THAT CRY or ssNIGGER.o

The radical party tries to fool the
people into believing that Democrats
yell "nigger % when there is no
cause for it.
The truth is that the radicals them
selves have drawn the color line. In
Eastern counties white radicals elect
themselves to Office by appealing to
the negroes to support the radical par
ty, the only party that gives the col
ored men chance &c.
Nor is this true only in the cas- t.
A few weeks ago a Harrison and
Dockery club was to be organized in
Winston and white man wrote the
circulars on which were the words
"Colored men to the front !" Isn't
this drawing the color line? 1t is
arraying black against bite but the
Democrats have willingly accepted
the issue If in the radical party the
colored man must come to the front,
then it's high time for the selfrespect-
ing white man to become ashamed of
their party and slip out the back
door.
The radisals will do everything in
their power to win. Ifthey win negro
judges will be elected in the east and
as the judges rotate, we of piedmont
North Carolina must be judged by
negroes The Republican party,
with 100000 negro voters will be com-
PEELED to give them office.
White men OF the 9Th district, do
you like the picture? Do you want
a negro to deal justice in your courts
In saying this, we mean no unkind
ness to the negroes, hut simply to re-
cognize the feeling that possesses every
Anglo-Saxon and makes him revolt at
tie thought of being ruled by a me-
gro. North Carolina white men will
deal honestly by negroes, treat them
with utmost kindness and humanity,
minister to their sufferings, relieve
their wants, build asylums for their
unfortunate and schools for their
children /; in word, do everything in
their power to improve the moral, in.
tellectual, social and physical condi-
ton of the negro, but they will never
consent to live under his rule.
It was this feeling, born in the white
man, that has grown with his growth
and strengthened with his strength,
that led to the return to the present
system of county government in North
Carolina, and we scorn to attempt any
disguise or concealment of the fact.
As substitute for the present sys-
tenn of county government, Colonel
Doekery says
Let the Legislature pass an act
authorizing the governor, on the petit
ton Of not less than one hundred
freeholders of any county, to appoint
a board of audit and finance for each
county, to consist of as many members
as the board of commissioners, to be
of both political parties, and the ma
jority thereof to be of opposite politics
to the majority of the board Of COM
missioners, without whose consent not
o dollar Of the peoples money shall be
expended, Z
This proposition fas also a high.
radical endorsement Of Judge Russell,
who says that he publicly made it
some Xix years ago.
What Dockery and Russell do not
know about negroes and the Radical
party it may be said is scarcely worth
knowing. From Che time that party

When such men as Bishops McTyeire, Kesner
and Granbery, and Drs. Deems, Kendall, Cook
ard Morrison write in recommending book,
there must be good reasons for 1t. Seeing that
they and other prominent Methodist divines
had spoken well of"The Story of Methodism,"
we open its pages with natural presumption
in its favor. Nor were we disappointed. The
book is attractive and valuable Though prop
erly called "The Story of Methodism, - it is nei-
tn er light nor fictitious. Though it is veritable
history, it has all the fascination of a story The
narrative is as pleasing to the mind as the me-
chanical execution of the book is pleasing to the

Extensive Farming.

Many farmers do not understand how to
reduce their fields and increase their harv-
ests, says writer in the Southern CuLtiva-
tor. do not intend to go into long and
labored scientific exposition of the means
and methods required to accomplish this,
but propose to give some plain, practical
advice to govern the farmer who may de-
termine to adopt, as rule of action, smaller
fields and larger harvests.
1. Begin by laying off one-half of the
land you have usually cultivated and Sc
cure it from stock by good fence. When
this is done realize that your great objects to
make that half of your farm produce more
the first year than the whole did the last
year. Now go earnestly and industriously
to work to make this result certain.
2. Gather together in one common mass
everything which may help to form valu-
BILE compost. To prevent waste place your
material for the compost heap in a ditch
dug for the purpose, and into it dump all
the scrapings from your wood yard, stable.
cow and sheep lots, and, in fact, every other
available substance. Keep this up until
your ditch is nearly filed, when you should
prepare similar receptacle for the future
accumulations. The compost mass should
be kept sufficiently moist to promote fer
mentation; cover it so as to protect it
from the sun, and also secure it from the
rains.
8. If you raise cotton to any extent, see to
it that all the seed, except those required for
the next years planting, are returned to
81 ;oI,t
the folly of selling to the oil mills unless
you are sufficiently near to substitute the
Gotten seed meal or cake for the whole seed,
and in such quantities as will give you the
advantage in the exchange.
4. Turn over all of the land in the
fall which you intend to cultivate the fol-
lowing year, being careful to cover all the
vegetable accumulations that are on the
surface.
9Th. Apply your compost and other fer
tilizers Gf the compost heaps are not suf-
ficient) early in the year so that when the
time for planting comes you may put in
your seed with the assurance that your land
is possessed of more than double the pro-
ducing power of the last year, and you will
be likely to realize a greater harvest from
half the land, half the labor and half the
expense involved in the production of last
years crop.
6. Continne to increase the fertility Of
your land, from year to year, for five years.
and at the end of this period you can esti-
mate your farm at 500 per acre, instead Of
s. or $40, which was its intrinsic and COM
mercial value when you adopted as a rule of
action "Smaller fields and larger harvests. !"
You may also congratulate yourself that
you have increased your harvests at much
less labor and expense, having had album
dant opportunity to improve your buildings
and pay greater attention to your domestic
animals, fowls, etc.

quainted with the winter quarters and
winter food of such animals in these
states, the only food they have to sustain
life until the grass rises in March and
April, can have no conception of the intense
and long continued agonies that these
wretched creatures suffer. The old cows
and weak animals that die early in the win
ter are the most fortunate, for they avoid
frost and rain and sleet, and husks, stubble,
Spanish moss and browse that keep stronger
animals from dying, and prolong their ter
rible sufferings.
In the opon prairies of Texas, without
shelter summer or winter, there were at
least 100000 out of tho 100000 head
owned by the stock owners of the state that
had no cane brakes or river bottoms or
wind brakes of any kind to shelter them
during the "northersn and billiards"
They lie down in the thickest grass they can
find, and their backs have to take the pelt-
ing storm and blizzard, rain and sleet, day
and night, their only food the dead grass Of
the prairies.
And Texas, in 1879, made less than $4,000
tons of hay for 100000 cattle, S05, 900
horses, 1888 900 head of mules, and 2,4l1 900
sheep; over 100000 head of hay eating
animals, about IA pounds head for each
animal, for the whole winter.
Mississippi needs a hundred times more
hay than she now makes. A ton of hay for
every COW and OK. and for every five sheep,
would put stop to most all of this yearly
suffering and death among the cattle. 1t
would do more-fed out in bad weather as
needed, in barns and comfortable sheds, it
would give the farmers immense quantities
of manure that is now nearly lost to the
farms and the state. 1t would secure an
abundance of fat beef and fat mutton. and
milk and butter, and the milk would help
feed the families of the farmers the year
round, and feed the poultry and pigs,
which can be but poorly done without hay
and manure in abundance. Next to full
corn house, is barns crowded with good hay,
aud stacks besides.
Cattle in cold ATTITUDES, in New England
and Canada, live through cold winters on
hay alone, and come out in the spring in
good order. Less than half the hay per head
needed in these cold climates would carry
cattle through in the gulf states in full
strength and fine health
