Civilization as history shows it is like
a road in the hill country; up and down;
born; iff poverty and ignorance, and dy
ing in affluence and pleasure; ; thus the
history of the past is but the; history of
the rise and fall of nations. However,
from the high tide of each nation some-
taing has beenpreserved to add to our
permanent progress. . The question
often arises, Will pur magnificent civil
ization go on to perfection or rot at the
top, like other civilizations.. The hope
of a country is in her succeeding gener
ations. The boys and giria of today are
the men and women of the next. gener

WEIGHTS PER BUSHEL IN
NORTH CAROLINA,
Department of Agriculture Bulletin.
. The following table of the legal
weights of agricultural productions has
been compiled ' from The Code, with
amendments since made. It conflicts
in several particulars with the weights
as given for this State in the May re
port of the United States Department
of Agriculture.; This" table is the cor
rect one. All of the weights are prob
ably too high for the bushel measure of
the average prod actions, but this is es
pecially t'ja case with the average wheat
crop, which won't weigh 60 lbs. per
bushel, nor will oats weigh 82 lbs.' nor
buckwheat 50 lbs. Peanuts vary m
weight according to the variety.
This ia the table: Wheat, 60. lbs. ;
rough rice, 44 lbs. ; rye. 56 lbs.; corn,
56. lbs.: 7 buckwheat, 50 ibs.: barley.

A good deal off confusion is caused
on account of the difference between
the "dry measure" quart and the "fluid
