How many peopie there are whose dis tress from sores, aches, pains and erup tive tendencies are due to inherited blood poison. Bad blood passes from parent to child, and it therefore is the duty of husbnnd au ' wile to keep their blood pure. This is easily accomplished by a timely use of B. B. B (Botanic Blood Balm). Send to Blood Balm Co., At lanta, for book of most convincing proof. Jameallill, Atlanta,Ga., writes: "My two sons were afflicted with blood poi son, which doctors said was hereditary. They both broke out in sores and erup tions which B. B. B. promptly control led and Gnully cured completely." Mrs. S. M. Williams, Sand-, Texas, writes: "My three poor afflicted child ren, who inherited blood poison, have improved rapidly alter a use ot li. B. B It is a Godsend." J. B. Wilson. Glen Alpine Station, N. C, Feb. 13, 1885, writes : "Bone and blood poison forced me to have my leg amputated, and on the stump there came a large ulcer, which grew worse every dav until doctors gave me up to die. only weighed 120 pounds when I began to take B.

HOW THINGS LOOK FROM OUU STAND POINT. The Opinion of The Caucasian and the Opinion of others which we Can Endorse on the Various Topics of the Day. Discussing with Judge I toy kin the view of Judge Graves, con cerning the small court docket, as published In thisolumn last wek, he waid that he found In the majority of places that the docket was nearly as large a9 ever. The condition in this county was rather local. It was true that certain legislative en actments and decision! of State Supreme Court had to some ex tent narrowed the field of liti gation, but that effect extended to the whole State, and there fore would not explain the condi tion in this and other counties. He believed that the Farmers' Alliance, through its commit tees on the Good of the Order, had done much in this county to lessen or rather to take litigation out of the court. Resides he thought the moarl tone of the county was greatly improved. We offer no opinion, foV these jurists should know better than we. However, we hope Judge Boykin is correct. Col. Roland, the able Repre sentative of the 6th District, has introduced a bill providing for the collection of an income tax, that suits our notion to a dot. if it could be passed. Rut there is no likelyhood of the abandonment of the present system of taxation and the res toration of the income tax. Col. Roland's proposition is to lay taxes on incomes as follows : "From five thousand to ten thousand dollars, two per cent um thereof ; from ten thousand to twenty-five thousand dollars, our per centum thereof ; from twenty-five thousand dollars to fifty thousand dollars, six per centum thereof; from fitty thou sand dollars to one hundred houpand dollars, eight per cent um thereof, and on all such in comes amounting to over one mndred thousand dollars, ten per centum thereof.' This would make the men who have vastwrealth pay their proportionate part of the taxes; as it is now they pay but little more than the average citizen, out of their surplus abundance tney snouid pay a greater pro portion. News and Observer. THE REAL FOUNDATION CHURCH. OF THE A. K. Fiske, in the March Fo rum, says: Assailants oi the churcr have contended that it rests upon creeds aud dogmas as its sole foundation, and that when these are battered out it must collapse. But are not the iounaauons neeper ana more solid, and as enduring as the qualities and needs of humani ty; and have not creeds and dog mas been tbe embankments and props accumulated for support in ages of imperfect knowledge and prevailing superstition? May not the modern revelations of science and reason show these to be unnecessary, and by clear ing away the debris of a dark past leave the fabric of a reli gion and a church firmly resting on the original corner stone, but with foundations broadened and solidified so as to be unassaila ble, and a superstructure in har mony with the intellectual pro gress of the race? in these later times ? There are two reasons why some people don't mind their own business. One is, that they haven't any mind; the other, that thev haven't any business. Harvard Lampoon.

Cross and White were yester day turned over by the Sheriff to W. (i. Allen, Superintendent of the Workhouse. In the af teruoor thev were transferred to the gang at work in this township, cn the roads, under Mr. McMackiu. The latter told me to-day that Cross and White were right at work, uncomplain ing and in earnest. It is quite probable that a petition will be made foi the nhortening of their terms of sentence. They natur ally have many sympathizers and White has petitions with hundreds of bignatures. Dr. Eugene Grissom was be fore the Mayor yesterday. He was charged with having gone into a store aud, having a pistol, made threats against a clerk George Williams. Dr. Grissom was informed that Williams had coupled his name with that of a female employe at the Insane Asylum. Williams said that he had not done go and had never heard of any such matter. Dr. Grissom then left the store. The Directors of the Insane Asylum met this morning, main ly to elect a steward and matron. John W. Thompson, the old steward, was again tendered the place but declined. He will b.e a candidate for the nomination for Clerk of Wake Superior Court, and his frieuds think he can give Charles D.

Mr. Frank Boykin, one of the Asylum Directors, tell us that the Steward's salary has been reduced from 1,600 to 1,250 per annum. Ed. WHAT lOi:S THIS 3I1SAX The following is from the commercial Bulletin a Republi can protection organ published in Boston, in a recent edition it says. Men whose hands have held urotection's banners foremost in the fray are solemnly warned that their counsel of modera tion is tearing the party asunder and that their influence at Washington is a thing of the past. Is it? Are the lawyers and politicians of the House of Representatives t'te servants or the masters of this- republic? Even the most pessimistic of writers on American policies admits that the people have the power of revolution, and the test of the congressional elec tions is not far away. That is well. It is a source of genuine satisfaction to hear the Bulletin threatening "a revolution'' at the pools, if the men at Wash ington continue to play the roll of ''masters" instead of recogniz ing that ther are the servants of the people. And it is all about the tariff Protection seems to be an the wane in those parts. More fruit from the tariff re form seed sown by Grover Cleveland He was defeated by KHarrison but he is today greater than a President. "1EMS NOIl'F CAROLINA. FEET." A few weeks ago a North Car olina family, now residing near Wilmington, were returning from Oklahoma territory. While seated on the cars the lady was eagerly eyed by an old negro woman, who occupied a seat just opposite to her in the same car. Nothing was said and but little attention was paid to the old woman, until when accidentally the lady displayed one of her feet, the old darkey grasped it with visible joy, exclaiming, "Dem's Nor'f Caliny feet; I knows these women here haye no sich little feet." She seem ed perfectly happy when told that she was correct - and that the lady was then on her way to Goldsboro. The old woman's eyes filled with tears when the time for separation came. She hailed from Sampson county and longed to get back to the big blue huckleberrv country. Wilmington Messenger. "How to Cure all Skin Diseases." Simply apply "Swayxe's Ointment.''

Prof. Chamberlain told of in stances where 20 to 3C per cent. more corn was made from same quantity of manure put on lands in winter than when put or just before planting. Manure should be put on the land during the winter and allowed to assimi late with the soil. However this does not apply to commer cial fertilizers which are more of a stimulant than anything else. grass us. He urged the advantages of sowing clover in connection with raising stock. Mr. J. M. Mew borne said Ger man crimson clover sown in the rough or burr will do well here without any manuring or culti vation. SILOS-ENSILAGE. It was announced that Prof. Chamberlain would speak about ensilage and silos. The speaker said the question of silos ensila ge is closely re lated to the manure question. Ensilage, by enablln r to keep more stock,makes more manure. 15 tons of corn the blade s,stalk and all can be made per acre and put in the silo at a cost of GO cents per ton. After allow ing loss from decay we have 27,- 000 pounds of food from one acre enough to feed ten cows two months. For cows it is bet ter food than anything except grass. One objection to this great food is that it will turn sour with a few days exposure, but then so will beef ro in a few days, yet we do not desist from eating beef on that account The speaker dwelt on the excel lence and cheapness of eusilage as a food for stock. ROTATION OF CROPS. Rev. J. T. Grubbs asked about cotton culture. Prof. Chamber lain said it is necessary to shade land, and this is the reason rais ing cotton on the same land year after after impoverishes it. The reason clover and peas sown broadcast enriches land so is be cause of shading tbe land as well as filling it with vegetable matter. Mr. Harvey asked about sow ing peas and following with cot ton. Mr. Kennedy had sown peus after oats and followed peas with cotton aud made twice as much cotton as usual. It was stated that even if pea- vines are cut off the land if left in much better condition than if pease had not been sown. It was recommended that pea- vines be plowed under after the vines had dried and fallen down. The great mass of green pea vines put acids in the soil that sometimes are detrimental, but this is to a large extent obvia- tee by putting on lime. It is better to cut ana cure pea vines and feed to cattle than to leave on the land, as the feed is re turned to the land in the shape of manure from the cattle. It was stated that Col. Holt made over 45 bushels of wheat to the acre on 80 acres without any fertilizers, but that he only sows on clover sod land. Nitrate of soda broadcast on top was said to be splendid for oats. Mr. H. A. Edwards said he had the best results from ashes by sowint' in shallow furrows. SECOND DAY. LEARXED TWO IMPORTANT THINGS. Rev. C. W. Howard was re quested to make a short talk, and he made a very interesttag one. He said we learned yester day two importaut things 1st, to utilize our labor; 2nd, in order to make farming success ful we must make our own ma uure and learn how to care for it. Our mistake is in not read ing enough and learning from the experiences of ether far mers. It is characteristic of ignorance to say we don't be lieve what we can't understand There will doubtless be some things said today whick we will not understand, but that is no reason why we should refuse to believe them. Some startling statements were made yester day about manure from cattle being worth nearly as much as the feed they consume. One trouble with us is we don't prop erly utilize our labor we work hard enough but don't manage right. .It takes only a few unwise expenditures on our farms to run us in debt. We waste too much. One of the great things for us to learn Is to enquire if what we are about to do will pay. Clover don't pay in this sectionit co?ts more to produce it than It hs worth. He thought pets would pay well and gave an experi ment of his own. On five acres of land with a little manure he made a god growth and put fattening . Logs on them; the next year he put the five acres in oats. This laud the follow ing year produced 1,100 pounds of seed cotton to tbe acre, whereas it had never before produced more than 700 pounds. Tills gradual improvement, thougli small, paysbymakiug it cheaper to make meat. It is better to make meat at home no matter how cheap it can be bought, because the pea vines and roots and droppings from the hogs are left to enrich the soil. Hogs are lost from choler because they are fed with Western eorn. He made a suc cess at raising hogs ottener than he did raising cotton. An effectual preventive of hog cholera is a weak solution of carbolic acid with water, about a spoonful of acid in a bucket of water; and calculate about ten drops of acid to the 100 pounds of hog. The way. how ever, he dosed his hogs with the acid was to cook vegetables from the garden and put in a small quantity of the acid, well mixed while cooking, calculat ing about ten drops of acid to 100 pounds of meat. This did not cure a hog that already had cholera but he didn't have an other hog to take the disease after using it, and his hogs thrived nicely. Mr. Howard thought the great advantage we ge: from the Institute is that we will be more ready to take advantage of new ideas frc mother sources. HOG CHOLERA AND CLOVER. Prof. Chamberlain said hog cholera cannot be cured after the animal takes the disease and agreed with Mr. Howard that carbolic acid is one of the best and the cheapest preven tives there is. The Professor aid not agree with Mr. Howard in his conclusions that clover would not pay m this section and said that clover can be raised on any good clay subs il. Clover sod is worth as much to the land as the hay taken off; only costs $i,ou to $2 per acre to sow; produces about $14 worth of hay. Clover enables the farmer te keep stock, make meat ana manure and enricli his land. On sandy land clover don't do well but on clay soil or mixed clay soil it is a great thing By turning hogs on clover it costs very little to raise meat, and the best sort of mauure is made on the land He thought clover if gradually gotten into will prove the salva tion of the farmer in this sec tion. Rev. J. T. Grubbs suggested that each farmer try a small plot of land iu clover. Mr. H. A. Edwards want 3d to know how much clover to sow to the acre. Commissioner Robinson said about 15 pounds of red clover. Mr. Levi Mewborne told of his experience in failing to make clover sown Feb. 1st. He made good clover on a small plot of well drained stiff bot tom land, but always failed to raise clover on light lands. Prof. Chamberlain said if he was going to plant clover here he would plow in September, then pulverize the soil very fine, and sow down the seed, while the wind was not blowing, then lightly brush over with a light harrow. Commissi on ar Robinson thank ed Mr. Howard for his practical to-the-point talk, and remarked that chemists tell us that clover leaves to soils through leaves and roots fertilizers equal in value to the hav taken off. We have yet to know of hogs hav ing the cholera that are aise 1 on clover. A practical farmer says crimson clover an annual crop was worth 10 an acre to the following cotton crop Crimson clover sown in Auguat soon as cotton is lad by an swers fine for pasturage. One farmer gathered 100 bushels of crimscn clever seed from two acres sown on cotton land with out being plowed. Crimson clover grows well on stubble land, even among weeds and grass. Prof. Chamberlain suggested that orchard grass and a few oats be sown with the clover Put land in peas, then turn down after peas come off and sow in the mixture of clover, orchard grass and oats. He also spoke of the way hog cholera spread other than by contact with other hogs. It is carried about by rats or other animals; frequently by buzzards. Hogs that die from cholera should not be thrown in the woods or exposed, thereby causing the disease to spread iu this way, but should be buried go that no animal can get to them to spread the dheae. THE AGE TO KILL HOGS. He remarked about reading of such heavy hogs in tho pa pers and said while it may be a roattter of pride to raise a few very heavy hogs it is not done at n profit, as there is a limit at which auimals can be grown at a profit. After getting above a certain weight they zrow slower in proportion to the food consumed. Tho best weight at which to sell pigs to realize the highest price per pound and the most liberal re turns for food consumed is from 150 to 200 pounds live weight. Pigs will gain more pounds for the food they con sume up to 75 pounds than dur ing any othey period of their lives will yield more pounds of pork to the pounds of food. From 75 to 100 pounds it takes 10 per cent, more food to make every pound of pork that is 100 pounds of food fed to pigs under or at 75 pounds weight will make as much weight in pork as 110 pounds of food fed to pigs weighing from 95 to 100 pounds. From 160 to 150 pouuds live weight, 17 per cent. more food is required; while up to 200 pounds live weight, 24 j per cent more food is required. to make every jiound of p.rk, and from BOO to 300 pounds live weigh, 30 per cen . more food is required. So a man keeping a hog until it weigh 300 pounds is paying almost one sixth more to produce every pound of pork than it costs be tween 100 and 150 pouuds. Pi of. Chamberlain again urged the importance of silos. The people seem to be afraid to try ensilage, but there is no trouble at all to make good feed in this way. He thought a silo could be built to hold 40 or 50 tons for not to exceed 40. Only one gentleman, Mr. Win. Kennedy, had said he intended to build a silo; hoped others would decide to build them. If two or three farmers in a neigh borhood would get " a cutte, plant corn a week or so apart (corn makes best ensilage every thing considered) so as not to conflict with each other they could manage it very well. A silo should certainly not be less man io icet square; larger is better; 1 2 feet square does very well. The Farmers and Ingalls. A Topeka dispatch says; The continued rapid growth of the Fanners' Alliance in Kansas is phenomenal. When asked yes terday if members elected by the Alliance would support Sen ator Ingalls for re-election, Judge Offer said: "That depends entirely upon the position taken by Mr. In galls. The Alliance will not support any man who does not support any man who does not agree with it. I sometime since addressed a letter to Senator In galls requesting his views on the following questions: First What legislation, if any do you recommend by way of re lief to farmers in the present depressed condition of agricul ture? 2nd. Do you favor an increase in tne volume oi circulating money? If so, to what extent; in what way do you propose to effect the change, and how get the money in circulation ? Third. In what respect, if at all, and for what purpose do you favir changing the national banking law ? Fourth. Do you favor free and unlimited coinage of silver at present weight and fineness? Up to this date the reques had not been complied with My opinion is that Senator In- and the farmers of Kousas can not get together upon these im portant questions. MERCHANT'S EXCURSION.

(Si-U! Cor. Cutica-Un.) The reader is particularly re quested to rtmmbr that both the paper on " TLo kittle I't Fly," in lat week's C.u casun, and the following ne express not the vie of tho writer merely, but they express abi the views of thv most distin guished vetenarians of this country and of Europe, -itid are the views too held by all horse meu of enlarged experience in stock breeding throughout the wo Id. The Horse Hot-Fly, or Gad Fly iu laying iU eggs attaches them to the hair of the horse, usually on the forelegs and breast, so as to te convenient to the horse's mouth. The horse licks the spot irritated by the fly and thus gets the eggs into his mouth. It is hate he 1 by the heat and moisture, passes down the gullet and attaches self to the coit of tho stomach by two small hooks on tho head and there hangs for several months, as j'et not having the power to let go. This is one of the stages it has to go through to become a fly. When it has maiureu u lets go and soon passes out with the faces. It ther hides itself iu the earth to undergo another change, and after six or seven weeks growth mine pupaconjuion emerges full fledged Gad-Fly, capable of annoying many horses and propagating its species indefi nitely. Tho bot sucks liquid nourishment from tho food ol ue norse, uno never, as is pop ularly supposed, eas the stom ach, for the holes found iu the stomach soon after the death of a Lealtuy animal are really caused bj the action of the gas tric juices. The only harm bots can possibly do ia to accumu- ate in such large quantities in the stomach and bowels as to nterfere with digestion and the ree passage of tho fares. In such cases a uureative (say a quart of raw linseed oil as a drench iu the morning on au empty stomach) may be given. No specific treatment is neces sary, simply give a plenty of clean, wholesome food. The bots cannot, while they inhabit he stomach o the horse, give he animal any, pain, for they nave fastened on the cuticular and insensible coat. They can not be injurious to the horse. or he enjoys perfect health when the cuticular part of his stomach is filled with them They cannot be removed by medicine, because they are not n that part of the stomach to which medicine is usually con veyed; and if they were, their are too deeply buned in the mucus for any medicine that can bo safely administered to effect them; and, last of all, in due course of time, they will detatch themselves and come nway. Therefore the wise man will let them alone. T. J. Lkk, Druggist. The aboye seems to explode ti;e prevalent idea that horses are killed by "Bots." Ei.
