Taft has evinced much more inter
est in his fight to break up the Solid
South than to carry out the tariff
plark of the platform upon which he
was elected. Before election he re-
peatedly affirmed h declaration OF
the Chicago platform for a downward
revision of the tariff. Since his cleo
ton and while the debates are going
on in congress, he preserves a most
discreet silence. He is evidently ready
to swallow any old kind of a tariff
bill.

field of alfalfa. The farmers Of
Pender county should take notice that
that this valuable forage plant can
be grown practically anywhere in he
county where there is natural drain
age and the soil is put in order. On
Mr.. Hands field Of less than two acres
he cut more than 1000 pounds val
ued at 40. In thirty days he will
cut announcer 1900, which will bring
another $40, and this he will keen
UP throughout the summer cutting it
IN all four or five times and making
thus on less than two acres $3.50.
Now one Of the beauties in the
cultivation Of alfalfa is the fact that
practically no work is required, save
cutting and hauling. One planting
Will last from six to ten years, and
