1t is HOW proposed to sell them by
weight, requiring the barrel to weigh
so much to make it a barrel. We thus
buy -four and pork. Oats, barley, rye,
corn, etc are sold by the pound in

A Bad Crowd.
News and Observer.

Referring to the item from THE Dur.
\ GLOBE about a crowd of thieves
camping neal Chapel Hill, we hope it
may turn out that they are the same
crowd that has been operating in the
western suburbs of Raleigh. Some time
ago we heard that a lot of men were
staying in the woods west of the city,
and We trust that this is the same gang
They ought TO have been %overhauled
while here; and if they are not the same
gang, the woods west OF here ought to
be secured now. There should be more
life and activity shown by those 10 whom
is committed the custody of this vicinity.
The series OF house breakings on our
suburbs should have stirred the proper
officers up 10 "a Jealous discharge of
their duties.

A Clever Parrot.

F. Y. Zeigler OF Columbus, Pa, has a
parrot named Dick that is considered
one of the family and is perhaps n OF
the most intelligent birds of its species
in the world. Dick always takes a hand
in household matters. If Mr.. Zeiglers
son does not get up in the morning at
the usual hour to go to the Office, the
parrot will say to the girl, Call Glenn"
and he will insist on his command being
obeyed. I~recalled on one occasion when
the family was earnestly discussing some
local event Dick broke in as follows:
Papa, do you love mammal Yes, of
course l do" replied Nj. Zeigler, when
the parrot blurted out, 'Oh, you old
fraud!-New York Telegram.

THE MARCH OF PROGRESS
IMPROVED METHODS FOR The MAN
UFACTURE OF BRICK.
How Brick Are Made These Days at the
Yard of Miller & Duke in the New
Town of North Durham.

Not many years ago the manufacturers
of auger machines were quite well salts.
fed with the results of their labors in
manufacturing and placing on the mar
ket a style of machine the principle of
which at this day stands without a peer.
1t is now in general use, and we can say
practical purposes a much better quality
of brick are being made to day with the
anger machines than on any other style.
Up to about ten years ago we were plod-
ding along ~contentedly on temporary
yards, doing work with horse and mule
that is now done by steam. This process
has gained favor until a vast majority of
the brick now made are made by this
process. The excellence of the stiff clay
brick is secured by the way it is'forced
through the forming die and being cut
off at the end.
The advantages of these brick are, first
They are smoother and more uniform in
size; the smoothness results from being
forced with great pressure through a
smooth, polished die; having but little
water they do not shrink much; their
s~moOthness enables the mason to make a
smooth and perfect wall they are strong
in resisting crushing strains and much
stronger in resisting the tendency to
crack by the settling of foundation Of
heavy building.
Our company abandoned the idea some
time ago that good brick could not be
made from the ordinary run of clay, if
taken direct from the bank and run
through a machine without the assistance
of a good pug mill to improve the quality
of brick and tile. Our company has in
vented a pug mill which has given the
most tlattering results. Although less
than three years since first introduced, it
has forced its way to popular favor
through merit alone.
If any reader of this should want to
know more of the workings of the Mich
igan brick and tile machine we would
be glad to show it at work at Miller &
Dukes yard, Durham, n. c., W. E. Mil
Ter, agent, or address Michigan Brick and
Tile Co., Morenci, Mich.
