l,-or several years hop growers in
the North have been convinced that
the South is better adapted for hoo !
growing than any other section of ttre i
country. They have had their atten
tion especially attracted to North Car
olina. Mr. A.1L. Jones, editor of the
Hop Growers' Journal, Hamilton, N.
Y., was among the first to become
convinced of '.his fact and publish it
to the world. So strongly convinced
was he that hop growing could be
successfully conducted in this section
that he made several visits to the State
for the purpose of making investiga
tions in regard to our climate, soil and
labor. The result of his investigations
proved entirely satisfactory and he
sold his paper in New York and has
now moved to this State for the pur
pose of engaging in hop growing. He
arrived in Raleigh last week and was
seen by a reporter yesterday.
"Though the matter has been agi
tated in the papers of the State very
little," he said, "you would be sur
prised to know how many people
throughout the State are interested in
hop growing. I have recently received
over 700 letters requesting information
in regard to the kind of sou best
suited to hops, manner of cultivation
and curing, yield per acre, occ. And
the object of my visit now is to meet
those who are interested in the subject
of hop culture and arrange for experi
mental planting in various sections ot
the State. 1 have been in correspon
dence with the agricultural depart
ment for some time in regard to this
matter and they have been expecting
me here for a year, but owing to busi
ness comolications at my home in
New York I was unable to get here
earlier."
"Has the experiment of hop grow
ing in this State ever been tried?
"Oh yes, and the result has been
satisfactory beyond anything 1 ex
pected. I secured the planting ot
three small yards, making a total of
about eight acres, in Richmond county
in the autumn of 1893, the hrst year
I came to North Carolina. The result
was satisfactory, both as to the quanti
ty and quality of the hop produced.

have sent up to me thus tar was 01 as

they have as yet erected no curing

"I do not suppose hops can be grown
in all parts of the State by any means,
but I think there are points in the
middle section of North Carolina that
are well adapted to hop culture and I
desire to make experimental plantings
in different parts ot the State in co

The New York.Sw a few days ago
published an extract from a speech
delivered in 1852, in the Senate, by
Wm. H. Seward, which in die light of
events that have occurred and are now
occurring, reads very much like a
prophecy fulfilled. He was touching
on the foreign relations of the United
States, when he said :
Henceforth European commerce,
European politics. European thought,
and Euporean activity, although actually
gaining force, and European connec
tions, although actually becoming
more intimate, will nevertheless rela
tively sink in importance; while the
Pacific Oceau, its shores, its islands,
and the xast region beyond, will become
the chief theatre of events in the
world's great hereafter.

. And on the other side are the 800,
000,000 of people that until within
the last half century had kept them
selves pretty well locked in from the
rest of mankind, but even there the
railroad and telegraph has gone, and
progress must follow and old customs
and the brazen gods must disappear.
Are we, the most enterprising and

An isthmus canal had been thought
about and talked about before Mr.
Seward delivered this remarkable
prophecy, and perhaps it was in his
mind when he made. it.

to make money out of the poultry busi

Charleston News and Courier.!
The success of a number of cotton
mills in the Carol inas built by the
building association or co-operative
plan has attracted so much attention
that Mr. D. A. Tompkins, of Char
lotte, who has organized several such
enterprises, has contributed to the
Baltimore Manufacturers' Record a
comprehensive article covering the
whole subject, illustrated by pictures
of six mills built on this system. It is
an interesting paper, and should have
the effect of extending the system very
largely throughout the South.
Mr. Tompkins had noted, he says,
that there was a strong desire to build
cotton mills on the part of the people
of several towns who did not have the
necessary capital in sight, and he had
also observed that in almost every
such town "one or more building and
loanassociations were in operation
with accumulated cash in excess of
what it was considered impossible to
raise for the construction ot a cotton
factory." Putting the two observa
tions together, the conclusion was
reached that if a plan could be formu
lated by which a company could be
organized whose capital stock was
made payable in the shape of regular
weekly or monthly savings, any ordi
nary town could build a factory.
Following out this suggestion, it
was found that with shares of $ioo
par value they could be paid for in full
as follows: i. At the rate of $i a
week the par value would be reached
in a little less than two years. 2. At
the rate of 50 cents a week the time
would be less than four years. 3. At
25 cents the time would be less than
eight years. "Each of these plans
has been tried at Charlotte, and each
has proved successful."
The 25 cent rate is " undesirable,"
however, if the subscriptions can pos
sibly be got at ko cents a week or
more. The 50 cent plan has proved
to be most popular, and is the most
suitable for all ordinary cases and
plansr By this plan, and on the basis
of subscriptions aggregating $100,000,
the yearly payments would amount to
about $21; ,000. "With this amount
of money, paid in by the week or
month, the buildings could be con
structed and paid for in the first year.
Inside the second year one-third the
machinery could be purchased and
put in operation. In three years from
the time of organization it would be
usually entirely feasible to have the
in operation, with some

A capital of $100,000 will build a
mill of about 5,000 spindles and 200
looms, which would furnish work for
about 100 hands. The shortest time
in which the capital can be accumula
ted is the best, of course, and if sub
scriptions can be procured on the
basis of $2 a week, instead of 50 cents,
thus making the capital payable in
about a year, this would be the next
best thing to having the money sub
scribed subject to call as it would be
needed. The plan of 50 cents, how

Barred Plymouth Kocks thai are as
old as the Leghorus already mentioned,

of them get so uearly naked as the
Lechorns and most of them are laying.
They don't drop their feathers all at
ouce, but a few at a time, and the new
ones tome in the same way, so I doubt
much if they really know that anything
unusual is going on. They show it,
though, for the new feathers, so dark
and glossy, scattered around among
the faded and dull old ones, give ineir
plumace the apperance of a patch
work quilt. We have but one of the
liocks that is ready -ragged, and in all
our experience with Kocks we have
seen but few that were very ragged at
