Friday, September q, tqio Now thv-re is a movement pn hand to start the conservation of the bull frog. To mike a gor>d be ginning the small boy should be boufcht off from his most pleasant j occupation of locating the hole of frog for future angling. .■ .-jSL-.L. .; The Circulation Miuager of The Progressive Farmer has this to say of otir last issue: "That was a splendid wt i'e up and we assure you j that we appreciate it " We ate the friend of the farmer and advo-1 icate whatever is helpful to their I interests. North Carolina owes j much to The Proge->sive Farmer j and Gazette. Theie s -ems to he some need for ! better sanitary conditions in the towns of our county Those in authority should make the best] regulation for the cleanliness of the! towns and then should see that the j same are carried out. A few cases' of fever will cost nore than the' cleaning of our streetH and back lots. There is some complaint about the condition of the back j lots in our business section. The [ law iu this matter should be rigidly | enforced. * ... ■ I •• The correct report of the census 1 will be given ill November. In j the meantime all wtgers 011 the population are being held firmly, j .Some people must have been'seeing double when they bet on the report! for the population will not exceed I 90,000,000,. it is estimated. Those! rival cities in North Carolina are i keeping quiet these days. Even I the knowing ones in our own town failed to come within five of the actual count. People are | not as many as they seem aud must j be counted as only one. The Fertilizer Trust Perhaps, no trust has fattened faster than the fertilizer trust. For a number of years after the begin • ning of the useof commercial ferti lizers, the Southern farmers bought something iu a bag marked guano. Sometimes it was good and fre quently it was worthless. The dis covery was made aud our lawmak ers got busy and required a stand ard analysts and that the same should be branded on the bag. Then the State Board of Agricul ture begau to enlighten our fann ers, teaching tlurn concerning the elementary iugedieuts of guano and how to take the various mater ials that furnish plant food and mix them at a much lower price than the ready-mixed goods. At the same time freight charges could be saved on large quantities of filler whicliisgenerally mud orsotneother worthless material. Many farmers seeing this advantage, proceeded to do their own mixing aud secured goods at a lower price. This did not please the trust and it has taken steps to bead oft the movement by engaging from all dealers in acid, potash and nitrogen their entire product for the coming season. So there is little doubt that guano bewlli $2.00 to $4.00 higher per ton than for this past season. It seems there is no redress when once we are in the clutches of a trust. We have to stand by and quietly submit to its ravages. Ii ' . the farmer cannot protect himsell by la«».4ie can, at least, dispense with the need of so much common fertilizers by the use of home-grown home-made and home-saved fertili zers. We can get vegetable mat C-, . ' ter from the various winter cover crops, such as rye and oats. Nitro gen may be had from every mem ber of the pea family. Nearly eve ry farmer has a good supply of ' potash and acid just about three ' inches irom where he has been farming, and if he will settle his plow down, they w 11 relieve the Strain'of buying so much high ' j priced fertilizers by that put in the 1 lapd several years ago, ami ha» ' j settled Just a little below the present .' plow aud root limits. Now is the best time to prepare for winter cover crops and the etorly , winter is the time to plow deep • Farmers deFend yourselves against the grasp of the guano trust by purchasing as li'tle as pos-iLle Another Democrat Write# 5 - ! Mr. Editor: — In your last issue I notice the ' writings of a Democrat. The Demo crat seems to think that the only aspiration for a mother's son is office, which some wise men think is a -.erious mistake. That Detuo crat also tefers to the fact that we ! have had so few sheriffs since the ! war, and still he tloes not go far ! enough to say that,a majority of j those we hive had were not success ful. All the public needs and wants lis a man that will do the required | work in the proper and satisfactory manner. Office should nevir be |c»meja political football, but should j >»e put up to true jnerit, so that a ] man's strength will lie in his being | a real man of the people ami for the people. The handling of $30,000 to 540,- 000 requires considerable attention, ! and in my opinion our present j Sherifl cannot be excelled, Another Democrat. Ten Things to do this Month ■ 4 1. Begiu sowing winter oats. Keep ou wroking all land intended for winter grains, making it os fine and firm as possible. 2. Sow cover crops, rye, vetch, I crimson clover, rape, etc. whenever I you can. Sow some pasture lots 1 for the hogs, and one for the chickens. 3. Cut up the corn when ripe, | shock loosely and shred the stover if a shredder comes way. This, of course, if you haven't a I silp to put it in. 4 Save the cowpea*, soy beans and other hay crops. Don't neg lect even the crabgrass. Too much liay in the S>uth is a thing un known. 5. Save seeds—make the be t possible selections in the corn field before cuttion, and iu the cotton field before picking. Insure cow peas aud soy beans for planting. Save also a supply of garden seeds. 6. Plant fall garden-stuff—lettuce radishes, onions, etc. Prepare land for setting fruit trees aud smUl fruits. 7. Keep the hogs going th ir best. Add some grain to what thev get in the pastures. Give-the cows some grain, too, if pastures get dry. * « - 8. Get next winter's -supply «of wood ready, aud put it under a conveniently located woodshed | wlwrtTTTwill keep dry. 1 j 9. See about your roads; if they need improvement, talk it over ' with your neighbors and decide on i a plan. Make a road drag sotre j rainy day. ' j TO. Visit your schools; help the ' 'children all you can; consult with ' the teacher, and theu co-operaje j with her. \ Thi Lash of 1 FrUnd 1 would have been about as webome !to A. Cooper of Oswego, N. Y., jas a merciless lung-racking cough i that defied all lemedies for years. r j "11 was most trouble at night," he writes, "uothing helped me until I u used Dr. King's New Discovery a which" cured me completely. I ' never cough at night now." Mil lions know its matchless merits for stubborn colds, obstinate coughs. If sore lungs, la grippe, asthma, hemorrhage, ctoup, whooping u cough, or hay fever.
