CORN PROFITABLE.

The acreage planted in corn in this
section this year, says an Orange county
correspondent, is surprising to the old
settlers as we'll as to the newcomers. A
ride through the country any dlrec-
tion will take one past field after field of
corn, standing well on the ground, look
ing vigorous, with dark, rich green color,
and giving promise of an abundant yield
1t has for years been claimed that corn
could not be profitably grown here. 1t
is true that the yield of sixty to eighty
bushels to the acre, which is often Sc
cured on the Western prairies, cannot be
hoped for here; but there it often hap
pens that the grain when produced sells
at 10 to % cents per bushel, whrle here it
as oft. demands rs cents to 81 per
bushel. This season has demonstrated
that it is possible for every farmer to
grow his own corn, and far cheaper to do
it than to buy it from the West. There
will be little corn or hay shipped into
Orange county this year. and it is prob
able that each succeeding year hereafter
will see such shipments falling off in

The leaves are pulled from the stalk
as soon as the lower blades begin to fire,
that is, turn yellow. They are gathered
in small whisrs and hung on the ears of
corn. After they have remained there
a day or two and are we'll cured they
are gathered together and put
in larger bundles, the farmer
attempting to make each bundle average
three or four pounds. Corn fodder is
greatly relished by stock and experience
carefully conducted shows that the
weight and quality of grain is in no way
injured by pulling the leaves from the
stalks. Two or three days is sufficiently
long for the fodder to remain in the sun,
but if it is not convenient to gather it
into the barn at this time it will not be
injured by remaining longer, although
care must be taken not to allow it to get
wet.

vancing in fine form. Increased acreage is
quite the rule and owing to the depressed
condition of the sugar industry there
has been a renewal of planting in the
older parishes along the Mississippi river.
In the prairie region several large irri.
eating canals have been opened this as
surfing water supply thereby reducing
the risks of culture to minimum. All
other Gulf states are giving rice .more
attention, the most prominent being
Texas; its reports show the crop will be
considerably in excess of local require
ments and add quite per cent to the
general supply.

Talmadge's Rice Bulletin.

We take the following on the rice crop
of the present year from Messrs. Dan
Talmadges' Sons Bulletin No. l, New
York, May 18th, 1895.
Great care has been exercised in the
selection of lands and seed and high
average quality, therefore promised.
With crop made on planters own re-
sources more than former independence
is likely to be exercised in marketing.
Prices realized on last crop were highly
satisfactory, hence, planters encouraged
to greatly extend operations. There is
also increased disposition toward diver
sity of crops and the culture is being en-
tered into by cotton and sugar planters.
Experiments demonstrate that rice is
quite as good for feeding purposes as
corn and oats. Detailed reports from
states along the Atlantic coast show that
the crop is mainly in and making good
progress.
In Louisiana the season has been more
than usually favorable and crop is adj

Spanish Peanuts.

Bulletin %, of the Louisiana station
contains the following in regard to Span
ish peanuts:
Spanish peanuts, a special favorite with
the small farmers of North Louisiana,
where the vines, with the adherent
been tried to limited extent. . In a
liggt, loamy or sandy soil, the above
practice is easily executed, the light
soil permitting the easy removal of vines
and pods by pulling with the hands or
pricing with the fork. This plant is
very valuable as food, and is one of
the best renovators of soils known. Sew
eral thousand acres are now grown in
the hill section of this state, and with a
strong tendency to a larger increase in
&C cage annually.
In heavy loans or clay soils the pc Is
are not easily removed with the vines:
at least so per cent are ruptured and
left in the ground. Exclusive Of the
quantity left in the earth, our yield was
at the rate of 4, 422 pounds of fresh nuts
per acre. Those left in the ground
could easily be removed by hogs, and
the latter be greatly benefited by the
act. This plant is worthy of very ex-
tended cultivation, either as a general
forage crop, a hog crop or a renovator of
the soil.
The large White and Virginia pea
nuts were also grown with excellent
results.
The African ground pea, another crop
specially adapted to the hog, has hereto
fore resisted our efforts to successfully
grow it, This year each plant repro
duced seed one hundredfold.
The Chufa completes our list of hog
crops. 1t thrives we'll on our soils, and
wherever hogs are grown should have
small area devoted to it.

Bagging Grapes.

The practice of inclosing grapes in
paper bags to preserve them in good
condition, says Gardening, from being
something of an experiment or for
amateurs to practice, has now become
universal. The one who grows for
market knows now as well as the anna
teur does that it pays to do it. 1t was
necessity, to preserve the bushes from
the black rot, which first led to the use
of paper bags. Since their use so much
better are the punches in every way,
that fruit growers are now thankful
that they were driven to use bag.
The black rot is caused by fungus
which floats in the air and finds in the
grape a suitable host. 1t settles on the
berries, develops and causes them to rot
1t requires but the slightest covering to
keep out these fungus spores, so that the
thinnest kind of paper bag does. In fact
some are not particular that the grape
bunch be wholly inclosed. They believe
that as the spores are mostly descending
when they reach the grape canopy. as
it were, is enough, but the best growers
contend, and wisely, too, that it is better
to cover the whole bunch, and it is easier
done than the other way would be.
Before bagging was thought of bees
were terrible torment to the vineyards;
as soon as grapes commenced to color,
the busy insects found them out, and
soon the punches disappeared, and then
sparrows pecked the berries to pieces
causing great loss. The bag remedies
all these evils, and besides this preserves
the bloom. And keeping off all dust
and dirt makes the fruit far more pre-
sentable than before.
Those who have seen hot-house grapes,
which are grown, protected from wind,
rain, dust, ETC., and have admired their
clean, tempting appearance, will know
how bagged grapes look when exposed
to view; with every berry perfect they
are delight TO look on. 1t is no wonder
that those who grow them for market
say they get better prices for such
punches than they get for others. Have
bags put on your punches at once.

This year have planted good sized patch O,

ready to plant. must confess, however, that in
the past have not had very good luck with pea
nuts, except perhaps as forage plant. The

trouble by the hay. This year, however. want
some nuts and write to ask if you can tell me
how to make them grow. E. A B.
We are inclined to think that the
trouble with your vines has been the
stable manure. The peanut is legu-
minous plant and does not require the
application of a heterogeneous fertilizer
like stable manure. In fact, manure of
this kind is detrimental inasmuch as it
caused all vine and no nuts. Lime is an
fore the seed are planted the land should
be we'll lined. AS your nuts are already
planted you might make an application
of we'll Stacked lime, placing it a few
inches from the plant and working it into
the ground we'll. Potash and phosphoric
acid are the other important elements
necessary, and a mixture containing
about ten per cent of phosphoric acid
and fifteen per cent of potash applied at
the rate of six or seven hundred pounds
per acre is recommended.

Editor Florida AgricuIturist:

have read Mr.. Cores article in your last
issue on the castor bean, also numerous articles
published recently in the AGRICULTURIsT on this
bean as possible profitable crop for Florida.
Will you tell me what is about the average yield
in other sections where the bean is extensively
grown, and bout what is the market price?
J. M. P.
In Illinois and Tennessee where the
bean is extensively cultivated the yield
of the cleaned bean is from twenty-five
to thirty-five bushels per acre, according
to the fertility Of the land and the Guilt
walton, and the market price ranges
from 81. so to SO per bushel.

sense OF Taste In Insects.

The entomologists have detected and
duly noted singular development OF
the sense of taste in insects of the but
terf1y family. The larvae of butterflies
and moths all eat foods which are not
adapted to the wants and tastes of the
perfect insect, and which, in some in
stances, is positively obnoxious to the
fully developed creature. Take, for an
instance, the horrid 'hog nosed cater
pillar" which lives ON the leaves of
the priokly ash and also makes life bur
densome to the orange grower. Its par
ents are Mr.. and Mrs. Papilio Cres-
phontes of the order Lepidoptera, fam
lily Papilionide, and are the largest and
most beautiful butterflies found in the
latitude of Missouri. The full grown
insect of this species will not touch the
leaves Of either of the trees mentioned
above, but on them it deposits eggs, and
when these hatch the substance of the
leaves furnish the proper food for the
larvae. Are we to infer from this curl
Gus habit that the female butterfly of
this species remembers her early exist
ence, and from that argues that prickly
ash and orange leaves are the proper
food for her young, or are we to say
that "instinot" guides her~to proper
selection of food for her progeny? Is it
not a fact that we attribute things to
instinct" because we are ignorant
that is to say, because we do not know
where instinct leaves off and reason
