Cabbage wormt.

There are several species of leaf eat-
ing caterpillars which attack the cab
bage, bat the remedy for all Of them is
the same, according to Entomologist
Weed, who writes as follows to South
ern Cultivator:
When the cabbaSes are young and be-
fore they have formed heads, paris green
should be applied, and after they have
formed heads pyrethrum should be used
There is no danger whatever III the ap-
plication of paris green to cabbage plants
If properly applied. Don't put it on
after tho heads have formed, and don t
put it on too thick
In tho application Of an insecticid0
care should be taken to have it evenly
distributed rather than little here and
Il little there, as will sometimes be- done
by IL careless person. Tho insecticides
can be applied either dry or mixed with
water, but the dry form is perhaps the
most convenient, and when this is done
the green can be diluted with fully three
fourths flour or lime to advantage. AS
to the dry poison busters, some sort of
bellows is needed, several styles of which
can be purchased of seed dealers.

Beet Sugar and Beet Culture.

1t would DO well for the farmers and
capitalists of Georgia to turn their at
tention TO the raising of the sugar beet
and the manufacture of sugar. This is n
new industry in this country, but it has
already proved profitable to farmers and
to manufacturers alike and HIS ill.,
creased at a tremendous rate within the
last few years. The manufacturing Of su-
gar from beets has long been u profta-
bio industry in European countries, uu.
der far less favorable conditions than
exist in the United States. 1t has proved
to farmers and manufacturers alike an
abundant source of revenue. Southern

BANANA CULTURE.
A. Conducted on tho Southeast Coast OF
Florida, South OF the 2Sth Parallel.


There is belief, aud it seeins to be
we'll founded, that tho banana cannot
be successfully raised in Florida above
the twenty eighth parallel. This state
ment is made by Floridian, who writes
as follows Of banana culture on the
southwest coast of Florida in Tho South
ern Cultivator:
The banana plant is Of easy culture
and if killed to tho ground by II severe
freeze, new and strong suckers soon ap
pear from tho roots and in some cases
will fruit tho same year. 1t is found
cultivated, therefore, i'll many places
where fruit is not expected oftener then
once in every four or five years. tSst
banana plants that arc i'll healthy cdlf
ton will stand cold us low us 2FS e.
greos for few hours without any .ur-
Their injury thnn the loss of leaves.
The plant fiourishcs and fruits best in
very moist, rich soil, but will not en-
dure standing water about the roots.
They may be cultivated, however, on
high, dry land of almost any descrip-
ton, though with less success. The
best location for n banana patch is Oh
the banks sloping down to pond lake
or bay head. - The spongy nature Of
the soil in such u location agrees per-
fectly with tho roots, provided they are
not planted far enough down to be in
standing water
Methods of cultivation are diverse,
some being in favor Of deep, continuous
mulching, others with cultivation like
corn. Still others set the plant in a hole
two feet deep, when doing the original
planting. Location and soil, however,
account in great degree for these diff
fcrences in mode of cultivation. The
growers Of tho lower keys" along the
extreme southern conSt produce fine re.
suits with no cultivation whatever ex-
cept an occasional piling of weeds around
tho plants. Excellent results usually
follow heavy and often renewed mulch
ing.
