Never plant a pea for home use that
isn’t, wrinkled. The buckshot varie
ties may be had a few hours earlier,
but they are only fit to sell.
In setting out trees let them lean
toward the South. This prevents
sun scalding at first. The tree will
gradually pull itself back upright.

Weeds are Robbers.—All farm
ers should see to their extermination
in field and meadows. One weed left
to go-so seed will cause hundreds or
others to spring up to the great inju
ry of both. ‘ .
Mr. Robt Ramsey of Lincoln county
it is stated has 4 acres of cotton that
will make six heavy hales. A hat s
cropping with success. When the
farmars make a bale to the acre mon
ey troubles will be felt less.
Corn for Planting.-We‘have
noticed long since, that corn suitable
for roasting ears would readily sprout
but was not aware if that the unripe
grains were planted for that pur
pose they would produce ears of
sound ripe corn. On the contrary we
thought they would .soon rot in the
ground.
Strawberry Beds.—The fall is
the time to prepare patches to fruit
well the next season. Plants set out
now, and well worked and manured,
will yield an abundant supply of fruit
next June. It is an easy matter to
have an abundant supply of this de
licious berry. v
Dr. Sturtevant is credited- with
saying that “careful experiments have
show n that unripe tomato seed will
grow' and give a gain of fifteen days
in earliness over ripe seed from the
same plants. Peas and corn fit for
table use will grow and produce ear
lier crops than ripe seed, but plants
from immature seed are more feeble
than those from ripe seed.'*
Cotton and Corn.—In the pro
duction of cotton Texas leads, Missis
sippi being second and Georgia third.
The largest crop ever made in the
State was in 1882, being 942,000 bales
In 1880 the corn crop was 23,200,000
bushels, an average of 9 bushels, per
acre; wheat 3,160,000 bushels an av
erage of 64 bushels per acre; oats 5,-
648.000 bushels, an average of 9 bush
els per acre.
THE VALUE OP GRASS.
It is usually the case that the cow
which gives a moderate quantity of
milk throughout the season, and
nearly up to the time of coming in
again, is more profitable than those
which give a large yield immediately
after calving, but are nearly dry at
the end of six months from that event,
and quite so at the end of eight or
nine months. The staying quality
as valuable in cow-s as in horses.
is
‘Blood will tell” in breeding stock
of anv kind. It goes without saying
Some writer has said that the annu
al value of grass is greater than all
the combined cereals of the world.
When we read the statement, we
deemed it to be an exaggerated error,
but subsequently w r e held our doubts
in check. It is estimated that the
sheep husbandry of the world exceeds
two hundred and sixty millions of
sheep, whose food consists mainly of
grass. There must be added its con
sumption by hundreds of millions of
cattle and horses with no small addi
tion to its consumption by goats, hogs
and the feathered tribe. What a bles
sing to the world is this grass upon
which so much abuse is heaped. There
are perhaps a hundred varieties, some
of which are suited to every climate
and soil of the globe. What would
the world do without them, and how
cheaply are they obtained. A bountiful
nature supplies them everywhere,
and excites the gratitude of men to
the Giver of all good, for this univer
sal blessing. It covers the earth with
verdure, as the trees are clothed with
emerald foliage, but there is no equal
to the fresh green of the grass and
the waving fields of wheat, barley,
rye, oats and corn; all of which at
last are only the higher varieties of
grass. Without the assistance of
man, they are invaluable, but with it,
an immense value is added to them.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are
obtained from the sales of their seeds.
Have you a nice piece of meadow
land on your farm? That is the very
place to grow the orchard grass, the
Hungarian, the red clover and timo
thy hay. If the meadow is a little
too wet, ditch and drain it. It is not
necessary to make it very dry, moist
ure is acquired if not in excess. It may
be well to state that orchard grass is
suitable for meadow's, or upland past
ure. It is characteristic of this grass
that it does well on uplands and low
lands. * The Kentucky blue, the
the meadow fissure, the Italian iye,
the tall oat grass, the Guinea and the
millets, require moist and rich land.
The best time to sow grass seed in
Georgia is from the last of August to
the middle of September. We doubt
whether anything is gained by sow-
ing anj' of these seeds together except
for the purpose of making ornamental
law'ns.
APPLE CULTURE.
Let any farmer compute the sum
which a full annual crop of apples
W'ould produce, even at a low rate
per bushel, and he will be surprised to
find how r much more valuable his ap
ple orchard is than any part of the
farm devoted to grain growing. With
good management and manuring a
full crop of apples may be grown
every year, with as much certainty as
any grain crop, and with less expense.
This statement which we copy from
the Courier Journal, is worthy of se- J
rious consideration. • Properly attend- I
ed to the apples would find home j
markets, and save large sums that are j
usually expended for Northern ap- ;
pies. The Avriter rented, one year j
Mixed Pickles.—Cut into thin
slices half a peck of green tomatoes,
one small, hard head of cabbage, si?
green peppers, one dozen onions, one
large root of horseradish. Put all in
to ajar, sprinkle thoroughly with salt
and let stand for twelve hours, then
press the liquor from the mass, and
add to the pickles black and white
mustard seed, a little ginger root, one
ounce of whole allspice, one table
spoonful of ground mustard; pack in
to a stofig jar, and add one quart of
good cider vinegar. Ready for use in
a week.

Many Western farmers are substi
tuting millet and Hungarian grass for
oats, the latter crop being liable to in
jury from severe drouths, or to fall
down and be of little value on the
black soils. Estimating the hay at a
low price per ton it is more valuable
than an oat crop, and leaves the soil
in better condition for future crops.
By putting the millet in the silo and
feeding for winter milk and butter,
the advantages of this substitution
will be farther increased.
The Farmer’s World says : It is bet
ter not to graze pastures \ r ery closely
at any season of the year. Pastures
when bare are much more likely to suf
fer from either drouth or cold than
when covered with grass tAVO or
three inches deep, and they grow
much more slowly. All plants feed
from the leaf as Avell as the root,
and when cropped too closely the
poAver of draAving nourishment and
attracting moisture from the air is
much lessened. Young turf requires
specially careful grazing, yet it should
be remembered that if allowed to get
ahead of the early summer, it becomes
overgroAvn and coarse, and is rejected
by cattle and sheep. The aftergroAvth
of grass is hindered throughout the
year by the old dry grass remaining
on the land.

COTTON.
“Probably as large a yield of Avlieat
as was ever reported was, says the
Boston American Cultivator. w
bv Jirah Blackman, of WheatlanTl,
N. Y.. in 1843, for AV'liich he was a-
warded a premium by the Monroe
Countv Agricultural Society. On one
measured acre he grew sixty-eight
bushels and forty-three pounds. The
acre was sown with little less than a
bushel of seed, one-half White Flint
and the other Red Chaff, two varie
ties not now grown in this country.”
Thp care of milk is not understood
as Avell as it should be by many farm
er-' families. Milk can not be expos
ed to deleterious influences—such as
ilm bad odors of tliestable, mouldy and
impure milk-room, and many other
things which could be mentioned—
without being contaminated. The
milk must be properly cooled and its
temperature kept regular, either by
natural or artificial means. In fact
the milk is as a rule handled too
carelessly for making the highest
quality of butter.
The Geographical centre of Geor
gia. the centre of colored population
of Georgia and the centre of colored
population of the Uuited States are

The centre of aggregate population
of Georgia and the centre of white
poDulation are both near Forsyth.
Fulton has the largest population
of any county, 48,130, and Charlton
the smallest 2,154. Decatur has the
largest area. 1,160 square miles, and
Glasscock the smallest, 100 square

Cotton.—The national report of
the New Orleans Cotton Exchange
for the cotton belt makes the average
for June, July and August as fol
lows for the months in the order
stated:
Average for last year
same months
For 1884,
Georgia for this year,
Texas is the highest fo
this year,
Arkansas next,
Florida,
North Carolina,
Mississippi,
Louisiana,
Alabama,
Tennessee,
Virginia,
South Carolina,
Texas, Arkansas and Tennessee are
the three highest. The general con
dition of thi’s years crop has improved
and if no unfavorable influences shall
occur the result Avill exceed previous
anticipations.
Many farmers in the cotton regions
( of the South, do not average more
than an eighth of a bale to the acre.
In such cases it takes 7 or 8 acres to
make a bale. It will be seen, at once,
that the expense, in working that
number of acres to make a bale, is a
very heavy loss and the little money
obtained amounts almost to nothing
in supporting his family. It is strange
that any farmer, whose receipts are
so small from groAving cotton, will
continue it on such a scale and at
such a loss, when he could so easily do
better and make his crop remunera
tive. At such a rate of production,
it takes seven or eight acres to make
a bale and the cost of making it is
greater than the profit. It would be
an easy matter to manure a single
acre and make as much or more.
Home farmers Avill adhere to this i wagon
ruinous policy, seeming to derive no
instruction from this losing business.

STOCK.
To improve stock, great care should
be taken to breed from animals of
sound constitution with good physical
developments. Raise only from strong,
healthy and Avell formed parents.
But little attention has heretofore
been paid to this. But many are noAv
alive to the importance of fine stock
raising and personal pride, to say
nothing of profit, will secure atten
tion to this very important matter.
The Carp.—The opinion is general
that the German carp is the most cer
tain and best fish tor farmers. They
grow rapidly, and it is said, will live
in ponds so warm in summer that a
large' portion of other fish will die.
Writers on the carp say that they will
burrow in mud in the winter, but
during that time they make but little
growth. Some say a pond of foui*
square rods will supply a family with
fish. The females spaAvns in May and
June. We noticed, some time since,
that a writer on the carp asserted that
one had been known to lay half a mil
lion of eggs. It is certainly a great
fish and is very tasteful though not
equal to trout.
Rye.—We notice a statement re
cently, that more land is sown with
rye, in Great Britain, for green crops,
than for grain crops. In that coun
try, it is sown in autumn at the rate
of 2 or 3 bushels to an acre. This is
intended for an early green crop to be
cut and fed to stock. England is cele
brated for its fine cattle of all kinds,
and its roast beef and fine mutton.
Great care is taken there in the small
er crops of rye to have the seed full
and heavy.
People living in the neighborhood
of neAv Chinatown witnessed a novel
sight yesterday, when a Chinaman
went galloping along the streets on
the back of a monster bear, which
Avas going at a pretty lively rate. Old
Bruin Avas bridled and saddled in reg
ular fashion, and his slant-eyed rider
Avore a heaA’y pair of spurs. The rid
er and his steed halted in the main
street of the Chinese quarters, and
the bear Avas led through one of the
stores back into a little shed. Learn
ing of the curious riding animal, a
Chronicle representative went to neAv
Chinatown to see it and the rider.
The bear Avas found to be of the black
species, and Avas a regular J umbo in
size, standing nearly as high as a cow.
In conversation with the owner, it
was learned that he had captured his
bear when it Avas a small cub: that lie
carried it to his cabin, cared for it
tenderly, and when it grew large
enough he trained it to draw a small
and to perform numerous
tricks. The bear has always been
well treated, and runs about as it
pleases; but always returns to its mas
ter when called t just as an intelligent
dog would. When the bear became
strong, the Chinaman began riding
him, and sever had any trouble. He
now rides him whenever he goes
hunting and fishing, and finds the
brute a better companion than a dog,
for lie will go into Avater and bring
out game, or carry to his owner ducks
or quails he had killed. The China
man lives near the Ten-mile House,
on the Humboldt road, and yesterday
was his first trip to Chico Avith his
trick bear.—Chico (Cal.) Chronicle.

Miraculous Sscape.
W. W. Reed, druggist, of Winches
ter, Ind., writes: “One of my custo
mers, Mrs. Louisa Pike, Bartonia,
Randolph Co., Ind., was long a suf
ferer with Consumption, and was
given up to die by her physicians.
She heard of Dr. King’s New Discov
ery for Consumption, and begun buy
ing it of me. In six months’ time she
walked to this city, a distance of six
miles, and is now so much improved
she has quit using) it. She feels she
owes her life to it. Free Trial Bottles

Henry Grady, in the Atlanta Con
stitution, says: “Let me tell you a-
boiit the easiest half million a good
man ever earned. About twelve
years ago Major Campbell Wallace,
of this city, invested £6,000 cash in the
stock of the Elyton Land Company.
The total capital was £100,000 cash—
which was increased to £200,000 in
stock. The company bought 4,000
acres of land, the site of the present
city of Birmingham. Permission w as
soon granted the company to issue
$100,000 in bonds for improving the
property. The bonds were sold, but
almost immediately re-bouglit by the
company and ietired. The proceeds
of laud sales were largely put into
improvements.
Maj. Wallace has drawn over $100,-
000 in cash dividends on his £6,000 in
vestment. He has drawn $17,000, or
three times his Investment, in divi
dends this year, with four months to
hear from. * Besides paying such div
idends the company has over $2,000,000
in cash assets, exclusive of its land,
which has hardly been touched. The
shares are now $4,000 each. Major
Wallace received for his $6,000 cash
112,000 in stock, or 120 shares, worth
now in open market $4,000 a share, or
$480,000. He has distributed most of
his stock among his children, and
Mrs. Mynatt has just received and re
fused an offer of $90,000 for her share.
This reads like a fairy tale. An in
vestment of $6,000 paying over $100,-
000 in dividends in 12 years and then
being worth $480,000 cash! The Ely
ton company on a paid in capital of
$100,000, has paid over $1,500,000 in
dividends, has $2,000,000 in assets, be
sides its lands, and its stock is now
worth $8,000,000. This stock was
hawked about Atlanta a few years
ago at 18 cents on the dollar.

Wool Carding.
AM prepared to do Wool-Carding
at my place, at Scottsboro. Wool
sent to my address at Milledgeville,
Ga., will be promptly carded and re
turned. All persons shipping wool to
me should, also, mark plainly their^
own name and address on the packa;
so that no mistake can be made in
turning carded wool.
