SOUTHERN FARM AND HOME.
< utton C'tiltiiro by Xortlici-n Mh-lliwtls
While on . recent trip up the country
to attend a meeting of the Stock Breed
ers’ Association of Mississippi, I learned
from a prominent Mississippian that
some men from Kansas had made a de
cided sensation in the locality where
they had settled by their mode of rais
ing corn and cotton! I therefore visited
Major Young, near Columbus, Miss., to
get some points. The plantations of
these Kansasians joins that of this gentle
man. The former are under his control
and that of an associate. With great
liberality, Major Young has leased them
2b acres for a year, free of rent. He
then rented them a number of acres
each, at the usual rent of such land
ed per acre, per annum. There are three
men, father, son and son-in-law. The
father and son-in-law have their wives
with them.
This year the son-in-law, Mr. Evans, not
wishing to over-crop himself, planted 25
acres in corn, 16 acres in cotton, and 5$
acres of oats. The usual plant of a
colored man is 10 acres in cotton and 5
corn, and they do not half till that. He
planted his corn in the latter part of
March. He began to plant cotton April
14th. He was very late, starting disad
vantageously in not having quite the
implements he wanted, and in having a
very late and wet spring. He cultivated
his corn and cotton with walking culti
vators, and left the ground nearly' level.
There was a very severe drouth, and he
made a bad mistake once in cultivating
his corn too deep—cutting off the roots
next the side where he last worked it. I
heard several planters say that, at one
time, his corn was the most beautiful
looking crop they had ever seen ; but the
six weeks’ drouth, and particularly the
fast working, injured it fearfully.
Rv starting so late with his cotton, he
was injured greatly by the boll-worm,
and by the very wet August. He and
his father told me that each expect
ed to make about a thousand dollars
clean money. They figured about ’this
way:
Twelve bales of cotton at S4O per bale,
$480; 1,200 bushels of corn, at 50c per
bushel, SOOO, and 250 bushels of oats at
50c, $125, making a total of $1,205.
Nothing is allowed for poultry, butter,
hogs, etc. The actual result will l>e
about as follows: Nine bales of cotton,
at S4O per bale, $360; 500 bushels of corn,
at 50c per bushel, $250, and 150 bushels
ot oats at 50c, $75, making the total
$735. He had paid sls for all work up
to October sth; but as he has worked
some outside, lie will probably come out
about even, lie says he sees his mistake,
and by another year, under the same con
ditions, could excel this year’s crops.
But as he may not in a life time have
such a long dry spell, and need not start
so late, he will have far better chances.
He is greatly pleased and proposes to have
for next year’s crop 60 acres—3B acres in
cotton and 22 in corn. He says that he
can attend it. He intends to plant in
checks, and expects to raise a bale to an
acre. 1 hope lie may, but it looks too
sanguine. However, one gentleman near
Aberdeen, Miss., has raised from 2to 21
lmlespov ete by planting in checks, dig
ging holes and fertilizing well, and piling
the elay about the base of the stalk so as
to keep down the grass. If Mr. Evans
should raise a bale to the acre lie will get
a good deal of money.
His father-in-law, Mr. Kilmer, had 16
acres of cotton, of corn and 3 of oats,
lie and his young son tilled these. The
father is considerably past hard work.
They paid $8 for work. They will make
about the same crop as the first men
tioned gentleman. I nearly forgot to
say that when their cotton was just
fairly up, they dragged it across the
rows, much to the astonishment of one
planter, who said they would ruin it.
But this harrowing, almost every one
says, was beneficial, as it made the
earth very mellow for the tender roots
of the young cotton. These men plow
with a big plow —1 forget their favorite
—and use riding plows and walking cul
tivators. These are being introduced
into the neighborhood where they live,
and many people are watching them and
propose to imitate them. Indeed, I verily
believe that I seethe unmistakable signs
of a revolution in that cotton culture.
Many people have been to see their work.
They all admire it; say it was never
equaled, and that they intend to imitate
it. Several, years ago, the late Dr. M.
L. Dunlap of the Chicago Weekly Tri
bune, when on a visit here, told me that
he thought level culture of cotton, with
the cultivators in vogue in the prairies
west, would be better than the Southern
style. The work of these Kansas men is
a verification of his judgment.
Finding that they were so well pleased
in every way, I wanted to learn what
they thought of the country and what
aspects most struck them. The old gen
tleman was a rapid and good talker, and
I had to take my notes very roughly,
but here are the most salient contrasts:
He likes the climate and soil better than
any country he has ever seen ; thinks it
a fine country for grass-growing and
raising stock ; thinks it a better corn
country than any other, and the corn is
better in quality; thinks it better for
oats than any state except New York. I
told him that there had been over 100
bushels raised to the acre in Mississippi,
which rather staggered him. He thinks
it delightful for breezes, and not as hot
as in more northern states; likes the
nights in summer ; climate all right; no
insect pests except the boll-worm; no
house-flies here compared to the north ;
hardly any mosquitoes here ; no fleas; no
flies to trouble stock ; no nets needed for
horses; never has seen a fly yet on a cow
when milking her ; thinks he can make
more off 10 acres here than 80 elsewhere ;
had had one chill; all the rest of the
family have been perfectly healthy.
(He had many chills in the northwest.)*
These, in a rough way, give his im
pressions, and are of interest to me par
ticularly, as corroborative of what I have
said about the country as to health, fer
tility of soil, exemption from insects,
etc., in my letters and talks. These men
are delighted with their experience ; with
the climate, soil and people. Seeing
they were so p'easantly impressed with
everything, I told them they had better
go over to Starkville; so they, with the
Messrs. Young, went over, and saw grass
to their heart’s content at the Jersey
stock farm of Col. W. 11. Montgomery;
] and now they add to their other favora
ble impressions, that grass and thorough
bred stock can be raised.
I am looking to see a good many poor
but industrious men come down and fol
low the example of these Kansas emi
grants. I have not before advocated cot
ton-raising, but when it is such a success
as above, let us have down here the bone
and sinew of the north and east, who can
make from S6OO to SI,OOO clear money
for a season’s work.—[Country Gentle

The White t.r.ipcs,
A large number of the native “white,”
or rather light green grapes were ex
hibited at the time of the meeting of
the American Bornological Society at
Rochester, and were examined side by
side, by a number of the prominent fruit
growers. Among these sort were the
Duchess, Brentiss, Lady, Allen’s Hybrid,
Niagara, Rebecca and some others. Sev
eral expressed surprise at the similarity
of flavor possessed by all, or rather at
the equal degree of merit in each, on
tasting side by side. The Duchess ranked
among the best in quality, the Prentiss
attracted much attention on account of
its sweet and delicate flavor, and the Ni
agara for a combination of desirable
qualities, including its large bunch and
showy appearance, and its tine flavor, in
which, however, it was hardly equal to
some of the others. The Pocklington
was very attrictive for its large, showy
bunches, and it was of fair quality.
None of these, however, are quite equal
to the Croton in quality, although all ex
ceed it for strong growth and freedom
from mildew.
The rear might.
An orchard at Union Springs contained
about 600 bearing trees, and a few hun
dred smaller ones; it was from ten to fif
teen years old aud had borne some profit
able crops, when three years ago it was
visited with the blight. The dead limbs
resulting from this disease were sawn off
and drawn out. A two horse wagon with
a common hay rack was used, and it was
well filled ten times in drawing out the
blighted branches. Some of the trees,
probably a twelfth, perished entirely. A
much larger number wore more or less
mutilated. About one-third of the en
tire growth of branches was destroyed.
Before this period, not a vestige of the
blight had appeared, and some kind
friends remarked,“your locality is certain
ly proof against blight, and you need not
fear it.” The uniform answer was, “It
will be sure to come some time.” The
year following its first deadly appearance,
the disease had much diminished; last
year but little appeared ; this year none
at all. The trees are rapidly recovering
their lost branches, and this year they
loaded with excellent fruit.
It may be many years before it makes
another sweep through orchards. Many
remedies have been tried, and with su
perficial observers those which happened
to beappled just before the disease passed
off’, have the credit of being a certain
cure.
“One thing I have found out about
pear treoe,” said an enthusistie horticul
turist to us recently, “is that they are
always thirsty. It would surprise you
to see how much watering a pear tree
will stand.” Well, most trees, plants,
and everything that grows in the soil,
needs water. “Yes, but I know that a
pear tree when it is hearing fruit
demands a great deal of water; I have
grown pears for many years, but never
became so fully satisfied of their actual
need for water as this season. I have
watered some of the trees in my garden
with liquid manure, every day this
summer and fall, and you ought to see
how the fruit increased in size and
quality. Oh, yes, that liquid manure”
or water from the house sewer and the
chamber slopes, tells the story! Pear
trees will never get tired of this, we are
sure.
Room tor t.rnpcvinos.
We have often urged the importance of
allowing space for strong-growing native
vines. We observe an additional proof
of its advantage in an address of Presi
dent Burnet of the Ontario Fruit-Grow
ers’ Association, Canada. He states
that W. Haskins, of Hamilton, attached
a wire from the pole sustaining his vine
to the chimney oi his cottage, and trained
to the wire. Enormous crops of Rogers’
15 were the consequence. The sparse
bearer of the shortened method thus was
made to yield mast profusely when al-

In reply to the inquiry of F. S. C.,
regarding gypsum or " land plas
ter as a fertilizer for strawberries, my ex
perience has been that it is a detriment.
I have known of fine beds of garden
strawberries being blasted by the use of
plaster in the carden. It is used about
here on fields where parties wish to run out
the fields or wild strawberries with suc

POI’I.TRY.
To Keep Fouls Faying.'
In order to keep your fowls laying in
winter it is necessary to give them plenty
of food, fresh water and good warm quar
ters in which to roost, and they will pay
for this trouble. If not attended to
right, you will get but few eggs in cold
weather.
Clean II rood in a.
Some years since during the extreme
furore of poultry keeping a breeder was
thought to be hardly wo. th notice who
kept but one breed. The prevailing sen
timent among fanciers then was that
each one must keep at least half a dozen
breeds and the ability of standing as a
breeder depended upon the number of
varieties he kept and advertised. Be
ginners were slow to appreciate the cau
tions given by more exj>erienced men,
and would not be with less than
three, five, eight or a dozen breeds.
These ambitious fellows always came to
grief; they undertook mo-e than they
could accomplish, but they would not
learn the lesson in no other school but
that of experience.
For the beginner one breed is enough.
Let him take the one he thinks will last
suit his purpose, give it good treatment,
and if he is dissatisfied with the results
he can take another, but only one breed
at a time. This advice costs notllifig
and if heeded may save much heedless
trouble and loss. —[Southern Poultry

They eat more meals per diem in
England than in America. There is
breakfast, lunch at 1, dinner at 5 or 6 p.
m., and supper at half-past 9or 10. In
some families there is a light tea between
3 and 4in the afternooh. The first time
I saw a late supper, consisting of a
“joint,” vegetables and beer, I was un
easy, thinking it all extra trouble on my
account. Fortunately I delayed all re
marks to that effect, and in due time
discovered it to be the custom. Between
10 and 12 at night in London you may
see hundreds of children, plate in one
hand and pitcher in the other, scudding
about the streets. They are after the
family’s late supper of hot fried fish,
fried potatoes and beer. The fish and
potatoes are bought frying hot at public
Kitchens. Two pence will buy of these
a hearty meal for one, a penny, or three
ha’pence more for beer fills the bill.
The “ ham and beef ” shops sell as low
as five cents worth of cooked meats,
toast or boiled, and from a cent’s worth
of vegetables upward. Very good meat
they have, too, and very nicely they
cook it. These public kitchens .h Lon
don, and there are thousands of them,
supply the poor with a dozen staple arti
cles of cooked food much cheaper than
they can buy or cook it at home. Give
a London beggar a penny, and he can
buy a bowl of good soup and a good-sized
Jtiece of bread—enough, on a pinch, to
ast him a day. Give a New York beg
gar two cents, and what can he buy ?
Yet our is a land of plenty. Every
American at first deems the late English
supper the sure road to dyspepsia. Yet
there is far less dyspepsia in England
than in America, and the late supper is
universal. I adopted late suppers and I
gained fiesh, and have imported the
practice and kept it up ever since. I
think there is as much harm going to
bed starved as going with a full stomach.
An animal will, after eating heartily, lie
down and sleep, and I can’t see why ive
should not have the same digestive
rights as ihe animal. My theory regard
ing the origin of American dyspepsia is
that it comes either from not eating
enough, or going hungry too many
hours, and then piling great quantities
of food on an empty and exhausted
stomach. An American family, after
the lightest of 6 o’clock “teas,” will re*
main up sometimes until 10 or 11 with
out eating. Then, on retiring, some
starved member, Avhose empty stomach
has been gnawing itself for an hour or
tAVO, Avill surreptitiously invade the pan
try, and running from one extreme to
another, as people always do Avhen any
appetite is unduly repressed, gorge on
pie, cake, cold meat and vegetables. He

Tlie Condemned Nihilists.
Th e Pall Mall Gazette says that a letter
has been printed, signed “Arthur Csesar,
Surgeon,” which throws a little more
light upon the middle passage of the
Nihilists through the Red Sea. It is
noAv assorted by the Russian authorities,
d confirmed by the Daily News, that
tmLf of these Avretched people died
and Sagkalien, though
four wore unfortunately smitten with
ophthalmia. It is true that it is rather
hot in the Red Sea during the month of
July, but then Russians are accustomed
to beat; true also thv there can have
been but little air Avith the hatches bat
tened doAvn over 600 or 700 people, but
then Russians tk/ not want much air.
Mr. Caesar he saw the A'essel at
Port Said, TMe thermometer was then
one hundred and tAvo degrees in the

upon deck for any wtrpose, and special
arrangements were l ade to obviate the
necessity of giving them a breath of
fresh air on deck. He saw them push
ing one another’s pale faces away from
the narroAV port-holes to which they
croAvded. In short, every precaution
was taken to secure as large a mortality
as possible on the voyage; and in the
opinion of this observer, as of every
other independent man Avho has heard of
the conditions under which these untried
political offenders Avere shipped, “a vast
number of the prisoners Avould die ere
they reached their destination.” No
slaver in the old days could have afforded
to run the risk of the survival of so feAV;
for the trip could not possibly have paid.
Whenever an opportunity offered, the

'rousing upon lSrd of Aen.r,
Tortured in every joint with intlanunatory
rheumatism, is a prospect which may become
a melancholy fact if the twinges of the dread
disorder are not checked at the outset. Per*
sons of a rheumatic tendency find Hostetter’s
Stomach Bitters a useful remedy, nor do they
encounter the risk in using it they do from re
sorting to that active poison Colchicnm,
which is often employed to arrest the malady.
The use of the Bitters is equally as effective
in its results, and is attended with no risk.
There is ample testimony to prove that the
medicine possesses blood depurating quads
tiesof no common order, be tides tho-e of a
tonic and general alterative. It stimulates the
action of the kidneys and promotes the re

develop disease and are fraught with serious
danger. Fevernnd ague, dyspepsia, debility,
nervousness, constipation, etc., are rem
edied by it.
Carefully avoid the use ot rasping cathar

object, relaxation of the bowels, without
causing pain or weakening them,but promote
