Lucerne.
This grass we believe to be the premium
grass of Middle Georgia, However it may
compare with other grasses in other climates
and soils, hare it is the best and cheapest for
soiling and for hay, and when once woll set,
it will last for many years.
It should be sown in drills just wide onottgh
to allow working in between rows, and the
proper seasons for sowing are October and the
early Spring, say February and March. Ten
pounds of seed will sow an acre woll; costs 40
to 50 cents per pound at retail
The land should be turned over as deep ns
possible, and tho subsoil well broken. Use
tho hnrrow to pulverize and in,ike it smooth,
and apply as heavy coatings of manure as pos
sible, Ifcommercial manures are used, a rich
soluble phosphate is the best article, with a
small percentage of ammonia. Lucerne roots
are long and deep, and it is essential to its
profitable culture to givo it a deep subsoil.—
I lie soil best adapted to it is clay upland, or
at least with a clay subsoil. Any of our lands
of this character will grow it finely if made
rich onough and deeply plowed.
While tho plants aro young, clear out tho
grass, and at all stages and times, giro it at
tention enough to keep weeds out. Lucerne
will grow and yield annual crops of great value
for twenty years or more, if it is onco favorably
established.
When it has grown up 12 to 24 inches, ac
cording to the strength of the soil, cut and feed
green, or olse cure for hay. All kinds of stock,
hogs included, will give it preference over
clover or any other grass. It will grow up
promptly after each cutting, and will furnish
four or five good crops every summer. We
have never known it to be killed out by being
cut too much, but would recommend that to
ward the close of summer it should be let alone,
to mature its seed, which is the proper function
of nature, and by which course, no doubt, the
thrift and yield the following year will bo in
creased. The roots spring up afresh always
in Spring.
We have under our yearly observation, end
at no great distance from Augusta, a growth
of Lucerne that has existed for twenty-five
years, within our own knowledge, and most
probably was sown twenty years before we
ever saw it. It is about the borders of an ex
tensive garden; and has been ent for green
feed many times yearly in all this length of
time, and often, too, grazed down by horses
led into the garden for that purpose. Yet with
such use, and even abuse, the roots have lived
and flourished, and still send up their rich
green foliago with the beginning of every
Spring.
Now, who would not have stlch a grass?
And who can tell of a forage plant possessing
more or as many good qualities? So abundant
are the crops it yields, that even the borders
of a small city garden would half support a
cow during three or four months, 'many
years, if they were once sown with tnccrue.
Indeed it is particularly adapted to use on
borders since it doe 9 not spread nor give trofiblc.
and the roots running deep and strong, will
hold ffp the earth like a wall.
If our Farmers would one aOro, or hut
a half or quarter acre, and would do it fairly,
preparing and sowing it as directed, not one
of them' woifld live to regret it but would
leave the crop as a rich legacy to generations
to'come. The mere fact of its durability, as
we have witnessed for twenty-five years, es
tablishes tho adaptability of Lucerne to our
sr.il and climate. In the dry and arid districts
of Southern France and Italy, this grass is the
universal relianco for a large part of the for
age of the country.
The Fortunes of Presidents.
Jefferson died comparatively poor. Indeed,
if Congress had not purchased his library, and
given for it five times its value, ha would with
difficulty have kept the wolf from the door.
Madison saved money, and was comparative
ly rich. To add to his fortune, however, or
rather that of his widow, Congress purchased
his manuscript papers and paid §39,000 for
them.
James Monroe, the sixth President of the
United States, died in New York so poor that
his remains found a resting place through the
charity of friends,
John Quincy Adams left some $150,000, the
result of industry, prudonce and inheritance,
lie was a man of method and economy.
Martin Van Buren died very rich. Through*
out his political life ho looked out for his in—
tererest. It is not believed that he ever spent
thirty shillings for political purposes. His
party shook the hush and he caught the bird.
Paniol Webster squandered a million in his
lifetime, the product of his professional and
political speculations. Ho died leaving his
property to his children and his debts to his
friends. The former sold for less than 820,-
000, the latter exceeding $250,000.
Henry Clay left a handsome estate. It prob
ably exceeded SIOO,OOO. He wak a prndent
manager and a scrupulously honest man in all
his transactions.
James K. Polk left about $250,000 ; sdo.ooo
of which he saved from his Presidency of four
yC John Tyler left $50,060. Before he reached
the Presidency he was * bankrupt. In offico
he huMmnded'his means and then marriod a
r ich wife?, ,
Zachary Taylor left $150,000.
Millard Fillmore is a wealthy man, and
keeps his money in a strong box. It will not
be swallowed up in speculation nos squandered
'"Ex-President Pierce saved some $40,000 from
his term of office.

The Law of Cotton Hales.
An not of February 28, 1871, passed by Con
gress, prescribes ‘that no loose hay, loose cot
ton, or loose hemp shall be carried as frieght
on any steamer carrying passengers ; nor shall
haled cotton or hemp be carried in such steam
ers the bales are compactly pressed,
and thoroughly covered with bagging or simi
lar fabric, and secured with good rope or iron
bands; and every bale of cotton or hemp that
shall ho shipped or carried on any passenger
steamer without conforming to the provisions
of this sections shall bo subject to a penalty
of five dollars ; which bale shall be liable to
soizuro and sale to secure the payment of such
penalty.
This, the Journal of Commerce thinks, ought
to be a sufficient inducement to planters to
cover their cotton as well as to pack it proper
ly. This act is now in force, and as the pen
alty is easily collected, and half, ns tho Jour
nal infers, goes to the informer, our South
ern friends will do well to stir up all their
packers on this subject. Every bale of cotton
packed this fall and winter ought to be care
fully covered in conformity with the provisions
of this law.—Chronicle & Sentinel.
