The following from the Trucker and
Farmer, of Chattanooga,. Tenn., ap-
plies to all states, not to Tennessee
alone:
I noticed f dispatch to a Louisville
paper, dated Murfreesboro. Tenn ,
that men, or creatures of men’s also,
and boys were alaughteing obtas by
and fens of thousands,
which they sold for ten cents' per
dosen. I think that ten cents per
dosen would be an extreme valuation
for the men or boys themselves, who --------
would ruthlessly and wantonly the Union,
slaughter'so valuable a bird as the
robin for such ridiculously small pay.
A letter from a gentleman at Se-
quatchie Tenth, tells me a similar
story. Re said that nearly every boy
in town, ten years or oide, had a
rifle, a shotgun, or both, and that
they made a business of shooting
birds of all kinds until they were well
nigh exterminated, oftentimes killing
for sport, leaving them without even
picking them up.

In cultivating corn the prime ob-
jects to be attained are to keep the
soil mellow and free from weeds.
Unless the ground is too Wet the first
operation after planting should be to
give the field a general harrowing. If
the ground has become at all crusted
this should be done before the corn
conies up. Otherwise it may be done
after,the corn is well up, and prefer-
ably, during the heat of the day,
when the leaves are not brittle. This

As to the depth of the cultivation,
it seems advisable under ordinary con-
ditions to cultivate deep the first tmle
and then go a little shallower each
time until the third cultivation is
reached, after which it should be as
shallow as possible in order to pre.
vent injury to the roots. When the
soil is in good condition. There. Is
no trouble with weeds, the cultiva-
tion may be shallow throughout the
season. If the soil is well prepared
before the planting, It seems that the
main benefit of cultivation la to be de-
rived from keeping down weede and
preventing baking of the son.
An increase of five bushels in the
average .yield per acre would mean an
annual increase In the value of the
corn crop of Indiana of ••,400.000.

Tooting the Planter.
Having graded the corn and made
It as uniform as possible, next find
the set of planter plates that will drop
the required number of kernels at
least 95 times In every hundred. The
planter should be set up in a conven-
Fur lares, bertha or any other travel
information desired, address
lent place and operated by hand, run-
ning through a sample of the corn to
be planted and using plates with dif-
ferent sited openings until a pair is
found that will drop the desired num-
ber of kernels every time, if possi-
ble. If the best plates available are
not quite satisfactory, the notchers
must be filled until they do the work
as required. All up-to-date planters
are supplied with a number of plates
of different sites, so that it is only
necessary to select the right set for
the corn to be planted.
To some of our readers it may ap-
pear that what we are herein recom-
mending is a little too much trouble,
but they may rest assured that the
matter has been carefully investigat-
ed and tested and that it will pay well
to give sudh attention to the prepara-
tion for planting. Three kernels to
the hill Is sufficient but if there is any
doubt about the quality of seed plant-
ed, efforts should be made to have
four kernels tn each hill.
(By A. T. Wlancko,, Chief In Bolte and
Crops, Purdue.)
Grow clover before every crop if
possible, and then use the clover, or
the manure it makes to fertilise the
corn. The nitrogen and organic mat-
ter left behind tn the roots and
stubble are not sufficient to maintain
the necessary supply In the soil.
If elover fails substitute soybeans
oroowpeas. They improve the soil In
the same way the clover does. If you
never tried either write to your state
experiment station" for information.
Use enough fertiliser for wheat or
oats so that there will be some left
over for the clover and corn.
For land which has not been manur-
ed, drill in the corn row 100 pounds
per acre of a fertiliser containing about
eight per cent available phosphoric
wid and five per cent potash.
TTor peat or muck soils, the broad-
cast applications once in two or throe
years of tOO pounds per acre of mur-
iate of potash, and the application tn
the row each season at planting time,
of about 100 pounds per acre of acid
phosphat is recommended. The-use of
nitrogen te not profitable on these
soils, as they are already abundantly
supplied with that element.—J. B, Ab-

Oom In the Drop Rotation.
To get the most profitable returns
corn must not be grown on the same
land continuously. The only exoep-
tionsto this rule are the bottom lands,
which regularly overflow and, per-
haps, some peat and muck soils upon
which field crops cannot bo regularly
rotated. On all other lands continuous
corn croping soon results in a
marked decrease in production.
A SO-year comparison of croping
systems on the Station Farm shows
that corn in various rotations contain-
ing clover, is now yielding an average
of 24 bushels per acre more than
corn grown continuously on the same
land, and !0.« bushels per acre more
than corn grown in rotation with
wheat only. A very common and de-
sirable rotation is first year grain, sec-
ond year clover and third year corn.
The last two cops in five different
rotations on the Station Farm show
an average gain of 17.1 bushels per
acre from an average application of
4.5 tons of manure per acre.

Methods of Planting.
Whether corn should be drilled or
check-rowed win depend largely upon
the likelihood of trouble with weeds.
On clean ground it matters little
which method is used, and perhaps
drilling may even give better results
on account of the more equal distribu-
tion of plants. As there are '
cases however, where there te
some danger of trouble with weeds,
it te usually considered safest and best
to plant corn in hills which can be
cultivated both ways. By careful
checking so that the rows will be as
straight crosswise as lengthwise, the
most thorough cultivation can be given
and weeds can be almost entirely de-
stroyed.
In this portion of the country it is
beat to surface plant corn, although a
furrow opener may be used to good
advantage on uneven or cloddy ground
when it is set merely deep enough to
push aside the clods and thus insure
a more uniform depth of planting and
covering.
•Time of Planting.
The best time to plant corn will de-
pend upon the weather conditions and
the condition of the seed bod. The
soil must be mellow and warm. Corn
te a warm weather plant and must nev-
er be planted In cold or wet soil. In
Southern Indiana on well drained soil,
the plantng can usually be done In the
last few days of April or the first few
days of May, while In Northern Indi-
ana, where spring comes later. It
usually be the middle of May Del
conditions are favorable. The
rule that can be followed is to plant
as soon as the weather becomes warm
and the seed bed oan be put In good
condition. Cora needs a long season
