ollua Farmer.
Capt. M.J. 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. No, who will enter the
contest ?

His Confirmation.
Collector Iilias, who returned jester
day afternoon from a trip which included
Chicago and the Nutional capital, when
asked tbia morning about the question
of his confirmation by the I'nited States
Senate, said there was no doubt in liis
mind that the confirmation would be
made all right, probably next week
or the week after. He also said in
reply to a question, that he did not know
upon what grounds Senator Vance was
basins the opposition to him.
The Collector says the Fair is a great
exposition in fact, too great tor a visi
tor to eraspin a few davs' stay. He was
weary almost the first day be spent there.

For tbejmit week or two freight on
the Western North Carolina branch of
the R. & D. road has been rushing. So
heavy has the traffic been that the rail
road authorities have secured three ol
the largest engines in use, commonly
snoken of amone the "boys" as "hogs."
These big engines will carry across the
mountains one-third more freight than
will the ordinarr freight engines used on
this road. Chief Dispatcher Newell says
that recently tha K. & D. has received on
an average 80 tars a day at Paint Rock,
which, together with local freights,
) amounted to at least five trains a day.
