EDUCATION FOR FARMERS.
Every young farmer in North Car
olina has an opportunity to get the
foundation training for his work.
The winter courses in agriculture
and dairying at the N. C. A. and M.
College are practical courses de
signed entirely for young men and
women who can leave the farm only
in winter time.
The cost of the whole course is but
thirty dollars which includes board,
room and books. The lectures and
practical work are devoted 4o stock
raising, dairy farmingj butter mak
ing, milk testing, feeding and breed
ing farm animals^ veterinary medi
cine, entomology, soil study, stock
judging and farm crops.
The value of these courses to a
young man or woman who is inter
ested in agriculture cannot be e.sti
mated in words. The expense of
attending will be paid by increased
profits due to better farming, a huu
dred times.
A circular of information will be
gent to anyone askinp' for the same.
Also any information regarding
any of the Agricultural courses will
be given by addressing the professor
of Agriculture, Charles W. Burkett,

THEY ARE ALL BANDITS.
They say that John W. Gates, the
new Wall ateeet speculator, who
made millions on the L. & N. deal,
has lost $15,000,000 through the
Boekfefeller and Vanderbilt combi
nation in the Northwestern deals.
He is very wrathy and calls them
“bandits.” The whole outfit of stock
gamblers in New York are gamblers
pure and simple, each trying to “do”
the others. A few inonths ago Gates
was the“bandit” that did up Belmont;
to-day Rockefeller and others “do”
Gates. And so it goes—the mad
rush for getting rick quick, Neces
sarily, the man who succeeds gets
what he has not earned and takes it
from some one who probably in his
turn was a “bandit” on a smaller
ficale.

A Sti^tling Surprise.
Very few could believe in looking

An act of charity has just taken
place that deserves special notice.
Guy, the bright little son of Mrsr
Mollie Swaiingen is a cnpple for
life, having been paralyzetl in both [that the lucandcring is not what it is

helpless condition made a deep im
pression upon Jibs. Mary ('liffoid, a
northern lady, who is speuding the
winter in our mifst, aud thiough h« r
influence little Guy was made happy
a few days .ago by the gift of an in
valid’s chair on wheels. By means
of the chair Guy will now be rolled
to and from school and many rays of
sunshine thereby shed into lii; exis

Mrs, Clifford is to be commended for
her charity and thoughtfulness.—

To do justice to this number, whicii

of this Deiember number, for which
