The holidays are approaching
at the rate of a day every twenty
four hours; and this is the month
when children fix their attention
on literature in which Santa
Claus takes leading part, and
wives and daughters allow theirs
to dwell on the old gentleman's
purse. An old lady was once
asked the age when girls gave
up playing with dolls and the
answer came back "When they
have children of their own"
So it is about Santa Claus; chill
dren give him up as the myth
cal when they are old enough to
realize a flesh and blood Santa
Claus in their father. If it hap
pens to be girl she will cling
to the old gentleman until she
happens to win a Santa Claus
who will be her individual pro-
perty.
1t is with these flesh and
blood Santa Claus that we wish
to whisper. On the Australia
which arrived last week, there
were several large cases of solid
silver ware for us. In turn we
will dispose of it to Santa Claus.
We will have no difficulty in
doing this as the assortment is
from four Of the largest and best
factories in the United States.

view the goods later.

The chufa is so much like the nut
grass in appearance, and so closely re-
lated to it in fact. as to create prejudice
at first sight. But it has undoubted
merits as a soil improver and as a good
crop for hogs. A correspondent of the
Oviedo Gazette makes the following
quotation from Home and Farm, and
adds his own ex perience, as follows:
"In my experience chufas are by far
the best and cheapest feed for hogs we
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-03-18

have in the South. They have all the
fattening properties of corn, and hogs
don't tire of them as of corn, proving
that they are complete ration. The
fat taken ON from chufas is equally as
solid as that from corn. They will grow
in almost any soil, but the best is rich
sandy loan. Cultivate the same as corn
rows, two to two and one-half feet apart,
planting early. The best way to get a
good yield is by planting them in bed
and then draw and plant same as potato
draws. They need no harvesting, keep
ing perfectly the severest winter in the
ground. Sufficient hay can be gathered
from them to more than pay for the
cultivation, as they can be grazed all
summer without apparent injury. With
us they yield from four hundred to five
hundred bushels per acre, according to
the fertility of the SOIL"
We can say from experience that our
pine land is naturally adapted to chufas,
the yield being very large. Several
years ago the writer planted a small
place-about 5Ox1OO feet in chufas.
Early in the fall gap was made in the
fence and seven razor back pigs, about
three months old, were allowed to go in
and out at will. When they had
finished roofing 1t out, about Christmas,
and the pigs were about six months old,
they were as large as the ordinary year
old razor back, and tat enough for pork.
The next year Experimental on cutting
the grass for hay, cutting some and
leaving some. When harvesting time
came, no difference could be told in the
yield of the rows where the grass had
been cut and where it was not.

Corn Insect Pests.

The Mississippi experiment statlon
has published bulletin On insects in
furious to corn. The publication is In
tended to be used as reference during
the season, and also to awaken some
farmers to see the advantage CT fall
blowing for the destruction of insects
From this bulletin we extract the fol
lowing:
The reader will perhaps have noticed
that under the head of remedies fol-
nearly all the foregoing insects, fall
blowing in one way or another has been
mentioned We wish here to call spec
ial attention to this point. In this
State and throughout many localities OF
the State, land washes considerably,
and all possible means should be taken
to prevent this by hillside bitches and
the like. With some land it would not
be advisable to pillow in the fall, owing
to danger of washing, but in the case OF
sod land or land which has been allowed
to be grown over with grass, it will pa y
to break up the sod in the fall, as il
will leave the soil in better condition
for working early in the spring. Fully
three fourths Of our injurious insects
spend part of their lives upon or with
in the ground, and autumn is the best
time for their destruction. By fall
blowing the Larvae and pur@ are ex-
posed upon the surface, where they are
picked up by the birds or killed during
the winter by sudden changes of the
weather. Many larvae will also die
during the winter from lack of food,
and insects which pass the winter in
the ground as pup@ are killed by the
breaking up of the compact earth sur
rounding them. Recent Investigations
rega riding the food of birds show that
these do immense good in destroying
larvae and pup@ during the winter; Sod
land contains many insects and the
case of the Llgyrus beetle, already
mentioned, serves as an illustration of
the fact that these insects will work
upon other insects aside from grass if
the Land is not plowed until spring.
"When corn is laid by too early, the
land becomes covered with thick
growth of crab grass and weeds, form
ing suitable place for many insects to
deposit their eggs. On the Station
Farm 1t is our practice to sow COW peas
between the rows of corn when the
latter is laid by. This method is prac.
ticed principally on account of the effect
Of the peas as a fertilizer: but at the
same time, the method has many advan.
tages from an chronological point Of
view, as the peas attract less insects thar
than would a miscellaneous assortment
weeds and grasses.
"Owing to the danger of washing
when land is plowed in the fall mucl
better farm practice than blowing con
sists in the breaking up of sod and othel
lands during the summer, and planting
cow peas. either broadcast or in rows t.
be cultivated This meth cd practically
accomplShes the same results as fal
blowing, so far as regards the insects
and considering the great fertilizine
value Of the peas, the method cannot be
too strongly recommended.
