The American Agriculturist '
says : "In grain-growing coun
tries such leading points as
early or late sowing are far
from being settled. While the
majority of the best farmers
agree iu eowiug their grain
early, there are others who
find, or think they find, enough
benefit from sowing as late as
their fathers did in a year when
the weather was favorable, and
are very hmd in their assertions
of 'l told you so." However
farmers may ditfer a to the
time oiVo.ving their grain.there
i are some points on which all
j will agreethe superiority of
j drilling iu the seed over sow
ing broadcast, and the iinpor
t anee of thoroughly preparing
ThsoW. Int'-t -section, Wes
tern New York, broadest Row
ing is almost obsolete. Ninety-nine
hundredths of all the
wheat sown is drilled in
ttiiiiitity of ;iM-fl -own per acre,
inm tour to -d. pecks five
pecks being tin rule. Our grain
drills have fertilizer attachment-,
and a very large propor
tion of our farmers drill iu
with the wheat two hundred
pounds of superphosphate per
aero. Thfre is much dilfereiicu
of opinion in regard to whether
it is better to a. phosphate
containing iM'ta h aud nitroyeii
as weil as i-oluble phosphoric
acid, or meiviy a phosphate
containing nothing but -soluble
phosphoric acid. The latter is
preferred becau -e, iu the first
plain it is cheaper, and because,
in the second puice, many ot
the farmers say it does just as
much good as the higher priced
article. Then opponents say
the former is the leading mo
tive, and they predict that a
phosphate without potash will
soon cease to ha ve any effect.
There is some truth in this, but
as long as the laud producer
good crops of clover there is no
lack of potash. The deficiency
of pota-ui will first manifest
itself in the failure of the
el over.

A writer in a recent number
of the Progressive b aimer
peaks very disparagingly of
the outlook for successful to
bacco growing in his section,
which he says is in what . is
known as the "Pright tobacco
belt." He says where one
makes a succes- in making a
fancy cure, scores upon scores
fail. The Nashville Argonaut
says this will not hold
good in Nash county. Re
canse of the peculiar adapta
tion of the soil of Nash, any
one can grow line tobcccc. In
fact none but experienced men
are growing tobacco iu the
county, aud a warehouseman
from Oxford has travelled over
the entire county this season
and says he found ojjly one
inferior crop of tobacco. ihts
is remarkable. The Augonaut
frthsr says ; "bometime since
we made a careful investigation

A Texas correspondent of the
American Agriculturist says :
"The real value ol onr cotton
seed crop is not yet fully ap-
prtcieted by the Southern
farmer. It is one d the best
and most convenient winter
foods for cattle, and is usually
fed without, any preparation,
hulls and all. .small seed-
hullers tor tar in use are uow
manufactured, and every South
ern farm should be supplied
With one. The hulls have lit
tie or no nutritive value for
stock, but the allies from them
or even the rotted hulls are ex
ceilent as fertilizers. They are
too bulky aud indigestible for
tl-e bovine -stomach, yet, native
Sotith m cattle devour the en
tire seed with great relish
1 his does not prove that it is
the best to be ted whole, how
ever. The raw kernels, with
the hull removed, are much
more ea-ilv masticated. If
dampened and mixed with
bran or emu meal, a most en
ticing and nutritious ration for
milch cows would be had. The
kernel ol ttie cotton seed is so
soft that I do not think it
would be profitable -iabor to
cook it. When fed unhulled,
however, boiling the seed
softens the hull, and makes
them more easily eaten by
thoroughly wet-ing and"laying"
the lint that adheres to them.
A little ; a:t -should he added
when boiled. Cattle that have
been accustomed to eating raw
seed will not rea'dily eat the
cooked unless mixed with meal
or bran, or with a little shelled
corn oi other grain. Thus
prepared, cotton seed is good
for hog feed, .especially for
3o7s suckling pig.. Iry seed

of the results of ti.bacco grow

We prof ure l the actual sales
of the principal crops,, and the
result was the conclusion that
the average yield per "acre for
the entire county was i?liki.
Every oue knows that any
farmer who cau produce a crop
which will bring him an aver

iu the hull should never be
fed to .swine, as the lint seems
to accumulate in the stomach
gradually until it finally k'lls
them. Sometimes when cotton
seed is fed abme to milch cow?,
it imparts a somewhat unpleas
ant taste to the milk. Salt
tends to prevent this, but if the
ration is changed occasionally
to carrots, turuipH or eweet
potatoes twice a week or bet
ter still, mix a few cut-up
turnips or sweet potatoes with
every feed of seed, no such
trouble will occur.
The high inaiiurial value of
cotton seed has long been
known, aud no farmer should
sell his -ted to the oil mills
except in exchange for cotton
i-tied meal, whi.Ti is nearly as
valuable for .aittle fe.td and
manure as the entire seed. To
sell oil the crop f cotton seed
at ten cent per bushel, and buy
nothing to feed the soil iu its
place, is a suicidal policy that
is running many a slmrt sight
