Hor?h Carolina '. Agricultural Report
-Th0 Outlook For the Present Tear
1
The opening of the crop season is aus
picious nd . hopeful. The remarkably
mid and dry winter has been peculiarly
favorable to oat door work, and it has, as
a role, been ! pushed vigorously by our
farmers. So that at the beginning of the
year their work and planB are well ad
vanced. Repdrts from a large number of
tbe counties indicate a healthful and
hopeful condition financially among our
peonle. Having in a great measure gone
bi ek to the good and safe rule of pro
ducing farm supplies at home, our farm
ers were generally in a position to utilize
the proceeds of their cotton and other
surplus crops last Fall to the best advan-
instead of tbe commission merchant.
The general buoyancy in all circles of
trade and commerce, and the fair price
obtained for cotton, has greatly encour
aged tbe people, aud renewed and re
doubled efforts will be exerted in the
coming season to reap still richer re
wards from their labors. Not since the
war bate greater or more extended prep.
. arations been made in our State for a
large cotton crop. Bat our people should
be admoaisbed by the trying experiences
of tbe recent past in the matter of plant
jog cotton for profit, to tbe exclusion of
otber crops not to take too great a risk.
Twebty five cent cotton lured; us well
Digh to tbe verge of financial ruin, and
we eboald be careful when it brings only
half so much. We cannot afiord to risk
oar time, labor and money on one siDgle
crop over the market value of which we
bate no control. The only safe rule,
with a soil possessing snob diversified ca
pabilities as oars, is to first produce oar
tread and meat and otber necessary farm
(applies at home for just in proportion
a we diversify crops to suit our soils, do
we letjeen the risks of dependence on
fluctuating j markets or tbe freaks of
trade. The strongest possible proof ol
tbe correctness of this policy is found in
tbe independence and thrift which almost
invariably blesses the mau who pursues
' I- : ) - . '
The financial condition of our people
ia improving. In moat counties they
i have increased their small grain crops,
especially that of wheat.
Cholera' still prevails in many, sections
among tbe hogs, and all efforts to arrest
it are unavailing.
The wheat crop in some localities has
been seriously damaged by the ravages of
a email fly which seems to multiply with
wonderful rapidity. Specimens of this
insect have been examined at this office,
nd it is evidently a stranger in the
State . , i .
" A greater area will be devoted to the
tobacco crop this year than ever before
in oar history. Tbe splendid s access that
has rewarded the efforts of- our planters
to core the brighter grades, and the uni
formly fair prices realized, have, greatly
stimulated our people from one extreme
of the State to tbe otber. It is a matter
of sincere regret that the earnest efforts
of tbe Department to obtain reliable stat
istical information have been unavailing,
as no. doubt a gratifying progress in this,
as well as other important crops, could
be shown. From a few- counties in the
north central portions of the State, this
crop is now rapidly spreading' all over the
State, and we find in our Museum beauti
fa I specimens from tbe coast counties to
those west of the Bine .Ridge.
uar mining interests nave been re
vived, and great activity in this class of
oar industries prevails, especially through
tbe central counties.
Labor has not materially improved. In
many of the counties it has been greatly
demoralized and impaired by the exodns
movement, and it is difficult for the farm
ers to make satisfactory arrangements.
Bat the general condition of our people
ia unquestionably better than it has been
at any time since tbe war.

Clover and the Grasses-
Yours asking for my method of sow
ing clover seed, Ac, is at hand, and agree
aoiy to your request I will state, that
generally about the first week in March
I bow, provided tbe weather and lands
are suitable. On clover fallow I run over
the land (if it is not too soft), with tbe
Thomas Smoothing Harrow, and then
sow the seed, witb a box 12 feet, long,
about 4 inches wide, and 4 inches deep,
divided into 12 or 15 compartments, each
with a small hole in tbe centre of bottom,
about an eighth of an inoh in diameter,
which will allow the seed to fall (as the
man walks) at tbe rate of one bushel to
about ten acres. A man witb a box will
seed 15 to 18 acres per day; and I have
only failed once in the fourteen years
that I have been farming, to get a stand
of clover sown in that way. On pea fal
low, or on corn land wheat, I sow tbe
seed (without the harrow), and then roll
tbe land well, as I think tbe rolling ben
fits 'the wheat as well as the clover seed
ed the land generally being light and
puffy. In my judgment, clover seed
should always be sown on tbe surface of
land and covered very little, as the rain
covers them sufficiently, and being near
the surface they get tbe benefit of the
sun better than when they are covered
after being sown. In bo wine orchard
grass, I sow, late in March, 1879, made a
fair show; had poor season for grass ;
clover came to nothing ; neither worita
cutting or turninsr under.
In January, 1877, ploughed 30 acres
stiff, wet land, having quite a heavy cov
er of broomstraw. Applied 25 bushels
lime in April, planted corn in May ; laid
by corn middle of August, sowing winter
oats, three .pecks, covering with Malta
plow; very rough; made no corn, little
over one barrel, bat got good stand of
oats, which eheep grazed in the winter

OR,
PLAIN ADVICE FOB PLAIN PEOPLE
BY O H 8FUB0K0IT.
IX.
On Patience.
Patience is better- than wisdom: an
ounce of patience is Worth a pound of
brains. All men praise patienoe, but few
enough can praotioe it; it ia a medicine
wbiob is good for all diseases, and there
fore every old woman recommends it;
but it is not every garden that growB
tbe herb to make it with. When one's
flesh and bones are fall of aches and
pains, it ia as natural for us to murmur
as tor a horse to shake his head wben
the flies tease-him, or a wheel to rattle
wben a spoke is loose; bat nature should
not be the rule witb Christians, or what
is their religion worth ? If a soldier
fights no better than a plougbboy, off
witb bis red coat. We expect more fruit
from an apple-tree than from a thorn,
and we have a right to do bo. Tbe dis
ciples of a patient Saviour should be pa
tient themselves. Grin and bear it is the
old fashioned advice, but sing and bear
it, is a great deal better. Alter all, we
get very few cuts of tbe whips, consider
ing what bad cattle we are; and when we
do smart a little, it is soon over Pain
past is pleasure, and experience comes by
it. We ought not to be afraid of goinfe
down into Egypt when we know we shall
come out of it with jewels of silver and
gold.
Impatient people water their miseries
and boe up tbeir comforts: Borrows are
visitors that come without invitation, but
complaining minds, send a wagon to bring
tbeir troubles home in. Many people are
born cnrinir. live eomDiaininer. and die
disappointed; they chew tbe bitter pill
wbiob they would not even know to be
bitter if they bad the sense to swallow it
whole in a cup of patienoe and water.
They think every, other man's harden to
be light, and their own feathers to be as
heavy aa leaa; tney are oaraiy aone oy in
their own opinion; no' one's toes are eo
often trodden on by the black ox as theirs;
the snow falls thickest round their door,
and tbe hail rattles ;hardest on their win
dows; and yet; if the truth was known,
it is their fancy rather than their fate
which makes things go so bard witb them.
Many would be well off if they could but
think so. A little sprig of the herb called
content put into tbe poorest soup will
make it taste as rich as the Lord Mayor's
tartle. John Ploughman grows the plant
in bis garden, but the late bard winter
nipped it terribly, so that he cannot af
ford to give his neighbor a' slip of it;
they bad better follow Matthew XXV, 9,
abd go to those who sell, and bay tor
themselves. Grace is a good soil to grow
it in, but it wants' watering from the
fountain of mercy.
To be poor, is not always pleasant, but
worse things than that happen at sea.
Small shoes are apt to pinch, but not if
you have a small foot; if we have: little
mikni it will be well to have little de
sires. Poverty is no shame, but being
discontented witb it, is. In some things
maxes nappmess. mere is more sweet
in a spoonful of sugar than in a cask of
vinegar, it is not tbe quantity or our
goods, but the blessing of God on what
we have that makes us truly rich. Tbe
paring of a pippin are better than a
whole crab ; a dinner of herbs, with peace,
is better than a stalled ox and contention
therewith. Better is little with tbe fear
of the Lord than great treasure and
trouble therewith." A little weod will
heat my little oven, why, then, should
I murmur because all the woods are not
mine ?
When troubles come, it is of no use to
fly in the face of God by hard thoughts
of providence: that is kicking against
tbe pricks and hurting your feet. The
trees bow in the wind, and so must we
Every time tbe sheep bleats, it loses a
mouthful, and every time we complain we
miss a DiesBing. ttrambling is a bad
trade, and yields no profit, but patience
has a golden hand. Our evils will soon
be over. After rain comes clear shining;
black crows have wings; every winter
turns to spring; every night breaks into
morning.
Blow the wind never so fast,
It will lower at last.
If one door should be shut, God will
open another ; if tbe peas do not yield
well, the beans may: if one hen leave
ber eggs, another will bring out all her
brood: there's a bright side to all things,
and a good God everywhere. Somewhere
or otber in the worst flood ol trouble,
t' ere always ia a dry spot for oontent
ment to get its foot on, and if there were
uot, it woald learn to swim.
Friends, let us take to patienoe 'and
water groet, as the old folks used to tell
us, ralber than catch the miaerabieB, and
give others the disease by wickedly find
ing fault, with God. The best remedy for
affliction is submitting to providence.
W bat can't be cured must be endured If
we or n not get bacuo, let us bless God
that there are still some cabbage in ib
garden Must is a hard nut to crack, but
ii bas a sweet kernel. ''All things work
together for good to them that love God "
Whatever falls from the skies is, sooner
or later: good for the land : whatever
comes to us from God is worth having,
even though it be a rod. W e cannot b
nature like trouble any moore than a
mouse can fall in love with a cat, and yet
Paul by grace came to glory in tribula
tions also. Losses and crosses are heavy
to bear, but when our hearts are right
with God, it is wonderful bow easy tbe
yoke becomes. We must needs go to
glory by tbe way of Weeping Cross; and
as we were never promised that we
should ride to heaven in a feather beef.
we must not be disapointed when we see
the road to be rough, as our fathers
found it before us. All's well that ends
Well; and, therefore, let us plough the
heaviest soil witb our eye on the sheaves
of harvest, and learn to sing at our labor
while others murmur.

Ibish Potato Ccltoh Which is the
best way to insure a good crop of Irish
potatoes 7 Some say leave three or four
eyes in cutting them, and plant eight or
ten inches apart. Others maintain that
only one eye is necessary, and plant
twelve or fourteen inches apart. The
latter way I believe is the Irish way, and
they ought to know. C a. L.
Answer Potatoes are cultivated in
almost endless variety and almost every
way. Those who grow them for market j
to make money pretty generally cut to
about two eyes, and plant twelve to
fourteen inches apart in the rows.

Keidsville. The old man has been a hard
working farmer all his life, but his wife
was teaohing school when be married
her, and preserves such fondness for lit
erature to this day that she still wears
a few straggling curls. It was from ber
that their son Adolphus, took all his ro
manoe, and two weeks age he married a
pretty and sentimental young woman
entirely for love, and brought her home
to live, that be might help the old man
run tbe farm, though tbe farm was hard
ly big enough for two families to run it

waiting several mornings, but tbe old
man held bis peace and said nothing,

when Adolphus proposed a walk witb
his bride and called her " Rosebud" that
