A PLEASANT VISIT.
Gn Sunday the Bth inst, the
Writer, wife and baby, went out to
the pleasant heme of Mr. J CL
Echols to spend the day. We
found the ent ire family at home
and received aheartywelcome.After
an hour or two epent In pleasant
conversation, dinner was announc
ed, to it we did full justice. It was
a most excellent dinner and we
enjoyed it. After dinner we walk
ed over the farm with Mr. Echols
While lie does not go ifi foa much
cotton, he is great oh corn and
pens, and we doubt if there is a
better crop of upland corn in the
county. Mr. Echols does not
c|im the credit for this, as his
son Seaborn, who is hardly in his
teens, has done most of the plow
m\ since hia fathers eyes hare
hkve been injured,
Mr. and Mrs Echols hav# an
interesting family, and it is a gen
uine pleasure to visit them.

to ten acres? F. N , Ltoinorest, <ia.
. Answer —This question, apparently
bo simple, involves the consideration of
so many conditions that we would not
' undertake to answer i? unless we had
had mbre experience than is just now
usual at the south. This question of
irrigation requires not only to be stud
ied carefully, but to be practically de
veloped, before one can discuss it intel
ligently. In the first place, the amount
Pf water required bj* ouif ordinary
! crops, that is the amount which must
—viceu up by their roots, the only
way In which the plants can appro
priate it to properly nourish thorn from
the time the seds sprout until the
crops are matured, is equal to a depth
Of 1 foot over the entire soil covered by
each orop. This is the average require
ment, on a medium soil, well cultivated.
If tho crop is very highly manured, a
still greater amount is needed. By ref
erence to No. 82 in the present number,
1 you will observe that there are many
| important points to be considered, be
sides tho mere collecting of the neces
sary amount of water. We are just in
the A B G’s of the the science of irriga
tion, which belongs to the highest de
velopment of agriculture, and can only
be successfully operated on the most
valuable lauds and under the direction
of the most skillful management. One
thing is oar tain, however that if wo
would keep up with the progress of the
Age, we must learn to utilize our au
nual rainfall, more than ample for the
needs of our crops, but most abundant
At tho seasou that they need it least.
By collecting oven a part of this
amount, and keeping it ready for use
iu casa cf emergency, we become prac
tically iudepeudeuc of tho seasons, aud
•re secured against the unfortunate
effects of drouth. But, to do this eco
nomically and successfully, requires
i technical knowledge aud skill, aud
mtist depend on a more certain founda
tion thau a tew directions from an ag
ricultural journal.
