The name of the writer should accompany the letter or article, not necessarily for pub lication, but as an evidence of good faith. Fruit Culture in the South. The Hon. Parker Earle, formerly of Illi nois, now a citizen of Mississippi, residing at Ocean Springs, gulf coast, President of the American Horticultural Society, the best authority on fruit growing in America, in his address before the interstate conven tion at Jackson, Miss., said: *T think that Southern cultivators have neglected the grape. The supply of good grape* going .Sorth ward is extremely small. I refer now to the varieties and species of grapes grown all over the North and known to be salable in all markets, and not the scuppemong. But all, or at least many, of our best varieties of table grapes appear to succeed admirably in almost fill parts of the South, from the hill and fountain districts to the very shores of the Gulf The vines grow well, they be. , well, there is little or no trouble from rot, y .. the seas*, of ripen ing is so early tha- th*' ois cmny-Ation with the great grape cro < • North. I certainly think that there are some golden opportunities awaiting the grape grower in many parts of the South.” Of the possibilities in Southern peach cul ture Mr. Earle said: “I think that there is no part of all this vast territory where the climate and soil do not permit the growth of this glorious fruit, and we may not only have it for a week or so, but with a succes sion of varieties may have it for nearly half the year. And yeti am told that fine peaches are a rarity in a majority of the Southern homes. And peach orcharding as a busi ness enterprise has never been established on a very large scale outside of Georgia, and there only by a few parties. 1 also hear talk of a great deal of failure in regions where peaches used to do well. And yet the climate has not chanced nor the soil. But the peach has succumbed to insect foes of tree and fruit but all this is remediable. I have great hope of peach culture in the South, for I think there ane no obstacles to success more than other peach districts suf fer from, and that the climate and soil are on the whole generally favorable. The difficulties in the way are want of energy in culture and management and a multitude of destroying insects. There are many people who would cultivate well if that would insure successful peach crops, but that alone will not do it. Whether there are many here or to come here, wno will both cultivate, fertilize, prune, thin out heavy crops and kill ‘bugs,’ in order to get fine peach crops and make money, I do not feel so sure. Yet, all of these things are necessary, especially the ‘bug killing.’ You have two months of season before Delaware or Michigan begins with any varieties of importance, and you have 60,000,000 of peo ple hungry for your fruit. I would not en courage anybody to plant another peach tree to be given over to borers, the broom sage and the cattle; and if there are men who will take hold of peach orcharding and master it, doing everything in the best way, they will be certain to reap rich har vests.” Mr. Earle has struck a truth in regard to what they call “poor pine lands” in the South which few people, even fanners in the pine lands, believe in. These pine lands contain nearly all the elements of rich soils, and only need the addition of pot.osh, phos phoric acid, lime and nitrogen, and humus. Pea vines, weeds plowed in and cotton seed and stable manure may furnish cheap ni trogen or ammonia; forest leaves, barnyard and stable manure, pea vines and weeds may furnish humus. Marls, limestone quarries and shell banks may furnish lime and car bonate of lime, and the best quality of kai nit and ashes may furnish potash. With these cheap amendments to the soil most of the pine lands may produce as well as the Mississippi bottoms or bottom lands any where. We have seen this proved by actual tests to our entire satisfaction. Give these pine lands and many other poor lands filling that is equal to the warp and high cultiva tion, and fine meadows, corn fields, orchards, gardens and vineyards will be seen as the result, and fine flocks and herds, and fine dairies will be as common as poor crops and poor farming are at the present time. Points in Peach Growing. There is one advantage in growing peaches in comparison with other fruit crops, says the Philadelphia Record, and that is that tho iienoh tree comes into bear ing earlier than apples or pears. From the time the young tree is transplanted to the time it begins to bear it should be given careful attention. In some localities it will liegin to bear when it is three years old from the seed. This short period is but littlo longer than is required in order to secure a Held of well-bearing blackberry canes, and permits of growing the peach in the face of the yellows and other impediments. Mince the new varieties of peaches have taken the place of the old chance sorts (he difficulties have increased and the life of the tree has lieen shortened. But, although the tree may last but a few years yet, as it conies into bearing so oarly, new trees may be planted as substitutes, though not on the same land. The duration of the life of the peach tree depends upon the soil, the fertilizer, mode of cultivation and tho freedom from disease of the pits and the tree from which the grafts are taken. An important point is to head the young trees low down on the stock, which saves much of the twisting and liend ing from the wind. If the growth is too rank for the stock, judicious pruning in the spring will be an advantage. The best fer tilizer is hardwood aches, about half a peck around each tree (not too close to the stock) twice a year being all that is required. When hearing an application of ground bone, broadcasted, is excellent. A dry, gravelly soil is best end the surplus water should bo quickly drained off. The mode of cultivating the peach orchard is very simi lar to the cultivation of a crop of corn, ns the land will then be kept clean. The peach tree will not tolerate grass or weeds, nor should any insecticide containing kerosene ail tie used on it. The borer must, lx- killed, as there is no remedy against its ravages •■xrrpt to keep a close watch and destroy it. The yellows is a disease and, though has tened by lark of plant-food, it is sometimes transmitted into the pits and grafts. Re liable nurserymen get the lorger portion of their pits from North Carolina anil Teunes ie, ns those sections are free from the yel lows. Should yellows appear destroy and burn the tree. Aa the orchard produce* early it seldom fails to pay in favorable sea soil* before the tree* are too severely injured to be unproductive. This is the time of the yaar to feed sun flower seeds to the hens, as the seadi will *aist them to molt Food liw saw ! three tiara* a weak. A Dairy Calculation. The New York Tribune says that there ore herds of cows which average fiS or SBO for the season. The extremes of product of ordinary herds will vary from #ls to #45 for the milking season. If the best cows pay a year profit the poorest live at a loss of *lO each. That is, if these cows wore killed and buried the owner would bo $lO a year in pocket. At $1 per 100 pounds of milk the poorest cow would make only 1,500 pounds of milk in the factory season, and there are thousands of cows that do no better than this. Another waste is the use of the most costly foods or the actual stint ing of food. A good cow fed only on pas ture will always pay double the cost of four or five pounds of bran daily in milk or but ter. This is more especially true of winter feeding, when straw may he mixed with hay, and the difference in value of the stra w spent in bran will make the feed worth more for product than if all hay were fed. The above is hut an example and the reader may take it as a type for thoughtful considera tion in his own special circumstances A third great waste is keeping animals past their prime. When a cow is past 8 years old she is at the best. If well cared for she will become more and more valuable up to this point; after which she declines, becomes yearly worth less for final disposition. Act ing on these suggestions may lead to a tem porary depression in the meat anil hide market and an advance in the value of good stock if the poor animals are to be all sud denly put where they w ill do the most good. But what cannot he cured should lie put an end to at once; and a good herd of ten cows all paying a profit will bring more money to the owner than an average herd of twen ty, half of which live at a loss. Brittle Hoofs. Horses, says the Boston Transcript, are frequently troubled with brittle hoofscaused by a deficiency of water in the bono. This is caused in different ways—fever of the feet or the common founder; inflammation of the interior of the foot; exposure to fer menting manure or filthy stables, by which the horn is saturated with moisture contain ing ammonia; leaving the feet covered with mud; or even continued hot or dry weather, or an unhealthy condition of the system, will produce this trouble in the feet. The horn becomes dry and granulated, and sep arates very easily, crumbling or splintering away until there is scarcely crust enough left to fasten the shoe upon. The remedy is, of course, to remove the cause and re store the moisture. Frequent washing of the feet with cold water, with attention to the health, and to give the horse clean bed ding and earth floor to stand upon, or else a deep bed of sawdust, wdll prevent it or cure it in many cases. Glycerine and water in equal parts is an excellent dressing for the hoofs. An occasional soft feed, ns bran mash with a little linseed, is also useful, lie cause it keeps the horse in good health and cool. Tar is sometimes usod as a hoof dress ing with advantage, but it needs caution in its application. A New Variety of Orange. A California correspondent of the Florida Dispatch, in writing of the different varie ties of Japanese oranges, speaks of only one of them as worthy of recommendation. This is the Kin Kin or Citrus Jnponica. The tree forms a medium-sized pyramid from 15 to “0 feet high, but can be trained. It is mast to be recommended for its supe rior hardinesi, as, if once well ‘established, a temperature of ‘JO’ to 15’ above zero Fah renheit will not injure it, as also for its early and profuse bearing capacity, the branches being literally covered with fruit. The fruit itself is oblong, of a bright golden yellow, like a medium-sized egg plum; the rind is almost as thin as a cherry’s, sweet and juicy; can be eaten with the fruit, the pulp of which is juicy, sub-acid and very refreshing; it recommends itself mostly for crystallizing and preserving, but is also eaten fresh from the tree. Cut into halves it is used in Japan during summer as an in gredient for all cooling drinks, to which it imparts a delicious flavor. Asa plant for pot culture in an eastern climate it cannot be too highly recommended, not being as tender as the other oranges. No garden, no home should be witiKkit it; no one who has ever tried it would ever want to lose it Curing Poa Vines A South Carolina fanner, writing to the Southern Cultivator, gives his plan of cur ing pea vines: Last year I hail about nine acreas in peas, planted after I cut my wheat and oats. As soon as some of the peas were ripe I commenced with a mower drawn by two mules, cutting only row nt a time, until I finisher! cutting them. When I commenced cutting the vines I put one hand to putting the vines in hacks in straight rows along the piece of pea ground, and as soon as the hand finished putting the vines in hacks or stocks I commenced the next flay hauling and put ting them in a latticed crib, placing a layer of pea vines from two two-horse wagons together, and then a layer of dry rails or poles on tops of first loads, and then another two-horse load of pea vines and then an other layer of rails or poles, and I continued in this way until I had filled my crib packed full of vines. Now, I have never seen finer hay of any kind and not a moulded vino among the lot. But the beauty of the hay was that it did not shed a leaf worth any thing. Sowing Clover in Cotton Fields. The Southern Cultivator advises as a good plan for settling <v>tton landn in clover that the rows lie plowed in as flat as possible in September and that the following mix ture of seeds boused: Red clover seed, 10 pounds; Orchard grass, 1% bushel; White clover, 4 pounds: ammonia ted superphos phate, 150 to 200 pounds. Mix seed and fertiliner and sow all together, going over the land not less than twice in order to se cure uniform distribution. Clover makes a. strong, nutritious hay by itself, hutisdifll cult to cure properly. Much better and easier to cure when mixed with orchard grass, os suggested above. Household.

Farm and Stock Notes. Young and tender herbage is greedily eaten by all classes of stock. Weeds when just shooting out of the ground are relished also. Some weeds that are poisonous when matured arc harmless when young and teu der. Fifty years ago our wild strawberry was almost unknown in the garden, yet, by careful selection and cultivation, we have non' many valuable varieties, each pos sessing different characteristics from the others. The theory that Lima beans will germi nate if placed in the ground edgewise is re futed by Prof. Ha Is ted. who has conducted a series of experiments in order to deter mine the claim. He is of the opinion that the soeds should lie laid flat on their sides. It is said that many wheat farms in the Northwest are gradually being converted into dairy farms. Butter and cheese are more remunerative than wheat at present prices. Again, dairying means a lietter system of fanning than wheat culture alone. In hot weather cream should be stirred a little every day to prevent the putrifaetive mold which soon sets in if kept quiet. It is for this reason much more difficult to make good butter with one cow thau with two or three with which churning has to be done often. The cream kept long loses some of its butter, as it is eaten out by acid. The fence comers are the pest-holes of the farm. From them spring nearly all the weed seeds and undesirable grasses which are scattered over the fields. Rail fences are expensive on account of the ground they occupy and the weeds they protect. If ne cessary, the hoe should be brought into re quisition to clean out the spaces along the fence. Flies do not bits so viciously in the dark, and the eagerness with which a cow will rush in the shade of a tree on a hot day shows how she appreciates this fact. During the very hottest weather, keeping the cow in a darkened stable is not only humane, but good policy as well. It is altogether the cheapest and easiest mode of increasing the mill: supply. It is useless to save seed from large, first class melons if more varieties than one are growing on the same location, as no relia bility can be placed on such seed next sea son. Not only will varieties of watermelons mix, but it is unsafe to grow them in the neigh!mrbood of pumpkins Corn of differ ent varieties will also mix, even when sepa rated nt great distances. Daniel Lee says, in the Southern Culti ralnr. that breeding mules and horses for cotton planters lias been the best business he could do in Tennessee during 25 years, and he believes that any other farmer, by keeping five or six. brood mares and work ing them enough to pay for their keep, might have an income of SSOO or *ti(Ki a year, and save the wages and provisions of two laborers. Wire grass is a pest that proves very troublesome, as every joint produces anew plant. If it overruns a field the surest mode of killing it is to keep the ground well shaded with some thickly growing crop, such as millet, buckwheat or peas. Wire f trass delights in plenty of sunlight. If it >ecome thickly rooted the ground should be plowed anil harrowed, and a shading crop put on as soon after as possible. The following is said to be a good recipe for curing fowls from ■■Kg-eating: “Boil an ogg and rrmove ns small a piece of the shell as may lie necessary to extract the inside, then fill the space either with mustard or cayenne pep|ier, and neatly paste n piece of whito paper over the opening. Remove all the eggs from the nest and leave this pre pared egg for ‘biddy’ to cat: one dose will fie enough generally to cure her of the de sire.” The last year of the war cotton sold at 75c. a pound, but soon after rapidly de clined. Its price of late year* has averaged lower than during slavery times and plant ers say it is grown os cheaply now as liefore the war. During the high prices, while the Southern supply was cut till, England did all she could to cn( am age cotton growing in India anil in Egypt. But the product was so inferior that the supremacy of Ame rican cotton is again assured. We can grow good cotton more cheaply than any other country. It is important to distinguish in plants the difference between what, may be termed the vegetative and reproilucti ve stages in plants, says Mr. Thomas Meehan. If a branch on an unfruitful tree he ‘‘ringed,’ - or in some other way injured, that branch is at once brought to the fruit bearingor reproductive condition So far there is an antagonism between the vegetative and reproductive stages. When the reproductive stage is reached there is another sulidivision. The part, to which nutrition most freely flows produces chiefly female flowers, while the jiart to which nutrition flows less freely yields chiefly r.iuie flowers. Any one can see this who examines a larch, a spruce or a pine. Popular Science. Carbolic acid is recommended for moist ening tile tools with which metals are worked.

It must, of course, be renewed as often as it becomes slaked. It is equally good for putting in linen chests, iron sales or wherever there is any mustiness owing to the exclusion of fresh air. Two interesting physical experiments are amusing French seientic men.
