CREMATION Is growing popular.
The Lemoyne furnace is unable to
meet the demands made upon it, and
Philadelphia Company will erect
one near that city. Lancaster and
New York are also discussing the
question, while in England there is
a growing sentiment in favor of the
new method of disposing of the
dead.

The great variety of soils together with the
climatic conditions gives rise to the great va
riety of natural products and large yields, and
lays the foundation for an immense range OF
agricultural products.
Cotton, grain, tobacco and rice are the lead
ing staple crops.
The Chinese tea plant fourishes through
out the Eastern half of the State.
Flax, hemp and jute grow to perfection,
and could be made paying crop.
SuK.-Thc products of this industry in our
State are equal in quality to the French and
Italian silk.
Irish and sweet potatoes are paying crops.
NEGETABLEs.-Now where in America can the
trucking business be carried ON to more profit
than in the Eastern counties of North Caro-
lima.
MARKETs.--Th distance to New York from
the eastern and northern parts of our State is
no farther than from the western part of New
York State to New York.
Price of land varies with the distance from
market and fertility. The price of average
quality is from three to ten dollars per acre.
IMMIGRATION.
Many immigrants have come INTO the State
during the past year, chiefly from the North
ern and New England States. We have spe-
cial rates with transportation companies from
Boston, New York and Baltimore for very
