Cotton.


Efyou are sure that you have got enough
of corn and other crops planted, to supply
you wants-making liberal allowance for
the uncertainty of the seasons, then plant
cotton. No other crop produced for sale,
if properly managed, will produce SO little
from mother earth. There are instances
of level lands, which with no other manur-
ing than resting the land every second or
third year, and the return of all the seed
and plant to the soil, in which the last
crops picked were much better than the
first. We have Mr.. Dickson's word and
example, TO prove that q cotton plantation
can be so managed that its productiveness
will increase each year, and the annual IN
crease of the crop will pay heavy profit
on the money expended on ferlilizers.-
And, mark it, this way of managing cot
ton plantation, after little, is the only
one that will pay with any certainty.
In planting cotton, it is great thing to
havs the ground 10 proper order frst-the
beds straight. if the surface admits, or if
not, without abrupt curves. Take time,
then, to have the soil well prepared, even
if you plant fewer acres. The harrow will
be found useful in pulverizing the surface
of the beds, when rough and cloddy.-
While it is very important to get an early
stand, it is better secured by a thorough
prepared soil, than by hasty untimely
planting. Read the articles on cotton in
thia and pracaadin0 Duuahara
Sweet potatoes, bedded last month, will
soon begin to furnish ''draws." Good,
fair, sandy soils, and plenty of manure,
are the prime requisites for success. Break
your ground very deep-open wide and
deep furrows--scatter good, well rotted
manure, or rotted chips, ashes, etc, thick
" in this furrow. and thrown on that a
broad and rather fat bed-run over this
bed lightly, with a rake to pulverize aud
level it, and you are ready for planting
The "draws" should be carefully taken,
the roots dipped in thick batter, made
with woods earth, ashes and fresh cow
dung, equal parts, stirred into water, and
the plans set with edible" or other
stick, about 5 or 10 inches apart in the
row. If the weather is very dry, plant
after O'Clock, pm, and pour gill or so
of water around the root Of each draw
leaving only dry earth on the surface, to
prevent too rapid evaporation from next
days sun. The after culture consists in
lightly scraping the sides of the beds, to
keep the weeds down, and stirring the
earth little, if it shows a tendency to bake
or become hard. AS soon as the vines
begin to cover the ridges and spaad across
the rows you may lay the crop BY. Close
attention to these hints. with the blessing
of Providence, viii insure q good yield ;
aud the crop ought to be larger This year
than ever before.
