FARMVILLE n. @.
Farmville Alliance is very anxious
that the shoe factory shall be a success.
We did not favor returning the money
to the original contributors in the shape
Of Due Bills and cheerfuIly return the
same. We also have added thereto
ten dollars. We now have hundred
and forty-five dollars invested in the
factory and we urge the other Sub.
Alliances to follow u example.
Brethren, at your next meeting, en-,

fail. If it should I very much fear it
would still weaken the very best or
ganization that the farmers have ever
had in North Carolina.
We also think that our executive
committee made a mistake in sending
out lecturers before the scrip was
finally completed. Each one of the
lecturers might haveraised at least one

back with them and the shoes might
have been made and delivered long
ago. We want our shoes for the win

Let our committee adopt the motto OF
David Crockett: BE sure you are right,
then go ahead.
Let them run the factory upon bust,
ness principles and be sure to make
nothing but good shoes of the kind
they pretend to make. Trusting that
the Alliance, generally, may realize the
Importance of this enterprise and that
they will accept Bro. Ivy's proposition
and that the factory may soon be turn
ing out 200 pairs Of shoes per day, and
that the Alliance cause may take on
new life and grow as it has not grown
in several years, and that our organ,
THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER, may he able
to maintain its present standard. We
hardly know howl it could be improved.
We leave for the present this matter
with the conscience of the brethren.

HORTICULTURF
VERY IMPORTANT.

correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
We are obliged to chronicle the ad-
vent of the dreaded and destructive
pest of fruit trees, the San Jose scale,
which has been now reported from two
localities in North Carolina. 1t at
tacks chiefy the pear, peach, plum and
annie. The original home or this pest
Is California, whence it YVES brought
and widely disseminated throughout
the Atlantic States by two New Jersey
nurseries,. Just how widespread this
pest is within our State we do not yet
know. but all trees of the above named
species received from New Jersey
growers during the last six years should
be regarded as suspicious and should
be thoroughly examined for presence
of the scale. The scale appears on the
stem and young twigs as rough, gray
isb speckg much resembling ashes. A
closer inspection at this season will
show smaller yellowish specks moving
about. The latter are the larvae or
young of the scale.
Please examine your own trees and
ask your neighbors to examine theirs
and mail to the station specimens OF
twig showing anything resembling
scale insects. A bulletin will be Issued
soon after October tst giving treatment
for these insects.
Very respectfully,
GERALD MCCARTHY, Entomologist.

LIVE STOCK.
SCOTCH ENGLAND SHEEP.

In referring to this comparatively
little known breed in this country, the
Country Gentleman says:
The sheep are plastic under GOOD
management, and it may be easily sup.
posed that an experienced shepherd
might SO manage these sheep as to &C
climate this breed, in time, even to the
very different life on a prairie.
1t is essentially a mutton sheep, but
even this is the result of its mountain
life and the nature Of the pasture.
It's wool is very coarse and is used for
carpet manufacture. Some Of it is i'm
ported into this country, where it sells
at a very low price.
It's mutton, however, is ~UneXcelled
in quality, and is sold at the highest
prices in the London markets, to which
the fatted sheep, fed on roots on Eng
lish farms very often are sent for sale
The carcass is what we call small,
weighing II or IS pounds a quarter
when finished at three years old.
The young lambs are considered to
excel all others in the fine flavor and
tenderness of the meat. Thus, it is a
small sheep, but yet it might meet a
demand for light ~carcasses here, if it
could be acclimated.
The fleece is coarse, loose and shaggy,
and weighs not far from four pounds
either way for the ewes, and six to
seven for the rams.
The face and legs are black or mot
tied and covered with smooth hair,
quite free from wool.
The nose is prominent and arched,
but not so much so as the Cheviot,
which most nearly resembles in figure
this sheep, but is somewhat larger.
The rams horns are large and set
low, resembling those OF the Merino,
making one Dr. two spirals, as the age
may be.
The ewes horns are small, short,
thin, fattened, and not spiral, but only
half bent forwards and down wards.
The back is broad all the way from
the shoulder to the rump, and the tail
is naturally short and is never locked.
1t is not uncommon for the tails to be
free of wool, or, as it is termed by the
shepherds, whip tailed.
These sheep are exceedingly active.
as might be supposed from their noun
tain life; but how they might succeed
in our warm climate and on an ordi
nary pasture and under close control
is a matter f r experiment, which mus
be said to be a very uncertain affair.
We have never seen or heard of 6

THE TAPEWORMs OF POULTRY

The Bureau of Animal Industry has
issued bulletin No. -, treating Of the
tapewOrms Of poultry. The subject is
a very important one, both from prac
tical and scientific points of view. Our
knowledge of the parasites OF poultry
is in a very unsatisfactory condition,
and contributions to it are SO fcattered
through the literature of the world that
they are not available to the greater
part of those engaged in the investiga-
tion of this and allied subjects.
This volume Of So pages contains: %
A general discussion; life history and
source Of infection; the relation Of the
tapeworms Of wild birds to those Of
domesticated fowls; symptoms and
pathology tapeworm-infected fowls as
food; prevention and treatment; o. A
classification into families and genera
with technical description; 81 Chart of
parasites, arranged according to their
hosts. With explanation of chart; 4)
Two hundred and seventy six figures
on twenty-one plates, with a descrip
ton Of same; % Index to scientific
names; -(6) photography of the tape

CORN AND GRASS PIGS.

We have heard some very successful
breeders say they want no better feed
| for growing pigs than good corn, says
L. n. Bonham, in The Breeders Ca
! zette. Visiting some of these breeders
whose sheet anchor is sound corn, we
invariably find their pigs in fine con-
ditiOD, fat enough TO show or go to the
block. It is worthy of notice here, too,
that they expect to have ali these pigs
sold between the ages Of five to seven
IN onths. But, while they give these
pigs all the shelleG corn soaked in water
twelve to twenty four hours, that the
pigs will eat up clean in a half hour or
less, we also find the pigs have the
range Of the orchard or blue grass lots
or clover field with shade and water
always accessible.
These corn feeders have noticed that
they have ''awfuI luck" if the season is
such that they have little or no grass
or clover has failed. They may feed
ever SO carefully and add slop in abund-
ance made from mill feed, yet the pigs
have not the soft coal and oily skin or
ready appetite they have when the
grass is fresh and abundant, and clover
is young and plenty, or the pigs in the
orchard get apples and grass as they
ike between maps.
The value of good pasture, whether
of clover or blue grass, timothy, orchard
grass, red top, Or rye, is hard to esti
mate. So great is it that we can safely
assert the cheapest and most whole
some pork cannot be made without it
We may do as the Danes, Canadians
and other successful pork makers have
to do where oats, peas and barley grow
and oil cake, rape and vetches are
added for variety, and we may learn
best markets of the world comes not
from the fact that they do not feed any
C m, but that they feed mixed ratione
less rich in starch and richer in the
bone and muscle formers. With
ability to grow clover and grass wher
ever corn grows, we can SO cheaply
furnish clover and grass that during
the majority OF the year when pasture
IS available, we can have a we'll bal
enced ration for hogs of all ages at less
COST than our rivals.

Farewell To-Morrow.
The Session Has Been an Exceed
ingly Profitable One for
All Concerned.

This week ends the Mile Laos and
.Sherburne counties summer school
and the student teachers will separate
Friday night to seek their homes and
spend the remainder of their vacation
recruiting physically for the work of
the coming school year. Much has
been crowded into the four weeks of
study, but the student will have ample
time to assimilate the varied informa-
ton here given. The methods ac-
CURED at the summer school will be
carried into home study through the.
coming year. Association with other
minds of like tastes will increase the
enthusiasm for culture which solitary
study cannot bring.
Princeton has been fortunate in Sc
curing excellent instructors and the
result of this month Of study and as
ISOLATION will undoubtedly prove of
great benefit to those who have been
fortunate enough to be enrolled in this
school.

A sherburne Sensation.

The sudden disappearance Of Willie
Cakes, a l6-year-old boy, living with
his step-sister in the town of Palmer,
Sherburne county, was reported here
to-day, and indications point strongly
to foul play. The boy has been living
with his step-sister and her husband,
Al Al Blood. Some days ago the mother
OF the boy, also residing with her step
daughter, went away for a few days
visit. Upon her return the boy. was
gone, and Blood was unable to give a
satisfactory explanation of his where
abouts. Blood has told a number Of
conflicting stories, which leads those
interested to believe that he knows all
about Oakes' disappearance. When
Blood S wife was questioned about the
matter she burst out into tears, and
said she did not want to hear the name
of Willie Cakes mentioned The af-
fair, in which the county officials of
Elk 4 River have now taken a hand, has
created considerable excitement.
