as rational beings, reason together and
find the remedy, apply the means and
reap greater harvest. First, then I would
say, after fencing piece of land, see to
the drainage of it, if not the labor of
manuring cannot avail much. We know
it will rain and the water will run down
hill. The idea is to prevent its CARRYING
the manure and top soil off into the low
lands. A system of drainage is one of
the things we most need. Upon this sub
ject, perhaps, will give my ideas at
some future time; in the meanwhile |
would be happy to see in your columns
the practical ideas of some good farmer
or farmers in this section. We all see
our lands are not properly drained. We
take more off the land than we add to it.
the result being necessarily poorer land
and poorer crops. Since the war all of
US have been gulled with commercial
fertilizer under various names. All of
them warranted pure and sold on time.
Thereby hangs a tale. Show me a farm
er that has made anything except debt
out of these fertilizers and | will show
you an old hen with teeth, ready and
able to eat the profits. Let us profit by
past experience and not go in debt, but
make our own manure at home. Take
the Wire grass and rich tops, earth the
muck from the low places, haul it into
our lots, mix with lot manure, build large
pens and cover them, order one barrel of
lime to every ton-cOst laid down $50
one dollars worth of potash, one sack
salt-cOst $1.75 First a layer Of this lot
mixture, then little lime; another layer
and then your salt. The Potash use with
the muck, etc.

\ Rare Plant.

There is situated in Captain Reds gar
den, just in front of his house, rare
plant in this country. 1t is a ''sago
palm, native of the East Indies, and is
so seldom found in this country as to be
quite a curiosity. 1t is plant interme-
date between a palm and fern, from
which the ''sago" used as food is obtain
ed. The plant in Captain Reid's garden
has bloomed twice, one bloom above the
other, with a row of new leaves or
branches between, and it presents an APP
pearance worth seeing. 1t can be found
just in front of the Captains dwelling,
and we know he would not objectto any
one going in and seeing it.
