THE RICE INDUSTRY.
Another and Rapidly Growing
Source of Wealth TO the
Southern States.

The coast country of southeast
Texas and southwest Louisiana has
assumed a new Importance since the
recent development of the rice in
dustry. The many streams, with their
waters but few feet below the gen
eral level of the vast prairies, afford
ed fine facilities for irrigation, the
great desideratum in profitable rice
farming. But as some of the i'm
mense centrifugal pumps in some of
the largest streams exhaust the water
faster than the SIRENS supply it, it
became evident that the acreage
irrigable from these sources
was necessarily limited. Then came
the discovery that s-inch bored wells,
$50 feet deep, would each supply 100
acres of rice with all the water re-
quired; also, the fact that gangs of
wells could be made and connected,
and all worked by one pump and en-
CINE. This solved the irrigation ques-
ton for about 100000 acres of land,
anu lHc result Is lnuI lnlS StcIlOD Oh
country is being bored full of holes,
with full assurance that either wa
ter or oil in paying quantities will be
secured. There is very little uncer-
tainty about the matter. If you bore
to water and don't like the taste of
it, go deeper and get gas; and if gas
is too light, go on downward and get
oil. You can bore yo';r hole and take
your choice. The result is, that rice
growing on the gulf coast has had
more rapid development than any
agricultural speciality ever had in any
country or in any age. The simple
f"r'" thrt SIS to $2j per acre, net
yield, is about the average, and that
40 ..~.ts ca. DE prepared and grown
to maturity by one man with team
and tools, makes this more profitable
to the grower than any other staple
crop.-TeXas Farm and Ranch.

The Georgia Legislature enacted a

With all the abuse that can be
heaped upon fat hen because she
does not lay, she brings more in the
market than any other kind of pcul-
try, except turkey, and at times the
difference in favor of the turkey is
very little.
AS consumers are willing to pay
good prices for fat hens, it is best 10
sell them as soon as they cease lay
ing, if in a very fat condition, as the
time required to get such hens to the
proper coalition for laying again may
be weeks, or even months.
Farmers sometimes in planning
work for the season do not make suf-
fcient allowance for wet weather, and
other unavoidable causes of delay.
The safe plan is to hedge against
such contingencies by commencing
early and keeping stadily at it as long
as conditions permit.

BEST SPRING MEDICINE.
The Palm Given to DR.. Greene's
Nervura.
That Grand Jury, tho People, Have 50
Decided.
Used by Hundreds of Thousands In Spring
as a Blood Medicine.

DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy is indeed "the Worlds
Great Spring Medicine" 1t has come
to be recognized by almost everybody
as the best possible spring medicine
TO take, and hundreds of thousands
of our people use it during the Try
ing spring months, to tone up anew
the relaxed nerves, and re-invigorate
and enrich the blood.
A spring medicine is necessity if
one wishes to keep in perfect health
and vigor during the changes from
winter to summer. This grand spring
tonic, this perfect spring medicine,
DIR. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, is exactly what the system
needs at this season. 1t not only
purifies, but makes rich, red blood; it
not only strengthens and invigorates
the nervous system, but re-energizes
and revitalizes the nerves by feeding
them with renewed nerve force and
power. 1t is not only an aid to diges-
ton, but it creates regular, natural
and healthy action of the bowels, liv-
err, kidneys, which in the spring are
always sluggish and inactive.
In fact, it is just what people need
to make themwell and keep them well
during these months, so threatening
tothehealth of all, and when it is con-
sidered that DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy is made en-
tirely from pure, health-giving vege-
table remedies, and that people give
it more testimonials of cure than any
other remedy on earth, no one can
doubt that it is the very best spring
remedy for everybody to use.
Mr.. Gustave Lelbach, of 1877 First
St., Jersey City. N. j.. says:-

have for years been endeavoring to
learn why this all important diner
ence, and, simple as the thing seems
to be, it took close observation TO
solve the puzzle. The result | arrived
at is this: Turnip-shaped potatoes
put in the seed bed the way they
grew, and covered verw slightly with
earth, will make on the upper side
short, thick, stocky sets, usually des-
titute of all roots. Please remember
/ emphasize the fact that only those
sets coming from the top are the
ones to be desired; those from the
side or the bottom are quite differ
ent, and whilst by no means worth
less, still, other things being equal,
produce only about one-half what the
frst-named ones will. But, in order
to have first-class article, it would
undoubtedly be best to cut off the
tap root and peel off the lower rind
as well as that on the sides. 1t is true
this latter / have not tested, but in
asmuch as potatoes split lengthwise
do their part producing sets, the
mere peeling of the skin could not
possibly have any injurious effects. In
other words, therefore, if you select
turnip-shaped seed potatoes, cut OF
the tap root and peel off the sides
and bottoms, put them into the seed
bed as they grew and cover very
slightly with loose soil, you will easily
double your crop.-Cor. Farmers
