The following is from the Houston
correspondent Of the New Orleans Plea
yune:
Planting affairs in Texas are sadly out
of joint. Negro labor represents about
one-half of the field industry in our
State, and, SO far, it has made little or
no demonstration towards another crop.
The unsatisfactory returns for last years
work disinclines numbers Of freedmen to
90 upon the share system. Planters are
engaging them on the best terms they
can BY the month, and paying ten to
sixteen dollars and rations, according to
grade If the Liverpool market don't
move up by general planting time to Sd.
or 10d.. the acreage, even in Texas, will
be much less in cotton than that of last
year. No one questions, dare say, the
curtailment in the old cotton States, of
the breadth of ground to be planted in
cotton this season, compared with last.
By May or June, / think, we will have
evidences of this fact, as it is fair to
presume that neither the factorage nor
planting interest will be instrumental in
crowding this particular crop again, to
the exclusion Of food and grain for home
support. The Texas crop (totaD will
60 over 400, 900 bales 250, 900 of which,
or more, viii GO from our ports.

Learning that great many fruit trees
have been planted during the season, we
offer few suggestions as to their future
management. We offer them as the re-
suit Of observation rather than Of indi-
vidual experience and as the teachings of
common sense.
Young trees should be carefully mulch
ed IN June, to secure the tender roots
against the damaging effects Of heat and
drought, and the soil kept light and free
from weeds and grass. In giving form
TO the tree, care should be taken TO have
the lower limbs as near to the ground as
they viii grow. BY this plan the bodies
are protected against excessive heat, and
the roots are Kept moist by the shade
and the mulching supplied by the falling
leaves. It may be objected to this that
the lower limbs will interfere with the
proper cultivation Of the orchard. Such
interference is exactly what is needed,
to keep the pillow from decorating the
lateral roots, 50 commonly broken, at the
dme they are performing their most i'm
portant function.
It's fact IN tae physiology Of fruit
bearing trees, that theIoots which, strike
deepest into the ground supply the food
that condnces to tie groHth OF the stein.
and branches. whist the lateral roots,
feeding near the surface, supply The ma-l
terial for the perfection Of the fruit, and
hence the importance Of not breaking or
disturbing them. - insure their not
being broken. the lower limbs should not
admit the passage under them Of the
horse and plow.
