the hay or straw, if well cured, will
about pay for all the work on the crop
and leave the seed as a net gain.
There are chances of failure from
drOuth and insects in the fall IF these
are safely passed the land should be
moderately rich for good results.
Should clover fail, rye may be sown
and will pay well, but is not nearly so
profitable as the clover.
If our readers wish to try this seed,
it would be better to use more land
than the small plats and have crop
enough worth handling. The use of
rye to replace the clover in case 1t be-
comes necessary, will insure a return
equal to the cost of the effort to get a
double crop from the land

To Hon. s. B. Alexander, Dear SIR
In view of the depression in all in
dustries, caused by the stringency in
money matters, our Alliance, No 971,
Pender county, N. O., do unanimously
resolve to instruct and petition that
you will not vote for the repeal of the
Sherman silver law until there is a
substitute passed by both houses of
Congress and becomes a law that we
shall have free and unlimited coinage
Of silver at the ratio of Is to 1.
Resolved further, that copy of this
resolution be sent to THE PROGRESSIVE

EDITORIAL SUGGESTIONS.

Hillside terraces are the hope OF the
farmers in the hiIly land Of the South.
They occupy. no space, do not give
way, if made right, and save the land.
Let every farmer in the hill country
adops this system.
The farm-rs are told to economic,
but the railroads are not told that they
should reduce freight and passenger
rates, nor the bankers that they ought
to reduce interest. Oh, no. The farmer
must do ell the econ0miziug.
Many agricultural writer's spend
their force in trying to learn farmers
how to get rid OF nOxious weeds and
insects. How to get out Of debt and
get better prices for his crops is what
the average farmer wants to know.
The agricultural editor who sits in
his Office the year round telling farm
ers how to raise more por acre, and
how to DO this and that, is probably
the greatest numbskull on TIE CONT
nen5. The farmer knows more about
farming than any three Of these editors.

amount SO far withdrawn by any of
our members from the agency, We
had the best. meeting sine July, 1892.
Among other matters of Importance a

the repeal Of the sherman bill unless
the free coinage Of silver is substituted.
Samuel Archer, editor Of the ReUo-
IttjOn, was with US the second day and
made US a public speech Of about two
hours length. This speech was listened
to by men Of several polite Il faiths.
Bro. Archer dwelt mainly On finance,
but touched upon transportation as
occasion demanded. He is an easy
speaker and an elegant writer, as is
proven by the editorials in his paper.

CHATHAu COUNTY OFFICERS

Mr.. EDITOR:-An editorial ii the
Chatham Record and copied in the
Nslrs- Observer Chronicle, makes the
false assertion that R4v. q. H Perry
was the only one Of the old officers Of
the Chatham County Alliance who
voted the Democratic ticket last No
vember and for that reason be was not
re elected Chaplain at the last meeting
The editor either published an inten
tional talsehood Or has been misin
formed, There was an officer re elected
who voted the Democratic ticket at the
last eI, ctiOn, of W which the editor OF the
HccOTd could not have been jgnOrant
since they both voted at the same pre-
cinct, but because he is a man IL hum
BILE circumstances I suppose he is con
sidered nobody. It has been the Gus
tom in this county to elect new man
for Chaplain every year. No man has
ever been elected Chaplain for two
consecutive years. But suppose the
main season that Mr.. Perry was not
re elected was because he had not at
tended a single meeting Of the County
Alliance since his election. The article
referred to further says eve did not
before know that they would not even
hear a Democrat pray for them.' The
truth is, we like to have prayers oftener
than once a year.
How does the editor of the Record
know that Mr.. Perry was not re elected
for the reason stated by him? As an
evidence that it was not On account of
his politics, I will state that ne was
placed on one Of the most important
committees, one that has a great deal
more influence in controlling the action
of the Alliance than the Chaplain.
Editors who obtain their information
from men who have crept into the Al
lance and have taken a solemn oath
not to reveal its secrets, and who can
scarcely wait to get Gu. Of the meeting
to tell the enemy all they have learned
I say editors who get their informa-
ton from such traitors, wolves in

to find that they have been mfsin-
formed. There seems to be a disposi-
ton among the editors who oppose our
demands to publish anything detri-
mental to the Alliance even if they be
Iieve it to be untrue. I see several such
papers, and | notice every thing detri-
mental to the reform cause is copied
by all of them.
This is written merely to correct the
false statements referred to, lest some
one should be misled.
am glad to inform you that the Al
lance in this county is in a fOurishing
condition; that several Sub Alliances
have re. organized and were represented
at the late county meeting.

HARVESTING THE CORN CROP.

There is a serious loss in harvesting
corn in the usual way Of pulling fodder
and plucking the ears. Some recent
Experiment Station work serves to
bring this out in relief. Mr.. H. J.
Patterson, Of the Maryland Station,
publishes some matter showing the
location Of the dry matter Of the corn
plant in three crops examined. Co.
effcients of digestibility are given
with composition and total digestible
product Of ears, topped fodder, blades,
husks, and stubble. The results show
the ears and blades to have been only
So SO per cent. Of the dry matter of the
crop. Theother parts usually neglected
by cur farmers consequently amount
to 49.41 per cent, or at least one half.
OF the. digestiole matter, 55.O8 per
cent. only was contained in ears and
blades. Thus nearly 45 per cent. of
the digegtibIe matter of the crop would
be lost by taking only ears and blades
from the field.
The digesti6ility of coarse folders
rich in carbohydrates is greatly in
creased by feeding with highly nitro
genous materials, such as cotton seed
neal. So it would be possible for one
to get almost as much digestible food
out Of the corn stalk left to rot in the
field than is saved from the crop in
ears and pulled fodder.
The simplest way to get the most
food out of the corn crop is to cut close
to the ground with short handled hoes
at about the time the fodder would be
pulled and cure in a silo Lacking the
silo, cut the corn in the same way a
few days later, about the time fodder
is generally pulled, and shock in the
field. Put 400 to 900 pounds in a shock
and stand the butts out open enough to
make the shock stand firm and let in
the air to dry the corn. Bind the tops
tight to hold together and keep out
rain.
When cured, shock out the ears, and
cut what is left known as stover (the
stalks, blades and shucks) into inch
lengths. Feed to COWS or work teams
with cotton seed meal, wheat bran or
such other nitrogenous materials as
can be most readily obtained. For
nearly balanced ration, feed one pound
of meal to four Of stover and two Of
oat straw. The stover alone fed freely
will support an animal at rest and
not giving milk. +. E. EMERY,

Owing to exhaustion of our supply Of

This amount will be sufficient for one
tenth of an acre. The later correspond
ents are being supplied with two
pounds of cleaned seed, which will SOW
the same area, one tenth Of an acre.
The numerous calls for seed received
in reply to the circular letter proves
our farmers to be alive to the need Of
renovating crops which like this clover
can be grown between summer crops.
This clover, if grown for seed, will
leave the land in good condition for
