The following from th Rocky Mount Motor Is one of the most sensible suggestions V farmers we have 6eent;.E:;s;j::; To see farmers hauling hay and sorry old dried up stuff, irom .western alarms la, a poor sight, a sorry sight.; All of July and ; August they pay laborers irom, seven ; to , nine dollars a month, and Vltuals, to cut up and kill better hay than they purchase in the spring. v If a two acre lot is prepared as for cotton or? tobacco the ma nure broadcast--and left utterly alone thereafter,' enough volun teer grass will grow on It to make four or fi ve tons of as good bay as can be bought any where. . Mr. B. H. Bunn raises this Kind with other kinds of grasses and rides and bis enough on hand now to t un his farm tor two years The late J udge Dorsey -Battle urged "hog and hominy" until Edgecombe fell into line and now buys neither meat nor corn ex cept in cases of a few beginning or improvident farmers. ", Hard times" forsooth, when our - lauds are' teeming with all that i. goes to make a . fortune, Pluck and Skill blended would soon make this section "blossom rike the rose." . ' This writer has heard farmers brag about having a whole great big field in coru and lots of acres in cotton, etc , and yet at fall time they begin to seek the merchant who will consent at a big price to run them the .next year, and they run them too. If their fifty acres in corn and fifty io cotton were reduced to one fourth each and the same ma nure and energy used on it thus reduced - in acreage the profits would be .enough to Jet Mr. Mer chant) run himself only. . This Is plain talk, and w hile not written by a college graduate lions are neeaeu wiu result m success.. ' ' ' Trading at Home," The application of the principles of reciprocity should be made in eve' ry town that is ambitiouB pf attain ing prosperity.- The meohanio'or la borer who lives in a town, and who is dependent pa the people of that town or community for employment and who spends his money in anoth er city, has no right to complain if his neighbor refuses to employ him, but instead imports a workman from some other looalitv- to build his house, lay his wall or paint his barn as the case mav be. xahsnee Yes, and 'tie' merchant or store keeper who ignores his' townsman in a different line ol business when he wishes to-make a purchase, and goes from home to . trade, is not entitled to the least ' consideration from the people of his' town. .' It is the duty of every person residing in aoommu nity to as for as. possible reciprocate the many benefits whioh the oom rji unity -has oonferred upon him. and the individual who fails in this recant is' not endowed with that publio spirit which characterises a good - citizen.

PICH SQUARE, NOBTHAMFJON COUJi1 How Agriculture Will Be , ;;,;) . some Profitable.' (By JPren. Geo. T, Wiwton.) i ' T. ? The soil and Its Crops. It has been said , that -,North Carol! na ' will produce any crop en u merated in the census,. Under proper conditions this variety of sou and climate ,1 may. become spurce of great wealth, but at present it is yielding small re turns, ' Our soil Is poor, far poor er than the average. . The yield per acre of. corn io the United States : Is . 28 bushels, to North Carolina 12; of wheat, 13 bushels, in North Carolina,1 7; of oats, 26 bushels, in North' Carolina, 12. Oar yield per acre of cotton and tobacco are apparently more sat isfactory, bat the cost of produc tion is greater than elsewhere, owing to the use of commercial fertilizers. It will be a (bard struggle for North Carolina to produce profitably under present conditions any agricultural pro ducts Which must be sold eitner in whole or to part,, as raw mate rial in the markets of the world I sar 'under present conditions,' for conditions must be changed in the future as they have been in the past The fei tillty of our soil must be increased by better methods of cultivation and ferti lization, and; the cost of produc tion must be diminished by bet ter skill, larger knowledge and the use of machinery. In these ways the present cotton crop of the South has been made possi b!e. Improved methods ia cultt vation, In ginning and in market ing the crop,' together with the inventiou of new uses for cotton saed, ; have Baved- for the South no less than fifty million dollars annually. It .is .this saving that makes possible the cultivation of cotton in North Carolina today. In the next generation, when fa miliarityj with machinery shall have improved the skill and in dustrial education shall 4iave en larged .the knowledge and quick eued the ; inventive facilities of those who shall contend with this greater saving whl be effected and that . the cotton .crop of the South will again be trebled iu size as it has been during the present generation. . , ' HELP FROM FACTORIES AND UR BAN POPULATIONS. Meanwhile much relief will be brought to our farmers by the growth of manufactures and the building : up of home markets Rapid progress is already mak ing in this directions Within the last twenty years our mills and manufactories have doubled and quadrupled, cities and towns have sprung up over the State, and thousands of health seekers have sought our precious climate all produciog local .markets for farm produce.- By these causes the condition of our farmers has been ereatly improved Tue value of farm lands in our State, as snown on tne tax boons, is greatest in 1 hose counties where the food consuming population is largest in proportion to the food producers. The banner, county is Durham, whose farm lands are valued at more than twenty io iars an acre;-a county where farmers may find every day ia the year a market for their prod uct's of the garden, the orchard, the poultry yard and the dairy or for the annual increase of flocks ind' herds. - Living under such conditions' a farmer may bring up the fertility of his land, and, it he chooses to raise them as sur plus crops, may compete with Texas in cotton, with -Kentucky in tobacco, with Missouri in corn. with Minnesota in-Wheat or with Kansas in oats. NexttoDdrnam in the value of farm lands is Gas ton, which'stands first in cotton mills; and next is Alamance which is also "next in manufacturing' Then 'comes Buncombe with its large urban-population and its thousands of visitors in search of health and pleasure, all food con sumers. Mecuietiourg is next, with its wonderful city, its many towns, its numerous manufact ures, its good "roads and its won derful improvements In methods of cultivatiog - and marketing Wa often : hear lamentations over tbe growta ot cities ana towns as if the moving of a faml ly from tbe country to the town raafofr N.' p.;' wece In some m'yiterlius way a detriment to our agricultural in terets. The mry contrary Is true. Every fpcreuse in the number of food cousumers.every enlargement of jie . looal market lor farm prod uce Js a help to the farmer. If NortflOirolii a cod tained a million Jypople not engag ed in ; food, production, butde- mandiog farm products for daily consumption, tnv ..value of our farming lands would be doubled or trebled, and oitffarmers would oe juuepenueni yi competition with tne marketsvoi tbe world liThe ultimate rlsolution of our farming, problem depends upon three factors s, The increas ed fertility; of fthe soil, secured through industrial; education and a better knowledge of scientific agriculture.;: Il.f Decreased cost of production, jptomoted by " the increaaea use or macninery, oy the utilization of waste material and . by the application of more skill and iptelligei ce in every de partment of facm"'libor.

We have received a little hand- oookvof tLe North Caroli .a Col lege of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, of Raleigh N. C,, and we are glad to see that tins institu- tun Is ' devotiDg itself zealously to technical educaUcn a. d manu al .training. " Our htate needs well educated ..men in all lines of engineering,.especially mechanic al and lectrical engineering, and also in cotton maoufacturibg. For the development, of our natural resources, we need also thou sands of skilled workmen, expert carpenters, wooa-iurners, pi' ck smiths, machinists, mechanics, mill workers, boiler tenders, elec tnciaDS, and'-dynauic-iendejs. Tbe A & M. College tralnstlads for such work, and if they possess talent educate them for all tech- 302 students, of whom many paid their own expenses by labor at odd times. Students who do cot labor may attend the College at a total expeuse, inclndiog clothing and books, in fact everything, for about $140, This can be reduced one half by securing a free schol vrshipand obtaining work at tbe College.' ; t' f vv' , ' Entrance examination will b held t in the county court bouse Saturday, July 28th, at 10 o'clock A..
