RICE GRowING IN JApAN.
Comnfssioner Yamari Visiting the Sa-
saunHh Plantations.

Mr. h Tamarl, one Of the Japanese
Commissioners ut the New Orleans Expo
sition. was in the city yesterday, and
called az the NEW Office. He camet0 the
United States in October last, and with
mir. j. Takamine had charge of the eXhib-
its of Japan. BY direction Of his gov
ernment he viii spend some time
in this country studying its agricultural
products, agricultural implements and
machinery. He is especially Interested
in rice culture, and VIII to-day, through
the courtesy of Col. John ScreYen, visit
that gentieman's plantation.
Mr.. Tamari is an interesting converse
ti0nalist. There is wide difference in
the methods Of cultiVating rice ln Japan
and the United States. According TO the
census OF 1889 the population OF Japan is
3T0l7, 300. OF this number 10000. 900 are
engaged IN agricultural pursuits. The
entire area OF the empire is only lb7 Gas
square miles, or less than three times
as large as the State Of Georgia.
lie says that he never saw rice planta-
ton in bis own country that contained
more than One-half an acre Of ground. A
three acre farm ie very large one.
Every square foot Of ground is carefully
and thoroughly TILED. Rice is one OF the
largest crops They have two ways Of
planting IL. One system is by irrigation
aud the other is similar TO the cuiuva-
ti0n Of wheat and barley. The grain
grown in the low country produces much
better than that raised in the up lands.
The Japanese rice planter soaks his
grain in water for ten days before plant
ing and then soWs it broadcast in
nursery beds of paddy land. This bed
Is well prepared and richly manfred.
The young plants are transpauted in
rows or hills about eight inches apart each
way. Five or six plants are set together.
A iavOrite method Of tertilzing is to
tramp green leaves or grass into the
muddy ground. For few days after
transplanting water is not allowed, but
after that IL is regularly drawn in at
evening and out at morning.
The Japs never allow the weeds 10 get
a start. Each farmer works his own crop
and hence fhe small patches. Otner
crops are planted between the rows of
rice. Often three crops are raised on the
same piece Of ground in one season. The
rice harvest is from October until the end
of November. Mr.. Tamari thinks that his
cOuutrymen put too much labor on their
crops, aud that the return does not COM
pensate for the expense. The cleaning
process is similar TO the American way.
Mr. Tamari is much pleased with this
country. He may spend three years here
before returning. He is a close observer,
well informed, and speaks with a slight
French accent.

During the sitting of the Superior Court
yesterday a negro named James Wright,
who was implicated in the larceny Of an
OK from c. A. Fulton, was tried on the
charge Of simple larceny. The tes-
timony showed that the thoft was
committed on May . and that
the OK was valued at $50. The jury found
the prisoner guilty, and recommended him
TO the mercy OF the court. He was sen-
fenced to - months with labor on the
chain gang.
The negro George Reynolds, who was
arrested for having entered the premises
Of }. ID. Schroeder on May 81, last, with in
tent to steal and who was indicted for
burglary, was tried and acquitted.
W. j. Smith, indicted for a misde-
mean0r in keeping open tippling house
on the sabbath, was tried and convicted
and sentenced 10y the court TO pay a fine
Of 1925 or TO be imprisoned SIX months
without labor.
Simon Myers, who was indicted a few
days ago for a mlBdemean0r, was tried
yesterday and convicted, but his counsel
made a motion for new trial before
sentence was passed. The defendant was
ordered 20 give new bond for his app
pearance TO await the decision of tie
court on the motion for a new trial.
The attention of the court was occupied
during a portion OF the sitting in hearing
the argument Of counsel in the case

is brought by the complainant for the

Savannahisns Packing Their Trunks for
the Springs and Mountains.
"Just look there,' said an expressman,
yesterday, pointing at a wagon load of
trunks. He had just landed huge Sara
toga, after a hard struggle on the top Of
the load. "Them trunks are as good as a
thermometer. They show that hot wealth
er is here TO stay, and that the people are
leaving town for the summer. People
have been getting away pretty lively for
the last few days, and you won't see any
more OF them for three months.'
"Where are they going? Why up in
the country to all the resorts-Tallulah
Fails, Rabun Gap, Gainesville and a
dozen other places up In the mountains.
The hot spell last week hurried them up.
Some how or other the season didn't open
as soon this year as common. Here it is
the first of July and they are not half
gone"
THE steamers airs carrying out good
many; they will take over 200 this week.
I win be glad when we are done handling
these big trunks" he added as he climb
ed UP on the wagon and drove OFF.
BY inquiry at the various railroad and
steamship offices, il was learned that the
annual summer exodus is fairly under
way The people who 90 away every
summer TO escape the swctering heat Of
the streets, have either already gone, or
are busy packing immense trunks full Of
light comfortable clothing. Lawns, linen,
seeTsucker and broad brimmed straw
hats form part of every wardrobe. Less
for style and more for comfort is the rule
governing the selection.
Those who are going by water will
principally put in the season at some of
the coast resorts between Cape May and
Bar Harb0r. Saratoga and other interior
resorts will not be sighted altogether.
Those who 20 of first are generally the
first to return. Many 90 first to the in
terror resorts OF Georgia and neighbor-
ing States, and later 90 further north and
pay a flying visit to Long Branch, New
port or Mount Desert.
The business men who can only spare
fortnight for recreation have not yet begun
to take their vacation. All such prefer
to put of their trip until later in the sum-
mer, and then have 20 hurry back 30 as to
be home when cotton begins 10 come in.
1t would DO interesting to know how
many leaves the city every summer. The
number is large enough, however, 10 be
plainly noticeable and from now until
September the streets will seem much
less busy than they were a few weeks ago.

corner Of South Broad and Habersham
streets with carbines and pistols, whence
thew proceeded Via the Coast Line Rail
road to tAe platz.
The range for the contest with carbines
was 200 yards The shooting was a new
feature in the annual contests Of the com
panY il being the first time that the Hus-
ears have used the weapon. The ammu-
milton used was furnished by the State
and is entirely different from that which
is used by the rifle clubs. Each man was
allowed i've shots with which To make a
possible score Of %.
The contest with pistols was shot on
range Of 80 yards, SIX shots to each man
TO make possible score of 30. ThereRula-
lions specified that the contestant who
should make the highest aggregate score
shooting with both c8rbine and pistol
should be declared the holder Of the com
pany medal for the year. The mNrksman-
ship of the IS contestants, with both
weapons was very fine. COrpl. }. T. Sbup-
trine made the best score, i7, out Of pos
sibe aggregate of %. His score, using
the carbine, was p. That made with the
pistol wac 70.
At the conclusion Of the contest the
company was reformed, and COrpl. Shup-
triue was ordered TO the front and deco
rated with the medal. The medal is of solid
gold and somewhat larger than a
silver dollar, and was won by the Hus-
sars in q contest at Charleston S. c., in
1875. Since then it has been used as a
company medal, and in the annual con-
test in 1854 was won by First Sergt. Geo
Sohley.
The programme was finished by the
regular annual inspection of the company
on the grounds. This inspection takes
place after every yearly contest, as re-
quired by the laws Of the state. The com
pany then broke ranks, and the members
and their guests were handsomely enter
