G. w. CALENDER.

To the Standard.
Having received many inquiries, by
letter and otherwise, in regard to Flori-
da, since my return from there on the
last of January, have concluded to
embody the information l have about
this Gland of flowers" IN a short letter
for your columns that all my friends
may see it. Most of the knowledge
that possess of this goodly land is de-
rived from the conversation of those
who live there, who have made it their
home for years. | do not desire to
influence any one who is doing well in
this State to sell out and make Florida
his home. Well enough is hard to beat.
My advice to all living here and pos
sessing competency, steady income
and a good home, to remain where
they are. 1t is more than probable
that such will be dissatisfied by moving
anywhere. 1t is all mistake for any
one to think that he can live in Florida,
Texas, California, or anywhere without
labor. The necessaries of life are ours
when we earn them by the sweat of
the face. This is Gods law. Man
may be happy and cOntented by obey
ing His laws but not otherwise. Ihave
never yet seen the country in which
the necessaries of life grew upon the
trees. 1t is perhaps as near the case
in Florida, but it is far from being the
case there. If a man is determined to
change his place of residence, know
of no place to which | would sooner
advise him to emigrate than Florida.
The climate is salubrious and pleasant,
the thermometer seldom rising higher
than go Fl. The sea breezes are mild
and exhilerating. The productions are
rich and abundant. Nature has done
her part in preparing this State for the
home of man. She has here spread
out her beauties to delight his eye, her
luxuries to feed his body, and her mel
odies to animate bis spirit. With her
beautiful flowers, her singing birds, hel
CLASSY lakes, pleasant breezes and abun
dant productions, there are few thing;
wanting to make it the home for which
we long and the paradise for which we
sigh. A. T. SEITz.

Our Public Roads.

For several weeks our public roads,
in every direction, have been almost
impossible with loaded wagons. We
seldom ever travel or haul over these
roads, but nevertheless we are willing
and anxious to be taxed freely to make
good roads aud bridges in every direc-
ton. There is just about as much
good sense in trying to make a crop
without tools as to market it after it is
made without roads. Why can't we
have a tax sufficient to make good
roadsH We are as much opposed to
unnecessary taxation as any one, but
the advantages of good roads to the
farming interests of the county are so
much greater than the necessary taxes
required to make them that we are for
the roads, and willing to be taxed to
make them. Oul county is out of debt
land in prosperous condition, and we
<can see no good reason why we do not
take the necessary steps to make them.
We must have them, and why put it
off longer? Why not begin now?
But how is it to be done? We say by
taxation, because we can see no more
equitable way. The Weather classes
and land owners would be the greater
Geaefciaries and of course should pay
in proportion to the benefits received.
We would be glad if the present
Legislature would so amend the road
law as to give road commissioners am
pie means to make their reads good.
Put the taxes high enough to do the
work, and let our honorable county
courts see that the work is well done
Taxes to makegood roads, if judiciously
expended, are good investments anC
will give large per cent. profit tt
every citizen and especially the farmer
Let us haye good roads as soon as pos
sible.

superior potatoes. A quick soil is what
you want if you propose entering the
early market. Any good rich soil not
inclined to pack, light, retentive of
moisture in at least medium degree,
will make good crop. If your crop
hardens IN the hill, you must bar off
and throw back loose, light dirt for the
tubers to form in. If any further in
formation is desired don't hesitate to
write again. l will be pleased to hear
from you as your crop advances, upon
its condition, and | may be able to give
you sword fitly spoken" This crop,
like all others, needs for success care
full study and adapting means to seasons.
No routine rules can compare with ex-
perience. The best of all manures for
any crop is brains. If a man does not
study his crop, suit his cultivation to
the season and condition of his crop, he
will certainly fail of success. He must
use his brains; must observe and Judge
afterwards what is best to do for his in
terest. Respectfully,
G. w. CALENDER.

Mr.. FL have been engaged thirty,

Mr.. FL have been engaged thirty
five years in manufacturing cotton. 1
still favor its manufacture, for the rea-
son that cotton is the cheapest material
out of which a covering for the human
body is made, and never will become
obsolete or be superseded by anything
cheaper; then, it will employ more
operatives than any industry with the
same amount of canital.
Rep.-Whele would YOU buy raw
manufacturing?
Mr.. F.-Chattanooga is a growing
market, supplied with good upland
cotton. And Caney Fork Falls are
not more than three.fourths of mile
from Rock Island depot.
Rep.-Then you regard the Caney
Fork Falls a good site for cotton
making?
Mr.. F.-Yes. The great local ad-
vantage for factory at this point is
its isolated situation. Say company
employed 500 operatives; they would
bring at least as many dependents,
making 1000 inhabitants, all consum-
ers, whose wages would amount to
800, 900 per annum, of which nine
tenths could be paid through store,
realizing from sales handsome profit.
In regard to labor l would say there
are thousands of natives that are now
ready to take situations, and / have
found native labor the most profitable.
There are other industries that would
pay here, too; machinery that would
shape hard wood, such as white oak
and hickory, say handles and spokes,
for the whole country abounds with
this material.
Rep.-Would it not be good place
for paper MILF
Mr.. IA paper-mill would certain
ly pay, as there is plenty of power and
pure spring water, and the manufact
ure of paper and starch both require
clear water, plenty of which can be
had at all seasons of the year at thi:
place. And further to aid the manu-.
facture of paper, | would say the whole
country abounds in soft wood, such 3;
linn, buckeye and white poplar, all o.
which can be brought to the mill by
the river and its tributaries.
Another element of wealth might bt
added to the Great Falls of the Caney
Fork, added Mr.. Faulkner, the build
ing of saw mill at the mouth of Col
Inns river. This river runs from the
mountains in Grundy county, distance
of thirty miles, through the best valley
of timber that can be found in the State
of Tennessee, consisting of poplar, blacl
walnut, and all hard woods that ar,
found in this latitude.
Our representative thanked the vet
eran for his information, and told hin
he would print it. The old gentleman
gave a smiling assent, and remarked
that he had noticed the American
was taking lively interest in indus
tries, and he thought it was doing
good thing for Tennessee.

The Ohio river has been on big

tions of country have been overlooked.
By the breaking of a dyke above Lou.
isville Monday night, thousand fam
lilies were rendered homeless, and num-
bers of houses we're swept away, but
only one life lost.
At Jacksonville, Ind, the gas
works are included in the overlooked

AT Cincinnati it is estimated that
40, 900 men are thrown out of en-
ployment by reason of the food, and
the suffering is very great.

The food in the Ohio river and some
of its tributaries continues to increase.
The Ohio is higher than ever known
before. At Louisville it is nearly
three miles wide. streets that were
never before flooded are under water,
and ten thousand people are homeless.
The city of Jeffersonville, Ind, just
opposite Louisville is all under water
except few blocks. Railroad tracks
and bridges are submerged and washed
away. Thousands of people are living
out in the woods by camp-fres. AT
Cincinnati thousands are crowded into
the upper stories of buildings, and are
supplied with food by boats.

Irish Potato Culture.
HENDERsoNvLLE, Tenn,
February 10, 1883.

j. B, RITcaRy-pe Sir: Your
order Of February 9Th to hand. The
potatoes shall be sacked and prepared
for shipment Immediately, and I doubt
not will be satisfactory.
In answer to your questions, LIST, we
plant about four bushels of cut potatoes
to the acre in checks, 80 inches each
way, one piece to hill. IF the pota-
toes are large and the rows closer, over
four bushels will be required. This is
for spring crop. We pillow both ways,
mouIdbOard always to the plant, unless
"hard in the hill"
I'd. We always plant spring crop in
checks. Some persons, in seasons wet
as last, have succeeded we'll with drills.
Second crop always in drills.
Sd. Cut large potatoes to one or two
eyes; smaller ones, size of guinea's
egg, or say from stem to blossom end
into two or three pieces. Cut large
ores, if possible, so as to have a por.
ton of core or centre of the potato
upon each and every seed piece. AS
the plant draws its support from the
cutting until rootlets are formed to feed
it, good sized cutting is, l think,
rather to be looked to than number of
eyes. Usually only one eye comes up
from second crop cutting. Why, 1
don't know.
4th. Manures.-If we plant in good
new ground no additional plant food is
necessary. If strong stable manure is
used upon a piece of land, plant to
corn and next year to potatoes. Raw
stable manure is apt to cause the tubers
to be specked or "pox. marked" Peo-
pie buy early potatoes by the look and
not by flavor, just as they do fruit. If
it looks nice, that is prime recommen.
dation. Rough, misshaped tubers sell
slowly and at poor prices. Have your
ground we'll pulverized, free as possible
from clods, stones, etc. We>have never
used any commercial fertilizers except
StockelPs (Nashville) "Rock City Fer
tilizel" last year. We were we'll pleased
with its effects, but Mosesl how it
smells 1t was almost impossible to
get the hands to apply it. We applied
it to the plants at first blowing and
threw furrow over it. The potato
needs plenty of potash, so ashes are
first rate for them, as is plaster. You
can at great profit mix one.half and
one-half these two and apply in hills OF
as top dressing; or, better still, use
both ways.
9Th. Plant as soon as soil is warm
and dry enough to work, usually early
in March, or about the 18th of March.
We have land now ready to plant and
shall put in seed as soon as soil is suita.
