Agriculture in Virginia.
(By the Associated Press

Washington, d. c., July 3.-The Cen
sus Bureau today issued a report on ag-
riculture in Virginia in 1900 showing
that there are 1856 farms in the old
Dominion State with total valuation of
S271 Sis, 200. The value of farm imple-
ments and machinery was 1891 ,0l0 and
of live stock $42,026,737. The total value
of farm property in Virginia is returned
at 1923, 515,977. The total value of the
farm products exceeds that for 1882 by
105 per cent. Over 70 per cent of the
farms of the State are operated by white
farmers and 81 per cent by colored farm
ers. OF the white farms II per cent own
all or a part of the farms they oper-
ate and 50 per cent of the colorcd farm
ers have a similar interest. Over 50 per
cent of all tenants are cash tenants.
Tobacco was grown in 1899 by 1872 farm
ers, who obtained from 1S4,324 acres q
yield of 1872 1884, 900 pounds. The average
yield per acre was 667 pounds.

NORTH CAROLINIANS AT THE
SUMMER SCHOOL OF THE SOUTH
The Largest Gathering of Teachers Ever AS
sembled in Dixie. The North Caro-
lima Teachers Organize
Especial to News and observcr.)

Especial to News and Observer
Knoxville, Tenn, July 3.-Probably the
largest gathering of teachers ever gath
cred together in the South is assembled
here at the University of Tennessee in
attendance at the Summer School of the
South.
There are teachers here from all sec
tons of the South, and many from the
North and West.
The total enrolment is $3.50.
1t is needless to say that the results
from this summer school will be far
reaching and beneficial to all sections.
Besides having the greatest number of
students, the Summer School of the
South has the best faculty ever secured
for any similar institution south of
Mason and Dixons line, and the equal
of any perhaps otherwise located.
The students of this summer school
are a representative body of teachers
from the South at large, and Knoxville
is at present the centre of Southern edu-
cational spirit.
Every Southern State is represented.
and it may be needless to say thai North
Carolina, TO use a familiar phrase, is in

claiming the fact that just across the
borders of Tennessee lies the noblest

GRAIN MARKETS EXCITED
Heavy Rains Interfere With Wheat
and Dat Crops.
INDUSTRIAL SITUATION UNCHANGED
he Kentucky and Illinois Miners Announce
hat They viii Not Strike, A Change
Expected in The Anthracite
Strike Next Week.
(By the Associated Press

New York, July S.-Bradstreet's tomor-
row will say:
weather and crop conditions have
peen first in evidence this week, diverse
influences affecting different sections to
heip or depress trade. Throughout the
northern half of the country from the
Atlantic coast to the Rocky Mountains
except in some parts of the Northwest
cool, wet weather has injured or arrest
ed crop development, hurt retail dis
nlbution and checked recorders and fall
business with jobbers. On the upper
South Atlantic coast, crop conditions
have been favorable and trade has been
measurably helped thereby, but extreme
~ not weather in the middle Gulf sec
ton is complained of as affecting crop
and trade conditions. Warmer dry
weather is imperatively needed in the
northern and western sections of the
country if summer trade is to reach it's
full development. Eastern cities note
the check given by the weather to re-
tail trade and the summer order bust
ness.
Grain markets have been considera-
bly, excited this week by the heavy and
almost torrential rains reported in the
central West Winter wheat harvesting
has been interfered with, the oat crop
had been damaged and the growth of the
corn crop has been arrested. To Just
what extent injury has been done re-
mains for warm fine weather to disclose.
The situation has not changed ma
terially in industrial lines Signs of the
soft coal strike in Virginia and West
Virginia failing increase and a number
OF mines have resumed. The Kentucky
and Illinois coal miners announce they
will not strike and thus violate their
contracts. The anthracite strike drags
on, but change is looked for next
week, the soft coal miners and coal car
rying roads are reaping a rich harvest"

RESALE OF THE FAYETTEVILLE
COTTON MILLS.

Under and by virtue of a decree (the
former sale being set aside) of the Su-
perior court of Cumberland County, N.
c., made at the May term, 1902, in the
Bank of Fayetteville V. Fayetteville Cot
ton Mills, ct ais. the undersigned COM
missioners, therein named, will offer for
sale at the market house in Fayetteville,
~ c., Tuesday July 22nd, 1902, at u
o'clock NJ, TO cash, the entie plant of
the Fayetteville Cotton Mills.
These mills are located in and near the
city of Fayetteville. The factory con-
tains 3100 spindles and is run by water
and steam power combined. The plant
is located upon about thirty acres of
land and besides the mill and buildings
connected Herewith and superintendent
residence, there are eight tenement
houss all in good condition, and the
mill pond and race. The mill is equipped
with a steam plant, so that it may be
run with either water or steam. The
product Of the mill has always been first
class. In addition to the factory tract.
there will be sold at the same time about
179 acres of land, including what is
known as Mimm's Mill Pond located
about one-half mile above the factory
but is a separate and distinct tract of
land, which is not essential to the OPP
GRAFTON of the mill. The Mimm's pond
tract adjoins the Ashly- Bailey Silk Mill
property, and lies on both sides of the
main line of the Atlantic Coast Line rail-
road, just southeast of the city limits.
Fayetteville is a competing point, hav-
ing rail and water transportation, and
is in the midst of the cotton producing
section, all of which is of great ad-
vantage in manufacturing. Thorough
inspection of the property is invited, and
correspondence from interested parties
will be promptly answered.
The purchaser will be required to
make deposit of $500 cash at the sale.
