RALEIGn CAVALRY COMPANY.
Movement to Organize Troop, First in
State.

A movement has been started in
Raleigh and is meeting with much en-
couragement, which looks to the or
ganization here of q troop Of cavalry.
At present the military of the State
includes no troop of horsemen in it's
numbers, and it is felt by the pronlot-
ers that the organization of one here
would be the forerunner of several
other troops, which would in time con-
stituta a battalion or regiment of
North Carolina cavalry.
No steps will be taken toward MAX
ing the necessary applications for
membership IN the National Guard I'M
till the full quota of members has been
secured, but from the way in which
those who have been approached are
approving the movement, it is felt that
the organization Will be completed i'll a

Agricultural Department Considers
the Problem of Dry Farming.

Agricultural Department Considers
the Problem of Dry Farming.
1t is probable that in the near future
it will be possible to raise good crops
without either natural or artificial irri-
gation.s AS is apparent TO everyone,
even the most liberal system of irri-
CATION will not exhaust the available
arid and semi-arld regions of the west,
as even when irrigation has been APP
piled to its utmost limits there viii
remain some millions Of acres of fer
tile land that adjoins these reclaimed
wastes. The lands lie principally be
tween the one hundredth and the one
hundredth and twentieth meridians
and comprise areas over which there
is a deficient rainfall. with no avail
able neighboring sources Of supply
which might be brought TO them even
by canals.
But the department of agriculture
has other resources TO fall back upon.
If the customary crops require water
why not develop new crops that can
be grown dry? This, in substance. is
the problem the bureau Of plant in
dustry has set for itself. Dry land
farming or "dry farming" is the name
OF this unique scheme. Just now the
world Is being searched for Industrial
plants that can sustain life and mature
crops with a minimum Of water and
an elaborate life study Of all such
plants Is under way.
