A good many Granville county have already come in and more are expected soon. There is some as pretty land in the eastern part of Martin county as there is in the State. The South Carolina marl. arc making strenuous is year to sell most of the crop in the State. For the last month seasons crops too somewhat re- minded of the year 1890. May it continue so until our crops are the house. One of the prettiest all around crops of tobacco that we seen this j ear is cultivated by Mr. J. S. Jenkins on the farm of Col. R, W. Wharton. The Greenville tobacco market will be ready for the sale of the crop August 1st, but we will hero say to the farmers that if yon good tobacco it will pay you better to hold it for a while at least till the excessive hot weather has parsed. Several bundles of new tobacco have been exhibited on the streets The tobacco as a matter of course, shows up very thin and papery but it has good color. These are plant bod leaves primed off and cured. From the up-country tobacco curers that to year we learn that the tobacco crop up there is not at all Hat- The unfavorable in early Spring caused very plants and just about the transplanting season for that section it turned off very dry and caused u bad stand. The crop is a late one, but if seasons are good from now until curing time a good crop may be saved. They say that so far the crop has been less troubled with in- sects than any crop for several years.

W. Hodges, he called our attention to one row of tobacco in the middle of the field, that was at least by an actual of the leaves one third smaller the surrounding tobacco. He said that it was all manured just alike and that no attention would ever have been given the row had it not been for the fact that there was a difference of opinion as to the best mode of starting the of the tobacco, One con- tended that the plow should be used in throwing dirt from the tobacco while Mr. Hodges contended that the cotton king or harrow was the best to use the first time the tobacco was worked- under the of opinion they decided to use the harrow on all except one row through the middle of the field- This row was barred off with a turn plow worked afterwards just like the other to- Mr- Hodges says it has bad the same cultivation and mode of management that the other has had and yet if is one third smaller clear through the field than the other rows. These two modes of cultivating tobacco the first time are employed by very near all of our people and each one is used just about much as hence the of the bettor method of the two- It may have been the condition of the soil, that favored the harrow.

Mr. O. L- Dear reply to fa- me to give you my views as to tun of a tobacco crop is at hand. In re ply, I will say me in my infancy regarding tobacco I fear my views will of little value interest, however, I am willing to do what I can to help my fellow-man and if yon find the following, my experience in to- worth anything, you use it, if you wish- It seems to me that the groat est success that can be obtained in tobacco culture must be tho re suit of careful thought and sober judgment from the very begin- This it mast be remember- ed is the base rock of all success- tobacco growers without which it is only chance that sic in tobacco culture is ever made- In selecting laud for tobacco I am always careful to pick out a medium gray soil from to inch- es deep with a yellow clay sub- soil. I prefer rested laud with a good heavy coat of muck- I break the land thoroughly early just as soon as the muck has been killed by frost, then in February I sow broadcast about or bushels of cotton seed and then break land again by cross In February I prepare my land which is a import ant matter, for with- out plenty of vigorous, healthy transplanting will be de- I always find first setting the best. The laud should to a about an inch drag off the coals, and to square yards of laud put of stable and then dig it into the laud. I then broadcast pounds of of cot ton seed meal and dig in with a rake, drag oil all foots trash and mix one of seed to square yards, mix in ashes, dry sand or guano. I sow over two or three to get them regular and th pack them with a roller w lien I find is the best and fastest way, I put a scant- ling frame around my bed about six inches high and stretch can- across close tight, so as to keep out I then dig trenches around bed to drain off the water in case of wet My experience is that manure acts better a mellow than a sour state, hence, I have about five times as much dirt as I have other manures into my lot and mix all my stable, hog pen and cow lot manure with the dirt, grade them oil together and throw up in a compost, and let it remain ready for use. If there have been hard packing rains tho tobacco land needs a third breaking in April. If in a mellow I do break tho third time. Now comes the most important part, manuring and the plants. I run off my rows three a half feet apart and very deep. I think this quantity of manure would make a very good tobacco, bushels of the compost pounds These should be put in very careful regular to prevent spotted crops and an even stand. If you want to make good tobacco, you must not think of what it is costing to it, but think how much more it will to cultivate a poorer op than a good Tobacco that is half manured requires about one-third more work, because the Is poor and you keep working the hard- trying to make something out of it. I find that a tobacco crop does better transplanted from the last week in April to the of May- Tobacco lives much better set with a transplanter and the land just dry enough to require a little water to wash the roots of the young plants which gives it early start. When set by the dirt is often pressed too hard at the top and not filled at the bottom, which always gives you a late and uneven crop. In about eight days after the tobacco has been transplanted I use the turn plow with the Pate wing attachment which is fastened on to the bar, I run the bar side to the tobacco not over two inch es deep, I let it in this condition about eight and than side it up with a cotton plow not very deep and split middles immediately. When to is deep especially with a turn plow the is left exposed to sun and rain and hence loses a great deal of its strength, besides the young roots are cut which of to growth of ,,.,, , injurious to growth of the following communication . . . , mm t w iv in plant. The land should be stirred Mr-J-W. of . . . after rain so to keep it in a I do not think it necessary to use the fine more than one tune and that is often the first with cotton Some very good farmers claim that hilling tobacco with the hoe after it has been does it good but my experience teaches me that it is unnecessary expense be- sides a tendency to make the take the second growth- If the laud has been properly prepared during the fall, winter spring o will have but little use for the hoe the cultivation of the crop- Topping tobacco is a business Some times you strike it right then again you miss it outright. Strong, healthy good land may be topped from to leaves high while poor plants on um laud be cut down to from to sometimes If you top it high it is easy enough to go over top ii but so if you get it too low the first time. So my is to lop sufficiently nigh the first time to warrant you of getting it too low go over the second time if necessary prime it down. The best plan is to use judgment about topping. then to make the worms and suckers must be kept off. Turkeys are tho best hands I over hail to keep off worms out you must do the suckering you certainly must attend strictly to that part of it otherwise your tobacco will not be much. In curing tobacco it is to have some one that has had experience. Green and ripe tobacco will not cure alike it is necessary to have some one aid in the who understands it. It is useless for me to undertake to give a formula f curing tobacco for as every tobacco farmer knows no two will take heat alike aid that, like top- ping, every must be his own judge. When tobacco is first en from the barn you should be particular to take it out in too high order. Let it dry enough for the stems to if mashed- The tobacco first sheet ed or in the pack house in oven rows after h has remained a few days re- bulk it in square pens, leaving tho butt of the stalks out, so in case of wet weather there will no danger of the tobacco from contact with the stubs of the stalks which frequent- arc not killed Above all things be sure that your tobacco is ban- died carefully when you are paring it for bout it d way a to cause the warehouseman and to kick but handle your tobacco nicely, So that you can get the top market price- They like to buy that is nicely After tobacco is graded it should be a safe condition It will get better every time it is changed- conclusion, I will say that from my limited experience, I am lead to believe that there is more money satisfaction in a small crop of tobacco well cultivated nicely handled than a largo crop struck at. No man has business trying to cultivate a crop of tobacco, unless he is going to stay with it and give it his divided attention. With best wishes, I am yours truly, J. W. Dixon- Mr. Dixon has made great in tobacco culture. Last year he sold from acres of to- over three thousand worth.

U With the advent of Turkish and various oriental decorations came also of floor cushions, says toe New York World. Nothing gives a room such a appearance, surely nothing Is less difficult or expensive to own. They are charming in the drawing- room or sitting-room near the open Ere, or on the veranda in the summer twilight. If finished with large brass rings they are easily moved about, placed, perhaps, near the great armchair, where some one is telling a story, or piled at the bead of the lounge, where a near and dear friend is stretched languid and weary longing to be fanned from just such a vantage point. But the girl who is addicted to the use of floor cushions must beware. To use them well requires quite a little talent and not much avoirdupois, and not only must she agile and lithe of form, but she must also be one of the women who me at their best looking up. That women differ In their ability to appear fascinating or even in- when their eyes are rolled heavenward or even the sterner sex, en route to the celestial regions, is one of the facts constantly thrust upon one in the various crowded city conveyances, where women are more apt to be seated than their escorts.

Many a girl who is distinguished , in appearance and wholly . in manner when seated on or standing by a table or lean- on a chair is awkward and ill at ease if compelled to throw her head back and look up while conversing.

It is no more r than freezing is at a point in the Speedway immediately of High Bridge, whore there is now a huge hole in the along the Harlem river, which will be longer and deep- before work of securing a foundation for the Speedway retain- wall is completed. The work is of a character to interest engineers. Though somewhat similar steps been adopted once or twice in the history of science before, never have the same intricate problems been presented as now. The success of this experiment will be watched, therefore, with interest. Its cost will probably be in the neighborhood of thirty-five thousand dollars. James D. Leary has the contract for constructing the section of Speed- way upon which this unusual effort is to be made, and, curiously enough, the difficulty was encountered in the final fifty feet of his contract, which extends One Hundred and Fifty-fifth street to High Bridge. The work necessitates sinking a re- wall to a foundation along the river side of the Speed way, and soundings at this particular point rock eighteen feet below the surface. Whether their sounding rods struck a detached stone here or not is not certain, but it has developed that hard bottom is probably twenty feet lower than supposed mt the outset. After sinking their sheeting -to what was presumed be the re- quired depth it was found to be too short, and then a bed of quicksand developed, and no headway could be made, this emergency the ex- of freezing this bank of quicksand and water so that- it would not overflow the for the wall's foundation had to be adopted.

A stout old lady with a red face and a big market basket on her arm boarded a crowded avenue car yesterday afternoon, and taking the only vacant seat, deposited her basket in front of her. In a few minutes strange sounds began emerging from the basket and the stout old lady showed visible signs of embarrassment. The racket con- and finally she tried to quiet the such it speak- to It. Her efforts were futile, though, and an old gentleman sitting next to her thought she had better take off the lid and see what was the trouble; maybe it was caught in some manner. Gallantly dropping on one knee the old gentleman raised lid Slightly and inside. He took one look. His face grew red and silently replacing the lid he walked to the platform and jumped off without waiting for the car to stop. This peculiar action aroused the curiosity of the rest of the while the owner of the basket appeared to be greatly mystified. By this time the noise had ceased, but fully determined to investigate her- self the old lady tore the lid of the basket completely off. Horrors Instead of one cat there were four, three being sleek little kittens, all scrambling around with their eyes shut. The passengers were all crowding around now to get a look at the new family.
