STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Jan. S.-The volume OF
trading in stocks today was ON Il small

Wall street to await the development of

sitiveness of the market to the influence
of foreign events was leading motive
Notwithstanding the downward course of
interest rates in London and on the Con
tinent it is clear that there is need of
more money abroad. Foreign observers
of good authority offer the suggestion
that the present ease of money abroad IS
due to artificial causes ON governmental
initiative. In England it is evident that
the purpose of this manoeuver is to pre-
pare the money market for placing gov
eminent loans to an advantage. In Ger
many it is designed to strengthen conf
dence and help out the vast industrial en-
terprises which have been undertaken
there. In any event, the effect is to draw

AT A. AND M. COLLEGE.
A Short Course of Study for Farmers
and Farmers Sons,

The management of the Agricultural
and Mechanical College is seeking in
every way to bring the benefits of that
institution within the reach of as many
farmers and sons of farmers as possible,
as the following announcement shows:
n short course in Agriculture and
horticulture, embracing lectures and
practical work in cattle feeding, dairy
ing, grating, hot-bed and greenhouse
propagation, poultry raising, staple crops,
judging cattle. and the principles of
chemistry applicable TO agricultural
practices, has been arranged by the
North Carolina College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts for farmers and
farmers sons.
The course will embrace a period of
ten weeks. No examinations will be re-
quired for entrance nor at the end Of the
course. Students must be at least Is
years of age and of good moral character.
Board and lodging, including fuel and
lights, in the college will cost SO per
month. Board and lodging outside of the
college can be obtained for S12 per
month. Total expenses for the full
course, including books and stationery,
will be S37, if board and lodging can be
secured in the college; $40, if outside the
college.
These short courses are rapidly grow
ing Ill popularity, and the knowledge and
experience gained by observation, lee
lures, conversation and practical work
in the well equipped barns, dairy, green
houses. workshops and laboratories of
the college prove of inestimabe value in
the saving of dollars and cents by the
adoption Of new and practical improve
ments in farm work. The short course
begins January 3rd, at a time when
farmers can best afford TO be away from
home. Parties interested should apply

Limington on the 10Th inst, and al.

wards of one hundred people were pres

These reunions, organized by Lauris-

ago, have become one OF the institutions
of northern York county and in their way
are models for other reunions. They are
informal, livley, chatting, laughing fam
lily gatherings where old men and wom-
en- become boys and girls again. They
have excellent music by their own peo-
pie, a few little speeches of the "happy-
go-lucky' order, and their table is most
bountiful. Mr.. Small is of the opinion
that thousand descendants of Francis
Small would attend the reunions were
there accommodations for them, for he is
quite busy each summer writing letters
of discouragement to those afar who wish
to come. g.
