mlllets, etc, should be planted. Sc
out tomatoes, and pinch back those
that are growing, to give them :;
strong stock. Plant snap and pole
beans, and work around those alread,
growing. Cotton and corn should
be brought to a stand, scraped and
moulded. Sweet potato draws can
be put out. Cut oats, rye, etc, the
latter part of the month. Pinch off
the runners on your stra wberry
plants; you can plant melons among
them as shade during the hot months.
Transplant collards, and set out egg
plants and peppers.
Be careful in shipping vegetables
that there are no defective or over
ripe ones among them. Have the
quality as even as possible, pack in
neat crates, distinctly marked, and
ship to good, responsible men. Gu
cumbers should be picked the day
before you intend shipping, and put
in an open frame to dry; then wipe
carefully and wrap in paper, getting
them as near q size as possible for
each crate. Do not ship any under
four inches in length, and see that
the crates are well packed to prevent
shaking. Tomatoes should not be
picked until they show signs of turn
ing. The smoother the fruit are the
better they sell. DO not place any
defective ones in the crate. Wrap
each tomato in paper. Peas and
snap beans must be perfectly dry
when packed. Never put them in
the crate with the dew on them
spread out to dry first. The least
moisture causes them to spoil and
get spotted. Bear in mind that if
you ship bad stuff, or pack carelessly, |
that you will not only get no money,
but that you will have to pay the
freight.
Ginger and arrowroot should be
planted this month; the roots can |
be broken into small pieces, each Of
which will serve as q plant.

that is the reason so few of them get

advertising in Summer, business Is

policy for a merchantile man. For
the very time that things are dull,
that is the time to attract custom, by
showing what they can furnish and
letting people know what they have
for sale. The last cold Winter is
again attracting notice 10 the south

from many in the north who intend
making this their home. They nat
urally look over the paper to see

in that respect will sell their house
hold goods before removal and repur-
chase here. But if they do not see
any business advertised, they will go
to the expense Of bringing down
what they have in use. We have
, known a number of new settlers to

: their things, and on arrival in Jack

commended by the books failed, but
on one or two applications of thu

Boston, Mass. AS our time is so
much occupied, perhaps some one of
leisure, well posted on this matter,

thing of this kind tends to bring the
State into notice and create favor

capable of giving the information
should not throw the whole burden
on us. Our columns are open to any
one who can throw light on the sub
