What I Know About Putting Down
Seed Cane.

AS the time approaches for thi
most important work, sugar plan
ters are very naturally anxious t,

IN the matter entitle them to con.
s'deration. Protesting to be one O,
these l give my views, and should
their adoption result in a fine stand
OF cane in Rapides for the coming
year l will be amply rewarded
First to be considered is that
cane being a species of reed, de-
lights in moisture and thrives best
in damp places, therefore select for
this crop your lowest and wettest
land. Second, as cane does not
follow the natural laws of repro
duction, choose your seed from the
thinnest and poorest stubble. this
being most likely to withstand the
cold and produce the finest return
Third, be careful to place each row
In its owhlfurrow, as large windows
DO not seem to keep we'll the man
ner in which it is done is inmate
rial, so that the cane is we'll GOV.
cred, and now, when ready for this
most important work, that of cover
ng, use a four mule pillow and be
sure there is no shuek visible after
your task is done. Opening water
arrows is a grave mistake though
commonly practiced, often proving
atal, for the cane being reed re-
Iulres much water.
