In previous issue we made a note of the
successful cult me of ceFer.v in I'lorida by
a number of intelligent truckers. In one
case we ere told that th? grower had re
fused SS.fM for tie growing crop on five
acres. The results prove that is a
gt at demand for ce’ ry as a summer veg
etable. Only a few yram ago it was diffi
cult If not Impossible to secure celery af
ter March or April. Northern grown cel- j
ery is fnit upon th* market in the fall
of the year and the trade is usually at
its height in November and December.
Celery can not be grown at the North j
to mature in May and June as is the case j
in Florida and Southern Georgia. In the
South the spring or early summer crop
of celery is very easily made and espec- j
hilly* so where one has soil just, suited
to D: moist, rich soil, such as our ham
mocks afford.
Now that Southern ‘truckers have found
that then D a demand for celery in May
and June they have sot out to supply it.
Perhaps the only reason why this vege
table has been regarded as a win/ter vege
table i* that there lias been no supply
of it in the spring and summer, for af
ter fhe Northern crop be ame exhausted
iri the late winter there was none to be
had. And there may b one other rea
son is Diat vegetables are scarce in the
winter, and particularly solid plants.
Since we hßve been growing celery in
MldJl* Georgia, as a spring crop, which
has been for several y* ars. we find that 1
it is really more to be relished in May 1
than in January.
As with other things it is quite possl- 1
ble that too many may engage in The
growing of this summer ccf.ery and in a
few years competition will become so
great there will not be the splendid profit
in the. crop that there is just now.
■Here in Mlddl ■ Georgia it is quite pos
sible to mature the dwarf varieties cf
celery in May.
The seed is sown in cold frames in
December or January, and the plants set j
out in January, late or in February. The !
growth is very rapid in March and April,
and especially where the crop can he irri
gated. The White Plume variety can ->e
b.anched by May 1-10, ami on up to the ,
of July.
If the* Southern grower could only go on
* ud raise the second or late crop to be ;
blanched in October or November, be
could well afford to make a specialty of
Hi is splendid vegetable. We have found
this late crop a very difficult one fo grow,
but we are making some experiments with
b this season, that we trust will result in
demonstrating that tt can he grown by a
method of mulching and fertilizing which,
though, involving much care mid pains
taking. will nevertheless render the effort
a practical micrass.
I( is no n.-o- whatever to attempt o grow
merchantable celerv on Unlit uplan.l We
have plenty of soil that can he brought
into condition for producing celery In Ihc- ,
course of two or three years, by giving
i< two or three crops of peas, or clover j
or ragweed.
This is a crop that must have a soil ;
abundantly supplied with vegetable mat
ter. Then with a liberal application of
good old com post. It will no: be difficult
to grow excellent crons of celery. The
grower that can Irrigate will have the
advantage over those who cannot, but
provide.) the right kind of soli and all
nee.seary manure and good cultivation
ami celery can still be successfully grown
without other than rain water.
I'l-iiit Trees tloiiu Rouilublea
iSomellme last summer when driving
through Montgomery county, Pennsyl
vania, something new < ame to view' in
Ihe shape of a lot of Kleffer pear trees
planted along ihe roadside fence, pet
hairs some twenty-five tides in all, says
Joseph Meehan in Practical Farmer. I
was led to inquire of the owner of the land
whaL his object was in planting (tie trees
there, and whether he did not think he
would lose much of (he fruit by lis being
taken by passersb.v. To Uiese questions lie
replied cheerily that, in the first plate,
the roadside line was selected as taking
less room from his land, as a large port
of (be limbs would be over Ibe road: sec
ondly. tha* there were blit few toys In
tint neightorb.xsl, nor were there likely
to be for some time. Further titan this
be said the Kleffer was thoroughly unin
teresting 10 the taste even up lo liie very
last moment of their ls-lng on the tree
as • hev require to be ripened after being
gathered; anti still another reason for the
planting was Htat. even If passersby
did lake some or the fruit, he could In a
measure afford it. as Ihe half of ihe tree
; would he overlapping the public road, thus
saving him that much kind. There is a
j good deal of I ruth In all (Ills, but ll is
| only true because of Ihe pear being Hie
; Kleffer. This particular farmer would
j liardh care, I ant sure, to set along his
| roadside a row of Bartlelt pears, nice
I plums, good eating a pules or other fruit,
j even If 111 Hie country where Imys are but
lew. The question of boys has very much
to do with it. as all men know what ’heir
own Inclinations were, and how haul It
us.-d to Is* to pass a fruit tree of tempt
ing appearance. The KlefTer pear cannot
Is- eaten In mid-summer as many othei
pears can. and inane a hard winter apple
w aild In time become known to boys a
-1 icing useless to molest, and Miesa trees
' could be used where reasons seem to call
j for 'heir planting In such places by the
' roadside. Where near cities Ihe fruit
j grow er is oil Hie tine studying lo ri move
bis ir.es further and further from 'he
, roadside. Wheelmen now ride for miles
! and ntlle-. from Hie eliles, and farms
which w.-re heretofore considered secluded
ale now known to many. It was bin last
summer that an acquaintance of mine,
some 11 fteen ml>s from a city, found a
predatory youth In his straw ..arv pateh
The youth tried the “hall fellow well met''
l.lan on the farmer, seeming lo Imply hv
his manner that it was quite the thing to
jump tile fenee and sample Ihe heir.'S
■ for Information sake.” He found, how
ever. that quite dllTs<rent views were b> 1.1
by the owner of the fruit. A severe lec
ture was read lo him, and though lei go,
be was not so sure that he would not h. ar
more of i l . hut it seems lie did not. part

1 It will be much better and mor. .ondu ive
to ore's peu.c of mind to set fruit trees
out of sight. und pine shade frees
along he roadside, where giving shade Is
the object. And if at the same time the

With wheat it is an important item t

these can readily be supp’iul in a good

ways of applying to scatter broadcast
either in the fall or early in the spring.

With |>otatoes \ve find tha all things
considered, there are few tiling' with
which fertilizers can be used to a liefer
advantage, or at least this has be j n our
experience. We find ii best io apply in
th* 1 hill preparing the >-oil in a good iiith,
then work out he furrows and then
dropping the fertilizer where the seed is
to be planted and stirring at lea?. sligfuly
in with he soil, then planting the -*:u and

where it can readily be reached by th®
feeding roots of the plant as soon ns they
start out. and will help m 'ter ally li

'l'li** Duck.
White ducks “go” in this country. Take
tip any agricultural or poultry journal
and look at the advertising columns, and
one wdi 1 find frequent mention of the
Pekin ducks, soys the Farmers’ \ oico.
Turn to the literature of the subject, and
♦he Pekin is prominent. Visit the large
breeding establishments and it 1? the Pe
kin that is usually found. And the Pekin
is a white duck. But. though one is
tempted to believe from this übiquity that
there are no white ducks except the Pe
kin. such o belief would be erroneous,
for there is? a Crested White duck, u
White Call duck, and then. too. there
is the Aylesbury, which i? the whitest of
white ducks.
The Aylesbury Is so good a market duck
that It deserves to be brought into great
er prominence than it has-been. In Eng
land—and our English brethren know a
thing or two about ducks-—the Aylesbury
Is a prime favorite. It ranks there about
oh the Pekin here. It Is the great
murker duck. It counts its admirers and
breeders by the thousands. In support of
this statement. let me quote the words
of h famous English breeder, Mr. .T. K.
Fowier: “They are reared In enormous
quantities in and around the town* of
Aylesbury, and ir Is noe uncommon to
nee a ton weight of ducklings of six to
eight weeks old sent in one evening to
Ixindon by rail from the town end neigh
boring villages. The trade for them com
mences in February and last? till about
the end of July.” And og3ln: “Upward
of C20.C00 a year is returned :o this imme
diate neighborhood for Aylesbury ducks
alone.” That 1? about SIOO,OOO in our
money. But Ay’eshury Is not the only
in England where the Aylesbury duck
flourishes. for..ae the same breeder sav**.
“(hey may be seen n all parts of Great
Britain, our colonies, and most countries
of the European continent.’’
What has made the Aylesbury *luck so
popular?
First, they are hardy—no breed/ more
no. They live and thrive. A duckling
hatched Is almost synonomous with a
duck reared. Nothing so discourages •
breeder as to have his ducklings dying
off. one b\ one. after he lias succeeded jn
hatching out a goodly number. But no
such fate awaits him if In* has the hardy
Aylesbury. With proper feeding end bar
ring accidents his ducklings live.
Then their great size. The Aylesbury
will make a very heavy duck. Not quite
is big as a goose, but big enough to be
called very large. W<!th. the Rouen the
Aylesbury disputes the supremacy for Die
largest size among the descendants of
the wild Mallard.
But their greatest advantage, and the
element which more then any other has
secured their immense popularity. Is th *ir
earls development to maturity. In this
qualify they acknowledge no sunerior. It
Is doubtful if they have any equal. Tt Is
this which so admirably fits them for
marketing at six and eight weeks of
I age. It is this? which makes them prove
iho profitable, and therefore so popular
I among the English duck rearers.
A duck which i? hardy, large and early
: in maturing, certainly deserves popular
ity. Put sometimes a fowl Is not easily
acclimatized. Tf does well In one place,
but in another it is a failure. But the
I same breeder from w hom we have qudted,
after instancing the fact that the AyF--
i bury ie reared In nearly all parts of the
world, save: “They are certainly the most
easily acclimatized of ai she water fowls,
and thrive where other breeds fail." If
this* i true, a? T believe, not only from :h.
statement quote*!, but from (personal ex
perience. there Is no good reason why
the Aylesbury should not become popular
with us in this country, and dispute Die
ground for supremacy wiili the Pekin at?
market fowl.
Asa fancier's fowl the Aylesbury ought
cosily to heat (he Pekin. Both are white
•In ks. Tiie beauty, and therefore to a
fancier the value, of a white bird ds is
immaculateness. !•? absolute purity from
colt ’ • or Mi. ■ get tlon of ot tei
colors. Tile whiter the plum age the more
desir*i *le tlie apecimen. This is seen in
all the adjudications at poultry exhibi
tions. Now the Pekin has o creamy
tinge to its plumage; the Aylesbury is
free from this creamv tinge. The Ayles
bury, therefore. I? the whiter, and o the
fancier the more beautiful bird. Grant
fha# In other things, size, hardiness, early
maturity and the Ike. th- two breed* are
equal, and therefore one Just hs good as
the other for market; or go further and
declare that ns market birds the IVkins
ure th.* superiors; yet. w'hen It comes
*o the fancier, the purity of the plumage
°f lhe Aylesbury ought, every tim-, to
give it the preference.
Beans.—Among the vegotab’es
whi. h should occupy a prominent place
n lie fa mi garden is the snap bean, both
hunch and pole, says the Southern
Planter R-peated plant ngs of thi- b* an

The cul'ure of beans 1? very simple,

I like to prepare hind, apply the fer
tilizer, nut two furrows on It. and let it
s*and about two weeks before planting,
than plant as soon after a rain as the
land will do to work. Thr top of the
ridge can be knocked off with i board
and tin seed put in with n drill; or the
r’dge oin be opened wlfi n small scooter
and th® „re<i dropped by hand, covering
I about two inches deep. In this w*y you
may he sure of getting h good stand. ' If.
however, there comes n heavy rain after
j planting, and a cruai forma over the seed,
it should h® broken with a hafrow or
rake, else The bean? will be slow to come
up. and an inferior stand will be the re- !
suit. When cultivating, he careful to
plow and hoe your beans only when the
vines are dry; otherwise, they will turn
yellow, and the crop be greatly damaged.
Lima Beans. —Of the lima or butter
beans, the small bush varieties, such a'
Henderson’s Bush Lima, succeed best in
the* Sotiih. There is also the Small Lima
(Sieva), : pole variety, which does nice
ly. i have seen this bean completely
hide a garden fence in Florida and fur
nish a continuous supply of beans all
summer. Lima beans should no# be
planted until the weather fs thoroughly
settled and warm, otherwise the seed is
likely to rot In the ground. Their cul
ture is similar to that of the snap bean, :
with the exception that they require very
much richer land for be?t results, and I j
therefore use doub’e the quantity of fer- |
tiiiz-r for them than I do for the snaps.
I find these beans very profitable for ihe
horn** market, and last year I sold slo>
worth from one-half acre on land that
had grown a crop of strawberries in the
spring before the beans were planted.
\ Weigh to Make Hog# Weigh.
Ho:e Is tic* w\iy T make one-yc-ar-old
hogs weigh 300 pounds, says a farmer in
the Southern Gazette: Sow oats in fall
to winter on. If you can t get (Die oats
in fall or winter, sow in early spring
imp a re in oats with a good season, will
keei twelve or fifteen shoats if in boot
when turned on it will take hard work
for them to k* ci* the oats down. For
twelve or lifce n hogs, one and one-half
a : s sewn down in sorghum, crange or
red-top, is best. A peck of seed to the
acre is plenty. If I have ca’s I let my
hogs on the cane as soon as it is three
or four inches high. They will not bother
Di® cane a* long as the oats are tender.
For five or six months I feed no corn
unless ft turns very dry. The less corn
fed the less they eat the cane. I have
two acr- s in orchard I turn pigs on,
which erallies me to do better than that.
One acre in oats, one and one-half acres
in cane, and my orchard of two acre?,
will keep twenty-five, head of good, big
shoat?. or thrre sows with eight pigs
<arh. Dry soil will not do. neither will
•b ep sand. The cane can be pulled up
too easily in deep sand. If it is seasonable
and the oafie is getting too tall, it would
b? better to cut part of it down It will
s:>on sprout out and take a more vigor
ous growth. Ho sis will delight in mow
ing it down. If they have a chance. Oat
vviil run hog? till July if they can keep
thfm eaten down, though I prefer sor
ghum for summer and let the hogs on
while, young, sax- ten or twelve inches
high, and it should be kept down so as
to keep tender Too many hogs can ruin
it. of course With too few hogs the cane
will get tough. |
Our Southland.
The Cotton Planters’ Journal present?
this rosy prophecy, which we trust is
true:
“Silently and almost* imperceptibly ha?
the era of prosperity come upon our be
loved Southland. For many years
Sou.hern industries lingered in the lop cf
lethargy and longed for seme fostering
father to bring Diem to maturity. Here
and there individual efforts arose, only io
fail for want of help. Eastern ar.d West
ern enterprises had ihe go’ on the South,
and passions and prejudices prevail and
against her. which time and truth had to
remove. Northern and Eastern capitalist.'
had an erroneous conception of Southern
people and Southern ways. Any lou 1-
mouthed, weary worn, sawed off reneg.uD
IKfiitictan could bray in the and
put to flight all her financial feeling? for
the South. The press and the public <f
the East, were alike prejudiced against
anything in Die South. But thanks to the
beneficence of Providence, “the scale? are
falling from Die eyes” of cur fellowmen.
Prejudice has been put to flight by the
light of truth. Factories are springing up
all over the South, and the march of pro
gress has been as substantial, as it ha
been secure. The long list of enterprise?,
existing and being ptomoted in the South,
since Ihe dawn of our new yeir, is both
wonderful and wise.
The progression of progress started in
our Eastern-Southern siates. and is tri
umphantly traveling over the entire .South.
The Virginias, the Carolina.?. ’Georgia and
Alabama are famed as the "Fall River”
of the South in cot ion manufacturing, and
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and Ar
kansas are well up in the pr<x*e?sion. it
can be no longer said that these state?
are *xcluslvel> engaged in agricultural
and merrhrmdietng pursuits, but have add
ed many manufactories to their business
curriculum. Both home arid foreign capi
tal appreciates tire abundant raw materia!
of the South and tire investing immense
sums of money to utilize it.
It is. a? the “Dixie" in Its April number
says: "No prophetic ken is required to
for see that with the incomparable advan
tage? offered by Diis section, their opera
tion will in time be more sue than
such industries anywhere in the world,
and that others will follow them, and
others still. Some born of home- capital,
and some forced here by the operation of
the stern law of seif preservation, till the
Southland impregnably enthroned upon
the God bestowed advantages will rule the
commercial world.’’
This era has certainly set in. and the
rosiest pictures that speculators ever paint
ed, pale into dull drab and duller gray. In
comparison with the sunset-tinted destiny
of th* South now begun.
Tin* < Til it Ipa Tree.
Among all the forest trees suitable for
farm planting l know of none superior
to cata'pa speciosa and white ash. says
a Western writer. Both are easily plant
ed or grown from seed. Both make rapid
growth and the timber is of the best
quality for all farm purposes. They are
clean trees, and have no persistent In
sect enemies. I have hail the cataipu si* 1 -
ciosii grow five feet the first year ftvm
seed, ami with clean culture reach four
teen feet in three years. Tills catulpa has
a large, strong lap root that runs far
down in good soil, and I would advise
planting the seed where th** trees are to
stand, if the soil can be put in good or
der. If the land is rough or brushy 1
would set one-year trees. Another thing
about cHtuipa: H should he planted not
toexc.ed five feet apart each way to make
ii grow straight up. When set singly,
or fur apart, ii almost invariably makes
a scraggy. . rooked tree. Tf set closely It
-hoots straight up, and when they liegln
to crowd they can be i binned out. It
grow? nearly as* fast h? cottonwood,
makes the best of poss and railway Me?,
md one can rest assured that he will not
niiss* Ii by planting catulpa speciosa.
White ash will mak** a nice tree standing
'lngly, while In groves it goes straight
tip rapidly. The* wood is tough and firs
ic- for implements, furniture, wagon
tongues, shafts, etc. All the pruning these
is n**l is when they arc young Sim
ply *tar; h*m up straight until the top
•■•■ ts beyond reach, then they will tak
cure of themselves.

Enrl\ Pasturing. As spring approaches
there is u strong temptation to turn the
ows onto grass at the earlUm possible
moment. This Is not only Injurious to
Die pasture but to the milk flow. The
temptation to turn the cows onto the pas
ture prematurely is generally due fo a
tb-sire to reduce the work of feeding the
cows, and the practice I? excused by the
argument that grass is Die natural feed
of the cows anyhow. Mut when a cow
has been fed with fair liberality during
the winter on hay and grain, while she
will eat abundantly of the grass, so free
ly in fact as to destroy appetite for grain
If it l>* given her, the early gras? is,
nevertheless, very innufritiou* and is no
substitute for the dry food given during
the winter. The suddenness of th**
change from grain to grass, too. when
tbe cows are turned on the pasture early.
also a disturbing element, ami, taken
in connection with the innuuitlous char
acter of the young grass, is quite cer
tain to make the milk flow falLofT. even
when it leads to no more serious dis
turbances. It Is well not to get In too
big a hurry about putting the cows on
pasture, for it will pay better to defer it
until the grass has some substance In
it. and this both for the welfare of the
cow and that of the pasture.—Homestead.
Making Bordeaux Mixture—When prop
erly made, bordeaux mixture is the best
remedy for apple ©cab and the different
fruit blights, rota, rusts and mildews that
is now in use, but if improperly prepared
it may be very unsatisfactory in its re
sults. The formula is e x pounds copper
sulphate or blue vitriol, four pounds stone
or quicklime ami fifty gallons wafer. Put
the copper sulphate in splint basket or
bag und hang it in a cask or tub contain
ing several gallon? of water and it will
dissolve in a few hours. Vui the lime in
another tub and pour on a little hot water,
having plenty more at hand to add a? the
lime slakf© to prevent burning or drying
out. When slaked slowly in this way the
lime wPI be very fine and free from
lumps nml not apt to clog the nozzle in
spraying. Dilute the copper sulphate so
lution to twentv-ftve gallons in one vessel
and the lime mixture to twenty-five gal
lons in another, and pour the two together,
Don’t try to prepare the bordeaux mixture
Iti any other way. It is less work to fill
up the spray tank with water nnd then
acid the lime and the copper mix
tures, but you can’t get good results from
bordeaux mixture prepared in this way.
If you have a large amount of spraying
to do. nlake twenty-four, pound? of lime
at once, w'hich Is enough for six time?,
and dilute to twenty-four gallons. Then
measure out four gallon? of the mixture
for each fifty gallon tankful. In the same
wny, dissolve twenty-four or thirty-six
pounds sulphate of copper in as many
gallons of water anil take six gallons for
each application. Put in one-half pound
purls green to every fifty gallons nnd you
will kill the tent caterpillar, codling moth,
jiotato bugs and other eating insects.—
Farm and Home.
Sorghum for Feed.—Leroy Gardner of
Idlewild farm wants to hear from some
one who ha? raised sorghum for hay.
June 9 of la.-t year we. sowed a few acre?
at the rate of one bushel of seed per acie
with drill. The season seemed to ju?i
suit. Jt grew’ to about five feet, making
the finest of hay. Sept. 13 i cut it with a
mower, let it cure about right days and
hauled it in. I would, however, recom
mend sowing earlier, in this latitude,
about May 20. or soon af er, according to
the season, so the hay will be ready to cut
earlier, giving a better chance to prepare
the ground for the fall crop.
In preparing the ground for sorghum
pulverize it very fine, then sow with drill,
shallow, just sufficient to cover. Sow .o
less than one to one and a half bushels
per acre. When fiow+l thick it m-tke :
finer hay and is more easily handled in
loading and unloading. The horse fork is
the very thing to unload with. For hoy
cut about the time It heads out; if sowed
.hick it will not head out much seed. As
for result I am well pleased and wi 1 in
< rease the acreage. Sorghum make? mor
feed per acre than anv other crop, h Id
its own in a dry season better th in some
crops, doesn’t spoil as clover or most any
other hay if a wet spell follows cutting. If
sorghum Is planted in rows about three
and a half feet apart, hills of about euht
to ten stalks each, aijoiit eighteen incite?
apart, it makes more seed, ond is art ex
cellent feed for hogs and cntDe. Com
mence feeding Just ns soon as it heads out.
Stock will eat seed and &(.* k? up chan.—
Rural World.
Fertilizing the Orchard-Richness of
soil in plant food is just as important
ii ati orchard as elsewhere. Too of.en
the orchard is neglected in this reaped
and no orchard can go on giving profita
ble returns for a long series of years with
out being fed. This must be done by ap
plying manure among the trees, as It is
not possible to rotate. One of the best
manures for fruit trees is the manure
from the horse stables. It is hardly po*u~i
ble to improve upon it for general fertil
izing. Spread it under the trees in liberal
‘loses in winter or early spring. If the
trees are large, cover the entire ground
except a mot around the trunks. Thus
scattered, it encourages to fill the
'Oil completely and add to the strength
of the tree. If the poultry house is In oi
near (he orchard, and the poultry yarded
therein, they will greatly increase the
fertility of the soil by their droppings
and perhaps keep In check the insects
that sometimes play sad havoc with the
crop of fruit. In this section of country
a low shrubby manner of growth is de
sirable. as it shelters the trunk from the
blistering rays of the midsummer sun.
For the same reason a moderately thick
(op should be grown. The vitality of all
fruit trees must be A No. 1 if they are
to be of any value. The extreme ohang>--
uldene?? 04* Die weather renders it a;so
lUtely necessary.
