. It is making five times more cures
in Atlanta tuan all other blood remedies
combined. We don't say that others are
poisons or frauds; we are not that easily
alarmed, but we say ours is the best, and
we have the proof. Send for our 32-page
book, free, and be convinced.
