THE EDITOR.FARMER.

The editor of the Wilmington Mes
senger is accustomed every now and
then to draw upon his wonderful
memory to illustrate successful farm
inc in North Carolina i'll former
years. Recently writing OF Intensive
Farming" he showed that it had been
done by the most level-headed farm
ers in North Carolina for half Il CEN
fury to his knowledge and cited this
instance:
'Littleberry Manning, OF Halifax,
father OF the editor of that excellent
weekly. the Henderson GOLD LEAF.
more than forty years ago made
three good average bales OF cotton on
one acre. He took the premium at
the Weldon Fair He made the land
very rich with home manures.
Mr.. Thad r. Manning cOrrects DR..
kingsbury as to the time his father
grew this crOp-lit was not forty
years ago, according to Editor Man
ming, who could not recOllect so far
back)-and adds:
This writer helped to cultivate
that cottOn-and he is not much
mOre'n forty years old. Three bales
to the acre was an exceptional yield,
to be sure but on several acres Mr..
Manning made two bales to the acre.
But his was highly improved and
we'll cultivated farm, the land very
fertile and highly productive, made
permanently rich by home made
manures. And in this lies the secret
OF successful and profitable farming
fewer acres cultivated and those
highly manured and we'll worked.
All of which leads us to remark
that when Thad r. Manning became
one OF the best editors in the State,
North Carolina lost Il farmer who
would have set II new pace III correct
and successful methods OF agricul-
ture.-NeWs and Observer
We thank our esteemed cOntem-
porary for its kind words and appre-
ciate the compliment passed, I'M
deserved though it is. Whether OF
not IL good farmer was lost to the
State when this writer took to the
newspaper business may not now be
determined. but We have some times

NORTH CARDINALS CREDITABLE

IN the grand military parade which
passed in review before the President
and party, who occupied conspic-
nous position in front Of the Audi
forum. the militia from the Old
North State made the most creditable
showing. The soldiers from North
Carolina reflected credit on their
splendid Commonwealth. In the re-
viewing party was Governor Aycock.
The most highly praised and much
talked of speech in the Auditorium
this morning upon the occasion of the
formal welcoming of President Roose-
Welt was the one delivered by Gov.
Aycock in his characteristic style.
! President Roosevelt. in the begin
ming Of his speech made the following
! remark: Il have but one complaint
/ to make: the Governor of North Caro-
lima has said many things that |
wanted TO say. But | will say those
things again" added the President,
and the audience laughed. As he
spoke be looked at Governor Aycock,
who sat within a few feet of him and
smiled senially. And this statement
was borne out by the Presidents re-
peatcd references to Governor Az.
cocks speech. The Governors greet
ing to the President was appropriate
