Cotton, Provisions, Etc.

4 New York, Nov. 29.-Prices OF stocks
were, on the whole. very we'll sus-
tanned to-day, in spite of some factors
making Tor reaction. Chief of these
mas the continued hardness OF the
money market, the further slump In
leather and the movement TO lake
profits in the trunk-line stocks. which
nave advanced SO aggressiyely for
some time past. This profit taking
movement and the nearest to official
soifilrlnatlon that could be had Of the
numerous published reports and rumors
or q consolidation Of control OF the
great trunk lines. Those favored with
ADVANCE information of such q protoci
would naturally be sellers when the
news became public property and
Drought in outside buyers.
a good proportion OF to-day's outside
buyers, thus invited, operated by
caDle orders from London. Americans
shared IN the general strength in that
marker on account of the reports of
British military successes against the
boers., London buying was also at
tracted by the publication of the Cur
rency- reform measure to be nurs,,ea
by the dominant party at the coming
session or Congress. This buying for
I:onoon account was the mainstay of
the market, and spotty strength dis
mayed here and there by individual
stocks. many Of them very obscure
nneasiness over the money outlook.
sTo-morrow's holiday also prompted
Some closing up of short accounts
Whiie London's buying was the main
supporting factor, the hardening in
the London money rate and the fears
OF an advance In the Bank OF England
rare Tomorrow discouraged operations
Tor the long account. The demand for
money Kept the rate at z per cent. and
ABOVE until it had been mostly salts
ned, when 1T fell beloved per cent. in
the last dealings and the stock market
m ,,e IN response. The treas
ury's disbursements on account of
pond redemptions were considerably
below, s2,000,000, and tho Treasury
statement from Washington showed
the days revenue receipts nearly
100000 in excess Of expenditures. AS
Ghls IS the last day for which the
treasury Department offer to redeem
bonds holds good. the total disburse-
ments for redemption are but little
over half the amount OF the total
offered The feeling is general in Wall
street, however, that the period of the
OFFER Will be extended, and safety
valve against pressure OF money rates
thus supplied. A further decline in
New York exchange at Chicago to so
cents discount against 20 cents yester-
dny was downward movement in
New York exchange at other domestic
centers, were against the supposition
that New York is gaining this week
on the interior currency movement, as
was the case last week fractional |
net gains are the rule In stocks, and |
they rise to point or over only in a |
few exceptional cases.
The bond market was quiet, and |
prices showed some improvement as
the day progressed. Total sales, par |

The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1899-08-22
EXPERIMENT STA.
TION METHODS.

The work of the experiment ss2-
tions are interesting enough, but it is
not practicable to apply their methods
to extensive farming operations" said
an Illinois farmer not long ago. This
man is a progressive farmer, too, and
likes to grow good crops, but like
good many others he misses the point
that she experiment stations are aim
ing at. We have no doubt that this
very man is benefited by the work that
has been done by the experiment sta
tions without realizing the fact.
The work carried at the stations is
one of infinite detail and attention to
minute particulars, many of which are
seemingly unimportant. The man
who would apply this work to his own
fields should not undertake to follow it
exactly as the stations have worked
out the problems that arise as he ploWs,
sows and cultivates. But out of the
mass of detail that experiment station
bulletins furnish the farmer who reads
and properly considers them, may de =
duct certain broad principles that will
guide him on the way to success. The
experiment stations deal with tenths
or twentieths of an acre and must be
very exact, or a large element of error
would creep into their calculations and
render their work valueless The
farmer who has fields Of anywhere
from ten to eighty acres to deal with
need not be so exact and particular in
his work, but follow the work of the
stations in a general way and benefit
thereby.
The bulletins of the various stations
are filled with particulars, which if
carefully studied will give any man
education in agricultural science
in the course of few years, and put
him in possession of q mass of reliable
that will help him to wiring
from the most untavorable sur
By apply this infoTma-
ton properly the value Of any farm
may be greatly increased because a
farm must be valued according to its
F Armers' Voice.
