give his report:

no COW peas have been grown TINS
year use 100 pounds Of cotton seed
meal broadcast, but When COW peas
have been grown this summer, # the
crop was reasonably heavy, they
should be taken off and no nitrogen
used. In the spring, however, II the
condition Of the crop seems to JUSTIFY,
it will be we'll to broadcast about SO
pounds Of nitrate soda per acre: 1t Is
possible thai the warm, humid
weather in the spring may induce rust,
otherwise there appears to be no rea-
son why the crop should not be a sue

I suggest the Red May variety,

planting from November 1st to De-
cember 1st.

GOODS TO CO UP
Southern Spinners and Commits
sion Merchants Agree on 1t
suits in An Agreement That There
Must Be Advance in the Price OF
Cotton Goods.
charlotte Observer


Philadelphia, Nov. 5.-Following
h conference held here yesterday
between the North Carolina spinners
and the Northern commission merch-
ants, a very strong impression was
found among commission men and
cloth and carpet manufacturers today
hat all cotton goods are to be sharp
ly advanced in price.
Charles Porter, one Of the biggest
cotton and wooden mill men in the
city, said today that all mills are run
ming very slowly on spring orders for
cotton cloth and are making no
money with the present high prices
for cotton yarns. 1.-The mills here are
paying from rs to 80 per cent more
for cotton yarns thar they were two
months ago." he said, Gin face Of
the higher market they are worrying
along hoping hat the advance in "a"
cotton will break and relieve the
situation"
A member of the firm of Robert
Mcgowan & Son, cotton goods manu-
facturers, said: 81 do not think th8
Southern spinners are making any
thing at the present high prices. Out
they are asking from rs to 80 per
cent more for yarns than seVera'
months ago and that naturally affeclS
our industry. The offerings Of cotton
God in the stores at retail may not
he raised in price this fall and VIII
ter, but if high cotton continues t'1
retail market may be affected mex
spring."

Take me back to the farm
Of childhoOOd's innocent plays,
From which great duties grew,
In manhOOd's later days.
Take me away from city life.
With all it's commercial toll.
Where never a foot can rest
Upon pure refreshing soil.
Take me back to the farm,
To the handle of pillow and hoe,
Whence great men, great minds,
And greatest characters grow.
Take me away from the dizzy hum
OF whistle, spindle and loom.
Away from the centers Of wealth.,
Ear from society's boom.
Take me back to the farm,
For a ramble among the trees,
And a rest upon the hillsides,
Mid Natures refreshing breeze.
AXE me ava from the city's
Congested tenement and street.
Away from the forlorn faces
That daily I must meet.
Take me back to the farm.
Among the flowers to roam.
With comrades Of early childhood.
Round the old plantation home.
Take me away from frenzied marts-
From the cities ceaseless trade.
Where ever-cOntinued worship
AT the shrine Of gold is made.
Take me back to the farm,
Fol a chase of fox and deer.
To ride the spirited horses
And drive the lazy steer.
Take me away from speculations.
Though golden-tinged they glow.
Where fortunes of men and nations.
Are forced to come and &c.
Take me back to the farm,
Where fruits and melons grow:
To rove the fields and forests.
AS in days of long ago.
's@' Fw - 81 fS E NJ asEIySlT TxTueFE.
0 take me away from everything.
Whose tendency leads to harm:
Take me back DER life again
Take me back to the farm.

PLOT TO SHAY ALFONSO
Anarchist Who Once Before Sought Kings Life Arrested Follow
 ina Discoveries.

Gilbraltar-Ferrer, the anarchist who was implicated in the bomb outrage at tke time of King AL fonso's marriage, was returned to Gib- raltar after having been deported from Algeciras. where he went with the in- tention, it is believed. of again at tempting the life of the Spanish king.
 Ferrer left Gibraltar several days ago for Algeciras where the king ar rived Thursday, but the Spanish police were notified of his movements and they immediately intercepted him.
 Messages from Madrid say that the bomb found in the royal gardens was not the mere hoax that the police tried to make out, but deadly internal ma chine. The authorities believe that a plot to exterminate the Spanish royal family was thwarted by the nar- rowest margin.

NEGROES ARE
 ORDERED OUT
Two Homes of Negroes Dynamited- Business Men Meet and Assure Blacks of Protection, But
 Many Will Go.

DeQueen.-As the result of the dy- namiting of two negro homes in the south part of DeQueen Sunday night, many negroes of this place are pre- pairing to leave, filled with alarm at the outcome of the warnings recently distributed in negro homes and al~ leged to have been circulated by white men, who have warned the ne groes to quit work in the hardwood lumber plant operated here by the Dierks Lumber Company. A meeting of business men, together with the sheriff, was held and at that meeting the negro residents were assured that they would be protected, but not withstanding, many are preparing to leave the coutnry. No arrests have been made as yet in connection with the dynamiting Sunday night.
 It Is reported that the negroes know who did the dynamting, but that they are afraid to give away the secret, fearing further danger.
 The homes of Jim Clardy and Boze Caldwell were dynamited between 8 and 9 o'clock Sunday night. One corner of the Clardy home was blown away and the entire porch of the Caldwell home demolished. But one person was injured, a negro girl, who suffered from gravel blown into one of her arms

Trade Extension Trip.

Eureka Springs-A big citizens meeting will be held here to com. plete plans for an excursion over the full length of the newly completed Missouri and North Arkansas railway lines, the first trains over which were operated this week The meeting is called by the Commercial Club, which sees great things for this popular resort in the Ozarks and other DOT tions of the state served by the line in the completion of the railroad.
 The excursion will go to Helena and from that city a flying trip will probably be made to Memphis Little Rock would also be included in the itinerary. The purpose of the trip is not mere pleasure. but is for the pur- pose of bringing the eastern and west ern portions of the state into closer commercial relationship. It is point ed out that when Chicago business men can see profit in a tour of dis tant Southern states that 1t behooves business men of west Arkansas to make trip across the state to get acquainted with the business inter- ests of East Arkansas.

Location Of Penitentiary.

Giving an unofficial opinion, Attor- ney General Norwood gave those op- posing the removal of the peniten- tiary to the state farm, together with the offices of the officials, something more definite to stand upon when he decided the state must first have an act repeating the legislative act of 1884, which states the penitentiary must be within five miles of Little Rock. The penitentiary board at it's next meeting, will probably take up the matter and rescind the order is sued at February meeting, ordering the white convic,s and the offices of the penitentiary to the farm as soon as stockades and other buildings could be erected.
