AGRICULTURE.

WHAT LANDS NEED DRAINAGE?
lands that contain more water than is
needed by tho crops growing upon
them. If you intend to raise corn or
wheat the land will need more draining
than IT intended for grass. Lven grass
lands need not be very wet, as, if too
wet, the growth of aquatic plants
and grasses take the place of the oul-
tivated grasses and ruins the hay and
pastures.
Loose, porous soils, ,underlaid by sand
or gravel, are drained by nature; but
oil land that is underlaid by clay, rock
or other impervious material needs
draining.
What is to be gained by underdrain-
ago2 Tie surface Of the water in the
soil is lowered. The roots of cereals
and grasses may penetrate as far as to
the surface of the water, but never into
1T. 1t 10 necessary to draw the water of
to such depth rs will give the roots of
growing crops plenty OF room to reach
downward for that nourishnent that is
necessary to their growth. If the water
is only one foot from the amount of soil
from which to gather nourishment, with
the disadvantage Of having their feet
wet by capillary attraction. Only aqua
tic plants grow we'll with their feet in
the water.
The lowering the water below the
surface prevents large amount Of
evaporation, and It's effects in cooling
the soil. The water being removed
air and warmth arc admitted to the
soil.
Drained lands are, for thia reason.
ready Tor planting ut leust two weeks
earlier i'll the spring. The growth of
crops Is quickened through tho summer
by the increased temperature of the
soil, which amounts to several degrees.
and the Injurious effects OF early frosts
are prevented in the same manner. Crops
are, therefore, given an increased period
IN which to make their growth of at
least two weeks. This is certainly very
important gain.

An Anticipated Fossil Of BygOne Age

Nero Griswold, .colored, who resided

9th, 1883. Nero was native born
African, having been sold as a slave
into this country something like a GEN.
fury ago. His exact age was not
known. We believe he was enumera-
ted in the census of 1880 at 1873 years.
He was known as an old man by men
in this county who are now wearing
the honors of four score years when
they were quite small boys, and it is
evident that Nero was between 12O
and 1876 years of age. He claimed to
have been a servant Of Gen. jackson
in the war of 1872. He retained full
possession of his faculties up to the
time of his death, but during his long
sojourn in these parts never learned tt
talk good PLAIN United States, and fol
some years past it has been quite diff

he was able to get about very wei
