Hops in the South.
Geneva, Orange Cou

Several times during the past eight
years the Baltimore Manufacturers Rec
ord has urged Southern cultivators to
pay some attention to hops. 1t says it
has been shown that this plant was an
Indigenous product in many sections,
that it had been generally grown-not
cultivated domestic use in yeast-ma-
king and for pain alleviatOr, and that
there were few old fashioned homes in
the Southern country places that did not
have near them one or two roots that
sent up vines and bore crop annually.
Inquiries made in many localities failed
to find ingleinstance in which the fruit
had been injured by mildew or insects,
two serious troubles that frequently de-
stroy the crops of the New York hop dis
trict. It has also been shown that South.
ern hops mature much earlier than at
the North land thatin many local. ies they
could be sun and air cured, thus saving
the cost OF the dry-hOuses, and the ex-
pense OF the processes employed else
where; and that finally the cheap labor
that abOunds in the South would be
greatly in favor of the hop growers at
that section; while, because Of the cot
ton presses on every plantation, there
would be no need of purchasing other
bailing machines.

and having charge of the work am not
at liberty to get off so easily.
AS to the drainage of Crooked lake, it
proved to be Intellectual in carrying off
the large collection of water through the
rainy season, and work had to be re-
newed on it. Mr.. Keller, the surveyor,
constructed a log dredge, which was put
in near the head of the canal and for ten
or twelve days I have had charge of
hands working it and it has done more
in moving sand, muck and hard pan than
100 hands could have done with ordi-
nary tools in the same length of
time. I am yet hopeful of seeing cane
growing in Crooked lake muck instead of
saw grass and rushes. [ do not think
that any one who owns land around
Crooked lake need be alarmed as to pros
poets OF the country's Improvement. The
muck lands will be rich enough for any
thing, when dried, and the hill land,
around the east ard north OF the lake, is
generally passable pine land which, when
fertilized, will produce cane to perfection
and all kinds of Southern fruits.
A friend complained to me lately about
shabby treatment at Lake City in the
Agricultural Station in private letter,
concerning an examination of diseased
guava plants, and fear his complaints
were too we'll founded Icould send some,
too, but the encouragement is not fiat
tering. S. W. CARSON.

or OF Indiana or of Iowa. In the Missis-
sippi River, at Muscatine, is an island OF
many thousand acres in extent largely
devoted to the crop, as dry and sweet as
any grown in New Jersey or elsewhere,
while on loamy or clayey lands in all
those States they are watery and poor.
| have raised nansemonds here with
precisely the qualities OF the Northern
grown on proper soils. But they require
a richer soil than the distinctive South
ern sorts.
Few persons on coming here and using
our rich syrupy sorts retain their taste
for the dry sorts, and l thing it would
not be difficult to find a large market
North for our kinds
If the Northern markets require q dry
potato, and ourrailroads will carry them
at fair rates, we can supply them, or we
even in Florida can raise and sell the
richer sorts peculiar to the South.

Sub-Dividing Land and Numbering
Lots.

In looking over the delinquent tax sales
awhile ago, and realizing the difficulty OF
locating any tract of land less than q
forty, and studying over the matter, this
idea of new subdivision, or rather a
new way of describing small parcels of
land, came to me.
Let every quarter section be divided
into five acre lots; on the north and
south line the lots are to run $50 feet,
and on the east and west lines to be ego
feet, or the number of feet to divide the
quarter section into thirty-two lots of
equal size. Then commence at thenorth-
east corner and number the lots
in the same order that the sections
are numbered in the township. Any one
buying five or ten acres or less they would
be sold and designated by the number or
numbers, Then even your correspond
ent could tell if he was paying taxes on
his own or some ones else, which he could
not do OH quarter section, nor could
the deputy surveyor, the assessor Or the
county clerk, and the only way to settle
the matter is to get an abstract of title,
which makes it all right for the abstrac-
tor. DIR. HEATH,

Irrigation for the Garden.

First secure an ample supply of water
as near the centre of the garden as pos
sible. A drive well is best and cheapest
where it can be had. Over the we'll build
a platform say six feet square and eight
feet high. Place on this platform kero-
sene barrel with an inch nipple inserted as
near the bottom as possible. Place your
pump so az to have the water flow into
it, A pitcher pump will answer every
purpose Get sufficient length of one
inch hose to reach every part OF the gar

Setting Out Orange Trees.

Some weeks ago Mr.. S. Bigelow an
swered an enquiry through these columns
in reference to transplanting orange
trees, and in reply received the following
letter.
s. Bige1ow:
| have read your suggestions in the
AGRICULTURIsT in answer to my note
with pleasure and instruction. [ agree
with you in most OF the points, but differ
from you in some, at least as far as my
preference is concerned. But dis under
stand you, your suggestions arenot arbi-
trary rules to be applied to every tree.
For instance, in taking up the tree
there might be so many lateral roots as
to render it very difficult to sever the tap
root unless same of them were cut nearer
than thirty inches from the crown.
Again, in cutting back the top, as you
say, we must be governed by the kind of
tree, whether a sweet Seeding or a bud
ded tree, and by the shape Of either. |
prefer to take off all branches below two
feet from the crown and to rub off all the
sprouts that make their appearance Oh
this part Of the trunk afterwards. I con-
slider this heading tree low, as it will be
a very few years until these branches will
be on the ground. | have no fear of bad
results from the direct rays OF the sun on
the bark of an orange tree. head low
not to protect the trunk. but to shade
the ground, and for convenience in gath
ering the fruit AS the leaves are only a
continuation and expansion OF the two
outer coatings of the bark, the functions
of the latter must, in a measure, be SINH
lar to those of the former. In trans
planting smaller trees, l have had
most vigorous growth where have cut
off all the TOP and left nothing but two
feet of the trunk.
| prefer to transplant after the wood
has matured, or, in other words, while
the tree is dormant. Others wait until
the young growth begins to start The
trouble | find, in transplanting either
when activity is Just starting or before it
stops is, that you are likelyto loosen the
barkfor short distance where you make
your cuts both on root and top, while
when in what is termed the dormant
state the bark adheres more firmly to the
wood. intend to do the work IN Novem-
