SHERIFF PAGE SETTLES.
A Statement of Wake County Taxes For the
Year.

Pursuant to adjournment the Board OF
County Commissioners of Wake county
met yesterday and Sheriff Page made
final settlement of taxes for the year
1899 After deducting the delinquent list,
insolvents dead and removed and re-
bates, the following amounts were PAID
to the county treasurer for the different
fup6c.
The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1900-05-18

In addition to the above amounts Sherln
Page paid in the taxes collected under
Schedule and c" amounting TO Sl4,-
941.3S. This is by far the largest settle
ment ever made with the county and
Sheriff Page deserves the highest praise

Quoted the Affairs of the sheritf's office
He has at all times given his personal
attention to the affairs of the county, al
ways guarding them with jealous care.
That he has conducted his office upon
strictly business principles is shown by
the fact that the delinquent list is eX-
ceedingly small the county part twhlch
includes all the above funds amounts to
about $3.50. This fact is very gratifying
to the taxpayers of the county.

AS with other work, there is a right
way and a wrong way to ring the bull,
says Rural Life. Before trying to ring
him have him fast. A dehorning shoot
is a good thing for holding him, but a
post or manger with a chance to tie to
a timber well in front will answer. Tie
high and short. Have ready a three
cornered file with the point and edges
ground sharp. Thrust it through the
partition of the nose with a firm hand.
It is easily done and causes little pain.
AS the file is Withdrawn follow it with
the open end of the ring, close the ring
and put in the screw, and the job is
done. If the bull throws himself when
he finds that he cannot free himself
from the tolls and hangs by the head,
never mind. Let him hang and be
hanged. Stick the file through the
nose and insert the ring at once while
he hangs. You will never have a bet
ter chance, nor "a you ask anything
better. Besides, he will not hurt him
self. He has no tender feelings to- be
hurt in that way, and there is no call
to exercise your bowels Of compassion
in his behalf. He will look out for
himself all the time, and the only eau
ton needed is for all that handle him
to do the same thing. Firm work,
quick work, quiet work and things a
ranged 81 that you are sur Of the
mastery are the essentials.

small sweet Corn For sheep.

One Of the very best sown crops for
sheep is the small early corn, says The
Sheep Breeder. 1t is nutritious and
pleasant to the palate. It may be har-
vested by the lambs by the use OF
hurdles, by which plots of it are set
off to be fed in succession. Sorghum is
another useful plant for this use, for
while the corn will sprout again after
having been fed down 1t viii not make
so quick and abundant growth as the
sorghum will. The Narragansett va
riety of corn will easily make 10 to is
tons to the acre, and it will be ready
for feeding down In ten weeks. The
early Minnesota may be sown in rows
two feet apart and eight inches apart
n5the rows and will be ready for feed
ing in six weeks. Peas may be sown
between the rows at the second or
third cultivation and will follow the
corn after It is eaten down. The
treading of the lambs will not hurt the
peas. This is a matter which every
shepherd should study out and expert
ment on as q very profitable economy.

Fine Wool -production.

Evidence seems TO accumulate favor
ing the view Of q further serious short
age in the worlds supply Of wool, says
The National Stockman. During the
past year Australasia furnished the
markets of the world 100000 bales less
wool than III 1866. II seems certain
that for the current year exports from
this quarter VIII suffer a further re-
duction There Is no corresponding In
more Nvool will be clipped In America
Than for some years. With South Afri-
ca out OF the business temporarily and
Australian production declining at such
= rate the prospect for wool Is highly
favorable 50 far ais the supply affects
1t. This applies especially to the fine
woods such as Australia produces.

WOOL AND PRICES.
Growers Seem TO Have the Market
Well In Hand. E

Growers Seem to Have the Market
Well In Hand.
The fact that wool is higher in some
of the growing districts than in the
eastern wooden manufacturing cities,
says g. p. Smith in The American Gull
tivator, is good evidence that shep-
herds appreciate the condition of
things. Usually in the advance of q
farm commodity the spectators and
big dealers get the best of the market
and secur the largest part Of the in-
crease. This year there have been.
some notable achievements in wheat,
cotton and wool. The reason for this
is attributed to the fact that farmers
are becoming better acquainted with
the conditions which decide future
prices. They read more and cast their
own conclusions. Reliable statistics
are furnished them at little cost, and
they can become investors and specu-
lators as much as the marketmen.
Heretofore all that SPECTATORS had to
do in order to attract farm products to
the markets was to run up prices a
trife, and every farmer would ship
his goods to the cities with the iney-
table. glut and reaction. We do not
do business that way today. There
are plenty who are willing to hold
their stocks and wait for more favora-
BILE markets. More farmers have held
corn this year until the planting of a
new crop than ever before, and the
spectators who have been working ey-
cry possible way to attract these stores
to the market in a food have failed.
Now, with corn actually advancing in
the face Of another large crop to be
planted, the holders are reaping their
rewards.
The wool farmers are in a fair way
to repeat the same lesson. They are
not anxious to part with their stocks,
and operators in the manufacturing
%centers would gladly purchase almos,
anything in sight at the holders prices
The new clip Of southern California
and Texas is now being sheared, but
the holders hold prices on it that are
almost prohibitory. It may be that
prices are nearly as high as they viii
be, but the fact that the growers con.
troll the market and mean to hold it is
promising. We need more such co
operation and Intelligent action on the
part of farmers in every section. Ii
marketing wool OF any other farm
product do not ship all your stock II
one market and at one time. 1t is bet
ter to distribute your eggs in severa
baskets, and then if n is upset there
is more to fall back u. There is M
reason why farmers should not hole
the key to the whole situation in corn
