There has boon raisod at Charlotte, N. what ik 'to doubt one of tho fnr^cid crops of wheat over raised in tho South, not only in the number of acres limited, I ? it I in lite bushels of wlioat per acre. I iio ( hiirlot to < ) 1 1 and I eitilizer Company Itnvo 1 10 aerq?, and tho pi o i ? ! i* 1 1 i of this company, Mr. broil Oliver, M ? ?. making '.';i0 acres virtually ? it oito crop.

IMr. ( 'iivor'rt land has boon cnltivatoil by h i in for throo years, and produced last your pounds ? ? f lint por aero, Moth of those farina were as poor as any laud in tho county, and would not prodtico under the luanii^cmoul of tho colored s enters over oO to loo potindaof lint por iicro. Mr. Oliver, na martn^or for tho oil null and for hij own farm, decided it did not pay to raue cotton lit live conts I'or pound evoti when .000 pounds per aero con h I ho produced, and concluded to ahatidon the cultivation of cotton find try wlioat. The wheat was planted very hi! o_ aw it wiiii tirst necessary to nattier tho cotton crop. Tho first seed was dono tho last week in Novein hui mid the 1 t tho last week in I >o ceiuhcr. J ho ntnnd was ho poor on ac count of bpir,g bo Into howii that Mr. Oliver almost decided to plow it up, hut finally concluded to t<ee it through. Tho u'taiu was put in with drills ahout ono and one-half bushel* per aero, and 4f?0 pounds of very high grade fertilizer per nor ji.yjis need. /J lie crop jiow cut, hut not ail threshed, vyill no doubt give nearly if not fully fo^ty bushels of clean wheat por aero on tho average, or a total of 10,000 bushels on WO acres. Tho wheat is of very flue quality and of throo varieties l{?d May, . Fulenster and Wliito Clausen. About 1,000 hiifdioiR have alreii'Iv boon threshed and clean ed, and is very freo from cockle ? in fact, not a single grain of cock loseed has yot boon seen. Mr. Oliver expect* to sell tho entire crop of the oil mill and his farm for heed. l'he Oil Mill Company has purchased a very complete plant for threshing tho wheat and ha line the stiuw direct from tho thresher, having a capacity of 1,000 bushels of wheat and hall lit: lifty tons of straw | or tiny of twelve hours. 1 1 is certainly an object lo oa for tho South, North, Mast and West to find such a wheat crop growing in North Carolina, and should ho tho means of creating a demand for land in this healthy section of tho country from all quarters of the I'uitod .States. If tho wheat growers of tho Northwest can a fiord ^to pay $;N? to $7"> per aero for laud to produce fifteen to twonty-livo bushels of wheat per acre, and to raiso only ono crop per year, how much better would it bo for those farmers to go South, whero tho land can ho ob tained for }-.'{ to ?10 per acre, where ' farm labor can bo had for forty and fifty cents per day, where j^rcou foddor for the mules can ho cut at leant nino months in tho year, and, abovo all, wlieio tho la.id will produce two crops per year instead of ono. After harvesting thi wheat ilio samo land will grow and mature a crop of corn, Irish or Bweot potatoes, peanuts, or a crop of cow pea liny. Tho lanu this big wheat crop is on will all bo planted in cow peas, and Mr. Oliver expect. i to harvest three to four tons of cured cow pea hay per aero. This hav pells for moro money than any Northern hay brought South. ni*4,at tho present time is bringing $IH per ton. Tho crop of wheat will cost for fertilizer, seed -wheat and ait preparation of lund, sowing and harvesting, not over Sit por acre. Tho haled straw will hiiroly bo two and a liAlf^ons por acre, and will bring l(rt to |t?r ton, or more than enough to pay for tho ontiro crop, leav ing the whoat as net profit. The cow pea crop wll cost about $10 per aero, as the land will ho fertilized about as heavily as for wheat. Thu c?op should pay a pi??IU of at laaat f.'j hti per acre, which, added to the wheat proiit-ei #34 to $40, will make a net profit por aore of not less than $V>, perhaps as high aa $??"?. The cow |>ea9 will ho harvested in time to sow whe?t on the ?j0 acres he* fore December l. What is being done on these two farm* is *111191/ a rerala tioa to all South and North.

II. <*rairo, of the Ceylon Import ing Company, who says planters of Ceylon wove as much surprised as you or 1 or the next person at such fabu lous price. Owing to certain peculiar!- I tics a pound of that Uni probably repre sents, approximately, one hundred and forty-three dolors' worth of labor; but tin- figure it fetched is so extraordinary as to give 'the tea or the sale absolutely no commercial value whatever. Tills is particularly so because this tea has no appreciably liner tiavor. It Is named "the golden lips." The leaves, when only twenty-four hours old, are picked from the lop only of tea bushes. They are very small, no! half as 1 ?i if as your finger nail, and extra expert pickers are required to gather them. It can tic imagined Mutt 'throe hundred or foui hundred people on the plantation must pick over several acres of bushes to get enough given one day-old tea leaves to make a pound of tea w hen dried. < ?r dinary tea is from leaves which arc ten days old, and consequently very much larger. A contemporary asserts that a Chi cago woman has invented a bed which at a touch telescopes and forms a sofa. This should prove interesting for the life Insurance companies. Bcnntf 1m Blood Deep.
