In an interesting letter on "The Peach
Tree in the Chattanooga Times, Mr.,
+. J. Bennett, the widely known fruit
grower Of Missionary Ridge, speaking Of
the various sections of the country for
successful fruit growing, says;
"The great Cumberland plateau,
which forms the northwestern barrier t.,
Fast Tennessee valley, and extends
both into Georgia and Virginia, TANKS
the upland valley area, which must BE-.
COME the leading fruit fields Of the
United States.
Here the great variety Of soils, Of
elevation, Of exposure and equitable eli.
mate, admit Of locating peach orchards
with a view Of all their requirements
viz: vigorous growth, bearing habit
frost protection and longevity.
In this latitude peach orchards proper
" cared for are good for twenty crops in
place Of three as over most Of the area
north Of Tennessee, and in the vicinity
Of Chattanooga, where most of the plant
iny has been done aud the greatest sue
cess obtained, peaches are larger and
ripen as early as at Atlanta and Griffin
in central Georgia, nearly two hundre,
miles south. e6 io e3t
The wonderful result is, in conse
quence Of peculiar, soil formation which
retains to an extraordinary degree sum
lner heats during winter, and partly t,
the great protection Of the Cumberland
plateau, both Of which are wanting il

SOUTHERN LOVE FOR THE YANKEE.


The Southern States generally art
not yet manufacturing States, but i'm
porters of Northern and New England
goods to al extent that throws q measure
Of reproach upon S 'uthern industry and
enterprise. The following article from
the Memphis Appe"l is only too true:
"rhe impression still obtains that the
Southern people cherish such a deadly
hatred to yankees that they will neither
smell, taste, touch nor handle anything
contaminated by yankee hands This
is a most egregions error. The South
ern people love the yankee, and they
show this affection in thnus md differ
ent ways. When they retire at night,
they unbutton yankee buttons to yam
kee made coats, waiscoats, pantaloolls,
shirts and drawers. They pull off yan-
kee boots with yankee buvt-jacks and
4iivest their feet of yankee socks. They
march to yankee bedsteads. turn down
yankee coverlets, yankee blankets, pros
trate themselves on yankee mattresses,
and lay their heads upon yankee pillows.
The bedbugs are the only things not
made by yankee hands and imported
from the land Of the yankees, On risln4
in the morning We tread yankee cur
pets, stumble over yankee chairs and
sofas. build fire with yankee coal taken
from yankee scuttles, in yankee CRATES,
catch the ashes in yankee pans, and u.s.
yankee poker, shovel and tongs. W.
repair to yankee washstands, pour water
from yankee pitchers into yankee bowls
and wash with yankee soap; then list
yankee towels aud yankee tooth brushes
Next we move to y yankee bureau, stand
before yankee glass, and use yanke,
combs, yankee brushes, yankee powder
yankee cologne in yankee bottles. W.
sit down in a yankee chair to yanke,
table covered with yankee cloth, yanke,
knives and forks, yankee dishes, ant
Iced upon yankee food. We Cal! fol
yankee toothpicks, seize yankee hats
from yankee racks, turn the key to ;
yankee lock, open yankee door, ente
a yankee buggy, seize the yankee ren'
to yankee harness, and repair to GU
place Of business, apd spend the d,y in
trading on yankee industry. The Souti
is rich in resources, but our people art
30 fond Of the yankees that they lavish
their wealth upon yankee enterprise. "
