It may be that ther# are some clay sol # that are too hard to allow of being plowed until a saturating rain fall*, but mo*t of the land no doubt will allow of It. An exrra plowing or two of the land that will he seeded to grain, whether rye, oats, barley or wheat, will piobably odd several buahels to the yle and next spring Just one plowing Is very poor preparation for wheat especially. \Vry deep plowing i* not deslraM# for f ill sown grain but It |* Important that the surface otl to the depth of four or six inches should l- well pulverised On# of the most valuable Implements on the farm, and he Southern farm es pecially.

Any Intelligent farmer who has ever used the roller will indorse the statement that It is the only Implement of culture that can In any way mitigate th# evil effects of drought at planting time.

It M not diffi- cult to establish a "patch” of this early and onurpas***t vegetable. *ome l*lnfa on Syrup Making. The first, and per ha p* most import ant consideration, la that of when to cut th# cane, and on this point there la a very wid#-spread error in practice, say* 11. E. Stot'khrWlge in the Florida Agriculturist. I |s a fact that th# cane doe* not be gin to grow sweet until th# season be gins to wane, so that th# old adage that "cold weather mak#* sugar,” l* well founded Th#se fa#ts being accepted, th# natural sequence is that the longer the season of growth, or the liwer the cutting of th# cane Is deferred, the sweeter it will be. and coneequently the greater th# amount of syrup obtainable. My sugges tion. therefore. Is to allow the cane to remain growing as long a# possible; in deed. until danger of frost has become imminent, and then th# cane should ie cut and laid in wind row# so that th# stalk* ar# covered and protected by th* foliage. In this way the cane may re main without Injury, though attacked by quite severe Croat, and the grinding m.y take place at leisure. Irrespective oi weather. laist year ore ground no can# on ih# station farm until January 9 and bv following the practice mentioned, se cured nearly a month of additional growth for our crop over the average of our lo cality. ami Increased the nverage sugar content by nearly four per cent. Ihe first step in syrup making 1s th# rlorlfit ailon of the Juice, and probably U P© ( l' r Puccess of thl* part of the pro cess the final result depend* to a greater degree than upon any other factor. There can no longer lx- any doubt as to th# en tire efficiency of the method of clarifica tion hy the use of Spanish mos*. hut in quiries are constantly made .is lo the best method of using the more. The action of the moss depends upon the fact that It Is the most perfect strainer thus far sug gested for this pnrpos# and as much takas the place of the gunny-sa k s> commonly used and of all other method* which have been suggested for purifying the Ju;c •, * It comes from the mill. It not only thoroughly strain* coloring matter nnd in purltles from the Juice, hut at the same tim* remove* the germs of fermentation to such an extent that syrup made ir *n Juice thus treated may be kept indeflnlt* !v, without danger of fermenting or souring. The moa# to be used should b# In the crime condition a* that commonly uses) for mai tress purposes It should he black or gin ned moss from which th# gray lark ra# been removed by exposure to the weather and from which all foreign material ra* been picked The greater th# amount of moss through which the Juice can be made fo pass the more effective will be Its work Thl*. however, will be chiefly controlled by the amount of fall available between th# mill and the evaporator, or If kettles are used, by the dt-tanc# be tween th# nutlet from th# mill ami the ground. The simplest and best mean* '.a the use of a box or filter about on# fool square, or In dlamter. and as long as the distance lietw#en the outlet from the mill ami th# ground will p-rmlt Commonly this will not be 4#*s than four fee*. This box or cylinder should have an outlet at the bottom protected by a piece of wire gauge inside and from which th# Juice, after having passed through the mass, may be drawn off into the kettle* or al lowed to conatantly run Into the evapora tor. This filter should b# filled with h# moss packed In as densely as posulble th# more the better—and sufficient moss should be provided for filling ih# fll.er twice. The quantity uaed tlx* first Wty should be tak*n out and washed and al lowed to sun for a day during which ilm* th# filter should be filled with the act on I quantity and thus, by alternating m ss sufficient for twice filling the reeeptlcle will suffice for an entire grinding season for at bast two acres of cane. Next to the clarification of the yul-'e the evaporation ts most Important. The merns or form of appliance us-d nss compara tively little Influence upon ffMttt/ Of pro duct Just as good syrup can be made tn the open kettle as 1* produced hy uny evaporator. The advantage of the latter, however, ts In ease and rapidity of opera tion and the diminishing of danger to the product through carelessness For s-cur- Ing the highest grade of product I te lleve I hot tt t* absolutely tndlsnensllde that the receptacle In which the skim ming 1* performed and that tn which the syrup Is finished shall be separate, nnd that the connection between the two shall be absolutely under control If ketil** are used the skimming and -he -hushing staruld lake place of different kettle*. If nn evaporator Is used a separate |siu should be provided for bringing t’le juice to the boiling point and removing the skum Expensive patent appliance* ure tn no way essential. The flrst boiling nnd skimming may take place In a cheap galvanised -Iron tank, which can be made by anyone who con use a soldering Iron Thl* separation of the fresh juice from the finished syrup prevents the possibility of contamination or discoloration nnd assure* a higher grade of product. Hteam evaporation I* In every way de sirable. s>mply because of It* economy, convenience and the absolute control l affords, whereby Injury from scorching I* a physical Impossibility. A cheap holler may easily he used for steam evaporation, even though the grinding be performed hy horse power The evaporator may be eas ily made of galvanised iron with common steam pipes laid In the bottom. The degree of boiling or thickness of syrup made I* not so Importan: ns la the uniformity of thickness. By taking a sample of satisfactory thickness n standard, a guoge may he easily made whereby the entire product of the season may be absolutely of the same density. This 1* accomplished by simply taking a bottle full of the hot syrup of satisfac tory thickness, and tn It drop a ilght suck about the slxe of a lead pencil nnd one foor long, weighted at one erst with a bit of lend. By marking point* to Which thl* stick sinks In the sample syrup an 1 then belling of future runs until the St .'k sink* to the ssme mark, the den sity of all I* absolutely uniform with scientific accuracyk, Bvrup thus made is capable of receiving the highest market price. The method of m.rketlng. how. ever, will largely control the price se cured. Best result* and prices can only be obtained when syrup I* put up In small packages, preferably In one gallon tin can*, square cans hedng preferabl*. Byrvp made by th* method described nod place t on the market In this way can be sold at any time for Sft cents or batter, and has sold dur'n* the past year as high as II 30 per gallon, while the average product of the. country found difficult market at 15 cent* to 17 cents per gallon The difference of price ts certainly sum clent to Justify carsful consideration of toe simple suggestions offered.

This Idea has been transmitted from father to son so long that It has becom* fixed 8° we *e# that In *om# of the oldest arrl cultural countries tlx* land Is still fertile, thougn It has been cropped for a thous and years. It Is in f**w countries that we find the m#thud of hand.ing land that Is callsd soil robbing It Is easy to #e# how th# system ha* grown up. The first settler th.it com# to thl* country found great area# of land lying practically to waste Most of the land IKd never been turned, even by the sharp atlrk of an Indian Thf ir a r Inhabitant wo* so gr%at tb*t it pr*duc#d enough game and wild roots and berries to sustain Its population without work. When th# whit# rnan came with hi* plow and Intensive methods, he found i rich land rvady to his band Ha turntd out hlw cattle and other et>V into u pasture so larg# that It sustained without •ff.ai th# animal# on It. without need of other feed, except when the snow' covered th# ground. He turned up the virgin soil and It gave him several g*'t harvests There was no need to manur# it. for It was Impossible for him to liil all th# ground on# season or even In many #••*- sons. When the crops Is gnn to grow less on one piece of ground, h# very naturally and wisely took oom# of Th# unused land near It and cultivated that, while the first grew up to pasture land or ia> Idl# ex posed to the operations of the element*. In those days this system was th# only on# that cou Id be profitably follow* 1 l.*nfortuna*ely th# practice became tin 1. nnd whs transmitted from father to son. till II ha* reached us in these da>* 801 l robbing Is no io<.g#r wise nor is It profitable. Th# land per Inhabitant is too limited. e*pe tally In th# more valu able parts of our agricultural domain. lamd that was worth nothing P#r acre Is now worth f~O to Jlu p#r acr#. The owner cannot afford to hav# It lie id c or grow up to thistles ami other weed*, to later on serve ns pasture when the gra -* * have driven out th# weeds. Th* farmer that ho!d to the old system must grow less and less prosperous, till h# Is sup planted by the farmer that will tak# care of his land und see that It Is not robbed Ther# Is almost h (#• ling that th# Im poverishing of the soil Is a necessity; that the out-go of the land's fertility must t># always more than Its income. Buch is not the fact. If that wt re true China would long aince hav# tiecome a land so poor In fertility that It cou.d not sus tain th# half of Its present f>opulafton.

('are of Grapevines—The first fall offer planting, cut th* vines back to the ground again, leaving but a spur of three or four buds above ground, says Garden. Let two canes grow the second season. They ought now to make a groweh of from live to eight feet; If so. cut one of them back to three buds In the fall following, and tho other to within three or four feet, to hear, tthould they have made a larger growth more may be left; If less, bur It ll lo If any For If the vine Is not strong enough to force a good growth of wood. It is too weak to beer fruit. A* the vine* grow older amt stronger, from three to tlve canes may be left to bear (always pre ferring those tha* start within a fool of the root), and these trained out In fan shape On stake* or trellle*.

Is a fair average yield. However, six or eight tons per acre are sometimes produced and single vines have been known to yield bushels of fruit.
