 EEPORT OF Mr. J. M. BRANNON, 



SEALE, BUS8ELL COUNTY. 



Millo Maize. — Fresh soil, home mixture fertilizer used. 

 Planted April 10th, harvested July 25th. Yield was satis- 

 factory, and quality of product good. Thinks it unnecessary 

 to put aside sorghum as a stock feed. 



Red Kaffir Corn. — Stiff, sandy hill-side. Quality good. 

 Yield good. Fed to stock while green. Gave a larger yield 

 of forage than sorghum. 



Spanifh Pea-nut. — Poor sandy soil unfit for anything else, 

 no manure. Planted April 20th, harvested October 2d. 

 Quality good. Is common in this section and fruits better 

 than any other kind. 



Jerusalem Corn. — Sandy loam, clay sub-soil. Stable man- 

 ure, phosphate and cotton-seed meal composted. Planted 

 May 25th. Plant grew well and large enough and headed 

 out properly, but contained no seed. Considers it a poor 

 crop in that locality.

WALKER SPRINGS, CLARKE COUNTY. 



Alfalfa — Planted June 20. Light sandy soil. Acid phos. 

 and cotton seed meal 100 lbs per acre. Died out on account 

 of the hot summer sun. Replanted Oct. 10th, and at the 

 time this report was made, the prospect flattering for a 

 crop. 



Rape.- -Planted June 20th. Black sandy soil — stable ma- 

 tt re. Quality of product good. Fed cows, sheep, goats 

 and hogs on it and expected to save a good quantity of 

 seed.

 cotton seed meal and 50 lbs. acid phos. per acre, harvested 

 Sept. 1st. Product only fair. Came up and grew off well, 

 but the drought came on it about the time of heading and 

 cut off the crop.
