AS TO TRADING AT HOME

u
The following observations on a
familiar text-that Of trading al home
are from the Aberdeen 7s!Sgram.
Il says:
We may talk about the gold stand

yer, and may try both, but we will re-
main poor until some great evils right
at our door are remedied. We be-

county if the $4,000 (and We think
this low estima,e) that IS sent gu,
for the FIVE articles should 60 into the
hands Of our own farmers, and from
them into the other channels Of bus
mess. We would hear less crying
about hard time, we would have les:

be independent We need to b,
more self reliant. Moore county

City, and try to bridge the chasu
with ) cent cotton, We will not only
remain poor, but will grow poore
every year.
Commenting on the above the Win
ston Sentinel says:
We want to see our farmers not onl,
raise sufficient supplies for their OWL
use, but a surplus wherewith 20 furnish
the local markets, and then We wan

Tracts About Cuba's Climate.

The weather bureau at Washington has completed q valuable treatise on the climate of Cuba, which furnishes definite figures in support of the con tention that the bugaboo of the rainy season in Cuba Is largely imaginary. The average temperature at Havana during June, July. and August is only S2 degrees-the same as that at New Orleans, and only seven degrees more than at Washington. In fact, Wash ington has hotter days than Havana ever has. Havana's hottest Is 100 de grees, while Washlngton's Is 104 de- grees. The average yearly rainfall at Havana is considerably less than at New Orleans, being 51.73 inches, against the Louisiana city's 60.52 inches. Even in the so called rainy season, which began with May and will end with September. the rainfall at Havana Is only 32.37 inches, as against New Orleans 27 inches. AS much rain frequently falls in the dry season as in the so-called rainy period. The rela- tive humidity of the atmosphere ap- pears to be fairly constant and aver ages only about 75 per cent of satura- tion.-Chicago Tribune.

OCEAN TELEGRAPH CABLES.
All Told About $4,000 Miles Havs
Been Laid

A cable will be laid next summer from
Scotland to Iceland by way of the Farce
islands. The Icelandic parliament has
voted a subsidy to the enterprise. 1t is
believed that Great Britain will con-
meet Iceland with British America by
cable, so as to give her another cable
route to this country.
Less than so years ago the first cable
was laid between Great Britain and the
American continent. Now a cable is
laid every year. The last Transatlantic
cable was laid by the Commercial Cable
in 1894, but many smaller
cables have been laid since. just now
the interest of the world, or SO much
of it as is absorbed by the cable ques-
ton, is conferred in the connection De
tween the American continent and the
far west. under the Pacific ocean.
Great Britain has undertaken to lay a
cable from British Columbia to Aus
tralia by way of the FIJI islands Al
the same time two American companies
are struggling for the privilege OF lay
ING a cable from our western coast TO
japan and China by way o. Hawai-.
When one OF these Pacific cables has
been completed the earth Will De
girdled. This consummation has peeh
slow in coming. 1t is promised at a
fine when Tesla claims that he will be
able soonto telegraph to any part o11he
world without cables or even lano
wires.
There are about 152, 900 miles OF ca
bles, which have cost about 2oo,ooo'o
These figures are only approximate De
cause no II knows exactly the cond1-
tion of all the cables. Undoubtedly
some useless and abandoned cables still
appear on the map. :,
Nine-tenths of the cables of the worlc
are controlled by Great Britain, anc
even the American cables make a mrs
In nding on British-American soil. U
the ten Transatlantic cables in actlv'
use. not one lands in the United States
Those which do not land in English pos
sessions have their termini on a ffenei
island. 1t has been said that IN cas-
of war with the United States, Urea
BRITAIN would have an advantage owe
no rough the control of the capies
She would not control the French ca
bles. and it is not likely she "oup

The route of every cable on TN
ooaan,s bed has been marked an
mapped carefully. If we had tronol
with Great Britain it would be a con
s. paratively simple thing to send a r
: pair ship out to graphic for the eapi,
