' w»- bottles Mo, j From gentlemen who attended Ir win superior court last week the Ga zkttk learue that the Irwin county alliance, after a full, free and calm consideration of the political situa tion and its baleful influence upon tbf alliance organization,' agreed to disband and surrender its charter to the stab alliance. It was learned from the same gentlemen that, after diligent inquiry, they could not hear of a single third party man in the county. The Worth county democracy, at its mass meeting lost.

Tho transplanting of tobacoo is a matter of great importance und one that should engage the best judg ment of the planter. It is tho “Ear ly bird tlmt'cutohes the fly,” ami tlio early planting of tobacco usually oatclieH the gentest number of dollars, for in this latitude of southern Geor gia tobacco may be planted as early as the 10th or 15th of April, or ns soon as the plants are large enough and the danger of frost is over. Having prepared tho land its de- soribed in a previous article you are now ready to transplant. Tho plants should, be from four to six inches in length to insure a perfect Btund; they should he drawn from the bed very carefully. The bud should be wet, by rain or artificially, before drawing. I prefer just after a rain, for both drawing und transplanting, especially if it is to bo done by hand, but the work can bo very effectually done by applying the water ■ to the bed before drawing and to the plant after being transplanted. In setting and watering plants the hole to receive tho plant should be opened with u paddle large enough to hold a pint of witter. Bet the plant in, pour in tho water and draw in tho dirt. This Is a tedious and rather expensive method, but if the plants are li.tely to get overgrown and prospects for rain gloomy it had better be pursued. If transplanters are to be used you will only have to saturate tho bed for drawing nnd the transplanter docs the rest, Too great care cannot be taken in drawing^ the plants from the bed. You Bliould eoleot plants of equal size for certain plats und plant ac curately-leaving the bnd showing above the ground, regardless of depth, as nearly the same os possible If this method is strictly observed, the result will be uuiform growth and ripeness, which greatly facili tates tho gathering and reduces the expense of the crop. Equal caro should bo token not to bruise or skin the plants while draw ing or setting. This is one of the unaccountable reasons for so many dwarfed and Unperfcct plants in the j grown nji crop. Two or three days after first planting you should go over and iiplaut ail misting hilts and replace all weakly plants, strug gling between life and death, with a vjgoroos one, Endeavor, by oil means, to get nn uniform stand as cariy at postibie,' as your success or failure largely dopeuds upon this one point. - fxwk mtlfor cut worms, and, if found to be cutting the plants, early cultivation is the best resort, using only the hob or rake; but be caretuf and not disturb ihe soil to> Ucar tho rock of thepknto.
