VALUABLE VASES SEIZED.
Ancient Ornaments Worth RA0,OOO How in Handa of Customs
 OMeers.

Two Chinese vases. worth $4o,oOO, were seized by the customs officers at New York on the French line pier for alleged evasion of the customs law. The vases were the property of M. De Mahlherbe, Parisian dealer. The vases are superb specimens of the work Of an ancient dynasty.
 The authorities learned in some man ner of the importation of the vases in- to the city from China via Vancouver and Quebec and located them at n stor- age warehouse. NJ. De Malherbe ex- hibited them at that place to several collectors, it is said, and asked $40,OOO for the pair. The vases were removed O few days ago.
 An inspector learned that M. De Malherbe had secured passage on La Bretagne, intending to go with his vases to France. They were seized just before the ship sailed. NJ. De Malherbe admitted importing the vases from China. He expressed himself as great ly shocked and surprised at what he deemed his great misfortune in not bet ter knowing the laws.

GUAM'S POPULATION.
Census of the Island Shows There
 Are 8,66I Persons There.
GSv. Leary Also Reports . Growing 0uRpluA iR the TreasuYy-Need Tee Machine and Library to
 Make MiM Happy.

Gov. Leary has sent to the navy de. partment another of his characteristic official reports about affairs in Guam including the results of a thorough census taken under his direction, and a financial statement of the first six months of his administration, which shows gratifying and growing sur. plus of Mexican dollars in the island treasury. American money has not yet entered into circulation in Guam, and the figures in the balance sheet represent the silver currency left there by the Spaniards. The amount in the local treasury on July 1. 1899 was $2.l7l. The receipts from July 1, to January last, were $9,4l5 and the expenditures for the same period were $6,7o7, leaving in the treasury on Janu- ary l, 1900, $4,s19.
 The governor reports that the evap- orating plant is in excellent condition, but he is still without an ice machine, with the hot weather almoSt at hand. The steam sawmill has been erected, and was ready for work. A telephone system had been installed, and was in successful operation between Agana, the capital, and Pitt, the port. The off, ceRs of the Yosemite were still engaged on the typographical survey of the island, which would be finished in a few months. In fact, all was we'll at Guam, and life there would be perfect with refrigerating plant and good library.
 The tabulated enumeration of the population of Guam has been forward ed by the secretary of the navy to the director of the census, to be included in the total of the United States. It shows that Guam had a population of S,e61 persons on January l, 1900. Of these 5,249 lived in the capital city of Agana. In the district of Agana are five villages. which with their popula- tions are: Amiga, 146; Asan, 265; Tehungan, 200; Sinahsna, IA, and Carolinas, 90. The Ave towns on the island outside of the district of Agana, with their totals, are: Agat. "A: sumay. 566; Umatta, 236; Morizo, 491; Inarahan. bIs. Of the total production of the island, 3,12s are males over seven year old, 3,oSo are females over seven years. and 1853 are children under seven years.

PRICE OF COTTON.

The indications are thatthe cotton
crop is again short in nearly all the
Southern States, but that good prices
will prevail throughout the season.
The cotton mills have run on full
time for a year past and last years
crop being small, there is no surplus.
From a recent issue of the Charlotte
Observer we get this statement
'The cotton mill men are gloomy
these days, compared to what they
were six months ago. The price of
cotton is too near the price of yarns,
A cotton manufacturer told an OBJ
server man yesterday that he would
shut down his mill as soon as his
present supply of cotton gave out,
and that will be five weeks from now.
This same man does not look for cot
ton to be down, except for a few
weeks next month, when the first
cotton begins to come in. However,
he does expect yarns to go up. IN
10SS bAO CObOOA CAOP WILL ONSSSN -
900, 900 bales the price must continue
good, for the surplus has about all
been used. IF there are but II, 00O,-
900 bales made, the price will stay
around 10 cents"
The above was putin type before
the Commissioners of Agriculture in
this city last week made their esti-
mate of the crop. Their estimate,
however, only bears out the state
ments made above. The resolutions
adopted unanimously by them are as
follows:
BIASED upon the reliable informa-
ton from all sources from each of
the cotton States and Territories,
taking into consideration the con
dition of the cotton crop, we are led
to believe that the following will be
the output of the crop for the cas-
of 1900 and 1901:
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1900-09-04

the minimum percentages of fertil-
izer ingredients should appear on the
bags.
1--WE are further of the opinion,
and recommend, that fertilizer man
ufacturers in fling their guarantees
with departments of agriculture or
other departments having such work
in charge; be required to furnish, in
addition to the percentages of val
liable constituents of their fertilizers,
the materials of which each particu-
lar brand is made or is to be made.
For example, - brand is made
from acid phosphate, cotton-seed
meal and kainit or acid phosphate,
dried blood, nitrate of soda and mu-
rate Of potash"
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1900-09-04

carefully our news departments, our
selections from the best literature of
the day and Aunt Jennie's excellent
department on pages 4 and 5, our
General Correspondence department
where you find all the vital, living,
public questions discussed from all
points of view, etc., etc.
Yet, we are firmly convinced that
there is one department of the paper
to which we give as careful attention
as to any of these, that you are wo-
fully neglecting. We refer to the
advertising department. There we
attempt to give each week a splen-
did list of the most reliable, pro-
gressive and bu~siness-like dealers in
everything needed by the farmer
and his family. We never admit
any advertisement when we have
doubts as to the reliability of the adj
vertiser. We might make money by
so doing. but we would feel that we
were merely giving a license to a
robber to defraud our people. And
that is the way you ought to feel re-
garding any paper that carries de-
ceptive and humbug advertisements.
| But the men who ask for your pat
ronage through The Progressive
Farmer are thoroughly reliable, You
| ought not to depend entirely upon
your crossroads merchant, but order
| for yourself and save m~iddlemen's
profits. In the palmy days of the
Alliance much was said regarding
the middleman. Sometimes-yes,
quite often-he is necessary, but
whenever you can save a few dollars
by buying direct, you ought to do it
The middleman will hardly starve /;
if he seems to be heading that way,
he'll go back to farming, or we'll
take up a collection for him. It's
the business men-whether business
merchants, business bankers or
business" farmers, who are making
a success in their respective lines.
Try a little business for yourself. 1t
may not be easy at first, but you'll
get used to it.
Finally, read u advertisements.
Send for circulars, price lists, cata-
logues. Get improved farm nipple
ments and machinery, improved
stock, etc, etc. This is the way to
be a business" farmer, and he's the
only farmer who is enjoying the adj
vantages offered by up-to-date i'm
provements and making the farm
pay.

BETTER FERTILIZER LAWS.

Much good work was done at the
meeting of Commissioners of Agri-
culture in this city last week, but
nothing of more value to the thou
sands of fertilizer-buying farmers of
the South than the movement for
improved and uniform fertilizer laws.
The report of the committee on this
subject, consisting of Drs. B. w.
Kilgore, j. M. McCandless and E.
w. Magruder, should have the hearty
approval of al farmers. And those
in this State should bring pressure to
bear upon our next Legislature to
have its every jot and little enacted
into law. The report recommends
that fertilizer sacks be branded so as
to>give only the following informa-
ton:
/. Brand name or trade mark.
2. Weight of each package in
pounds.
3. Available phosphoric acid (per
cent?.
4. Insoluble phosphoric acid (per
cent?.
5. Nitrogen (per cent?.
+ 6. Potash (per cent?.
Potash as here used mean potas-
SUM oxide K2O), soluble in wa
ter when derived from mineral
sources, but includes total potash in
organic materials like cotton-seed
meal and tobacco stems.
z. Total phosphoric acid per
cent?.
This is to be used only in case of
pure bone meals and other animal
and vegetable materials, where no
available whosphoric acid is claimed.
Where 3 appears on the bag z must
be omitted, even with the class of
goods referred to under z.
s. Name and address of manufac-
turer.
With the ordinary fertilizer the
required branding on the bags would
be: -
1. Name of brand.
2. Weight of package in pounds.
8. Available phosphoric acid (per
cent?.
4. Insoluble phosphoric acid (per
cent?.
s.. Nitrogen (per cent?.
g.. Potash (per cent?.
z. Manufacturer.
With a bone-meal it would be
Total phosphoric aid (per cent?.

The report continues:

should not be allowed, AMI that only

The Board of Directors of the East
Carolina Truck and Fruit Growers
Association met in Wilmington last
week. The Association controls a
large portion of the truck shipped
along the roads leading from Will
mington and saved it's members $780,
900 in freight-rate concessions last
year. This shows what can be ac-
comp1ished by organization.
No farmer who buys a single bag
of commercial fertilizer should fail
to read the address on fertilizer buy
ing by our efficient State Chemist,
DIR. B. w. Kilgore, in this issue of
The Progressive Farmer and the adj
mirable paper on the same subject
by Virginia's State Chemist, DIR. E.W.
Magruder, which we shall publish
next week. One of the greatest
drains on our State, and the South
generally, is the enormous sum lost
to us annually by injudicious pur-
ChaSeS of fertilizers.
The action of the Grand Army of
the Republic last week in attacking
the histories in use in Southern
States was unfortunate in every way
and in very poor taste. The South
is loyal to the Union-the North is
not more so-but she reserves the
right to teach her W views, las
God gives her to see the light" re-
garding the late unpleasantness. We
think that in all things the bloody
shirt should be buried, and that the
utmost care should be exercised in
the selection of school histories, with
a view to making the rising genera
tion better citizens of the State and
the Nation, but the G.. A. Rs med
ding in these affairs will not promote
this work.
In addition to the papers by Messrs.
Holmes and KilgOre, we publish a
number of other valuable articles
this week. No farmer should pre-
pare for wheat sowing before read
ing the facts taught by long expe-
rienee at the Tennessee Statation, as
set forth by Prof. Soule, on page 1.
We give other useful papers on agri-
cultural subjects. Bro. J. P. Sossa-
man has an article on the State Ali
ance meeting, written in his usual
happy style. We like to hear from
Bro. Sossaman, but if any OF the
good brethren discontinue their sub
scriptions because of his reference to
hearty appetites, a damage suit will
be in order. Mr.. S. A. Hauser dis
cusses Socialism. On this we shall
comment next week. Our business
Manager writes on a subject of con-
siderable Importance. Our Cores
pondence Department should be full
now. With education, expansion,
Alliance reorganization, the effect of
the amendment, work for the next
Legislature, and many other topics
for discussion, we should have at
least a dozen letters per week. Write
your views.

"ThiS estimate, however, is sub
ject to the weather condition for the
month of September and also killing
frosts later on. This estimate is
given out as being the opinion of
this association"
Another resolution of much i'm
portance urging farmers to adopt
methods that will enable them to
secure the prices per pound that they
should have for this short crop,
passed unanimously, as follows:
"ResoJUed, That we urge upon the
cotton growers the Importance of
distributing the sale of cotton over
the entire year as nearly as may be
in order that the market may not be
depressed by dumping the entire
crop on the market at or soon after
picking season, as has been done in
some previous years. To this end,
and to enable the cotton grower the
more intelligently to distribute such
sales
"2. That the Department of Agri-
culture of the several States be earn
estly requested to furnish to the
press during the marketing Of the
cotton crop statistical information
from time to time of the amounts of

ONE OF YOUR SINS OF OMISSION.

We expect you to read the, farm
departments of The Progressive
Farmer pretty closely. It's very
natural that you do. Some of the
most successful farmers in this and
other States write for The Progress.
i've Farmer and the suggestions they
give from their experience mean
money to those that study them.
Besides the editor-in-chief, who is
always at the Office, we have as cor
responding editors two men who
have perhaps had more experience
with all lines of general farming
than any other two men in the State.
Prof. Benjamin Irby is Agriculture
ist of the N. @. Experiment Station
and gives constant attention to the
crops and soils and all work on the
large and wel1-managed Experiment
Farm there. Prof. Frank E. Emery
also managed this farm for a num-
Der of years, has successfully con-

we repeat, with these on our edito-
rial staff and our many able contribu-
