Phe Press and Banner,! ABBEVILLE, S.C. Wednesday, Sept. 20, 1882. Farm and Crop Dots. The cotton is lator by two or throe, veeks than it was last year, and it seems j< hat our fanners are greatly behind .vitli;! lie work of picking it out* As yet very ! i ittle cotton has been brought to market, || Ithough our fields have been white with ho suiplc for days. j, Tho recent wind and rain storm was , lot so disastrous to the corn crop as il j I vas once thought to be. It is true that < here are instances where the crop has. >een greatly injured, and especially is this; ( ruo in respect to tho crops on river low j, ;uids, but the corn on the crock lands are1. iot so badly injured. For instance, iin-1' liediatoly after tho storm, Mr. John C. j >ouglass, who has eighty ai re?: of low ' inds on McUord's creek, thought hiscro|> ' nis almost entirely ruined. Now he 1 hinks that he has not boen damaged ex-! coding five bushels to tlio acre, or about I jur hundred bushels in all. It'the ma-j ] >rity of the crops should not have been j i njured to an amount exceeding fivoj ittshels to the acre, wo will st111 makoj( ho biggest crop of corn ever grown in, < Lbbeville county. ji We fear that many planters are neglect-1 ng to sow small grain. The oat crop1 hould now be sown. No titne is to be; >st from this important work. Barie.v should receive immediate atten- ;' ion. Every family owning stock or| owls should provide a liberal crop of ; his most excellent green food. For milch cows barley is highly recom ' nonded. It is claimed that green barley ucreases the flow of milk to an extent 1 iot equaled by any other food. 11 Turnips are of the greatest importance. 5 ] lo family should bo without a patch of j urnips of sotne kind. If this crop has!, een neglected, attend to the matter at , nee. |, Our planters are over-run with work!" 1st now. Their fields are white with cot- j jn, and thoir sorghum cane is ready to j * rind. Thoasandsof gallons of molasses ! . rill bo ma.le in this county this year, fany ban els have been carried to th? niintry in which to store the syrup. ' Lienors as a general rule will have ery little excuso for not paying their inebtedness to the stores, and it is said that 1 ae merchants are not willing to carry \ ver debts to the next year's account. j Many farmers in this county will have I \ oured or sprouted corn. Let them not jrget that thoy must not feed spoiled!" ?..... u,?. ir 1.1 ,1.,! .1111 IU tllUll I1WI9C9 < 11. IWUJ nuwuiM \?-/ J >, bliml staggers and death to tho ani- * tals will bo the result.

This sterling agricultural journal i!l lakes its appearance for the first fall 11 jonth, more handsome and attrac ivo, it"| ossible, than ever. Wo opine th-U the j 1 "iblishers imagine that thousands ??f our r irmers have been waiting tho coming ofi le "rcouoj' season' to indulge in the -j ixury of sUeh a splendid paper. AndJt, e doubt not they will fully realize their j spectations, for surely the progressive , irmer cannot do without tho old Culliv<i- \ 1 >r. A farmer recently said that he had i4 brived benefit from reading Dr. Join's' Thoughts for the Month" in one nuni-il' or alone to more than remunerate him j I ?r a year's subscription. In every issue r. Jones maps out the farmer's work for ie month in a masterly manner. Bill |: rp contributes for one issue one of his j limitable letters. I j In the present number tho addresses . E Gen. \V. M. Browne, (Professor of Agculture, at Athens), and of Judge Men-| Esrson, (Commissioner of Agriculture for M'; \ th? i * gricnltural Convention at Marietta, arc j ublished. Both these addresses are full' u f wisdom and sound advice. j 11 The "Inquiry Department" of the CWvator is ono of its leading features. Any !? iasonable question that is asked by a | ,rrner is answered by Dr. Jones. This apartment is fuller in the Cultivator n >an in any other agricultural publii-aon, North or South. \i $1.50 sent to Jas. P.

Tmiirlit by Experience. j | Lexington Jlivpotch.] ! The farmers 01 the South, taught, by the Mter experience of recent yearn that "all cuton" kept most, of them poor, have nt Icatrlh iirne'l their energies towards solvirg the rohlein whelh'-r the .South c.*uld not support lerself. The rewind of tlu lr labors in I he liape of sf lendid yh-lds of grill 11 and other iotithern fond cro| s is a sufficient answer, ml the Southern farmer who hereafti r linds 1 iin.-elf at the close of a favorable season d? lendetU upon the granaries of the West for uppiies, \vill only have to b'.ame himself for 1 lis tolly, it has been shown, though thinktig people never doubted it for a moment, hat the South can support herself, and at the ametime produce an ample surplus of colon, the profits of which can be largely inri-ased t?y judicious management. The fact hat I lie Southern farmer ims tniido enough rorn his land to support his family from the , ibors of the season just closing, and from the ' irolltsof his cotton will be prepared to en- '< iirge his opera!ions. Is lito stroiiue-t argument to induce Immigration I hat has been adiinced In years, Let the next season make u ! tmilar. and, if possible,abetter showii.g, an.; ur waste places will of necessity fili up Morever, let the would-be Immigrant know that le wilt not only linil land iiere, butalfothc leans to cultivate it. and he will lie the more r-mly to cast his lot with us. To many it may ppear that the time is yet at hand for "new cpartures." So thought (lie planter Who. for ears, picked his cotton and looked to the Vest, for Jus stores.

This change, we are hnpy to bt'lievc, has been brought about largely y persistent efforts of the pres. which, in nil out of season, pointed out. to the farmeis ft he South the path to true independence lore remains to bo done. The South has en red upon the Ugh road to prosperity. Let | be press of the South loses sight of nothing ' lint will contribute to the increase of that lospfri-fy. our thriving cotton factories are | n Irrefraglble argument in lhcnii>< Ives forth' iversity of Southern industries. Thoseinustriescan be varied iniielinitely it tiie ptirose is formed and the will i- shown to have licin so. The Sottth's one purpose should be d itrow wealthy.
