ESTABLISH A SEED FARM.
Baptist Female University
Notes.
The University has a large en
rollment this term, about 180
girls have registered. The fac
ulty is one of the best to be found
in the South.
The faculty and students at
tended services at the Raleigh
Baptist Tabernacle last night;
there being anniversary services
held by former pastors of the
church. The services were
greatly enjoyed.
We are sorry to state that we
have several on the sick list; but
are glad to say not seriously ill.
We hope to see them out again
soon.

We copy an editorial paragraph
on first page from our esteemed
neighbor, the Scotland Neck Com
monwealth, about the establish
ment of a seed farm in this section
which, deserves more (Can a pas
sing notice.
W buy large qnan tities of seed
every year that could as 'well be
rajsed hete at home, saviug trans- L
portanon charges and big profits
which now go elsewhere.
It may not be generally known
but it is a fact that we already
have a seed farm on a small sca'e
located about five miles from
Rich Sqnare in Bertie coonty,con
ducted by Mr. Geo. Hampton
Barnes, of Roiobel. Mr. Barnes
has built np a good trade and rep
n tat ion for his garden and flower
seed and bnlbs. We happen to
know that last season he shipped
quite a large quantity to Northern
seedsmen, who doubtless sold some
of them to our dealers and farmers
in this section. Mr. Barnes wonld
be a suitable mau to put in charge
of a mnch larger seed farm than he
now conducts.
We wish to make a suggestion
about the establishment of snch
farm. It occurs to us that a com
pany could I e organized with a
capital stock of from one to five
thousand dollars, with power to in
crease it if desired, to be divided
into shares of ten dollars each.
Land could be rented or leased
with privilege of buying and the
business started with a compara
tive small outlay. If the merchant
and other seed buyers in three,
four or five counties eonld be in
riaced to take stock in the compa
. -ny its success would be assured
from the start
We shall be glad to hear from
i nr enterprising citizens about
this matter.

on Account of Prevalence o ,,
' Typhoid Fever- President '. .
s'. ' '1-' ', Statement. f
The State Normal and Indus
trial CoUegejt Greensboro, jvltb
its four hundred and flfjy stu4
dents haa closed its doors until
January 1, J900, for fear of an
epidemic of typhoid fever, four
cases having already developed
with nearly fifty others on the
sick list,
Those on the sick list are re-:
covering, tbe best attention from
the College authorities, ablo
physicians and trained nurse?.
and a large number of the ooble
ladies of Greensboro have ten
dered their services as nurses.
President Mclver has given
out the following statement:
"By the authority of the exec
utive committee of tbe board of
directors, telegraphed to me Sat
urday night and Sun-Jay morn
ing, the State Normal and Indus
trial College has closed until Jan
uary 2, with tbe understanding
between the students and faculty
that the time lost between now
and the Christmas holidays will
be added at the end of the college
year, tnus running the annual
session into the latter part of
June. This action was taken be
cause of tbe lare numberof stu
dents sick with malarial fever,
and especially because on Satur
day I was informed by the phy
sician that we had at least two
cases and probably three or four
cases of lyphvid fever. One hour
after learning that there was a
case of typhoid fever here I as
sembied tl e students and inform
ed them, asking them to inform
their parents immediately. A
meeting of the faculty was called
and with their unanimousendorse
inentof the plan I assembled tbe
students, all of whom, except ten
thought it better to discontinue
college work until after tbe holi
days. I immediately telegraph
ed to the members of tbe execu
tive committee, and on Sunday
morniug made official announce
inentof the suspension. The ma
larial troubles have prevailed
here to an unusual extent for tbe
past two to three weeks, and on
the 15th instant I wrote request
ing the State Board of Health to
come and inspect (be premises.
U that time I could not discover
any sufficient local cause for the
unusual amount of malaria! trou
ble. Since then by continuing
morning, and the third on Satur
daylght at one o'clock. None
of those who died had, been sick
for a very long while. One of
them wa in bed only eight days,
sod i in another case there were
serious com plait ts in addition to
the malarial m.1

there 5 has been practically no
slcknessdarinir these three weeks
among students that do not board
Id the dormitories, whether rest

.... - -
families.. There is no general
cause for this trouble peculiar to
Greensboro. I believe it to be
tbe fault of a general visitation of
malarial fever throughout the
Piedmont section of the State as
shown by .the State bullitin of
health ."published at Raleigh, in
tensified and aggravated by some
defect In "a 'sewer pipe near tbe.
main college-dormitory. What
ever defect thero is in thisorany
other particular will be thorough
ly investigated and remedied.
I do not -doubt that this can be
dune thoroughly and completely
in time for the regular ODtmi ne
on January 2d. Permit me toex
press my grateful appreciation of
the brave, loyal and helpful sprit
exhibited by the students during
tbe past week. I also appreciate
thoroughly the sympathetic and
cordial offers of help from hun
dreds of people in Greensboro
and the expressions of sympathy
and encouragement from patrons
and others throughout the State.
