FARM DEPARTMENT.

Henry Dykstra, well-to-do Hol-
Springfield, says the Times of that
place, is the originator of variety of
winter apple. 1t is of larger size than
the famous Wealthy apple, and more
hardy tree. Mr.. Dykstra planted some
apple seed thirteen years ago. 1t pro-
duced a lot of seedlings, most of which
were too tender and have winter-killed.
Two of his seedlings produced a crop of
apples last season. One of them is a
large and very handsome sweet apple
fectly hardy. The other one is
very large and snowy apple, as
large as the Spy apple, Of rus
Betty-green color, round. stalk long,
set in deep cavity, calyX closed in a
large basin, flesh white, very firm, sub
acid with brisk pleasant flavor, tree
perfectly hardy, healthy, free and of an
upright habit of growth, bark smooth
and of light gray color. In tree, bark,
leaves and frnit, is a full-bloOd variety
Df the apple, there is no trace of crab
favor, as hybridS. like the Wealthy, are
known to be ShOrt-lived; another great
point in its favor is its keeping quality.
The apples are perfectly sound now,
April Is, and by the looks of them they
will keep two months yet, and perhaps
longer. That point alone will make it
the most profitable variety for market,
as neither the Wealthy nor any of the
Russian hybridS will keep longer than
into january. But the greatest point
in its favor is its nativity; here in Bon
Homme county it will succeed and
flourish to much greater perfection
than further east or south. The name
of Henry DykStra will be remembered
for generations to come as the success
full originator of the first real hardy
winter apple in the whole Northwest,
and if planted largely it can be made of
much more value for farmers in Bon
Homme county than rich gold mine.
Peler c. De Linde, the veteran nursery
man of Running Water, Bon Homme
county, Dakota, has bought the undi-
vided right of Henry Dykstra to propa-
gate and disseminate this local winter
apple. He will graft it only on whole
Siberian crab roots, that will induce
early bearing and more dWarfsh habit
OF growth. This valuable winter apple
has been named the Bon Homme Coun-
ty Winter apple, in honor of Bon nOmme
county, where it originated.

before to allude to the growth and
prosperity Of Goldsboro, one of the
most delightful towns in the State,

She is increasing her manufacturing

resources. The A1g"S, one Of the
best edited and most progressive Jour
mails in the State, which has at all
times laborcd zealously for the welfare
Of its town and section. says
Ten years ago there was hardly a
manufacturing enterprise Of any sort
IN GoldSboro, and not one of any con-
siderable note. To day we number
ten broad, flourishing industries in our
city; and the Wayne Agricultural
Works, now under construction con-
tract, will make eleven.

THE PRESS CONVENTION.

WI ~ ~" DG! hiiEsiI III AtS pdl'tL
the Durham Daily 2obafr0 IIanf..
says this of the Press Convention at
Morekcad City last week
We carefully studied the personnel
OF the Convention. 1t contained no
great journalists. 1t, however, had
among the number present some Of
the best fellows in the State, some OF
the hardest working men NC know.
One thing particularly pleased us +;
the moral tone was good. Ii a single
editor misbehavcd in any way while
at Morehcad, or on the way to or
from Morehead, we did not hear Of
it. Whiskey was plentiful and easily OBJ
tainable. Did single editor become
intoxicated? No.
If single member Of the Press As
ISOLATION took 4 drink he was very
quiet and private about it. We are
glad this is 50. We think this an i'm
provement. And an improvement in
morals is even better than an improve
ment in brilliancy apd dash, and sen
sationalIsm. We are glad to bear this
testimony. We kept our eyes open,
and think we are speaking that we do
know. Tine Essaylsts, Poet and His
tiographer failed us. We had not the
pleasure Of the feast we had anticipated
The orator was on hand, but the audi
ence failed to get there. The many
empty benches sat still and made no
nose, and showed one good trait that
some audiences would do we'll to en-
ulate; not one got up and went out
just as the speaker was reaching the
best part Of the address. Taking it
all in all the Convention passed off
very pleasantly. Mr.. L. B. Eldridge
made an efficient president. Mr.. ].
H. Lindsay made good secretary.
Their successors, we think, are worthy
their predecessors. Mr.. Thad X.
Manning, of the Henderson GOLD
LEAF, is the president now, and Mr..
John B. Sheriff., of the Concord
Times, is secretary. We know they
are good officers.
Besides increasing the difficulty oil
becoming members of the Association
by more particularly defining their
qualifications, some steps to form a
basis of rates for foreign advertising
were taken.
The papers Of the State are deter
mined they will no longer submit tc
the dictatorlal tone of advertising
agencies, and they will soon adopt d
basis rate and publish it, and no for
eign advertisement will be admitted
that does not pay the rate. This is
done in self defense No restriction
relating to home advertisements were
made. Each publisher can make bis
own contract with home advertisers
We hope this may, in some measure,
protect the papers from these agen-
Cies.
The Plant has always turned a force
Of flint against these agencies, and nu-
mcTOuo lctlcIo irUuI thcm have been
unanswered and cast into the waste
basket. All the Association asks, all
the press Of the State asks, is to have
fair chance.
The North Carolina editors are
working hard, and by hard work and
stinCy living they make enough to eat
for themselves and build up many big
men and big towns.
If anything is wanted, somebody
must run to the editor and get him to
put piece in tine paper He is the
servant OF all, and like the servant, he
is expected by those he serves to wait
and cat scraps at the seCQnd table.
But we are going to get ready to come
in when the first bell rings before
long.

NORTH CAROLINA PRESS
S. ASSOCIATION.

1t is 4 matter OF regret to the GOLD
LEAF that every editor in the State
does not belong to the Press Associa-
ton. Other professions and trades
have their organizations for mutual
Lcneft and pleasure, and it is but
right and proper that newspaper pub
lisAers should have theirs. We have 4
Press Association, but too few of the
editors belong to it, hence it is net a
State Press Association i'll the StrlctcSt
sensc Of the word. Instead Of the
200 or more papers published in
North Carolina being represented at
our annual meetings, there is barely an
average attendance OF one fourth the
number, and among those who hold
themselves alool from the Association
we regret to say arc many of the
ablest and most influential men. Take
the meeting at Morehead City last
week for instance. While there were
between 50 and 90 members present,
representing some Of the best papers
III the State, whose editors are inteni-
gent, patriotic and hard working; who
reflect credit upon the profession and
contribute their part TO It's advance
ment; VIC could but regret that there
were others who were not there.
Bright and shining lights there are in
TIC profession OF journalism in North
Carolina, wh) arc members of the AS
ISOLATION, it is true, but the GOLD
E LEAF wants to see such men as Kings
bury, of the Wilmington Star, Yeatcs,

cause. We need their presence and
their counsel ii our annual meetings.
We need the benefit of their superior
knowledge and experience, and we
want them TO come in and help us
and most cordially do VIC invite them
to DO So.
Ii there has been objections to the
Association in the past it seems to us
that those objections have now Lecn
removed. If the association is not
what It ought 10 lc III every respect,
Jet those who can 10 50 much to bring

some of the most serious things here
doforc IN the way of many newspaper

citation were discarded at the las.
meeting. ard if there is now anv good
reason why any one may longer hold
himself aloof from an organization
that, properly conducted, must prove
"t great benefit 10 the individual mem

The GOLD LEAF has advocated the
intensive system OF farming as the
wiser course to pursue. A great many
more men can succeed on small than
on large farms, says the american Gu
h0at0r. In the latter case it may be
almost said there is no real success,
the money apparently made being
generally less than fair interest on the
capital invested. This is proved by
the fact that those who try to farm on
a large scale on borrowed capital are
nearly sure to fail. Men who try to
farm moderately are equally sure of a
moderate though substantial success.
