Re Grass.

One of our friends has requested
that we republish an article that ap-
pe&red about two years ago on Res
cue Grass" We take pleasure in
complying with this request.
Rescue Grass is probably the finest
for winter grazing and the most pro-
life in southern ATTITUDES. It re-
quires a rich, loamy SOIL and comes
up in September, growing rapidly dur
ing even the coolest winter. 1t affords
a rich pasturage of the most succu-
lent stems and leaves from December
to May /, or it may be moved for
hay two or three times during April
and May and then allowed to mature
crop of seed, which in gathering
will shatteF, or leave enough seed on
the ground to reseed the land, so that
one sowing, if properly treated, will
suffice.
After moving two or three times,
from 100 to $50 bushels of seed may
be made on an acre. The seed may
be sown from June to February, but
to get the best results it should be
sown in June, when peas are sown for
forage.
There are some peculiarities about
this grass seed. 1t will not terminate
in summer. The colder the weather
In winter, the faster it grows, unless
the stems have commenced jointing,
when a freeze will kill it down, only
to come out again, however, greatly
increased in thickness. When not
moved, the grass grows slowly, but
when it is moved or grazed upon, the
growth is fastened. The plots upon
which the grass has been sown can
be broken up from June 1 to Is, fertil-
lied and sown in peas, or planted in
corn and field beans. BY this meth
cd the grass will not only be i'm
proved, but splendid crops of peavine
hay or of corn and beans can be made
The seed that are left on the ground
in May will lie dormant until the sool
nights in September.
The seed are quoted by seed men at
rs cents per pound, but about 100
pounds may be obtained from DR.. A.
M. Winn & Son, OF Lawrenceville, Ca.
at 10 cents per pound, or II cents a
pound, If as much as 10 pounds are
bought; also $50 pounds can be obtain
ed from Mr.. j. I. Baxter, of Suwannee,
Ca, at the same price. The forego-
Ing information is furnished largely
by Mr.. j. I. Baxter, who has success-

on Rates Of Charge for Transporting
Growth of the Industry" includes
what it properly styles the justly re-
nowned Georgia peaches. There is
no limit to the growth of the trucking
business, and its profits are bound to
increase from year to year. Although
the western end of Long Island is so
occupied by this industry as to have
the appearance of great truck farm,
yet nearly all its products are con-
sumed by the millions OF people with
in the radius Of a few miles. The
great cities of New York AMI Phila-
delphia not only furnish markets for
the truck farms in their vicinity, but
also purchase largely from the market
gardens of the south. In fact, New
York city is probably, says the bull
letin, the greatest market in the Unit
ed States for the trucking districts Of
the south.
A proper fertilization of the soil is
one of the most essential conditions
for success in truck gardening. Lands
so rich as to require no fertilization
are rarely found. Some crops re-
quire a great deal more fertilization
than others. According to the bull
letin from which We have already
quoted, the cost of fertilizer per acre
for leading varieties of vegetables in
the Savannah trucking district, which
embraces the entire coast country OF
Georgia. is as follows: Asparagus,
$25; beets, SIG; string beans, So; cab
bage, S22; cucumbers, $40; kale, $22;
watermelons, So; peas, SIP; irish pota-
toes, $25; sweet potatoes, SIS; spin
mach, $15; tomatoes, 500.
We have the authority of the United
States Department of Agriculture for
the statement that probably the fin
est trucking country in the wrold is
located on the Atlantic coast from
Norfolk Va, to southern Florida"
embracing the entire Georgia coast
The best soil for trucking is one in
which there is more sand than clay,
because this kind OF soil retains less
water warns UP more rapidly and
promotes a quick growth of the crop
turing winter and spring.
Many of our farms have more or less
land of this type, which will bring its
largest profit when devoted to truck
gardening.

Sugar Cane.

Already in a large area of Southern
Georgia sugar cane is the most profit.
able crop and the making of Georgia
cane strip is in some counties large
and well paying business.
The areas, which the naval stores
men are rapidly denuding of their for
ests, are splendidly adapted to sugar
cane growing, and, when their advan.
tages are thoroughly known, will
doubtless show a marvellous increase
in population and wealth
The Department of Agriculture has
always taken a lively interest in the
promotion of this great industry and
is glad to note that good work is be.

COTTON PRODUCTION
AZ Obtained from elnners' Reports.
o. B. STEVENS,
Commissioner.

Az Obtained from GInners' Reports.
One of the most reliable sources of
information for the United States cen
sus Office concerning the production
Of cotton is found in the reports of the
cotton ginners.
Many will be surprised to learn that
the cotton ginned from the growth of
1902, exclusive Of linters, amounted
to 11,078,SS2 running bales, equivalent
to 10, 020,945 bales of 500-pound stand
ard, or counting round bales, $40 $685..
$50.
The average crop, exclusive of lint
ers, for the past four years has been
9,902,277 bales of 500 pounds and the
excess over these figures of the crop
of 1902, is 72S6SS bales. The great
falling off in production west of the
Mississippi owing to crop failures in
Texas, was more than Offset by the
increase in other states, both east and
west of that river. The states show
Ing the most notable increase were
Arkansas, Georgia, Loupisiana and
Mississippi
The value of the entire crop of 1902
Is estimated at 1901, 1884, making
1t the second crop of the United
States in value, with corn first and
wheat third. The value of raw cotton
exports for the same time is $290,6 ST.
S19, giving that article the first rank
among American exports. Now here Is
a fact that our farmers should heed.
The export price for 1902 was about
one cent per pound less than that OF
1901. This shows the Importance
Of guarding carefully against over-pro-
duction, or, at least the necessity of
having some other paying crop to
come to the rescue, If the price OF
cotton should, by reason of an I'm.
usually large crop, fall below the point
Of profit.
1t is to be hoped that the marvellous
growth OF the cotton factories and
cotton seed oil mills of the south will
by their steadily increasing demand
for the raw product of our fields pre-.
vent any possible recurrence in the
future Of the ruinous low prices that
once prevailed.
The quantity of short cotton saved
to the commercial world by the regin.
ming of cotton seed for oil extraction
Is annually increasing.
The southern farmer can congratu.

Engagement Rings,

The custom of giving engagement
rings ranks back to long before the
Christian era. With the ancient Egyp-
tians engagement rings were always
of iron. to indicate the mutual sacri-
fee of liberty of the contracting par
ties.
One of the very earliest adornments
OF betrothal rings was a loadstone,
which symbolized the attractive force
which drew a maiden from her own
family circle into that of her husband.
1t is believed that the fourth finger
has always been the brides ring finger.
