The Pea and the Dictionary.

Mr.. Robert Mills, of Chuluota, Fla,
in the last number of the AGRICULTuRIsT
emplores "Mister dictionary makers,
for the love of heaven and your fellow
men who are in the southern part of the
United States, don't deprive us Of the
cow peas, as a legume even in its def
nition."
If Mr.. Mills is still living please in
form him that the Century dictionary
defines a pea as "legume,' giving the
origin and history of the plant, and adds,

ical Asia and Africa, in cultivation ex-
tending into warm temperate climates.
The pods are sometimes two feet long
and are edible when green, as are the
seeds when dry This is an important
crop in the southern United States.
Trusting this will relieve the strain
on Mr.. Mills mind, am happy in 'love
to my fellowmen," and especially to
such pleasant writer as he, to assure
him that the COW pea as a sic gume" is
not threatened with extinction ''even in

$500 Worth of Hay.
Louisville. KY.

The Manatee Journal thus records the
success of two Manatee farmers with hay
making which is worthy of reproduction
inasmuch as it shows what can be done
by determined men in Florida. in the
matter of making hay product of the
soil hardly dreamed of as possible a few
years ago. The Journal says:
We were talking hay and corn to Mr.
Kennedy, of Terra Celia, recently. and he
informs us that Mr.. Howard and himself
have harvested this season at least thirty
tons Of hay. Now this would have cost
in bales at least $25 ton, and at the low
est local price it stands for 5000. Fur
Their Mr.. Kennedy informs us that this
hay not only grew on the land that pro-
vided last year s vegetable crop, but that
the thick sod being turned over by the
ploW, leaves the soil actually in better
shape than il was before. Messrs. How
ard and Kennedy contemplate the pur-
chase of baling machinery.
The same paper publishes commun-
ication from Mr.. r. H. Whitehead
which we also take pleasure in repro
ducing, as it shows the variety Of pro-
ducts, and profitable ones, too, that may
be produced on a small farm. Mr.
Whitehead writes:
A few weeks ago you published a
statement made by me which was re-
published by the leading agricultural
papers Of Our State, to the effect that
good corn crops could be made on our
hammock lands succeeding the same
season vegetable crops. In cOnfirma-
ton of my statement | want to tell your
readers what was accomplished by Mr..
Griffin, who came here last fall. He en-
gagged in vegetable culture and planted a
variety crop, but met with greatest sue
cess with his cabbages, realizing net
sales of $631 from one AMI three-quarter
acres. He planted some of his vegetable
land in corn, and gathered sixty bushels
of corn and 700 bundles of fodder. From
the same land he moved a good hay crop,
saving a plenty of hay for his own use. He
says he was little late planting his
corn, and if he had planted two weeks
earlier he would have realized twenty
five bushels to the acre. Mr.. Griffin,
besides this, has sold $40 worth of hay,
and has performed extra work, for which
he has been paid $40. He is an all-the-
year working, industrious farmer, and
does not idle four months of the year
after the vegetable crop is harvested, as
is the rule in this country. Let his ex-
ample be followed and hard times will
be averted.

took to ascertain whether the facts he claimed
were true or not.
Now regarding the money which we borrowed
wilhelm Lond NJ wish to have you clearly under
stand that never used your name as authority
or getting same nor did tell anyone that you
had authorized me to borrow same. did tell
them that they could charge the amount to you
and that could give you credit on account OF
advertising, then being carried on. We were then
under the impression that your advertisement
was running on order, but when we received
letter from you stating the contrary we wrote
Messrs. Campion, GOOdse & Co., that we would
nav the account and are expecting receipt
in every mail for me.
Now in reference to the three things you ask us
to do will say that if we find sufficient evidence
to warrant publishing any charges we will
do So AS to the second, We will have nothing to
do with it, and to the third if we find that the
charges are groundless we will so state the facts
to the shippers of the EthelwOd
In conclusion will say that the complaint made
was not against your returns as per catalogue
We have not for one moment entertained the
idea that you were not business man enough to
know that any such proceedings would not do
Very truly yours.

Was there not enough in Messrs. Shaw's
letter to warrant us in saying that we had
reasons to believe that everything was
not as straight as it should be, when we
knew that there were many growers who
a. did not get the advance? We have no
fault to find with Mr.. Goodsell's account
returns with the growers, but if he claims
! to have advanced the rs cents, and has
not it seems to us not to be exactly straight
If he does not act straight with parties
who had confidence enough in him to adj
vance ST., 900 to start an enterprise, could
we count on him always acting straight
with the orange growers of Florida? We
will let the people of Florida judge for
themselves. Our whole aim was to serve
the orange growers Of Florida and we
would not be doing our duty were we to
let the matter rest without showing just
how it stood.
Mr.. Goodsell has demanded an apology
from us and we tender him the above.
We wish to state here that Mr.. Good
sell has nothing to do with the manage
ment of Messrs CampiOn, GoOdsell Il Co.,
Nimited) of London, and that any fruit
trusted to their care will receive the best
attention possible We make this state
ment AS that firms name has been used
in the above correspondence and might
lead some to think that he was connected
with it's management.
In response to our letter nearly every
shipper either sent us his return sheet or
written statement and we find number
of which did not receive the advance and
also that two persons had paid back the
amount of shortage.

SUITABLE SEED
in time to plant for a fall crop and have
it mature before cold weather. There
is no doubt that potatoes could be raised
in Georgia, or Alabama, or Tennessee
that would mature good seed ripe enough
to plant by the first Of September Ii
we could plant from the GOTH of August
TO the 1st, of September there is no rea-
son why we should not have time to
raise full crop on muck land before
frosty weather. If that could not be
done there isanOther way. Buy the seed
in the North in the spring and keep
them in cold storage until July, then
ship by schooner to Florida and be ready
to plant August Goth. Potatoes not we'll
matured and dried down, decay soon in
our climate, and if planted little green
will surely rot before they will grow.
have tried it so often that know the re-
suit. l bought two barrels this season
that appeared to be ripe and the most OF
them had sprouted. | took pains in
skin side down and covered very shallow,
not over half inch deep, and still abouC
half of the seed planted rotted before
roots could form to support the sprout,
and many started but died before the
roots could get hold. But we have no
trouble in January or February with our
seed; | Judge the cause is the early
planted seed are too green, not mature.
Now while | urge planting, if suitable
seed can be procured, the crop is in
tended for home use. We have been
calculating too much on a Northern
market and let our own people suffer
because commission men quote potatoes
from S. to $40 per barrel. Last year
drummers swarmed around us and
showed us kilograms from St. Louis,
Chicago and Kansas City quoting from
S. to SO and we could have sold here at
home for So and 1926; but no, we wanted
Sc, 81 and So here. | sent nearly 200
barrels to st. Louis and Chicago and got
returns for 500 95, not enough to pay for
the barrels. That is why [ urge now
home sales I shall never consign one
package West again. If [ had sold at
home should have been 5000 better off.
We can plant by February LIST. or last of
January and find market at home for
all we can raise at 50 and So per barrel,
and if we get offered more let the shipper
have some but not all; our merchants
want some, and let them have them even
at less than shipper pays, for you can
RELY on the merchant and the shipper
you cannot.
There is no question about a spring
crop of potatoes they can be raised on
good hammock or muck land if properly
cared for, and at a profit, even il you
have to paw 81 or $3.50 per barrel for
seed, if you get the right kinds The
Halton Prize, or Minnie Rose, the Bur-
banks, the Hebrons, Bliss EARLY, EARLY
Ohio, the Early Rose, the Chilli Red
and the Western Red, are all good va
rieties to plant, and say plant, do
not be discouraged: keep at it, but look
to find home market if possible.
The trouble with spring cropis the po-
tatOes will not keep after digging. Do not
dig faster than you have orders to fill I'M
less YOU are able to put up cold storage.

Value OF the Drained Zuyder Zee.

In the year 1885 society was organ
lied in Holland to make plans for the
draining of the Zuyder Zee. IT now
officially reports that three-fourths of
the soil covered by these 900, 900 acres
of water is as fertile as surrounding
districts, and proposes a scheme of
drainage which will leave 800, 900 acres
in the center as lake, while the rest
will be redeemed at rate that will
annually render from 1000 to Is. 600
acres habita BILE. The cost of the en-
tire work is estimated at $40 900, COO
The largest enterprise of the same sort
hitherto carried out has been the drain
ing of the Harlem lake. which, after
thirty nine months of labor. added 49,
900 acres to the solid soil of Holland
When the Zuyder Zee was formed by
an humiliation. in the thirteenth CEN
fury, some So 0o0 lives are believed to
have been lost. and this fact gives an
idea of the profit which viii result from
its redemption. and Forest.
