The article above, headed Spanish Clo- , is the same to which reference was nude in a former numbers! the home. It is not in any sense a clover as it is an innnal and dies out,and is reproduced from the seed shed just like the crab grass of this country. During a late visit to Flori da, I learned that it is highly regarded is a forage for Btock, and as a reuovator olsoilB, for it yields an extraordinary amount of vegetable matter which dan be WTered with a good turning plowj. In that State, the corn raelds alter oeing iam or b a88 out of tnemt by, produce a large growth of this Spanish I fieid lie out for a year, and you will get Clover which is relished by all stock, and rid of them, xney are a gooa crop 10 turn your nogs upon, sy piaunug luom early, they will mature and make a good crop.

Some have been afraid to plant them ; but they are very easy to get rid ol and easily cultivated, but I cannot endorse what a gentleman wrote in the Georgia Grange about a year ago. He says one acre is worth perhaps, ten of Tennessee corn. I would like to know his plan, if that is so. Also, I think that paper stated that on uplands where you could raise ten bushels of corn you could make One. hundred bushels of chufas. You cannot do it. But on land that will make twenty bushels oi corn, you can make sixty bushels of chufas by two cultivations, if you will keep the Let your chuta similar remarks a long time ago, and now that I am growing old, I find that me and him have purty much the same views on a great many subjects. The trouble is, that nobody is going to be lieve either me or Solomon until they have been bumped around for a half a century and are most ready to step off 'this subloonary stage, and then it don t matter much, practically, whether they believe us or not Everybody has a very high respect for Solomon and all hiB glory, but they will do just as they durn please, anyhow, and they pay about a? much attention to his observations on the vanity of riches as they do to givin a man a cloak because be took their coat away.

My lining cannot be introduced to lighten the expense i of feeding stock in the South, a great desideratum as most ..farmers rely on their fodder and husk taken from their corn to support their Btock, as but few bave natural meadows or any of the cul tivated grasses. I have oalled the atten tion of farmers to the millet, to the pea Tine, red clover, luoerne, the orchard, and Bermuda and Quinea grasses, as Bourcesof forage supplies, all of which i ire good, but still there is some labor as well ib expense attending their cultiva tion; bat this is the cheapest of all, as it will reproduce itself in our fields when once seeded, just as the crab grass of the country, but its eradication is not so diffi cult nor is its presence in the field so in jurious to the growing crop as it has tap roots similar to that of the cotton stalks, ind does not become, matted or hold the "oil together in a mass when plowed up. From all I could learn about it, would idvise its introduction by planter's on a hmall Bcale as it might prove to be of im mense valae, as it can be exterminated easily if desired.

I think a bushel worth more than a bash el of peas. I do not think they are worth 85 to 100 per cent of corn. I cannot say over fifty per cent. They are not easy to gather ; I have paid freed men $1 a day to gather them. If a man gathers them slovenly, with the strings and roots on them they will pay very well, but not when cleaned. They are very easy to spoil ; easy to rot. If you gather them and harden them in the sun, they will be very sweet. If youput them in contact with salt it will rot them. They are like potatoes or peas, the salt atmosphere - of a smoke house will rot them. Any part of Georgia will do to plant them in. Tbey make best on light sou ; do not uo so wen on buu ibuu. j. believe you could plant them as late as Jane and by October you would have as many as if planted in the spring. They will make from fifty to seventy five and one hundred chufas to the hill. Eating off the tops does not injure them. You need never stop to uncover - them, or care if you cut off the top; it does not injure them. I would not like to put s took on tnem tnougn, to ' tramp., mem, as that would iniure the root.

The other day I met an old friend in Rome who started life poor, and was ambitious to be worth a hundred thousand dollars, and went for it night and day like killin snakes, and he told me he had lately found out there was notbin in it. Trouble and affliction slipped up from behind and overtook bim, and bis money wouldn't insure life nor health, nor peace, nor contentment, and now he was going to take his time and go slow, and try and make some depositee up yonder that he could bank on after be was dead.

It is not a wise polioy for any one to buy more goods than tbey eancon veniently pay for, and we do not encourage any one to do so.
