SOME ST.. TAMMANY CoTroN.-Mr
J. o. Poole furnishes us with the
following facts. which fully demon
strate that st. Tammany. as cot
ton-growing parish, is fully equal to
any IN the State:
Er. Downs. who lives on the
Bogue Falia, about ten miles north
of Coving!on, carried 1900 pounds
of seed cotton to the gin, and after
paying the toll, had a fine bale left,
which Weighed 400 pounds.
MIR. Corkran, who lives OH Bogue
Chitto, s miles above Mr.. Downs,
carried 2200 pounds of seed cotton
to the gin, and received HOO
pounds of lint cotton, in two bales,
besides saving two or three sacks
of lint cotton for home consump-
ton.
But the most remarkable yield |
occurred on the place of Manuel
Taylor, whose farm is situated be-
tween the two above named His ,
cotton has two bolls to every joint
on the stock, one boil containing |;
the seed and the other the lint cot
ton, which simply has to be picked
and pressed, dispensing entirely |
with the services of the gin.
We are always gratified to an
nounce the success of our agricul-
tural friends, by whose energy
and industry the wonderful fertility
of the pine lands is being slowly but
surely brought to- public notice
and such undeniable proofs as the
above will doubtless attract the at
tention of persons seeking homes IN
the South, besides serving to en-
nance the value of farming lands
throughout tie parish.
We recommend the varieties OF
