C, July 26 Fhi? ., radically different conditions that confront the railroads of the Southeast as compared with those of the Northwest and the work of soliciting Canada in agrieultur- al immigration into their respee- tive territories are shownn in a !i tement tftrikmgly made Pres the South- ident W W. Finley of em Railway company, replying to Vritk-sms made in an inter view recently printed, in a pro gressive Southern newspaper, , in which it was stated that the rail roads of the Southeast are not do ing their full duty in endeavor ing ff jfittract tfe.sira.blp Lmm'j- grants into the South, their efforts being contrasted with the activity of a railway in Can a da. Presi dent Finley says: "In comparing the work of this character beirig done jy the rail way companies of the Southeast with that being done by the Can adian co'mpany referred' to, and by some of the western transcon tinental lines in the Urited States, we should not lo.se sight of the fact thiit. many of th eWestern lines, both in the Ur ited States and Canada are owners of large tracts of agricultural lands, granted to them in aid of their construction. The revenues which they obtain fi-t m the sale of these lands constitute, fundi, on which they can draw' for expenditures in connection with the .solicitation of immigration and other develop ment work. "The companies operating in the Southeasterji States, however, must draw on their operating rev enues for all expendit ures of this character. Vv hat this means may be made clear by citing some fig ures from iho last, annual report of the Canadian line mentioned in the interview referred to. The land grants to that line have amounted to 33,416,202 acres, of which 12 013816 acres were .?till unsold as of June 30 1911. In the year ended on that date its revenues from land sales amount ed to $6,106,483.15 anil its aggre gate revenues from lands had amounted he sale of o the very considerable s.-m of $81418,141.59. "The Southern Rail Way has no uch ' large tracts of land whieh can be dispose! of to immigrants and, consequently, does not. enjoy the advantage of large revenues from land sales, but must draw on its operating revenues for expendi tures in connection with the solic itation of immigration and other developmert work. The "Western lines mentioned, in addition to having large .sums of money at tht:ir command, realized from the sale of lands, for, use in the solici tation of immigrants, tion to offer, their own are m posi- lands direct io grants at definite prices, wher.f, the lines of the South arge, bodies , can do no prospective east having no such of lands of their own fnore tnan ormg buyers into touch with those having lands for sale, and cannot always be certain that the prices x of lands may not hay e been ad vanced since they were quoted to our iitniirration and industrial agents. ' ' Notwithstanding he fact that the Southern. Railway is without these advantages . enjoyed by some of the "Western f rum the time of its lines, it has organization maintained a, Land and Industrial Department for the purpose of co- oneratinsr with the committees along its lines for their develop t. It i striving men to make its work in this direction in the high ail degree helpful and in the year ended June 30, 1911, its ex: penditures for development work exceeded ifeose of any other rail way company - in the United States witlt the single exception i one of the transcontinental liLts. . .-. ; EXPERIMENTAL FARM WORK Letter from Department of Agri culture. Some days ago we called the at tention of -our people to the local experimental farm work we are doing in tk-e different counties in the state. Not all of the counties have these farms yet, but we con fidently expect to get the work in at least 80 per cent of the coun ties this year, j The work done on these farms is smm as will interest every man who tills tihe soil. Some of them have fertilizer experiments ; some cultural methods experiments; some variety tests; some testing the relative value of fall as against spring spreading of manure, etc., in Ml of which the farmer has a vital interest. Large signs are erected in front of these stations and the details I of tin. work are carefully labeled withlarge letters on painted boards so that all who pass by may see and understand the work in operation. There may be a few cases where from one cause or another, such as failure tb. get a stand, un usually dry weather, forced inat tention to the work" on the part of the farmer, etc., show, but we will have to ask you to wait un till the following experiment is placed on the road as the result may be more interesting. You -.will generally find two ex periments on your road each year one during the summer and dur ing the winter and spring. The nature of the experiment can al ways he understood from the signs in front of it. TVe have to grapple with weath er conditions just like you do, but we are very much gratified to be able to say jthat our work this y.r is doing extraordinaryily well in all the counties considering the untoward conditions under which our local experimenters have had to work. Much credit is due them for the interest and determination shown in carrying out the instructions. ; "While the department furnishes all the fertilizers and all the seed, when necessary for the prosecu tion of this experimental work, the farmer does not get anything extra for his work. The work is so planned that; the extra time given to the experimental side of the work just balances' the extra l'er-' er used on the part of the acre not under experiment. It will be seen, therefore, that these men are engaged in a patriotic s'.-r-Vf to the state. The most important return is their increased knowledge of their local condi tions. - Next week Ave expect to begin a series of articles in this paper on organic matter in the soil and will emphasize the use of green manur ing crops as the best and easiest means of putting humous in the soil which is the basis of all soil fertility. , J.

WATCH IN DEAD ALLIGATOR Clears Up Disappearance of Youngr Florida Woman. Special dispatch to the Atlanta ' Journal. Forsyth Ga., July 25 This town was thrown into unusual ex citement Thursday morning when the startling news was circulated that a valuable gold watch of ti e Waltham make had been found on the . inside of an alligator that died ur!y that morning in a large pond near the city. The 'gator was brought to this city about two (ysars ago by Mr. J. M. Jackson, Jr. from Is1 and Grove, Fla., and was put in the pond near here. Those who discovered the dead 'gator cut it open and were dumb founded when they discovered the gold wi,tch on the insi. Local jewelers who sawT the watch said it was a crth at least $50. . Attach, ed to it wrere a valuable chain and eh aim. The very deepest cu riosity of the people here were aroused by the discovery of the gold w&teh in the abdomen of the ded ;dlligator, and no one could advance any supposition as to how the alligator got hold of the watch and swallowed it. Mr. Jaeks who brought the 'gator h?re' bel;eves that the finding of the watch on the inside of the rsp file clears up the mystery of he disa .i arauce of a young girl alout 12 years of age from the home of her parents at Island Grove, Fla., just a few weeks be fore he came to Forsyth. Mr. Jacksonj who knows the names of the girl's parents, says that she was missing from her room one night, and she could not be located, although a most dili gent search was made for her. He says that when last seen some time duv'ng the day, the. girl M as standing on the bank of the lake, where ITe captured the alligator aiready referred to, and that at the l;mc &he was wearing a gold watch of the Waltham make with her initial ' engraved on the back of the watch. The same initials are on the back of the w t-tch discovered on the in side of the dead 'gator Thursday morning. J t is strongly believed by him. and, fill others here that while the girl was playing on the bank' ot the , lake the alligator came upon the bank and devoured her. Mr. Jackson does not know whether' ike girl was ever found l y her partnts or not, as he left Island Grove before her where-. abouts l ad been ascertained. He v.-ilf ci r.;mur:'cate with the parents of the missi rg girl. It beats all how soon potato bugs will trim up a patch if you g to thinking of something else "aijd fotrget them. Better keep yf tiv thinking cap on, and hustle those bugs out so quickly their heads will swif. Thin the fruit if it needs it; this ir better paying method, than propping branches. Place a two-pound paper bag over each bunch of grapes when the fruit is the size of small shot. This protects the grapes from in sect and bird injury, and insures extra choice clusters. Fasten the mouth of the bag (close about cadi stem with, a pin or wire or string. Look out for the blighted twigs and branches on pear trees. No remedy is known for this bad disease except to cut out' the in fected parts promptly and burn Al ' mem. je sure to cut well below the diseased wood. Disinfect the pruning implement by dipping 11 lreiuently in a strong solution of carbolic acid. Notice of Land Sale State of North Carolina, Hay wood County, in the Superior Court. . C. B.
