An Important Crop for Augusta Farmers
to TRY.

1t may, and doubtless will be, news to
many of our country readers, but it is new
erlheless fact that several Augusta farm
ers are clearing a75 au acre on German or
Golden Millet, concerning which, we pub
lisn some facts below The firm OF. P. 8.
Sublett q. Son, of this city, bought large
| u of it last season and paid one farmer
- 80 bustel for his whole crop. Just
how, when from the appearance of new
pest, the cats crop is uncertain. it would
be gond time to try it; for it is not too
late to pillow up tle oats and sow millet-
The writer of the following dates from
Lebanon, n. Y and gives some facts that
should be read by our farmers:
AS this wonderful grass is of great val

who needs good supply Of excellent hay,
