brick and stone residences, whose elabor

Mississippi.
Although Kansas City has never as
sociated itself in our mind a* a place of
any special standing or interest among
American cities, it is evident that a good
many people of wealth and taste are
managing to put up with it.
Under the triple alliance of the Union
Pacific, the sleeper Kau>rht and a gener
ous draw on our treasurer, we were soon
comfortably launched on our westward
journey.
There was nothing, ull that day hut
the prairies of Kansas. The Septemlier
air was rather uncomfortably warm at
noontime, and the scenery was princi
pally distinguished by its monotony.
Through the first half the state there
were many neat, pittty towns, in which
the.school house was always conspi.
ly large and well built.
thrifty industry, and sleek cattle give
life to the scene.
At Colorado Springs the scene changes,
and from there to Pueblo we have a most
uncomfortable ride through a desert
looking country, with the thermometer
at 98°. The dry, scorching heat of
Pueblo, at an elevation of 8,000 feet, is
accounted for by a higher altitude all
around it, the depression in which it
reats cutting it off from the breeze in all
directions. It is said to have the com
pensatory advantage of living protected
from the piercing blasts of winter's icy
breath. Large mining industries have
built up its population to 23,000. After
a fairly good dinner here, we leave be
hind us the only city of any pretentions
as to size between Denver and Salt lake
city.
The uucomfortable heat continues for
several hours after leaving l*ueblo, and
although the dreary plateau is changed
into bold ledges of white rock, and blue
mountains shape themselves on the hori
zon once more, little pleasure follows the
change, as a fine alkali dust fills the car,
blinding the eyes and irritating the air
passages.
The soil is of a dull slate color except
where hidden hy sage-brush, that most
depressing form of vegetatien.
There are evidences of a recent moun
tain flood in the baked and cracked-opeu
■oil and the collection of debris, but
water as a regular supply is evidently
not here, only an occasional branch, and
not a river have we seen since leaving
Denver.
Hot, tired and dust-stifled we reached

I native heath. We drank in health in
' her pure air ami cool mountain water,
' we saw a commercial growth and a husi-
I ness vim tliat showed to us this new civ
ilization in a dazzling light, and we drove
for hours past beautiful homes whose
fair proportions are a monument to the
quarried wealth of the Rockies.
There is doubtless poverty in Denver,
but if so it did not wear the wan, help
less look by which we are wont to recog-
lt. Colorado mining soil isproductive,
never affect)*)I by droughts or freezes, and
her farmers dig, not the unstable potato,
but noh-perishahle crop* of gold, silver
and iron.
Using Denver as our headquarters, we
made three distinct excursions into the
state. The first was over the Colorado
branch of the Union Pacific to Greymont,
passing through the beautiful Clear
Creek Canon and doubling the great
Georgetown /««/>, that world famous feat
in engineering skill. The second trip
took us up to and over Como pass, 13,000
feet up in cluudland, gave us the novelty
of a snowstorm in September, and found
us at night in the mining city of load-
ville. Here we purchased flannel under*
wear and imbibed ozone, what time our
chattering teeth would |*ermit, in an al
titude of 11,000 feet above sea-level.
Our returning route from this jaunt took
in a day and night at Manitou, the

whose mineral springs are many and
wonderful. Here the hardy tourist is
invited to a fifteen mile climb on mule-
back to the top o! like’s Peak. We
preferred a trip to the “cave of the winds”
and a ride through the “garden of the
Gods,” nature’s park of rough-hewn,
rocky statuary.
Now we find ourselves, after these
various little excunuons, ready to em
bark ou the ride across the state on the
marvelous little narrow gauge railway,

skill has no parallel in the world, the

Afjer 1 miles the exciting chase comes
to a halt on the crest of Marshall Pass
where we find ourselves breathing, with
more or less difficulty, the rarefied air of
an altitude of
11,000 FEKT ABOVC THE8HA I.KVEI..
Night is now coming on and we look
with satisfaction at the crescent moon
that promises to add a new beauty to the
downward ride. But after a time, as we
do not start, a whisper of “trouble aliejid”
is communicated from car to car. It is
a lonely spot, and anxiety appears on
many faces; but no romantic miss is
treated to the delicious episode of a train
robliery. A snow-shed two miles below
us is on fire, and the conductor speaks
of a probable two hour* detention.
Being railroad people, and acquainted
with conductor*, we make up our minds
to spend the night on the top of the
Rockies, and only breathing a sigh for
more air, even if not as pure and cold,
wc turn into our berths and make our
selves a* comfortable as possible with
heads fit to 1 Hirst, eyes burning ami lips
ami nose swollen to a size that makes the
cover of darkness a grateful pall.
The iHirning of this snow-shed, built
to protect the track from drifts in winter,
continues fiercely and long, so that
little wonder that ere long theorder comes
over the wires for our return to Salida.
So, after all, we saw Mar dial l Pass
under the fascinating beams of the pale
moonlight,but it was the eastern side over
which we had just come in the glory of
the sunset.
As the morning sun was tipping the
mountain tope with a bright good
morning,'we started up the pass again,
seeing new beauties in the early light,
and making the descent without steam,
with a careful adjustment of brakes

thorough cultivation) then apply your
compost In drills or broad cast, followed
by drilling a goml tobacco fertilizer along
the furrow at the rate of 130 to 350 Hh

of the soil and the quantity of manure

horse turning plow lapping four furrows

ferent utensils and cultivation, and there
fore the judgment of the planter must
guide him. as no fixed rules can success
fully followed. The diversity of soils
and the vicissitudes of # season preclude
any fixed line of action.
I’RUNIXG and TOPPING.
So soon as the plants shall have at
tained sufficient size and the seed button
is discernible, prune off the small lower
leave* of the dark export type to six
inches up the stalk from the ground
ami pinch out the seed bud, leaving 8 to
14 leaves on the plant, the number left
varying according to the fertility of the
soil. An average of 9 leaves to the plant
makes the richest and most salable pro
duct.
For the yellow and other manufactur
ing types it is best not to prune, but to
gather the lower leaves a* they ripen and
cure them for Hinoker*. White Burley
and cigar tobacco may be topped leaving
ten to fifteen leaves to the plant.
WARMING AND SUCCORING.
The hud and horn worm* must Ik*
carefully picked from the plants as they
make their appearance «* they will in
flict greater damage to the crop. The
former is most destructive early, and 1n»-
forc the plant* are topjHsl the latter
come* in two brood*; the first in May,
and if these are destroyed, the quantity
in July and August, (their first and
second appearance in south Georgia) will
be greatly curtailed. Various modes for
destroying worms ami the moth have
been resorted to, but none so successful
a* hand-picking ami killing.
Suckers will sprout out at the axils of
leaf ami stalk after the plants arc topped
ami these must lie pulled off as fast as
they attain the length of two to four
inches. If permitted to grow large they
sap the juices of the plant and detract
j from the size ami richness of the leaves.
CUTTING AND HOUSING.

leaf will crack open from pressure be
tween the thumb ami linger when folded
over. White burly and cigar are har
vested not so ripe a* indicated for the
leaf types.
Tobaccos of the several type* are hung
in several ways. Some cut the plauts
bv splitting them down the middle of the
stalks ami straddliug them across laths.
Some tqiear the plants using a *|*oar-like
instrument, hollow at one end to lit the
lath; others string the leaves pulling
them from the plants as they ri|»eii and
string them iqioii win*I sticks, while
others use cotton twine in the place of

PLANTING.
Having prepared the hills, you are
ready to plant any time after the 20th
of March, planting is often most effect
ually done when the hills are lieing
made, and the land is moist with the-
winters sap, by planting in-the afternoon
bills are made the same day. If prop
erly planted very few of the plants will
fail to live. Observe to draw the plants
one beyond from the lied nnd handle so
as not to bruise them, put a basket of
plants in the hands of a boy or girl, who
drops a plant on each hill, dropping one
or two rows according to age or expert
ness. The men follow with each a plant
ing peg made of hard wood, <> inches
long, one ami a quarter incen in diameter
at lar^e end and tapering to a point,
each planter takes a plant in his left
hand, and pushing his planting peg some
two inches into the hill, withdraws the
peg, inserts the plant, and by a dexter-
ious movement of the peg anti the knuck
les of the left hand, doses the dirt gent
ly but compactly around the roots.
After planting over the first time, it will
be necessary to replant from time to time
as seasons occur, embracing evetv oppor
tunity to fill up the missing hills.
CULTIVATION.
Commence cultivation as soon as the
transplanted plants hare taken root,
which will be in from ten to fifteen days
after setting out, and continue to stirthe
soil with plow and hoe every two weeks
until the leaves begin to lap across the
rows, after which the band boe must be
used; frequent cultivation when the plant
Is young tends to promote rapid and vig
orous growth. Every mode of cultiva
tion which is frequent and thorough and
very similar for the cabbage ciop will
suit tobacco. Different soils require dif- j_
look at them.

A WORLD'S FAIR MAP.
WhM FlnliUrd |t >V1II Cum Smi
The United Stutes geological survey
is been for ten years engaged in mak
ing a great map of the United States,
parts of which wfll be on exhibition at
tho world’s fair. The piece, six feet in
length aod four feet in width, now
ready, includes the state of Connecticut
and a bit of Long island and eastern
New York. This vast map will take at
least twenty-five more years to com
plete. Its detail is such that upon it
will be indicated every stream, brook,
hillock, mountain, valley, farm, village
and city. It will show every public and
private rood as completely as a survey
or’s map of a small township. This
map, when completed, would, if spread
out, cover a little over three-quarters of
an acre in superficial area. Of course it
would be impossible to suspend such •
map aa to make it available for practical
use, and therefore it will have to be
published in sections.
(n addition to this piece of the map
of the United States the geological sur
vey is preparing an outline map of the
country, which will also be exhibited at
the fair. It is to be spherical in shape. By
It at a glance the different elevations,
the tablelands, the mountain ridges and
the valleys will be indicated in the out
line, the highest peaks of the moun-
rains being proportionately elevated as
siuch above the sea level as are the
veaka of the Rocky mountains above
•he Atlantic and Pacific coast lines:
