night to warn the residents of the Platte
river bottoms to seek higher ground The
river had been steadily rising at the rate of

at that hour IL was outside its banks until
the water was backed up TO the Rio Grande

GENERAL POLITICAL NEWS.

Mr.. f. w. Frasiers, at n time can
didate for Lieutenant Governor of
Kansas On the Democratic ticket, and
Mr.. T. F. Bond, a prominent Republi-
can lawyer, are recent converts to the
Populist ranks in that State. ,
The members of the recent conven-
ton of the American Railway Union,
held at Chicago, voted to support the
Peoples party almost unanimously.
Nearly all the organized American
workmen are taking the same course.
The Union numbers nearly 600, 900 men
and has strong influence.
The Peoples party made a gain of
131 per cent. in the recent Oregon
election, and did it without a campaign
fund or speakers.
The Woodbury., Ca, Messenger, a
strong Democratic paper, has joined
the Peoples party because it is more
Democratic than the old party.
The Kansas Democrat, one of the
prominent papers of Kansas, will afili-
ate with the Peoples party hereafter.

WHILE WILLING WORKERS WIN,
LAZY LOAFERS LOSE,

Who has ears to hear, eyes to see,
hands to work, tongues to talk or feet
to walk, let him be up and using all
these instruments now. No time to
waste. Much at stake. Working be-
fore winning. To enjoy the fruits of
labor effort must be crowned with sue
cess; to insure success effort must be
wisely directed. Effort on the part of
the friends of reform in North Carolina
cannot be more wisely and b~enefcially
expended than in securing subscribers
for The PROGRESSIVE FARMER. Brother,
you know this, and you should never
let an opportunity pass unimproved.
1t will pay your neighbor, it will pay
the friends of the cause. 1t will pay
you not only in the satisfaction of duty
performed, but also insures an extern
tension of your time three months for
every new 81 subscriber you send in
before August 18th. How can you let
this opportunity pass9

STAND FIRM.

There is nc better possible way for
our subscribers and readers to insure
the success of the Alliance and reform
cause than by seeing to it that reform
literature finds it's way into the homes
OF our people. Nearly every family
takes some paper. Many papers be-
cause cheap, find their way into these
homes. Let Jul readers in North Caro-
lima see to it as far as possible that
The PROGRESSIVE FARMER takes the
place of these poisoned arrows of
plutocracy, and our side of the ques-
ton plainly and honestly put before
them by getting this paper into every
home.
Every sender of a club of five one
year subscribers at $1.OO each will re-
ceive the paper free one year. Every
paid up subscriber who sends in four
new subscribers at $1.OO each before
August Is, will receive the paper one
year free. We ought to enter 5000
new names on this proposition before
August the 18th.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1894-07-10
IMPORTANT NOTICE.

l desire to call the attention of the
members of the Alliance who have
still, notes and unpaid accounts for fer
%tilizer, to the fact that the Durham
Fertilizer Company have been ex-
tremely lenient with them during the
financial depression, and. have waited
on the Alliance people and have car
ried their notes and accounts In a time
when it was extremely incOnvenient to
them, and caused them many hard
ships, but they did this with the pur-
pose of protecting and helping the ALI
ance brethren when they sorely needed
this help. Brethren, you now have
your crops on hand, and while these
products may be very low, you owe it
to yourselves, to your Alliance and to
the company, to pay at once all that ls
due for fertilizer. Let me beg you and
insist that you will at once send to the
company any sums that you may be
due them. They must have this money
to furnish usfertilizer again this spring,
and a payment to them now means a
credit to you again in the spring. So
do not delay another day, but send the
money to them at once. This is i'm
portant and must be attended to at
once.
We are going to furnish you the same
high grade goods that we have done
heretofore, and do all we can to accom-
modate you this year, but to get this
favor you must pay up what you owe,
Fertilizers are ready for shipment
now for the spring trade, and you can
send in your order.

THE ALLIANCE PRODUCE EX
CHANGE.

DEAR BRETHREN The alliance Pro
duce Exchange" is open for the hand
ling of farm products. We do not
purchase your products but will sell
for you to the best advantage possible.
Write us what you have to sell and
will let you know about what we can
get for it. Eggs are higher here than
in New York and we have been getting
better prices. Think we will be able
to handle more and more as our plans
for putting only fresh eggs on market
become known. Poultry is in great
demand and we think for the next
three months if not all the summer it
will bring remunerative prices. Can
furnish shipping coops and simply
charge rent or sell them to you if de-
sired. We can handle bacon, lard,
fish, wheat, -four, corn, meal, potatoes,
&c. Prices are lower on all products
than they have been for years. We
have sent notice to all of our shippers
not to send any more eggs North for
the present as it does not pay. There
were more than 20, 900, 900 eggs sent
into New York last week. We will
try to handle all poultry and eggs
shipped here to your advantage. Do
not send eggs by express unless rates
are very low.

BRO. MARSHALL GoRs TO GRASS.

The Gastona Gazette jumps on US for
asking some of our best farmer readers
to answer a question in regard to
orchard grass culture. We profess to
know more about farming and every
thing else than the postma ster- editor
Of Gastonia, but not more about farm
ing than some Of our subscribers. If
that were not true, the question asked
by the Randolph subscriber would
clear US of any unusual effort to throw
the responsibility on somebody else.
The writer of the question about
orchard grass simply asked us to give
space for the question. We,did so and
asked some progressive farmer to give
an answer. The Gazette man ought to
plunge his head in cold water now and
then.
