August LIST.
We believe that we now have the
best contracts for many classes of
goods that we have ever had, and that
we will be able to offer to the brethren
almost every article they may want at
prices never before obtained. We will
give in addition to our usual list a dry
goods, notion. shoes, pants, etc., most
of which will be shipped out from Raj
eigh. Lot, numbers, descriptions and
prices will be given SO that no n need
make a mistake. The pants we quote
are manufactured in Raleigh, giving
our own people all the work. We have
40 different patterns to select from,

CURRENCY CONTRACTION.

The proposed bond issue win con.
tract the currency by nearly $50, OOO, 900
or half as much as is alleged caused
the panic of 1893. This is an impor-
tant point overlookedSby nearly every
one. This $50, 600, 900 is taken from
the money said to be in circulation and
locked up in the vaults of the treasury
out of use. In this caseit is absolutely
out of circulation and consequently
contracts the currency by this amount.
The bankers are not willing to loan
this money to go into general use on
farm mortgages at 6 to 8 per cent but
will loan it to the government at 3per
cent to be locked up away from the
people. This is a sample of American
finance, and yet the great bulk of the
people RI not aware Of the nature of
the difficulties which surround them.

We think we can be of service to them.
We again call upon the brethren to
place orders early for cane mills as the
time for using them is close at hand.
Two copies of the price list will be
mailed to the Secretary of each Sub
Alliance in good standing. One for
the use of Business Agent and the
other for the use of the Alliance.
This is fall price list. Many
goods will not change in price, during
the season, while others will fuctuate.
In order to inform you of these fuctua-
tions a list of corrected prices will be
sent out the first of each month, or as

THR NASHVILLE -PosrMAsTER.

Some weeks ago Mrs. Pattie AIRING
ton, of this city, received several postal
cards containing obscene writing and
printing. Some were mailed on the
train and bore no post mark. One
was mailed at a postofice that has
been discontinued, and the stamp of
that Office is in the possession of Buck
BOddie, postmaster at Nashville.
Several things caused him to be u.s.
pected. A postofhce inspector worked
up the case and arrested Boddie. The
case was tried in the Federal court in
this city last week. The jury DELHI
Grated five hours and concluded to &C.
quit him. Those who are well &C.
quainted with the case think he was
guilty of the charge. It was noticed
that B. 81. Bum didn't ask Mrs. Ar
rington any questions while she was
on the witness stand.

GIVE THE FARMER FACTS.

the average planter has but little use
br finely spun theory, whether it per
aims to the relation of his condition to
politics or whether it deals with the
pest ways and means Of growing the
pest crops. What he wants is facts.
No one has realized this more than the
peat seed firm Of D.. M. Ferry & Co.,
patrolt, Mich, who for forty years
ave been studying the wants and con-
ltlon of planters, large and small, and
{ a result have created the largest
ed business in the whole world.
Without doubt a strict adherence to
pc policy of dealing in facts represents
pc secret of their success. They know
lelr seeds are right before they are
mt to the many Thousand dealers from
nom the planter gets them. The
saler knows this to be a fact requiring
, further question, and the planter
nus 1t to be a substantial fact when
arVest time comes. Another illustra.
On OF the value of this method is
una L Ferry's Seed Annual, in which
lere ls nothing but facts. Facts that
rove OF the greatest value to every
anter; facts about how, when and
lere to plant, that can be had from
' oIner source. There are no worthy
Ce:s lett out, and no unwor by theories

DIRECTIONS
For Preparing, Packing and Shipping
Poultry for the Boston Market.

For Preparing, Packing and Shipping
Poultry for the Boston Market.
Killing and Dressing. Food in crop
Injuries the appearance, is liable to
sour, and purchasers object 30 paying
for this worse than useless weight;
therefore, keep from food twelve hours
before killing. All poultry, but more
especially turkeys, should be killed by
bleeding in the neck, and picked while
the body is warm; and in no case
should poultry be scalded; wet-picked
poultry is not wanted in this market,
and will not sell for what it is really
worth. AS soon as the poultry is
picked, take off the head at the throat,
strip the blood out of the neck, peel
back the skin a little, remove a portion
of the neck bone, then just before pack
ing, except in warm weather, draw the
skin over the end and tie and trim
neatly. Draw the intestines, making
the incision as small as possible, and
leave the gizzard, heart, etc. in. Pull
out the wing and tail feathers clean.
Undrawn poultry can be sold to a
limited extent when there is no other
to be had, provided there is no food in
the crop, or entrails, but as a rule has
to go at very low prices.
Packlng.-PoUltry should be entirely
cold, but not frozen, before being
packed. If packed with the animal
heat in, it will be almost sure to spoil.
Sort your poultry carefully, and have
the Nc. 1 stock of uniform quality.
Pack the No 2 stock in separate pack
ages. Ifyou have any old bull turkeys,
put them in a separate package or with
No. 2 stock. Line the boxes with clean
paper, but never use straw in packing
and wrap the birds in paper. Pack as
closely as possible, backs upward, legs
out straight, and see that the boxes IRE
go full that when the covers are nailed
on, there car be no possibility of the
contents shifting about. Boxes are
the best packages, and should contain
from 100 to 200 pounds. Larger boxes
are inconvenient to handle, and more
liable to get injured.

the farmer when shipping beef cattle
to only ship those in first class order
smoothe, w~ell-fattened stall fed cattle
and weighing 700 to 900 pounds. This
is the most desirable weight. There is
nothing that pays better than the extra
condition in which you can place your
cattle on the market. The market price
is low now, only % to 8 cts. lean ship
to Norfolk or Richmond, Va but very
little demand now and markets over
stocked. I wish also to say that our
brethren lose by sending very small
sized chickens to market. They
are hard to dispose of at q very
low price, while good, well grown
chickens are ready sale on a dull mar
ket at fair prices. Be ready for the
egg market which will open about the
1st of September next. Our Boston
house is anxious to handle eggs in car
load lots weekly. None but first class
eggs should be handled.

PATRoNIzR THE EGGExCHANGE
To SUB ALLIANCES:

To SUB ALLIANCES:
Arrangements have been made to
pay cash for all eggs shipped to us and
at prices that will pay the sender. So
far the Subs are sending in but few
eggs. If you wish this enterprise to
succeed, each one must put his shout
der to the wheel. Each week we state
prices for which we pay for the next
week. No risk provided you send dur
ing the week. The price offered is at
Last so per cent. higher than eggs are
sold for in the country precincts. Every
egg sent to this Exchange helps the
Business Agency fund, and gets our
people in the habit of selling for cash
If enough patronage is given we hope
to carry the handling of eggs through
next summer. Many of you asked for
this, a home market, where you could
get quick returns, but you are not pat
ronizing it. OF our if it will not be
to your advantage you should not pat
ronize it. We are paying Is cents per
dozen, cash, here and car safely guar
antee any Alliance 16 cents net for nice
fresh eggs, If eggs are nicely cleaned
can give ! cent more per dozen. Breth-
rem, wake up and ship your eggs to the
Exchange. Ship per freight.

THE ALLIANCE PRODUCE EX
CHANGE.

If our brethren will use the Produce
Exchange, Raleigh, N. c., for handling
their eggs, poultry. butter, hides, tai,
low, potatoes, cabbage, cotton, corn,
cattle, sheep, hogs, wheat, oats, buck
wheat and all farm products, we be-
lieve that they will be benefited. Write
what you want to sell, and information
will be given as o on as possible. Eggs
In this market are now worth from 123
to Is cents. Remember we have the
best egg market in NORTH Carolina, and
one of the largest buyers of eggs is
located here, and who is prepared to
handle from 8 to 5 car loads of eggs per
week. Butter, chickens, cabbage and
Irish potatoes in demand. Turkeys
will do better, possibly, November and
December.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
In your issue of the Goth you class
Mr.. Pearson, Congressman elect in this
district, as a Populist. In this you are
in error. MI. Pearson ran as an Inde-
pendent. Wanting Populist votes, he
did, during the canvass, throw them
some crumbs; but at the Republican
jolli6cation meeting in Asheville, just
after the election he publicly declared
himself a Republican and said he be-
lieved that party only could bring
peace and prosperity to the country.
To emphasize his statement, he was
wrapped in a Republican banner.

ADVERTISEMENT.
FOR CHIEF CLERK OF THE
SENATE.

1 hereby announce myself a candi-
date for the position of Chief Clerk of
the Senate of North Carolina, subject,
however, to the Cooperative caucus of
1895. I trust that my past legislative
and official duties have some merit,
and my political and clerical qualifica
tions are such as to commend me to
your consideration. If I should be the
caucus nominee, and then elected, l
shall endeavor to fill the position sought
in such a manner that you will not re-
greet the selection. l refer you to DR..
ThOmpson's testimonial below.
Respectfully, HILL KING.
HIGHLANDS, N. c., Nov. 80, "a.
To WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN:
1t gives me pleasure to state that l
am well acquainted with MI. Hill E
King, who seeks the position of Chief
Clerk In the next Senate of North Caro-
lima, having known him intimately for
many years. He has had some expert
ence in legislation, understands the
duties of the position, and possesses
first rate clerical qualifications. He
has rendered such service in two cam
paigns as should commend him to ia.
vorable consideration. In 1894 he has
done very satisfactory service, both as
Chairman of the POpulist Executive
Committee of Onslow county and as
Chairman of the Executive Committee
of the Third Congressional District.
