THIS WEEKS PAPER-SOME RANDOM
COMMENTS.
G.. W. BURKETT

Alfalfa bids fair soon to become one of the
most popular of Southern crops, it is already
of the most popular of Western. The article
by Mr.. t. B. Parker will prove helpful to our
readers who have decided to give it a trial.
Our "Cotton Growing Talk" this week brings
out the notable fact that to add one bale to each
stalk of cotton grown in North Carolina would
increase the value of the crop $50 10000 annual
ly. There IS no other crop with which there has
been such inexcusabe carelessness as to seed
lection and hope that these articles will cause
every reader to resolve now to select seed mere
carefully this fall
Mr.. Franklin Sherman's article reminds us to
say that he will next give an illustrated art-
Gle on spraying. This will appear within week
0 two.
We glad that Mr. Sanders has reported his
experience with bumper tobacco crop There is
considerable speculation to the increase in to-
bacco acreage this year. the probable course Of
prices, ETC., and in view of this we should like
have a symposium from our readers who are in
terested. Write your views on the tobacco situa-
ton Just as cotton farmers have been writing
as to the cotton outlook.
Mr. Archers report of the Iredell sheep-rasing
eNperlment-if it rightly be called an expcr-
ment-deserves attention. Of course, The Pro-
gresslve Farmer is interested in the NATTER be
cause these Iredell focks, as Mr. Archer says,
are the result of the series of sheep articles which
appeared in this paper.
Our poultry department this week is transfer
red to page flowing to the delay in getting
COPY for our Teachers Reading Course. And on
making up the second side" of the paper we are
much disappointed to find that the Course
is crowded out until next issue in spite of al
our plans to the contrary
Poe's poem 'Lenore' on page g. reminds us that
the manuscript copy of his "Ulalume' sold IN
New ork last week for $1,000. This amount
would have seemed godsend to the great genius
IN his life of want and trial. Even so the mother
OF Robert Burns said patheticay when they
Velied his monument: "Robbie asked for bread
and ye gle him stane"
Braxton's plea for marking the birthplace Of
AndreW jackson ought to be taken up by every
North Carolina paper, and an agitation begun
looking to the erection of monument We
commend the matter to our State Daughters OF
the Revolution.

 Men harangued the crowds telling them that the Emperor had foiled :hem and they. had come to act Men began building harricades i'll Nevsky
 Prospect and other points, using any material that came to hand and even chopping down telegraph poles. Fighting continued at various places, soldiers volleying and charging the moo. while the city was in a state of panic. Women were rushing through the streets seeking lost members of their families. while the troops charg- ed several barricades and carric@ them
 Father Gopon was hurried away at

 The Little Chapel at Narva Gate was wrecked. On the Kaminosto- viski island all the lights were ex- tinguished.
 Every officer wearing the uniform
 of the Emperor, who was found aic1e

 An official statement was promised

 Workmen and revolutionists expect good news from Moscow. and other big centers, where the troops are not of the same class as the guards regi-

 Gorsky, the Russian novelist. ex- presses the opinion that today's work will break the faith of the people in the Emperor. He said this evening to the Associated Press:
 Today inaugurated 9 revolution il Russia. The Emperor's prestige will be irrevocably shattered by the she'd ding of innocent blood. He has alien ated himself forever from his people. Gopon taught the workmen to be- lieve that an appeal direct to the Little Father would be needed. They have beer deceivd. Gopon is now convinced that peaceful means have failed, and the only remedy is force. The first blood has been shed but more will follow. It is now the peo- pie against the oppressors, and the battle will be fought to the bitter end"
 The military authorities hold a firm grip on every artery of the city. At day break guards, regiments, cay airy and Infantry, held every bridge across the frozen Neya, the network of canals which inteflaces the city. and the gates leading from the indus trial section, while in the Palace square, at the storm center, were massed dragoon regiments, infantry and Cossacks of guards.
 Barred from bridges and gates, men. women and children crossed the frozen river and canals on the ice by twos ad threes hurrying to .he Palace square, where they were to entrest the Emperor to hear them But the street approaches to the square were cleared by volleys, and Cossacks' charges.

Minister of the Interior, Sviatopolk- Mirksy presented to his majesty last night the invitation of the wOrkmen to appear at the winter palace this after noon and receive their petition, out the Emperor's advisors already had taken the decision to show firm and resolute front, and the Emperor's ans wer to one hundred thousand men, trying to make their way to the Pal ace square today, was a solid mass of troops who met them with rifle. bayonet, and sabre.
 Priest Gopon. the leader and idol of the men in his golden vestment. holding aloft the cross, and marching at the head of the thousands of work men, through Narva Gate, miracu- lously escaped the volley which laid low a half hundred persons.
 The figures of the total number of killed or wounded here, at Moscow gate, at various bridges and islands and at the Winter Palace vary. The best estimate is 500 although there are exaggerated figures placing the number as high as 5000 Many were accompanied by their wives ard children. and in the confusion. which left nc time for discrimination. the latter shared the fate of the men. The troops, with the exception of a single regiment. which is reported to have thrown down it's arms. remained loyal and obeyed orders. But the blood. which has crimsoned the snow today, has fired the brains and the passions of the strikers. and turned women, as well as men. into wild beasts and the c-y of the infuriated populace is for vengeance.
 The sympathy of the middle classes is with the workmen.

How MOIes Work.

Moles are usually actively at work
in the early morning or late in the aft
ernoon. 1t is not difficult to kill them
with pitchfork when they are work
ing, the animals being located by Oh
serving the movement of the ground
above them. If water is allowed to
run into the burrow and fill it the ami
NAL when present can be forced to
come to the surface to avoid drowning
and may be easily killed. The best
remedy for the damage done to lawns
and grass plots by moles is prompt
rolling with Il heavy roller. BY contin-
ued repetition of this the moles will be
driven away at least temporarily.
Moles have few natural enemies
Their food consists chiefly of worms
and insects that live in the ground, and
their presence in large numbers at any
place is an evidence of the abundance
of their food There is no doubt that
they do much good by destroying
many noXious insects. If it were not
for the injury done to lawns by their
throwing. up ridges of earth along
which the grass dies, or to gardens by
their loosening the roots of young
plants moles would be more beneficial
than harmful.-New England Home
