The Raleigh Progressive Far

the farmers of the South about
what it calls the stock food
swindle. 1t says that one of the
most outrageous frauds now be-
ing perpetrated upon the Ameri.
can farmer is that of prepared
stock foods--common meal, bran,
ETC., with a little cheap sulphur,
salt, EPSON salts, pepper, salt.

gressive Farmer says further,
that some time ago, the chief
Southern contributor of one of
the farm papers most largely
circulated in North Carolina and
adjoining States, wrote an ex
pOsure of the whole miserable
fraud and sent it to his paper.

Sowing Spring Oats.
The Progressive Farmer.

VI 'ne SOIL, anu SO"lDS
small grain is the foundation of
successful farming. The best time
to sow oats is October 18th to
December 1st. There are no oats
that are specifically Winter or
Spring oats. Some varieties are
more easily killed by cold than
others. All, even the hardest,
are often killed when sown broad
cast or put in with a wheat drill.
The tenderest will stand the
hardest winter if put in with a
drill in the open burrows. These
are general principles. Now,
there is not enough small grain
sown in all the cotton counties
TO inaugurate a desirable rotative
system. Since tn e middle of
December the plows have been
standing still on account of rain.
Let every farmer sow all his
spare land in oats. He has until
the 10th Of March to do this
work. The sooner il is done the
better, provided the ground is
dry enough to break and harrow.
If you wish a good yield of heavy
grain, SOW the Appler OR Red
Rust Proof, Southern grown seed.
The Brest or ninety-day oats are
the earliest and we'll suited for
bottom land, for they will come
Off the first week of June, in time
for a corn crop. The Georgia
Grazing oats and other similar
varieties make much straw, but
the grain is light. The advan.
tage of planting the early varie-
ties is that they will ripen June
9Th to 18th, giving time enough
to sow cowpeas. Land that, with
the aid of 200 to 800 pounds of
fertilizer to the acre, will make
1000 pounds Of seed cotton, will
make % to 80 bushels of oats
and a ton and a half of peavine
hay. The cost of the two crops
will be about half the cost of a
cotton crop. Do not use ammon-
lated fertilizers with oats, but if
nitrogen is wanting apply so to
6O pounds of nitrate OF soda,
March goth to April 18th, and
u a smoothing harrow over the
land so as to cultivate the oats
and level the ridges. Mix 600
pounds of IA per cent acid and
400 pounds of Kainit and apply
$50 to 800 pounds to tie acre
with the oats. 1t is better 10

Doesn't Like Bryce.

Ottawa (ont.) Dispatch to the New
York Times.
The appointment Of the Hon. James
Bryce does not find favor among Ca
madam public men. They would have
preferred diplomatIst of the old
British type, trained in the service
from his youth
The appointment is looked upon
here, as, a step on the part of England
toward conceding the American claim
to the establishment Of new diplo
macy, made successful in London by
such men as Reid, Choate. Hay, Bay
ard aud Seward, Granted that Bryce
is one of the greatest pubIIcfsts of the
day, It is felt here that Canadian In.
teresls, which are growing more I'M
portant yearly, would have been safer
under an appointment from the regu
lar staff. 1t is recognized that Great
BritaIn's desire is to be a little more
than friendly to the United States,
and that Bryce's appointment will al.
lay the last lingering doubt Of this al
Washington. but the feeling is strong
in Ottawa that this friendship may
cost Canada too dear.
The Alaska boundary award and
the Newfoundland fisheries dispute
are for the moment hppermost in the
Canadian mind. and future diplomacy
will be watched with some anxiety. 1t
is true that there is every prospect Of
a Canadian being attached to the Brit
ish Embassy, which suggestion comes
from President Roosevelt himself, hut
such an attache will have little or no
say in matters of imperial moment
even IN those in which Canada is con.
cerued.

NEW YORK. Dec. 20. Now that
William J. Bryan has practically an.
noanced his candidacy for the next
Democratic nomination in an inter.
view given at Topeka, Kan. Democrats
here and throughout the east, who
have been conducting a propaganda in
his behalf, are ready to come out open
". Mr. Bryan is quoted as saying
"While have not yet announced
that / would be a candidate. have
not stated that would not be can.
dldate. Such high honor as the
presidential nomination is among
those things a citizen must not de.
cline"
Among Democrats Of certain aftilla'
lions 1t has been received With Joy.
The movement in Bryan's behalf was
started while arrangements were pro.
crossing for his reception on his re-
turn from his world tour. Bryan's
refusal to announce himself has made
1t necessary for his boom" to be kept
in the background.
The announcement is regarded as
coming at a happy time. Hearst is
reported to have said he viii not seek
the nomination. Throughout New
York State and in this city much has
been done, quietly to advance the
cause of the Commoner. With an OPP
portunity to launch a public boom
Bryan's friends believe sentiment will
crystalize so that delegation pledg.
ed to him will be secured
In New England excellent work in
Bryan's behalf has been done by a
coterle of Democrats headed by Alex.
ander Troup. Of New Haven, Conn.
Bryan clubs have been organized at
many places in New England. 1t is
their Intention to organize clubs
everywhere. Now that Bryan has de.
clared himself. this work will prob.
ably be taken up openly.

sides Of the river show falling OF in
