si y„ the Editor f the Plantation:
The cost of tho steam plow is too
Creat without the co-operation of sov
erul planters ; the isolated life of the
planter, incident to the vast size of
the plantations, and the lack of cap
ital renders co-operation, at present,
impracticable. Whatever may have
been the causes, tho effects of our
System of planting in the South are
■Briefly as follows : Planters, as a rule,
I borrow money to make crops; monev
commands, in this channel,
per cent, per annum ; notes
due generally in the fall, reu
■Bcrs it necessary that large crops of
". Cotton should be made, ginned as fast
S''its picked, end sold. Ginning a crop
X taxes the mules as much as the pre-
Pwiems cultivation, and often lasts till
BNlanuary. •
This process prevents tho sowing
of gruiu crops in the fall, upon which
Is dependent the rotation of crops, so
essential to successful husbandry In
every clime. Without this rotation
of crops, like small grains and tho I
grasses, the preservation of humus
Syß the soil is well nigh Impossible, j
The destruction of humus renders
the cotton crop more precarious,
more subject to "rust,” and increases
the cost of the labor employed to get
the soil in good tilth. Water or
steam-power applied to the gin. re
leases the working stock from that
exceedingly laborious tusk and gives
: leisure for fall plowing—the best of
uli seasons for plowing. Fall plow
ing inevitably introduces the largo
two-horse plows, thereby effecting
more thorough work and a gradual
deepening of tho soil. These are iu
k cidental advantages only. Let ns
B turn to the actual results achieved
P by the use of steam during (lie pusi
f year by the writer. Just one year
ago (October, 1871, ) X purebased the
: following machinery, to-wit: One
: portable steam engine, eight horse
power, cost laid down at my planta
; tion in Bartow county, Georgia, i
pt. 150; cost of a Quten of the South i
grist-mill, $183; cost of out-off-saw for
sawing fuel, $25; cost of a Daniel
Corn and Stalk Forage Cutter, SBS;
oust of a Sweepstakes Thrasher and
Separator, $loo; cost of a Cotton Gin,
R 2 5; cost of bells, puuip, hose, &e.,
$125; saw-mill and li.xtures, $450, to
tal investment, s2,t’>4s. Freight is
not included in tho above estimate, |
jfecupt on the engine.
The engine inis been worked almost
constantly since it was bought, and
is in as good condition now us then,
so far as a motor is concerned. When
attached to the saw-null, its average
work is about one thousand two hun
dred feet per day of ten hours; cost j
of working, $2 50. The “slabs” us j
they come from the log arc borne to
the “cut-off-saw” ami sawed immedi
ately for fuel for the engine, both
saws being run simultaneously if
| necessary, ’l'lie lumber is readily
sold for sl2 per one thousand feet.
The grist-mill averages 7n bushels
meal per day, at a cost of $1 75 for
every ten hours’ work.
l Tlie engine Is readily hauled by
L four mules or oxen, and during the
■ pnM summer was carried many miles
■ li'"ui Inline, together with the Ault-
Ktlian Separator The average captte
Iraty, with the Separator, is from 4t) to
■ #"' bushels wheal _ per day. The toil
Hfpaid was tho tenth. Cost of opera
" liug was sl2 per day. Value of wheat
ai Hie time of threshing was $2 per
| bushel. One yoke of oxen move ii lo
K&lie rear of my burn; there it is ai
ntuched to the straw-cutter, and euis
P”tip, in lengths of an inch and less,
■rye, barley, oats and wheat straw.
Bfiiay and shuck \s. The last named
■"roughness” is italicised because It
■ls generally cast out outlie ground
■ anu ted, thus losing oue-hulf, while
E it is worth more i>cr luu pounds than
I hay, in the Atlanta market, or when
K passed through tho above implement.
E Its capacity is an average of 2,00 u
■ pounds per hour, or ten tuna per day.
B (Query : How long will it hike a man
■to cut that much hay or forage by
■ hand '!) Cost of running it by steam
Bis $5 per day. Instead of pulling
■fodder, it is economy to cut off the
■tops above the car, and pass all
■through this machine.
I The engine can easily be attached
■to two gins at once, and also convey
■the seed to a cotton-seed hullor. Ap
■ plied to a steam press, It will pack
■cotton or hay faster than by any otii-
Ber process. Its value over water
■ power is that it is portable. Hitherto
■ the mistake generally made lias beeu
■ that planters purchased stationary
■ engines. A portable engine is of io
ta estimable value to them. Through-
Bout the South, as a general rule, a
■ large cotton planter, making 300
■ bales, will haul in the seed 480,000
■ pounds to his prill-house, lueuted
■ about one-half mile from the cotton
■ plants, on the average, assuming the
■ general size of plantations yielding
E 300 bales cotton. In the following
• sirring, he hauls back again 330,000
■ pounds cotton-seed for manure or for
■ seed. Now, how much does all this
i hauling cost, and how can it be
I cheapened V An eignt-hor.su power
i engine, and a little saw-mill, will
I build a lint-room by two days’work,
I at an expenditure of $7 for lumber.
I The lint-room, if placed in every cot
’ ton-lield of llfty acres, will enable
i the planter to gin it where it grows,
| leave the seed where it will he needed
I tin l following year, and haul away
I only the lint cotton, neatly packed by
I steam pressure. This "lint-room”
| and shelters will the next year store
I the grain or grass crops grown on the
| adjacent land. These crops eonaum
[ ed there, will save considerable ex-
I iiense in the cartage of manure, and
E facilitate composting it with the cot-
I ton seed, if desired.
It is only a question of time when
E steam will aid us in irrigating.
In conclusion, lot me quote from
an elaborate report contained in the
f lieport of the Department of Agri
i culture for 18G7, in support of the
economy of steam as a motor:
“A team must have periods of rest
j equal to one-half of the ordinary
hours of labor. A steam engine needs
no repose. An ox-team cannot work,
on an average, more than eight hours
in twenty-four. A single ox will
consume as food the value of one
bushel of corn a day, which would
equal twenty bushels for ten pair a
day. A steam engine of good con
struction, and of ten horse power, can
he run during a day of sixteen hours
by the consumption of an equal
amount of corn asfuel. A team needs
constant on,re, and cost most when
of the least service. The short dura
tion of animal life, and the risk of
premature death, add not a little to
the cost of animal power.”
The chief danger in running a gin
by steam-power is the risk of creating
afr'wtion of the rjin, thus causing fire.
The frequent oeourence of gin-houses
being burned annually in Georgia
proves that this is likewise the cause
when horse-power is used. A planter
desirous of ginning by steam should
first secure a careful and experienced
ginner. There is very little danger
of fire from the engine when a spark
arrester is used.

Jordan's Joyous Julep.
A Specific l’or Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
Petkkkbcro, Va., Jan. 20th, 1875,
John L. Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: Ho well pleased
am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tify to the superior merit of your unequaled
preparation for Neuralgia. 1 shall esteem my
self happy should even one of that worst of all
classes of sufferers be led through me to take tbo
Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to find any relief
except from your preparation. She was relieved
by the second dose as per directions, arid has not
had a return of it for two months. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your medi
cine, but I have a right to be so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant iqalady would
have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself, and that too in a minute, and
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so,
it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and
I prefer giving the credit in your favor of the
best testimony mail can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
Columbus, January 16, 1876.
Mr .Jordan: —l take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one oj
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little, benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per
manent cure. It Is only two days since w<- began
the use of it, and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yourß, with respect,
MRS. L. I. NORMAN.
