Among the mis-spellings which

seed is desired for the extraction of
oil, it is often asked whether it would
be advantageous for the fanner to ex
change cotton for cotton-seed meal, in
the proportion of two tons of the for
mer to one ton of the latter. I should
unhesitatingly answer yes, do so by
all means. The cotton seed loses
none of its fertilizing qualities by be
ing crushed to liberate the oil; iu fact
it gains thereby, for the oil is in no
sense useful as a manure and the hulls
also contain very!; few useful ingred-
we j ients. We exchange two tons of cot-
see oftenest perpetrated by our gener- i ton seed, containing

"chesnut," and "lovliness." Let us

We don't like to see some of sour
brightest and best newspaper men
leaving the State, because of greater
inducements elsewhere. North Caro
lina ought not to allow it. If other
states bid for our best talent, it is pur
business to "raise the bid" every time.

THE GROWTH OF RALEIGH.
The truth is that the city is putting
on the proportions of a metropolis
with all that the word implies. There '
is a steady and rapid increase in pop
ulation. There never has been as
great a demand for houses. All the
suburban settlements are growing and
with the contemplated extension of
the street-car lines will soon become
towns in themselves. The State is
rapidly' learning to look to Raleigh a
its industrial and commercial, as well
as social, political and educational
centre; Enlargement and improve
ment are everywhere the order of the
day. Railway facilities are multi
plied and there is a general tendency,
to break the bond of anything in the
way of a pent up Utica, and to exer
cise the powers we possess in the wid
est fields possible of attainment.
