Notes and Comments from the
State Press.

The peach-growing center is gradu-
ally moving south. A few years ago
there were great orchards in New Jer-
sey. Then Delaware was the chief
producer. Now Maryland and Vir-
GINA are coming to the front. The
largest peach farms are in Maryland.
The Round Top farm has $4,000
peach trees. On the estate of Col.
Watkins there are 100000 trees. A
peach trees usefulness is over after 10
or u years of life, and the soil in
which it grows is unfit for peach cul-
ture.
All nations use the grindstone, and
it is perhaps the one piece Of mechan>
ism that has the same form and is the
same in principal everywhere.
Memphis Avananche: An extern
sive experiment in the manufacture of
sorghum has proved great success in
Kansas. A bright grade of crystalized
sugar without the sorghum taste has
been produced, and henceforth Kansas
expects to raise its own sugar.

twelve acres of melons and raised 5000
which averaged twenty-five pounds, be

The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1883-03-31

For several years there has been talk
about farmers raising their fuel on their
own farms. Prairie grass has been
bound in tight rolls and used for grist
and Touring mills; cornstalks also
have, in severe weather, been con
siderably used as fuel, and give excel
lent heat.
What is required is some liquid sub
stance, like tar, in which to dip some OF
the strongest stalks, and put these in the
centers OF bundles foot thick and two
feet long. The stalks dipped in btu
men adhere to the others. and all are
pressed tightly together, and bound in
three places with tine wire. The sec
tons are set up vertically in the center
of large Russia iron stoves. Burning
only on the surface, section of this
fuel will last four hours. When the
surface is covered with ashes, it can not
burn; but gently jog it till the ashes
fall, and it burns again. and so on, and
/ am convinced fuel prepared IN this,
or some equivalent manner. will some
day be in universal use.
Meanwhile. we have corn cobs. There
is very important consideration in
favor of home-raiscd fuel having the
qualities OF woody FIBER and not emit
ting unwholesome gases as do the vari-
GUS grades of soft coal abundantly
mined in various parts of Iowa, and
generally in use in factories, hotels and
houses throughout the northern Missis-
sippi Valley. Indeed, the soft Goals are
so repugnant to health and comfort that
most of the well TODD and intelligent

/ coal, at double cost, contendng that the
superior steadiness OF the heat and the
| greater healthfulness of the apart
ments, more than compensate for the
price, Eli u.f
As q summer. or cooking fuel. corn
cobs have the decided advantage, over
