WRONG TRACK.

"An epidemic of ultra conservatism"
is the way Dun's Review characteriZes
the present dullness IN business. This
would indicate that conservatism has
been pushed so far that it amounts to
q disease.
The Iron Age does rot think that
business men generally are acting I'M
wisely in exercising caution. 1t does
not believe that they are Influenced
largely by the theory that season Of
depression must come every ten years.
1t thinks it but natural that men buy
conservatively when prices show a
downward tendency OF the iron and
metal trades the Iron Age says:
But it would be idle to claim that
business has increased in the iron
trade or that the immediate outlook
is perceptibly better. On the contrary,
some branches which have been ac-
tive with the spring business have
been falling off. and the Independent
mills, notably in the wire industry,
are cutting to keep running fully. The
lin plate mills are very busy. the
leading interest having % TO 93 per
cent of the capacity at work. The
sheet interest is less favorably placed,
and concessions are being freely made.
During the spring 81 per cent of the
capacity of the consolidated works was
operating. Now it has dropped to 90
to 81 per cent.
The billet, structural and plate
pools are to meet in this city early
next month, but no radical action is
expected. The feeling is that the time
has long passed when Il lowering in
prices by agreement would have any
stimulating effect on consumption"

DANGER IN CHEAP CANDIES.
Glucose, Corn Starch and White Cla
Used fO AduIfernte.

Glucose, Corn Starch and White Clay
Used to Adulterate.
Cheap candles are not only often
poisonous, but are badly adulterated
with glucose. corn starch and white
clay. A sample recently purchased
contained nearly per cent of the
latter substance. Glucose or starch
sugar is now produced in enormous
quantities, both in this country and
in Germany, from corn or potato
starch. 1t is used chiefly in table
sirups, candies. as food for bees, in
brewing and in adulterating honey.
The process of manufacture is inter-
starch is boiled with dilute sr')Iuric
acid from 10 minutes to two hours,
according to the apparatus used; the
longer the action the greater the per-
centage of glucose produced. The eX-
cess acid is removed by treating the
solution with chalk animal charcoal
and by filtering. The filtered solution
is evapOrated to a sirupy consistency
and sent to the market under the
name of GLUCOSE" mixing sirup,"
etc. When evaporated to dryness the
solid product is known to commerce
as grape sugar" The main question
is whether candy made from glucose is
unwholesome? The answer is, it is
not, provided such glucose has been
freed from possible arsenical contain
ination through the sulphuric acid
used. the lime removed, and provided
the reprehensible practice of bleaching
with sulphurous acid has not been
followed. Candy made from glucose
may frequently be detected by It's lack
of sweetness and its extreme brittle
ness. Much of the stick candy is COM
posed largely of glucose, to which a
small quantity of cane sugar has been
added to increase its sweetness. A
great deal of palatable and harmless
confectionery contains the better quail

markets, the Northern people called
them blue berries" but in a little
while they became familiar with the
toothsome qualities of the big blues
and as they eat the best pies in the
world, according to our good friend
jim Hollowell, they talk glibly of
huckleberries, and sing the praises
OF huckleberry pie. While buckle
berries grow in various parts of the
united States, nowhere else do they
reach perfection except in Eastern
North Carolina. The truth is, this
part of the State is the garden spot
of the world, and Goldsboro is the
Eye of Eastern North Carolina.
More and more, our people are real
izing the truth of these statements.
While the Argus, is ever true to the
interests of the people, it endeavors
always to state facts in regard to the
conditions as they are. Consequently,
in making the statement that we live
in the finest section of country, the
Argus is simply saying what it believes
to be true.
In order to arrive at the truthful
ness of this conclusion, our people
have simply to sit down with paper
and pencil and enumerate the advant-
ages which this section enjoys, then
write out the advantages which other
sections of the country possess, strike
a balance, and see how the account
stands
In twenty-five years from today,
Eastern North Carolina will be rich
country, and Goldsboro will attain to
proportions many of our people little
dream of.

,ain cotton producer of the world.

main cotton producer of the world.
II is hard to conceive of a better on
nortupitv TO establish foreign cotton
nroducine competition than was af
fCrded during the four years Of ac
tual war and the demoralized condi-
tons that followed. Moreover. one
might as we'll "dart straws against
the wind" as to try to convince the
farmers en- nasse as to their duty as
a mass. The argument. if it is to
effect ANYTHING, must be addressed to
the individual farmer. He knows his
own wants and condition andShis limi-
his own opinions as any one you will
meet i'm a long summers day
The writer hereof made q circuit of
a few miles Con a wheel) only yes
terdav and was interested in search
ing ont the condition of the crops. He
was particularly DESTROYS to find out
about the corn crop Alas, there was
little positive evidence of a corn crop;
or rather there was plenty of negative
evidence of a small area in this cereal.
so far as could be judged from a road
view. A young farmer in the road
was asked "where have the farmers
planted their corn this year," The re-
ply was. ooh, well, they have most
ly planted little low, wet plains down
on the creeks and branches" There
were a few patches of corn, apparent
Iy, intended to fill our corners. But
the cottoni 1t was everywhere elsei
Field after field was cotton, cotton,
nothing but cotton. Maybe it is we'll
that the crop has such a poor start.
But of one thing there is no doubt
a big crop of cotton and a small crop
of corn have been planted in the cot
ton States-if we are to judge by the
facts as they appear in middle Geor-
gia. The farmers are saying very lit
tie about it: they are "sorter" ashamed
of it, as if guilty of doing it sneaking-
ly, in view of past experiences in MAX
ing scent cotton
Even now there is a great inquiry
for cotton seeds for planting-not for
planting over, as you might suppose,
at least not altogether, but for seed
of, early varieties to plant after oats
and wheat and truck crops.
Some will doubtless say that this is
"tale bearing" or telling secrets. and
that the tendency of such opinions
will be to bear the market. So be it.
1t were better to bear the market now
and discourage eXtravagant effort to
overproduction than to submit to the
bearing process after the crop has
been started and we'll on it's way to
maturity.

And treat me with contempt.
