A TERRAPIN FARM.

I have just heard Of an instance,
says Washington correspondent,
where a United States Senator is
supported by .errapins. Senator
Dennis, of Maryland, so NV infor-
nation goes, has about twelve acres
of land put down in pond that
is fed by salt water. This pond
make 5 the largest terrapin farm
probably in the world. and is the
source of a heavy income.
In it terrapins are raised for the
market, and it is said that over
$4,000 counts" have been sold
from it in one year. 1t may be
noted, for the benefit of the I'M
initiated, that "count" is a terra
pin over seven inches in length; and
that counts" are sold by number
bringing from STU to $l4 a dozen
or about 81 each. In market they
retail for about $40 per dozen-and
IN the fashionable restaurants are
served at 81 so plate-one terra
pin filling about three plates.
Smaller terraplns are sold mt lower
figures and are diamond" backs in
fact as well as name. There are
several terrapin ponds in Maryland
and they grow in Importance as
terrapin stew. Maryland STYLE" is
becoming more and more popular
among high-liyers. The thriving
city of Chrisfeld, in Maryland, ships
terrapins by the thousands, along
with its millions of oysters.

society, at Washington, is still in
session. The discussion between
President Conkling and his friends,
on one side, and Vice President
Robertson and his friends, on the
other, is becoming interesting.
According to latest advices, door
keeper Garfield will probably be
charged with having acted in bad
faith. In the meantime, Uncle

HOW TO RAISE COTTON.

David Dickson, of Sparta. Geor
gia who took the premium at tn.
State Fair in Georgi ia, 1869, fol-
eighteen bales of cotton on six acres
who before the war made 100000
in fifteen years by farming, having
begun witlfa capital of only $25, 600
and was equally successful after the
war, thus laid down, before bis
death, the rule by which he was
governed in the cultivation of cot
ton:
Lay off rows four fee: apart with
shovel plough, double furrow, and
put in fertilizers eight inches deep.
Ridge with long scooter, five
inches wide. Make the beds will,
a turning plough. and subsoil the
middle with shovel plough. Plant
with a cotton seed sower and cover
with board or harrow First
ploughing-run twenty-five inches
sweep with right wing turned down;
hoe out two or three stalks every
nine inches ten days aftel plough
ing. Second ploughing-use the
same sweep, the right wing turned
up little more. Third plonghing:
same way; run a third furruw in the
middle to level.
Cotton standing thick in the drill
will be much more forward in ma
turing.
On level land round the rows
north and south.
A Cotton plant to stand two
weeks drought must have four
inches soil and six inches subsoiI,
three weeks, six inches soil and TIE
same subsoil; four weeks-eight
inches soil and the same subsoil.
To improve the cotton plant.
select seed every year after the first
picking. up to The middle of Octo-
Der, taking the best stalks and the
best bolts on the stalks.
From the 10th to Goth of April is
the best time to plant cotton.
Plough every three weeks and let
the hoes come ten days after, clean
ing the cotton perfectly.
Continue ploughing till the 18th
to 10th OF August. Once or twice
during the season, shove out the
middle with furrow, to keep the
land level.
The ploushing OF cotton requires
Jne and a fourth day per acre.
Cotton plants commence when
small to take on and mature bolls,
md continue until they exhaust the
soluble matter OF reach full CAPACITY

It is all very well to sound the
praises of Covington, SO far as eli
mate, scenery, healthfulness, ETC.,
are concerned, but the average sum-
mer visitor expects something more.
He very naturally looks for some
thing in the shape of roads and
bridges, SO that he can occasionally
enjoy ride through the pines. I"
In this respect St. Tammany has no
inducements to offer. The Police
Jury, and the Incorporated towns,
should unite in their efforts to
remedy this evil. as any improve
ment would result to their mutual
benefit.

DIRECTIONS FOR CULTIYA-

dry, and, if possible, mixed with
clay; and in all cases the drainage
should be good.
The land should be very thorough.
" plowed and pulverized and har.
rowed. In India the natives pillow
sometimes six or eight times before
sowing.)
Planting-The seed should be
sown broadcast, if possible, either
just before or after a shower of rain
at any time from early in April to
late in June, and should be covered
with a brush or light harrow. MIR.
LeFranc. in his report on jute cul-
ture, recommends the use of Cal
houn sower, with which he states Il
a man can sow 10 acres day. Cost
of Calhoun sower eight to ten dol.
lars
Seed.-The seed should be sown
thin, as the plants should stand six
20 eight incnes apart on the land.
The quantity Of seed sown should
not be less than fifteen pounds nor
over twenty pounds per acre.
The crop, like wheat or oats,
should now be left alone until ready
to cut; during the first month. while
the growth is slow, the land should
be thinned. In some cases, while
the plant is young, a light harrow
may be used. After this time the
plant will take care of itself. and
will be ready to cut in about 100 or
120 days from the time of sowing;
the proper time for cutting being
when in bloom, the fibre being then
in the strongest and silkiest condi-
ton.
The plant should be cut near the
ground, either by hand OF machine.
Mr.. LeFranc states TINT the moving
"World No. l." will
easily cut the largest stock.
1t should be stacked or laid in
piles in the field for two days to
allow the leaves to drop off, then
made into bundles of about 100
stalks each, by tying one stalk round
each bundle, and placed in water to
steep, either in ponds or running
water, and kept completely covered
by the water for a space of five, ten
Or fifteen days, until the bark or
ibre is entirely separated from the
woody stalk. In running water
more time is required, but the fibre
S generally brighter.
1t should be examined from time
% time, to see when ready for re-
noval from the water, which is done
n India by the following methods:
When in the proper condition, the
bundle of stalks is raised to the
urface of the water by the operator
landing in the water; the bundle |
# stalks is seized by the tops and
,ent double about one foot from
he end; this breaks the woody |
talks inside; then allowing the
talks to float on the water, sud-
en- jerk is given to the tops, aid
he fibre is drawn from the woody
talk; holding the tops still the long
bre is dashed on the water aud
rawn towards the operator; this
emoves all impurities, and the fibre
; then laid out or hung up to dry,
hitch usually takes three days.
Another method is to strip the
bre from the butt end for a few
,ches, the woody stalk is seized,
nd by giving it sudden jerk it
