Southern Horticultural Productions,

The New Orleans Times gives the re-
suit Of an interview with Mr.. George
Booth, of the firm of NJ. George & Co,
Chicago, in relation to the fruit pros
pect there and shipments. 1t says:
Mr.. Booth was formerly citizen of
Alton, Illinois, where he engaged large
ly in the production of fruits and vege-
tables, selling almost exclusively at St.
Louis and Chicago. His experience as
producer, compined with his intelli-
gence as merchant, has no doubt
greatly facilitated his observations, and
his views are correspondinSly enhanced
in value.
Mr.. B. commenced his prospecting In
the vicinity of Crystal Springs and Ter
ry, in the State of Mississippi, and
wound up at New Orleans and the
country surrounding this parish. At
the points named in Mississippi he
found the soil about the same in kind
and quality as at Alton, ILL.,, and finely
adapted to the production Of peaches
and strawberries; for peaches it is, in
his Judgment, better adapted, straw
berries growing with slight cultivation
as finely as in the vicinity of Alton
where the culture is high and perfect in
detail. Upon full and careful inquiry
he estimated the present crop of peach
es in the vicinity of Crystal Springs at
fifty thousand boxes, and in the neigh
borhood of Terry at forty five thousand
boxes

Improve Your Live Stock.

Even on we'll managed farm thers
is generally room for Improvement in
the live stock. Horses are sometimes
kept till they are old and weak, unable
to perform the necessary labor and us~
fit for sale. Cows are sometimes kept
until they are entirely unfit for dairy or
for breeding, but they consume as much
provender as those which are in their
prime and able to yield large supply
of milk and strong, healthy calves. A
great improvement might be made in a
flock of sheep by culling out from it,
at least once year, all the ewes that
produce light feeces or an inferior sta
pie of wool and supplying their places
with others of superior quality in every
way. A great improvement may be
made in swine by getting rid of un-
thrifty animals and introducing the
best breeds which possess the desirable
properties of fattening readily, coming
to maturity at an early age and paying
we'll for the food they eat.

farmers Gardens.

We know how ii is so few farmers
have gardens. One reason is that they
need attention just when the rush Of
work is on. Wheat is more Important
than cabbage, onions and garden sass"
generally. So the wheat is cared for,
and the garden stuff goes to the wall.
Another reason is that farmers Imagine
their garden work must be done with
the spade, instead of the plow. If you
find garden on farm it is usually in
some corner SO hemmed in by trees and
fences that there is no room for plow
to work. A 7x0 garden requires cou-
siderable time to make if it must be
done with the spade. We have heyeto~
fore advocated the allotment by farmers
of clear, large piece of ground for
garden purposes in order that most of
the work may be done by horse power.
As We have preached, SO we have prac-
ticed. We have laid out about an
acre, worked it with the plow, and
sOwn it with the drill Everything is
IN rows wide enough apart to work the
cultIyator between them. We have N
row of radishes, row of onions, q row
of beets, and so on. This may Be waste
of land, but it is economy of time and
labor. If you consider that the soil Is,
less exhausted by only half the usual
space being cropped, perhaps there is
economy of land after all. What is an
acre out of q hundred? The too com
mon fault is that we till too much land.
If we titled less, and did it better, ws
should gain more in the long run.

Habits of a Man of Business.

A sacred regard to the principles Of
justice forms the basis Of every transac-
ton, and regulates the conduct of the
upright man of business.
He is strict in keeping bis engage
ments.
Does nothing carelessly or in a hurry.
Employs nobody to do what he can
easily do himself.
Keeps everything i'll its proper place.
Leaves nothing undone that ought to
be done, and which circumstances per
NIT him to d..
Keeps his designs and business from
the view of others.
Is prompt and decisive i'll his deals
ings, and does not overtrade his capital.
Prefers short credits to long ones, and
cash to credit at all times either III buy
ing or selling; and small profits i'll cases
with little risk, to the chance of better
gains with more hazard.
He is clear and explicit in all his bar~
gains.
Leaves nothing of consequence to
memory which he can and ought to
commit to writing.
Keeps copies of his important letters,
and has all letters, invoices, and bust
ness documents put away in an orderly
manner, SO that on any occasion they
may be easily referred to
Is always at the head of hia business,
well knowing that if he leaves it it will
leave him.
Holds as maxim that he whose
credit is suspected is not one to be
trusted.
Is constantly examining his books,
and sees through all his affairs as far as
care and attention will enable him.
Balances regularly at stated times,
and then makes out and transmits all
accounts current to his customers, both
at home and abroad.
Avoids as much as possible all sorts
of accommodation in money matters,
and lawsuits where there is the least
hazard.
He is economical in his expenditures,
always living within his income.
Keeps q memOrandum>boOk In his
pocket, in which he notes every partlcu-
lar relative to appointments, addresses
and petty cash matters.
Is cautious how he becomes security
LOT any peISOH, anu Is GENEROUS WHICH
urged by motives of humanity.
Let man act strictly to these habits;
when once begun they will be easy to
continue in, and success will attend his
efforts.
Take pleasure in your business and it
will become your recreation.
Hope for the best, think for the worst
and manfully bear whatever happens.

Utilizing Garments.

At this season ladies who possess
grenadine dresses (and who does not?)
will find the following recipe for their
renovation very useful, as the process
renders the fabric literally "as good as
new." The work requires a whole day,
and careful attention. Rip the dress to
pieces and brush it well; get five cents
worth of soap tree bark, put. it in a
bowl and pour boiling water over it;
let it stand fifteen minutes, then stir
briskly for few minutes and strain
Into this liquid put tablespoonful of
gum arabic previously dissolved. Pin
sheet on the floor, and upon this pin
your grenadine, being careful not to
stretch it. The right side of the gren-
adine should be next to the sheet. Wet
the goods thoroughly with the mixture,
rubbing it lightly for few minutes
with a sponge. Let the grenadlne re
main pinned to the sheet until almost
dry, then unpinning it, sponge the right
side of it with the mi gture, and re pin
it on the sheet right side down. In
five minutes cover with another sheet
and press quickly and carefully with n
hot iron. After this process the grena,
dine will look new, and fully repay for
the trouble

Words of Wisdom

Omission OF good Is COMMISSION Of
evil
1t is absurd to be serious about trif-
ling matters.
He that lends to all shows good will,
but little sense.
The memory should be a storehouse
not lumber>room.
You may gather rich harvest of
knowledge by reading; but thought is
the winnowing machine.
Keep the horrors at arms length.
Never turn a blessing round to see
whether it has dark side to it,
The great master Of even single in
strument of music is indeed a wizard
He chains us in the slavery of delight,
and is the only despot that rules over
willing captives.
Advice is offensive, not because it
lays US open to unexpected regret, or
convicts us of any fault which has es-
capped our notice, hut because it shows
that we are known to others as well as
ourselves; and the officious monitor is
prosecuted with hatred, not because his
accusation is false, but because he as
sumes the superiority which we are not
willing to grant him, and has dared to
detect what we desire to conceal.
