Grasses For the Snnth.

Now that the cultivation of grasses is
yearly assuming more and more impor.
lance in the south, some points on this
subject from the Mississippi station are
worthy of being more generally known.
There is no one forage plant that COZ
tinues an active growth through the
year. For this reason it is said mix.
ture of two or three kinds will usually
prove better than will either one when
planted alone, and when possible one
plant in the mixture should belong to the
clover family.
No one, two or three varieties will
succeed best in all parts of the state, and
the choice for each farm must depend
on local conditions. Most of the true
grasses are affected more by moisture
than by other differences in the soil,
while most of the Clovers are affected
more by the amount of lime.
For general cultivation Bermuda, les
peieza, meLIotus, red clover and John
son grass are regarded as the five best
varieties f0e that state and in the order
named. For hay alone, Bermuda, les.
pedeza aud, johnson grass are the best,
while for pasture nothing has been found
better thgp Bermuda grass, orchard

The expense to which some of these
fanciers go TO crafty their taste for rare
flowers is very great. The orchid hunt
er's adventures in the jungles of Asia
are as thrilling as those of the man who
goes to shoot tigers and lions and ele-
plants. Some of the commercial grow
ers expend large sums and search the
ends of the earth for rarities in orna-
mental shrubs. The tree ferns, of which
picture is given here, were brought at
heavy expense from Australia, where
they had been growing in the wilderness
for fully 700 or 800 years before they
were taken up and brought on a three
months journey half way round the
world to be replanted under glass on the
slope of the Orange mountains.

PROFIT IN FLOWERS.
AsACoMMeRCIAL PURSUIT FLORIcUL-
TURE is INCREASING RAPIDLY.

Quality of Blooms and Standard of Taste
Constantly Rising In A Amortization Many
Horticulture Has Been Certain Road to
Fortune-InterestingF Figures.
The extent and significance of the
growth of Horticulture as a business in
the United States during the past few
years is but dimly apprehended by most
people. 1t is fully comprehended only by
the large growers of flowers, who, in the
pursuit of this occupation, have reaped
the double rewards of solid financial sue
cess and the privilege of passing their
time amid the most beautiful products
of inanimate nature.
1t were useless to try to accurately
measure the present extent of this bust
ness, for according to President Manda
of the New York Florists club and 9TH
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1894-01-27

PIMA duu OLIItI ClIIeS SIatu at the nBdu.
But it is undoubtedly true that the men
who have gone into the commercial
growing of flowers and trees and shrubs
have contributed the strongest influence
toward this change for the better in
the popular taste. In many instances
the florists of today are men of culture
and education, and their daily familiarity
with the beautiful products of their la
bors tends to constantly improve their
artistic perceptions.
If the raising of flowers were not
most profitable occupation, such men
could not afford to engage in it, and, "a
a matter of fact, Horticulture has long
been one of the surest avenues to the
rapid acquisition of wealth. Several of
the notable fortunes of the country have
been won through its prosecution, nota-
bly, at Rochester, for years famous as the
Flower City after the Minneapolis mills
had destroyed its right to its old time
title of the Flour City. The cultivation
of flowers in the suburbs of the great
cities of New York. Philadelphia, Chi
cago, Boston, etc. in great prOfusion,
is, however, a growth of the past 20
years. In the vicinity of New York es-
peciallv is proportions have now be-
come enormous, and !aeTe is region in
the Orange mountains of New Jersey, 90
miles inland, where flower growing is
by all odds the leading industry of sew
eral towns. Roses, chrysanthemums,
orchids, carnations and violets are the
specialties there, and so advantageously
placed by Dame Nature are the sunlit
southern slopes of the hills that the
blooms produced are of extraordinary
size and rare beauty.
1t is estimated by Mr.. Manda, whom !
have before quoted in this article, that
the various greenhouses between Morris
town and Orange, on the slopes of the
Orange mountains, are rooted with
about 100 acres of glass, and some idea
of the extent of the business done may
be obtained from the fact that during
the rose season, which lasts from Oct.
TO May 1, the daily shipment of buds
averaged last year not less than 10000.
Horticulture for profit in that locality
grew ont of the success that attended
the efforts of the gardeners employed by
a number of New York business men
who found homes on the mountain side,
and one of the most extensive establish
ments, devoted largely to chrysauthe.
NUNS and orchids, has been built up
around a nucleus formed by the private
greenhouse of New York millionaire.
Many of the cut flowers furnished to New
York are raised by growers in many out
lying towns, and this is also true of ev-
cry big city. The lily of the valley, so
popular this year, is almost entirely the
product of small establishments.
Some of the stories of the rapid max
ing of money by men who have under
taken the cultivation and sale of flowers
are veritabla romances of business sue
cess. Here is one:
In the spring of 1892 a business man of
70, who was located in small town in
Ohio, was obliged, by reason of the
failing strength that comes with old age
to go to his physician for advice. The
man of medicine looked his prospective
patient over and told him that it was not

flock of geese makes no small addition
to the income of the farm. Not only
are geese valuable for their flesh, but
their down and feathers represent a fair
money value. Practically the farmer
has but two varieties to select from, the
Toulouse and Embden, if the best meat
producers is to be the rule for selection
of his stock. William Rankin of Massa-
chusetts, who has had 80 years expert
ence in keeping geese, has been quite
successful with two crosses, those made
by mating an African gander and Emb-
den geese and then crossing the young
geese with pure African gander. The
two varieties of China, brown and white,
although hardy, are not large enough
and do not make pounds enough of flesh
for the early market.
The TOulOuses head the list as susCepti-
bic to greatest growth for extra care
They are good layers, and their heavy
bodies admit of their being confined by
low fence. The Embden, or Bremen,
although not quite 50, large as the Tou-
louise, have the advantage of being pure
white. Their meat is white and deli
cate. They yield an abundance Of
valuable feathers, all the more desirable
on account of being white. Either the
Toulouse or the Embden will be profita-

pills or powders that were needed, but
some pleasant occupation for the hours
not devoted to business, winding up his
talk by advising him to build and him
self attend to small greenhouse. The
advice was accepted, and in a very short
time the business man began to see that
it was good. His strength returned: his
sleep came back; his interest in his
greenhouse grew. As it grew he took up
the study of botany. One day he was
advised to make a shipment to Chicago
of some fine roses that he had grown I'M
der his glass. Their sale was instant
upon their arrival at the lake metropo-
lis, and in a short time the orders outran
the supply. Then more greenhouses were
built, trained gardener was engaged,
and last year, when the old gentleman.
whose life had been prolonged to so years
by his new found occupation, died, his
greenhouses numbered eight. and the an
nual net income therefrOm had grown 20
between So, 600 and 81 200. Many prOmi-
nent men of the day, who have not cared
to turn their love for flowers to CONNER
cial advantage, have retained their health
and vigor by hours daily spent among ia
vorite plants, conspicuous examples being
Charles A. Dana and the late Jay Gould.
The flower shows of these days have
come to be among the leading events Of
the social season in all the large cities,
and those held this fall in New YOrE.
Chicago and elsewhere have not been
less attractive or well attended than
their predecessors, Notwithstanding the
financial depression Of the present year.

bic, with proper handling, yielding as
they do two crops a year, one of mar
ketable goslings and another of feathers.
The feathers are plucked three times a
year-in July, in October and in Deem
Der. The popular belief is that the feath-
ers of lean geese are better than those of
fat ones, and those Of living geese better
than those of dead ones The feathers
are plucbed in July from the young
geese. and the down from under the bel
ly, wings and neck. The feathers, though
from a living goose, not being come to
maturity, are inferior to those plucked
in October, which, being taken at the
season when they would naturally fall
off, are in perfection. The feathers
again in December, being taken from a
dead fowl, are inferior to those procured
in July. On this principle it is evident
that the sooner the goose is plucked aft
er it is killed the better.
