ROsengarten's.

Many Paleieh merchants visited the
Fayetteville street store of j. Rosen-
garten yesterday to inspect and watch
the operations Of the most remarkable
cashier and bookkecper that ever
came to Raleigh. II is the latest ana
most wonderful machine turned out by
the lJational Cash Register Company
and there is not phase of a mer-
chants business the condition OF
which cannot be ascertaihed at mo-
ment's glance.
This new cash register, with all the
improved but simple methods of ac-
counting which only merchant can
appreciate, tells the sales, both cash
and credit separately of each clerk.
also the total sales at any moment and
shows exactly how much cash should
be in each clerks individual cash
drawer. A printed record of every
transaction, either cash sale, money re-
ceived on account, money paid out,
charges made on books. or money
changed, and every transaction of the
day before Mr.. Rosengarten' eye at
any moment he wishes to see 1t.
Every merchant in Raleigh should see
this machine.

SILK CROPS FOR
THE TEST FARMS
A New Industry in North
Carolina.
PROMISING OUTLOOK
Present Widespread Interest in Silk
Growing Originated in This State.
Special Work Under Manage
ment of Gerald Nc
CarthY.

The present widespread interest in
silk culture in the United States dates
from the publication of an article on
the subject in the Bulletin OF the
North Carolina Department of Agri-
culture in November, 1901. In 1902
the department imported from Italy
70 ounces of silk worm eggs and dis
tributed them among some 200 farm
ers' families in North Carolina and
about 100 families outside of the
State. The first season, nothwith-
standing the fact that not one of the
growers had ever seen a silk worm,
yielded an excellent crop of high
grade cocoons, which were sold III
New York for SOC. per pound. Eacn
year since a crop of varying size, but
of uniformly good quality, has been
produced. Each year the North Caro-
lima Department has found a sale for
all the good, well-dried cocoonS Of
fered at $1.00 per pound. In no year
have they been able to secure as
many cocoons as the market de-
manded.
In practical silk-growing one person,
who may be child of IL or an octo-
genaran, unable to do any ordinary
to the produce of one ounce of silk
worm eggs. With plenty of easily ac-
cessible mulberry leaves to feed the
worms, and the necessary attention to
cleanliness and room, the silk pro-
duced by the worms Matched from one
ounce of eggs is about 40 pounds.
worth in the New York market $40.
The active silk season lasts but six
weeks-from about April 20 to June l..
During the rest of the year the worm
exists only in the egg state and re-
quires no attention.
For the time, material and labor re-
CURED silk growing is the most profit
able branch of agriculture open to the
people of the Southern States. 1t is
not, however, a get-rick quick scheme.
It is not recommended as a substi-
tute for any remunerative line Of work
now carried on, but rather as Il
special industry for the women, chill
dren and aged members of the family.
A plentiful supply of leaves of the
white mulberry to be grown on bushes
or in hedge form is an absolute neces-
sity for successful silk-growing. Sim
pie and inexpensive apparatus, con-
sisting of trays and shelves upon
which to keep the worms while they
are feeding are also required. These
any handy man or boy can make at
home at a very small cost.

The Departments Work.

For the last three years the NORTH
Carolina Board of Agriculture has dis
tributed each fall among the farmers
of the State 5000 rooted seeding
mulberry trees. The recipients We're
advised to plant these trees in orchard
form, 12x12 feet and use the plot as
run for fowls. Poultry and silk rails
ing go well together and make an eX-
cellent ll-the-year-round business.
A mulberry grove has been planted
on each of the test farms being oper-
ated by the Board of Agriculture in
different parts of the State. A silk
crop will probably be produced on
each of these farms next spring.
The Waldensian colonists settled in
Burke county have among them many
experienced silk growers. These col
onists have planted mulberry groves
from trees supplied by the State Board
of Agriculture 1t is expected that in
a few years there will be one or more
reeling and weaving silk mills opcr-
ated by these people.
Mr.. Gerald Mccarthy, State Botanist
and Biologist, who has charge of the
silk growing on the test farms in
North Carolina, and who began the
silk growing agitation, is perhaps the
highest authority OIL practical SILK
growing in America, and has met with
remarkable success and distinction by
his experiments, says that silk can be
produced in every county in the State.
The industry will probably allow its
highest development however, he
said, in the Piedmont section, where
soil. climate and other conditions are
all especially favorable to it.
