OPIUM CULTIVATION in INDIA.
License Must be Secured from the Govern
ment-Fields Like Sheets of Silver.

License Must be Secured from the Govern
ment-Fields Like Sheets of Silver.
AS the cultivation of tobacco is pro-
hibited in England, except under spe-
cial license from the excise authorities,
SO the cultivation of the poppy in Brit
ish India is forbidden unless license
has been taken out. When a cultivator
takes out a permit from the opium de-
partment to cultivate a certain area
usually two-thirds of an acre of his
own land) he receives an advance in
money to secure his allegiance, and he
binds himself to deliver to the opium
agent, at a fixed price, ordinarily five
shillings lone dollar and twenty-five
cents) a pound, whatever opium may
be produced upon his land. When Off
cial supervision is efficient it is very
difficult for man to cultivate poppy
on larger area than is covered by his
license without detection. The cult
vation cannot be concealed 1t is sort
of garden cultivation, the poppy plants
being grown in little squares or beds,
intersected by tiny water channels for
irrigation whenever this is possible.
The growth of the plants is carefully
tended, and at length the time comes
when they burst out into flower and
the fields look like sheet of silver as
the white petals of the flowers glisten
in the morning dew. These beautiful
petals are the first produce of the crop;
for the women and children of the Gull
tivators' families come forth and pick
them off one by one and carefully dry
them, so that they may serve afterward
as the covering of the manufactured
cakes of opium. Then the peoples, with
their bare capsule heads, remain stand
ing in the open field until it is consid-
cred that they are ripe for lancing.
The cultivators then come forth in the
evening and, with an implement not
unlike the knives of cupping instru.
ment, they clarity the capsule on its
sides with deep missions, so that the
juice may exude. In the early morning
the cultivators reappear witha scraping
knife and their earthenware pots, and
they scrape off the exuded juice and
collect it in their pots. And this is
crude opium. Weekly

Wherein an Education Paws.

To be the most successful farmer a
man should be well posted and well
educated. There are few branches of
knowledge from which he can not
draw in everyday life. In the natural
sciences the graduate of the highest
institutions of learning in the land will
find in the ordinary work of the farm
postgraduate course which will be
more practical and thorough than that
prescribed in the curriculum of any
of our schools. The introduction
to line of study in this
direction given at our schools
can be carried on indefinitely and to
decided advantage. A knowledge OF
entomology will assist the farmer in
determining among the insects which
surround him his friends and his
enemies, and being able to protect the
one and destroy the other may be OF
great value. The same is true in re-
gard to birds, beasts and reptiles. Is
is along this line that an education may
be put to a practical use. Intelligent
effort is always rewarded.-National

HERE AND THERE.

"A vegetable-headed man is one with
carrotty hair, reddish cheeks, turnup
nose and sage look.
Better let the hogs or sheep eat the
fallen fruit than to allow it to rot I'M
der the trees, as by this plan both the
stock and the trees will be benefited.
The watering trough is apt to be
neglected and become more or less foul

clean and the water pure.
"A hard row to hoe" evidently re-
fers to cotton row on sandy land in

Because you are through with your
harvester for this season is no reason
why it should be permitted to remain
where you used it last until another
crop has been planted and matured.
"A great many farmers fall, like the
Spectator, by biting off more than
he can chew" or 'wading beyond his
DEPTH" or planting more than he can
properly cultivate. All these aphorisms
mean the same thing.
Never neglect to repair your har-
ness or vehicles as soon as they need

unexpected moment good horse may

ment to feed and care for her so thar
she will be in trim all of the time. The
quality, as well as the quantity, of the
food is important, as she can not in
anywise furnish the nourishment un-
less she is first properly supplied with
the food.
Young pigs must commence to grow
as soon as they commence to nurse.
They are, of course, too young to eat
themselves, hence must be fed through
the sow. A good start secured while
they are young will make it much
easier matter to keep them growing,
and the easiest way of securing profit.
able hogs is by a quick growth, and if
quick growth and an early maturity
is secured it is very important that the
pigs be kept growing from the start.
By feeding the SOW literally with nour.
ishing food she will be able to furnish
sufficient feed to her pigs to keep them
growing right along, so that when the
change is made to something else they
will he in healthy, thrifty condition,
and will not suffer in any way by the
change.
For week after narrowing, as rule,
the feeding should be light, and then
the ration should be rapidly increased
until she is given all that she will eat
up clean each meal, and this must be
kept up until the pigs are weaned.
1t will be difficult, no matter
how well fed she may be, to keep
her from running down, and the liber-
| al feeding must then be kept up to
have her come in again. And then
| after she is bred, liberal feeding is
necessary so that she can properly
nourish her pigs and be in condition to
stand the drain of sucking another
| litter.
Feeding the SOW literally, both DUR
ing CESSATION and while sucking her
pigs, will help materially in making
| her pigs vigorous. There is no danger
of the pigs making too rapid growth.
In fact the feeding and management
| should be such as will secure the most
rapid growth. A good SOW will suclxle
her pigs an average of ten weeks and
this is fully one fourth of the time they
should be allowed to properly grow
for market, and as it is the most inn
portant stage, is very essential that
good treatment be given and this can
not well be done unless good treat
ment is given the sows.-Cor. Farm
