Grape Culture in North Carolina

Grape Culture in North Carolina
North Carolina is the natural home
of the grape. The early English
navigatOrs reported that the shores
of the CarOllnas were covered with
vines, and the clusters of grapes
overhung the still waters of inlets
and sounds. The beautiful and de
liciOus Catawbas were first found
growing along the banks of the
Western Carolina river Ofthat name,
the sweet ScuppernOng is a native OF
the coast country; grapes grow pro
fusely in every portion OF the State
and grape diseases and pests are
less prevalent than in Northern grape
regions. North Carolina ought &c
be- the leading grape growing State
of the Union; yet the deplorable fact
remains that her farmers do not grow
enough grapes for the home market
Grapes from Delaware are selling il
our markets today, and soon the
famous keuka grapes from centra
New York will he perhaps the only
grapes on sale at the fruit st0re
and groceries. This ought not t.
be the ease. North Carolina farm
ers can produce enough grapes t,
supply every market in the United
States; they at least ought to furnish
enough of this tOOthsOmc fruit {,
supply the home markets i'm album
dance. Grape culture is subjec
worthy Of the closest attention b,
our farmers.

The crop has been made. Now
what of its size and its qualltyf In

ly upon such information as we
can obtain from general observs-
tions, from tobacconists who have
travelled the territory and from local

no other way. official figures being
unattainable.
The concensus of opinions is that
he yield is light. The acreage was
reduced to begin with, aud the sea

known IN many years. The bright
crop of The South is varlously est.
mated at from % to 33 per cent.
short of an average. Probably the
latter figure is more nearly correct.
The quality in inferior, here will be
some good stock, of course, but the
proportion will be less than usual
The dark crop of Virginia Is also
short and poor.
This is briefly the situation. The
markets have no expectations of do

is being fold the receipts are lighter

Timely Advice Given to Southern Farm
Prices.

Cotton Ia again king In the ex-
port record OF the United States.
Ten cent cotton in 1900 brings 1t
into first place. The seven months
ending with July, 1900, show an ex-
por tatlon Of cotton amounting to
$l42,j76,O97, while of breadstuffs.
which include wheat, corn, oats,
barley, rye. etc, the expectation

The planters of the South have 1t
In their power to keep cotton king,
and the way to do this is not by an
inc rease In the acreage planted in
cotton, for ten cent cotton comes
from yield Of less than ten mill
lion bales. and II twelve or thirteen
million bales are produced next
year I've or six cent cotton will be
the result, and twelve million bales
will bring to the growers probably
a hundred million dollars less mon
ey than would ten millions.
The true and easy way to hold on
to that which is good is to increase
the small grain fields, grow more
otatoes, peas and sorghum, give
greater attention to the hogs and
cattle and raise greater mum Der
Of pounds of cotton on q fewer num-
Der Of acres.
Ifinstead Of this plan Of campaign
the cotton growers should put all
their time, money and lands into
increasing the cotton acreage, we
may look for an enormous OverprO-
duction Of cotton and the dreaded
cents pound price, making it de-
throned king, which will take long
years to raise to it's rightful posi-
ton.
The crop now being marketed
will bring at present prices about
two hundred million dollars more
to the raisers than that of two
years ago, which was two million
bales larger. This money has gone
or will go into the pockets Of the
producers, and not to the specula
tors or spinners, and means much
in the way OF increased comfort tc
the Southern farmers who, after q
long time, are receiving fair re-
ward for their hard labor. This
enormous increase in wealth ID
hard to grasp, but the results will
be seen in improved houses, barns
roads, schools and churches, anc
in an increased activity such as nj
farming community has ever en-
joyed.
