A THOUSAND MILE JAUNT THROUGH NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA. (Conlinued from last issue.) Nowhere probably, in our "whole jturney did we see better crops and more prosperous looking 'homes than in the Cape Fear section in the north ern part of Bladen and the southern portion of Cumberland. The cotton and corn crops were unexcelled by any that we saw throughout our whole itenerary. One man "with whom "we stopped lal night, stated that he had nearly one hundred acres in cot ton and was expecting something like & hundred bales. With cotton up as high as it has been in the last several weeks, one hundred bales will net him a right nice sum. Then are many items of expense, however, which are connected with the cultivation of the fleecy staple which bring the amount cleared on a bale to almost, a mite. We continued to see good farming as we advanced northward toward Fay etteville until Rockfish creek bridge was reached. After passing this point the country didn 't seem to be quite so prosperous until one reaches the im mediate vicinity of the capital city of Cumberland. Fayetteville. To the people of the eastern section of the State the progressive old town of Fayetteville is more or less famil iar. To the student of North Carolina history it is no. less well known. Many places of interest attract the visitor as he drives up the streets which have many times resounded with the tramp of the Scotch Highlander, as he marched to the weird strains of his be loved bag pipe. Here is the home of Scotchmen and if you greet any one on the street by the name of "Mac," you will make no mistake in his title, we have been told. The "Mac's"' are not quite as numerous as that, but they are there neverthel&s. No better citizens in the State can be found than those Scotchmen in the Cape Fear valley. From a straggling village of Co lonial days Cross Creek (the old name) has grown into the modern city of Fayetteville. You will not "find the sleepy old town of olden days, but a progressive, "wide-a-wake city of the present greets one's attention. Broad, well paved streets are to be lound, brilliantly lighted by electricity at night. The old market house, an im posing structure of olden-times, is especially beautiful at night with its myriads of electric bulbs. The old hi 'habitants who were accustomed to bring their produce to this place of sale would not recognize the old edifice in its gala attire of electric lights. Perhaps no city in the State has better railroad facilities than Fayette- .ville. It is a veritable center of rail roads. A person can catch a train at almost any time of the day or night. Our remarks about this interesting city must not be concluded without mention of beautiful "Ilaymount,'1 the residential portion of the city Much higher than the business district, this part of the city is the most beau tiful. Magnificent homes, which are a credit to any city are found in this section of town. It was our pleasure to walk out through Ilaymount and it us needless to say that Ave were im pressed with the homes of Fayette ville's industrious inhabitants. The entertainment we received in the capital city of old Cumberland was all that could be desired and we were loath to leave the city with its hospitable people. Our time being limited and our horses somewhat re freshed from their stop in fayette ville, we resolved to pursue our jour ney toward Greensboro. Monday, the 5th of September, found us leaving the old town on the upper Cape Fear behind with our faces turned toward the wilds of Harnett County. After passing out of Cumberland we were lost in the wilderness of Harnett, nearly a whole day we traveled with out seeing much of life except an ac casional hawk or the face of a negro as lie peeped around the corner of his dilapidated cabin. Few white people were seen during the entire day. The country, was somewhat hilly but very sandy. Having procured, happily, be fore leaving Cumberland, some fodder we fed our horses at a branch fat away from any human habitation. Our menu for dinner offered nothing more inviting than a drink-of branch water served from the watering bucket of the horses. Our faithful horses finish ed their repast of fodder, having been fed in the middle of the road inter ruption was not at all feared in that country we wera not only ready to move on but were anxious to get out of that country. As we traveled during tbe after noon, pangs of 'hunger began tdVfeake possession of us; but there was no re lief in sight. The nearest towiiwas miles away and could not be reached by supper time, much less by dinner time. Even a crust of corn bread would have been as welcome as a cool draught of water is acceptable to the thirsty warrderer in the Sahara desert. Finally, late in the afternoon, when visions of eating our horJes floated in our dreamjas we took "cat naps" the barking.of a dog was heard in the dis tance. , We knew that starvation no longer was to haunt us but a nice hot supper awaited us at some friendly house. Imagine our disappointment when we got nearer to the gaunt little animal who was announcing our ap proach fiy frantic lung-efforts and per ambulations up and down an old rai? fence- imagine our chagrin to find nothing but an ancient log hut with an old negro man dozing in front. Not even a chicken walked around th yard' the negro tnd the dog seemed to be the only living beings in miles. Our first efforts to call the atten tion of the old darkey were in vain. The bouse was situated about one hundred and fifty yards from the road" and the ok fellow had his back turn ed, furthermore he seemed to be deaf. A venture over in the field was out of the question because the hungry look ing dog defied all trespassers to enter his stamping ground. The wind hap pened to be favorable or some other good fate was in our favor for we finally got the attention of the old negro. Painfully he ambled down to the lence and using his hands as a kind of ear trumpet finally made out our frantic question as to whether he had anything that could be eaten, whether cooked or not, dead or alive. No, he had nothing to eat whatever. His wife had gone to some cross-roads store after some "grub," as he called it, and would not be back before night. The dog encouraged by his master's nearness becami bolder and jumped the fence. It looked like his next move would be to come up in our buggy and attack us. We thought we were in a hostile country sure enough when the very dogs wanted to eat us up and we ourselves nearly famished. Noticing some apples nearby in the field we asked the old man if he wouldn 't sell us enough of his apples to eat. He seemed very reluctant at first and insisted that they were green. Green or not we had to have some thing, so he was finally persuaded to part with about a half dozen of his precious apples. They were of very poor quality, but we were ready to eat almost anything. After procuring the precious fruit we made haste to depart from such an inhospitable country. H. S. S. To be Continued.) The canvas in the Sixth Congress ional District, will begin the 24th and will be at Elizabethtown the 27th. It may be that the committees can ar range for Mr. Godwin and Mr. Meares to speak at Clarkton the night of the 27th as they god to Whiteville the next day. Mr. Godwin will speak at Lisbon October 10th and at Carver's Creek October 11th. The joint canvas at Warsaw be tween Dr. J. M. Faison and George E. Butler was something "warm." Dr. Faison 's rejoinder was severe. ""Mr. Butler's championing that school law ought to be properly understood by the people. There was no excuse for a negro committeeman being in joint control over white and colored schools. Mr. R. D. Caldwell, chairman of the finance committee of the Wilmington Charlotte Highway is. right when he says that "unquestionably the most direct route will be the one finally selected,!! Some of our friends in Columbus may suggest going by Flor ence and Fayetteville, or possibly take in Columbia.. Have as many routes as you please, gentlemen, but suppose we go to Charlotte. We hear some ser iously considering a route by Eliza bethtown. Build a road from Char lotte to Wilmington the most direct route and then build your roads into that, gentlemen. The Democratic State Executive Committee will meet in Raleigh today to select a candidate for State Auditor to succeed the lamented Dr. B. F. Dixon, whom the State loved. Increase In Population. Fusan and Jinsen are the two prin cipal ports of Korea. Fusan is one of the best ports in the far east, only 30 miles from the northern extremity of Tsushima island, Japan. 'The town has fine streets and is densely populated All over the town commercial activity is In evidence. The population in cludes 20,000 Japanese, whose admin istration of the town is rapidly in creasing its prosperity. Jinsen, open to trade since 1882, was then only a email fishing village. It is also pros perous, with a population of 5,500, one third Japanese. TO FATTEN TURKEYS Approach of Thanksgiving Day Brings Matter Up to Farmer. Demand Is for Plump, Well-Fattened Birds, and Extra Effort Required to Produce This Kind Will Be Well Repaid. With, the approach of Thanksgiving and the holiday season, the attention of all who raise poultry naturally turns towards the fattening of the surplus stock, including ' all the tur keys not to be kept over for breeding purposes. All poultry in proper con dition sells well at this season, but turkeys, particularly, sell best of all. And of all poultry none pays so well for the extra flesh put on as the tur key, for the larger the birds are the more we can realize a pound for them, writes W. F. Purdue In Ranch and Range. This, being a fact. In the first place every effort should be made by alt turkey growers to raise only large birds for the market, a3 large as Is possible to do bo without Injury to the breeding stock. It is possible to get turkeys too large for breeding pur poses and the turkeys that are over grown and leggy In appearance do not make good market turkeys. There fore, good judgment should be used in breeding, the object being to breed birds as large as possible and at tbb same time avoid breeding overgrown, gangling birds. Inbreeding seems to ruin the vitality of turkeys quicker than any of our domestic fowls, and this should be guarded against. The birds need good, strong blood behind them to carry them through. None should be marketed but well fattened turkeys. The demand is for plump, well fattened birds, and the ex tra effort required to produce this kind will be well repaid. It costs no more to make a pound of turkey meat than a pound of pork, and the former commands a price greatly In excess of that of the latter. Turkeys that are not large enough to go on the market for the Thanksgiving trade should be kept over for Christmas when the late and small birds ought to be in prime condition. The Christ mas market generally caters more any way to smaller turkeys, yet plump and well fattened, while the Thanksgiving market demands the largest and best turkeys produced. Turkeys Intended for the market should be allowed a limited grain ra tion for the first ten days, gradually increasing the food until the" are com fortably on a full grain ration. If the flock contains many late fowls, which should first gain in size and frame, sometimes before the actual fattening process begins they should be fed such food as will develop bone and muscle. Corn, oats and wheat In equal quantities supplemented by some kind of animal food, if insects are scarce, such as beef scraps or even sweet skimmilk, is a good ration for this purpose. This will produce bone and flesh, aiding nature to develop them into properly filled out birds. They should not be overfed at this period," only giving them enough feed to keep them in a growing, thrifty condition. If this is followed with the small birds, or even with the whole flock so long as the feeding is not overdone, they can gradually be brought up to a full grain ration with out danger of any serious results fol lowing. It frequently happens that feeding turkeys a full grain ration at first results in crop bound or indiges tion, which brings about serious trouble and very often a loss of some of them. TIME TO HARVEST C0WPEAS When Sown Alone for Ensilage Crop Should Be Cut at About Same Maturity as for Hay. When sown alone cow-peas should be harvested for ensilage at about the same maturity as for hay. They should be cut only a short time before going into the silo, raked, green, plac ed in small bunches, or, better still, loaded" on the wagon directly from the windnm. When planted with corn the combined crop may be har vested with the corn-binder and han dled in the same manner and as eas ily as corn planted aide for ensilage. Cow-Pea Harvester. For hay, cow-peas should be cut when the first pods and some leaves begin to turn yellow. Cow-pea hay cures mere slowly than alfalfa but It should be handled in cur ing In about the same manner. Cut ting should not begin In ths morning until the dew Is off and the hxy should be raked and allowed to cui in the windrow a short time. The picture shows a cow-pea har vester attachment for the mowing ma chine, showing the vine-lifters on guards and a windrowlng attachment. These machines are almost indispens able where large crops are to be har vested. Remedy for Pin Worms. These parasites usually infest the rectum only, and medicines given through the mouth have very little effect upon them. They are best re moved by injecting a stringent solu tion into the rectum, after it has been emptied. These are advised: Alum, one ounce to a quart of warm water The water obtained by boiling oak leaves often works well. Some ad vise the use of raw linseed oil one quart and turpentine two ounces. Either of the above ought to give good results. Spring Lambs. The best spring lambs gro-wu at the New Hampshire state school came from a cross between the Merino and the Southdown. Japanese Peanuts. A Japanese official report gives the area of peanuts in Japan in 1907 as 14,825 acres, yield 1,302,857 bushels The total exports in the same year were 10,185,181 pounds, 86 per cent. jelng shipped to the United States. Poultry on Every Farm. Each farm should have at least a small flock of poultry as almost enough feed to keep the fowls would otherwise be wasted. HANDLE TO UP-END BARRELS. Direction! for Making Device That Will Materially Aid One In Han dling Heavy Objects. The ordinary way of upending bar rels is to take- hold of the edge at the floor or ground and lift, which is quite1, hard on the back as well as the hand that grasps the barrel rim, writes Don Fa. Upending a Barrel. C. Higbee in Popular Magazine. If you have many barrels to handle, the device shown in Fig. 1 will be of great assistance. The construction of the device is simple and it can be made in a few minutes' time. The handle is about three feet long, on the lower end of which is fastened a block having one side hollowed out to fit the curvature of the barrel. An iron hook is fastened in the wood 6 or 8 inches below the hand grip. The, handle Is used as shown in Fig. 2.. USE COTTON-SEED PRODUCTS Oklahoma Crushers Start Campaign of Education Among farmers, Advising Use of Meal. A campaign of education has been started by cotton-seed- -crushers, of Oklahoma" among the farmers of the state to use meal and other products of cotton seed instead of raw seed,' as many dot present. At a meeting held In Oklahoma city It was decided to ask President Con nors of the State Board of Agricul ture to make an address to farmers on cotton-seed products as stock food. "There Is as much nourishment In cotton-seed meal as in raw cotton seed," said Sidney Roberts, Wynne wood cotton man, "and so farmers can make money by bringing us their seed. The mills will give 3,500 pounds of meal for 2,000 pounds of seed, and itwill go just as far. Down in Texas the farmers appreciate the value of cotton-seed meal as a stock food, be cause it goes so far. There the oil mills sell at home all the meal they make. In Wynnewood we dispose of only one-half of 1 per cent, at home." Flies and Horses. An Eastern (Pa.) reader of the Phil adelphia Record wants to know "what is good to keep flies from a horse?" The following are recommended: 1. Take the horse into the yard, and, having-provided a pailful of wa ter, a sponge and a piece of carbolic or whale oil soap, first wash the legs of the horse and then the whole body, leaving some soapsuds to dry upon the skin. 2. Moisten the hair, especially of the tail and nostrils, with 1 a strong decoction of hazelnut leaves. B means of this decoction the eggs which the flies lay on the skin of the horse are also destroyed. Well Preserved Butter. Thirteeiyears ago a Delaware farm er lowered 'wo pounds of butter in a tightly covered bucket in a well to cool off. The string broke and the bucket went to the bottom. A few days ago the farmer was clearing out his well and found the bucket of but terfipifind and sweet as a nut. Hauling Manure. Manure can be hauled and scattered over some portion of the farm every month in the year to good advantage It is much better to leave it on the land than in the barnyard or in piles near the farm buildings. The manure spreader is a wonderful help in light ening the work of unloading and ob taining an even distribution over the soil. leneral FdrmNotes Rye Is coming in favor this fall. Level cultivation saves moisture. Water is of Inestimable value in the garden. Disposition has an influence on the value of a horse of any type, Are you sure of every cow's yiarly output of butter-fat and milk? Calves should be well bedded so that they will be dry and warm. Be ever watchful for the appear ance, in your hives, of foul brood. Every ewe in the flock should do her separate part and perform her work well. Quality, while not easy to define, is one of the most essential points in horse flesh. Early varieties of apples and pears should be picked before they have become soft. Leaving grain in shock for from four to six weeks is attended with a great deal of risk. There is nothing gained in keeping animals in the flock simply because they once were good breeders. A good ditch should be dug around the poultry yards to prevent water getting In and to keep them dry. If the heavy mares do not produce good foals by a certain mating then try another stallion of the same class Very young calvj sometimes have a form of scours that is due to a de fect in the constitution or to prenatal conditions. Milk at a stated hour both morning and evening, and keep everything about the stable and the dairy clean and fresh. Ewes thatr possess strong constitu tions should be selected for breeding purposes. An insect pest that has caused severe losses where currants are grown Is the currant aphis, which pro duces reddish blisters on the leaves. If you have not killed that surplus rooster, get rid of him at once for he not. only makes no profit himself, but devours the profit returned by others This is the time of year to keep that green scum ut of the poultry drink ing pans. TyfHyrid lurks therein, and chickens have typspiq n tne rail, Scald often. HOW TO PROTECT AMERICA. (Senator Gore.) We can not long prosper behind the wall of a monopoly, tariff. A recent Congress appropriated $55,000,000 to open rivers and harbors for the stim ulation of trade. The same Congress raised the tariff to discourage trade. When were we right and w'hen were we wrong? The real way to success lies in making better American goods cheaper than they can be made else where, aud the cotton manufacturer of Charlotte at that could beat the world, so much higher is the efficiency of labor in America. It is true that you pay your operators 30 to 40 per cent more than they, do abroad, but this is' true of all business. The farm hand in America gets ten times as much as the farm hand-in India, yet the American farmer competes with the world successfully; If you realy want to protect Ameri cah labor, keep out these pauper labor ers, who are coming over here. Forty six per cent of the population of Rhode Island is foreign born. FIGURE OUT YOUR PART. If the New York bond syndicate should succeed in forcing North Carolina to pay their claim -of $27,000, 000, for bonds issued and s-tolen by the negroes and scalawags in 1868-9, it would be acout $1.3 each for every man, woman and child hi tire State to pay. Or it would increase taxes to about $5 on the $100, if paid off by one levy. If yon pay taxes on $1,000 valuation, your part would be only $50. Figure up your part and ses if von think the bond syndicate which got the stolen bonds for practically noth ing, should recover the. amount, alonr with enough to pay Mr. Butler a big tee for running this campaign and making the collection. AMERICANS GREAT READERS Exemplification, of a Weil-Known National Trait Noted by a Foreign Visitor. "Great readers, yon Americans," said a foreign visitor to these shores according to the New York Sun "You seem to be reading all the time newspapers or books and you read everywhere in public as in private on the elevated cars, in the subway, everywhere and I was getting quit used to seeing the 'manifestation ol what appears to be a national habit; but I was a little surprised this morning yes, just a little when I saw a lady reading a newspaper as she rode up on an escalator from the sidewalk to an elevated railroad platform. . - "I know the restless American en ergy which prompts you to the ut most economy of time, to the utillza tion of every minute, so that no chance for gain shall be lost; but it seems to me In my dull and stupid old-world way that there might be such a thing as overdoing this bitter economy of time, don't you know. "In the case of the lady, reading on the escalator, for instance, I was afraid it might lead to an accident to her: It Is only a short ride on an escalator, and I was afraid she might forget and fall at the top, for she seemed very . intent. In fact, 1 couldn't tell whether she was econ omizing time or whether she was reading because she was so inter ested in what she was reading. "But, however, she read and read Intently all the way up, or until she had got three steps from the top and then she stopped and looked up, and then stepped off briskly and quite safely. "It must take about twenty-five sec onds for that escalator to carry one from the ground to the platform and she had read all but three steps, she had ' utilized twenty-two seconds of the time consumed on the trip and lost only three. The most remarkable exemplification I have yet seen of your characteristic economy of time and national habit of reading. "Quite wonderful people, you Amer icans!" How to Wash Windows. Strange as it may seem, there is a right and wrong way to wash win dows, and as this operation Is usually dreaded, the following method will doubtless be appreciated as it save3 both time and labor. Choose a dull day, or at least a time when the sun is not shining on the windows, for when the sun shines on the window it causes it to be dry streaked, no mat ter how much it is rubbed. Take a painter's brush and diist them inside and out, washing all the woodwork inside before touching the glass. . The latter must be washed slowly In warm water diluted with ammonia do not use soap. Use a small cloth with a pointed stick to get the dust out of the corners; wipe dry with a soft piece of cotton cloth do not use linen, as It makes the glass Iinty when dry. Polish with tissue paper or old newspaper. You will fina that this can be done In half the time ta ken where soap is used, and the result will be brighter windows. Daily Thought. "Don't cry out to Providence if you fall into a bed of nettles. Sit up quick and look for a dock leaf. Time to cry to Providence is when you're in a fix you can't get out of single-handed."
