The Flowers Grape.
WHITEvILLE, n. c., Jan. 80,

w H1IEFlLLE, N. u, Jan. 0U, 1000
1 drop you an item of history in connection
with the Flowers Grape This grape which is
now so anxiously sought after and extensively
cultivated for wine-making, is native of Robe
son county, n. c., and Was discovered prior to
1916, by William Flowers (kaaomn as pipen BIZ
Iy) in Flowers Swamp, from swhence it derives
its name. In 1916 Mr. Giles Williams, who is
now living, visited the parent vine, for the pur-
pose OF obtaining cuttings plants The vine
then had the appearance of being ten or twelve
years old. The precise spot where this famous
grape was first discovered is sixteen miles South
of Lumberton, n. G. From this one parent
vine many thousands of plants have been carried
to all parts of the country, North and South and
the Flowers Grape of Robeson county is now
competing with standard grapes of the old coun-
tries. Many thousands of plants and cuttings
of this grape are now shipped by Express and on
the Railroads every Winter, by the citizens Of
Columbus county, N. c., where this grape is now
more extensively grown than in any other part of
the United States
Among the many excellenccs which this grape
has to commend it to wine-makers, besides ma
king the best wine in the world, is the time of
ripening and the fact that the entire crop ripens
at time, and never fall from the vines until
destroyed by frost-they must have beer frozen
ooAoAo 'A|y i"1i. '0ly iioS.S oo hoo NouSI
them to fall. This grape commences ripening in
September and> first changes slowly from its
green state to dark red or brown color, and con-
tinues gradual change until fully ripe. When
the last Of this reddish color disappears around
the stem, the grape being coal black, which is
proof of its being quite ripe. The stem itself is
one marked peculiarly which distinguishes this
from any other grape; as the stem ent rs the
grape it branches into three prOn@s, Ike tTi-
pod, which reach near the centre of the fruit,
and never give way or pull out till the grape is
fully ripe Wine makers who engage in the
business extensively will find this their best grape,
and while they use the Scuppernong and other
varieties, and have to employ force to pick and
work them, when these are finished up they find
the Flowers all hanging on the vines, waiting,
after all other varieties have been gathered and
worked, so that the hands may not be idle, but
can just be changed over to the Flowers vine
yard, when the best wine will be made last.
Very respectfully,
Wibe. Jousmdl) L. s. MEMORY.

The Dog Question.

When will our Legislators learn wisdom, and
impose tax on the worthless race of ours! In
these times of high taxes, when the revenue
needed by the government is so great as to CON-
pei the imposition of tax on almost every arti-
Gle kept either for ornament or use there is no
good reason why the dog should escape, amid the
general onslaught of the tax-man if he is an arti
Gle of use, the same as the cow or horse, why
should he be favored more than either of these?
If he is kept for ornament, like gold watches or
pianos, let those who can afford to keep him pay
for the privilege of possession, the same as for
other useless worthless, and ornamental gim-
cracks.
A correspondent of the Agricultural Depart
ment, thus gives statement of the general opin-
ion in many places. 81 wish you would urge
Congress to pass Il ''dog law" Negroes who
have not a months rations on hand, keep from
two to FIVE worthless ours. My nearest neighbor
has three families living with him, and l am told
there are Is dogs on the place. AS the produc-
ton Of cotton will probably continue to fall off,
it is important to encourage the growth of wool.
Should the hog cholera continue, and no remedy
be discovered, we must grow beef and mutton
instead of dogs"
SWho can doubt that the wealth of the country
would be increased by millions, by the destruc-
tion of all dogs? Statsticians estimate the
number of dogs in the United States to be two
and half millions; to feed this vast array must
require no inconsiderable amount. Allowing to
each two meals per day, worth say three cents
| each, and the total cost would be but trife
short of fifty five million dollars per year, sum
which, if expended for improvements in the way
of railroads. canals, or similar public works. might
be made of incalculable advantage to the coun-
try; but which now, the greater part at any rate,
goes to utter waste. Besides this AMOUNT, there
is also great loss to the country by the dis
couragement to sheep growing caused by the
ravages Of dogs.
In view of all this, / do not over-estimate the
! case when say that the dogs of this country
, are tax to the people of near one hundred mil
lions of dollars per annum.
Are the blessings of dog-dom commensurate
with their cost Some good qualities they no
doubt have as we are taught to believe that
nothing is made in vain" and we may yet find
some purpose that dogs can serve But, when
their limited services are secured at price SO
great, do we not 'pay dear for our whistle ~

QUALITY OF Wool INFLUENCED BY FEED
Sheep prefer upland pasture, and great variety.
1t has been proved that the pasture has greater
influence than climate on the fneness of the wool
Fat sheep yield heavier and coarser feeces. The
fine focks of Western Pennsylvania, when taken
to the prairies of Western Illinois, in the same
latitude, WILL in few years, change their char
acter. The quality of fleece, and the size of the
sheep will increase, but the fneness of the wool
will not be retained. Sweet Or upland herbage
is the best for fine wool.-Nationai Agricultmist.

Capt. Semmes in Self Defence.

Admiral Raphael Semmes, formerly of the late
Confederate navy, has published card, from
which we make the following extract:
"The New York Times, l understand, for I
have not seen the article, is quite merry over
the fact stated by me i'll one Of my lectures, that
when | captured the California steamer Ariel
did not permit the passengers to be despolled OF
any portion OF their money or personal effects,
limiting myself to the capture of the steamer and
her freight. While struck sturdy and hearty
blows at the commerce Of the enemy as was my
duty, this was my constant practice at sea, and
[ contrasted, in the lecture referred to by the
Times, this practice with the shameful robberies
perpetrated by Sherman and his 'bummers' upon
the women and children of the South, burning
from over their heads the honses which shelter
ed them from the storm, and rObbing them not
only of their jewelry, but their food and clothing.
Will the Times cease a moment its abusive rbe-
toric and deny the facts stated by me! If SO, |
call upon the FIVE hundred passengers whom 1
captured On board the Ariel to contradict it,
Will it object to the contrast have presented Of
my own conduct upon the sea where private
property is subject to capture, and the conduct
of the vandals have mentioned upon the land,
where private property is not subject to capture?
1t dare not 1t is time, then, that all this sense
less clamor about the pracies of the Alabama
had ceased. Her commission was as Legitimate
as that OF Genere Lee, and no one but an ass
will seek to draw any distinction A SANDER
Gus Northern press has poisoned the public mind
to the career Of my ship, and believing in the
fairness of the American people, design at my
leisure and an opportunity may offer, TO present
to my countrymen the tucts-those stubborn
things at which all the Radical pack, Blanche.
Tray and Sweetheart may bark in chorus, but
not one title of which can they alter"
