We hail with pleasure the new
curing processes--the tobacco
seed farm. We welcome the awak-
ening of planters to seeing the
necessity of improved seed and
curing processes, and are glad to
know that so many are making
tobacco agriculture a study. We
hope they will add to their libra
ries useful books, and that they
will welcome to their homes and
support useful papers, and more
over we should rejoice to know
that they would themselves use
the columns of such papers more
freely. We hope the SOUTHERN
ToBACcoNIsT may be able hum
bly, to do some good part for the
planter, as well as for the mer-
chant, and will spare no pains to
promote the planter patrons in
terest if he will accept our invita-
ton to write to us. In the mar
kets We will try to post all par.
ties alike.-1ObaccOnist.

treatment for betterment: who
able to inaugurate a new, more
iudicious, saving and economical
system, is all easier question
asked than answered.
BY contrasting one section with
another in material prosperity,
it has become very marked that
the cattle and grazing. grass and
grain sections, are nearly always
pointed out as the most prosper
Gus, which, in turn, is evidenced
by betterfencing, improved lands,
more comfortable houses, better
clothed families, finer, fatter
stock, more modern and i'm
proved implements ofagriculture,
better educated families, and
what is better still, a better bank
account and greater credit.
Again, if we have read Alright
on this subject, it is equally true
that mixed farming has paid bet
ter than tobacco alone. Cropro-
tation often saves the land mon.
ey too. We are not contrasting
the exceptional cases in such
parts as our market gardens

some have done, and the refiec-
tions are any thing but pleasant.
Now, We are well aware that ,re
this We have reached this point,
the planter will have asked himself
over again. What does that chap
know about farming anyhow, and
il ne does know why don't he tell

the Alliances and planters ought
