W wish to call attention to a? very valuable Article appearing in the North State Industrial Journal on the sub ject of live stock. Every reader who understands the conditions confront ing us will agree that the Journal's words are to the point, and especially are they applicable to farming condi tions as they exist here in eastern North Carolina. Here we hare the climate, a luxuri ant growth of grass, even in an uncul tivated state making the very finest kind of pasturage; and abundant fa cilities for making a sufficiency of the best of hay and plenty of grain. This live stock industry should by uo means conflict with grain, truck and tobacco farming, but should sup plement it. The editorial in question is given below: Nov is the time to keep more and better stock than ever before. It is a good time now for the farmer to consider what a promising outlook . there is tor him to increase his grow ing of meat animals; or if he does not now make it an object to grow only his supply, does not good common sense teach him that there never was a more opportune period in which to push ahead and grow beef, pork and mutton to the capacity of his farm and conditions? Meats are exceedingly , dear ajnd there is a short supply of . meat animals everywhere wmcn win require years and years to replenish Fricea will probably vary ' some from : time to time, during a few years to eomt) but for a, dozen years meat pri oea will not again be so low as they tiave averaged the last dozen years. Conditions point to the contrary. Take cattle, for Instance. Sufficient breed ing stock la not In the country. They - must be crown, and then there is a warring element against this. Most , of the commercial beef cattle are grown on the range; but settlers have so en croached upon the ranges that public erasing land have been growing earoer and scarcer. It It very easy to see that in time toot very far away all beef and mutton in this country must be grown on farms. ; Stock growing on the ranges la fast passing away. Stock growing conches land, while so much gram arrowing as now, impoverishes it. tirow more stock, and more grain can be grown with it. And while meat an imals have largely decreased in num bers human mouths to consume have Increased with the increasing popula tion. The drought of last season in thA iwina halt MkHnivu t.hji hnT Amn ana wo output or porn very seriously. It will require a long time to get back unto the old basis. Livestock and tillage of the soil were designed by the Creator to goband 4n band. Neither will flourish alone, sever did and never will long at a lime. The soil of England is so very fertile because of the combination of These two forces live stock and thor ough tillage. Only pure bred sires of arecognized beef or dual purpose breeds of cattle must be used, and grade up Hie native stock. They should be sent to the market After two summers' and one winter's Jeeding. They must be kept growing and gaining weight all the time while young by feeding forage and grains that are rich in protein the blood, bone and muScle-fortniug foods and topped off with foods rich in carbo hydrates the fat-making feeds. This is the most profitable course for the farmer to pursue. The same principle Applies to all kinds of stock kept on the farm. . ' , All know that at the present time meat is very high, and that the chances I mm that it will continue to be high. What better, then, could the farmers do than take advantage of the situa tion and raise not only their own meat and live stock, but raise it to sell. There is much in the suggestion.

Carolyn Wells, the writer of popular books, whose qiinint conceits In verse and prose have attracted the most fa vorable notice of both the public and reviewers, Is one of the cleverest of tht few women who do really humorous work. Miss Wells is young, attractive and vivacious, interested In many thing besides authorship and Is somewhat fond of society. She live with hex people at Rahway. N. S., near enough to New Tork to enable her to keep Id touch with the editors and publishers. with whom ber productions are In de mand. The latest work of Miss Wells It a burlesque historical novel entitled "Abenlki Caldwell." In writing this work the author has apparently had s V 4 j 48 'if it v Just When tht Trouble Li 94 .

"The trouble." she said, "does not He with the pies." , " "Nor" 'he returned inquiringly. "Oh, dear, no," she asserted, "The trouble lies With your palate tnd digestion- Pies have not deteriorated since you were young,' but you have. The pies that I make would have tic kled you in those days as much as the pies your mother used to make, and the pies your mother used to make would give you the same brand of dys pepsia now that mine do. Let us hear no more about it, please." And after mature reflection he de cided that it would be just as well to do a little less In the line of criticism.

This cathedral Is of white stone. built in the shape of a Greek cross. It has golden cupolas at Its corners and a great dome in the center, all of which are covered with copper plated with gold. It took 900 pounds of gold leaf to plate the dome, and it is estimated that there is 1. 000,000 worth of the pre cious metal upon it The interior of the cathedral contains marbles and pre cious stones costing $2,000,000,' and Doing Time.
