The farmers’ Index. All letters Intended tor the Editor o! this De partment should be addressed, “Fabmxiu’ Index, Drawer 24, Atlanta. Ga." REFRIGERATING WITHOUT ICE. We occasionally read of devices for cooling and keeping cool, without ice, butter and such like things. The pro cess generally depends upon the principle that evaporation of moisture from the surface of an object has the effect of re ducing its temperature or that of any substance in contact with it. Let a plate of butter be set in a shallow pan or dish of water and a porous earthen-ware flower pot be inverted over it, so as to dip into the water. If the flower pot be unglazed, or of such material that it will draw up the water and keep itself con stantly wet, the evaporation will reduce the temperature of the pot and of the butter considerably—not so low as is of ten stated, but enough to make the but ter comparatively firm. The reduction of temperature thus ef fected depends upon two conditions of the air, vizdryness and motion. The less moisture there is present in the air the more rapid will be the evaporation of moisture from the surface of any ar ticle. The air may then be said to be more thirsty. At the same time, the motion or constant change of the air with reference to the object to be cooled has the effect of increasing evaporation by constantly presenting frdsh and dryer air to the evaporating surface. The dry er the air, then, and the greater the cir culation, the greater will be the cooling effect of such a contrivance as we have described. On a damp, muggy day, the evaporation and its consequent cooling effect will be at a minimum; on a dry, breezy day—at a maximum. In very warm wehther such an expedient cannot be more effectual than the continual, direct application of cold well or spring water, but it has the advantage of being more convenient, as the water used in keeping the pot wet need not itself to be cold. The process may be varied in its mode, of application—the principle being the' same. A pitcher of milk, or a melon may be closely wrapped with one or two folds of thin cloth which may be kept constantly wet by water dripping slowly from a vessel placed above it. On a dry, hot day in summer, when there is no prospect of rain, the temper ature of a body may be reduced usually from twelve to twenty degrees by evap oration-provided there be a free cir culation of air—and sometimes even more. The amount of reduction by this means is a fair indication of the proba bility of rain—the greater the reduction the less the prospect for rain, and vice versa. Upon this very principle the psychro meter, or wet and dry bulb thermometer is constructed. It consists of two equal thermometers similarly exposed,the bulb of one being kept constantly wet by hav ing one end of a piece of hollow lamp wick drawn over it, the end dipping into a small cup of water. The difference be tween the readings of the two thermo meters is a more or less reliable indica tion of the probability of rain. Such an instrument is in constant use at each of the signal stations of the country. BERMUDA GRASS. “Does it ever get beyond the farmer’s control? “Has it ever taken possession of plant ations in Georgia, and forced the owners to give them up ? "What is the best means of destroying it when there is a small quantitX?” Your correspondent asked for informa tion. I give you my observation and ex* perience of seventy years. That takes us back to its first introduction into the vic inity of Powelton, Hancock county, Ga. Seventy years ago my father lived one mile and a half from Powelton, on the road thence to Greensboro. The house and kitchen yard were about 100 yards from the road, with an outer gate open ing on the road, and two acres inter vening between the yard gate and the outer gate. The yard was near an acre, set with young forest growth, except on the northeast corner where no trees grew. About April, seventy years ago, my father returned one evening from Sparta, after serving as grand Juror. Horse-back was the only style of travel in those days, with saddle bags for his wardrobe. He had been gone a long time, three days and two nights, to attend court; and staid until it adjonrned. A long journey, thirteen miles. A great occasion, and a grand business. All glad to see him, just at night, wife, mother and children. I was one of these, I remember it well, just eleven years old. In he came, saddle bags on his arm, sat down, saddle bags between his feet, said court was over, began to draw the strap with the brass hasp that closed the open edge of the bags at the middle. We stood around, on tip toe, to see what would come out. A ginger cake, we thought, but dare not ask. One would be a thrip, two for seven pence, and four for pistereen. Yes, four, we thought; there were four of us. But no, the sad die bags opened, out came a paper bundle about the size of a quart pot. Here, said pa to ma, is a wonderful thing for the yard, “Bermuda Grass.” A friend gave the roots. Here they are, and we will set the yard and need no more mats. This was the first of Bermuda Grass in that region, seventy years ago. It was not seen or heard of before. It was new to every one. Next day the plows were set going in the yard, plowing and cross plowing. The ground was then raked over and check ed with a scooter, two feet each way, and one sprig put in each check most carefully. It all grew readily; and in two years it covered the yard, and was feeling'its way to the garden in the rear, and the big gate on the road. There was no stop ping it. Cattle, hogs and sheep would carry it in their feet everywhere they went. For the next four years I observed the progress of Bermuda grass. I then had never seen it elsewhere, but since have reason to believe that about this time it had been introduced in Greene, Ogle thorpe and Wilkes counties. In 1817, sixty-four years ago, I went to Franklin College. Dr. Findley died, and I was transferred to South Carolina College, Columbia. Coming home at intervals, I noticed the progress of Ber muda grass at and around my father’s house. THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, JULY 21, 188 I . In December 1819,1 returned from col lage. This grass had taken possession of my father’s plantation, had gone into the public highway, and was moving to wards Powelton and Greensboro. This wat sixty years ago, and eight years from the time it was brought to my fa-, liter’s house. I have not seen that locality since. The people there can advise you, but from what I have seen and heard, it has possession to the Savannah river, to Thomson on the Georgia Railroad and to the Chattahoochee West and North. In 1826, fifty-five years ago, I b gan house keeping in Eatonton, Ga.., on the lot now occupied by Mr. Edmund Reid. The house fronted to the courthouse, on the street from the church to Milledge ville, seventy five yards from and south, of this street. The garden then was where now is a commanding grove of forest trees, but then a rich ground plentifully stocked with best vegetables and not a tree in it. Between the house and street, about a rod from the front door, was a small gate opening into the garden. From the door to the gate was a foot way, well set with Bermuda grass about half a rod wide. There was no other such grass in the vicinity, and this only a rod by half a rod. It must be destroyed, we said, or lose the garden; and we went at it with shovel, grubbing hoe, and rake in the spring. It was dug to the bottom, the roots carefully separated and put into a wheelbarrow and wheeled into the street. It required several days. It was care fully raked over and leveled. We looked at it with satisfaction, be lieving it was all killed. But in Septem ber following it came up as thick as wheat. Not discouraged, we repeated the work next spring, putting every spadeful of earth through a sieve, and the roots into a wheelbarrow, and then into a fire in the kitchen—kept up for that purpose, because what we put in the street grew finely and was coming at us from that point. • We completed the Job, and felt sure we had a triumph. But next season it came again as thick as wheat. We gave it up as it was now entering into the garden. When then plowed it up and set the ground up in all manner of forest trees, not excepting old field pines, sweet gum and maple, elm, etc. From this, this grass took Eatonton and Putnam county. It now covers all the adj icent counties. Fifty years ago, Mr. J. L. Moody, a thorough cultivator, lived on the Wade farm, six miles from Madison, on the road to Eatonton. Bermuda grass got a set in his lane, between two fields of choice land. He was a man of strong purpose and determined will, and had ample men and horse power, and resolv ed to exterminate it. He plowed, hoed, and raked it up, and hung it up on the fence, and stumps, and stakes, so that at midday it made one feel as if the shades of evening, or the long moss that hangs upon the trees on the Florida line, were about him. Moody thought he had kil led it, but next spring it took the field. Forty years ago I passed, Moody had left. The plantation was in Bermuda grass, and a waste, while a good two story brick mansion looked like -a de serted castle. During the was I refuged from Etowah to AthenSj and Wilkes county. I found this grass in possession from Chattahoo chee river to Augusta on that line; also from Atlanta to Macon and Columbus, and from Columbus to Newnan. I have not observed it in Cherokee, Ga. It would be sad to see it here, as this section is now ruined and impoverished by cotton and guano. Clover, rye aAI pea vines are the rescue. These will not stand with Bermuda. Without these and a change of crop products, the country will jje handed over to “Ber muda” and the present owners must leave. Middle Georgia is its place, climate and soil. It needs a warm climate. Very cold weather kills it. It retires from a dense forest, covered with leaves, and goes to sunny places. It is self-sustaining, will, live in stony ground and thin soil. Luxuriates in rich land, up or low land, and in wet places. It sods in a quag mire so tnat you may walk over on it. It will cross small streams, grow in the water and dam them up. It will hold up railroad em bankments, and live and grow on .the bare naked red clay hills, cross and fill up the gullies, making on the clay in its innumerable fibrous roots a rich black mould to feed on. It is the best for cattle, horse, sheep and hogs to graze on. They prefer it, and the hoof does not hurt it. It is the first in spring and last in fall, but the upper growth dies in winter. A moderate crop of corn or cotton may be made where it is by a determined pur pose and power enough. “Best means to destroy a small quantity." Feed and fatten hundred hogs on a quar ter of an acre from Ist of September to 25th of December. They will kill it. The grass may have its time to live and period to die. If so, I have not lived long enough to know it. I have never seen its blossom or its seed. Mark A. Cooper. [Our venerable friend has made many strong points in behalf of Bermuda in his entertaining article. Indeed, with the single exception of its hay producing quality (which he probably overlooked) little more could be said in favor of any grass —perhaps not so much. It only re mains for the reader—in the light of much more recent experience of Middle Georgia farmers —to decide whether or no he will risk it on his farm. We think if one half of the area now devoted to cotton in Middle Georgia, were covered with Bermuda grass, and sheep and other grazing stock, the country would be infinitely better off.
