As our readers know, the object of the experiments which have been ie progress ever since early spring was to see whether 1 inoculation with Texas fever virus would prevent cattle from being subject to the disease. Of course the results of the test will cot be given out yet I ut it appears that the cattle not vaccinated did take the disease and a portiou of them died from it while the vaccinated ones seemed to es cape It is true two of the latter died, but the death of one was caused by mir ing, and of the other apparently by some other disease than the fever. While the eat'.le not vaccinated seem to lave all taken the lever anel some to have died with it. The official announcement of the result of the expi riment willb for with interest.

Prof. Harry Kramer of Washii gton. D. C, -astonished the natives' W. T. Hill, the bicycle man included with feds on h s wheel at the corner of South Front and Midd1'- streets. He would 1 i :e to ward, backward, stand upright 1 11 ihe bicycle, stand on his head on it and most astonishing of all take oft' the hind wheel and ride with only the Iront balancing himsalf pen lectly and even riding back waul and riding in circles in lhat position. Mr. Hill says he has witnessed exhibitions by some ol the noted whi el men but Prof. Kramer beats all he ever came across. Prof. Kramer is only nineteen ears "' i and Ii;i3 been riding but two yeais, Tnis makes his skill all the more wonder. He uses the Columbia ordinary, the old high bicycle with one large and one little wheel and says he will use do other. He informs us that he has ridden down the capitol steps three timts with the whe?l he has with him anei has also rode a mile in tbree minutes with it. II- has s mie thought of giving exhibitions oi his skill here and possibly of being lu re at the Fair, tie is now on his way to Florida. CORX CROP OF THE STATE. Eastern Counties' Surplus the Cause of their being Called tho Gran ary of Xorth Carolina. Our neighbor, the Wilmington Messenger,- in an article on the corn crop of the State, mentions that there are a number of counties in tbe State that produce much larger quantities of corn than Hyele and others of the eastern counties, re markable for their large production of that grain. This is true, but there are no counties, probably that have so large a surplu- for sale and export. Most of the counties consume at home all, or nearly all, ol their large crops, ;.r.d some ol them even have to supplement their crops by pur chase. It is not the quantity ot an article made by any community that gives it promi nence in that line, but the amount ot surplus, after supplying home wants, that it has to d spose of elsewhere. This proportion in ihe case of Hyde, Currituck, Tyrrell and other eastern counties is very large, and it is that, that has won for them the name of the "Granary of North Carolina.'' REV. E,. W.
