THE cold of the present Winter has
been no respector ofsections of country
At Mobile, Alabama. January 5, it was
colder than in 1880, when the oranges
were killed, and the coldestsince 1919,
when the mercury was only two or
three degrees lower. An old farmer
says of the late freeze: You see the
mercury went down to nine and a-half
degrees, and the cabbages were frozen
through. Sunday the sun came out
and the mercury ran up as high as
fifty degrees. This thawed the plants
and killed them. They are now lying
on the ground black and wilted. It
is the same with the lettuce and with
the green peas. I had five rows, IT'S
yards long. of green peas. They would
have been ready for market by the end
of the month, but these peas are as
black as ink, and the vines are dead
down to the bottom"
