"A HumDcT VI correspondents nave
asked for information in relation to
the cultivation OF beans rs q field
crop, or tor seed, including soil,
adapted to the crop, varieties, time
of planting, &c. We shall treat
briefly, from this standpoint; since
if wanted for family use, either
green or dry, the difference in cul-
tivation will be obvious. The chief
expense will be found to be in pull
ing, the planting and cultivation be-
ing exceedingly simple; but the
danger Of loss through rainy wealth
er, at harvest time, is often another
difficulty to the grower.
Beans for field culture should be
sown in drills two feet apart, at the
rate Of one to one and half bushels
per acre. Sow in the spring, on
dry, mellow soil, about the time
that field corn is two or three inch
es high, or after the soil is thor
oughly warm, and all danger Of
frost is over. A double-shovel
pillow is one Of the best implements
to cultivate with during the early
growth. Just before, or about the
time of blossoming, finish with the
single shovel, leaving the furrow in
the middle, between the rows
When thoroughly ripe, pull them,
keeping them grasped in the hand,
next the root, until you have hand
full. Set them on the tops, in wind
rows, squeezing the roots together,
and secure the crop, if possible,
without rain.
The great difficulty with beans is
to keep them bright after pulling;-
and if accomplished, it saves The
expense of future hand-picking.-
Many persons stack them thinly
around rough poles, with spurs pro-
jecting to keep them off the ground.
Place the roots next the poles, with
the tops slanting downward as much
as possible. Fasten, and cap the
top with slough hay, to keep off the
rain; and when thoroughly dry, re-
move to the barn, and NOW them
away; or, if threshed Immediately,
spread thinly and turn occasionly,
until entirely hard and dry. If
packed in barrels or sacks before
they are thoroughly seasoned, they
will be liable to mold or become
| discolored.
The cultivation of beans may also
include the sorts usually grown for
marketing green, or, as they are
termed, string beans. The cultiva-
ton of these varieties is exactly like
that of the white sorts, and the Gu
ring is precisely the same; pole
beans, however, are planted in hills
three and one-half feet apart, and
supported with poles. In this case
more labor is necessary, since it is
difficult to get through them with a
horse. The sorts usually grown for
bush string beans are Red Eyed
China, Valentine, Long Yellow Six
Weeks, Round Yellow Six Weeks,
and Early Rachel. Good varieties
of pole beans are Case knife, Indi.
an Chief, Sabcr or Scimcter, and
White Cranberry. The list of va.
rieties Of garden beans in cultiva.
ton is large, and includes Dolichos,
or asparagus beans, and RAaseolus,
or Lima beans, Scarlet runners, &c.
The White Navy bean is the sort
usually grown for shipment, but the
White Marrow is superior for fami.
ly use; but beans are at best crop
subject to many risks.

ELECTS OF Temperature on Ailch
Cows.

The Boston Journal of Chemis-
try says: The extreme sensitive
ness Of the mammary functions in
cows to the influences of cold, IA
tigue, excitement, unpleasant odors,
&C., is indeed surprising. We have
been greatly interested in observ-
ing the effects Of cold upon the milk
secretion as seen in the herd of
cows upon the farm.
During the past summer, in the
hot days of July and August, the
animals rcsorted to the lake to drink,
and after shaking their thirst they
would wade into the water and re-
main, sometimes an hour or two
with the legs half immersed. This
habit, it was found, invariably d.
minished the flow of milk at night,
and in order to learn the extent of
the diminution, careful observations
were made. 1t was ascertained
that standing in the water an hour
diminished the flow to the amount
of eight or ten quarts in herd of
thirteen COWS. The loss was so
great that whenever they resorted
to the water they were driven away
to the pasture again at once. We
have learned that from simply turn
ing the herd into the yard upon a
cold day in winter, and allowing
them to remain fifteen minutes, the
flow of milk was diminished to a
serious extent, and consequently the
animals were not allowed to leave
the warm stable during the entire
winter, except for brief period up
on warm sunshiny days. Water is
brought directly from we'll into
the barn, and the drinking vessels
are arranged so that the animals
have to move but step or two to
supply their water. The nature of
the water supply, and the conven-
fences of access, are most important
points in the management Of mich
cows. A draught of ice-cold water
taken by a COW in winter, cuts short
the milk yield for the day from one
to two pints. Well water drawn
into vessels, and allowed to stand a
few hours, covered, in warm barn,
has its temperature raised several
degrees, and this practice should be
adopted by all thrifty trainers. It
would undoubtedly pay we'll to
warm the water, but this is
attended with considerable incon-
veniencc where large herds are
kept, unless steam apparatus is
used.
Cows in milk are often greatly in
jured by rapid driving from pas.
lures by needless boys and unthink-
ing men. They should never be
urged faster than a walk. Gentle
ness and kindness of conduct to-
ward cows have a wonderful influ-
ence on the milk pail, and also on
the progeny Of the animals. A bad
tempered, irascible man ought new
er be allowed in a COW stable. A
man who will kick a COW in a pas
sion, ought to be kicked into the
barn-yard, and forever prohibited
from coming in contact with the no.
bic animal. The right person per-
son placed in charge of herd Of
twenty cows, which have been bad
~ managed, will in one month raise
the tactical products SO that the In
creased cash returns will pay his
wages. This is . statement which
has been verified more than once.

Condition of the Cotton Crop.
WASHINGTON. Octob,

WASHINGTON, october l6.
The following is synopsis of the statement
of the department of agriculture upon the con-
dition of cotton in October: "The cotton pros
pect has undergone serious changes since
the September report. The weather has been
generally favorable for picking. No violent
storms are reported, and the drought has not
prevailed, the rain fall in nearly all the cot
ton States exceeding two inches in September.
Florida alone reporting fully four inches, and
Tennessee three. The devastations of the cat
erpillar have extended further North, even into
North Carolina, and have involved the top
crop partially, and in many places wholly.
The influence of the drought in the late sum-
mer months has been cumulative in its effect,
and exhausted vitality is more apparent than
in September, yet there are districts which re-
port exemption from this premature decay, and
promise enhanced results, the effect of fertili-
zers in advancing the opening in the Atlantic
States. The continued effort of worms is short
ening the season of growth and Will greatly
hasten the close of picking In some places
the crop is already gathered, and in many 9TH
ers the fields will be clean early in November.
The general average of condition is reduced
from ninety-one in The first week of September
to eighty-two in October-in October last year
the average was seventy-six, which was mate
rial reduction from that of the present month.
1t will be seen that the condition is still placed
higher than in last years report for October,
while the area, according to June returns, was
thirteen per cent. greater. The State averages
are as follows: Virginia 81; North Carolina
90; South Carolina Sc; Florida rs; Georgia
S8; Alabama 81; Mississippi 7S; Louisiana
72; Texas 85; Arkansas rs; Tennessee 80"

The Vote in this County.

There seems 10 be steady falling off in the
white vote of this County at every election
It is understood that the census of 1870 gives
the total white vote at 26OO and the colored
vote mt 1850. At the election two years ago,
the white vote was only 2o7S and the colored
vote 1414, making total of S4S7 votes. AT
the recent election, there were 1866 white per-
sons voted and 1867 colored persons, making
total of 323S votes. These figures show de-
crease of 2o7 white votes from the election two
wears ago, and the absence of 734 whites from
the polls, if the census of 1870 is correct. The
eolored vote remains within less than one hum
dred of its full strength. The indifference and
apathy of the white people is no less striking
than the persistent voting propensities of the
colored population

Tho Constitutional Amendments.

Both Of the amendments proposed to the
State Constitution arc doubtless confirmed by
the people, and it remains to be seen whether
or not they will receive the concurrence of two
thirda of the next General Assembly, which is
requisite to secure their final adoption. In all
the counties, except Georgetown, there appears
to be an overwhelming majority in favor Of
the amendments, and correspondent of the
Charleston Ne,os states that the Moses faction
furnished the tickets in Georgetown with @No"
printed to both amendments. The vote in An
derson County stands as follows: For the Con-
stitutional Amendment, changing the time of
election, 1882 votes; against, none. For Con-
stitutional Amendment, Art. 18th, prohibiting
creation Of public debt, 2zSS votes; against,
none. ~.
