Iq South Georgia considerable at tention has been paid to the cultiva tion of the pecan, and there is every reason to believe that it could be made profitable. It is a greit in dustry in Texas, and in South Caro lina it is becoming quite important. Mr. Herbert Post, of Fort Wortl , Texas, a recognized authority on pecan cultur has an article in th July number of the Southern CuU tivator which is of practical value to thoiie who contemplate engaging iu this industry. Mr. Post saye: "I have made the pecan a study for years, and obtained the opinion ol the best informed growers an others who have inyestigated the subject, and the weight of testimony is that when you once destroy the tap root of the pecan you have de stroyed the beariug qualities of the tree." Mr. Post says yoanjj pKsi-i 6 whose tap roots and other roots have biert cut will still make handsome shade trees but will not bear fruit. He addt; 'It is only in the past ' two or three years that this fact has been developed by investigating the fail ure oflong.planted trees to bear nuts, and the cause of the failure, the cutting of the tap roots, h peeu plainly tstaolithea. J here is paly one way to tarnsplant a pcau with supcea.3, and that is to get the ropts entire and unbroken, and that must be done very soon after they commence growing, as the roots grow very rapidly, so that when the young tree is onlv eight inches above ground tapthe root is tow and onebalf feet long below. - To remove such a tree rt quires more skilly patience and care than nine tenths of the people possess. Hence it is unsafe to advise it." It has been demonstrated that the soil and climate of a great part of North Carolina ia well adapted to pecan culture, and it may yet become One of our piofitable. industries. Mr. F. G. Middleton, the ener getic and aggressive proprietor of the Kock Spring .Nurseries, pear Warsaw, which are rapidly ppming into popular favpr aqd ex tensive patronage, is making great success of pecan culture and the product is the finest flavored of any we have ever tasted. The prices he charges, tco, are really wonderfully low. We are glad to note that tl is gen tlemen is making a success cf all s pecies of desirable f ruit3 also, which he sells at most reasonable prices. W rite to him for a catalogue.

BAD BANKING- LouisvUic Courier Journal. 1 he numerous bank failures in vasious parts ot the country have pfobably done more than any other single cause to delay the icstora- tioa ot coufi ience. It is important therefore, to note to what extent these failures have been due to a departure ficm conservative raeth- od?. The remark does not apply to the caeca of suspension of pem fettly solvtht banks in consequence of local paiiics that cause run6 upon them. Tneae suspensions may be followed by considerable temporary inconvenience and in cidental losses, but the depositors will ultimately be paid in full. Of failures proper among banks it is to be noted that the greater part of them were caused by errors of management or by gross miscon duct on the part of officers and d rectors. Many of them were in terested in 'booms," cr specula tions of various kinds In some in stances the funds of the banks were arge'y borrowed by the officers or directors, who used them to float various questionable "Speculations In other cases bt.nk funds have been freely employed to support local projects of too daring a nature for the resources ot the prtjec tors. The existing monetary dUturs bance has been used to account for many bank failures of this st rt though it is clear upon invebtiga tion that th,e real cau.ee of the trouble is much more remote, With more prosperous times the evil day m'ght have been post ponea, ana, in some cases, nnuer improyed management, disaster might have been entirely averted In aDy event, the origin ;! cause of the trouble was ia the manage ment, and the monetary stringency simply 6Dpplied the occasion which brought the inherent weakness to light.- It is important to take note of these facts, because thereby we get a more correct view of the trouble that is really de $o th stringency q' money. The injury sustained in this way is great enough withou charging it witb disasters th,at had their origin a,t tioaes when tponey was in excessive supply, and when its abundance fostered the spirit of speculation, which is always activ n flush times. The misfortunes that have overtaken financial in stitntions that were grossly mis- mabagedMo not furnish the Bh'ghti est "ground for dietrrjst o tjo&e that j Uave adhered .steadily to sound and conservative methods. It ia also worthy of remark that the better class of banks have re cently been the object of rnnoh rjps discriminatirg abuse, beoauM they have nt been willing to reduce their reserves below the point of safety in order to foster the specu lative eeherucs of people who de sire to borrow money.' The pro gres3 of events, however, has fully vindicated the wisdom of a comer vative policy in this respect. Thise banks that have confined their' efforts to supply the demands of egitimate busiuess to a reasonable extent have had abundant reason to congratulate themselves upon the course they have elected to pursue. THE COLORADO PVNIC- The swiftness with which the pen atties lor ner nnancial tolly are visited upon Colorado ougfctj to J Silver extremists Ot that btate asl well as of the whole country. C J It was only last week, as the that the wild convention met at Denver and threatened war, anarchy and repudiation if the United States Government should not continue to provide a market for Colorado's silver bullion. This convention not only proclaimed that Colorado wculd boycott any'portion of the country which ofcposed sneh a silver policy, but it served notice that in the event of the discontinuance of that policv the people of the State would re pudiate outright their just debts ne convention was a large one. and took the action which it did take with an overwhelming unanim ity.

THE A- Si N. C BAILEOAD. The directors of the .&N. .EE. met in Goldsboro last Thursd y and declared a dividend of 2 per cent., payable September 1st, 1893. This is the secoiid dividend the road ha3 ever paid in its 38 years of ex istence. The first dividend was paid a year age, leaving $9,000 in the treasury. This year after the dividend is pvld, over $20,000 will still be left in the treasury. It takes nearley &db,000 to pay a dividend of 2 per cent., there being nearly $1, 800,000 Of st jck in the road. The State gei3 as dividend on her stock $26,500. Lenoir county gets $1,000 on its stock, and we suppose there is about half as mucn private stock in the county, so that about $1,500 a year in dividends on private and county stock is coming into the county under the present able and progressive management of this railroad. Nearly all the people of tins county desire that the present splendid in nagement le continued, in order that the road may continue toprosper and that the county may continue toreceivc dividends from its stocks. . In addition to paying dividends for two years in succession, there have been great improvements made to the road, in improving a number of depots aud in the puchase of new engines, freight tiud pasenser cars President Chadwick took hold of the road when its former pre&ident nad, said it culd not be run any longer without more "outside aid, paid off a big floating debt left ty the former acrr -nistration, and has actually brought the road to a divi dend paying basis. We copy the following from recent issue of the Raligh News Observer- Citron icle: "We are glad to see that the A. & JN. C, h. 1. has declared a dividend ot 2 per cent., payable September 1st. Last year a similar tiiidond was paid, and we understand that the railroad commissioners who lately went over the road, making a careful examination, found the pro.- perty :u excellent condition. As the State is largely interested in this property, we are much pleased to learn of its good condition, for we were apprehensive lest the Kinston branch of the W. & W. would prove a great disadvantage to it." Ihe present management has con ducted the road on strictly business principles and has managed it econ omically, If good work deserves commendation, then Mr, Chadwick deserves to be commended for his good work by a reflection. We have no doubt he will be re-elected. Kinston Free Press. 1 We haye taken the liberty of putting some lines of the above ar tide it Italics, in order to call espe cial attention to them, because it has been said by the few personal opponents of Mr. Chad wick's ad ministration that nearly all the ieo pie oi jjenoir county desired a cnange, yet tne f ree jf'ress tays tiist the opposite, and shows conclu sively why because the county is now getting a thousand dollars a year in dividends ou its stock in the road, and its citizens, private stock holders, $500 additional, when formerly not a cent was paid in divi-. denda to auy one. This is how Lgi noir county looks at it from a prac tical business standpoint and this is an age of practical Business. And o the Stale of North Carolina, which so largely owns the road and controls its administration, and now receives anunnally $26,500 in divi dends where formely she got not a cent, should retain in the presidency of this road the man ' who has thus evinced such business capacity and achieved such successfr.l results Ed.
