consequently do not need s lit. Nfien
lih investigations haw proved that a
portion ot' the Mood consists of com
mon salt. This is continually
evolved throiiffli the kidneys and pores
of the skin. Tip bile and cartilages
of the budv contain soda, one of the
constituents of sail. If tho supply is
cut off digestion cannot be properly
carried on, and the animal sutlers.
Farm animals should always have a
Mipply of this necessary mineral, that
thry may take it at w ill, in which
ase they will not eat more than they
naturally require. In the season
'f the year when the stock is in the
pasture and when grass is fresh, salt
is perhaps relished by steel; more than
it any other tinio. '? ' '''''

Tea Culture.
From the first, singular mistakes have
been made in regard to tea culture in the
South. Some twenty-live years ago the
government thought it would like to
know whether the Chinese tea would
grow in the South, and they sent nit
ugent to China to get seed. At that very
time, hundreds of tea trees were irrowinL'
in the South, producing seeds, nnd nur
j scrymcn were raising plants for their
trade both from these seeds and from
cuttings. Any nurseryman rould have
told the government that the tea plant
would grow very well in the South, and
on n year's notice, could have furnished,
under contract, us many plants as desired
for distribution. Hut the seed came,
plants were rai-cd ami distributed every
where, nnd that was about the last of it.
Pining the lat few years, the govern
ment again tried its hand. Again it did
not appeal to nurserymen or tree growers
of experience, and again we have the
o -uo i u i tie .111 iiotiiireuieill lliai 11 can I
! ilr done.-' N
this
all nonsense.
The tea plant has been grown success
fully, ami is -till grow ing successfully,
in many p uis of the South. Tea has
I bci n made ti-. -in the haves as gooil and lis
cheap a-the Chinese ever made. Lit
j the government give but a bounty pro
; lection, if you like to call it - for a few
i vnir- for private enterprise, and we will
j u'u-irantee the success of the Chinese tea
