RICE culture in South Carolina and
Georgia, formerly an important agri-
cultural interest, has made but little
progress since the war, the great diff
ficuIties in the way Of it's successful
prosecution being the want of capital
and the unsettled condition Of labor.

figures that will pay. In 1859 the
product of Georgetown County,
South Carolina, was 95,127 t%ierces,
constituting nearly two.thirds of the
entire crop of the State. This was
the yield OF about 10000 acres then
cultivated, showing an average of
over forty bushels to the acre "a re-
markable heavy crop. Al the pres

Dyeing.

This process should, generally
speaking, be instructed to a person
who makes it his profession; the fol-
lowing hints, however, will be found
useful: Pour the color desired into
the water as hot as the hand can bear
it; pass the stuff to be dyed through
the water as often as necessary for it
to imbibe the color perfectly; take
care not to squeeze or express it. Next
hang the stuff up till it is quite cold,
which will only require few minutes,
then plunge 1t into two pailfuls of soft
water, and afterward in one of hard,
and before hanging it up to dry, pass
1t through a little alum water, the
process is terminated by pressing or
ironing out the stuff before ii is
thoroughly dry.
