In feeding grain to poultry it is better to

corn. Cooked potatoes make an agreeable

The yard should be graded with gravel so
as to incline the water to flow away from

Pineapple Culture in Florida.

came to Florida in the fall of 1879, says
Thomas E. Richards, in the american
AgriculturiSt, with impaired health and no
definite idea as to what business l should
engage in. l settled on the banks of the
Indian river, and found it free from malaria
and frost. | decided to embark in pineap-
pies, though / had it all to learn, and no
books or papers threw any light upon the
business. [ knew nothing of the kind of
soil required for pineapples or what culture
they required. But upon the advice of
neighbors | obtained 10000 plants at $40 per
thousand, and set them out. They looked
well for some four months, when they began
to die in the heart or bud. Nothing could
save them; they all died out. l abandoned
that land, and came across the sound and
planted few plants in my present situa-
ton, and they grew well. Finally l found
out why the first ones died, which was my
first lesson in pineapple culture. The fact
is, the pineapple will not grow in shell land.
Raw shell, either fine or coarse, will kill
pineapple plants. In 1881 l put out a good
patch of pineapple plants; they grew well
and kept at it, and have every year in
creased the number until now l have some
$50 900 under culture. With the same
amount of labor put into orange culture
there is more to be realized, for pineapples
bring returns so much sooner. We set 16,-
600 per acre, at cost of $3.50 for plants.
They can be bought for less, but that is the
price for the best and the second year from
planting they will yield nearly as much per
acre as a 10-year-old orange grove. There
is not as much land as is reported in South
Florida that can produce them without pro-
lection. but it would pay to protect them.
Where there is no danger from heavy freez-
ing a very slight covering will keep off
frost.
am sure there will never DO an overpro-
duction Of this fruit. l have made wine
from the fruit which proved excellent and
had fine bouquet. also make cider from
it the acid Of the pine is one of the bestfor
the stomach. Vinegar is also made from
the Juice which discounts northern vine
gar. think good article Of brandy
could be made from pineapples as there is a
great amount Of saccharine matter in them
They are also canned, so that all can be
used. Pineapple growing will be the chief
industry in this part Of the state in the
near future. have few new varieties Of
pineapples, some being much better than
the standard sorts. The Egyptian Queen is
a better fruit for most purposes, but it is
not good canned. The large pines, such as
Trinidad, are shy bearers and a rather
coarse fruit, but they are very handsome
and bring good price, from 81 to 81 so per

Keeping Several Kinds of Stock.

Agriculturists of this country are begin
ing more and more to see the need of not
only raising diversified crops, but of grow
ing more stock, and 1T will be well for them
not to contine themselves to one class of
stock. AS rule, says the american
Farmer, it will be better to have a few
CATTLE some horses, a score of swine and Il
small flock of sheep, than to have the same
amount of money invested either in cattle
or sheep alone. Poultry, too, may be made
an important source of income. There is
greater safety in such distribution of CAPT
tai, inasmuch as the different kinds OF stock
subsist on somewhat different kinds of food,
and if on account of drought, or some other
reason, one kind of fo;d fails, others may
be made available to carry through in good
condition at least one or more Of the classes
and kinds of animals kept.
Older countries have already learned
this lesson and as they are gaining expert
ence they become more and more confirmed
in this view of farming. England, consid-
ering her small area, is producing a large
amount of stock, and, as rule, high grade
of stock. Other countries OF Europe are
making special efforts through societies and
agricultural departments to encourage
stock breeding. Russia has lately been
especially active in this direction.

small Grain and Hay for Horses.

For several years past, says J. Il. Willet,
in the Southern CuItirdtor, have planted
small quantity Of barley or oats in city
garden as winter food for a horse. found

BILE, and the latter has been frequently
killed or crippled by our ''cold snaps." A
brother-in-law suggested rye, drilled in
rich ground, as good substitute for both.
have drilled a few rows of rye. in my
garden, for TWO years past, and have been
greatly pleased with the result The soil is
unusually sandy, but has been well manured

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1888-11-05

February, and two good cuttings were
made by the middle of April. The plants
were almost as stocky and well filtered as
barley. The amount of green food OBJ
tanned was surprising The only labor has
been the putting in of the seed and the cut
ting of the grain.
L write this note for two reasons. First,
TO recommend rye for winter grazing and
winter cutting. Oats are becoming quite
unreliable. in consequence Of the cold
snaps, which seem to have become chronic
with us. Every two or three winters, the
thermometer drops down to TO- or its neigh
oorhood, for one night or more, and the
tai oats are badly injured. Many are
abandoning the planting of oats in the fall
III consequence. Barley is Objectionable
from its beard and from requiring very
rich soil Rye is more hardy than oats,
and, when well manured, will give salts
factory returns.
secondly, to encourage the growing of
cheaper food for the horse Horse food, at
the south, outside of city stables, is almost
exclusively Indian corn and fodder. When
we remember that it takes five months,
with plows, hoes and wagons, to put this
corn and fodder into the barn, we may see
some OF its expensiveness as food l only
repeat what has been said in the Cultiudtor
many times before, that we alone of the
civilized world indulge in such expensive
food. Everywhere else, horses are fed on
oats and hay. The livery stables in south
ern cities have found this out and eschew
corn and fodder. In the northern states,
Indian corn is coming to be used largely
for green food. Here is good lesson. But
the great lesson we are to learn is pastur-
age, small grain, grasses, hay, for all our
stock. Don't cultivate broad domain to
feed horse or mule or COW. They will de-
light to live on cheaper rations than that,
If you will allow them to do so.

Grape Culture.

The Orchard and Garden thinks that the
Champion is the earliest Of all grapes yet
tried and about the poorest in quality.
Early Victor is nearly as early and very
much better in quality, but the berries and
clusters are small. Moore's Early is but q
few days later in ripening, larger in berry
and cluster after the vines have become
well established, than the others, and al
though not quite as good in quality as Vic
tor, is far better than Champion, and gives
better satisfaction than either. Cottage
follows Moores very closely, better grape
and more abundant bearer. We esteem it
more highly than any of the aforemen-
toned. Black Hawk ripens with the rest,
not so large in berry or cluster as Cottage
or Moore's neither is it quite as good in
quality
Lady, the earliest white grape, is about as
large in berry as any Of the above; clusters
larger than the others, sweet aud excellent,

Hints on Saving Potatoes, Etc.
From the Macon (Gd.) Telegraph.
If the bagging trust continues in force,
the suggestion of Capt. B. d. Lumsden as
to the growing of what is known as the var
nish tree may be worth something. He has
shown us sample of the fiber of the bark
of this tree, and it seems to possess ali the
requisites for the manufacture of bagging.
1t is of creamy wniteness, soft as silk, and
of long staple. Some years ago Capt. Lupls-
den sent specimen Of the fiber to the de-
partment OF agriculture at Washing
ton. The commissioner reported 1t
as being very fine, but said
the tree could not be grown here
profitably. as it was not hardy plant; that
IN China it was used i'll making a kind Cf
imitation silk. 1t is known that the okra,
a species of poor mans coffee beargrass and
Spanish dagger produce good file, and
the fiber of The wahoo poplar, willow and
mulberry is used in the manufacture of
horse collars. The varnish tree produces
equally as fine fibre. 1t grows rapidly,
very hardy and cattle readily devour the
leaves, either green or cured like fodder. Capt.
Lumsden thinks the Tree can be cultivated
to great profit. When four or five feet high

tie and the fibre used as hemp or jute One
great advantage is that the tree Is only

THE DRUMMER.
His Cheek immense, but his Heart in
the sight Place

Jl6 Rlklb S1aSS'
From. the RarttccH (GG.) Sun.
The average commercial drummer is a
jolly fellow. full of pranks and playful
mischief. He is omnipresent Go where
you may, you will meet him. Never a
railroad smashup, but he is there; but he
rarely ever gets killed--he doesn't sit still
long enough. He is sup to snuff" knows
the best hotel and puts up there. If he
doesn't like anything his fraukness is
amazing. His cheek is something stu2end-
Gus. and if there is a pretty girl around
he is sure to form her acquaintance, If she
is not deaf, dumb and blind; and If
she needs protector, she can
"bank" on the drummer every time.
His good humor is proverbial, aud unreal
sonable hours the wear and tear of travel
nor aught else spoils his happy disposition.
And talk Why, he'd make phonograpn
blush with envious shame. Exaggera e.
Well, some. His house is Away the boss,
and the number of sales he makes IN SIX
store town is startling.
But, with all his peccadillos, the drum
mer is intensely human-humanely human
and he is the personifcation of chivalrous
| charity of free, open-handed generosity.
A sample in point from his gripsack: A
crowd of drummers met at locoa Mondey.
The shocking news met them that tie Rob
erts house at Bowersville had been burned
to the ground.
what shall we do. boys? We can't get
accommodations at Bowersville," cried one.
But one who was better acquainted with
the pluck and energy of Mrs. Roberts,
| cried:
You just bet we can. Mrs Roberts
will find a place to stow us away for the
| night, and give us good supper in the b'r-
gain. Let's go down and help the little lady
out" And every hoof of them went down
to Bowersville, and after eating a meal fit
for kings and drummers, each of them
handed her a So bill, remarking that the
supper was worth that sum, and re-
fused any change. And it is said that al
of the drummers are imposing upon the
good little lady in that same way.
