ALEALEA In THE SOUTH

To the many queries III regard to al
falfa we have of late generally given
favorable replies. In fact, with the re
cent experience with this crop it prom
ises to take a leading place among our
hay crops in all parts Of the country.
A plant that thrives from Minnesota to
Louisiana, increasing in production as
ii goes southwark, cannot fail to be OF
great Importance. Two and three crops
can be cut on It's northern limit. four
when we reach Georgia, and by irriga-
ton IN Louisiana, seven cuttings have
been made, and eleven tons Of hay Sc
cured per acre. Passing the fine farm
of Col. J. S. Carr, near Hillsboro, n. c..
a few days ago, we were pleased TO see the
fine appearance of the old alfalfa feius.
row about eight years old, but especially
to note two fields of the present sea
sons sowing just starting up from a
clipping and looking like a velvety lawn.
This farm is being devoted to alfalfa
hay as 4 money crop. The soil is the
typical red clay Of the Southern up
lands, and shows plainly that on all
these rolling hills the crop will succeed.
The farmer and mechanic. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 18??-19??, 1903-10-06
WHAT THE TOBACCO SLUMP
MEANS,

The tremendous slump IN the price of
tobacco, (caused by the determination of
the tobacco trust to exercise their power
to take this crop at less han the cost
OF Droduction) is more far-reaching than
is generally known. Their arbitrary put
ting down of the price of tobacco has al
ready transferred more than d million
dollars from the pockets ct the farmers
of North Carolina to the pockets OF the
trust. The Wilson Times thus sums up
the big loss in wilson:
Sales for August, 1902, $3.50, 542 pounds,
which sold for 1916, SOB Is, an average OF
$10.62.
SALES for August. 1903, eli ,975, which
brought $29, 5000, an average of SAC.
Sales for September, 1902, 6,126,2 92
pounds, which brought $719, $1,000, an
average of $l1.75.
Sales for September, 1903, 2~,730,3S7
pounds, which brought $13f, 1886, an
average of $4.S2.
The above shows quite a difference
in the sales, as also in the average. The
banks paid out in August, 1902, 1886, 1893 .88
more than they did this year, and $685.
1921 more last year than this, making
a difference Of nearly a million dollars"

PATRICK 81, WINSTON'S SPEECH,

Among other talented and distinguished
er States, invited to speak at the Re-
union III Greensboro, October 18th and
18th. was Hon. Patrick Henry Winston, of
Spokane, Washington, ex-Attorney Cen
eral of that State. He is a man of bril-
liant parts and would lave made a glow
ing address that would have stirred
all patriotic North Carolina hearts. 1t is
with profound regret that Mr.. Winston
declines. In his paper, Winston's Week
ly, he prints the invitation, and writes:
Il cannot go. But if 1 were present [
would say:
North C~arollnians: Hold fast to the
teachings and traditions of your fore
fathers. a century of inherited learning,
virtue and valor has made you, of all
peoples, the most homogeneous.
nowhere Is there a people with habits,
faiths and hopes so fixed. Nowhere is
there a people whose past is more glori-
GUS; whose future is more secure. Your
commonwealth is built upon imperishable
foundations; law, religion, virtue and
Ie~arnmg-these are its cornerstones. The
same spirit hat animate your fore
fathers to bear the flag of the revolution
at Gulltord Court House, that animated
your fathers to bear the banner of the
Lost Cause" at Gettysburg, still dwells
within your breasts.
Across a continent, from a State where
now lives a son of Zebulon b. Vance and
a son OF Patrick H. Winston, I nave come
to breathe once more the sweet air of
childhood and mlngle once more with
the companions of schoolboy days. !
love your State-lny State; l love it's
history, full of glorious annals; I love
its dead-matchless galaxy of greatness;
| love its living
There may be longer speeches delivered
at the great Reunion, but there will not
be one Of finer quality or from a heart
that loves North Carolina more devoted
ly. The whole State will regret Mr.. Win
ston's enforced absence. 1t is a far cry
from Spokane to Greensboro.
