Youths Companion: Florence
Nightingale celebrated the eighty-sec-
Ond anniversary of her birth last
month. The things that were then
said about her effort to mitigate the
horrors of war do credit to human ma
ture, and illustrate again the truth of
the saying that evil is wrought by
want of thought as well as by want of
heart. Miss Nightingale was not more
merciful than others; she Was more
thoughtful. It was out of her thought
that some of the rules for civilized
warfare have sprung, and to her is the
credit due for aiding a new dignity
to the profession of the hospital nurse.

INFORMATION FrIETEREsT TO SILK
GROWERS.

Cor. of The Progressive Farmer. ? y
An excellent crop of Acocoons seems
to have been harvested by all whom
we supplied with silk r eggs this
year. The Department will endeavor
to have a buyer visit Raleigh during
the summer or fall to purchase CO.
coons. In the meantime growers are
advised to choke them carefully and
dry them out, as is explained ON pages
.27 and % of our Bulletin No. 181. The
dried cocoons, if of good quality,
should bring about $1.25 per pound.
Due notice will be sent you of the date
of the buyers visit.
There is likely to be a considerable
demand for eggs next spring at about
50 per ounce. But we cannot guaran-
tee this. We advise everybody to Sc
lect at least 200 of the best and finest
cocoons and from these raise one
ounce of eggs, but not more, unless
there is assurance of a sale for the
eggs in your own neighborhood.
Your attention is called to the pre-
miums offered for silk by the State
Fair. You will have a fair chance to
secure one or more of these. Copies
of the advance premium'l list may be
had by addressing G. B. benson, Ra-
leigh.
