Quite q number OF prominent far
mers were gathered at the court house
both yesterday morning and also IN the
afternoon 70 attend the Farmers lnsti-
tute. II was the first Institute ever
held here and the farmers did not real
ize just what they could learn by be
ing present for if they had the court
room would have been crowded. Mr..
W. j. McLendon, of Anson county, was
not able 10 be present SO only two
subjects were discussed at the morn
ing session.
! Dr. r Porter. of Rocky Point. one OF
the largest truck growers in the South
Atlantic states, made Il talk on The
Preparation and Fertilization Of Land
for Truck Crops" His talk was very
interesting md most instructive. Spe-
cial stress was laid on the Importance
of the proper drainage of land.
! DR. TAFT Butler, state veterinarian,
spoke on How Shall We Use Our
Corn Slower and Cotton Seed To Get
the Most Out of Them lie favored
,cutting the corn down instead OF pnil-
ing the ears and also the fodder. The
latter method he said was more ex-
'pensiye and the stalk which contains
a great deal of nutriment when cut In
the right state is lost His talk a;ong
this line will no doubt result in many
farmers following his advice.
! AT The afternoon session only one
talk was made. Professor +. &. Rel
Imerof the Agricultural and Mechanical
!College, Raleigh, made a most instruc-
tive talk on The Home Mixing OF fer
ItiliZers for Truck Crops" He urged
the farmers to mix their fertilizers at
home; that far better results could be
obtained than by bringing commercial
fertilizers for when this is done GER
Itain ingredients are bought that are
mot needed.
Professor Reimer and Dir. Butler will
go to Elizabethtown today, where an
institute win be held. The programme
will be practically the same as the one
here.
A committee composed OF Messrs.
George w Trask, Owen Martindale,
H. B. Humphrey, 4. j. Hewlett and
William Gregerson was appointed yes
lterday TO look after the interest OF
1.-THE work in New Hanover and endeav-
iOr to arouse general interest in II
lamong the farmers of the county.
Institutes from now on will be held
lin every county in North Carolina
tonce a year and IL is believed thai
much good will result from them.

M'CABE WRITES TO PARKER
Methodist Bishop Repudiates Address
to POIicyholders to which Com
mittee signed His Name.

NEW YORK, Aug. a.-A letter from
Bishop Charles c. McCabe of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, addressed to Alton
b. Parker, chairman of the executive COM
mittee of the international policy holders
committee, urges the committee to adopt
the administration tickets of both the New
York Life Insurance and the Mutual Life
Insurance companies. The bishop expresses
disapproval of an address issued by the
committee in which attacks, We're made on
the management of the New York Life In
surance company and the Mutual Life In
surance company. He says this address
was sent to policy holders with his name
appended to it, but the address was never
submitted to him and he protests against
the further expression in the name of the
committee of opinions and accusations with
which he has no sympathy and which he
is convinced have no sufficient justification
In fact The letter in part is as follows:
When l Joined the international policy
holders committee l understood that its
purposes were to consider the advice which
should be given to the policy holders of the
New York Life Insurance company and the
Mutual Life Insurance company in their
own best interests after obtaining all
available Information. l was, therefore.
surprised when an address was sent to the
policy holders with my name appended to
did not approve of the address or of the
other pages printed with 1t and purportlng
to be issued by the committee. / am quite
sure that the members of the committee
who may have personally signed the adj
dress cannot possibly approve the form
I'm which IL has been sent out or the in
temperate and vtuperative language in
which our alleged opinions are constantly
set forth by TIC spokesman OF the COM
mittee.
/ have considered fully the duty imposed
upon me and I protest against the further
expression In the name of the committe
of opinions and accusations with which /
have no sympathy and which | am con-
WINGED nave no sufficient justification in
fact.
The administration tickets of the two
companies include many gentlemen known
to me and many others of whom / have
obtained much Information. ! am satis-
| fed that Il is not possible to nominate tTus-
/ tees who, under all the existing circum-
stances, could better conserve the great
| interests of the policy holders than those
recently named on the two administrative
/ tickets. You are the chairman OF sub
cimmittee, charged with the duty OF form
! ing a ticket, and so far as-my voice and
vote are to be considered ] urgently rec
| ommend the adoption by your COMMITTEES
! of the administration tickets OF both COM
| panies and their unanimous election by the
| policy holders.

WILSON TO MEAT PACKERS
Secretary Has No Power TO Grant
Favors Under the New
Law.

WASHINGTON. Aug. Si.-secretary Will
son assured the representatives of the meat
packing interests Of the country with
whom he continued his conference today
that he had 70 authority to extend be-
yond the first of October next, the placing
of labels on canned or other meats pro-
ducts. He told the packers hstly that they
must be prepared on that date properly
to label their goods or they would not be
permitted to send them through the chan
nels OF interstate commerce.
The question was raised as TO the status
OF goods now on the shelves OF the whole
sale and retail merchants OF the country.
The secretary said It was manifestly inn
possible for the government TO inspect
them. The owners or holders OF the foods,
he suggested. would have TO take their
chances on selling them. One thing was
certain:J They could not be shipped from
one state TO another.
