Fruit culture iu the South is, com paratively speaking, in its infancy; especially is this the case in South western Georgia. When our people get their consent to look to some other s>urco for mon ey, outsido the culturo of cotton, wo are of tho opinion that Fruit Culture will claim much of thoir attention — and tlio business will be more pleasant and more profitable than that of cot ton growing. Tho question arises in tho minds of those who have decided to have ail orchard, where shall I got the trees, grafts ? etc. Is it safe to buy from tho Northern nurseries ? This question has boon propounded to us, aud we unhesitatingly say to all, that it is not at all safe. There are some Northern fruit trees that will stand the transfer and bottom* * acclimated ; there are others that will not. Now, the question to settle is, do we, at tho South, who have given this subject but little attention, know what to buy, and what to let alone ? There are but few of us who can, of our own knowledge, give an opinion on tho subject, and must depend entirely on tho statements made hy the agents of these nurseries, or the circulars sent out by them. These agents may be honorable, high-minded jusiness men —wo do not say otherwise—but how are we to know them to bo such ! Each and everyone will have recom mendations from parties at the North, all of whom are strangers to us ; hence wo are left to deal with men we know nothing of. We do not wish to injure any man, nor do wo wish to say one word that will deter any one from em barking in the business, but we do say it is safer 'and better to buy your trees from Southern nurseries. There arc nurseries at Atlanta, Ac. gnsta, Macon, Columbus, and other poinfs owned by men who have stud ied the business, and who can inform parties from tho diifoivnt sections as to the kinds of trees to purchase loi their particular section, and give such other information as wo may need ; and if they sell to us a something that does not come up to tho rocommenda tions, we know where to go to get re dress. The following is taken from the Mobile Register, and is to the point: We know very well that* it is to the interest of Northern nurserymen to combat those views, and “it is but nat ural” that they should do so. “They desire all the trade themselves,” ami hence no means aro left untried to convince the people of the South that acclimation is a humbug ; that North ern trees are as good for the South a? Southern, aud Northern varieties as perfectly adapted to our climate as those of Southern origin. At this mo ment there are hundreds of Northern tree peddlers, or “agents,” as they call themselves, perambulating the South, with picture boos iu baud, dissemina ting these dieas, duping and the peo ple of tho South into the purchase of Northern trees. As an illustration, and as confirmatory of the views we have expressed, an intelligent fruit grower of Louisiana, in a business letter to us of recent date, writes as follows : “We ha v e a canvasser through Mississippi and Louisiana this spring, from one of the Roches ter liur.- eiics, and happening to l'all in his company a few days since on a steamer from New Orleans, 1 was sur prised to hear him say that he had obtained orders, amounting in the ag gregate to some eleven thousand dol lars. It seems to me that our South ern nurseries must adopt some such course to circumvent these enterpris ing pushing Yankees, who, in many instances, are me. e Yankee cheats , botu to save themselves and maintain a healthy and successlel lruit culture in tho South. * * * It is to be re gretted that tho Southern people are so easily imposed upon, and, think so superficially in reference to matters of the most vital importance touching their material interests and worldly in dependence and comfort. Notwith standing the real experience and fail ures of the past on the part of tho.- e who have attempted to cultivate fruits from trees grown in the Northern States, our people still foolishly and thoughtlessly venture on in the same path, to meet with the same failures, i Something About P.anting Out <<u Orchard. A correspondent at Butler, Georgia, writes as follows: “I want to plant orchards, this fall, of peaches, apples, etc.—also a vine yard, and will couside it a favor if you will tell me the best varieties for Middle Georgia My land is rich and fresh. What is the proper distance to plant so as not to interfere with the cotton crop, planted in the orchard ? I set out last spring a lot of young ap ple trees ; o. eof them, planted by a pen used for keeping ashes, which is I three times as large as any of the rest was about the same size when plan-1 ted.” The proper distance h r planting peach trees, standard pears, cherries and plums, is Irena fifteen to eighteen feet, where the trees are intended to occupy the entire ground. Apple trees should have more sjtace —irom twenty to thirty feet Where parties intend their land for other crops in connection with lruit, the rows should bo from forty to sixty loot apart, aud the trees in the row from twelve to eighteen feet. If the laud is level, run tho rows in a straight lino, but il broken, wo would recommend the rows to run upon a level. Wo have adopted tho following plan for the last year or two, and are much pleas ed with it: Ditch your lull-sides, giv ing a fall of about three inches to tvvelvo feet. Instead of throwing the , dirt on tho ditch, throw it above. Let the ditch be largo—at least a foot wide ! ami a foot deep. When you break tho land in the spring or winter, uso a hill-side turn-plow, and always turn tho soil down tfie hill. 11 the laud is broken thoroughly early in tho year, and the ditches kept well cleaned out, you will find your larm beautifully terraced iu two or throe years. Wo ditc l our luui in this maun -r, and plant lruit trees on tlit! embankment, i’ho trees aro loss in the way hero than elsewhere, and as tho land be comes worn, tho trees are in the prop er place to get tho most nourishment. Alter a few yoars r 'the roots also pre vent the embankment from washing away. We know of a twenty acre field, ditched in this manner some throe or four years since, that is now 1 a series of boautiiul terraces. This field was considerably broken, but is now almost as level as a floor. Trees are planted in tho lower edge of the terrace, as recommended above. Should the embankments be disposed! to wash badly, slant the embankment i to about lbrty-five degrees aud sod, or allow it to grow up in grass. I»t the fruit trees btaud iu from the sod some two feet. Small fruit can also bo planted profitably on tho embank ment, especially strawberries and rasp berries. They grow well here; al ways have a deep soil, with moisture generally, and at the same timo not subject to injury from excessive wet, | as the terrace acts as an underdrainer, j Grape vines do exceedingly well,! planted on the lower edge of these terraces. a a t ivab. General Ryan has just returned from Cuba, end brings fresh news lrom tlio war. Tho New York ISun has interviewed him Ryan comes from the Cuban President on an im portant secret mission. tile reports tho campaign just closed a very severe one. Do Rodas, the Spanish commander, has had 40,000 regulars, 90,000 volunteers, all armed The Cubans have had but 10,000 armed, but could put 100,000 men in the field if they had arms. Arms are the great want of the Republic Ryan has been in thirty-three en gagements in the last few months.— lie represents hard fighting. So that tlio dearth of news from that quarter has not been from dearth of facts to toll. The Cubans still holds one-half of tho richest part of tho Island. The Republican government is working smoothly. The people favor the Re public, and are ready to fleck to the light whenever arms are supplied them. The Spaniards have destroyed all the houses. Scarcely a reef is to bo seen outside el the cities. The Spaniards have perpetrated the most appalling atrocities, outraging women aud torturing and disfiguring men. Ryan has been commander of the Caiuaguay District, and states that lie has retaliated in the same barbarous manner and thus stopped the barbari ties in his bai.iewick. Ryau says the Cubans are as hope ful and re. olute as ever. De Rodas he alleges to have been removed from the command of the volunteers, and Car leva has been appointed Goveuor- General. A lottou from “tho Springs” says ; ‘L have observed since here many of tho noted personages of the south, including Davis atul Toombs, and everywhere the best feeling, not only tiruong them-e.ves, but toward the -Northern visitors. and mention i’oombs because in particular he seems to realize tiro situation, and heartily to make the best of it What ever he has been, he is thoroughly tlie man of the present, aud mixes up, laughsand tolis the bast stories, even though an old associate may come in for an occasional hit. lit K a .
