In the old days, "before the war" it
was the custom of the political parties,
during Presidential campaigns, at least, to
erect lofty ~Aag-poles from which to float
the flag of their particular party, or upon
which might be displayed transparencies
containing the names of candidates for the
Presidency and Vice-Presidency, or any
party slogan that might be in vogue. The
struggle was always to see which party
could secure the tallest pole, upon the
idea, we suppose, that "the longest pole
got the persimmon." The raising Of these
poles and transparencies was usually the
occasion for great rallies, big speeches
and grand demonstrations generally.
Things have wonderfully changed since
then. In these latter days there is not
near so much enthusiasm manifested, nor
near the amount Of money" expended for
banners, flags. bunting, brass-bands, fire.

"A better day is dawning. We notice

ing dray load after dray load Of grass

Glover, Timothy, . Orchard and italian
Rye Grass. . These gentlemen practice
on their farms what they preach in their
counting rooms. They each have the
finest grasses and the finest stock. It
was our pleasure to ride over the large
farm of Mr.. Upchurch a few days ago,
where we saw, as we think, the best
crop of cotton and corn that we have
yer seen on any one farm, and he pointed
out to us about thirty acres in the centre
of his large cotton field, which now bears
a crop that will yield at least 1900 pounds
Of cotton per acre, and said: "I shall
seed that in grass" How many cotton
farmers in North Carolina, would devote
such land-t grass? But he knows what
he is, doing, He knows that it. will pay
better In grass than in cotton. When
will our farmers "learn wisdom?" If
you want good crops you must have
manure; to have manure, you must have
stock, and to have stock you must have
grass. Grass is the basis Of successful
and profitable farming.
