The Farmers’ Index. All letters intended for the Editor of this De partment should be addressed, “Fahhirs' Index, Drawer 24, Atlanta, Ga.” THE STATE HORTICULTURAL SO CIETY. The annual convention met in the rooms of the State Library, at Atlanta, August sth., President P. J. Berckmans in the chair, snd Secretary Kinsey at his post. The proceedings were not marked by any event of special interest. Several interesting essays were read, and the discussions of the fruit catalogue were conducted in a familiar way, add ing the new knowledge and experience gained during the past year to the com mon stock. We were present daring a short talk on the Le Conte pear—the new variety that has attracted so much attention during the past year. It seems to be admitted that the fruit is, as to quality, “very good,” and the tree is remarkable for vigor, symmetrical growth, and exemption from blight. The readiness with which cuttings of the Le Conte strike root seems to be confined to the Southern part of Georgia, where the variety was first cultivated. It is a fact that in Thomas and adjacent coun ties, twigs of ten or twelve inches in length inserted in the ground, grow with almost the same certainty as willow cuttings; but in Middle and North Geor gia this method of propagating trees has signally failed in the experience of Such experts as President Berckmans, W. P. Robinson, Dr. Sam Hape and ethers. The annual display of fruits, which was spread in the large hall of the De partment of Agriculture, was very fine considering the season. It consisted chiefly of grapes, pears, peaches and ap ples. The display of peaches by Mr. Sam H. Rumph, of Marshallville, Ga., was the best of its kind. A new variety, Elberta, a seedling from the Chinese cling and originabed by Mr. Rumph, at-, traded universal attention. It is totally unlike its parent in respect of color, tex ture and flavor, being large in size, of a rich yellow color, free-s‘one, and of very superior flavor. It is considered quite an acquisition to the list of first class peaches. Just here we are reminded that many farmers who bring peaches to the Atlanta market, make ridiculous claims for excellence in quality of their peaches. Hundreds of bushels of dry, mealy free-stones, or hard vinegary cling-stones, of small size, are daily of fered, at fifteen or twenty cents per peck) as the “best peach in the country.” One would suppose that these vendors had never seen a really good specimen of peach. From within a radius of fifty miles or even more, Atlanta draws her supply of country peaches, and we ven ture to say what not one bushel in ten that comes from this source, can justly claim to be of even medium quality. It is just the state of things that the Horti cultural Society desires to remedy—to elevate the standard of excellence and taste, and impiove the quality of our fruit. The Society re-elected the old officers and selected Macon, Ga., as the place for the next annual meeting. FISH FARMING. Now that fish culture is assumingprac tical shape in this oountry, anything in that line is of interest. A writer from France says: Many years ag > the French government aided the first efforts made in artificial fish culture. So thoroughly did the experiments succeed, that it has become a most important industry in the country, and wherever natural lakes, creeks or rivers were to be found, they were stocked with the finny tribe. On some of the great estates, belonging to the nobility, whereby sub dividing their property or attempting to live in a style beyond their incomes, their precuniary condition has been greatly helped by converting the artificial lakes and ponds in their pleasure grounds into fish breed ing establishments; and by their pro ducts their prosperity has been redeemed. A great many less wealthy persons own ing lands too poor for Successful farm ing, and where water was abundant, have dug pond- and lakes upon their premises and have embarked in this most lucrative farming. Farmers should bear in mind the high prices, many of them have been com pelled to pay for hay the past season. In many instances hay has cost as much per poo nd as corn, and hard to get at that. The showers that have fallen in many places, have started the crab and crow foot grasses into luxuriant growth, and every effnt should be made to con vert as much as possible into hay. No farmer ever had more good hay or fod der than he could profitably use or dis pose of. It is a burning shame that the farmers of Georgia will devote their best energies to destroying grass during the growing season, and then pay their hard-earned money for western hay (so called) at ruinous prices. GEORGIA STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. SUMMER MEETING, ROME, GEORGIA, 1881. Rome, Ga., Aug., 9th, 1881. The August meeting of the Agricultur al Society, of Georgia, began to-day in this city, at 10:30 am. There is a very full attendance of the members, and all quarters of the State are represented. Even South Carolina has a delegation here, composed of the best men in that State. They received a royal reception at the hands of everybody. In the dele gation is an Ex Chancellar, a State Sen ator. the President of the South Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical Society; the master of the South Carolina State Grange—rice and sea-island cotton plan ters and many others, and every one of them, supporting or living under the operation of the stock, or “no fence” law in that State. Col. Lipscomb the Mas ter of the State Grange, was very happy in his reply to the speech of welcome. After the ceremonies of receptions and welcome from the city and farmers club of Rome and Floyd county, the Presi dent, Hon. Thou. Hardeman, Jr. read hisad iress. He gave a resume of the five years, during which he has been in office. He shows considerable prosperity and financial success in his management, and the management of the executive committee. At present the Society is out of debt, and owns nearly SB,OOO. General Brown read an essay on experi ments at his farm near Athens, Ga. Dr. J. P. Stephens, of Macon, gave a most learned and well considered essay on “The recuperation of exhausted soils. ’ THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, AUGUST 18, 1881. Major W. H. Beede, of Marshallville, read an article on ‘‘the local labor prob lem,” which caused great diversity of thought to be expressed. His views did not meet with the judgement of many and so quite a discussion was had over it. The meeting at night for experi mental conversation was devoted to it - teresting accounts of production on small farms, and paste I wi h the usual good re sults. These proceedings have consumed the first day. SECOND DAY, AUGUST 10th. This morning at an early hour, the Convention, with a large audience, met iu the splendid Nevin’s opera house. Mr. Nevins, in the spirit of true hospi tality, gave the use of his building to the Convention. The programme was re sumed and Prof. White, of Athens, spoke for half an hour, very much to the edifi cation and entertainment of the Society, on “Scientific experimentation in agri culture.” The delegation which bad gone to S >uth Carolina, made a repot t of their impressions and observations over there, especially on the fence ques tion. From their report it is clear that very soon the State of South,Carolina will be without fences, except to enclose pas tures and necessary lots for stock and cattle, near the farmers houses. In South Carolina the question has been agitated for five years or more, and the people being informed and prepared for a wise settlement of the question, have, almost unanimously agreed in thirteen counties of the State, to br. ak up the fences. The plan is successful, ai l all are satisfied with it. Several gentlemen did not appear, whose learned addresses were expected, in consequence of which the business was very much expedited. Tn the afternoon of to day, the elec tion of certain officers was had. In that for President quite a stir took place, but, after the tempest had passed,it was found that Col.Hardeman was re-elected. Then came on the usual “miscellaneous busi ness, resolutions, etc.,” which are hurri ed up, that the cars may be reached in time. The proceedings of to night consisted for the most part in addresses. The city of Savannah will be visited, when the Society has its meeting in Feb uary, 1882, unless,’he measlesand mumps should deter then from going, as was done last Spring at another place. IN CONCLUSION. The meeting of the members from dif ferent sections of the country, the inter change of opinions, and disagreements on many subject, these constitute some of the agencies which do good. This ses sion was a good one. The delegates pleased the people of Rome and iu turn they pleased the Convention. The en tertainment was superb and inexhausti ble. But, the hot weather 1 How hot it was! Ninety-eight degrees the mer cury stood, Thursday the 11th. THE STOCK LAW. The most important matter before the Convention was the stock law. It was pretty fairly presented. The effect of the discussion will be seen in results at home, in the counties of the members, where the fences begin to disappear in the older and middle counties of the State, the fences are already gone, in al most every section, but the law will le galize their destruction. . The fences, bad fences, rotten fences,for the last eight or ten years have caused the loss of large numbers of hogs, cattle, and perhaps mules and horses. The farmers in some sections have been obliged to kill them, when in their fields, to save the ungath ered crops. And the losses in the fall, by the depredations of cattle especially, are great. On Thursday, August 11th, most of the delegates took an early train and spent the day in Atlanta. A few remain ed to keep company with the delegates from South Carolina, who fell into the hands of a committee on hospitality and a right royal time was had. The colleges, waterworks, fine buildings, beautiful rivers, and Col. Sproules magnificent spring wese duly examined and all pro nounced to be very fine and satisfactory by the guests.
