DESCRIPTION OF THE RAMIE.-This new
textile plant is drawing more attention than
any novelty presented to Southern cultiva'
tors since the war. A number Of planta-
tions in Louisiana and Mississippi are this
year devoted to its culture, as they former
ly were to cotton. 1t has one signal ad-
vantage over cotton-it can be harvested
and handled by machinery.
Ramie belongs to the nettle family; the
lint or fibre, used for cloth, is the inside
bark, obtained, as fax is, by breaking, or
otherwise getting rid of the stalk. Ityields
two or three times as much as cotton per
acre, and requires less cultivation. When
properly handled, the fibre is of the most
lustrous white color, little rough to the
touch. The cloth made from it, has rich,
silky hue, and lasts long time. 1t does
not give cloth agreeable to the touch, as
cotton or silk, but for all outside fabrics,
and especially for muslins, it is generally
superior to either cotton or linen. At pres
ent, it sells in London for sixty cents a
pound. To engage in raising ramie, a
Southern farmer needs only to obtain the
cuttings, and machine for cleaning the
fibre, which will cost about 1925.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1869-04-08

STORMY DAYs.-Let these be employed
by the farmer to good advantage, cleaning
up the barn, setting the barn and house
cellar in order, mending tools, and other
things that may be broken; helping the good
wife, if possible, cutting up roots, cutting
hay, and many other things that will sug-
gest themselves. Some farmers that we
have known remind US of the old Dutch
man at whose house traveller stopped one
rainy day for shelter. The house leaked
badly, and the traveller asked the owner
why he did not repair it, when he said,
"You surely would not have me 60 out into
the rain to do it, would you?" "But why
not do it in fair weather." "Why, it does
not leak them" So some persons are al
ways putting off and putting off, never
quite ready to do the job. This is a bad
way.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1869-04-08

How TO GET Big CRoPs.-As rule,
farmers are much more ambitious to get big
prices, than big crops. There are few
farms whose average production could not
be doubled in a very short time by more
capital and labor. 1t is safer to use capital
in farming than in almost any other busi-
ness. The credit Of the pillow is quite as
good as that of the loom and anvil and the
capital will come, if it is called for. Use
more manure, and get thirty bushels Of
wheat where you now get fifteen, and eigh-
ty bushels of corn where you now get forty.
The quantity of grain per acre is mainly a
question of manure and tillage. A big
compost-heap makes full grain bin. With
high manuring, the soil needs deeper stir
ring and gradual bringing up of the sub
soil to the surface. With the present horse
harrows and cultivators, nearly all the cul-
tivation can be done by horsepower, at a
great saving Of expense and great in
crease of the crops.

GEORGIA ANECDOrE.


Many good things have been published
as the sayings Of Judge Dooly, of Georgia,
but the following is, SO far as We knew, new
to the types:
His residence was approached by a long
lane, some mile and a quarter in length.
leading through the plantation, and fa,
from comfortable, on the. burning August
day of the incident. A neighbor, possessed
of more lodes than brains, rode down this
and without dismounting at the yard gate,
some FIVE hundred feet from the dwelling,
he began to call aloud and wave his hat, as
ifthe house was on fire. Judge Dooly came
out in great haste to learn the cause of the
noise, and was saluted with, II say. you
haven't seen Mr.. Williams about here to-
day, have you?" .-
sNo,'' said the Judge.
"Well, that's all I wanted" said the fel-
low as he rode of.
Dooly waited till he was nearly out of
sight up the long lane, and then commenced
to blow horn which hung in the porch ;
and when the horseman turned to see what
it was, the Judge in turn began to beckon
with his arm and shout for him to return,
which he did atfull speed. Arriving again
at the yard gate, Dooly came out to him.
ssCome up here. want to speak to,you.'
So the man dismounted and came up to
the porch. The Judge paused in his walk
and said, fercely:
"No, sir, I have not seen Mr.. Williams,
and hang me if want to see him! That's
all, sir; you can 60 now. p
Judge Andrews tells of another occasion
when, to use Southern phrase, be was
''taken down." by one of his audience dur
ing political address. He was candidate
for Governor of his State, and was explain
ing to large crowd how his friends had
pressed him to be candidate, and that the
Office was seeking him, and that he was not
seeking the office.
"In fact" exclaimed he, "the Office of
Governor has been following me for the last
ten years.
Just then tall countryman in the sudi-
ence arose and shouted: "But here's yer
consolation, Judge: You're gaining on it
all the time, and it will never catch you!'
The prophecy was literally fulfilled.
