Sorghum in America—An In
teresting Bit of History.
In the spring of 1856 the editor
of the American Agriculturist re
ceived a small parcel of sorghum
seed from Messrs Vilmorin, Andreux
& Co., the noted seedsmen of Paris,
■who had brought it from China. It
was planted in rich garden soil, and
grew 13 to 15 feet high, maturing its
seed well. The children of the
neighborhood found the juices of the
stalks so sweet that they used up a
large part of three rows 25 feet in
length. A sketch of one of the
plants was made and published,
with a description, in this journal of
February, 1857. It was subsequently
announced that the seed would be
distjibuted among our readers, to be
divided equally among all who should
send an envelope directed to them
selves—say 25 to 50 seeds each. This
publication brought samples to the
office from three other parties within
30 miles of New York Cdy. Soon
after, a stranger came in and tried
bard to buy all our seed. When his
offer had reached $8 a pound, he was
informed that it would not be sold
at any price, >. s it was already prom
ised to our-readers. He then pro
duced a newspaper item from the
west, where he had been traveling,
and said the interest was so great
that he could divide a pound into a
hundred or more pircels and sell
them quickly at $1 a parcel. As soon
as he left the office the editor sent
out and bought all the seed in the
three localities he had heard of, at
$5 a pound. At the same time he
wrote to the Paris seedsmen to send
him all the seed they had and draw
on him for the pay. To his surprise
consternation almost the ? re
turned word by the next steamer
that they had shippec 1000 pounds
(no Atlantic cable then) and held
600 pounds more to his order. The
whole was ordered at once, and when
the 1000 pounds arrived it was im
mediately announced that none of it
would be sold,'but that a packet of
at least 400 seeds would be presented
to any reader of the American Agri
culturist who desired it—enough to
experiment with and to supply an
abundant supply of plants the next
year if it proved valuable. Thirty
one thousand parceis were distribu
ted to our readers throughout the
country, and planted. Enough was
saved and sent to Georgia to grow
34,500 pounds of seed, during the
summer of 1857- This was sent to
this office, and a full pound given to
every reader desiring it for 1858.
From the above seed, thus widely
scattered, was produced at least nine
tenths of the sorghum produced in
this country. A small quantity was
sent out from the patent office and
some sold by dealers. Hundreds of
millions of gallons of syrup were
made and used during the war when
the usual supply of southern grown
sugar was cut off. It was worth
many millions of dollars to the coun
try. But such difficulty was experi
enced in producing good sugar that
the cultivation fell off after the sup
ply of south grown sugar came in.
Quite a “boom’’ was started later on
by high claims asserted for a variety
called the African “Imphoe,’’ but this
soon died out. Recently, the im
proved processes of obtaining the
saccharine matter in crystalline form,
as sugar, have given a new impetus
and promising results are antici
pated.— American Agriculturist.
Grade and Scrub Calves—Tire
Difference in Price.
Will we never the difference
in breeding grade cattle and scrubs ?
About ten days ago a cattle buyer
came through this section and bought
every good grade calf and steer he
could find for sale. The writer sold
him 15 calves about one year old for
sls each—two calves in the lot were
under one year old, and were rated
at $lB each. They were good grades
and had been well treated. The
general average of the calves of the
country at the same age can be
bought for $7 to $lO each, which
shows the great difference in the
classes of cattle. These grade calves
nearly all go to Kentucky to be
grazed, and in 12 months will be
worth four cents per pound in the
eastern markets, while the scrubs
left for us will be worth about one
and a half to two cents per pound,
and will cost as much to carry them
as the grades.
These facts have been presented to
the farmers time after time, and still
they go on heedlessly, paying little
attention to the breeding of then
cattle, and betting their “bottom dol
lar” on cotton. When a field is
seeded to clover it is eaten out "root
and branch” by scrub stock that do
not pay for their keeping. The owner
comes to the conclusion at once that
clover and stock don’t pay, and puts
the land in cotton the next year.
I think the legislature ought to
pass, at its next meeting, a scrub
bull law, not for killing sheep, but
for bringing financial distress upon
the country to a far greater extent
than the dogs do by killing sheep.
I am satisfied, from close observa
tion, that one-half of the farmers of
our country lose annually enough
money to pay their state and county
taxes on account of scrub bulls being
permitted to run at will.
I must say in behalf of our intelli
gent people that the cattle of the
country have been much improved
during the last five years, but it
might be done much more rapidly.—

The Missouri Republican records
the history of a granger store at
Lewiston. It has a capital of only
$2,200, contributed by farmers in the
neighborhood. Ou this it did a busi
ness last year of SIO,OOO. After
paying out of the profits all the ex
penses and a dividend of 10 per cent,
to the stockholders, and setting apart
one-fourth of the remainder as a re
serve fund, there was enough left to
pay a dividend of 6 per cent, to the
customers on the amount of their
purchase during the year. The busi
ness of the store is conducted strict
ly on the cash system. This, together
with the fact that it turns its capital
over five time a year, on the average,
is the secret of success.

Messrs. Coppock & Johnson: Newbebby, S. C., July 17, 1879
Deab Sibs—l have been using the Emerson & Fisher Buggy I bought from you as
roughly, I suppose, as any one could. I had a fast horse, drove him at full speed, some
times with two grown ladies and myself in the buggy, and it is to-day worth all the
money I paid for it. I say the Emerson & Fisher Buggies will do.
A. M. TEAGUE, Farmer.
The favorable reputation the Carriages have made in localities where they .have been
used for several years by liverymen, physicians, and others requiring hard and constant
use, has led to an increased demand from those localities, to meet which the manufactur
ing facilities of their mamm th establishment have been extended, enabling them now to
turn out in good style

When You Get a Newspaper, Get the Best.
o
During the coming year — a year that will witness the progress and
culmination of the most interesting political contest that has ever taken
place in this country —every citizen will be compelled to rely upon the
newspapers for information. Antioipatingtbo wide-spread desire for the
fullest information, the publishers of the Kaglb have perfected arrange
ments for making it a more complete newspaper than ever before, and to
present to the people of Northeast Georgia everything of interest trans
piring in the State, the Union, and foreign lands.
As a newspaper, the Eaglb will endeavor to give the cream of everything
in that shape which may enable its readers to keep fully informed of current
events with the least possible expenditure of time.
Asa home and fireside journal, its litearry matter will be in the future as
in the past selected from the very bast sources, pure and chaste, and worthy
a place at the fireside of every home within the range of its circulation.
As a political journal, it will be unqualifiedly and uncompromisingly
Democratic. Believing in the eventual triumph of the principles of that
party, it wfill uphold and defend it in season and cut of season until it shall
cease to make them its rule of action. A competent and experienced
Washington correspondent will keep our readers fully posted as to affairs at
the nation’s capital.
In State no less than in national or foreign affairs our readers will be
kept posted on everything worth knowing. Our State News department
will be carefully edited, full and reliable.
The Agricultural department will likewise receive due attention, and the
farmer and housewife will always find something of interest, instruction
and profit.
To sum up, it will be a first-class family, political, agricultural and news
journal, and will be brighter and better than ever before, discussing tersely,
vigorously and seasonably all matters of interest to the public.
