TOCACCO CULTURE.
PREPARATION OF THE SOIL FOR
PLANTING.
A Valuable Treatise on the Subject for
the Inexperienced Farmer.
TDy MaJ. It. L. Rapland.
The tobacco plant thrives in a deep,
mellow, loamy soil, rich or made so
with fertilizers. The sub-soil ought
to be sufficiently porous to permit the
water falling on the surface to pass
downward readily, and not to accu
mulate to drown and stagnate.
If old land is selected, it ought to
be fallowed deep in the fall or early
winter, that the frosts may pulverize
it. Turn under, it possible, some
coarse farm manure, for its decay will
greatly help to loosen the soil, while
furnifhmg food for the crop. As a
coarse manure lor yellow tobacco,
nothing is better than wheat straw
turned under in the fall and winter.
The plants rarely fail to ripen yellow
in color on land thus treated.
In the early spring more manure
may be applied, but it is better that
this should come from the compost
heap. Follow the application of the
compost with one-horse turning plow,
crossing the previous ploughing, turn
ing not exceeding four or five inches
dtep about half the depth of the first
ploughing. Then, just before it is
time to plant, run double-shovel
ploughs over the lot, crossing again to
thoroughly make fine. These repeated
ploughings, crossing each time every
previous one, never fail, if the work is
done when the land is in proper con
dition, to put it in proper tilth.
Let the planter remember that "a
good preparation is half cultivation,"
and not stop until the land is in
proper condition.
In preparing land for tobacco, be
sure you don't plant varieties unsuiied
to the soil or type, else failure is inevi
table. The cause ot so much mean,
nondescript goods on the markets
every year is mainly attributable to
failure in planting the proper vatieties
on the right kind of soil, and plant
ers should carefully note this and sow
seed suited both to soil and type.
If any one knows of a better way
then let him pursue it the writer
knows of none better. And just here
it may be well to state that perfection
is not claimed for any mode or prac
tice recommended in this book, but
only the best methods known to the
author are given, for guiadnce to the
unitiated. We live and learn, but life
is too short to learn every good thing
by experience unaided. Every man
owes something to those who are to
come after him ; to freely give as he
has freely rrceived.
Having put the land in nice "order,"
lay off the rows with a shovel plough,
three feet three inches apart, and fol
low, drilling along the furrow some
good fertilizer at the rate of some one
hundred and fifty to three hundred
pounds per acre, according to the
natural strength of the soil and the
quantity of manure previously applied.
Then follow with one-horse turning
ploughs, lapping four furrows on the
fertilizer trench, and when finished in
this manner your lot is ready to be
planted, when the beds have been
" patted" with hoes, with " pats" two
feet ten inches apart, to mark points
for setting the plants. In the older
portions of the fine yellow tobacco
country the applications are becoming
heavier from year to year, some plant
ers using as much as six hundred
pounds to the acre.
New ground, or old field that has
grown up and been cut down, will re
quire different preparation from old
smooth land. But on the former our
best brights are raised. Anyjprepara
ration that will put the soil in fine
condition, clear of roots, tufts and
trash, is all that is required. Experi
ence teaches that if land is cut down
two or three years previous to its being
prepared for thbacco, it greatly facili
tates the preparation and helps its fer
tility. Much of the vegetable mite
rial, both in and upon the soil, rots,
the roots break easily, and the soil is
altogether lighter and finer.
While it is economy to dispense
with the hand-hoe in making hills on
old land the plough doing all the
work, as it ought ; when it can be well
done yet on stumpy, rooty and rough
land, the hoe is indispensible in the
preparation of a hill, as it should be
made to receive the plant. But before
the hills are made, it may be well, un
less the soil is naturally rich, and such
Is not often the case with soils best
adapted to yellow tobacco, to apply
some fertilizing material to hasten for
ward the plants, and mature them
properly and early. Here commer
cial fertilizers have done, and are
doing their best work. Bulky, coarse
manures often do more barm than
good on new and puffy soils. The
smaller the bulk, and the more con
centrating the fertilizing elements the
more readily they are appropriated
and assimilated by the plants, if of the
right material, and in the most avail
able form. Nitrogen, phosphoric acid,
potash, lime and soda, are most ! nec
essary for the tobacco plant; and a
fertilizer which supplies the relative
quantity of each, and from the proper
sources, will never fail to show good
effects therefrom if the rainfall is suf
ficient to quicken their action.
Most of the soils best adapted to
the finest types of tobacco, especially
bright and sweet fillers, are thin and
poor, and need plant-food to push the
plants forward and rapidly in growth
bnd maturity, so that the product may
be rijened and mellowed, of yellow
color, preparatory to being housed
and cured.
Good crops of fine quality have been
produced on these poor gray soils by
the aid ot fertilizers (commercial)
alone. Extensive areas of gray sa
licious soils in the yellow belt are ren
dered capable cf producing good crops
of fine yellow tobacco, by the aid of
commercial fertilizers alone, when of
composition suited thereto.
MODE OF APPLYING FERTILIZERS,
Planters differ in the manner of ap
plying fertilizers, whether in the hill,
drill or broadcast. That the same
quantity will go further and produce
larger results the first year, for the
quantity used when applied in the hill
or drill, is generally conceded. But
advocates of broadcasting claim that
when the crop, to which the fertilizer
is applied, is to be followed by another
in quick succession to be sown in
wheat as soon as the tobacco is re
moved then broadcasting is best, for
reasons which, seem too apparent to
need explanation.
Having prepared the land for hill
ing apply the fertilizer by whichever
mode the planter prefers, and in such
quantity as the natural strength of the !
soil indicates, laying off the rows three j
feel three inches apart, and make the !
hills about two 'feet ten inches distant
from centre to centre. Mark the
measure on the hoe handle and require
the hillers to apply it frequently as a
guide. The rows should be wider
apart than the hills, to afford proper
cultivation without breaking and bruis
ing the plants at the final ploughing
a matter of no small importance, as
the least blemish on a fine leal nearly
destroys its value as a wrapper.
To Encourage Manufacturing.
fWilmington Messenger. !
The Chamber of Industries last even-;
ing took two steps forward in the mat
ter of inviting and encouraging new
manufacturing enterprises in the city of
Wilmington, especially, and for the
incorporated towns and cities of the
State in general.
The first proposition requests the
Legislature to propose an amendment
to the Constitution authorizing incor-;
porated towns and cities in North
Carolian to exempt from local taxation
the capita!, property and plant devoted
to manufacturing purposes.
This is right, and so Car as we know,
Wilmington is the first city in the
State to move in the direction indica
ted. To cities and towns situated as
she is. this is a necessary move. Our
city tax rate is practically a prohibi-
. mi
Hon ot manufacturing industries, i ne
tax rate here is one and three quarters
per cent. Added to the State and
county taxes, the burdens of taxation
in Wilmington proximate three per
cent. The urofits of manufacturing,
except in some of the novelties protec-
ted by patents, generally are not large
now-adays, and competition is daily
rendering them smaller. Men will not
embark their money, industry and en
terprise in experimental undertakings,
where the rate of taxation sets the
chances acainst them. - A' margin ot
one and three quarters per cent, may
be sufficient to wreck an enterprise at
the beginning, which otherwise might
ultimately turn out a handsome suc
cess. Three per cent, is an obstacle so
formidable as to deter the most enter
prising and ambitious from investing
in manufacturing buildrngs and ma
chinery. It is certain that if North Carolina
towns and cities arc to thrive as manu
facturing .and industrial centers, the
capital, property and plant so employ
ed must go free of excessive local taxa
tion. Other States have practised this
exemption, and grown great, powerful
and rich. Instead of drying up, their
public treasuries have overrun from the
contributions by increased populations
which acquired and created new and
additional properties for taxation. It
is only necessary to instance Georgia
and Pennyslvania.

A. VERY FUNNY-MAN
WHO HAS A WORLb-WIDE REP
.. ..... UTATION. -
C. B. Lewis the Famous Humorist of
the "Detroit Free Press."
As our readers would doubtless like
to know something of the most famous
humorist of the day, we present the
below excellent likene p and the fol
lowing admirable sketch 'by Edmund
Kirke, lately published in Harper's
Monthly Magazine : .
MR. CHARLES B. LEWIS
(better known as M Quad') is perhaps
the most unique and genuine humorist
this country has ever produced.
4 4 4 M Quad' is not a humorous 'ar
tist' a boss mechanic who manufact
ures jokes as a carpenter does packing
boxe?, with saw and jack plane and
much exudation of perspiration. He
is naturally and spontaneously funny.
Humor gushes from him like cham
pagne from an uncorked bottle, bub
bling and effusive, and drenching us
whether we will or not, with laughter.
And there's wisdom in his wit strong,
homely common sense mixed with a
racy unctuous humor which makes his
humor as grateful to our taste as whale
oil is to the palate of an Esquimau.
He 'is of universal relish, as' is wit
nessed by the wide popularity that the
the Detroit Free fress largely owes to
nis coniriuutions.
It is not generally known where he
was born, nor is that of much conse
quence, since his career djd not begin
till he was Mown up, some seventeen
years ago, on an Ohio River steam
boar. He is perhaps the only example
of a man who has been lifted into fame
by being tossed a hundred feet into
the air, and coming down more dead
than alive, to tell the story. He did
this: Standing at his printer's case,
when he was so far recovered as to
limp about, he put into type "How it
feels to be blown up," and the whole
West burst into laughter. That laugh
made M. Quad' famous. He was
then transferred from the composing
room to the .editorial department, and
ever since, short extracts from the
Free Press have been copied into ev
ery journal throughout the country.
About ten years ago he invented
or rather created 4His Honor' and
Bijah' and 'Brother Gardener' of the
'Lime-kiln Club' characters totally
dissimilar, but each as natural, original,
individual, and ludicrous as any -in
Amefican literature.
4Artemus Ward' created one char
acter; 4M. Quad' has given birth to
three, and each one has, during a pe
riod of ten years, given delight to mil
lions. The man is precisely what we are
led to expect from his writings: He
is by turns 'His Honor,' 4Bijah,' and
4Brother Gardener,' with the dry
humor and quaint wisdom that is pe
culiar to each character.
. His 'den,' as he calls his 'sanctum,'
is an upper story of the Free Press
building, is a curiosity shop filled with
odd mementoes and knick-knacks:
Here is a bit of rope that helped to
hang a murderer, and a pair of shack
les of the old slave time ; there are
bullets from Gettysburg, powder-flasks
from the Merrimac, and swords, sabres,
muskets, and shot and shell from a
score of battle fields; while around
the wall, side by side with portraits of
Sheridan and Custer, busts of Grant
and Lee, are pictures ot a dozen of
the most noted criminals. But the
oddest thing in the room is a slender
man of about forty, with close-cropped
gray hair, heavy mustache, keen in
tent eyes, and an earnest, somewhat
eager expression, who sits at an old
fashioned table and looks up with a
smile of welcome as a stranger enters
his apartment. This is M. Quad,'
known among' his personal acquaint
ances as C. B. Lewis. He is modest,
and not at all puffed up by the fact
that he has a weekly audience of a
million, nearly one half of whom are
matter of-fact Englishmen, who take
him with their beefsteak and ale, as a
sure help to a healthv digestion. He
is spoken of as odd and eccentric, and
that he may be, but 1 -incline to the
opinion that this peculiarity is due to
the fact that nature produced him in
one of her genial moods when she
would do the world a kindly turn by
bestowing upon it a gentle soul, who
should do us good by spreading for us
a wholesome feast of mingle4 wit and
wisdom.
HAPPY THE MAX.
BY CHARLES EUGENE BANKS.
Happy the man who in some rural glade
Contented dwells nor of its con 5 nest ires;
The rich, sweet-swelling soil upturning
with his spade
Where the dark earth, with little toil is
made
To yield sufficient for his few desires.
The rush and turmoil of the greedy town,
Its sin and pride and shame to hhn un
known ; . -
Nor beggar's whine, nor surly mammon's
frown, .
Nor cracked-voice venders crying up and
down,
Nor drunkard's oath, nor ruined virtue's
moan.
Instead, the morning pulsing full with life,
O'ertiooded with the varied songs of
birds ;
The pure, fresh air with scents of flowers
rife
Nor discord here; nor sound of sordid
strife.
But eloquence without disturbing words.
With swelling breast he roams the dewy
meads.
The meanest flow'r his Joy and tender
care ; "
The winds that, murm'ring, stir the
tangled reeds,
Fit orchestra adapted to the needs
Of Nature's drama acted for him there.
Of castle massive often he has read.
Of mosque, of temple and cathedral
grand
Yet turns for beauty to the fields instead,
Finds some new. pleasure whereso'er he
treads,
In meadow, wood or on the yielding
sand.
The cliff abrupt ; the river's silver flow ;
The eagle's flight; the tempest-ridden
wind ;
The gleaming salmou swimming to and fro
In quiet pool, the timid, cracef ul roe
All dear companions of his student mind.
For him the peace of close converse with
God,
To him the door of Nature opens wide ;
Tho woods, the hills, the daisy sprangled
sod,
lie loves them all where others blindly
trod
lie moves serene his being satisfied.
Amid such scenes his gentle life is passed,
The ward of Wisdom, learning what is
best ;
His creed to love, his church the vauled
vast,
In contemplation riches at the last
He falls asleep upon a kindly breast.

Excellent Work for North Carolina.
rWilmington Star.
We have had for some days and
have read a part of a very valuable
work just issued by the National Bu
reau of Education entitled "The His
tory of Education in North Carolina,"
by Charles Lee Smith, a native of our
State, and Fellow in History and Pol
itics in Johns Hopkins University. We
purposed writing of this interesting
and instructive volume at length, but
other matters have drawn us off at
present and we can only hurriedly re
fer to it now. It is a credit to the
judgment and ability ot our young
friend, and will do good at home in
telling our people of many things of
which they had no knowledge, and it
will do good abroad in correcting false
impressions and in answering the ig
norant criticisms of certain Massa
chusetts writers who affect to "know
it all, and yet who are extremely ig
norant of historic facts connected with
North Carolina. We thank Mr. Smith
for the thoroughness of his work and
in a few days we hope to give due at
tention to some of the important facts
embodied in his excellent "contribu
tion to American Educational Histo
ry." The following sketch of him is
furnished the Raleigh News- Observer
by Dr. Stephen D. Weeks, another
young North Carolinian, who is de
voting much of his time to historic in
vestigation and composition, and who
gives promise of future distinction and
usefulness. He says :
"Mr. Smith is a young man to have
done such good work. He was born
in Granville county, N. C, August
29, 1865, and is a son of Dr. L. Tur
ner Smith, now of Durham. He was
graduated at Wake Forest with the
degree of B. S. in 1884; during the
fall of that year he taught for Fray
& Morson, in Raleigh ; in January,
1885, became assistant editor of the
Biblical Recorder and continued as
corresponding editor during 1886. In
January, 1886, he entered the Johns
Hopkins University as a graduate
student; was University scholar, x886- .
'87; Fellow in History and Polit
ical Science, i887-'88, and is now
Fellow by courtesy and instructor in
History. He takes his doctor's de
gree in June, and on March 1st, will
become General Secretary of the Char
ity Organization Society of Baltimore
City.

THE STATE GUARD.
AIDED BY THE LEGISLATURE
The
Bill Appropriating $5,000 to
State Guard Becomes a Law.
the
.Wilmington Messenger.
We congratulate the Legislature on
the appreciation the majority of the
two houses have shown by the passage
of the bill appropriating five thousand
dollars to the State Guard, and the es
tablishment of a permanent encamp
ment for perfecting in the military
drill, and training and perfecting the
State militia.
The institution of the State Guard,
as a limited military force of the State,
to be kept in a high state of efficiency
as the nucleus for the organization of
the whole militia of the State, in the
event of need therefor, was a happy
consummation. , It has given us an ef
ficient, well drilled and finely dis
ciplined military force, always ready
and in easy call for any emergency,
while it relieves the masses of our
people from the annoyance of the an
nual musters that were required under
the old militia system, when the law
compelled all able bodied persons, be
tween eighteen and forty-five, to turn
out once a year) armed and equipped,
for the annual drill of the State mili
tia, by districts, and Occasionally for
general muster at regimental head
quarters. Under that system we had no effi
cient militia, and in an emergency the
civil authorities could not have de
pended upon the military power of
the State for effective aid in the exe
cution of the law, the maintenance of
peace or suppression of disorder. But
all that is changed now. We have
distributed over the State, fine military
companies of young, vigorous, enthu
siastic men, proud of their organiza
tion, armed and equipped in all re
spects as the soldiers of the United
States Army, and upon the request of
the civil authority, and at command
of the Governor, can be thrown and
massed in any portion of the State in
a few hours.
This is our guarantee for the peace
of the State. It is the great protect
ing arm which North Carolina has
thrown around the women and child
ren ; conscious of the power and se
curity of which, we live and move un
disturbed, without apprehension of or
ganized violence or dangerous disorder
from any source or quarter.
The legislature has done well to sup
port and promote the efficiency of the
State Guard, and those who, from
want of understanding, have opposed
what better intelligence insisted upon
and secured, will not have long to
wait to be convinced of the terrible
mistake that would have been made,
could they have had their way.
The selection and acceptance of the
site at Wrightsville, for the Encamp
ment ground tendered to the State in
fee simple, was fortunate in all re
spects. The three railroad systems
concentrating here, through their con
nections with the other (the Richmond
and Danville) permenate the whole
State, and will bring the military com
panies to this point more readily and
with less cost than to any other point
on the coast.
The location is admirable for the
seacoast battery which the general
Government is to establish for us; it
is pleasant, attractive and healthy,
and within fifteen minutes, by rail, of
the largest city in the State.
Onward the Watchword.
New Bern Journal
1S89 will make imperative demand
upon North Carolina. Onward is the
watchword. The barriers must be re
moved whenever they are found. The
East and the West must be linked to
gether with iron bands and New Bern
and Wilmington be the gates of her
commerce. There is no littleness in
North Carolina. WTe are not envious
of Charleston and Norfolk, but we are
jealous of our own honor and ambi
tious of honorable achievements.
For reasons utterly incomprehensible
to ordinary minds, the fairest part of
North Carolina the garden spot of
the world has been permitted to lan
guish for want of the fostering care of
the State. Let the Executive, the
Legislature and the people awake to a
proper realization of the situation, and
1889 will be the most glorious year in
our history.
