Why Pull Your Cora Fodder? Curing Cm. Pea Vines Value of Corn and Cob Meal Cultivation of Onion ; Read Oucstions and Replies. August 1894. - The Experiment Station Bulletins. The standing-, offer is made to send the bulletins of the station to all in the state who really desire to receive them. Thousands of farmers have already ta ken advantage of this offer. Unless you really want to be benefited by them, please do not apply for them, if you desire, to read them, write on postal card to Dr. II. 1J. Battle, Director , Ra leight, N. C. Curing Cow Pea Vines. . j For hay, cow pea vines, should al- ways be cut ueiore the pods ; are itui grown, for in the mjajority of cases the weevil insect lays her eggs in the grow ing pod in the field.. A fairly satisfactory way to cure pea vines is to cut in tne aiternoon wnen there is a promise of fair weather, and let the pea vines lie and wilt until next day after the dew is olf. 1 he leaves will then be somewhat tough and the vinecan be put up in moderate stacks without losing much foliage. The stacks should be as small as convenient to make, and from seven to nine feet high. These may stand until the vines are thoroughly cured, when they should be brought together and housed early in the morning or on a cloudy day, without rain, when the hay is tough enough to bear moving without loss of leaves. Extract from N. C. Experi ment Station,' Bulletin No. 98. Why Pull Your Corn Fodder T The above is the title of a bulletin (No. 104) just issued by the N. C. Agri cultural Experiment Station. It treats of a very important subject and shows that there is great loss in the present method of pulling fodder and leaving the stalks to rot in the field. Nearly one-half of the total value of the corn plant is lot by pulling fodder according to the present plan. The simplest . way to get the mos fool out of the. corn crop is to cut close to the ground with short-handled hoes t bout the time the f odder would be polled, and cure in a silo. Lacking the alio, cut the corn in the same way a few days later, or about the time fodder is generally pulled, and shock in the field. Put 400 to 000 pounds in a shock, and stand the butts out open enough to make the shock stand firm and let in the air to dry the corn. Bind the tops tight to Iiol'd together and keep out rain, ' - When cured, - shock ' out the ears, and cut what is left, known as stover the stalks,- blades and shucks). Cut in one-half inch lengths with ordina ry hand feed ' cutter, or better power if you have it. Feed to cows or work teams with cotton seed meal, wheat bran, or such other nitrogenous ma terials as can be ; most readily ob tained. For nearly balanced ration, feed one pound of meal to four of stover ajid two of oat straw. The stover alone, fed freely, will support an animal at rest and not giving milk. Cabbage and Ita Diseases. Every year as soon as hot weather begins or from May' 15, to June 1, the Experiment Station is in receipt of nu merous samples of diseased cabbage plants with requests for remedies for ' the trouble. . ' The most prevalent diseases of cab bage in this state are the white mildew caused by the parasitic fungus Pero nospora parasitica, stem rot, caused by the fungus cystopus candidus and Club foot or liig root caused by the fungus Plosmodophora brassica. The first is the most common and destructive. As to remedies the most economical and satisfactory one for the lower and middle districts is to refrain from planting summer cabbage. The cab bage plant is a native of a colder clime than ours and cannot stand the heat of pur summers. The early varieties of cabbage such as Jersey, Wsikefield, Express, etc., may be transplanted to Vile UC1U UUiiux xiuicmi;ci, l'clciiiuci and January and will remain free from disease and give a good crop before hot weather begins. Late cabbage of the Flat Dutch type or Savoys may be set out as soon after September 15 as the rains begin, and will in most cases re main healthy and form heads before Christmas. Other than these cabbage growing in this climate cannot be made profitable. There is little success in treating cab bage with fungicides. The leaves are bo smooth and covered with a wax-like "bloom" the fungicides will not adhere. Those " who wish to make the trial should use the copper sucrate mixture for whicba formula is given in Bulle tins 84 afid 92 of this station. Gerald McCarthy, N. C. Experiment Station. Advanced Monthly Summary of Meteoro logical Reports in North Crolina, for July, 1894. The North Carolina State Weather Service issues the following advanced summary of the weather in North Car olina, for July, 1894, as compared with the corresponding month ol previous years : , Temperature, The mean tempera ture for the month was 76.2 degrees, which is 1.6 degrees below the "normal. The highest monthly mean was was 79.6 at Washington; lowest, 1 65.0 at Highlands. The highfest temperature was 99 on the 13th at Saxon ; the lowest, 42 on the 11th at Blowing Rock. The warmest July during the past twenty one years was in 1887, mean 80.3 de grees ; the coldest was in 1891, mean 74.2. Precipitation. Average for the month 6.07 inches, which is 0.63 inch above the normal. The greatest amount was 11.61, at Washington ; least amount, 1.1S at Saxon. The wettest July in twenty-one years was ttiat of fS89, average, 7.73 inches; the driest, in 1S83, average. 3-12. Wind. -Prevailing; direction, south west, which is the normal direction for July.

Value of Corn and Coba GroonJ Together for Stock Food. The N. C. Agricultural Experiment Station has issued another bulletin (No. 97) on the digestibility o cattle fooda. the di tile' experiments will be 6f much value to feeders. ! '' " " Common dent corn meal was digested and also corn and cob meal from the. same lot of corn. The latter was found to have ' been digested better than was expected. The following is taken from the discussion in the bulletin : "Shell ing a 100 pound sample of ear corn gave a yield of 81.5 pounds of kernels and 18.5 pounds of cobs. By feeding the cobs as corn and cob meal, 7.11 pounds Of digestible dry mat ter was added to the -61.84 pounds di gestible from the kernels. This is equivalent to saving 10.31 per cent of the , digestible food in 100 pounds of ear " corn. Or, calculated on shelled cornf. it adds 9,84 pounds of digestible food, in the cobs to the 75.88 pounds in 100 . pounds of corn meal. This is an addition of 12.96 per cent to the digest ible dry matter in the corn meal." Who would not try to save 10 per cent of the . corn crop as it is cured in the earvor add one eighth to the value of the shelled corn meal ? This is wha-t these figures mean to make the corn crop go 13 per cent further than if shell ed and fed as meal, and throwing away the cobs. The Maine Experiment Station has also shown that nearly 5 pounds more, of, the corn in a bushel is saved by feed-1 in'g meal than by feeding whole corn. That is about one eleventh or about enough to pay for grinding. It should cost no more to grind cobs with corn than for corn alone, and even less than to shell and grind. Then the gain from pobs would be net and the percentage shown by this digestion experiment would prove a handsome profit for the trouble. F. E. Emery, Agriculturist, N. C. Experiment Station. ":. ; Feeding: of Colts. From Mr. J. F. Scott, of the Alamance Farm, Graham, N. C, the following notes have been received by the Exper iment Station- Mr. Scott has had a large experience in feeding and train ing young horses : "All youngsters re quire plenty of exercise in a good grass paddock, and while running out days seldom need any laxative food. Good clean oats and Tiay free from dust are generally all that is necessary to keep them iii growing fix. When handling time comes, at about 2 years old, of ! (-oiirsfl we feed liberallv and as tViA grass has bean taken away we make up for; it by feeding 1 quart bran with 2 quarts oats and hay. This keeps the coifs system in a good healthy condi? tion, land' if regular feeding and atten tion is adhered to, there will seldom be needj for change of diet. Sometimes casesi occur where bran mashes or some condition powders or a handful of lin seed meal are needed while carrots and othet cooling things are beneficial Distemper sometimes appears and should be taken in hand at the first symptoms of cough, failing to eat, etc. and i preventives administered. Chief among these may be mentioned tar. Thus many bad cases are prevented. As-tne colts advance tne treatment is much the same. Sound food and reg ular care being the main requirements, in raising good horses that-will sell welL As to training, one cannot give information of much value in so short an article." Questions and Replies. The station will be glad to receive questions on agricultural topics from any One in North Carolina who may de sire to asK lor imormation. Address all questions to the "N, C. Agricultural Lxperimen,t Statiojn, Kaleigh, N. C. Replies will be written as early as pos sible by the member of the station staff most competent to do so, and when of general interest, they will also appear in these columns. The station expects in this way to enlarge its sphere of use fulness and render immediate assist ance ttt practical farmers. Cultivation of Onions. '. "I received the Bulletins you' sent, but the one on celery -and onions. No. 86, 1 do not be lieve is adapted to the climate here In the mountains. Will you let me know how much difference in time I ought to allow for differ ence in climate in following directions given in Bulletin No. 83 ? Can onion seed be sown in the fall here for early crop ?" Q. B. A., Hen dersonviMt, N. C. - ' . (Answered by "WL F. Massey, Horticulturist, N. C. Kxperiment Station.) You can safely sow onion seed in fall, but it should be done early in September so as to form small bulbs before Cold weather, There will be no trouble in growing onions from fall planted sets in your section. But you can grow better crops of ripe onions f rim the seed than you can from the se'ts. We use sets only for . getting early green onions for bunching in March for the northern market. Seeds sown in September or early October would do just as well f or this, but Autumn weather Is apt to be very dry, and the getting of a stand from seeds is uncertain. The Early Pearl or the Queen are used for this purpose. If you" will sow onion seeds in January in a cold frame covered with glass sashes, and gradually harden them to the outer air and transplant them in March, you will make larger and. better onions than by planting sets now. But the yellow Danvers is not the i best for this purpose. The Giant Rocca or the Prizetaker are best suited for this. If you are not equipped f0 this kind of work, sow the seeds vhgrg the crop is to he grown, as early as you can get the land in good condition. We sow here in February or early March. Select level, mellow land and don'tbe afraid of getting- it too rich. Land, is cheaper than human labor, therefore plant so as to cultivate with a mule." After getting this land in fine condition, mark out rows 2 feet apart with a onerhorse turning plow- In these fur rows scatter not less than 750 pounds per acre of a high-grade commercial fertilizer. Then lap two furrows on the first ones, making sharp lists or beds. Run a light roller lengthwise the beds, so as to flatten them nearly level again, and on theSe leveled beds sow the seed with a , garden seed drill. When the young plants appear above ground, go through with a small-toothed strawberry cultivator, and at this workinsr sow between the rows as much f resn fertilizer as you placed in the fur rows more will do no harm. Thin to three inches, and keep at all times "as clean as an onion bed." As the bulbs begin to form, work the soil away from them, so as to let them form mainly on the surface. You can grow better onions and a better crop in this way than you can from sets. The earliest ripe onions from sets are the Potato onions. These make no seed and sets must be used. You can plant them bit 1 1 j v i - -1 nil. j.n weu-mauureu ueus, as aooye, .ijib and you will find taeni the earlies tripe prxipns.' J5ut they are poor keepers, and as the sets are large, it costs quite a sum to plant a large area. You can get the sets in plenty in Richmond. They are In two varieties, white and yellow, The vellow arrows larcrer. For growing onions from seed in spring, I would use for early marketing as a ripe onion Early Queen. The Mamiuqth White Pompeii and" the White Garganus are also, good." But these Italian onions ihust be sold as soon as ripe, for none of the flat-hulbed Italians "will keep. But for general crop my favorite is the White Southport Globe. It grows as round and solid as a base ball, and keeps well. A globular onion will al ways give you a better crop than a flat one, and generally is a better keeper The Yellow Danvers ;a ftleo fihe. fc eprtngsqwiag. FW i red'onion, th4 New Opal, is the bes I have ever tried.' It makes a remarkably solid and hand- iome bulb 'and wiil Keep almost unti another year's crop is ripe The Prize ker is also a flne large jeUpw onion, of good shape and a fair Keeper. ', ws white and pink Bermuda onions will also do well with you and are quite early,, large and flat in, shape and must be hustled off as soon as ripe. If you plant onion sets this fall, plant on beds as directed, so as to have them slightly elevated above the general surfaee, to secure good drainage, and set them with the top of the bulb fully two inch es below the surface, and work the soil away in the - spring. But in growing the potato omon, the soil must not be worked away from them, but rather drawn towards them. We have tested nearly all the onions in the catalogues, and know that every variety can be grown as well from seed the first sea son, in the South, as they can North. .But the sowing must be early: For sowing under glass and transplanting, ise only Giant Roccaor the Prizetaker. iuucii larger bulbs of these are grown In this way, but with other sorts, re sults are not striking. Lime AVill Injure Stable Manure. Please let me know if lime is injurious to ma nure that contains stable manure or cotton seed, and is stable and lot manure injured by being exposed to sun and air lor several days as is practiced by some farmers before they drill their manure." J. B. G. Goldsboro, N. C. (Answered by H. B. Battle, Director. N. C. Experiment Station.) The addition of lime to stable ma nure is not advisable because it will tend to decompose it and liberate the ammonia ; it will also have this elrect upon cotton seed. It would be best not to allow the stable manure to be expo sed before applying to the land.. Clover and Grass For Pasture on Randy Soil. Please inform me what kind of clover is the best for pasture purposes in light salidy land ; tne time it ougnt to De sown ; wnav otner Kinds of seed to sow; with it; also the amounts of each to be used per acre." S. J. P. Kitty Hawk, N. C. (Answered by F. E. Emery, Horticulturist, N. C. Experiment Station.) It Would depend somewhat on whether you wish a permanent pasture, or only a winter and spring pasture, t or per manent pasture nothing is better than. White clover; 54 or 6 pounds per acre. Bermuda (wire) grass 2 or 3 bus. per acre Kentucky blue grass, 1 bushel per acre Eight or ten bushels of roots which have been raked out of gardens may be rnn through a fodder cutter and sown broadcast and harrowed in. This mixture should give a strong turf and pasturage nearly the year round in your section when once well started. The ground should be ma nured once in a while to supply plant food if the pasture is to be kept good, sow whenever the next month is likely to be moist and favorable to the growth of grass and clover, in early fall is a good time. Seed can be had of most of the regular advertising seedman. For winter pasture nothing can grow ahead of scarlet or crimson clover. Sow 35 to 45 pounds of chaff or 12 to 15 pounds of cleaned seed per acre. Half a bushel of rye may be sown with the clover to advantage. Warts Upon Cowb. Ilhave a Holstein cow that has warts grow ing all over her neck. Can you advise me how to cure her ?" C. B. W. Saxon, N. C. (Answered by P. E. Emery, Agriculturist, N. C.-Kxperiment Station.) These are quite common and usu ally harmless blemishes, lhey can be removed by lunar caustic, blue vitriol or chloride -of zinc. If long, first clip off with scissors then cauter ize; or they may be corded with a fine -' string when they will soon drop off. Warts are most trouble some when oh teats. If near the eyes lunar caustic should be used and applied carefully to remove the blemish without injuring those organs. The Experiment Station at Raleigh, in encouraging the dairy interests of the state, offers to co-operate with the next State Fair in conducting dairy tests of the milk cows which will be f placed on exhibit at the fair in Octo Tber. The tests will be conducted" at the home of the cows under conditions described in bulletin No. .102 of the station. The prizes are three in number, $40, 25, and $15 respectively. Write to the sta tion for this bulletin. The dairy industry in North Carolina within the last ten years has increased to a remarkable extent, far more than is generally supposed. Bulletin No. 101 of the-JN. Experiment station treats of the state's progress in this direction and gives several reasons therefor, one of which is the adoption of the "no-fence" law in so many of the counties, and another is the determined progressiveness of citizens m so many localities. The bulletins of the Experiment Sta tion go to every one of the 96 counties of North Carolina and to every post- omce m each county. ELECTRIC BITTERS. .

How to Bag Cotton. Messrs. Alex. Sprunt & Son, cot ton exporters, of Wilmington, have sent out a circular of which the fol lowing is a copy: . To OUR AftENTS AND FRIENDS: In consequence of very heavy losses sustained last season by the excess of bagging on cotton bales, the Liv erpool Cotton Association has adopt ed rules which prohibit the use of side pieces and double headings. The rule is mandatory, and all bales, pot conforming thereto yv be subject to reclamation?, . Our tiuyerg are especially darned to exercise great care iu the exami nation of each and every bale for excessive Daggmg, ana not to pur chase any cotton with side strips, or double heading. They are also di rected to giye preference to bales weighing 500 pounds and above, as nearly all charges are by the bale, ana heavy weights aro alike prefer able to producer and consumer. Compliance with the above re quirement will prevent friction and preclude the possibility of plairns arising from this cause, otherwise the producer or seller will fcive l. bear heavy losses.

The last two years have witnessed a 'regular boom in this seed all over the country, and it is now recogniz-J ed, both by experimental stations and cultivators of the sdil as a mon- i ey making crop in several ways. j Crimson clover should be sown broadcast at the rate of twelve to fifteen 'pounds per acre in the North from July 15th to September 15th; in the northern tier1 of Southern ! States until 10th of October, and in the extreme South until the end of November. It is extremely hardy, and will stand any amount of cold when well established. It grows dur- the fall, winter and spring months, and can be seeded among growing corn after the last working, or on clean stubble, in tomato fields, amongr grapes, tobacco, etc., and will take root without being raked in or covered with &oil. If the land is moist it spreads very rapidly. We have known seed to be up the sec- ond day after being sown. Probably the best way of setding is to prepare tte ground as for any other crop, and lightly rake in and roll the soil. Any kind of soil will suit this clover. It succeeds admirably on sandy soils; on those too light for ordinary clover this will succeed and make a good crop, likewise on heav ier soils. All situations seem to suit it except wet land. Crimson clovejr , if sown sufficient ly early to get large enough, will make splendid winter grazing for sheep and all kinds of cattle. We know of several lots that haye been grazed close during the winter and spring months which have afterwards made good crops to mow. There is no better crop for cutting I ' i ' jl i : ) green in the spring than this, it makes elegant tood for horses, cows and all kinds of stock. We know of keepers of livery stables who buy tnis clover in the spring bv the basket to feed their horses which improve rapidty while eating it. - It does not salivate the horses as other clovers do, but it acts s an altera tive, creating a healthy system. For cows ana other cattle, we ao not know of its equalf as a spring green food. Prof. Voorhees, of the JNew Jersey Experimental station, con cludes; fYom his experiments that one acre in bloom will feed ten cows in full flow of milk for twenty days. We have to speak as highly of it for hay as in its other conditions. Its composition and digestibility are higher than red clover and makes a superior hay. If seeded upon early sown oats, they, if cut together, will make much richer hay than timothy, though it is usually grown by itself, and to secure the best quality of hay should be cut before' the seed forms. It cures very rapidly, and should be handled carefully to retain as much leaf as possible, yet the stalks are very nutritious. It will be ready. to cut about two or three weeks earlier than red clover. Green manuring is one of the best uses for which crimson clover is adapted. . Its capacity for stooling and root formation is very great; single plants will make as high as one hundred branches and heads. It, like other leguminous plants, gath ers nitrogen from the air Vid stores it in the plant and roots, which be come available food for succeeding crops. One acre grown at the New Jersey Experimental iStation yielded MaY olst b.yy pounds or organic matter, 212 pounds of nitrogen, 52 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 183 1-2 pounds of potash. The nitrogen alone could not be bought for $30 .y and is fully equal to that found in 20 tons of stable manure, and at such a small comparative cost. Ourx perience is, that if the whole of the crop is grazed or mown and remov ed, the land j. which produced the crop of crimson, clover will be great ly improved by the action of the de composing roots, aua a succeeding croc of corn will be vastly better than a crop on adjoining soil which laid idle. The peach orchards ot Delaware have been rejuvenated by the action of crops of crimson clover and wherever grown excellent re sults have followed; of course better manorial results are obtained from the whole of the crop being turned under. In conclusion we say tuat not only can worn out sou oe more cneapiy reclaimed bv crimson clover, but highly improved soils be kept up to ml . ' their fertility with much less cost than by any other means; therefore, we say to all agriculturists, sow crimson clover every year, Long Avre Lines. Mr. M. N.
