The Farmers viii. Lead.

(3outhern Farmer.)
There never was since North Car
olina became a State, that such an
interest was manifested in agricult-
ure as is being done to-day, not
only by the farmers themselves, bat
by al classes of our citizens. This
is due to several causes, but mainly
through organization. That this ele-
ment of society is rapidly coming to
the front, no man ofintelligence who
is not governed by prejudice can
deny. There is more acting, more
thinking, more investigation and
more everything being done by this
class to-day, than was ever known
in this worlds history before. The
day has gone, and gone forever, when
the farmer will be deprived of the
political social and all other ad.
Vantages that the rest of humanity
enjoy. In the future, instead OF
MS being led, he will lead, especially
in all those economic questions that
concern his peace and prosperity

dawn upon this country, then will
there be unbounded prosperity and

WE NEED BETTER

CAROLINA.
WORTH CONSIDERING.

heGreenvllleRefLect0r Of last week
made some very timely observations
on our educational interests in East
ern Carolina. 1t says:
The educational progress OF North
Carolina for the last decade has been
very satisfactory, viewed as a whole,
but viewed with regard to sections
the eastern counties have fallen far
behind the western Perhaps one
explanation of this is that the eff
feCts Of bad crops for the last few
years have not been so sOrelY felt ID
the west as in the east, and the peo-
pie have not been in such stringent
circumstances. But we think q faE
greater reason is the indifference Of
our eastern people in tue matter Of
education. From a careful review
of the catalogues Of our Colleges
and University 1t will be seen that
the eastern counties Of Carolina do
not keep pace with the western in
the number OF students. While this
IS the case with regard to the I'm
iver8ity and the three leading Col
leges OF our State, there are several
other Colleges Of lower grade which
draw their patronage almost exclu-
sively from the western counties.
The academies of the west are not
only more numerous. but they also
receive much larger patronage.
X
Go to most any OF tue larger towns
Of West North Carohns, and among
the prominent buildings you Will ace
the school buildings. Wherever the
population is large enough they have
well regulated Graded School, and
where tie population Is not 0ufficient
they have good academies, and they
unite and support these academies

or more schools like we are in the

them a liberal patronage, and keep
them open at least eight months, and
the most of them ten months during

As q North Carollnian we take
great pride in the intellectual growth
OF our State, and we earnestly desire
to see the day when the east shall
take its stand beside the west 10
educational as well as in other mat
ters, and march on to the great
development TO which we believe our
State is destined. We see no good
excuse for this intellectual lethargy
among our people. Our fields are
as productive, and our resources are
as good as those of the west. While
