A SUGAR CANE CROP.
An ltemizcd Account From Planting to

An ltemizcd Account From Planting to
Harvesting by u Louisiana Planter.
A Louisiana correspondent of South
ern Cultivator furnishes this account of
his experience in planting sugar cane.
1t refers to his last crop of 40 acres. He
says:
AS all the cane from small farms is
now sold to the central mills, it has to
DO hauled to the railroad and loaded in
cars by the planter. The train takes
the loaded cars out every morning and
puts in empty ones. The mill pays
1920 per ton net on board cars, pay
ment weekly. The planter pays rs
cents per day to fieldhands from spring
until crop is laid by in July. For har-
yesting and planting we pay 81 .25 per
day without board.
