AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT PUBLICA
TONS.

We are gratified to note the very
sensible remarks of Mr.. Geo. VIM
Hill, Chief of the Publication Divis
ion of the Department of Agricul-
ture, with reference to the rather
indiscriminate distribution of agri-
cultural publications. He says: CAT
the present time many of our docu-
ments are wasted carelessly thrown
aside or misplaced. If paid for, at
even five sents apiece, they would
receive more care" The same idea
has often suggested itself to US. For
our part, we believe that it would be
best if the Department paid postage
upon documents sent out by it, and
each applicant were required to pay
the postage upon the publications
desired him, no other charge being
made for them. This certainly
would not be an unreasonable de-
mand, and we believe that it would
make the Department publications
far more effective than they now
are.
Another really excellent idea of
Mr.. Hills is in regard to the estab-
lishment of what might be called
agricultural libraries at fourth class
5postofices. The suggestion is new
to us, but we believe it's adoption
would result in much good, and we
hope that the Department will give
1it a thorough test.

either the team or the machine, IL
is no place to learn the name OF tooIs
nor their manipulation. The farmers
bow knows this already. He does
not 90 to the college to learn the
how, but the why, and get the hold
of first principles that he may apply
them under the varying conditions
and circumstances in which he finds
himself. In order that this prejudice
may be removed where it exists IN
the agricultural mind, there should
be excursions to all these colleges
every year. Let the farmers go to
the college, see for themselves, get
lover their prejudices, and become
imbued with the spirit of better
farming.
In this contest with the men whose
ideas of education belong to the city
and the professions, the farmer will
win, and win partly because he has
to, partly because of his superior
numbers, and the desire Of leglsla-
tors and others who appoint or choose
managers for educational institu-
itions to stand we'll with the farmer.
It will take time, however, and
patience. The farmers son must
not be robbed of his birthright. He
is to rule this country by and by
we go further, and say to ssave it ;
and these sons cannot know too
much either of farming or govern
ment. 1t is the educated farm boy
that will shape the policies, both of
the farm and of the country at large,
in the next twenty-five years.

JUST A WORD.

For the information of our readers.
we will state that the misfortune
which we have suffered will not in
terfere with the policy and conduct
of The Progressive Farmer, since
Mrs. Polk never engaged in the edi
torial or business management of the
paper. The present editorial policy
will be continued and the genera.
business regulations hitherto pre-
vailing will remain in force. We
trust that all subscribers in arrears
will forward renewals promptly and
assist us in increasing the circulation
of the paper.
AS will be seen from a notice pub
lished elsewhere, Mr.. D. Fl. BrOwdel
has qualified as administrator of the
estate of Mrs. Polk, and will collect
accounts due. Subscriptions should
of course, be sent direct to "The
Progressive Farmer, Raleigh, N. Co.

THE TRUTH AS To-TBE COTTON GIN.

Mr.. D. A. Tompkins, of Charlotte,
SO we'll known in cotton manufacture
ing circles, has made a careful study
of the mooted questions as to the in
vention of the cotton gin and the
alleged i'll treatment of it's inventor.
AS a result of his Investigation, he
gives out the following statement of
facts:
/. Eli Whitney, of Massachusetts,
a graduate Of Yale College, invented
a cotton gin, consisting of spikes
driven in a wooden cylinder, and
having a slotted bar through which
these spike teeth passed, and having
a brush to clear the spikes. He OBJ
tanned patent March IA, 1894, signed
by George Washington, President,
Edmund Randolph, Secretary of
state, and VIM. Bradford, Attorney
General.
2. Hodgen Holmes, of Georgia, an
uneducated mechanic, invented an
improved gin, using circular saws
properly spaced, passing through
spaces between ribs. For this in
vention he obtained a patent May
IL, 1896, signed by George Washing
ton, President, Timothy Pickering,
Secretary of State and Chas. Lee,
General.
3. Whitney, invention, consisting
of a combination of a wooden cylin
der, carrying angular rows of wire
spikes, with a slotted bar and clear
ing brush was fundamental.
4. The practical application of the.
fundamental idea was Holmes in
vention of the saw~gin, which CON-
of a mandrel or shaft carrying
collars separating circular saws.
which pass through narrow spaces.
between ribs.
5. Whitney went South utterly
impecunious. He received FROM
the Southern States the following
amounts:
From South Carolina ....... $50, OOOj
From North Carolina 80, 600
From Tennessee (about) 10, OOOI
Total royalties from Southern
States, certainly as much as $50, OOOi
At that time this was a fortune.
6. In Georgia his firm (Miller 81
Whitney, attempted to monopolize
the ginning business. This brought
on long and vexatious litigation, and
the object was never successfully ao-|
oomplished.
