several weeks earlier' than the pro

j
the prices received being in conse
quence many times greater than
can behaft later in the season, when
the fruit has beopme more plenti
ful. Land in this region sells at
from $3.00 to $25.00 an acre, ac
cording to location and improve
ments, and a farmer can oegiu in
six months from the purchase of
his land earning enough to live on
from the sale of early vegetables
and ordinary farm products, sup
porting ;his family .-in this way
while waiting for his trees and
vines to begin bearing.
In the same issue Dr. Charles
Smallwood writes, with all the en
thusiasm of the enthusiasm of the
true sportsman, about ''Hunting
the Wild Turkey in Eastern North
Carolina.?- Mr. Charles T Smith
has also on interest'ng article on
"Fruit-Growing in Georgia, and
Dr. Jay Shrader, of Winter .Haven,
Fla., writes entertainingly, about
the business of ''Tomato-Growing

the eminnt lawyer of New York,
and president of the Southern Ex
change Association, in a brief but
clear and com'preliensive article
sets iorth the reasons for he asso
ciation, the jneed of it, the work it
is designed to do, the msans and
methods it will employ and its
plans of organization. This arti
rle was written in compliance with
a request from the editor of the
Southern States, as the best way
io answer adequately and author
itatively the numerous requests re
ceived bv him from all paits of
the South for information about
the purpose and plans of the asso
ciation. , The series of letters from
"Northern and Western farmers
who have .settled in the South h
continued in this number, with
one'from the fruit section-of Mis
souri and Arkansas :. one irom a
farmer. who moved from Tow'a to
Mississippi ; one from an English
man, who recites his experiences
in North Carolina - one irom a
Peajisyivanian wjho settled in Tide-
Water. Virginia; one from a de
lighted Iowa man in Alabama. who
urgently importunes his friends of
the North to move South : one
from a New Yorker, who
writes i
from. NQCth Carolina that, while
t
he has not grown wealthy, he has
everything he needs and is doing
well; one from a Pennsylvanian
man in Tennessee; one detailing a
Nebraska man's experience in an
opinion of Southwest Louisiana,
rand one from a lady who moved
from what she calls "the country
of the blizzard''' to Louisiana, and
writes with much enthusiasm
about the charms of that section.
.There letters are followed by gome
interesting items about farms and
farmers iu the South.
One of the most important arti
cles l'njhis number is an editorial
showing the fallacy of some state
ments recently .pubjisbd -'by the
United States Agricultural ftwpart-
meht as to- the -present relative rate
of growth of EUj- ahd4 country pop
tfla'fi'dn nvthe South. ' The edito
rial is an elaborate analysis of sta
tistics of population in the South
in the last thirty years. This is
followed by. an editorial showing
that the wave of population that
has been moving from the country
into the 'cities is beginning to re
cede, and that in this turning back
to the farms from , the' cities the
the bouth will Teceive the larger
share. ' The editorial departments

J Kuttwlnff Bear.
A subscriber tells us an inter
esting atory about a bear at Smyr
na, in this county, that has killed
a considerable number of hogs,
Sunday night five guns were placed
on rests ith muzzles pointing
towards a'lead ho the bear had
killed neat: a swamp. An arrange
ment with which we are not ' fam
iliar, was fixed so that when the
bear began eating the. hog the
guns would fire and . he would
thereby cuse his own death.
Bruin in this instance seemed
to be somenhat smarter than the
ordinary bear that ends his life in
this manner.. He hot only went
and'ate up the hog but took one of
the guns and broke the stock into
pieces. It is said that the man
whose jftin was broken, was
so mad that he actually cried.
From the latest reports we hear
that the bear had not been killed.

All'great movements in history
have succeeded after a large am
outit ef talk and agitation. If the
agitation shows that the movement!
has but little merit in it, the peo
ple get tired of it and drop it. If
on the other hand, as is the case
with this move for better roads, it
is full of merit and of vital im
portance to the people it will con
tinue to grow until it has become
a part of the policy and practice of
every, community. We have, been
asleep on the question of public
road improvements for go long a
time that it requixss a considerable;
amount of agitation to wake us up
so that we realize the. situation.
But once aroused the people of
North Carolina can be demanded
upon to do the ribt thing in the
right way.
The great road conference held
in Charlotte in September, ad
journed to meet again in Raleigh
on Wednesday night of the State
Fair week, at eight o'clock, in the
hall of the House of Representa
tives. It is expected that all ot
those present at the Charlotte
Meeting and many additional del
egates from other counties will at
tend this meeting in Haleigh on
October 24th. Every citizen of
the State who is interested in hav
ing better roads (and this includes
everybody) is invited to attend.
Among the distinguiihed per
sons whe will address the meeting
are Governor Caxr, General Roy
Stone, the Government Road
Engineer, Washington, and Hon.
8 B Alexander, the father of the
Mecklenburg good roads move
ment, and others. This will prob
ably be the last State meeting held
by the Road Improvement Asso
ciation bis year, and we desire to
have it the-largest. Let everybody
Who wants better roads com and
take part ia this meeting, and see
the exhibits, and then eo home and
start or nush the movement in
thev own counties aud townships
There will be a large exhibit of
improved road machinery on thej
State Fair Grounds.a part of which
jwii be operated "Vo 'that it can be
seen at work. One part of the ox.
Libit will consist of a county out
fit for road work, with piices and
descriptions of the . machines so
that everybody can see just what a
country ought to purchase as an
outfit for this week.'
. One of the best recent illustra
Uona uf the fact that the people of
North Carolina are becoming a
roused to the importance of this
movement fur better roads, and
that they propoae to do the work
in the right way is seen in the ac
tlou or the authorities of Bun
combe County in sending a com
mittee of citizens to carefully ex
amine the best roads and road sys
tems to be found, in Mecklenburg
county (of our own 8 tote), in Vir
ginia, New Jersey and New York,
This committee has just returned
from its extended trip aud its re
port is now being published in the
Citizen, it has done a' good work
not only for Buncombe but also
for the whole State, and its report
ought to bt widely read in every
county. It is hoped that many
papers will copy it from the Citi
zen.' 'It is expected that the Com
mittee will also make a report to
the Road Improvement Associa
tion in Raleigh, Oct. 24th. '
The finest roads seen by the com
mittee were in New Jersey; where
indeed the finest roads in America
are to found. Those zeacb are
ruacadamized with trap rock, nine
to twenty two ieet wideband all of
them have -been builtj under the
best engineering supervision. On
these raads can be frequently seen
two horses or males drawing loads
varying from two .to five tons and
on a macadam road in Union coun
ty Now Jersey, two horses' were
fcna wn by the writer to pull a load
of seven tons a distance of twelve
miles daily.
Perhaps the roads best adapted
to North Carolina corrditfons and
especially t oux finances, were
seen by the corhmittee in Canan-
daigua New Yori. Concerning
these roads the report says :
Five members of your commit
tee acting on the advice of General
Stone, accompanied him to Can-
andaigua, New York, .'where was
found a character of road improve
ment best adapted to: our means.
Then' the I ax.rhers were, collecting
the stone off their fields and piling
them . up in convenient places,
where tne county hands crushed
them and hauled the metal to the
adjacent roads. They advocated
a macadam not exceeding' eight
feet wide and eight to ten inches
thick, and' used the material un
screened, preferring to have all
sizes mized together (this point
was alio advocated oy General
Stone.) The cost of these roads
we were tola, was from $500.00 to
1900.00 per mile; and we drove
over cne which had not exceeded
the smaller figure.
Everyone with whom w talked
seemed pleased with, the Work
done and generally recommended
a narrower road and a . thicker ma
cadam than was sapd in New Jer
sey. The cheapness of the Caxan-
daigua work, its being done not by
von tract, but on country account;
the division of the public fund
among the citizens, encouraging
the farmers to clear their lands of
stone, were among the znost attrac
tive 'features of our visit to that
plxce. j

The Manufacturers Record has
so ften pointed, out the tolly ol
uuwise legislation .in Regard to
business interest that it would
seem to be almost useless to again
discuss such a question. But ev
ery week brings some eew illustra
tion of the damage done to the
business interests of various states
by rettrictiTe legislation. The
Chattanooga Times, referring to
investigatich recently Fmade by
Ncrthern. Capitalist with a view
to investment in a 6uthoru eu-
terpiise, 1 stafed that both North
Carollua aud Teouvsee were con
sidered and investigated, aud both
rejected because tif unsatisfactory
tax rates and methods. "If cur
lawb," says the Times, ''are barr
ing legitimate investments, they
ought to be relormed. Gnorgia
has 'one very prosperous cotton
tnili, for the creation of which all
the capital went from Tennesee
and its owners carried it to Geor
gia because they were convinced
that the taxation of manufacturers
in Tennesee was uujust, oppressive
and not to be endured if better
environment in this respect w ere
in order."
It would be dixacult to fully es
timate the injury that has been
done the South by some of the a-
grarian, populistic laws that have
been passed Railroads have been
hampered, and ia many cases
building operations entirely stop
ped; manufacturing investments
have been restrcted. and capital
seeking general investment pre
vented from coxninjc into some of
the States by foolish laws laws
supposed to have been made in the
interest of the borrowing classes,
but which ln reality have pro ver,
as they always do under such cii -cumstance9,
a great curse to a i
borrowers. Where wise laws givj
ample protection to capital, tl
abundance of it seeking invent
ment will regulate rates of interest
far better than any attempt on
the part of legislators to control or
dictate the way in which a man
willing to invest his money must
do so. On thia subject some ol
the Southern States and many
Southern statesmen, so called, havo
a great deal k leaxn.
