For the Month of September.
OATS.
' It is cotton picking time, we know,
but we will talk first on a more season
able topic than cotton. " Ve are not mad,
most noblo" farmer, "but we speak forth
the words ot truth and soberness" when
wo say that bread ia more necessary to
our existence and comfort than cotton.
We cannot eat cotton ; nor can we con
sumo in clothing the hundredth part of
the crop we produce. Think of the fix a
farmer would bo in if he should have a
hundred bales of cotton on band, and find
no market for it, while at the same time
his corn crop is short, his oat crop nix,
and every animal on his place is helplessly
and hopelessly hungry and starving!
But how is the farmer who has his barns
piled with oats, his corn field groaning
beneath the loads of golden maize, and
his fat cows and sleek porkers anxiously
waiting to be relieved of their wealth of
fatness? Now for the application: sow
small grain, and sow plenty of it. Now is
the accepted time the beginning ofseed
time. To day, if ye will hear, commence
to look around for seed, and havo ready
the plows and the harness not forgetting
the cotton seed meal or the crushed seed,
and a moderate store of acid phosphate,
and maybe kainit or muriate. The sea
son of 1890-91 was a good season for fall
oats; but the spring season of 1891 proved,
as usual, a bad one for spring oats.
The fall of the year is the time to sow
oats, and September is the beginning of
fall. What if the crop be killed by severe
freezing one year in three? A farmer
can better afford to sow oats in September
or October even if he does loBe one crop
in three by killing, than to rely on Jan
uary and February sowings, which are
scarcely loss liable to the same disaster,
and in addition, are ruined by drouth at
least two years in throe. Even when
spring oats "hit" the yield is far inferior
to a successful hit of fall oats on tho same
land. Moreover, if the fall sown crop
be winter killed it will often occur before
tho timo for spring sowing has passed, or,
at 'least, there will be ample timo in
, which to plant the land in corn, cotton,
or other crop; while tho drouth-blasted
spring sown oat may not "make an as
signment" until it in too lato for corn or
cotton.
We arc aware that wo aro writing on a
trite subject, and that wo may not be
able to advance any now arguments; but
we believe it a duty to exhort on this lino
"in season and out of season." Experi
ence is said to bo the best guide to prac
tice ; and both experience and observa
tion teach us that tbo right kind of oats,
sown in the right way and in the early
fall, yield far more in a term of years than
spring sown. Tho very fact that the oat,
under ordinary circumstances, is a per
fectly hardy plant and yet an annual
indicates the fall season as tho proper
seed time.
Left to themselves they spring up
naturally at the fall of tho leaves. In our
impoverished soils it is a matter of con
siderable importance that any plant grown
shall have a long season in which to
forage the soil for its appropriate food.
Oats sown in September or October enjoy
a period of from seven to eight months in
which to extract from an unwilling or
impoverished soil the elements necessary
to their development and maturity. Sown
in February the foraging time is reduced
to threo or four months.
The right kind of seed means any one
'Ot the several sub varieties ot the original
Bed Rust proof say the Texas or better
Still the Appier oat, a variety grown with
.signal success at the Experiment btation
the past two years. It is very probably
the result of close selection from the Bed
.Rust proof variety, and is hardy, heavier
ana a little earlier than the Texas strain
For an anticipated yield of twenty five to
fifty bushels one and a half to two bushels
per acre Aro sufficient, it the ground bo
properly prepared. There is no reason
why oats should be sown on rough grassy
land, and roughly scratched or rubbed in.
No farmer plants corn or cotton in that
way, and no good farmer will put in his
oats in such slipshod style. If the ground
be rough, that is covered with corn stalks,
bunches of grass, etc., cut down tho stalks
and remove everything that cannot be
turned under with a two-horse plow.
After plowing with a two horse plow,
then sow tho oats and fertilizer and bar
row the surface until smooth enough for
a reaper. Southern Cultivator.
A Three Mule Farm.
There is a young farmer in this county
who. runs a three mule farm, who has sold
this year thrco hundred dollars worth ot
farm produce in addition to tho cotton ho
made last year. Ho has kept an account
of the income from his products, and tho
above amount is correct.
In his neighborhood are several other
young farmers who make their side crops
pay their expenses that is all nocessa
ries, such as clothing for themselves and
families and such articles ot food as they
do not produce are purchased with money
by selling corn, hams, poultry, butter,
eggs, dried fruit, and numerous other
articles in that line.
The writer knows that these young
men are adding yearly to their property.
They are good citizens, industrious men,
and are prospering, yet they do not do
more hard work than many others who
afo not doing near so well. . They are
working on the right line.
Farming, like every other business,
pays when the expenses are less than the
income, and like every other business it
-.is a failure when you reverse these con
ditions.
There are few men, comparatively, in
any business, who earn more than a good
living, and he who can show a clear
profit of a few hundred dollars yearly is
doing finely. Most men who clear more
do It at a great risk, and of those whose
work is speculative, more fail than suc
ceed. v
If there be great dissatisfaction among
-those, who Are engaged in farm work,
much of the dissatisfaction arises from
the mistaken idea that every other busi
ness pays better. Farm and Ranch.
"A Year and a Day." In ancient
British law a year and a day was the
time (fixed within which certain things
could be lawfully done. Under this lav
it was -necessary to claim estrayed stoc k
within a year and a day, otherwise it be
came the property of the lord of the
manor. By tho same law, if a person
wounded died within a year and a day
the person inflicting the wound was held
to be guilty of murder. Globe Democrat.

Hi
Pea Vine Manuring.
In the plats of wheat on which pea
vino manuring has been illustrated at the
Experiment Farm we have a financial
statement to make which is worth looking
at. We find that fertilizers costing an
average of $3.37 per acre raised the yield
of wheat say H bushels per acre. With
wheat worth 81 per bushel it is easy to
see what we lose on fertilizers.
The cow pea vines cost work on the
land and say $1 per bushel for two bushels
per acre for first seeding. We can collect
seed after once starting in the work before
plowing in the crop, because it is best not
to sour the" land by plowing in the vines
green.. Hence sow early enough to ma
ture before ground is needed and pick off
pods enough for seed.
Perhaps a fair estimate on this will be
found in. the following:
Man and team plowing 1 day on 1 acre, 3 00
" harrowing 100
Two bushels seeds at $1, 2 00
' Total co.-t of pea vioe crop, $5 00
Increased yield of wheat on plats ten
bushels per acre, at $1 per bushel, gives
$10, or a net income of $5 per acre, where
the extra handling can be next to nothing
in cost.
Wc havo said nothing of tho increase
in fertility or value of 6traw, which is
well worth considering. F. E. Emery,

but little more than an interest in the
subject of culture maybe noted in the
Gulf States, in California considerable
areas are being planted, a bounty bill
having just passed the Legislature. Two
new decorticators will doubtless be ready
for official trial in the South during the
summer. Improvements on one of the
leading French machines are noted, with
an illustration of the machine. One of
these will suffice for fifteen acres. The
department has just received an important
official communication from Hankow,
China, with interesting facts bearing
upon the methods of preparing tho fibre
in China, and statements regarding avail
ble supply for export. This is claimed
not to exceed 10,000 tons of all kinds.
Samples of six kinds of commercial Chi
nese fibre were also forwarded.
Value of Good Water.
The importance of pure water for stock
will readily appear when we consider that
this element constitutes about 70 per
cent, of the entire animal, and not less
than 87 per cent of milk. It is plain that
if 70 per cent, of an animal's body is im
pure water, filled with germs of disease
and inorganic vileness, that neither the
flesh nor the milk can be wholesome food
for man. Just how much of our preva
lent liver and kidney disorders, dyspep
sias, malignant fevers, dysenteries, in
fectious diseases and the numerous and
fatal diseases of children are attributable
to this cause cannot be accurately known.
Analogical reasoning and the deductions
of plain common-sense, however, impress
us that many of our physical ills originate
in the filthy mud-holes from which our
stock obtain their drinking water. Texas

This growth is due to nothing else but my

look to that Department only for a great margin.
I decided to undersell and gain in favor.
For youngsters, four to ten years, I have Suits

For older chaps you will find Suits $3.90,
$4 25, $5.50 and up.
For Men, tall or low, fat or lean, Suits $4 65,
$5, $6.25, $0.75 and up.. ....... ......
All of these would bring readily 30 per cent

not leave auy Store quite so rapidly.

Turnips in the South.
There is no more profitable fall crop
grown in the South than turnips. . They
aro rich fertilizers and splendid stock
feed. They should be cultivated and
given good care to grow to perfection.
The land should be thoroughly broken
by deep ploughing. The seed should not
be sown too thick to insure good crop.
I put them in bins to cure and save for
winter feed. It won't do to feed them to
milch cows in too great quantities ; they
will make the milk tasto of turnips.

Dont Give Up
The use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. One bottle
may not cure "right off" a complaint of
years ; persist until a cure Is effected. As a
general rule, improvement follows shortly
after beginning the use of this medicine.
With many people, the effect Is immediately
noticeable; but some constitutions are less
susceptible to medicinal influences than
others, and the curative process may, there
fore, hi such cases, be less prompt. Perse
verance in using this remedy is sure of its
reward at last Sooner or later, the most
stubborn blood diseases yield to
Ayer's
Sarsaparilla
"For several years, In the spring months,
I used to be troubled with a drowsy, tired
feeling, and a dull pain In the small of my
back, so bad, at times, as to prevent my
being able to walk, the least sudden motion
causing me severe distress. Frequently,
boils and rashes would break out on various
parts of the body. By the advice of friends
and my family physician, I began the use of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla and continued It till the
poison In my blood was thoroughly eradica
ted." L. w. English, Montgomery City, Mo.
"My system was all run down; my skin
rough and of yello wish hue. I tried various
remedies, and while some of them gave me
temporary relief, none of them did any per
manent good. At last I began to take
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, continuing it exclusive
ly for a considerable time, and am pleased
to say that it completely
Cured Me.
I presume my liver was very much out of
order, and the blood impure in consequence.
I feel that I cannot too highly recommend
Ayer's Sarsaparilla to any one afflicted as I
was." Mrs. N. A. Smith, Glover, Vt
" For years I suffered from scrofula and
blood diseases. The doctors' prescriptions
and several so-called blood-purifiers being of
no avail, I was at last advised by a friend to
try Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I did so, and now
feel like a new man, being fully restored to
health." c. N. Frink, Decorah. Iowa.

The Voice
Is easily injured the slightest irritation of

is a serious matter, but at each attack, I
have been relieved by a few doses of Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral. This remedy, with ordi
nary care, has worked such a
Magical Effect
that I have suffered very little inconven
ience. I have also used it in my family, with
excellent results, In coughs, colds, &c."
Wm. H. Quartly, Minlaton, Australia.
" In the spring of 1853, at Portsmouth, Va.,
I was prostrated by a severe attack of ty
phoid pneumonia. My physicians exhausted
their remedies, and for one year I was not
able to even articulate a word. By the ad
vice of Dr. Shaw I tried Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral, and to my surprise and great joy, in
less than one month I could converse easily,
In a natural tone of voice. I continued to .
Improve and have become since a well man.
I have often recommended the Pectoral, and
have never known it to fail." Georga B.
