Rich. ard Greenwood was also acquitted of blockading, be having been arrested in Surry. It is expected that the case against the Lane and Nance brothers, of Wilkes county, will be called sometime this afternoon. They are alleged to have been the assail ants of deputy marshal Robert Henry several months ago, when he, with a party of officers, was fired upon and several horses killed. Mr. Hen ry has practically recovered . from his wounds and is here as a witness for the government.

Speaking of duplication, Major Graham says the state suould' pre serve its policy of instructing adult farmers even if it duplicates to some extent t;ie work of the national de partment. The stat,e cannot know when the national department will abandon its present policy, and for this reason it Is essential that a pro gressive policy he maintained, He urges heartily co-operation, howev er, -.A . conference; on co-operation I between Mr. Bradford Knapp, Mr. Hchaub and Mr. Hudson has bee'n arranged, the .commissioner says. ConimjitLces Ironi the college and department of agricuture have rec ommended co-operation- on the part of both institutions in the matter of experimental and demonstration, work. ; ltoorgaiiization. . As to tlie reorganization scheme the commissioner says: Itenmrkablc Sltuiition, The resolution adopted as to the reorganization of the department seems to have been misunderstood; the committee on co-operation with the A. and M. College thought that the conclusion was to be reported to them fromcsxecut ion; some mem bers of the hoard thougiit it wa- to be reported to the next session of the . board for action and thi was the opinion of the commission er, as he would not recognize any action which interfered with the du ties conferred upon him by law. It is a remarkable occurrence, an at tempt Is made to place two employes of the department, neither of whom was a citizen of the state until in duced to become so by lucrnitve po sitions in authority over the com missioner, who is elected to his po sition by a majority of the voters of the state, and his duties defined by the law; legal interpretations of what are his duties was furnished by the attorney-general at the join re quest of the commissioner and the beard. Yet he-is to be deprived of bis rights. One or these men is em ployed by the commissioner and sub ject to be removed by him, the other is employed by the board and his duties prescribed by law; tiiey all direoted to perform an act (for wiiich there is no authority) over their fellow employes, and to pre scribe to each of them his duties, and then if they cannot agree, there is to be another employe Who Is to decide the question Most, of the ills of childhood are caused by a sour, disordered stomal ach, sluggish liver and constipated bowels.

Some of the members of the board do not seem to appreciate the dif ference of the dignity and authority of a member of the board, and one of its employes, and that there is no authority for the employes : to perform duties which are given to the board. The board certainly can not authorize others to do what they have no power, to do, nor can they itransfer to others duties consigned to tiiem . except as the law may pro vide. Would Be Dismissed. The resolution attempts to -give the only employe of the department who is complaining of infringment in his division by others plenary powers to settle his affairs. He and his colleague are to judge of mat ters relating to other divisions of which they have neither the know ledge, oversight nor connection. 1 do not think a majority of the board will approve of any such illegal and discourteous measure, and do not deem it necessary to discuss it fur ther. These imported regulators eem to have understood the reso lution to be intended as a discourte. sy to the head of the department, and never consulted him in any way as to his opinion as to what was to be done. There was no attempt to put anything into execution. Any employe .attempting to - interfere with the duties of the commission er would have been promptly dio- mlssed. - When the commissioner thought the board was trespassing on duties assigned to him, he proposed to have me matter settled by procuring from the attorney-general an opinion re lating to it (as the attorney-general is authority on legal matters ontil decided by the courts); to this the board agreed, and appointed a mem ber of the board, who accompanied the commissioner when he waited upon that official. This was done, and the attorney-general furnished the opinion in plain, unequivocal language. I think it is necessary at this Juncture that the board should give aa expression declaring its rec ognition of the legal status of the attorney-general and that his opin ion will be recognted as law until overruled by competent, tribunal, or by refusal to pass such resolution notify the attorney-general that thief deem themselves as superior to him, stating whether in .the capacity of supreme court or as a legislature. The oath , of the commissioner Is to Mxy; the laws of the state. " If this is not don It will be necessary for the comittiSBloner In hi owa de fense and In respect, to the lav to carry the mattef Intocourt, or to compel'' any one attempting to act contrary to said opinion to do so. The commissioner has passed his three score years and ten and has as little altercation with his fellow men as any other man of hiu years, It is certainly disagreeable to him and he would be more than pleased to have it cease. Confusion ("aiised. "Confusion has been caused by having propose'd changes in the work of the department brought to the notice of the board just before the adjournment, after having been cau cassed by a few- members; a vote was taken without opportunity for consideration ; and discussion. It would be better to have all such matters lie over from the session when proposed to the succeeding seesion before being voted upon. I think this course would prevent fur ther friction and misunderstanding, and tend to harmony and good feel ing.';'"' Must Uecosnizc Uiglits, : "I I'.ave no ..'desire co usurp any authority given the board and hope that at leart a majorily of the board feel disposed to recognize tae legal rights of the commissioner and that these resolutions which are useless as well as illegal will cease, and that the entire board will' unite with the commissioner in advancing the good work which the department - has done and is now doing, each giving the other respectful and courteous consideration. '..'.. ; , "I thinK the duties and rights of the -board and of the commissioner are plainly defined by law and by the opinion of theY attorney-general." i ' Farmers' institutes. Major Graham' gives in detail the work done by the several divisions of the department. There were 471 farmers' institutes held in 97 coun ties, with air attendance of 64,518.-' Not all of the applications for insti tues were granted,, he says; ami de clares that no other work has been as benelicial;'. the interest increasing each year. The commissioner says every railroad is promoting agricul ture by giving the department valu able assistance,: sometimes running special trains ot tneir own and car rying lecturers from the department. Oil Inspection, The division of oil inspection re ceived S-'U, !:;;!. 'JO from June 1st to December 1st, and had a balance in June of $2,136.83. The expenses for the entire year were $49,176.82.'.. Sot Separated. Of the test farms tUe commission er says; ;" There seems to be an idea, or rather u presumption, with some that this -.'division of the work is sep arated or fenced off from the other work of the department, and is com- they w ill give expression of what work should be done at each. The Transylvania Farm should be used to demonstrate fruit culture. U should be self-sustaining but in .the production of corn and other grains experiments can be made which will be benelicial; The Buncombe Farm is intendes especially for . stock and grain and grass. At least fifty acres should be left with under growth cut out but otherwise uncleared for pasture. The Iredell Farm is doing the work anticipated for it, except that there is not a milch cow on it. No farm in this state can be considered a model wiiich does not produce the milk consumed upon it. The Edgecombe Farm is for cot ton and should produce more cotton to the acre and keep the land at a higher state of restoration and pre servation of fertility than is seen on the neighboring farms. The Pender Farm is for vege tables and truck. If the dairy can be made to pay expenses and to pro duce the animal manure needed for the farm it should be continued, but if it does not do this after a fair trial, it should be abandoned. Losses Xot Reported. Among the losses which I have not found reported was the death of the Percheron stallion at the Edge combe Farm, also of an Angus heifer which had been sold but was killed in attempt to ship, and of a mare at the Pender Farm, which was tethered by the leg, her buck broken and death followed. The State Chemist. Oommjseioner U'raJham - says the state chemist should attend to the duties prescribed by law for him The state pays its chemist, the com missioner says, a high salary, and he should not be made to do the work for which a practical farmer is more suited. He recommends that the office of assistant director be abolished; "the present occupant is a pleasant, man to associate with and .capable in his profession, but tie is not necessary in the work to be done," and suggests that he might be transferred to some other division.

Try test farm committee.- This is an er ror; it is as much subject to the di rection of the commissioner, and un der the control of the board, as any other division. An attempt was made to this end at the Juno meeting, 1910. Thei commissioner opposed It as an In-1 fMngemcnt -upon hiB duties and con- tray to law; the subject was submit ted to the attorney-general who sustained the position of the com missioner. ."" i A Change Crged. The discontent' of the members of the board with the condition of the test farms and the work connected with theni was unanimous, and a change was urged by all. The com missioner said what was needed was change in the directorship, that the director should be a practical farmer, skilled and experienced In his work. The state chemist was skilled in his profession, yet he did not have the practical experience re quired for the efficient management of the farms. The high salary paid him was on account of his ability as a chemist, but the department is not getting the benefit of his chemical knowledge, as he is put in charge ot other work, for which a more com petent man could be had at a much lower salary. , Value f Farms.
