Farmer:
Three yearB ago the United Sta!
Commissioner of Agriculture sent i
for trial three pounds of Early Ai
ber cane seed. I drilled it in rO'
four feet apart, in a moderately ie
tilized eandy loam. The yield
sped and forage convinced me th
the plant would prove invaluable
a forage crop. The past season
teated it, both [ for sirup and iorag

known as the "Little Sand Hills."
was using cotton seed hulls as a bec
ding for my horses. These hulls al
sorbed the liquid manure, the valuab
properties ot which are better know:
I suspect, than appreciated by a rn?
jority of our farmers. I mean sin
ply to say that we make co genezt
systematic effort to save and utili;
this portion of the voidings in co
lots and stables. This well rotte
manure waa applied, with a mode:
?ttely liberal hand, to the hills, an
ten to twelve seed planted in each <
the latter. Subsequently the growt
was thinned out, leaving four to fi,
stalks to a hill. The stand th iv. oi
tained was hoed and ploughed one
Tlie Amber was planted about the 5t
of May. It grew off nicely, and b
the 10th of August was ready to I
stripped and topped. . I determine
to teat this plant for sirup. Awai'
jag an opportunity to have the cac
ground, I kt it stand until the last c
the month' just mentioned. Thi
operated to lessen the yield in siruj
The results obtained were a full ero
oi fine melons, two hundred pound
" of seed, one hundred pounds of fodde
and fifteen gallons of golden siraj
Be it remembered that the can
and melons were grown on thia frac
?on (nineteen-twentieths) of an ac?
simultaneously. The same tract mau
ured as for cotton, and given to . an
alone, would have produced not les
than seventy-five gallons of sirup an<
thirty-five bushels o; aced. The siro.]
is far superior to the adulterate!
article with which our markets an
flooded, and readily commands fiftj
cents a gallon, per barrel.
More on this branch of the subject
I induced Mr. F. A. Timberi ake, $
prominent citizen of Augusta, wh<
has a farm on the Georgia Rail roa*
near Grovetown, to join me in making
the experiments herein described
On land somewhat better than mine
Mr. T. planted eight acres in cane
half Amber, hali Kansa? Orange,
The latter was recommended es the
best for sirup-the former for forage,
He planted in hills two feet by foux
feet; using a fertilizer of his OWE
manufacture-largely dissolved bone.
Kesult : One hundred gallons oi
sirup and fifty bushel? of seed per
acre. He has experier jed nol difii
culty in placing the simp at 50 centi
a gallon per barrel. The Kansai
Orange stalk ?3 much larger than that
of the Amber. Mr. T. and the writer
are satisfied that for the purposes of
sirup and forage, the Amber is pre
ferable to the Orange in this section.
Is it hazarding too much to say
that not one-fourth of the sirups nov;
on our markets are the product ot
naught else than starch, otherwise
called glucose? I think not. How
necessary is it, then, that our people
sho-:ld be encouraged to make their
own ?rup. I belive that with proper
culture, without restricting planter*
to low lands, Early Amber will be
found to be more remunerative than
any other cane.
Take the seed : The general yield
is fifty, the average yield not less
than forty bushels per acre. As a
stock feed, it has no real superior.
It is known that starch is one of tho
chief constituents of food. Analyses
zaade of corn-and oats, so generally
used in the South in feeding stock,
and of Early Amber aeed give the
following result : Corn, albuminoids,
5.8*1, starch, 70.27 ; oats, albuminoids,
15.7, starch, 32.2; Early Amber,
albuminoids, 4.55, starch, 65.55. The
analysis given of corn was made by
the Department at Washington of
"Improved Prolific." It will be ob
served that on this basis Amber seed
is next in value to corn and far supe
rior to oats. For poultry, hogs, etc.,
it is better and cheaper than oats or
cora.
On?three acres, from which I had
gathered a crop of oats, I planted, in
the early part of J une last, Amber
oane for forage, using three pounds
per acre. The oat stubble having
been turned under, the land was run
off in furrows four feet apart, east to
wwi fer obvious xease&e. Stable ma
nure, of the .kindheretofore described,
woe distributed in 9 farrows in mod
erate quantities! When the cane had
attained a height of two feet it received
one plowing, and a furrow was mn
between the rows and cow peas sowed
in the drill. The cane foddered and
headed splendidly, and in ninety days
from the day it was planted was ready
for the "sickle. The first acre cut
gave 1,920 pounds of cane forage and
500 pounds of pea vines. In the
cane, I have the fodder, the .^ck,
which contain^ albuminoids, 4.95,
starch, 20.34, and is therefore an ex
cellent article of rough food, and the
heads full of nutritious seed. A mis
ture, two-thirds cane and one-third
pea vines, run through a telegraph
feed cutter, answers all the demands
of my horses as to food. The yield
of the remaining two acrGs was better
than the first. I did not weigh the
product of these two hence I shall say
nothing more of them. Next season,
(D. V.,) I propose to BOW from eight
to ten acres to Amber for forage. I
shall use manure with a fairly prod
igal hand, in expectancy 0: a yield
of from two to six ton?per aere. The
experiments made have demonstrated
fact? a3 follows : Amber cane with
stands drought better than corn or
German millet ; it does not tax the
soil severely; it grow luxuriantly
on uplands and on lowlands ; it is
worthy a fair trial at the hands of
our farmers.
For sirup or iorage, Amber should
be planted as soon a3 reasonable fears
of frost are removed. Preparatory
to grinding, it is only necessary that
the cane be topped. The passage of
the leaves through a mill will not
injur-. or discolor the sirup. The
pressed stalks will answer admirably
I for green food and may be kept for
! Winter soiling by reHorttothe system
I ot ensilage.
In the midst of pressing duties, public
and private. I have given you a hurried
report of experiments made with
Amber cane. If this communication
should chance to be the means of
inducing our farmers themselves to
give Early Amber a fair trial I shall
be more than satisfied.
Respectfully,

S bams in Jewelry*
The recent experience of a London
lady of rank, who wished to sell some
jewels goes to prove that shams are
not newer than other things under
the sun. Regarding'what were sup
posed to be splendid rubies the jeweler
said : They are certainly very sho> /,
madam, but unfortunately, only very
clever imitations in glass!" The lady,
much chagrined, then called attention
to the heavy setting, to which the
jeweler replied after the usual tests,
"The setting is only gilt !" Another
article produced for appraisement
was a superb bracelet, the gift of a
continental sovereign to the wife of a
distinguished diplomatist. The skill
ful manufacture and specific gravity
of the splendid object had been ex
trolled for generations in the family
of the possessor, and so highly was it
prized that it was invariably sent to
the banker when the iamily went out
of town. The jeweler s rutinized it
carefully, and pronounced it to be ex
tremely heavy "but," he added, "if
you wili allow me madam, to raise
this very thin plate, I shall be able
to fchow you that the,bracelet is filled
up with-lead !" Yet it is quite pos
sible that the original purchasers ot
these articles believed them to be
genuine, and'paid for them as such.
A few years ago an English gentle
men took a bracelet to a leading pro
vincial English jeweler to have the
ris?p mended. The jeweler looked
at the ctone carefully, and then said :
'"You are aware that this is not gen
uine? " "You must be mistaken. This
was given to my wife on her marriage
Ly my uncle, the iatt nan in the
world to give sham jewelry." But
the jeweler, an eminent man in his
j line, persisting, the donor was in
I formed. He wrote back that it had
j coat $000, and ordered that it be at
I once sent to him ; and, taking it to
Messrs. -, a firm of the first eminence,
indignantly stated his case. It was
sham. They offered a check at once,
J or a new bracelet, and seemed terribly
chagrined. The explanation was that
do what they would, they were at
times the victims of their workman, j
who substituted admirably made bo- '
gus gems for real ones. Probably '
scores of persons havejewelry thought
to be real which in truth is not so.
An old man would not believe he
could hear hia^wife talk a distance of
five miles by (^telephone. His better
half was in a^country store several
miles away, where there was a tele
phone, and the skeptic wap also in a
place where there was a similar in
strument, and on being told how to
I operate it hs walked boldly up and
shouted: "Hello, Sarah!" At that
instant lightning struck t he telephone
wire and knocked the man down,
and ae he scrambled to his feet he ex
citedly cried : "That's Sarah, every
time !"
A lady who had company to tea
reproved her little son several times
speaking, however, very gently. At
last, ont of patience with him, she
said sharply : " Jimmy, if you don't
keep still I'll send you away from the
table." " Yea, that's what you- al
ways do when there is company, and
there are not enough canned peaches
to go around," was the reply of the
gifted youth.

"Which am de properest way to

could not agree, the question was
referred to Uncle Mos? for his deci

Information wanted : "Look here,"
said the governor to a high State oiu
cial, "when are you going to pay me
that ten dol?ais?" "Upon my honor,
governor, I don't know." "Why, sir,
the other day, when I mentioned the
fact of your indebtedness, you asked
me where I would be Tuesday."
"Ye?, sir." "Well wasn't that a
promise that you would pay me Tues
day?" "Ko, sir." "Why, then, did
you want to know where I would be
Tuesday ?" "Because I wanted to
know where you'd beso leonid make
arrangements tc be somewhere else."

Something About the Car?1 of Boot?
and SHOCK,
1. Very few people ??ir<- Boots or Shoes
proper care in keeping them well oiled,
et<* Oil is tho essential life of leather,
and no leather, be it ever so good, will
wear any lungtk of time unless properly
oiled and cared for.
2. It very frequently happen? that
Boots ami Shoes aro pu: to ?i rancher usn
than that for which they were intended.
For instance, a man will put on a light
Kip or Calf Boot in farm work, ur other
hard wear, thinking that because if cost
him more than astoga, that it ought to
give him as rr itch or more wesr. while
the fact is that the Boot, is too light for
the ?se ho is making of it, and cannot
bo expected to stand.
3. Many Boots and Shoes are burned
when wet. It is a well established fact
that leather burns much more easily
when wet ?han when dry. It dees not)
burn when wet from actual h^a', hut
from steam generated in tho poj es of the
leather by tho action of tho heat upon
the water in the leather, which scalds it.
A burn of this kind seldom shows nt
first, but as tb? leather dries, it immedi
ately cracks ont where burned, and thc
wearer is puzzled to know what is the
matter, and blames the maker, when ho
himself is alone at fault.
i. Many people are troubled with
sweaty feet. Tho sweat from the foot
will crack any leather no mutter how
good. Such persons should never wear
woolen stockings.
