CABBAGE.
This is one of the most profitable crops
t bt is grown by tbe market gardener or
trucker, and it is certainly a crop entitled to
much consideration in the home garden. It
ii vegetable much liked by all classes, and
a well grown crop of it is nearly always
salable at profitable prices. Local markets
may become overstocked sometimes, but it
is a crop easily gathered and easily shipped.
It is tbe very early crons and the very late
oars that are most profitable. The middle
crop is usually unsalable, to a great extent.
Below the 31st parallel the early crop is ob
tained by setting out the plants in Novem
ber or early December, and this planting
succeeds even as high up as Middle Georgia
at least three years out of four when prop
erly planted out early in November. This
may be called the first planting, the second
planting being made the early part of Feb
ruary from plant3 raised in cold frames in
January. Early maturing varieties, like
the M'inningstaul, Early Drumhead,
Brunswick and Early Bummer are used for
tuese plantings. Tbe late crop is put out iu
May from puints grown in April. For this
planting varieties like the largo, late Drum
head or Flat Dutch are used, and these head
from October to December. A splendid
variety for southern latitudes is a variety
catalogued by a well known .seedsman as
the “Horida Header," which heads a little
earlier than tbe Drumhead or Fiat Dutch.
There are so many different varieties or
named sorts it is puzzling to the amateur or
inexperienced grower to make a p*roper se
lection. There are over a hundred named
sorts listed in the American catalogues, but
many of these are mere synonyms. There are
quite a number of very distinct varieties,
however, and it is very important that a
proper selection is made, for on this hinges
success or failure, especially in our latitude.
When a variety is once found that proves
sat sfactory it should not be laid aside for
untried varieties, merely upon the recom
mendation of the introducer or dealer.
There are a number of reputable growers
of and dealers iu cabbage seeds from whom
one may readily secure first-class seeds—
true to name and of good quality, and these
are the ones that should be patronized on
nil occasions. It is never safe to buy seeds
from retail commission houses, os a general
rule, though there are exceptions, of course.
In buying cabbage and onion seed especially
one cannot be too particular as to the source
from which they are obtained. Some varie
t.es sown in our climate and on our ordi
nary soils prove almost absolute failures,
while others will make most satisfactory
cro; s. The early crops of cabbage can tie
grown by sowing the seed right where the
plants are to grow, but the most common
plan is to sow the seed in seed beds or cold
frames, for in this manner the plants may
to growing while the soil is being properly
manured and prepared for the crop, when
sown in frames or seed beds in drawing the
plants to set out all imperfect ones should be
rejected, and only the perfect ones put out.
Many will be found, especially when a poor
twain of seed is usod, that have imperfect
buds, or entirely lacking buds, and these are
cot likely to make good hard-head cabbage.
The plants should not be allowed to grow
too thickly in the seed beds. One had better
pay S5 or $lO per pound for a goon strain of
cabbage seed, grown from perfect heads,
than to accept as a gift seed that have been
carelessly grown from imperfect heads or
mere stalks.
The varieties named above are as good as
any for our section, aud doubtless all of
these can be had under other names. It is
true there are other sorts that will probably
give satifaction. The Improved American
.Savory is an excellent variety for setting
out in the fall for spring use, and it is an
excellent sort for winter heading.
The Short Stemmed Brunswick is one of
the most reliable varieties for heading that
we have ever planted lor early summer or
late spring use.
One need not expect to make a success
with cabbage on poor soil. The soil must
either be naturally rich or made by suitable
manures, and it should be thoroughly pre
pared with plow and roller and harrow if
the very best results would be obtained. The
principal thing is to have the soil well en
riched and the cultivation of the crop
thorough from tho start. Of course it is
equally important to have a good strain of
seed. A good crop cannot be made on the
best cultivation if a poor strain and poor
quality of seeds are used. With rows three
feet apart the early varities will make heads
on rich soil with good cultivation when set
in fifteen to twenty inches in the row. When
set this close it will require eight to ten
thousand plants per acre. But for the late
and large growing kinds not more than five
or six tnousand at the furthest should be
set in an acre. The plants should be set
three by three feet apart or throe by two
and a half.
There is no crop more beset by injurious
insects than the cabbage. What with the
many cutwcrms, the green worms and lice
and Harlequin bug the growth of the late
crop becomes a very difficult thing in some
localit.es, and it requires eternal vigilance
to protect the crop oftentimes. It is tbe
greatest obstacle to successful growing of
the late crop with us. Insects circum
vented and it is as easy a crop to grow as
any when all tho requirements are fully
met—to wit: good variety, rich soil and
thorough cultivation. 8. A. C.
BOMB! EXPERIMENTAL TESTS.
Cotton, Corn, Tomatoes, Sweet and
Irish Potatoes.
At the Mississippi Agricultural Experi
ment Station the past year extended experi
ments with cotton were made. Thirty
seven “varieties” (if that term may be used)
■were planted on the first day of May, in
rows four feet apart The following brief
summary preseuts the most interesting feat
ures of the experiments, which may be sus
tained or reversed by further tests:
The variety that gave largest yield of
seed cotton was the “King”—l,27o pounds
per acre. (The laud was of medium fer
tility, having been in cultivation many
years, but some manure had been used on
it annually for ten years past.)
The variety that gave the largest pro
portion of lint was the “Cherry Long
Btaple.” The total yield of seed cotton per
acre was only 900 pounds, but of this 420
pounds was lint, equal to 46 1 ' per cent.
This is about 15 per cent, greater the average
of upland cottou. Of the thirty-seven omv
cue other variety gave as mucu as 40 ner
cent, of lint and that was the “ Petit Gulf,' 1
which yielded 45} j per cent. Both of these
verities were grown from seed that were
three or four years old, and the director of
the experiment suggests the possibility that
this may have had some influence in pro
ducing such a large percentage of lint.
Besides these two the four other varieties
that produced the next best results were the
“Southern Hope” (1,060 pound per acre),
“Extra Early Carolina'' (930 pounds per
acre), “Truitt’s Premium” (1,048 pounds),
and “Tennessee Gold Dust” (1,020 p lands).
The “Dixon Improved,” though producing
1,320 pounds of seed cotton per acre, gave
only 352 pounds of lint, a little over 26 per
vent. The “Peterkiu” approximates 10 per
cent, of lint, bat did not prove as productive
as some other varieties. The “Okra” leaf
did not make a very good showing.
The yield of all varieties was greatly
diminished by rot. There were fifteen days
ol rainy weather during the month of Sep
tember, which caused a large per cent, of
the bolls to rot before opening. Good
, - •
weather might have changed the relative
results.
j No doubt a careful classification would
have shown a number of tuese eo-calied
varieties to be “one and the same thing "
“a mere distinction without a difference"
existing. The nomenclature of cotton is as
sadly in need cf revising aud establishment
os that of any other plant, and we hope to
?ee the day when the reckless and unwar
ranted multiplication of names will be put
an end to and the anomaly of one plant
having a score of names continue no longer
to exist—when “Wihtes Wonderful” and
I " Brow '?’ 9 Superb" and “Black’s Champion
Prolific" and "Green's Marvel" will appear
under the simple aud legitimate title,
"Early Cluster," and remove forever the
annoyance and confusion that attend on
having scores of different names for the
same thing. It must be stopped, if possi
ble, and we believe that time will show that
it is possible.
CORN TESTS.
The same station gives us the results of a
trial of fifty-eight “varieties" of corn, made
to determine their relative yield and value.
W e abstract the following as embracing
tho instructive points relating thereto:
The six varieties commended as the best
are Moaby’s “Prolific," Cocke’s “Prolific"
Minters “Prolific,” “Mammoth,” “Sur
prise," Baily and Evans. The latter two are
yellow, the rest white. Tho largest yield was
with Mosby’s, which produced C>3 l bushels
per acre. Next to this came the Cocke with
55' , and the Minter third, with fifty-four
bushels.
Tho Flint varities of corn do not give
satisfaction, being unsuited to the locality,
apparently. The experiments of lbß9 aud
l'i'A) seem to point conclusively to the fact
that the white varieties are considerably
more productive than the yellow, though
the Baily Yellow Dent and the “Improved
Beaming" yielded crops of over fifty bushels
per acre.
Speaking of the relative productiveness
of the two kinds, the experimenter goes on
to say that the results obtained, both here
and at other stations, are contradictory to
the prevailing ideas in regard to the com
parative yields of the white and colored
varieties, but they agree so closely with
each other and with the results obtained
during several years at the Missouri Agri
cultural College that we believe them to be
correot. We are not aware that attention
has ever been called to this point
before. Asa rule, the yellow varieties
make larger ears, but we have
found very few which average more than
one ear to the stalk. Of those varieties
noted as being the best six, the white
averaged 127 ears to 100 stalks, while the
yellow varieties bore only 105 ears to 100
stalks. The ears of white corn are usually
smaller than those of the yellow varieties,
but the greater number more than compen
sates for their smaller size and so makes a
heavier yield per acre. It is probably true
that the yellow varieties stand up tetter in
the field, and are less liable to rot when left
in tbe held until late in the season. What
differences exist iu the feeding values we
are unable to say, but large numbers of
chemical analyses made at the New York
experimental station and the United States
department of agriculture indicate no ap
preciable differences.
The North Carolina experiment station
made tests of some of the leading vegeta
bles the past year with the result of com
mending tbe following varieties of toma
toes: The “Peach” was found to be very
productive and valuable for farm use, but
too small and soft for a shipping tomato. It
is the sweetest of all tomatoes and stands
the hot sun better than most other varie
ties.
Tbe “Golden Queen” (or Golden Sunrise),
recommended as the best of the yellow
kinds —large, smooth and solid, fine for
slicing raw.
The “Green Gage” was found to be un
usually productive.
The “Atlantic Prize” is recommended as
the best early sort.
The ‘'Brandywine” and “Optimus” are
commended as promising 6orts, especially
for canning.
Of potatoes—The “Rural New Yorker
No. 2,” “Puritan,” “Pearl of Savoy." “Van
guard” were found to be the most promis
ing forts for early use and market. Of the
many varieties tested the “Early Rose” was
the most unproductive. The “Early Ohio”
is as any of the above, though in
this experiment not quite so productive.
Some tests were made also with sweet
potatoes, but owing to the confused state of
the nomenclature of this vegetable the
teachings of the experiment are not very
satisfactory. Some thirteen or more named
sorts were planted, but as these names, in
many cases, are only local names, it is diffi
cult to distinguish the variety referred to.
The “Hayman” was found to be the moat
productive, and the director regards this
name ns synonomous with “Southern
Queen,” Bahamas and “Yam.” The “Bar
bados” and “Norton Yam” is said to be the
most popular variety fa the Raleigh market
for home use, and the kinds known as Vir
ginia Nausemond and “Red Nose” are re
ported as the most profitable kind for ship
ment north.
Someone or the other of our southern ex
perimental stations should take hold of the
sweet potato and make a special study of it.
We need a scientific classification aud weed
ing out of all unnecessary names, and a de
velopment of new varities from the seed.
The station that will undertake this work
and develop it as it should be will do a
great service to the southern farmer.
Breeding Dp Common Poultry.
Very probably, the progressive farmer
has often thought of the subject of improv
ing the quality of hisflockßof fowls, as well
as his herds of horses and cattle, says the
Ohio Farmer. If he has never before con
sidered it, it is certainly high time that ho
soould, for has it not been proved, time and
again, that poultry pays better than any
other farm stock, when the capital invented
is taken into consideration? And surely, if
this be true, anything we can do to render
the fowls more prolific or more substantial
in carcass, will redound to our profit, as
truly as in the case of any other Bpecies of
live stock.
Poultry writers almost invariably advise
the use of thoroughbred breeding stock ex
exclusively; but, while this is a very good
way, indeed, to reap the benefits of pure
blooded stock, and perhaps the best, yet it
is not the only way. By resorting to a
practice known as “grading,” by the use of
blooded males, a common, mongrel flock of
fowls can. in a few years, be made to ex
hibit in a marked degree the good qualities
of thorougnhreds. Good blooded stock at
present commands more money than many
farmers are willing to pay, especially if they
are somewhat skeptical in regard to the
intrinsic worth of the same. Tbis is partic
ularly true of stock that is “up” in fancy
points, but most every fancier has a number
of male birds that are not “up” but rather
“off,” and these are the ones that are for sale
at prices little above the usual market value,
and are just suited to the needs of the
farmer. Of course no really mean cull
should be bred from, just because he bears
the name of a distinct breed. He must be
fully developed, physically, and show
stamina and strength of constitution. He
should have bright red comb, clear bright
eye, be sprightly and active in his beariug,
and exhibit in a fair manner the practical
qualities of the breed he represents. To
mate with a pure-blooded cock of the above
description, let the farmer select a dozen
2-year-old hens, possessing as near as may
be, uniformity of size and general make-up.
This uniformity is very desirable, that the
treatment suited to the nature of one indi
vidual of the flock may be equally adapted
to another. The trouble is, where fowls,
large and small, heavy and light, comprise a
single flock, the food calculated to keep one
bird healthy and prolific would render an
other very fat and unprofitable.
In breeding up a flock of fowls it is very
essential to use only pure males. On no ac
count must the result ot the cross be used.
One plan is to select one single breed of
pure-bred fowls, that seems to the breeder
to be most suited to bis own particular
needs, using pure males ot this variety
alone. |
THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY. ABRIL 20. 1891.
In this case, each successive generation of
the produce will exhibit more and more the
characteristics of the pure breed, and in
time the stock will become essentially thor
oughbred, and the eye of an expert judge
of poultry will scarcely detect the line of
descent. Another plan is to use a male
bird, first of one variety and then of an
other, at.d so on, the breeder selecting the
cock from the breed that he considers most
calculated to benefit his own stock. If it is
desired to make egg production of first con
sideration, it would perhaps be well to
choose a Leghorn male or, if preferred, a
Hamburg or Bpani>b, and breed to the
same repeatedly. If both eggs and meat
are highly valued and that, too, in about
equal ratio, it wiil be quite satisfactory to
breed first from a so-called egg breed, and
then a meat breed.
Thus, we may reasonably expect many of
the good qualities of each to he perpetuated
in the offspring. In conclusion, I would
earnestly urge this matter to the attention
of those who have never kept anything but
“mongrel” fowls. Blood will always surely
tell.
Making the Moat of Fertilizers.
It is not every kind of crop, says the
Boston Cultivator, that will pay for the
artificial manures known as commercial
fertilizers. Much also depends on the man
agement of land otherwise. They are gen
erally used up in the first year, or what re
mains is so locked up that it is practically
nearly worthless. But by applying such
fertilizers to grain crops, seeded with clover
in the spring, a part of the fertility goes
into the clover plant, and is thus continued
into activity a second and even a third year.
For, as has been taught by carefully con
ducted experiments, clover roots have the
power, when supplied with elements to start
growth, of using atmospheric nitrogen to
continue it. There is good reason to believe
that this disintegration of air iu the soil
liberates its carbonic acid gas, and thus helps
to render phosphates aud other mineral
plant food soluble, so that they can be taken
up by the roots of crops.
Whether this theory be correot or other
wise, there ca be no doubt of the practical
fact that seeding with clover every time
manure is applied to the land is the best
means of maintaining fertility. This is
especially true of the mineral manures,
which used alone tend to constantly reduce
tho vegetable matter in the soil, and thus
lock up its mineral fertility quicker than
would otherwise be possible. The roots of
clover when the plant attains full growth
add several tons of vegetable matter per
acre, and they decay rapidly when the
ground is plowed so that the top no longer
can grow.
Most of this root is drawn from the sub
soil and from the atmosphere, and as it de
cavs it furnishes the soil with the carbonic
acid gas that is needed to make and keep
phosphate soluble. Thus the olover and the
mineral manure mutually supplement each
other. Each gives what the other most
most lacks, and by these two combined, fer
tility may be indefinitely maintained.
If phosphate or other mineral fertilizer
be applied to land destitute alike of clover
or vegetable matter in any form it will do
little good. The failure of these fertilizers
on sandy or gravelly soil is usually thought
to be due to lack of carbon in the soil to de
compose, and thus keep the mineral in con
dition for use, In such case using the min
eral iu connection with stable manure is
much better than either one alone. Clover
should be sown at once cm such land, and a
mixture of phosphate, potash and stable
manure, even though a lighter dressing per
acre will often secure a clover catch on land
where clover has not been able to grow for
years. In every case we find that abundant
seeding with clover at every opportunity is
a necessary plan in providing judiciouß use
of fertilizers of any kind. The clover in
sures that part of the fertility applied shall,
be retained on the land, instead of being
sold off tty exhaustive cropping.
Points on Ducks.
Ducks do not need as much water as many
suppose, says Annie C. Webster in tbe
American Cultivator, and they may be
raised on farms where there is no pond or
rnnning water. A good substitute is to
build a system of wooden troughs, which
should be kept full of water at all times.
Let the ducks have free access to these
troughs, and they will never suffer from the
lack of water. Such troughs can be made
deep and wide enough for the birds to swim
about, and they will then answer the pur
pose as weil as any expensively made pond
or creek. If they are to be raised on a very
large scale, howewr, it may be more profit
able to have a pond dug, for nature will
keep this supplied with water at all times.
The best of keepers would fail to keep the
troughs full if several large flocks had ac
cess to them.
A few ducks may bo raised very well with
the hens, and no disturbance will be made
by either birds. The ducks are great horns
lovers, and if accustomed to go into their
pen at night they will always remember the
lesson. If confined the ducks will consume
more food than tbe hens, but if allowed to
forage tbgy may he raised even cheaper.
In confinement they are not so annoyiug as
hens, for they wiil not scratch nor fly over
fences, and they are very seldom attacked
by disease. Their food must be attended to
regularly, and besides animal ami green
food they should have worm* fed to them
daily. Wood charcoal must also be given
to them with their food to preserve their
health.
The best way is to let the ducks forage for
themselves in the day time, and them
to come to their own pen at night. Treat
them kindly and they will soon ao this. The
ducklings need great care and attention,
and na they grow faster than ohicks they
are ready for market in eight or ten weeks.
A quiet, motherly hen should be kept to
watch and tend them. They should be fed
often with more meat than is given to
chicks, and they need to be kept warm and
dry. A variety of food is relished by
them, and they will devour parings of vege
tables or fruit and scraps from tho tatde
with remarkable avidity. Feathers can be
plucked from them several times a year if
they are needed.
HOW HE WON HIS BRIDE.
A Newspaper Man Helps a Friend to
Get the Girl Ee Loved.
From the Chicago Post.
"For helping a fellow in distress,” said a
rich New Yorker to a reporter while dining
at the Richelieu last evening, “commend
me to a newspaper reporter. Let the
meshes in which you may find yourself be
never so tangled, he can, if he will,
and he wiil if he thinks you de
serving of his assistance, extricate
you with a dexterous ease. You know my
visit here was to secure the consent of the
parents of my sweetheart to our marriage.
They looked upon our engagement with ap
proval. hut Claire is young and a couple of
years should be added to her age, they
think, before we marrv.
"Now, to my mind,” the young man con
tinued, as he stabbed a Blue Point, trans
ferred it to his mouth and pushed bis plate
aside, “procrastination is not only the thief
of time, but of happiness as well. I tried
by letter writing to bring her parents to my
way of thinking. But I failed, and so I
came on to personally plead my cause,
but with no better result. They
were obdurate, and, though my sweet
heart and I supplicated them in
duets, it was of no avail. You mav Im
agine my despair. I was at the bottom, and
war about to give up and return heme,
when I ran against an old friend of tpine, a
member of the local staff of one of the daily
papers. He ooticed that I was down In the
mouth, and though by evasive repliee I en
deavored to hide the truth from him, he
managed by a little skillful questioning to
obtain the whole secret.
“ ‘You really must have the girlf he then
asked me.
"I replied in tbe affirmative.
“ ‘And you want to marry her now?’
“I nodded.
“ ‘Consider.’ he said, wtrningly.’ you will
bid adieu to the liberty you now enjoy when
at the altar ycu _eeure the minister’s bless
ing.’
“I told him I was perfectly willing to bid
adieu to it. He locked at me a moment and
said:
“ ‘You shall have her parents’ consent in
less than a fortnight.’
"Before I could ask him what he meant he
•lipped his arm through mine, aud as we
walked along said:
" ‘Listen, and I will to you a plan unfold
that shall gaiu for you your ladylove.’
“You may rest assured I listened.
“ ’See the young lady,’ he said, ‘and tell
her to obey your instructions strictly. Is
she blessed with a good appetite*’
*‘ I said she was.
"‘Good,’said he. 'And has she a rosv
complexion ?’
“I nodded.
“‘Good again” he exclaimed. ‘Tell her
to-morrow tint you intend to leave in the
morning for New York, and that immedi
ately you are gone you want her to coutract
a severe esse of despondency.
" ‘Tell her to refrain from eating any
thing at meal times—let her eat in her room
unbeknown to her parents, with tho aid of
her maid. Hor parents will think nothing
of it at first, hue they will s on begin to
worry, particularly as h r appetite has
been good. To their inquiries she must
reply that nothing is the matter.
“ ‘Bid her remain indoors and to take no
exercise, and the bloom in her otieeks will
disappear. Tell her to talk only when
necessary. In a week she will, in the eyes
and imaginations of her parents, betrav a
certain evidence of going into an early
grave. The doctor will, of course, be
called and he will prescribe. But that
won’t help her.
“ "To all her parents' inquiries as to the
cause of her decline she will simply shako
her head sadly and reply that nothing is tho
matter. Her chum—l suppose she has one
will be questioned. She will, having been
coached bv your sweatheart, tell the reason.
The parents will have suspected it all the
time; but this revealing of their daughter’s
heartache by her trusted chum will con
vince thorn that the only cure will be their
consent to the marriage.
" ‘They will debate a little,’ my news
paper friend concluded as t;e shook my
band at parting, ‘but only a little, and then
you will receive a telegram from them to
come.’
“That was two weeks ago.” the young
man oontlnued. “The plan seemed lo
contain n promise, and I did as he told
me.”
“And with what success!” asked his com
panion.
Tho young man flicked a crunch from the
cloth. His lips parted iu a smile.
“We shall be married this month."
MEDICAL.
CURE SCROFULA
With Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This dispaso
may well he termed “the curse of civ
ilization.” Whether hereditary or ac
quired, scrofula poisons the blood, en
feebles the constitution, causes con
sumption, catarrh, glandular swellings,
ulcers, sores, and troubles in numerable.
Fortunately, there is a remedy for this
evil. By tho persistent use of Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla, all traces of scrofula may
lie eradicated. Henry Brandt, Avoca,
Nebr., certi- 1— itios: “For
years I suf- MAjt fered from
scrofula, till V¥ III/ I began the
use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
since which the disease has entirely
disappeared. A child of mine was also
cured by the same remedy.”
“I was a sufferer, for years, from scrof
ula and blood diseases. Thadoetors’ pre
scriptions being of no avail, I was at
last advised to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
I did so, and now feel like anew man,
being fully restored to health.” —C. N.
