ingg!y of tho prospects of the enterprise
and the many advantages which would
accrue to that section by tho building
OF the road. A resolution was unani-

IN FIVE YEARS. Tive years ago q
wagon factory was established at
Hickory, N. O., with a capacity Of 500
wagons annually. This same factory
now has q capacity ofG,000 a year, and
successfully competcs anywhere with
the products Of Northern or Western
factories. Our own town has such an
enterprise, and although only cstab-
lished for short time, ii has every
promise Of success. The proprietors
are men of pluck and. energy, and are
determined, by merit to supply this

success which has crowned the efforts
of our friond in the old North State.

The Dog Tax Question.

The question of dog tax is being agi-
tated in many of the counties OF this
State. Tue subject has been brought be-
fore previous Legislatures but no law has
ever been enacted to protect our farmers
from this nuisance. The farmers certain
w need some protection to their sheep
folds from the ravages of worthless ours,
who are allow ed to roam at their own
sweet will. A correspondent in one of our
country exchanges, recently writing on
this subject says: IF all the dogs of the
country were taxed it would not only
produce large sum of money for
the county treasury, which could be de-
voted TO the public schools, the roads, or
10 relieving the taxpayers of the county
of part og their burden. but ii would
Increase the wealth Of the county in
another way. One OF the most profitable
branches Of agriculture Il raising sheep,
our farmers are practically excluded from
this paying industry because their neigh
