TALBOTTON, TALBOT COUNTY, GA., TUESDAY, AUGUST 1881.
Cultivating Peach Orcnards.
The peach tree is more sensitive
to neglect and retarded in growth
bv grass, as well as stimulated by
good cultivation than any other of
onr common fruit trees. Wo have
never seen a successful orchard in
grass, uulcss subjected to constant
and heavy manuring. We observe
"a recent statement by C Eagle, of
Paw Paw. Michigan that he lias an
orchard eighteen years old bearing
abundant crops of excellent peach
es through the influence ot cultiva
tion. He plows it early every
spring to a depth of llvo or six
inches. In two weeks lie passes a
heavy harrow both ways. After
wards a two-liorse cultivator, sot to
run four inches deep, is passed
over the ground from threo to five
times. This ends the season's cub
tivation, Mr Engle thinks there
are moro peaches of the host cpiali
tv borne on these trees than any
equal number elsewhere in the
State. In allusion to the recom
mended pract.ce of sowing buck
wheat in peach orchards, instead of
keeping them cloan and mellow,
Mr Engle says he would ns soon
think of sowing buckwheat among
his corn to insure a heavier crop.
The truth is, while every farmer
knows that clean culture is abso
lutely essential to success in his
common farm crops, many fail to
apply the same knowledge to their
more expensive orchards. —Country

If Georgia farmers would be
wise and prepare in timo for the
future, they will arrange at onco to
save all the hay—grass and pea
vines—that they can for their
stock next winter and spring. Not
only this, but they should set apart
and thoroughly prepare and fertilize
at least three times their usual acre
age of oats and othor small grain.
Com and wheat next year will he
high in the west, in all probability
higher than they have been this
year, because tho crops there are
represented ns being over 150,000,-
000 bushels short of last year's
yield. The result will bo higher
prices of coins’. The grain crops
in Georgia are a full avoiage this
year, and with a good supply of
bay saved this full and a full crop
of oats for next summer,our friends
will bo able to get through next
year without drawing much on the
west for corn. There is always
hope for a people who make their
own food at home. Tho late rains
in this section have been fine for
the growth of the hay making
grasses and we hone it will all be
saved.
We learn from the Columbus
Times that Mr Baggett, a tenant
on the plantation of Mr O C Lowe,
of Green Hill, Stewart county, had
been plowing last Monday, "and
when his day's work waß ended he
got upon his mnlo to ride home,but
neglected to unite the hamestriDg
of the gear. The mule became
frightened at something and threw
him, and his feet were entangled
in the gear as he fell. The mule
ran about two miles with the unfor
tunate man dangling by his side,
and when found he was still hang -
ing to the mule and life was extinct,
i His body was terribly biuised, and
the sight presented was distressing
to behold.

that the stone now uncovered was the

The Lumpkin Independent
