A number of our subscribers
have mistaken the article on the
"Monetizatiou of Land" in the
Lift irsue, under the heard of
"Forum of i'nblie, Opinion' for
an Editorial, and- we .-upposc
he mistake arose from the po
sition of the article. We were
crowded for space last werkand
were compelled to leave out the
"Editor's Chair," and in making
up the form of matter for the
press, the abovo article was ac
cidently put in that column. My
referring' to the article you will
s.oe that it was written by a gen
tleman whose nohi tic plume is "A
Collard." We take this means
of saying that we do not endorse
all that the writer of the article
said. IDs plan of land, instead
of United Stales bonds as a ba
sis of a banking systen, while
better than the present system,
we think, yet it would not bring
the lvliei now most needed. We
wish a system that will give ha
maliatc, permanent and wfc re
lief to all producers. The sub-
treasury plan as enunciated and
demanded of Congress by the
St. Louis convention, we believe,
will do this in a great measure
and we shall stand by it, unless
something better is offered. The
great central idea of that plan
is to give a currency that will
always be measured exactly by
the needs of the people and in
it we fee the salvation of the
poor Dinners.
Mr. Lartholdi, the great ar
tist, in whose bram was con
ceived the idea, and by whose
hands was moulded the great sta
tue of Libervy,expi'es.ses himself,
to a New York World reporter as
being hirrilied at the idea and
plan of Secretary "Windom to
turn Dedloe's Island, the foot
stool of "Liberty Enlightening
the World," in New York har
bor, into a dumping ground for
immigrai ts.
"Instead of such a desecra
tion," he says, "I always hoped
that Americans would see the
splendid use that is to be made
of that island as I see it, name
ly, to turn it into a Pantheon
for New York City, and by that
reason for the whole United
States. That ia what it is clear
ly destined to be a shrine of
the history and ulories of the

purpose as Westminister Abbey

ideal resort wheie should be

The Lastern Keilector, in a
lea-ding editorial, lias the fol
lowing to say of our distin
unguished townsman: His?
Honor, .Judge Loykin, has just
closed a two weeks term of our
court, and it is no reflection
upon the distinguished Jurists
who have preceded him to say
that no court was ever held in
the county which gave more
universal satisfaction. The
Lench and the Lar put them
selves in harmony with each
other in the very begining of
the term for steady earnest
work and both labored toge
ther to the very end of the
term, and the result is that
mere cases were disposed of
than we ever knew at any court
before. We were frequently in
co-ur and were delighted with
the manner in which the Judge
pesided and conducted its
affairs. 1'iomptness and im
partiality marked every step of
his proceeding. No time was
wasted in yetting to work nor
in the trial of the causes. The
law vers stated their position
with brevity and clearness and
the JudgT decided with prompt-,
ness and deCnitencss and that
was the end of it. If now and
then an attorney see -ed to be
disposed to waste time with a
useless repetition of his argu
ments, the Judge with gentle
ness and kindness, but with
firmness and positiven?ss, put
proper restraint upon it and
the readiness with which the
ibr yielded to his decisions
showed that the lawyers re
cognized in Judge Boykin a man
of learning and eminent fitness
for the high position which lie
holds. The people who attended
court were greatly pleased and
on all sides one could hear
words of kindness and approval
for the Judgo. We still have a
crowded docket, there being
over two hundred civil cases
yet for trial, and Ave hear a
general desiie for Judge Loykin
to return to us in June and
repeat his good work. In writ
ing these words of approval of
a public servant we are simply
giving voice to the feelings and
sentiments of Lawyers, Suitors,
and people who were in atteu
dence upon court and we do it
with pleasure because it is so
truly deserved.

In response to an invitation
from the Sampson County Agri
cultural Society, Col. John Rob
inson, State Commissioner of
Agriculture, and Profs. Massey
and Chamberlain, of the Agri
cul tural a nd Median ical College,
arrived in Clinton on lastThurs
day evening for the purpose of
holding a County Farmers' In
stitute on Friday and Saturday.
IJy invitation they were the
guest of Treasurer J. R. Ileaman,
during their stay.
FIRST DAY.
-MORXINO SESSION.
On Fridav morniner. in snitp
V Q " - -
the inclement weather, a goodly
number of our best farmers had
put in their appearance to at
tend the Institute. At 10 o'clock
Mr; W. K. Pigford, President of
the Agricnltural Society, called
the Institute to order. Ryre-,
quest of President Pighrrd, Rev. !
J. L. Stewart welcomed the Com
missioner and the Professors to
our town in a happy and appro
priate talk of ten minutes.
The President then announced
that the response by Col. Robin
son would be postponed till the
afternoon session, and that after
the permanent organization by
the election of officers, the
Institute would adjourn, till the
meeting of the County Alliance,
(which was then in session)
should be over, so that all could
attend and be profited by the
Institute work.
The permanent organization
was effected by the election of
J. R. Reaman, Esq., for Presi
dent, and Marion Butler for Sec
retary. Adjourned till 2 o'clock.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
When the Institute was called
to order by President Reaman,
not only was every seat in the
Courthouse occupied, but many
were compelled to stand. Presi
dent introduced Col. Robiuson,
State Commissioner of Agricul
ture, who responded to the ad
dress of welcome as follows :
The fanner is the object of much
more Solicitude at this time, then
any other class, or perhaps all other
classes combined. And as a couse
quenco there is bestowed upon him
any amount of gratuituous advice.
There never was a time when the
forces of society for the enlighten
ment of the farmer class was greater
than at the present day.
The great arc! prime object should
he to reach the average farmer, and
create in him a hungering and
thirsting tor more knowledge and
for better knowledge. How can
this, hest be done?
The old way of reading and study
ing and experimenting while it
must not be dispensed with or
ignored, is too slow and. too uncer
tain for his great needs and demands
at this juncture. What he needs is
immediate help, xle needs the ex
perience of those who have succeed
ed wherein he has failed, he needs
the experience of all who have suc
ceeded in their spocial line of work.
How better can this be accomplished
than through Farmers Institutes.the
object of which is to awaken a deeper
interest in farming, und to impart
practical information derived from
experience iu the various branches
of agriculture.
In no other way can so much
good be accomplished at so small
an outlay as through Farmers Insti
tutes. Information that has been derived
from practical experience upon the
farm, the dairy, or the orchard is of
more value than information derived
from any other source to the practi
cal farmer.
It is a place where may be had an
interchange and exchange of views
and opinions which are of incalcula
ble value to every inteligent tiller
of the soil. Xo farmer, fruit grower,
or brooder of fine stock can afford to
neglect attending a farmers Institute
whenever an opportunity is afforded.
There is an influences utte.-idi:. '
j thorn that is uplifting in it-character.
anu a tendency to broaden and ex
pand the views and opinions of all
who participate, that develop more
and more us the work progresses.
In fact a tanners In-dituleis a school
in ihich the e'iericnces of practi
cal men in the various branches of
agriculture for neatly a life time is
given without nionev and without
price, to aid their fellow eo-Hboror
m achieving more success in their
several callings.
The calling of the fanner is a
great study, a lifelong work, and no
oue can be successful in the pur-uit
of the vocation without a knowledge
of the the principles upon which it is
founded. We reed constant inter
courses with each other to ho able to
pursue with success this great study.
And how better can this be accom
plished than through Farmers' Insti
tutes when the information and
co-operation necessary mav be had?
The State of Wisconsin no doubt
has achieved more success and has
as a natural consequence, received
more benefit from the special work
of Farmers' Institute than any otner
section of this contiment so "far as
my information extends. And I
would think that our own people
could be induced to undertake the
great and good work with the same
spirit and enthusiasm.
The Pre:ideut then introduc
ed Prof. J. R. Chamberlain, who
opened the discussion on
1 1 0 M E M A DE FERTILIZ LRS,
The following is the gist of
the Professor's highly ontertain
higand instructive discussion of
the very important subject:
The slow and gradual develop
ment of farming can be traced down
all the ages ofthepast. Each epoch
has its improvements in agriculture
the saie as in all departments of
trade and professions. He who neg
lects to keep step with the march of
time must, in the course of events,
fall behind and become the little
fish in the great sea of progress.
Science in the past few years has
made wonderful advancement, and
we stand to-day with strained eyes
and open mouth and look with won
der and admiration on new facts as
they are brought to our notice. Yet
the same simple laws govern all to
day that governed it ages gone by,
and when these old truths appear in
new forms we can't help but say
wondrous things aie being done,
new facts are being discovered.
Wo live in an age of advancement.
Close competition is crowding us on
every hand.. We are not exempt in
agriculture, and many of us, in or
der to keep up our incomes, have
been willfully exhausting our lands
without considering the consequen
ces. We find we must change our
methods. We all know something
must be done, but there we stop.
IIUMm-UM. FAR M INC.
1 heard Gov. Holt once saj- that if
he used the same machines and lol
lowed the same methods he did 1"
years ago in spinning cotton he would
oe a bankrupt in six months. Can
we not draw a lesson from this?
There has been but little change
in the methods followed in farming
since we were bo vs. and wet find our.
selves to-day reaching that condition
in which J-.ngland iound herself one
hundred
years
ago, her lands de-
nieted in fertilitv. her trado sli uninor
away ana a starving people looking
witn anxious eyes towards some
means by which thev could imnrove
their condition. One hundred vears
ago the farming lands of I'ngland
had become too poor to lomrer pro
duce profitable crops. The best
minds of the country commenced to
to investigate the cause and look for
remedies, which would aid the peo
ple and restore the land to a profita
ble state of fertility. England solv
ed the mystery and for one hundred
years her lands have been growing
more fertile and her farms richer.
i:n; land's rkmedy.
She recognized the truth that if
there was continued suhstraction with
out any addition there would come
a time when there would be nothing
further to substract from. Without
thinking, her people had been selling
oft' the products of her lands and had
not returned the elements of 'plain
food taken away in the form of
grain and produce.
Rotation, diversification and stock
are the means by which England has
changed, in a few years, her lands
from a depleted condition to one of
the most productive countries the
sun shines upon.
GKEAT IMPORTANCE OF STOCK.
Stock I consider the main founda
tion on which we are to construct the
new agriculture. If we raise stock
to the best advantage we must of
necessity rotate and diversify. We
make the mistake very often of cal
culating the return to us in cash
from the sale of a certain crop with
out taking into account the loss of
fertilizing materials from the soil
for the production and sale of that
crop. We must turn our attention
to stock raising, not because there is
great profit ia it, but because it will
help us to retain the fertility of our
land and increase the yield of our
money crops. Circumstances 'and
taste must guide us in the selection
of kind, breed and characteristics,
but we must select some kind of
stock and turn our attention to this
industry.
For one I can never turn a cold
shuulder to butter and cheese mak
ing, because of pioperly conducted
it is a source of great wealth; I do
not say that this can ever become
a dairy county but it can be some
thing of a stock county.
I want to say here in public that
that manure produced by the cows
in North Carolina is worth more in
dollars and cents than the milk pro
duced from these cows.

After the season of low-cut
bodices fanoy has g ne to the
other extreme, and now it is
heresy to show a rlimpse of

that the collar rests on the
shoulder and towers up to the
chin. The dressy collar is cut
on the bias, stifened with can

it can be rolled down or raised

A List of Flavorings.
Last week in discussing the
verietj of preperation of food
for the table, and pointing out
the mistake most cooks make
in using salt and pepper as a
seasoning for every thing and at
all times, we advised every
housekeeper to take an inven
tory of her kitchen closet, and
if it did not contain a dozen or
more different kinds of season
ing, to make haste to supply
the deficiency. We have been
asked by a lady tr mention
those seasoning. Instead of a
dozen, we will mention too
dozen or more.
To be used in cooking the
daily bills of fare the stor1
closet should contain mace,
both powde.ed and in the loaf;
cloves, allspice, cinnamon, nut
meg, bay leaves, celery seed or
celery salt, parsley, burnt sutrar,
thyme, marjoram, onions, laurel
leaf, trarlic and even leeks,

cheese and browned flour or
fried croutons crushed to a
powder. These are the ordinary
seasonings that should be used
in every family and are used
where trood cooking is apprecia
ted, and yet even such simple
things are unknown quantities
in many house or are regarded
as unnecessary. The cook gets
into the way of dropping in a
pinch or salt and shaking the
pepper box over the dish which
ia cooking and sends up eery
thing to the table with no
further additions. It i a very
easy way of cooking, and just
as easy a road to U 'tilt finding,
for such cooking day after day
palls upon the appetite and
everything grows distasteful.
Straightway go up the cries.
'Nothing tastes good!" "Oh,
dear! I wish you'd get a good
cook," etc.
The whole trouble must be
laid at the door of ignorance;
many know of but few of these
seasonings, and those who do, if
they use them at all, use too
much. Many of them are like
caye'nne pepper hardly a grain
is necessary. A illustrative, 1

A Man's lda of Home Comfort.
A man wants some one place
in his home that he can call his
very own, some portion of the
house where his will is law,
where no conflict of authority
can arise. This is not altogether
for the purpose or nteuring
solitude,for his f imily is usually
most welcome there, but the
neeo for it springs from the de
sire for that sense of proprietor
ship which is his habit abroad,
and from the wish to do pre
cisely as he pleases iu nt least
a corner of his own house.
Here should be the comforts
that the man devises for him
self, the lounging chairs, the
desk and library, his smoking
materials with license to use
them. Ilre he should bo able
to feel absolutely at Ms eawc,
troubled by no fear of "mussing
things," no need to thread his
way anxiously through a maze
of furniture and various decora
tive obstructions, trembling lest
something should be overturned
and broken, and there shou'd
be the seat of that admired dis
order to which he only has the
clue. His books and papers
should be left as he leaves
them, though to'the orderlv fo
male eye they may seem to lie
in hopeless confusion. 1 1 is desk
may be littered with pile of
books, magazines, letters, manu
scripts, everything that can
possibly find a place there, but
if a woman wishes to secure to
a man one of his most cherished
home comforts, she will let
that desk alone. I'ercy Vere in
