Of
CHINESE IN
AMERICA
PIaCardS are Circulated Showing
Chinese Idea of the Situation
In this Country.
Bv Associated Press.

washington. Sept. 13.-The depart
ment of commerce and labor has re-
ceived from a United States consul in
China a copy Of placards that have
been distributed in various provinces
to stimulate the boycott against Amer
lean goods.
The placards are about four by one
and one-half feet and are covered With
crude drawings showing American po-
Iicemen clubbing Chinese and hanging
them by the queques. Underneath
the picture is the statement: This is
the way Chinese are treated In the
United States" The consul, whose
name Is withheld, wrote that the de-
partment viceroy Of his province is
doing all he can to prevent the dis
tribution Of the offensive placards and
has offered large rewards for the
names Of the persons responsible. He
adds that IN spite of the campaign
conducted by the anti-foreign extrem-
lists, the boycott IS waning.

New Orleans. Sept. 1S.-While the
fsct that today there was again large
number Of new cases OF yellow fever
81 did not give the authorities serious
concern.
The reason for the sudden jump In
new cases within the past four or five
GAYS has been the cause Of much
speculation and considerable disap-
poinment on the part Of the public.
The disappointment comes largely
from the fact that any increase is
bound to have a discouraging effect
elsewhere and therefore prolong the ca.
sstence of ouarantines.
Various reasons for the increase are
suggested. among them being that the
musicians are now turning in cases
on the slightest preteXt owing 10 the
example recently made Of one Of theii
number. but the federal authorities are
inclined 30 the belief that the increase
caused by the rapid multiplication

WOULD ENJolN CITY
FROM ISSUING BONDS

Gadsden. Sept. 13.-R. A. Mitchell
and associates fled late this after
noon an Injunction In which they have
asked the chancery court TO enjOin
the CITY Of Gadsden from issuing and
selling the S100. 900 water bonds voted
al the election In July.
This injunction is asked on the
ground among others that the act
under which the bond election was
held Is unconstitutional in that the
same was not signed by the president
of the senate as required by law.
Other constitutional defects are point
cd out. This action probably stops
the sale OF bonds and adds further
complications TO the water works
muddle.

A decided Improvement in the vel.

noticeable yesterday. Reports sent TO
the state Board Of Health headquar-

cases and no deaths. The number Of

of the cases under surveillance for the

pronounced as fevers Of other types.
As a result the state health officer

During yesterday three patients we're

This shows the number Of cases dis
charged since the outbreak Of fever
in Pensacola to be seventeen, and
leaves only thirteen cases under

Messrs. Editors The farmer who
lives on the first farm out of the city
or town should not be criticised too
sharply if Lis work is not so well ad-
vanced as is the case on farms three
or more miles out. These distant
farmers as they go to and from mar
ket are stimulated by the evident
hustle of the best and most progress
sive farmers living along the mar
ket road. The near-to-town farmer
sees little of this because he passes
from home right into town.
The writer is so situated. L have
wished long for a thrifty, VIDE
awake, do-things-on-time kind OF a
neighbor, one who would be on time
with all farm work so that he could
set the pace for me. Not having
such a neighbor, I find it profitable
to frequently drive out some miles

some 80 to 100 gallons daily. He
pays 10 cents per gallon to his neigh
bors for milk, and they find it profit
able to sell at that price.
Now if a Northern man can come
into North Carolina with 5000 IN
cash and succeed as Mr.. Rowland
has, then it seems to me that no
farmer can run from our State to
find better field.

PRACTICAL POULTRY TALKS.

which may be of interest to the read
ers of the poultry column, especially
the ladies, who seem to be the prin
cipal poultry raisers in the "Sunny
South" The item was taken from
one of Charlotte, N. c., daily papers.
Zone of the prettiest individual
poultry exhibits seen in Charlotte in
some time arrived at the Southern
Express Office yesterday afternoon
assigned to Mrs. @. O. Moore. The
birds were purchased by Mrs. Moore
from Mr.. @. @. Randleman of Ram
seur, whose reputation as a poultry
breeder is known over several States.
Mr.. Randleman'se birds are all Ply
mouth Rocks. and among the 200
that were purchased by Mrs. Moore
is a coop containing eight hens and
one cock with value of not less
than $1OO. and each of them have
been awarded the first prize at sew
eral poultry shows.
"Mrs. Moore has always been a
chicken fancier. She has more than
400 young chickens from this years
Matching. and with the addition OF
more than 100 in her purchase from
Mr.. Randleman. she will have total
of more than 500 spring chickens, as
well as a large number OF grown
fowls. The purchase from Mr.. Ran
dleman includes all of his incubators
and brooders."
In the above / have briefly related
one or two of the Standard require
| ments of the B. P. Rock, another
great point is color. which should be
grayish white with blue bars across
each feather. which should be even
ON all parts of the plumage, and the
male and female should be exactly
alike in color. and those who are
breeding Rocks know how hard 1t
is to do this, as nine times out OF
ten the cockerels are light and the
pullets dark and. in fact. are some
times almost black. Such birds
would stand no chance IN the show
room, and the only way to produce
such birds is to go "agin" nature
and double mate; that is. all the
dark hens and dark males to produce
cockerels, and all the very hghtest
hens and light males to produce pul
lets; the cockerels from the pulle1
ward are worthless and the pullet'
from the cockerel yard are only n
for table. "UNCLh 1O.
