THE CROP OUTLOOK.

The last government report on the
condition and acreage of crops is con-
strued by the statistician of the New
York Produce Exchange to in
dictate corn harvest of 1343.-
$50, 000 bushels. 1t is explained
by the New York Journal of
Commerce that this statistician's fig
ures OF yield per acre are based on he
average value of condition of 100 as
indicated by the Department of Agri-
cultures returns for five years. This
same basis of figuring last year called
for a corn yield of ,957 $50 900 BUSH
els, while the Governments final har-
vest returns were 2,105. 102 ,316 bushels.
The production of oats is shown by
the Departments report (using the
Produce Exchange formula for fgur-
ing) to be $50, 1851 900 bushels. This is
an increase of 1924. 600 bushels COM
pairing with the September estimate,
but is decrease of 14S. 1868, 9S9 bushels
comparing with the Departments re-
port for 1900. The following table Is

STOP CHILD LABOR.


1t is very gratifying to hear from
representative cotton mill men in Raj
eigh yesterday that about ninety per
cent of the cotton mills OF the State had
agreed to work only eleven hours a
day and not employ any children. eX-
cept the children of widows, under
twelve years old in the factories. Many
of the mill owners have already put the
eleven hour law in operation and many
would like to put an end to the crying
evil of child labor. IT is not hard labor,
but the confinement and standing, that
are more dwarfing to childhood than
hard labor in the open fields
The gentlemen who sign the agree
ment Will keep;its but all have not sign
ed and if will not be binding ON new
mills. There is but one certain way
to protect the children and that is to
make it unlawful to do what ninety
per cent of the viii owners say ought
not 70 be done.

WHY THY DO NOT MARRY.

Mr. Carroll d. Wright. Commissioner
of Labor, says statistics show that OF
l7,425 representative workingmen in
twenty cities, seyenty-fiye per cent OF
whom are under twenty-five years of age,
1887 are unmarried. He says this is
simply appalling" In the good old
times one half of these would have
been married from three to FIVE years.
The constant tendency to postpone mar
riage until late in life is largely due to
the inability of the average man to earn
with the increased cost of living. The
Medical Journal thus comments on a sit
uation that Col. Wright calls appalling:
Several theories have been advanced to
account for this increasing appropriately of
marriage. The statement that young
men have become more shy and embar-
raised in the presence of the modern
go-ahead girl may have some truth in it.
The present tendency is undoubtedly 10
cultivate self-assurance and independence
in young women and to encourage them
to become self supporting. Many avenues
are open to them; they can make COM
Portable living and enjoy life. Many a
woman, in fact. can make a better living
for one than the majority OF young men
can make for two with prospects OF
more) This situation tends to check
marriage in two ways: First, it makes
the women more independent of men, and
therefore, in the second place. perhaps a
trifle less attractive TO them. Marriage
is an odd affair anyhow 1t is largely q
psychical business at the start. based
upon a delicate and emotional instinct;
and all the logic and reason of progress
sive age cannot alter that fact. The push
ing and business-like modern woman is
not conducive to it. The competition and
the stress of modern life are deterrent 10
matrimony Every one can see this in his
daily observation. How few men are able
properly TO marry before they are thirty
1--WE or forty. But by this time the girl
companions of their youth are almost it
ted to become grandmothers.

PLEA FOR THE VETERANS.
Gallant Old Soldiers Whom the State Should
Remember.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Dave McDanial, Of Stanly county, was
Confederate soldier for four years He
was very brave man. and was wounded
three times. He was a member of a Stan
ly county company commanded by Capt.
Bill Montgomery. He is very poor and
is cobbler BIZ trade He was so years
old last August. Besides doing a years
work at his trade last year he walked
/ 800 miles going to and from his village
shop TO the little hovei in which he lives
out in the county. but Notwithstanding
all of this, he has never drawn one dollar
of pension money yet Is this any credit
to North Carolina? The State that fur
nished more troops for Lees army in the
great struggle than any other State

their lives in the great struggle for our

| than they have been getting If they
can pay a healthy young man $4,000 a
year TO be Governor. they might pay the
poor old soldiers $4,000 apiece. Georgia
| paid her old veterans 100000 last year.
How much did North Carolina pay her
needy soldiers? Most of the members OF

1 know nothing about the hardships of q

the old veterans, and ought to be in sym

we have seen some of the old veterans on

the most of the soldiers of this State were

NOW FOR FOUR MONTHS SCHOOL

l. The House yesterday passed the Az

fvill become law today. 1t provides
: for State adoption OF books for the pub
sic schools for term of four years.
ard is a bin that was generally APPROX
Ell by the press, the teachers and the
spotrchs of the school. 1t ought to
guarantee cheaper books, and we be
.lieve it will do So
Now that il is out of the way. the
Legislature should take UP the best
method of giving four months school
to every school district in the State.
That is the constitutional demand and
the Democratic pledge. More than
that, it is the supremest need of the
State, and the Legislature may well
afford to leave anything else undone
sooner than to fail of that paramount
duty.
