Ia the bulletin Com missioner Robinson says: "The con dition of farmer in North Carolina is one which gives great aosuranoe a' tnis time, ana snould encourage our peoph very much. In the north and particularly northwest, the suffering and destitution au.ongst the one crop tarmers is sucb as to cause great ap piehension. So great is tbe depres sion that many are writing this offloe in searen oi new bomes in a mild climate where a variety of farm products may be grown The financial depression has affected our tarmers but little; tbey may not. and in many oises have not much, if any, cash, but they have plenty to feed man and beast and a prospect of a good crop before them Tbe clt matio conditions have never beeu better for the furtherance of all farm operations than we have enjoyed in tbis state ibis year ; and that, too, while the great northwest felt the blizzaid and was buried in snow We are sure that our section must ultimately become the great garden and dairy of the eas. tern balf of this great country Let our farmers see to it that they grow a sufficiency of food stuffs, so tbat tne problem of 'What snail we eat?' may be solved; then put in all the cotton and tobacco that can be well tended, and no more. This 1h the only safn com 68 for our people Don't forget a good kitchen garden tbe bealtb and comfort of the bouse hold demand that this matter be at tended to." The city last fall purchased a steam road-roller It owns no stone crush er or screens and as a result tbe roller has stood idle all these months of fine weather No stone has been.crushed, streets macadamized, and the roller has not turned a wheel. There are thousands of tors of granite in the city's quarry. An engine is needed there to pump oat the water. The question now is will anything be done or what does the oity propose to do If any citizan will ask supervisor Mc Mackin what the township steam roller has done.since it was purchased ( little later than the city roller) be will be astonished This matter ought to be looked into Raleigh's streets have been, like its sidewalks, too long a reproach, for machinery which can Improve them to stand idle.
