WAile we have not enjoyed, for

of prosperity, we yet have reason
to feel that orr Universities, which
have be,n shared by the people OF

unmixed with much for VIII eli we
should feel deeply thankful.
Although devastating storms
and fire have visited other por-
lions of our country, bringing
great suffering, together with loss
If property and human life, we
have been spared these terrible
aflictions, and have learned that
thcr' sometimes comes TO the
children of men worse things than
the interruption OF prosperity.
The healthfulnass OF our State

lie more and more, each year, sought
as an asylum by the afflicted of

The faith aud courage of oul

No experiments that we know Of
have been made in this latitude in the
artificial culture of Gran berries. They
are indigenous to the high valleys of
our northwestern counties, butt their
success in the lower part of the state is
problematio. The prepare ion of bog
for cranberry culture is an expensive
matter, more 50 in fact than for rice
culture. The land must be thoroughly
ditched so as to drain, and must be at
the same time diked, so that it can be
overtiowed artiticially, whom needed,
and protected from overflow at all other
times, All bushes and all the grass
sod must be cut off and removed, and
the surface covered with saad. Cuttings
of the vines, made by running them
through feed cutter. are planted in
drills and kept well cleaned from all
wild growth until they cover the land
after which they take care of them
selves, excerpts as to overlooking and

Advanced Monthly Summary of Meteoro-
logical Reports for North Carolina,
March. 1894.

The North Carolina State Weather
Service issues the following advanced
summary of the weather FOR March,
1894. as compared with the correspond
ing month of previous years:
The past winter has been a mild one
in North Carolina. The month of Jan
uary was three degrees above the nor
NAL in tempera ture, and February only
half degree below. The rainfall was
deficient in January and March, and
about half an inch above the normal in
Abruery. The conditions were gene
rally favorable for farm work. The
weather during March was very unfor-
tunate for agricultural interests. From
the LIST to the 10Th the temperature
averaged twelve degrees per day above
the normal, reaching on the 22nd
maximum of 81 degrees at Southern
Pines, and 50 at many other places;
temperatures SO high were never before
recorded in North Carolina during
March. Vegetation was pushed from
two to three weeks in advance of sea-
son. The severe freeze of March eth,
and 2sth, consequently did enormous
damage everywhere. Undoubtedly the
peach crop is ruined, but there will be
a small yield of other fruits. especially
apples. Grapes also were badly dam
aged, but win grow out again, produc-
ing something like half crop. A good
many straw berries were saved by COW
ering, as were also some potatoes in the

EDITOR The CAUCASIAN:
have plan to secure fair cleo
ton in North Carolina under her
present election laws, viz:
First-That each township be
thoroughly organized into People,
party clubs, and to keep a
strict roll Of all members with their
full name rightly recorded and a
few days before the registration book
is closed let the secretary or some com
petent member of each club take his
roll and compare it with the regis
trar'S book and should he find any
member of his roll not correctly
registered, or not registered at all,
to see such member and have him
register correctly.
SccOnd-That at the last club
meetings of the township, after hay
ing gone through with the general
business of the clnb let there be a
final roll call and new roll made
of the members, who are voters, and
who will pledge themselves to sup
port with their ballots the Populist
nominees.

Your plants suffer from the bacterial
disease known as southern Blight ''
which is the great draw back to tomato
culture in all Eastern North Carolina.
It IS the same disease that effects the
Irish potato. IA near relative of the to-
matO. II also attacks vatermelOns to
some extent The first sign OF it to
an ordinary observer IS the sudden
willing of the whole plant, usually af-
ter il has developed to a good size. But
before il reaches this stage watery
spots can be found on leaves and stem,
that under the microscope are found to
be swarming with bacteria. If one of
the wilted plants is cut off YOU can see
with the naked eve that the growing
tissue under the epidermis or bark is
brown and dead. We viii experiment
with spraying mixtures to prevent It
this season and hope for good results
Tomatoes are more liza bic to ii than
Irish potatoes. and potatoes alongside
Of tomatoes will be affected more than
those removed from the tomatoes. II
is recommended to spray with bordeaux
mixture from very young state of L .
plants in the seed bed until they are in
full bloom, about three times. We
would advise making the Bordeaux
mixture weak, at least for first spray
say so gallons of water. For potatoes,
spray the potatoes before planting, as
soon as up, and again when in bloom.
When d tomato plant shows signs of
the disease pull it up and burn it at
once. Avoid planting where these
plants grew the year before.

Dehorring Cattle or Calves.

This is humane practice wherever
a number of animals are to be kept to-
gether. There is always more or less
friction between different animals and
the stronger are inclined to crowd and
hook the weak or fight among them
selves for the mastery. Dehorning not
only checks this in part, but it prevents
personal harm being done to some ami
mails, while it frees the majority from
the fear of the master animals in the
herd.
We have successfully used the de-
horning clipper made by the Leavitt
Mfg Co, Hammond, Ill. This is safe,
rapid method. and for adult animals no
one wants more rapid way of remov-
ing horns. No harm results to the ami
NAL. We have taken off horns during
warm weather and in early winter with
uniformly good results. No applica-
ton after removing the horns in needed,
though if in warm weather and there
is fear of flies, little carbolic acid NAV
be Sprinkled over the stub and surround
ing hair to keep them away by its strong
smell.
If it is desired to prevent horns grow.
ing in young animals. hair can be clip
ped from the point where the horn is
about to appear, and the horn stopped
by the use of little caustic potash.
Take dry stick of potash and touch to
water, then rub on the little protuber-
ance where the horn is coming. Re-
peat few times and the horn is killed.
1t has been known and recommended In
bulletins and the public press for some
t me and belongs to the people if there
is any value it Recently we have been
EN- Joined from using or spreading this

First apply the Nitrate 1-e at two
dressings as soon as growth e.
gins; second when fruit is setting.
Second. Always apply in dry wealth
sr when the foliage is dry, never in wet
weather.
Third If the leaves are wet with
rain or dew it will burn them if applied
directly. Best plan is to scatter it on
both sides Of the row. 1t dissolves at
