Between 1901 and 1912 the
price of cotton fuctuated between
9.03, the highest, and $50, the low
est, the price never reaching 10 cents.
From this it will be seen that for the
past twelve years the world has been
getting it's supply at unusually low
prices. In view OF the facts con-
tanned in the foregoing, many au-
thorities are of the opinion that the
efforts now being made in Africa and
elsewhere to compete with the South
in the production of cotton will not
amount to anything o. consequence.

CALL TO FARMERS.
Need Of Organization Emphasized
The Alliance the Only Oganizatior
from Which they May Reasonably
Hope to Derive Benefit.

In an address to the farmeLs OF the
State, some time since. | said: sit Is
gratifying to those who stood by the
Alliance in it's adversely as well as in
it's prosperity, ever faithful and true
to it's Declaration of Purposes, to feel
that the fruition of their hopes is so
near at hand-that the farmers OF
the State are again to be knit to-
gether by fraternal obligations. The
fires have been kept burning on the
altar, and a light in the window
awaiting their return. When the
farmers have again assembled in the
Alliance halls, and re-dedicated them
selves to its work, may there be no
looking backward, but only a deter
mination to push upward and for
ward until they shall stand in the
front ranks of American citizenship.
Ii the order has made mistakes here
tofore it has profited by them, and
their injurious effects have put it on
its guard against repeating them.
Since those words were first writ
ten last fall, hundreds of North Car
olinan's best and most progressive
farmers have been added to the list
of active members of the Alliance,
and to-day hundreds now are asking:
when can you send Lecturer Gates
to our county? Our people feel the
necessity of organization and want
the Alliance re-Crganized."
Within the last week | have had
reports of four sub Alliances being
organized, all of them with strong
active membership, and, without
waiting for the State Organizer.
commend the example of these good
people to the farmers of the State
In view of the widespread interest in
the Alliance and it's reorganization,
coming to me from the different sec
tions of the State, | suggest that
Saturday, Feb. 9th, be made a gen
eral farmers rally day for the ALI
ance Let the farmers of every neigh
borhood in the State meet on that
day at their respective school houses
or other places of meeting and get
together in organization. 1t matters
not if your Alliance has not met in
years, get together and reorganize it.

CandIemas and Its Traditions.
Washington Post, End.

TOdoy is Candlemas. Formerly cele-
brated both by the reigning family and
by the leading dignitaries OF the British
realm with much pomp and ceremony,
it is still observed as festival of consid-
cradle Importance at the Roman Catholic
courts of continental Europe Briefly
speaking, Candlemas Day u.s. according to
Christian traditions the anniversary Of
the presentation of Christ in the temple,
when ST. Joseph, old Simeon, and Anne,
the prophecies. are said to have walked
in procession round the holy building at
Jerusalem, carrying lighted candles to
signify that the promise Light to tighten
the Gentiles' had at length appeared. 1t
is Simeon who, according to the gospels,
was the author of the 'Nune Dimitis,"
which forms SO important feature of
the liturgy of almost every Christian de-
nomination.
Curiously enough, there was feast Of
candles held at Rome in honor of the
pagan divinities Ceres, Proserpine, and
Pluto at the beginning of February and ,
according to Pope Innocent VI the holy
fathers could not extirpate this heather
custom, so they ordained that Christians
should carry candles in honor OF the Vir-
gin Mary that had lately done service for
| Ceres" 1t became the custom to bless
| candles on Candlemas Day, and likewise
| to make offerings ofcandles to the church,
| customs that are still adhered to in the
Roman Catholic countries. And the use
| of candles at vespers ceases on Candlemas
Day until All Hallow's mass in the fol-
lowing November.
There is a popular superstition which
| prevails to this day in Protestant as well
as in Catholic countries, to the effect tina t
fine weather on Candlemas Day portends
evil to all agricultural industries. Bishop
Hall, in Candlemas sermon, says: eff
the feast be clear and sunny, it portends
hard weather-if cloudy and lowering, a
mild and gentle season." while the old
English rhyme, dating back to the Middle
Ages, runs as follows:
| The hind would as lief see
| His wife on her bier
| As that Candle1nas Day
| Should be Dleasant and cIaare

Table Showing the Prices of Cotton
for The Past Fifty Years, fr"m 1852

Windsor Ledger
So much has been said about the
probable effects of the high prices OF
cotton upon the spinners and Others
both in England and this country. it
may prove interesting to many to
know that prior to 1890 there was
only one year during the previous
forty years that the price ruled lower
than 10 cents, and at one time went
below 6 cents. Six, seven and eight
cent cotton has been the exception
rathersthan the rule, as the following
table for the past fifty years, copied
from Latham, Alexander & Co.'S pub

Candlemas Day was until quiet recent
ly, too, a great festival for the legal pro-
fessiOn, who used to make merry on that
day. Indeed, there was always a grand
entertainment on Candlemas in the Tenn
pie Hall in London, and in an old record
which | have before me and which deals
with the celebration of Candlemas in 1874
it is stated that the judges. the sergeants-
at-law and other men of law made a
great enter tainment in the Temple Hall
the judges, according to custom, dancing
round the coal fire, singing a merry
French song, while they paid fee of $50
to the company OF his majesty's revels
from the Haymarket Theatre to enliven
the evening blythe performance of the
comedy, "Love for Love-
| am sorry to say that this method of
celebrating Candlemas by the great legal
lights of the United Kingdom has become
obsolete, which is a pity, for it would
certainly be refreshing to see those august
creatures, the judges of the high court of
English judicature, headed by the octo-
.genarian and squat little lord high chan
cellor, and the majestic, stately and pom
derOus lord chief justice (who will be re-
membered in this country as Sir Richard
Webster) dancing giddily round a coal
fire in the Temple Hall singing "a merry
French song
1t is still customary ON Candlemas Day
to wind up all Christmas festivities, burn
the Christmas decorations of evergreen
and holly, and return to the plain fare Of
every day life, pleasantly interrupted by
six weeks of Christmas dainties The
lule log is extinguished at Candlemas, as
Herrick writes:
