SOUTHERN AGRICULTURE.

An Interesting and Valuable Contribu-
tion to the Subject:
In the superb volume, ''The Empire
of the South" published by and pre-
pared under the supervision of the
Southern Railway, appears a most in
teresting chapter upon agriculture in
the South. Mr.. Frank Presbury, the
author Of the book, is recognized au,
thority on such matters, and the vol
ume, which is to have large distribu-
tion, will be productive of much good
to the South. We quote from the ar
ticle the following:
To the man of limited means no Sec
ton holds forth such favorable induce
ments as the South. Lands are low in
price and transportation facilities are
of the best ALI the grain and vegetable
products that will grow in the West
grow much more aburdantly in the
South, and there is a wide range Of
products that are indigenous to the
South that can only be raised there
and cannLt be transplanted to the
higher latitudes. Rates of living are
cheaper than in any other section, be.
cause OF the mild climate, requiring
less fuel, and the greater variety of
products available for supplying the
necessities of the family. OF the fami-
lies owning farms, the percentage own
sge incumbran2e and the average in
terest charge are shown in the follow
ing table for the whole country and for
several Southern States:

AGRICULTURE.
IS YOUR CELLAR WELL sroRRD7

Do not think, because you had q
profitable crop of early peas, beans,
lettuce and radishes. or potatoes for
that matter, that your garden is no
longer in debt. On the contrary it
owed you for the plant food given, de.
licious vegetables from May until De-
cember, and sufficient stored away for
winter use. It is your fault and not
that of the garden if you do not have
them; most vegetables that will ma
ture IN six weeks from sowing time,
wilt mature as we'll in August and Sep.
tember as in May and June, while
many, such as turnips, celsry and cab
bege, make their best growths in Oc-
tober. Keep up a succession; the mo-
ment one crop ia out of the way, re
place it with another. If your vege
table cellar is empty now, this is q
good time to lay by for ncx5 season.
