(Charlotte Chronicle.)

Mr.. f. Dana Durand, Director
Of the Census Bureau, has issued
bulletin on agriculture in North
Carolina which makes a pretty fine
showing for this State, the six
teentI in population and twenty
eighth IN land area among the
States. The bulletin gives us some
up -to-date geography to start out
with. 1t says the State rises from
sea levels to elevations in excess
Of 5000 feet in the extreme west
ern portion. Physically, the State
falls in thre main natural sub
divisions. The coastal plain occu-
pies the eastern and one-third Of
the State. The piedmont section
occupies all the central portions,
while the Appalachian mountain
ranges comprise the western bor-
der counties. The coastal plain sec
ton for a distance Of 80 or 90
miles back from the actual coast
line consists Of low, nearly level
plain, known as the flatwoods re-
gion. Within this region there are
numerous tidal embavments
sounds and bays and the stream
drainage consist of shallow chan

Prof. W. +. Massey, the we'll
known agricultural writer, was
asked about the best time for
spro1ting from stllmps. The en-
qnirer after knowledge went on to
explain that some say on the dark
of the moon in August. and some
say three days after the full
moon The good-natured pro
feSSor answered it III this way !:
Cut at any time III late summer
there will be less sprouting thar il
cut IN the dormant state. The
moon does not care when YOU cut
and has nothing whatever to do
with it. Referring to the tradi-
ton that everything must be done
only when the moon is right for

will be identified at the station by a
ribbon on her coat sleeve. She and
Jewell already have arranged for a
home at Omaha, which they will oc-
cupy as soon as the nuptials take
place.
The young woman has been en-
ployed for several years in one of the
largest manufacturing establishments
in the state, and in bidding her
friends goodbye, she said that she
was marrying for home and that
she thought that if the man proved
as he had represented himself she
would readily learn to love him. At
any event, she says, the experience
which she will gain will be worth
going so many miles to obtain.

FLAX 1HRESHED
under SNOW IS
NOT GOD seed
(1y Prof II. L. Boliy.)

FARGO, May 9.-From the very
large number of termination tests
which we have made at this labora'
tory, l have ascertained that there is
considerable probability that some
eopple may make bad mistakes with
regard to using weak flax seed for
sowing purposes.
Some hundreds of farmers have
written us letters and sent us samples
of the seed which they have threshed
this spring from fax which laid under
the snow all inter. Some Of these
samples have given very reasonable
examinations. Many others show
plainly that the seed should not be
relied upon for sowing purposes, even
though it appears to be bright and
plump Evidently fax seed which
was frozen while damp has had its
vitality destroyed.
I am writing this letter to warn
growers that they should test the
sprouting ability of such wintered
seed before buying it, or at least be-
fore using it for seed. While it is
late, we will yet be glad to do any
thing We can in the way Of germina-
ton tests. If you wish us to make
test for you, send in your samples
Immediately.

duct has reached its destination and

become Russian Caviar"
The deception is an innocent one
since the roe of the Mississippi stur
geon has been found to be quite
equal in delicacy and flavor to that
obtained from the surgeons of the
Don and Dnieper of Russia. The
Mississippi product, being new on
the market, however, sells better un
der the old familiar name.
For many years Russian fishermen
have made millions of dollars annu
ally gathering and preparing caviar
The sturgeon lives in the northern
stretches of the Mississippi in enor
nous numbers, but It was not until
two years ago that fishermen, siezina
the cue of their northern Russian
brethren, took up roe gathering as q
side line.
They have found it immensely pro
fitable, and the industry is fast tax
ing on good sized proportions.
