the drinking water to tempt the COW
to drink more will also have the same
effect. If rich milk is desired at least
a fair proportion Of substantial food
should be given out of which'to make

cornmeal, a little oilcake meal and a
moderate supply of roots, along with
a bran mash, make a good winter diet
for a COW and will give richness to the
milk. Cows should have all the pure
water they will drink, and in winter
it is well to warm it for those giving
milk. Sailing them regularly should
not be neglected, otherwise the butter
will be long in coming,

THE LAW.

Mr., J. H. Mills, Superintendent of
the Thomasville Orphanage, has this
to say of our apprentice law:
l. The present apprentice law is
square-toed tyranny,
2. Under the present law appren-
tees are generally poorly fed, poorly
clothed, and seldom allowed to attend
even a free school. I know a widow
who will not allow her apprentice to
attend a free night school, after work
ing for her all day. .r
8. The apprentice law is so tyranni-
cal that very few besides orphans are
bound, and they do not learn trades.
Nearly all the trades here are carried
on by jacklegs.
4. A law for the voluntary binding
of youths to learn trades would be a
blessing. Boys are not willing to work
till twenty-one for six dollars and
clothes $50 and a Bible Us cents)-
1926. a<i
5. Boys should go to school and do
farm work till about sixteen years. old.
Then they can select a trade and learn
it in four or five years. They should
have a little money every month.
Having learned their trades, if able,
they should go to college. If not, let
them marry and go to work. On this
plan, the country would have, mechan,
les and our college boys would have
more humility and more practical
sense. Farmers could mend their own
implements. Apprentices have no
remedy if they are mistreated; they
would be punished for any appeal to
the Probate Judge. Usually, appren.
tees are run off on some frivolous &C.
cusation just before they reach twenty,
one. Three of my near neighbors were
a]pprenticed to farmers. They learned
farm work; but they never went a day
to school. They hate corn bread now,
because they ate it all the time of their
apprenticeship. They cannot read, and
we're never known to sing. But they
are sending their children to school

ALEXANDER COUNTY.
HIDDENITE, n. c., Jan. 6, '89.

H1DDENITE, N. c., Jan. 6, 80.
EDITOR FARMER:-We beg a short
space in your paper to inform your
readers what We are doing to promote
the Alliance in Alexander county.
We have been in working order but a
short time, as we were organized Nov.
10th, 1888, with only five Sub-Alli-
ances and about 100 members: We
now have a County Organizer in the
county, Bro. R. P. McLain, who is
fast working up the county, which is
ripe to the harvest. There were re-
ported on the 4th nine Sub-Alliances
in the county, with l54 members in
good standing. We also have a Bust
ness Agent who is now under bond,
(Bro. T. J. Sharpe, Hiddenite, n. c.
and has perfected arrangements with
one of our local merchants whereby
the members in the county will soon
reap a benefit financially. The infu-
ence of our Alliance has been felt
throughout the county, and we have
experienced some improvement men;
tally, morally and socially. We are
fighting to maintain the principles of
the Alliance and endeavoring to en-
large it's scope, fully recognizing the
fact, at least in our opinion, that the
ultimate success of our order is the
only hope for the future prosperity of
the agricultural classes, and that the
prosperity of our common country is
almost entirely dependent upon the
success of the former.
We have unanimously endorsed the
resolutions adopted by the North
Carolina Farmers State Alliance at
it's annual meeting in the city of Raj
eigh, August 10th, 1888, and recorded
on page II of the minutes of the
same. .3
We have passed resolutions asking
the Legislature to pass certain laws IN

NOTES FROM ROWAN COUNTY.
Rock, n. c., Jan. IS, '89.

Rock, n. c., Jan. IS, $50.
Col. l.. L.. PoLK.-DeGr ST.
herewith send you the demands of the
N. @. F. Alliance which it affords me-
pleasure to say were unanimously and
heartily approved and endorsed by
Rock Alliance, Nc. 500, at its meeting
on Saturday, the 18th inst. We GER
tainly need some wholesome legislation
all along on that line. It has been ru-
mored in this section that Ben Gratz,
the jute bagging man, has formed a
combine with the various "sand-bag"
guano companies to furnish sacks for
their use and to advance the price of
commercial sand in order to reimburse
him for the loss sustained by him in
the jute bagging trust. Should you
learn that such is the case, just sound
the alarm, and we are ready to take
our places in the front rank, nor quit
the field until the guano and jute bag
ging trusts shall slumber side by side
unhonored, unwept and unsung. l
trust that the brethren all over the
cotton belt will look after their inter
ests with vigilance and let nothing
impede their onward march to happi-
ness and prosperity. This section of
country (Rowan) is generally a good
Alliance section, only a few good but
doubling people r beyond its protec-
ton by remaining outside. The Pro
GREssIvE FARMER makes good Alliance
men, and inspires a feeling Of conf
dence wherever it is read, and con-
vinces everybody that It's zeal IN the
Alliance cause comes from a pure and
earnest desire to benefit and bless the
laboring masses of North Carolina.
Let the beacon light blaze forth to
the world, and we trust that the time
is not far distant when the farmers
of this our grand old Union may
joyfully exclaim, the Alliance leads
the world

HOW TO HAVE RICH, GOOD MILK

The richness and good quality of
milk do not depend wholly on the
dairy breeds, but r also largely in
fuenced by the care given to the ami
mails and the feed provided for them.
If one wants all the milk that can be
got from a cow without any reference
to it's quality, then juicy grass, green
corn fodder, brewers grains, turnips
or other roots that havefa large pro.
portion of water, warn mashes and
sloppy food in general will produce it.

tionably produce more milk than a

FALLING CREEK ALLIANCE, No. 445,
Wavne Go. N. G.. Jan 3 go

wayne TO-, IN. ", jan. 5, so.
Col. L. L. PoLK.-Dear SI:-We
have changed our meeting from semi
monthly to once a month. We see the
Alliance work is fast opening the eyes
of all laboring classes Of people, and
we trust it is for their good. We have
squelched the bagging trust and have
that to think about no more.
Here is something we must study
about before we make successful and
praiseworthy farmers, and that is, we
must raise support at home. Let
me implore you brother farmers to &C
cept a few thoughts from me. I ear
nestly desire that you will try them at
once, because it will do you good.
The old year has died away in pleas
ant dreams, the new brings US further
away from our childhood and rests us
nearer the verge Of the grave. Have
we wasted our money and time on the
desert air, OF have we put it to an
economical and proper use7 If not,
it is time for US to wake up. We see
the mistake we made in the past and
let this be a lesson for us in the future.
This is what I want to say: We have
been raising cotton and almost nothing
else, and the o cotton we raise the
further in debt we go. Now, brethren,
as the golden sun of Heaven pQurs
down it's refulgent rays of light more
brightly in this newborn year than
aver in the past, let us do something
more than we have done before, and
that is, let US raise nor corn and pork
in 1889 than we raised in 1888. That's
what I would like for us all to take
into consideration. We can live on
corn and meat, but we cannot live on
cotton, for we have well tried that;
and there is no chance Of making our
condition worse than it is already.
One-half of our farmers do not make
enough meat to trace the grease in
their smoke-house, and not enough
corn to keep the mice fat. This is one
kind of farming and the kind that has
driven US almost into starvation.
Now, brethren, we have neglected
doing our duty in the past. There is
no Alliance or union Of any kind in
the world that will feed and clothe us
as well as a union on raising corn,
meat and -four. We must do this or
we are forever gone. IT can make
more clear money on raising cotton
than [ can on raising corn" This
very man will come to a man who
raises corn about the first of April and
say, "Mr., please let me have a few bar
rels of your corn-but-but-I can't
pay you until next fall"-talk about
your clear money on cotton. The
Devil is lose in this country again.

heart throbs only in a pool Of cold
blood toward humanity, burned our

THE STOCK LAW.

. The following resolutions we're
adopted by Little River Alliance, No.
4O7, on January 18th: r.. r..
WHEREAS, The present stock law
of Little River and Marks Creek
townships, east of Marks Greek, in
Wake county, is a curse upon us on
account of our poor pasture lands and
the scarcity Of water, and whereas,
there is an abundance of timber with
which to fence farms; therefore
Resol0ed, That each of US aid and
assist in getting up a petition, in the
above mentioned territory, asking the
Legislature of North Carolina to give
us a vote on the stock law in said
bounds.
ResotUed, That this resolution be
sent to The PROGRESSIVE FARMER for
publication, in order that those within
the bounds who favor the stock law
cannot say we are doing anything in
secret, as was the case when the law
was put upon us.
F~raternally,

The Address of President E. B.
Kearns to Randolph County Ali
ance, held at Shiloh, Jan. 4th, '89.
My BRETHREN.-Our County ALI
ance is in many respects an independ-
ent body, and while we expect to
realize much help from the State ALI
ance, let us remember hat the greater
part of the work is ours. There are
no restrictions in the Constitution to
prevent US from moving forward in
business affairs for the best interest of
our people.
Our interests are varied-some raise
cotton, others raise tobacco, wheat,
corn, cattle, &c.
We are here to-day to freely confer
with each other as to what will best
promote the interests of all. [ am re-
joiced to see such a full attendance in
our meeting. It evinces in you a
commendable readiness to do your
part in this great work. Although in
the estimation Of many, we have made
rather slow progress, you will remem
Der that to most of US, it has been new
work. We have tried to use the
proper caution in every step taken,
and yet doubtless, we have made some
mistakes. Many have expected vast
results too soon, supposing they had
entered an Eden, where nothing is re-
quired but to reap the golden fruit
from the trees of the garden. But to-
day we see that there is a wonderful
field of labor before US; but the har-
vest is not yet-now is only seed time.
Our aim should be to gain something
from the experience Of each one, how
ever small that may be. To enlarge
our plans, to rekindle our zeal and
thoroughly prepare for grander re-
suits.
Apart from the regular business re-
CURED by the Constitution, it seems to
me, that a short and concise report
should be made from each Sub-Alli.
ance in the county, as to what progress
they are making in the various fields
of vi work. This may be a little
tedious, but will no doubt be interest
ing and profitable to all. Also there
are quite a number of resolutions that
ought to be brought before this meet
ing, and we hope that all who desire
to introduce resolutions will remember
that they must be written. Have
them ready, brethren, so that there
will be no delay, as our time is limited
to a few hours. We hope that the
brethren will feel that this is a farm.

therefore throw aside all embarrassing

bers the necessity of mental improve
