~ r> o ** WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3. Experiment in Cotton Cul? ture. "J. M. G." contributes the follow? ing ta the Fairfield News and Herald AU such observations as are here ?-iven are valuable, and should be published for the general good : Having giveu my attention closely as to th? best mode of preparing land to -plac?; and cultivate a cotton crop, I made a discovery the past year, aod send it for publication Ito. January,. 1S"S5, ? planted ia tay garden eight young peach tree?, tu rows fifteen fci?t apart, and in March of last year planted lucerne ia drills jenaing parawel with the trees, com meacing far enc- off not to be in jared by ther had the ground heavily cuan*" bf green cotton seed, \<? phosphate ana manure, previous lo preparing to plant, and some of the eotton seed (Peterkin) was scattered suSciently far to fall between the trees Stalks of cotton came up ia April where there* li ad been no plowitg. I decided to select a stalk as near as I -couW be? tween the tr?es, and have them culti iwfted with the coe in order to keep grass and weeds from injuring them, and notice the result I bad eight ?talks, and those which did not appear affected by the trees made an excellent yield, one of which had 12$ bolls, and all, except sir or eight, opened suiri ciently to be picked. Another, which was broken about the middie of July, limbed out and made SD boils, one ??tub having 2S. The above goes to teach that the plow ts oftentimes used too freely ia the cul? tivation pf the crop, for io this iustaoee there was no preparation of the land whatever. In the planting of lucerne below and corn above the trees, the earth between, where the cott n carne op, had never leen broken in width fro? two to two and one-half feet. The above experiment- clearly demon? strates that laad generally w>u4d only refaire thorough preparation to plant, after which surface cultuie to keep the crop clean and earth from crusting after rains. Co oar sloping lands prepare well, with rows on a level, and cf good width. Celtivate with a sweep deep enough to stir the surface well, and hoe j to keep the crop clean of grass, and on *'laying-bj'*" always ran a straight ?hovel furrow rn thc middle of each j row, to receive surplus rain water aud preventing the washing of the land across the rows. The only calls for j ?ny more plowing would be in case of j nins in June, euScient to compact the ?oil on land destitute of hoares, thereby j preventing the roots from permeating ] ?he soil thoroughly, for after June the cetton requires all the roots it has for i ?fee full growth cf stalk and develop- j ?men? of fruit. I have often seen i volunteer stalks near the end of rows j that received no preparation of land cr ] ?cultivation whatever, wei i fruited. The above mode of cultivation is -generally practiced by the majority of j "farmers on plantations of a sandy qual? ity of soil, and the above experiment .shows it can be don*3 on any of our lands, if the seasons are anywise uni? form. ? do not advocate it ca the ground of increased acreage being planted, bot to lessen somewhat the cx gease of labor and horse power. Never Tired, "When this country was first settled, j there was an impression assong the I colonists that the Indians had no intel- i ligefcce nor craft irr their relations with ! the white men. Thc latter soon found, j however, that tl?i> was cot the case ! Soae of ike farteers attempted to make j farm servants cf the Indians, but dis- ! cover*.d that t::cy hud a pr:? pee ?'tv to j <4get tired" so soon after they bejran j work that their services were of little j value. One day a farmer was visited ; by a stalwart indian, who ?uid, ' Mt j want work.'* "No." said the farmer, "you will j get tired/' j **Nc, no," said the Indias, "me I never get tired !" The farmer, triking his word for it. j pet the indian to work, and went away j about some other business. Toward j noon he teturned to the place, and found ; '?fr? ?odian sound asleep under a tree. j "Look here, look here," shouted the termer, shaking the Indian violently. ! ..'you told me that you cover got :;r..d. ; and yet here you are stretched out oa : tfce ground P "Ugh!'7 said the Indian, rubbing j his eyes, and slowly clambering: to bis ; feet, "if me not lie down, me get tired i like the rest !"

Signal Observer O'Brien, of Jupiter Inlet, Fia., massed through the city yesterday on his way to Washington on a fifteen days' furlough. Mr. O'Brien says that the fish, turtles and other marine life are being destroyed, about fifteen miles ofi Jupiter Iu?et, by au oily substance which has made its ap? pearance on the water within the past three weeks. It has destroyed the splendid snapper ar.d ba?.s Sshing in ; that locality, and deep sea turtle? aud j many varieties of fish by the thousand* j have come to Surface as dead ss a ; March berrinp\ It is believed that I some seismic sub-marine disturbance I h?s opened a cavi'y and liberated a vein ; of oil, which, coming up through the ! fishing banks, has hilled the fish by the strong impregnation -of the water. As thia has occured within fifteen miles j of land, investigations will no doubt j follow to see if oil does not underlie ' that portion of South Florida, and it is ! believed that when the matter is brought ! to the attention of oil men prospecting ! will follow. That the substance on the water is oil is conceded, and being upheaved ia that immediate locality the I concision follows that oil can be found ; by boring, but how deep is to be known I only after a test.-Savannah Xeics.
