THE FLORIDA AGRICULTURIsT.

Great Britain consumes yearly more
than 800, 100000 pounds. 1t Is man
uiactured into gunny cloth for baling
cotton, and into sacks for wool, grain,
rice, potatoes, coffee, spices, ard many
other articles Of commerce; and
again, many kinds of dry goods, in
cludino broadcloths, linens, cotton
goods, etc, are baled and sent to
market in dress OF gunny cloth,
The cotton crop oi the United States
this year will be 5,000,O0O bales, and
the cost OF the gunny cloth IN which
this cotton is sent to market will be
not less than S4,00O,000 All this
can be saved to The country, and es
pecially the South, every year, by
growing the jute here. Jute is
mixed with cotton, linen and silk.
1t is a material part of twilled car
peting and low priced broadcloth.
In combination with other te extlles,
it initiates the gloss OF Irish linen,
the luslre OF French silk, the beauty
OF Turkish rugs, and the splendor OF
Administer, Brussels and Venetian
carpets. Single or mixed, it enters
into thousand articles of trade. 1t
will indicate lack of Southern en-
terprise if American jnte does not
yet rise rise TO d textile Importance
second only to that of American
cotton.
The State Department of Agri-
culture should offer every induce
ment within their power TO foster
and encourage this new industry. for
we are convinced that it presents
grand opportunity tor developing
and diversltying the industry of our
State.
The fiber obtained from the ramie
plant qutic0 nicea in most instances
are good for nothing. Upon such
lands the mallow will grow luxuri-
antly, and yield an abundant and
profitable crop.
Specimens of these different ibres
are on exhibition at the rooms OF the
Department, at Rich
mond, where they can be examined
by those who are interested i'll this
subject.

A correspondent at Ocala, Florida,
saws: Il have some clumps OF al

sown two or three years ago. Can
not this grass be made valuable for
forage or hay in this country? Ii
SO, please tell me something about
how to cure it, etc, and obIige con

REpLY.-Altalta may be sowu
either in March OF November, in
very rich and thoroughly prepared
land, laid off in drills three and a
half feet apart, and seed scattered
quite thick i'll the drill. Sprinkle
ashes and bone dust i'll the drill, and
mix with the soil before planting
the whole ground having been
broadcast with manure previously.
Cultivate shallow between the rows,
allowing neither grass nor weeds to
grow and give the whole patch a
heavy coat of manure every tall. IL
can he cut and ted green when the
plant is in blossom, but its principal
value is tor hay. We see no possi-
bic reason why alfalfa may not be
proflably raised in Florida, on highly
manured and properly prepared
land; and we will emphatically add
shat 1t is perfectly useless to attempt
the profitable culture OF any OF the
valuable grasses i'll any other way.
Our California exchanges have had
a good deal to say about alfalfa from
time % time, and the Sacramento
Union remarks that the prejudice
against alfalfa hay as a winter iced
ior stock arises irom the fact that
farmers do not understand when to
cut it, and how to cure IL; or an an

stems become more like wood than

like bundle OF sticks than hay.
Then, again, it was formerly the
custom OF farmers to allow this over
ripe grass Lu lie III the sun and dry
until it had neither color nor nutri-
ment in II, and until even the seed
that had formed on it had shelled
out, Experience with this hay has
taught farmers many valuable les
sons as TO it's management. First,
they Lave learned That the seed
needs to be suwn very thickly on the
ground, so that the stems OF the
grass may grow small and slender.
secondly, they have learned that The

First Onions Of the Season.

The steamer Marlborough from
Bermuda, arrived on Monday even

tatoes, beets and tomatoes the first
installment of Bermuda onions. The
quantity was not large, between 200
and 800 crates, nor was the quality

cut lust as il is coming into blossom
before. in fact, it changes its color
from gleen to blue. Thirdly, they
have learned that as soon as the
grass is well wilted in the sun 1t
should be raked up into wlndrows
and then put into ricks and sliowtd
to complete the curing in this condl-
tion. BY cutting the clover while
thus green and treating 1t as thus H.
dicated, the fresh, green color is pre-,
served, the hay is kept in a soft ana
pliable condition, and all the nutn'
ment is preserved, and the hay Is Is
relished and eaten by stock OF all
kinds with the same zest that they
eat the fresh growing clover. The
hay, while in the rick, If put up as
suggested, goes through sweating
process that changes the juices to
starch and sugar, and that faStens an
the leaves to the stem, SO that in tu-
ture handling none is lost. Alfalfa
hay cut and cured in this way is ac-
tually more valuable for cows, hors'
or sheep than The best wild oat' or
wheat, or barley hay that can be
raised, and is a good feed to winter
hogs on. Ii cut when too ripe, and
cured i'll the sun, alfalfa hay Is not
worth as much as poor wheat or
barley straw.
The cow pea is Justly considered
difficult plant to cure into hay with
the leaves all on-but the secret OF
doing this successfully, is to treat 1T
like the altalta-that Is, do not wilt
or dry it in the sun too much. Give
the newly cut hay little sun and
air, and then cock up and house as
soon as you can do 50 with safety.
1t somewhat green and sappy when
housed, do not pack TOO close. and
sprinkle a little coarse salt among
the layers of hay as you stow 1t
away.

Transplanting and Cutting Back

Transplanting and Cutting Back.
from the Rural Neo Yorker.
Whenever a tree is transplanted,
many of the roots are lnJured-a
part destroyed. Those that remain
when set out in anew place are III
no condition TO feed the plant as 1T
was led previous to removal. Hence
the TOD must be cut back to restore
the equilibrium. Let us instance the
case Of a newly transplan;ed grape
vine. Ii many buds are permitted to
push and grow, the growth of each
at the end of the season will be
found to be'Ofsa feeble, immature
kind. Ii, on the other hand, but
one bud be permitted to grow, a
strong, healthy cane will be the re-
suit. Thus we see i'll The former
case the sap is distributed among
many buds and shoots, while in the
latter it is supplied TO one. The
tree or plant OF any kind may live in
either case While, however, cut
ting back renders the chances of life
greater and insures more vigor, we
have still TO consider whether few
strong shoots are not more desirable
than many feeble ones.

NEWTON WAS MISTAKEN.

Sir Isaac Newton long ago propounded a
theory which, In spite of its fallacy, has
had many adherents. He insisted that
the anatomy of the female arm is such
that it is impossible for a girl to move
her arms in the plane OF her waistband.
Without dwelling on the fact that he
unwarrantably assumed the existence of
female wristbands, it is sufficient to say
that facts conclusively contradict this
assertion. Several scientific persons have
since demonstrated by simple and
pleasing experiment that a girl can move
her arms in almost any plane. Professor
Faraday took girl of the usual pattern,
and young man selected almost at random
from his class on the Theory and Practice
Of Stone.throwipg" He placed the young
man on the floor Of his lecture.room with
the girl Immediately in front of him. The
liphss were then turned down for few
moments in order to favor chemical action,
and on suddenly turning them up again the
girls arms were found to be tightly elasped
around the young man in the plane. OF
his waistband, although at somewhat
greater altitude. 1t is impossible
TO break the force of this experiment. 1t
conclusively shows that the female arm
can move in the very direction IN which
Sir Isaac Newton asserted that 1t Could
nc. move. The same experiment has been
