Sheep Husbandry and Other In.
dustrieS i'm Florida.
(CONCLUDED.)

Editors Florida Agricultwist::
We are told that there is a bust
ness among certain men in the north
which is extremely remunerative-
feeding penned sheep for the result
ing manure, which is sold to tobacco
growers at high prices per ton, they
considering it the best fertilizer to be
had for their purpose, it producing a
smoker rich and dark which burns
easily and evenly, leaving a white ash.
Any one of these three branches of in
dustry, taken separately, would be prof.
liable in this State; the three com
bined would insure the most notable
success, fitting in and working each
for the mutual good OF the other, as
if for the purpose made.
But ! have branched from the in
tenaed brief programme. The time
was not mentioned when the sheep
should be introduced on the farm !;
do this as soon as the place will show
enough pasturage, pea-vine, etc., to
keep them we'll filed from the begin
ming. A lean sheep will neither make
mutton nor wool to satisfactory ex-
tent.
1t has been suggested that the ma
tive stock will be the best to COM
mence with, securing cross from
them by introducing rams of the i'm.
ported beed, the Southdown or Cots
wold. Your sheep introduced and
crops planted. to be in the fashion,
and before you lose all your reputa.
tion and good character with your
neighbors, try and plant a little
"patch" of orange trees, merely as a
variety and pastime, and for thepres-
ent, as l said, to keep your neighbors
from adjudging you criminal inno-
vator and irreverent idiot in not fall
ing down and worshiping the al
mighty king OF the citrus race.
have always been a firm disciple of
this the industry OF Florida, and would
not have it understood that my con-
fdence in it is any the less now. But
1 have also, always believed that the
business on which a man must wait
several years before realizing remun-
Grafton for his labors, should be made
by that man secondary, unless he is
independent OF his daily efforts for
his bread. To the average man the
tolls and results by which he lives in
the present are his salvation. The
business OF to-day is in every sense
primary, and will be so till man can
live on expectation and fatten on
hope. Then plant your orange trees
when not pushed by your cane, sheep
and tobacco, and you will find that
they will grow as steadily as your
neighbors' who send north for their
fertilizers not half so good as your
sheep for the same purpose. And

At the time we produced Prof.
Taylor's article on die-back and rust
on the orange, we were not in po.
sition to exemplity his system from
the plates. We, however, are enabled
to do so now. Thanks to the ingenuity
of Mr.. Dahl, Of this place, who kindly
whitfield the blocks out with his pen.

kind of work. Prot. Taylor explains

notony of planting, and shearing
sheep every year, you will be content
to sell out that part of the business
and live the rest of your life under
orange trees large enough to shade
you and full enough to keep you, and
you will have the consolation of
knowing that you have been living,
not existing, up to date; nine cases
out OF ten your neighbor can't boast
of the same.
The solution is before you, and the

THE QUICKEST AND MOST EFFECTIVE
WAY TO CLEANSE IT, Is THE BEST WAY.
Mn Enron:
Some time ago you stated, that the chain
gang had been placed at the disposal of
the health officer, and that he was using it
well in having all manner Of dccayng OBJ
jects removed from between the Missis-
sippi lcvcc and the river bank.
This was no doubt a necessity, and all
who were interested in Cairo's welfare APP
plaudcd Mr.. Wooton and hoped that he
would continue the use Of the gang until
all the sink-holes and repositore, Of rub
ish and otill were disinfcctcd and flied
up, and all the cutters and sewers in the city
made to answer the purpose for which they
were constructed. But this hope has, so far,
been in vain. The places from which the
germs Of disease could cmauatc are still
numerous; but one of the d;Itiest, because
one Of the busiest streets in the city, is
Eighth street between the avenues, the
south side OF which always resembles the
hash trough OF Paducah boarding house
more than the cutters OF a decent city.
The cause of this resemblance is the i'm
perfect drainage existing at each end
OF the street, but especially at Washington
avenue where the mouth OF the sewer is a
foot higher than the bed Of the gutter.
As 4 consequence the gutter is Away,
full Of water, and therefore u constant at.
traction for COWS and hogs, which have
wadcd and widowed about n there in
search of the oifaI which accidentally find,
It's way into IT, and which cannot be swept
up, until the bed Of the gutter, for quite a
distance, has become one mass Of putrid
corruption.
Last summer the health officers attention
was called to The state OF the sewer; but
beyond leyelIing the bed Of the gutter moth
ing was done, \ few days ago our present
health officer was also asked TO remedy
the nuisance; but he seems to believe that
it is the duty Of the occupants OF the prop.
