lisliments, from which are sent out to
all parts Of the country thousands oil
/ tons of canned goods, especially corn.
All over New England, in New York,
New Jersey, Maryland and other
States further west there are hundreds
of canning establishments which pur-
chase all sorts of fruit and vegetables
grown by the farmers. Many oil
these are owned by the farmers them
selves. Now since the consumption
of al these goods is enormous in the
West, and since all the fruits and veg
tables grow as we'll or better in the
West than the East, why cannot the
farmers of the West undertake to de-
velop this industry. There might be
thousand canning establishments
in the State Of Missouri alone, and
agricultural prosperity of the State will
never be firmly established until there
is thus created permanent demand
at home for some of the crops the far
mers can grow.
As the capital required is small and
as the machinery and process are sim
pie, we really -see~no reason why can
neries should not be built and opera
ted by farmers. Of one thing they
may feel perfectly assured, there will
be ready for sale the goods if they are
good.
III Botetourt county, Va, there are
a number of successful canneries. A
gentleman in that county who is we'll
informed on the subject thus gives the
cost OF small establishment. 1t is
worthy of thoughtful perusal:
The capacities of the fixtures herein
described is adapted to q small can
merry" The boiler, with one kettle
would prepare enough of tomatoes,
etc, to fill 5000 cans, or three times
this number of peaches or apples.
Every additional kettle would proper
tionately increase the capacity.
The cost of d boiler of twelve horse
power is s22o; kettle, open, SIT.
This will do for tomatoes, apples and
peaches, and all kinds of berries.
If corn or peas are to be canned a
patent process will be necessary. This
will cost two hundred and twenty-five
dollars. With. this kettle you will
have a set OF crates.
Leaving out this we have the follow
ing additional items:
Open kettle and crates, extra, cost
Sc to So; exhaust box, $40 crane to
hoist crates out of the kettle, S13; air
pump, Sc; oil tank, So to s25; free
pots, So to $40; below Gaping tools,
2 each. Two of these will be neces--
sary for each man, but one "capper"
is sufficient in small cannery.
The prices of cans, if they are
bought at the right time are for two
pound cans S2.45 to S. per hundred.
The cases or boxes in which the
cans are packed for shipment, and
which hold two dozen cans, cost for
cases that hold twenty-four 2 pound
cans &c each for cases that hold
twenty-four 3 pound cans &c each.
The price paid for Smelling peas is
sc per gallon, for pealing potatoes &c
per bucket, that is the common wooden
bucket, for peeling and seeding
peaches, 12c per bushel. These are
the prices when the hands are boarded
at the cannery. If they board them
selves SLIGO allowed.

Plow your land and put in gooc
condition before bedding, run The
rows1off three. feet, foar inches each
way using according to the strength
of the land, from ninety to one hun
dred and ten pounds Of good fertilizer
to every one thousand hills. Use
farm pen manure in the drill with the
fertilizer, it will be found of very great
advantage, even if it is not convenient
to use it except in small quantities.
PLANTING.
Plant in hills as early after the first
of May as the plants and season will
admit. AS soon as the plants take
good root, commence cultivation,
whether in 4 grassy conditian or not,
and continue to stir the land with
pillow and hoe until the tobacco begins
to come in top, using short single
trees as the plants increase in size, to
prevent bruising and breaking. After
the plants become too large to admit
OF the use of the pillow, use only the
hoe to keep down grass.

TOBACCO CULTURE.
The Best Method of Cultivating
Fine Yellow Tobacco.
FROM THE SIXTY YEARS EXPERIENCE
OF JAMES b. HOBCOOD, OF GRAN
WILLIE COUNTY, NORTH CAR
OLINA.
PLANT BEDS.

The first work in preparing for a
crop OF tobacco, is to burn and SOW
in good time plenty of plant land, in
warm, moist situations. Select land
that will not become sodden by too
much rain, and, If possible, let the
spots be on creeks or branches, (far
enough off to guard against overflow
ing, } with a South or Southwest ex-
posture. Burn the land meX. My
plan is to put down on my bed, about
four feet apart, what we term "skids"
poles the size of a mans arm.
These are to keep the wood off the
ground. When these skids are burned
up one may, as rule, know that the
land IS burned hard enough, and that
it is time to move his fire on further.
This is the best guide l can give to
the inexperienced as to the length of
time the land should be burned. The
best time for burning in the latitude
of North Carolina and Virginia, is
from fist Of January to first of March.
Good, fine stable manure, free from
seeds Of grass, oats or clover, with
some good commercial fertilizer, is
what | think best to use on plant beds.
After burning, rake off the ashes,
cover the ground we'll with stable ma
nure, hoe up the bed thoroughly, and
make it fine by repeated hoeing and
raklng; then mix the tobacco seed,
using one aud half tablespoonfuls in
every twenty-five pounds Of fertilizer
to every one hundred square yards in
the bed, and then tread in with the
feet or pat with the hoe. Tobacco
seed require but little covering, and if
covered too deep will fail to come up.
Cover the bed with fine brush, dog
wood is best if convenient to protect
the plants from frost and to keep the
bed moist. Sometimes it becomes
necessary to force the growth of plants
in order that they may be large enough
to transplant at the proper time; this
is done by using some quick, reliable
fertilizer as a top-dressing, care being
taken not to apply it when the plants
are wet with dew or rain.
SOIL.
Gray, friable soils-fresh from the
forest, or long out of Cultivation-with
a dry porous subsoil, are the best
adapted to the growth and maturity
of yellow tobacco.

But these men were not spectators.

But these men were not spectators,
not gamblers by nature. They were
men who loved best the quiet of homo
| and the peaceful pursuits of agriculture.
Farmers and farmers sons back in the
States. = brief experience in mining had
satisfied most, and all had tried it until
they were satisfied. What they wanted
was an opportunity TO earn their living
and make homes for themselves and
families in obedience TO natures laws
and their own inclinations, by the culti-.
walton OF the soil, and the gathering OF
its ripened fruits and grains.
They were not unused to hardships.
What man or woman was that had been
a miner or miners wife back of go in
California?
And they were not towards. The
towards went on: later, when the will
derness had been, in measure. sub
dncd; when Drawer men had proven
the immense resources of the country;
had bridged its torrents; had opened its
mines; had driven out the Indians; had
laid the foundation for private fortunes
and national wealth-it was then the
towards came. or we're begotten of the
spirit Of gambling, the greed for sud-
den and immense wealth which the
ceaseless search for gold stimulates if it
does not create-came and plotted to
rob better men of their hard-earncd
savings. These men, say, journeycd
from their ravagcd homes upon the
Suscol Ranch to the foothills to begin
again, were not towards, and they were
Injured to hardship, and like all other
people they were too quick to forget
wrongs done them under the cloak Of
law. and they let their anger die out;
refused to peer too closely or too far
into the future, which they could not
control, and laughed as they journeyed,
Instead of crying; sang scraps of from
tier songs, instead Of recounting to each
other the story Of their suflerings.
And the women? Why, bless you,
dear reader. women learned long ago.
some centuries back, think it was, to
suffer and be still. Not one woman
cried out at the hardships she was COM
PEELED to undergo during that whole
journey.
