Mr. Fl z?erald has agreed to donate td the trustees of Greensboro' Female College tht sum of $10,000 for the purpose of eve sting a dormitory on the condition -, that other friends of the college contribute $15, A few months ago the trustees decid ed to build a dormitory to cost $25,000 as soon as the funds could be secured. During the past three -years many students have been turned away for the lack of room and a new building was necessary before the patronage could bo increased, Wi M. Curtis, secretary and treaau-T of the college, has been engaged in the campaign to re se the necessary $25,01)0. '. He has secured up to this time $0,000 and now the gift of Mr. Fitzgerald leaves only $9,0i0 to be raised in order to 'secure the proposod new dormitory.

Notice T o Cotton Farmers. On account of the light weight bales coming to this market, the buyers held a meeting and desided for their own protection, that they would not accept a hale weighing 400 pounds or less, uri- ess there is a deduction of ten pounds per bale; consequently in buying light weight bales in your territory, it will bv absolutely necessary for you to deduct ten pounds per bale from bales weigh ing 400 ponnds or under, and -25 pounds per bale from bales weighting 3G0 lbs. or less. The usual custom was to deduct one dollar on .bales under 300 pounds which does not anything like cover the loss. Further we pratiiiu'arly want to call your attention with regard to tare. this must not exceed 22 ponndB per bale, any cotton over tirec1 you must tither refuse to buy itor else buy it subj.ict to tare claim when it arrives at Norfolk, and such notation must be made on the invoice for cotton. We cannot urge you too strongly to follow these instruc- ions very carefully, otherwise we will have to bill you back for any loss sus tained for either of the above raur.es. Yours very truly,,. .

Yesterday at noon the New Bern Chamber of Commerce and the Craven County Farmer's Union met in joint session at the court house for the pur pose of completing and perfecting plans for the big agricultural exhibit, which is to be held in this city on November 22 and 23. After Mr. D. P. Whitford had been elected chairman of the meeting and Mr. J. Leon Williams chosen as secre tary, the gentlemen who had assembled o discuss the plans for the big event proceeded to transact the business be fore them. Mr. Williamstated that at the meeting which was held iu his of fice on the previous Saturday a com mittee was appointed to select a site and secure donations for this exhibit. That this committee had begun work on the following Monday morning and had secured the old tobacco warehouse on north George street, which was gener ously donated for this event by Mr. G. S. Waters who holds a lease on the building. That after this building had been secured space for One hundred booths was marked out and that 66 of of these booths had been Bold to local merchants and manufacturers for $5 each -and that the remainiug 34 could without any doubt be disposed of with out much trouble. This money, he said would be used in paying the ex penses of the exhibit. Mr. Larry I. Moore arose affer Mr. Williams had concluded his report and congratulated the committees who have been so zealous in their work. He said that he was intensely interested in this exhibit and that he would lend his -assistance in any way in making it a suc cess. Further stated that an event of this variety was worth thousands of dollars to a town and New Bern could not afford to let it psss by at any cost, but that it would take considerable ef fort to make it a success and that every citizen should aid as much as possible in accomplishing this end. " Several of the members of trie Farm er's Union then made short talks in which they expressed their intention of assisting as much as possible in making this exhibit the event of the year and that every farmer in Craven county would do likewise. The farmer clear ly understand the fact that the agri cultural part of the affair depends en tirely upon them and unless they put their shoulders to the wheel and'do all in their power the venture will be a j complete failure. After a number of other genelemen had expressed their views (he commit tee held a consultation and decided to i have the exhibit on November 22 and 23. This date is only a few Weeks dU-1 sant and those who take part in the ex hibit will have only a short while in which to do their work; but it was de cided upon mainly on account of the fact that on those two daya the famous Glenn H. Curtis can be secured to give twe flights with his aeroplane and the committee understand clearly tbat they will be compelled to have some such feature as this as a drawing card, and statistics of the various faira and ex hibiti all over the country show that when some special feature is advertised that fully sevemy-five per cent more people attend. ' There Was considerable discussion over the question of having the aero plane, Mr. Williams .stated that he had been in cerrespondence with Mr. Curtis and that he had .agreed to make two flights here, each to last for 30 minutes for $1,000. Of course this Is rHLljer ngn price uui kvuii uuin .i - ltl : I k. ... I ...I aviators had put in their bids ami these were from five hundred to one thousand rlollars higher, The committee then der cided that in order to raise the money to pay for these flights that they,would circulate subscription lists all over the county, each perstinjBuLscribiag for one or more tickets at 50 cents each and a number of the gentlemen who were present were given one of theie lists. These amounts are to be paid ten days after the ticcets have been subscribed for and if the machine fails to fly, the money will be returned. - Taken as a whole there has never been any more interest shown in any similar movement than 'was yeaterdi y at this meeting. Everybody present seemed to be enthused with the spirit of progressiveness and each one was in tent upon doing hia share in securing this exhibit The farmers in adj w ing I counties will also ha extended a cordial Invitation to enter their live stock and farm products and compete for the many prizes that will be 'offered, for the purpose of accomodating the live stock that will be on d.splay, temporary pens will Is built on one side ' of the building. " ' ' ' . In addition to the main exhibit It Is more than probable that there will be a small "midway" where those wfio tire of viewing the exhibits may spend an hour or more attending the sideshow, Taken as a whole and unless some un expected delay occurs this will be a gala week for this city and -every citizen 1 mi. n: n.:.J vjuiuuei i uuui pauu urivca -auviuc Concerning Cotton Crop. New York, Sept, 2. Col. Robert M.

"" "Better than that, however, would be the establishment of a warehouse system by which the surplus cotton could be held off the market," he said ''Joseph' had the right idea back in the days of Pharoohi when he stored up grain in fat years . against, the time when lean harvests threatened famine.
