BLADEN, COUNTY.

This body met in Elizabethtown,
Bladen county on the 5th of April.
Reports from nearly all the Sub.Ali-
ances were. handed in. and delegates
reported from thirteen. Quite a lively
discussion sprung up on a motion to
adopt the charter granted the State
Alliance by our Legislature. All
were il favor of the charter, but
differed as to whether it was neces-
sary for us to adopt in order to get
the benefits of the same; but, to be
safe, decided. to adopt. The Alliance
ordered the Secretary to contribute all
the funds in its treasury to the State
Business Agency Fund, and also urged
each Surveillance to dolikewise. This
was doubtless the fruits of the
circular letter from the Executive
Committee. Now if this is done all
over the State by each Sub and County
Alliance there will be a nice little sum
added to the Fund, without which we
are unable to save, as other States are
doing for their members, where the
Agency is backed with a sufficient
fund. Baden County Alliance is
unable to do anything al yet in get.
ting up cooperative measures of any
kind. Quite a large number of farm.
ers have never joined the Alliance and
some are still prejudiced towards it,
We are hopeful and think it only a
ouestion of time with these outsiders.
who are eligible to membership.
When they learn that the Alliance has
come. to stay and to. be felt ass ''power
in, the land" they will come into the
fold. Fraternally,
E. N. robson.

BEAUFORT COUNTY.

Sixteen of the twenty Sub-Alliances
were represented at our County meet
ing and a lively, progressive spirit
was manifested all along the line. A
committee was appointed to confer
with our county physicians as to
charges for services. During the dis,
cussion of matters pertaining to the
good of the order, one of the brethren
stated that he had investigated the
subject and his conclusion was that
not less than $I50,90O worth of bag
had been shipped to our county and
sold chiefly to farmers during the past
year. The Alliance appointed O COM
mittee to prepare and publish to the
brethren of the county, an essay on
the raising of hay. THE PRoGREssIvE
FARMER hopes to be favored with a
copy-ED.)
When we first endeavored to make
a contract for purchasing goods for
members of the Alliance only one
merchant would contract with US. We
have since made terms with a second,
and at our last meeting two more
offered 10 make a contract with us but
as we had no cause to be dissatisfied
with our first arrangements we de-
cided to continue them fer the year.
1t was the general sentiment that the
Alliance had surpassed our most san
guined expectations and we left de-
termined to do better in future.
Fraternally
