leaving Honolulu storm arose. The gale in-
creased in violence. One by one all the sails
were blown out Of their bolt ropes. and for
twenty eight hours the bark was hove under
bare poles. AZ times the wind would rise into
a perfect hurricane. Finally oil was cast upon
the waves and the waters were somewhat
eaimed. About this time the storm moderated

at our own door. This consideration, and
the urgent necessity for diversifying our
agricultural products, should have full
weight with the many practical and en-
ergetic farmers who have already settled
in Florida or are seeking homes among us.
The cultivation of grass and the max
ing and saving of hay are evidences of an
advance in agriculture and civilization;
and should this great industry and econ
omy become widespread and successful
in this and the adjoining States of the
South, it would not only save us millions
of dollars yearly. but also add greatly to
the comforts and luxuries of life by fur
nishing us with an abundance of milk,
meat, butter, and, perhaps, cheese-none
of which prime articles of good living are
now as plentiful or cheap as they should
be-
That tvexed question" of fence or no
fence,' would also receive it's quietus
should any considerable portion of our
farmers engage largely in the culture of
hay and forage; as no intelligent man
who has once pastured, "soiled" orin any
other way fed his stock on the luxuriant
and nutritious grasses, clovers and mil
let's, will ever again turn them OUT to
CLEAN half rations and starvation from

sions. It will take. some time, and
good deal nf labor and capital to produce
all the grass and hay we need for home
consumption-not only on our farms, but
in our cities and villages; and twill be a
proud day for Florida and her Southern
sisters when we have reached that point.
That it can, and ultimately will be
done, | fully believe; and that the pro
duction Of an easily grown and indispen-
sable article; which now costs the South
millions of dollars every year, should be
at once entered upon by our farmers,
needs no further argument.
But, the establishment of pastures and
meadows in Florida, where wild herds
have, from time immemorial, roamed
over and subsisted all the year round
on indigenous grasses, is a novel in
dustry, requiring an entirely new depart
ure. 1t will not be possible to throw
around 1t the bewildering glamour and
dazzling attraction of orange growing;

TNoTE-THE VETCH.-The vetch, grown for hay
by Col Phinizy, of Augusta, Ca, is probably the
" sativa, which has long been cultivated in Eng
land as fodder for all kinds OF CATTLE and is there
considered more nutritive and profitable than al
most any other herbage. AS a mixed crop, with
OATS it will, doubtless, prove valuable with u.s.
1t grows rank and dense on any good, deep, rich
and moist soil. There are, in Britain, 10 indigo
nous species of the vetch, and Chapman describes5
varieties as gowing in the South, of which seem
to be native. The perennial vetch may be readily
increased by dividing the root, or by seed-the
latter being preferable, of course, where q large
crop is desired. presume that seed can be OBJ
tanned from Col G. H. Phinizy, of Augusta, Ca, or
from any of the seed-importing houses OF the
North.l

In continuation OF this very important
and interesting subject will briefly men,
ton one or two instances OF successful
glass culture in this and the adjoining
State-of Georgia:
Mr.. j. Z. Lyman, a young stock farm
er, of Monticello, Fla, recently informed
a reporter Of the Times Union, that hehas
about seYenty-fve acres laid down to
Biassy both for .pdsturage attd hay. He
has tried the Johnson grass, which pro-
duces q ton of hay to the acre, without
the use of fertilizer; but if properly fertil-
lied, it can be made to yield three or four
times that amount. He cuts three crops
a yeaf-in May, July. and September. He
also uses the Texas blue grass for grazing
==transplanting the roots In close rows
61d tfiusj eventually covering theground
completely. But he coffsidefs this process
slow and expensive. He has quite herd
Of'brOod mares, mules. ETC., also a num-
Der of COWS, of choice breed and he raises
all the hay and corn needed for his stock
on his own place.
Col. G. H. Phinizy, Of Augusta, Ca,
recently stated that he has had great
success in raising hay from vetch and
oats. His farm, | believe, is In the Sa-
vannah river valley, just below the city
ofAugusta rich; bottom land, frequently
fertilized by The overflow Of the liver and
easily and dh6aply manured from theGity
stables; near at hand. He stated that
the vetch GRASS [see note at close of this
art1cle] is a perennial, not indigenous to
the South, hut imported. Oats are sowed
the oats are in the milk Or ''dotigh''
10 o4o1- al
breaking the ground and sowing the oats,
and the two come together. The oats
may be soWn in September, October or
November, or in March.
"Col, Phinizy said that during the re-
cent races in Augusta, he sold some OF
this hay to the owners of some of the
race horses Of the North, that had been
brought to Augusta, and it was found
that the health and condition of the ami
mails improved with this feed, and the use
Of mash, which had been given twice a
week, was wholly discontinued. Thehair
0f the horses became glossy, and the feed
was cooling; SO 1flanifestly superior to
timothy that Col Phfnizy said that he
was surprised to receive an order from
the North for some of the vetch oats hay
for the racing stables. He says it will
command better price than t1mOtny,
bringing $22 per ton readily, while timo-
thy is worth but $40.
''Col. Phinizy says that vetch grass
thrives equally as well in this climate as
any OF the indigenous grasses, and the
demand for the seed is growing. The
farmers about Augusta who raise it are
receiving orders from this State and Ala
bama, and Colonel Phinizy says he sent
some Of the seed to Montgomery recently.
There is no reason why it should not, in
connection with oats, take the place of
Northern hay throughout the South
The Savannah News from which we
quote, is, probably, oyer-sanguine in
able to 'sraise hay for the North and
West, as well as for it's own markets."
Let us not wildly jump at such conclu-
