Fagg, who is as thorough a farmer as he is a fox hunter, has de termined to issue a challege to the far mers of North Carolina, with a view to seeing just what the lands of the Old North State can do when given a chance. The challege is a sweeping one, and the contest is open to evcr lar mcr in North Carolina who cuts to enter. It is that he will S iv one acre of ground in wheat, will defy any tanner to beat linn vield. The land he proposes to this contest is a portion ot im! in tlie use in splendid his nroniTtv on North Mam Ins "pavcii farm," as he calls it. He will not use a pound ot fertilizer on the proline, hut will allow the other competitors in Un contest to use as much tnanuie or fertilizer as they wish. The only conditions he imposes ore that the land used in the contest shall be carefully laid out by disinterested par ties atid that the "yield shall also h: measured bv persons who have no part in the contest. Capt. Fagg has his ground nearly readv now, and believes that the yield on the acre thus set apart bv him will take the blue ribbon against allcomers. Capt. Fagg is in earnest in this matter and will be glad to have his challenge accepted by farmers in any section ol the State. The challenge is out. The idea is a splendid one.
