Agricultural and Horticultual
Hints.
Enuiciiino Soils. — In one of our
hints last week, we undertook to
show how it would be better, il a
small fanner cultivates fifteen acres in
cotton and corn, to put two or three
acres each in those crops, and stated
that the next week we would show
what to do with the balance. Bear
in mind that we Were speaking of
the cultivation of poor land. We
said that by concentrating all the
manure the farmer might have on
five or six acres instead of using it
on fifteen, those five or six acres
would yield him more corn and cot
ton than the whole fifteen. The cor
rectness of these views has been
made manifest by repeated experi
ments in Georgia. Some made three
or four bags of cotton ou a single
acre, and one experiment, that of
Mr. Warthen's of Washington conn-
tv, showed that five bales could be
made on a single acre.
The great object of a farmer is to make
his land rich, and the great question
is, how can it be done in t’ e speedi.
est arid most economical way. We
have no doubt the use of good gu
anoes will afford the speediest means
qi enriching land, but they may be
beyond the reach of a poor man who
cultivates poor land. We are speak
ing now of plants to permanently en
rich poor land. When we say that
the gua..oes will enrich it more
speedily than anything else, we do
not mean that their use, in making
a crop will do it, for the crop itself
may take from the land all the ele
ments of fertility they contain and
leave it as poor as it was. But to
continue our illustration as to the fif
teen acre crop. But all the manure
jf the farm, barnyard, stable, hogpen,
shedpfold, compost heaps, &c., on
five or six acres. Then if the far
mer can obtain some guano let lnm
put 150 or 200 pounds to the acre,
on three acres, and sow it down in
c-vwpeas, called the “clover of the
South.” In this case the object to
be effected by the use of the guano i
to give a greater growth to the pea
vines. When the vines are in bloom
turn them into :he soil and that sing
le process will add sufficient fertility
to the soil to double the crop of corn
the fallowing year, but it would be
beet to fesow the land with peas at
the tint*', they are plowed in and thus
two green pea crops may be incor
porated into the land the same year
by sowing the first time from the
20th of May. If guano cannot be
obtained sow down in peas without
iu This disposesof 9of the 15 acres.
Take 3 other acres and manure it
with the plow. Mauy farmers do
not know that thorough pulveriza
tion of the soil manures it. It breaks
up all the clods, opens the land to
the beneficial influences of the atmos
phere and brings to the roots of plants
the greatest possible amount of what-
ever fertility the soil may possess.—
iireak the land deep. Pe3 roots
go to a great depth it the lands is
broken deep. Sow the peas in fur
rows feet apart dropping Bor 10
peas every two feet. In ten or
twelve days after the peas come up
plow close and loosen the middles.—
At the proper time run through them
with the sweep and follow with the
hoe if necessary to rejoove gras3. —
No further work will be necessary.—
Vfheu ripe gather the peas or the
best of them. Huga and cattle may
be tumid upon them for a short
lime - let most of the vines fall and
mt upon the ground. For this crop
sow about the first of June. The
rot*et! vines and roots trill add much
to the fertility of the soil. Sow the
other fear serfs in oats in February
having the ground prepared as above
described Turn horse, cattle and
hogs upon them a few days, and sow
down in oowpeas to be turned under
when in bloom. As the land im
proves be careful tc> add more fertility
tothe soil th*n is takeu from it and
in a few year? ’* will be made rich.—

A writer w ell acquainted with rale
mg and managing stock sars: “Toi
maintain a herd of cows successfully
it is well to have one-sixth of them
qwo years old, one-sitth three, and
the same number of lie a_ges of four. !
Jive, six ami seven • ear?
Hoils.
The one great and absorbing ques
tion with a farmer shou and be how to
make his land rich. If it is poor, to
work it will keep him poor. If he
works poor land and is in debt the
oppression of that debt will not leave
him. Ilis mind quails under the
pressure, energy often faints, delica
cy is sometimes outraged, fortitude
fails, temper is fretted to madness,
patience exhausted, independence
shaken to its foundation, mus'c loses
itf charms, laughter and festivity are
hateful, the banquet tempts to eat
fur life, not for enjoyment, memory
ceases to dwell with pleasure upon
happy scenes of the past, and the
mind, restless, excited and distracted,
Shrinks with weariness and dread at
the gloomy prospect which overshad
ows it. Is the picture overdrawn?
not in reference to a man of delicate
sensibility. Is there a remedy ? Yes.
your poor land is a gold mine. You
look at your stinted corn and cotton
and wonder how any man in bis sens
es can call it a gold mine. We’ll try
and tell how it is. Has the owner a
gardeu spot ? Make it rich with ma-
nures, all of it, half of it, a quarter of
it. Economy is essential. This gar
den spot will furnish the table, pro
fusely, with peas, Irish pota'oes, snap
beans, onions, cabbages, okra, toma
toes, corn and everything else in the
vegetable line for eight months iu
the year and with a moderate variety
of some, for the other four months.
If you use a single lorse don’t break
him down and yourself too in work
ing fifteen acres of poor land in corn
and cotton to make 5 bushels of corn
and 300 pounds of co ton to the acre.
Eight acivs in corn would yield 40 j
bushels, and 7 in cotton. 2100 pounds
in toe seed. This would be almost ■
a dead failure. The tittle manure,!
such a man has scattered over the fit- i
teen broadcast, or in hill, wouldn’t j
be worth a cent. It would lose i's
fertilizing proprities while taking up
the time to plant, or the effect upon
the plants, would soon he exhausted,
leaving them to perish, or fail in
great part, for want of more susten
ance. Put ii all on two acres of cotn
two acres in cotton and they will]
make the 40 bushels of corn, and the
2100 pounds of cotton. What else ?
We will tell what else to do next
week. Our space is taken up for
this. J.

In Texas camels are raised as easi
ly as horses and cattle. The colts
for the first three or four days are
rather tender and require close atten
tion, but afterward they are hardy
enough. They feed on cactus and
brush, refusing all grasses.
It is often observed that shortleg
ged, firm, compact horses do their
work better and last longer than
larger ones, particularly if they have
a clean, flat bone and plenty of mus
cle. Cart horses of great weight and
height generally have round bones.

Quitman Banner : Dr. Dittle, Geolo
gist for Georgia, gives it as his opin
ion that he could within one month
locate one hundred mines in Georgia,
at which, if one hundred stamps to
each mine were put to work, the
profits would be half a million per
month. We believe the doctor comes
as near knowing what he is
talking about as any official iu the
State, and he should be encouraged
not only by sufficient appropriations
by the State to enable him to carry
his investigations to completion, but
by every citizen who may make any
discovery of minerals, or deposits of
value. Only think of it—the mining
resources of Georgia, if operated to
their fullest capacity, would give em
ployment to nearly all the idle popu
lation of the United States, necessi
tating the building not only of new
railroads, but in many instances the
laying of double tracks on those al- 1
ready built in the mining districts, to
meet the demands that would be up
on them for transporting the miner
als from, ajpl provisions and other
supplies tothe mines.

HINTS
-TO
GROCERSi
IT IS POOR POLICY
For any retail merchant to sell inferior
goods because be can make
more money on them.
Instead of trying to find the cheapest
that can be bought, he should always
select THE BEST In the market.
We know of no business anywhere, in the
city or country, that would not sooner become
permanently established, and in the long run
pay better, by handling only fair and honest
goods. To bo sure, custom may for a while
be allured by low prices into the purchase
of inferior and adulterated articles; many
eveU take up with short weight and other
swindling; but time rights all these
things, and nothing is more certain than that
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY
MEN 1)0 BUSINESS
TO MAKE MONEY!
The Barest way to accomplish this is to
build up a permanent trade.
TMs can not lie successful) lie
if inferior pis are soli.
It Is only by topping the best articles of their
kinrl, even if tiiey do not pay the largest
immediate profit, that a permanent business
is built up. Keep the host soap, the best
.starch, the beat spices, the best baking powder,
end so on through the wholo lUL We have
known a grocer to iose a customer whoso
trade was worth a hundred and fifty dollars
n year clear profit to him, Just because he
would not supply a baking powder that was
demanded bv the best trade.

It Is a first-class article, wl.l clo all we
claim for it, and never fails
to work WELL.
It is a credit to any merchant’s stock, and is
one of the few good things he can confidently
recommend to every customer. It will sell
itself after one trial, for its great merits are
soon appreciated. And not only so, but one
lady using it will tell others of the wonderful
properties of Sea Foam, and where it can be
purchased, and so the tide of trade will
gradually but surely set toward the enterpris
ing grocer who keeps it in stock. Actually,
the ladies of Georgia where Sea Foam hns
been introduced, are noted for making better
bread, biscuit, corn cakes, and other cookery
than can be found anywhere else, and they
give Sea Foam the credit , and won’t use any
other baking preparation. And it is not to be
wondered at, either , for Sea Foam

More than half the complaints of bad flour
arise from the use of common baking powders,
which not infrequently make the best of flour

better cookery with second quality of flour
