JUTE PLANTING.-Mr. P. V. Ducros
of the Pecan Grove plantation has
proved beyond cavil the adaptability
of our soil and climate to the success
ful cultivation of the jute plant. He
has cultivated several acies, which
presents a healthy appearance, and
inspires a more extensive application
to forward this new industry. We
are of opinion that it would;pay bet
ter to raise jute than corn; that it
will yield better rewards on account
of the facility with which it is tilled
and its nature to surmount weather
drawbacks.-St. Bernard Eaile.
