Saving Ashes.

In any section Of the country where wood
is used for fuel it will pay farmers well to
save ashes for making soap. The value of
ashes has now become so well known that
there are but few persons SO wasteful as to
throw them away. Persons who do not want
them for soap should by all means use them
as fertilizers, in addition to their value of
making domestic soap they are worth good
deal to spread on the land after the potash
has been extracted. They are especially val
liable for orchards and useful on close, clayey
soils. Where they are wanted for lye a cheap
leach is easily constructed, or the ashes -
be put into a receiver. The ashes

Buying Garden Seeds.

DNJ ihS Val utu 1ttus.
In buying garden seed get the freshest
and well-tried varieties. High-priced novel;
ties look very pretty on paper but they rare
" meet expectations. With high cultivation,
heavy manuring, good soil, and constant irri-
tation with manure and guano water. even a
poor variety of vegetables will show up hand
soInely. Ordinary cultivation is of little
worth. Of the fifty or more varieties of peas
less than dozen kinds are worth growing
For market purposes, to make money out of
the crop, We find about four desirable kinds.
The same may be said ofother vegetable seeds.
The advice Of good practical gardener in
buying seeds will usually be found trust
worthy. They will always advise YOU to
purchase from those who handle reliable
seeds.-Ex.

The suggestion to bring the
North Atlantic squadron, including
the war ships Philadelphia, Boston
aud Atlanta, to Annapolis to partic-
ipate in the exercises incident to
graduation day, is good one and
should be encouraged by the Naval
authorities. The Academy is the
alma mater of paval officers, and
every dignity possible should be
conferred upon the graduation eK-
ercises. The school is situated cob
venientlY to noble body of water
on which the ships may be maneu-
vered, while the officers would be
interested IN the reunion on familiar
ground. Every year the Naval Acad-
envy is becoming more and more
important to the navy and to the
people of the United States. 1t has
long enjoyed the reputation Of be-
ing one of the best scientific schools
in theworld, and it would be simply
a natural and proper thing for fleets
of our war.ships occasionally to
rendezvous here. 1t is the seat of
military education, and should have
all the Importance possible thrown
around il.

IN a speech made by him some years
ago; first urged upon the farmers of

bines and labor organizations were
forming all over the country for
self protection, the farmer and ag-
riculturist of the State were stand.
inc by with folded arms. 1t was
time, be thought, that these tillers
of the soil were coming together for
one common good--the protection
of their rights. Mr.. Brown little
thought then, when he was so en-
thusiastic for the farmers interest,
that they would be as formidable as
they are to day, or that he would be
a gubsrnatorial candidate for their
suffrages. Mr.. Brown is one of the
largest stock raisers in Carroll coun-
ty, and has one of the most perfect

PROSPEROUS KNITTING MILLS.
Small Industries Pay the Largest
Dividends.

The knitting mills at Tarboro,
Scotland Neck, Oxford and else
where are over run with orders and
are making money right along. Here
is an industry which requires but
little capital, pays we'll and is OF
value to community because it fur
nishes employment and brings
money into a place. This is but one
of hundreds of small industries
which can be established in Southern
towns and by which their prosperity
be greatly promoted.-Rocky Mount

We are glad to learn that knit
ting mill will be started in our neigh
boring town Of Warsaw. Such a
mill would pay much better than
merchandising here and take less
capital. A half dozen small IN
dustries is what our town needs.
Such enterprises would turn money
over fast. One dollar that will go
through ten hands in a day is worth
more to a community than ten dol
lars that changes hands only once

be hundred per cent. better off il
