AMBER CANE.

Owing to the numerous questions
asked daily of various kinds. respect
ing this new and growing industry,
/ will try TO make such suggestions
as the season advances as we think
important to those directly interested.
At this time | will only say, select the
piece of ground most exposed to the
sun. Do not use barn-yard manures
on the land where you intend TO plant
cane this spring. If manured last
year and planted to corn, or any other
crop where the hand is well cultivated
and kept free from weeds, it is very
favorable. Avoid timothy sod, as it
has proven very bad for this crop in
the past. Clover sod is better.
