Trees Take the Rest Cure.

All trees have a period OF. rest in
each year. With some it is in the
winter, with others the summer. The
time OF resting seems to be fixed by
climatic conditions, but, neverthe.
less the tree always undergoes 1t.
During this period it is virtually dor
mant or dead.
Take the evergreen or the north.
for instance. They are not really
green" during the winter months
which in the northern climatic is the
appropriate season for. tree resting.
The eyergreens generally retain the
greater part of their foliage during
the winter, but a close. examination
shows that it dies to such an extent
as to be really dead, and a large part
Of it falls off when the plants begin
their spring growth. The drying is
not peculiar to the foliage. The
branches and stem become as dry as
the foliage, and being. almost entirely
devoid of moisture, are little dama9.
ed by the winters cold.
In some parts of the tropics, how
ever, as in the highlands of south.
ern Mexico and Central America, the
summer is the resting time Of the
trees. The intense heat of the sun
dries up the earth, the trees drop
their leaves, the woody portions be-
come as dry as our evergreens in
winter, and the tree takes it's rest
until the autumn rains begin.
OF course, this rule does not apply
to a large number of tropical plants
which grow in moist jungles or
swampy places. They have accus-
toned themselves to their conditions,
but even they still retain the resting
habit, and at some time Of the year
relax in their growing and become
as near dormant for a time as cir,
cumstances will permit.

A. & M. COLLEGE NEWS.
(By Leander B. Johnson of Hender'

(By Leander B. Johnson of Hender-
son County,
The A. & M. College. Press club has
recently been organized for the pur-
pose of giving to the people of the
State something of the college news.
1t is hoped to give some idea of what
the college stands for and what it Is
doing toward building up rural North
Carolina in all her different industries.
On the-Hrst of this month students
moved into the completed wing of the
new dormitory. This was a desirable
change for the students who have been
quartered IN the little wooden dormj-
tories, or "shacks," as they are known
O the campus. 1t is hoped that the
next legislature or some patriotic citi-
zen will see the great necessity of
this building and will provide at once
means for it's completion. The wing
just completed cost $40, 100000; it &C
commodities 48 students. The Sec
ton is well lighted, heated. and fur
.rnished, nice bath rooms on each floor.
1t has all the conveniences of a mod
ern UP to date dormitory. This build
ing completed will accommodate 200
students.
Farmers of the State will be inter
ested to know that the agricultural
students have increased considerably
in number this year. Last years en-
rollment showed 264 agricultural stu
dents. This year the enrolment has
creased to 300 students of agriculture,
and many more will be added before
the year closes. The textile depart
ment of this college has increased 81
per cent over last year. AS the tex
tile industry is one of North Cardinals
biggest source of income, it IS evident
that the manufacturers are seeking a
better set of trained men. Efficiency
has come to have a greater. meaning
than before as is shown by the steady
increase in their different depart
ments.
Mr.. John E. Colt of the class OF
1903. is now full professor of literature
in the University of California and is
taking an important part in the noted
station at Puerside.
The State Fair association is max
ing great preparations for the COM
ing fair. Special interest in the fair
is developing in the A. & M. poultry
department. The different classes of
students now studying poultry are 60
ing to compete with the fanciers and
commercial breeders of the State. for

Selling Hay in Local Markets

selling Hay in Local Markets.
The most satisfactory method of
marketing, especially for the begin
ner, is to sell On the local market. In
so doing the producer and consumer
come into personal contact and a def
mite understanding as to the quality
or value Of the hay may be reached.
The question of grades, as they are
known in the city market, is elm
mated, and there is little need to dis
cuss grades or to sell hay on grade,
because the consumer is present and
can inspect the hay and form his own
opinion as to it's valre. Production,
of market hay is treated in Farmers
