PAPER Boxes from Pulp.

A late invention makes paper
boxes directly from paper pulp. Bos-
ton takes the lead in these boxes,
which are seamless, and can be made
to any size or shape. The process as
described, is that after being dried,
the boxes are run through second
machine at the rate OF 60 per minute,
receiving, under a pressure OF 4OOO
pounds, such, enclosing as may be
necessary. From the time the paper
stock is taken from the bales until the
the perfect box is taken from the ma
chine, manual labor is entirely avoid
ed. By the use OF one set OF machines,
it is said, 10000 can be produced per
day at less than one. third the lowest
market price OF handmade goods,
and doing the work OF 200 hands as
the process is ordinarily conducted.
The paper box has come into use Tor
an infinite variety OF purposes, and
this success is an important contrlbu-
ton to invention.

bamboo. When ripe, the canes are
cut down to the very ground, in
lengths OF three to tour feet, and
thrown into pants, which. are towed
along the canals bysmules Or oxen to

mill, Itnme diately after cutting, the
large quantity OF trash or dry leaves
is rolled clear OF the cane stumps,
and heaped into rows, there to decay
and form a rich manure for the sue;
deciding crop. In a few days the
stumps throw ont their shoots, and
the same routine OF cultivation Is re-
peated for twelve months more, any
vacant spaces where plants may have
been missed being carefully supplied.
The canes of the first year are called
"plant canes" those OF the second
and subsequent years being diStin-
guished as ''ratoons" and these ra-
ICONS have been known to be pro-
duced from the first plant tor twenty
years and upwards, the canes having
been annually cut down and stumps
allowed to shoot again. But this
continued reproduction from the
same stocks, which is now compulsory
on the planter from the scarcity OF
labor, OF course causes the cane to
degenerate, and to yield less album

land will give two tons for the first

more than one-tourth OF that quantity

there sufficient labor in the colony to

be little doubt that the present crops

Money in CabbageS.

Isaac F. Ialli,ghast, in Ne,c York TIMES.
There are at this season OF the
year, all through the country, places
of good, rich land which, from lack
of time, have not yet been planted,
or, by reason OF severe drought, or
the devastation of worms and insects,
or from some other cause, have not
at this time any crops growing upon
them, and the owners are now in
terested in deciding what, if any,
crops can still be grown which will
prove remunerative. 1t the land is
in good condition, and a supply OF
fine manure can be procured, there
are few, if any, crops which can still
be put upon such lands which are
capable OF bringing as much ready
money for the labor and expense OF
cultivating as good crop OF cab.

Simmons.
The multiplication Of all sorts OF
sugar-cane is usually effected from
top cuttings, but this cannot be car
ried on for an indefinite period from
the same original shoots without de-
terioration and as seeds hardly ever
ripen on the canes, new plants must
from time to time be brought from
distance. Thus New Caledonia has
latterly supplied its wild growing
splendid varieties for replanting
many sugar fields in Mauritius.
The Bourbon variety is praised as

tavian species Is. gioloceetms) Is con-

The Chinese variety IS. Si'ae'ase,
Roxb) is harder, and bears drought
better than the ordinary cane. This
species needs renewal only every
second or third year, and ripens in
seven months if planted early in
spring, but if planted in autumn and
left standing for fully a year the re-
turn OF sugar Is larger.
Many other varieties are known.
Excessive rains produce rank luXu-
rance of the canes at the expense OF
the saccharine principle. Rich ma
nuring is necessary to attain good
crops, unless in the best of virgin soil.
The lower leaves of the stem must be
successfully removed Ia process
called "trashing"), also superabun-
dant suckers TO promote the growth
upward and TO provide ventilation
and light. Moderate vicinity to the
sea is favorable TO the growth OF the
cane. The average yield of sugar
varies from one and one-fouIth ton
to three tons per acre.

frequently large trees are found
growing upon them, or they are
covered with smaller growth. la
some instances they remain entire,
while in others they have been shat
tered into. thousands OF fragments.
Sometimes there are corresponding
depressions near at hand, equally
hard to account. for ami adding TO
the cemplexity OF the puzzle. Many
OF these depressions have the appear
ance of having been dug out for
some purpose, but none have the
temerity to guess by whom or for
what. Such rocks are found in more
or less abundance all the way to the
coast, running9in d. southerly direc
ton, and even tare6ut into the water.
Quantities of galena, and other lead
ores are to be met with, and some Of
the quartz, which has gone through
the hands OF the assayist, shows
traces of silver. Other rocks are
rich in petroleum. About two years
ago these facts created excitement
and awakened interest sufficient to
induce several intelligent citizens of
Tallahassee to enter portion of the
land in that region, and they are still
in possession Of it, but have made
no further experiments for want of
capital. On some portions OF the
land entered have been seen indica-
tions OF recent disturbances--within
the past two years. Three or four
years since, some hunters passing
through.a portion of the same region,
came upon spring OF water on
which was a perceptible scum of oil,
that would adhere to and grease
their hands when dipped into it.
While, as before stated, it is hardly
probable that the phenomenon of the.
mysterious volume OF smoke is pro-
duced by a smouldering Volcano
though such things as volcanoes in
low countries, and even in the sea,
are known-yet, with the above ar
ray of facts, it would be scarcely
consistent to pronounce the thing a

A sugar estate is divided into
fields, OF from five to ten acres In
extent, by series OF canals, and the
method of planting the cane is simple
and easy when labor is at command.
The brushwood and grass having
been cut down and welded, are piled
into rows, six to eight feet apart,
across the intended beds into which
the field is TO be divided. These
beds are formed by digging open
small drains, two feet wide and two
1eet deep, at intervals OF every thirty
OF thirth-six feet, across the entire
field, beginning within few yards
of the canal in the center OF the es-
tate, and running to the side draining
trenches, into which they empty
themselves. The soil from these
small drains having been carefully
thrown upon the beds, SO as to raise
and round them off in the middle,
narrow banks or ridges OF earth are
made across them, from drain TO
drain, parallel TO and equidistant be-
tween the rows OF grass and brush
wood; and in these spaces, betwee.
the banks OF earth and grass, the
canes are planted III line, each line
being three or Tour feet apart, and
each cane plant nine or ten inches
from the next. The plants are plo-
cured by cutting eff the tops or up
per joints OF growing canes into
lengths Of ten or twelve inches, which
are thrust in a slanting direction
into the well stirred ground, and in
ten days or SO the long grass like
leaves begin to spring from the eyes
at every joint. These young canes

varieties in single season, but find
that for practical purposes there are
three or four which combine the most
valuable features of the whole. For

Fiat Dutch is the standard winter

Jersey and iurther south 1t can be
set correspondingly later. The

AS the cabbages head up best
during the cool fall months, the late
set plants make the finest and sweet
est heads, providing they have time
TO mature. 1t is now too late to
SOW the seed Tor this seasons use,
and those who have not supply of
plants must purchase them instead
The plants can usually be procured in
most sections at a small cost, but
purchasers have less chance of know.
ing what kind of stock they are
planting unless they purchase Of
some one they can trust. Good
plants are plenty in this vicinity
at $3.50 per 1000, and can probably
be obtained cheaply elsewhere.
Tiey are usually set two feet by
three, and cultivated by morse one
way. In this manner it requires
about 1000 plants for an acre.
Iii is very important that plants
which have good roots are set, as
otherwise they are liable to perish
from club root OF other disease. In
my "Manual OF Vegetable Plants"
published three years ago, l first ad,
vanced the theory that the little
white maggots which are frequently
found in plant-beds, and which eat
the fibrous roots off, leaving only a
long. straight tap-root, are the larvae
OF the striped flea beetle, and that to-
escape the maggots the flea must
first be Kept off. This theory re-
ceived considerable criticism from
other writers, but no one has yet
been able to disprove it, and from
further experience i am more than
