TO the Editor: What did i learn at
the Farmers Congress at Raleigh?
First. ] learned if you wish any
reduction in railroad rates you must
get at least ten to go with you and
buy block ticket from your start
Ing point.
Second That the congress is no
proper place for resoluting as no time
is given for discussions and the reso-
lutions may or may not express the
stntin ents Of those in attendance.
Third. That most men know some
thing well but when one gets out of
Ills speciality and goes to speaku 6
ex-cathedra that what he says should
be taken for only what it is worth
and that is not much
think I learned how to can corn
aid tomatoes satisfactorily. The
speakers address upon the subject Of
canning was real helpful
Prof Kilgore's speech was excel
lent and timely and tended to teach
me that I could proftably apply larger
quantities Of fertilizers for cotton up
or poor land that I had previously
judged wise.
I now have an idea how to build
a stave silo, provided I had one hun
dred dollars to use for that purpose.
I learned that corn staves was a
profitable feed for some men and that
others esteemed it worthless as iced
and very poor bedding.
That prosperity generated energy
and energy properly directed brought
prospect That many more elderly
men attended the meetings that young
ones.
That a speaker should stick to his
subject at least, should prepare talk
upon the subject assigned and speak
uron that subject and that only
have attended these meetings so
often that a rambling spread-easle
talk does not strike me as it once
did.
If I did not learn it this time it
was brought to my mind anew, that
these meetings are helpful for al
studious farmers and a fine outing
FOR any farmer He will pursue his
avccation with more zest and enjoy
his farm more than to stay at home
forever.

In Touch With Best Farmers.

To the Editor: l find It very difn-
cut to mention the many vauable
things, learned while attending the
Farmers convention. A farmer, il he
pays strict attention and tries to take
all in and condense it will simply store
away a knowledge Of approved up-to-
date farming that many viii spend the
best of their days in accommodating
and practice; the being brought in
touch with the association of several
days with the most learned and sue
cassful farmers in the State will sure

fession. and will see what it means

To the Editor: The farmers meet
ing at the A. & NJ. College last week
was one Of the very best farm schools
that [ ever attended, and / certainly
wish more Of our brother farmers
could have been there and heard the
good things that were impaired at
that meeting for our betterment, and
among other things, 1t was impressed
upon my mind more fully than ever
before. that we should raise moro
live stock our cotton farms, en- nough
a least. to consume the most OF our
cotton seed meal with the rcughage
hat We should also grow on the farm,
there ting for one OF our most
valuable products two profits instead
Of one. as we would get the full feed
value Of the meal, which we can feed
as prOfitably as the other fellow, and
20 to so per cent. Of the manure value.
This feed will produce the best Of but
ter, beef mutton, etc, to supply our
home markets, which there Is q good
demand and q good profit Then we
save the expense Of the comm ercial
fertilizer bill, with our hom eInade
manure of which there is none better.
the freight bills and the hauling OF the
same to and from the railroad sta
tions which are quite an item.
Now, if the other fellow can buy
our meal to make butter tn the North
and the WeSteFner to make beef IN
the West. and then sell their products
back to US, which they do, and at
good profit, too, after paying the
freight two ways surely then. it is
getting time for we farmers that raise
cotton to take notice. VIII we?

TO the editor: In reply to your re-
quest Of recent date. asking me ~ hat
/ Learned at the Farmers Congress
in Raleigh l wish finally to say that
l have attended about all of those
meetings for several years and feel
that | have been greatly benefited by
them. and have very much enjoyed
them. / have learned to love farm
life more and more as l study the life
of a class of people who sustain every
other class. We are not only bene-
flied by the able discussions Of pruc-
teal farmers, but we are also greatly
helped by touching elbows with our
brother farmers, becoming acquainted
with each other, exchanging ideas.
etc. 1t is a great surprise to me that
more of our farmers 90 not attend
these meetings and receive the insplr-
alton of such meetings.
I was asked by prominent lawyer
Of our county few days ago, Why
was it that more Of our farmers do
not attend these meetings? He said
he felt it his duty as a lawyer to at
tend his meetings.
May the time soon come when wa
as farmers. shall exalt our calling.

QUEENS BUILDING ACTIVITY

That the suggestion recently made by
Ralph Peters, president of the Long Island

the steady influx Of new population into
Queens. is being acted upon is shown in
the report on operations in the local Bu-

last month
While there has been a great decline in
building activity in every other borough Of
the city recently. as compared with CORE
spending periods Of last year. the loss in
Queens is slight Plans were filed last
month for 349 buildings, valued at sl4846aa

which permits were issued in the last nine

tion OF private dwelling houses and. the
steadily increasing cost Of these homes
In Flushing, Malba, Whitestone and prac-
rically all Of the Sd Ward dwelling houses
exceeding $4,000 in cost have been erected.
while an average capital investment of

OF transactions in the auction room last
week. Some valuable parcels were among
the offerings, and the prices obtained for
them We're pleasing to the sellers. Joseph
P Day several weeks ago, when asked for
an opinion, said that there would be live
ly fall and winter campaign in the realty
field, that business pointed to it, and that
d greater interest was being taken in the
purchase of or in the investment in real
estate by the wage Garner than ever be
fore. Asked yesterday whether he consid-
cred the present activity simply a squirt,
Mr.. Day said:
I was criticised by a great many In my
own profession because of the opinion ex-
pressed regarding a strong fall and winter
realty market. I. however, could see moth
ing at the time I made the statement, nor
do 7 see anything now. to interfere with
that condition. With the return Of the peo-
pie from their vacations the demand for
private dwellings, is increasing, and this,
too. in the face Of the building Of large
apartment houses throughout the city,
great many of them to be occupied by those
who formerly rented houses.
Again people are taking more interest in
living conditions They see the great i'm
provements that are being made in all
parts of the city to meet the demands of
increasing population and to provide for the
increasing commercial life. and they are
not waiting until they are forced from their
localities by these two strong tides. So
many opportunities are being offered to
them TO obtain homes of their own on good
terms that they are figuring how much
they have paid and are paying III rent. and
why this should not be put into home of
their own
All these conditions operate in favor of
the real estate market, as can be seen
by my advertisements for the sale of prop
erty There are excellent opportunities in
all parts of the city for the small in
vestor; by that 1 mean the one who can af-
ford TO pay down 5000 and carry mort
gage, part Of which can be paid off by
what was formerly paid in rent. For the
big investor there is no time opportune
as the present as the speculative mind is
not working so rapidly as before.
Interest in the sale of Hunts Point prop
erty has brought hundreds of inquiries for
booklets and other information into my Of

these is idle curiosity; they are all inter-
