Our Tobacco Market. he tobacco growers of Pitt county certainly very much in their own light when sell their best tobacco at home to these men going from farm to farm trying to buy wrappers and bright tobacco. Some listen to the offers mode the traveling buyer, let him have tobacco and are with all common lo k on hand. Then Hi ego to sell their common stock they can get nothing hardly for it. If a farmer desires to get a good average for his crop, and all do. he should b. all means save his good tobacco to sell with the common. ling off the best grades at home as we have Indicated above proves not only a loss o the in the end, but it is treating the home market very unfairly and unjustly. Some men who have privately sold off the best bring the common grades to market because they do not make as good averages as the men who sell their crop through on the warehouse floor are ready to com- plain of the and of the market, when if they had brought any tobacco worth any thing it would have brought as much money as their Neigh- tobacco planter in the county to be interested in the Greenville market.

Some of them paid dearly this kind of experience too. This kind of i in the home market They can see their sold and know just what it Is and can take it up If not Greenville can pay just as much for to- b as any other market- here is as good a corps of buyers here as can be found anywhere they have found out that this county makes the tobacco they want and they have here to your home market for It If the planter wants the home market sustained he should stand by It.

His firm have large orders be with an eye to business realized the advantages offered as a market Hence his To Mr. Bray we heartily say, welcome, to others who contemplate coming we say in behalf of the tobacco interest of Greenville we extend to you a cordial invitation to come. Mr. Henry P. of Hen- came down on Tuesday to make Greenville his future home- Mr. firm of which he is a member, are among the largest wrapper dealers in the country. As we predicted sever- w ago, we have the tobacco and buyers are coming here to get it. Mr. is quite an addition to our his hand some appearance and liberal bidding will have a good effect on sale- Cooper's Warehouse, at Hen N. C., has been making the past week, fine sales of new bright tobacco. All bright to- free from green is selling at Cooper's fully as well as at this late last year. Try with a of bright tobacco. We that a many farmers in the Eastern sec- who are fortunate Laving good of tobacco are closing out their crops at home to drum- from the interior markets at averages from to around excepting the tips and Now to the farmers who have good to and who anticipate a home sale, give us your attention for a few moments and we will or to you that it is very much against interest to make such a sale. To begin in the first place, we will say that an offer from these drummers should be sufficient evidence to convince you that you are not getting worth for your t if you sell it at barn or pack house, because these are in a position to be accurate in the estimation of the present future value of your tobacco. You are not be- cause you are at home attending to your farm duties while they are almost daily on or in with the market hence are prepared to price your co at very near actual worth. Mind you if you price it to them at what it is worth, they don't buy until you reduce prices to that extent that they know there a profit in it for them. Oh well some one may say, I've got my price fixed and if I get it then I am satisfied. Who has worked for this tobacco T Who is it that has bowed down under the searching rays of the hot June and August sun to keep the worms from eating it up Who is it that has spent the many lonesome weary nights keeping up the heats that it may be cured well and command a good price I Is it the man who buys it No, it is the farmer that has under- gone all of the drudgery and it is he that should get U the re- out of it is for any one. Oh well again some one may say that purchases are frequently made in the try in which the farmers come out ahead in the trade. My friends stop a little and think that if this were not the case and the farmer was the loser every time it would not be long before the country speculator would have to in his shingle- These bargains are allowed some- times in order that better ones may be made in the same com- For an instance if Mr. country buyer has an eye on a certain crop in a community that he wishes to purchase and can't do it at the prices he would like, he can very easily spot a small lot of tobacco in the same that is much inferior to the one he wants but which in the estimation of the parties owning the tobacco is the same or very little difference. He goes and offers this man who owns the small lot less than what he ling to pay for the large lot. The lean sells, a day is and the farmer delivers the tobacco and sees it sold at a con loss to the purchaser, firm- gets his money and g es back home congratulating his shrewd judgment in trading. The news is of course spread of h w and for what sold. The man who owns good to I ears of it. He gets strongly the to sell at home. In a few days he is tied to see the same drummer and the loser on his neighbor's co drive up and want to stay all night or get dinner with him Of course he is welcome, for then the farmer wants to make a sale of his tobacco. When the subject is approached the drummer pats on a long face and looks awfully out of shape for buying. He tells all about how ever so much he lost on his neighbors tobacco, was about the same tobacco as his and that he had rather he would ship it to his house. Says he will him as much as he can get else in world and lots of other just such stuff. Meanwhile the farmer gets move anxious ever to sell- He offers to take the same as he gave his neighbor, after consider- able parleying the trade is effect- ed. But now the scene changes. of appointing a certain day the f see the tobacco B he is told to carry it down an writes the house to pay the farmer his price when deliver- ed which is done, and the farmer never knows what his tobacco brought. After he is at home the drummer comes in, puts it on the floor, sells it and then congratulates himself on his but the purchaser's profit. My friends instances of of this kind is the unwritten part of speculating on tobacco in the country We have been in some way connected with tobacco ever since its first introduction in the eastern section are acquaint- ed with a great many of the fakes that are employed by country buyers. Of course there are some who buy tobacco in the country that are not guilty of any such doings. There are a great many who have lot money heavily right here in Greenville by buying in the country. But where a few have lost there are scores that have made money out of it and hence the farmers as a whole are worse if they had never sold any of their to- in the country- Drummers from other markets can afford just at this time to buy a few crops of j our tobacco, even at a loss, for by I that they may possible induce a j few to ship them some tobacco otherwise they could not get. The day for shipping co from Eastern Carolina to Hen- Oxford and Richmond is about past and when the farmers thoroughly understand the true inwardness of selling in the try they will put a to that too. Try Cooper, at Henderson, with j some fine white tobacco and he j will please you- Send your to- where you can get the cash for it. Cooper is always OF TO The N. C.

So if yon are not go- to read the bulletins and other publications, do not ask for them. These publications costs a great deal of money, and the Station can afford only to put them where they will be If you really- desire to receive and read and by them, you will be cheerfully with any past and all future issues, if you write to Dr. H. B. Battle, tor, Raleigh, X. C, for them. An Example of the cost of some of Experiment Sta- bulletins, let us look at Bulletin Culture of Orchard and Garden which is just from the printers, and is ready for issue now. There are largest tin the Station yet published. Best Agricultural is the next in point of size, and has pages. The edition of M is 14.300 copies. The paper necessary to print this number is l- reams, and weighs pounds, or over S 1-3 tons. If this paper were spread on the ground one thickness, it would cover an area of square yards, or about acres. If the separate sheets of the entire edition of tip bulletin were put end to end, they would extend a dis- of yards, or from Raleigh Va-, to a straight line. Depth to Plant Wheat. The result of an experiment made by the N. C. Agricultural Experiment Sta- at Raleigh to test the best depth to plant wheat is as The average yield per acre when plated at a depth of two inches was 34.5 bushels; planted three inches deep, it was 33.1 bushels per acre; four inches, 23.7 bushels per acre. It will be seen, therefore, that the decided preference lay with the three inch planting. In this teat, the seed was planted very late, on the 24th December, after turnips had been taken off the land. The depth of planting was carefully ganged by a dibble. The best stand on the following 28th March was noted on the shallow planting, and the more scattering stand on the deep- est planting, plants on last were almost as large and as the others. It is probable that with an earlier sowing the result of the deep it planting- would bar bean more ii hf .- d This is the title of a lamed by the K.

The questions involved are not neglected, for every practical is baaed scientific facts, and a of one involves a knowledge of the other. All stock feeds are not the same in quality; some are richer in some ingredients; than These ingredients when eaten in food act differently in building up the body. Some make bone, some make host and U tree. Foods, therefore, vary value for purposes. the may not wholly be available to the A portion of a certain constituent may be easily digested, while the other part may pass entirely through and go off as waste. If the is not served, it is really an absolute waste. The portions of the various be determined by a- tests with animals, while the constituents must be carefully chemically, actual feeding it has been ascertained what quantity of I digestible constituents is needed for different purposes of feeding to pro- duce fat. or growth, or sustain vigor when worked. In this way we can lay down a rule for feeding animals, and knowing foods we have at hand and the indigestible proportions, it will t. combine them according to the desired rule. To simplify and ex- plain the subject thoroughly in a plain, practical way. is the object of the above bulletin, which is written by B. W. gore. Assistant Chemist. North Carolina has. according to the last Auditors returns. horses, . mules. cattle, and hogs. There is no question but that vast quantities of food are wasted an- improper feeding. If we suppose that fifteen cents per month is so for each animal, and is entirely within reason, we have tho total of per year, which is approximately one-sixtieth of the as- value of the total real and per- property of the entire State.

He will never allow a foolish calf to betray him into a passion or display of brute force. not allow the calf to suck the whole hand, or a single linger, but placing the palm of either hand over its nose, gently bring it to the milk held in a convenient sized pail in the other hand By separating the fingers, hold back the sides of the tongue and insure the entrance of milk as the calf sucks. If the milk is warm there will less trouble, then give the calf more, or less, of the two fingers, I according to success in keeping it ; in the milk. When the calf is do- well the fingers will scarcely be i touching its tongue or lips.

Soon will be the time when stock- owners can make some valuable trials I for themselves in testing the value of advice given for winter care of stock. Of two or three milch coats try giving one a comfortable stall well lighted and j ventilated without holes for cold drafts or rain to enter, and keep her dry and clean. Turn the others off in the usual way. and compare food eaten and milk and re member that there is in the stall a compost worth over five-sixths of all the fertilizing elements in the food, and all well preserved. Try other stock in the same way, and It will be found to pay well in growth and compost E. Emery, N. C. Experiment Station. QUESTIONS ANa REPLIES. The Station will be glad to receive any question on agricultural topics any one may desire to send. Address all questions to the C. Agricultural Experiment Station. Raleigh, N, will be written as early as by the member of the Station staff most competent to do so. and, when of general interest, they will also appear in these columns. The Station expects in this way, to enlarge its sphere of usefulness and render great assistance to practical farmers.

Cotton seed is not regarded as good food for swine. have fed cotton seed meal to a pig until sick, and there was less growth than from a litter mate without cotton seed meal. The pig re- covered its health, but was stunted. The Texas Experiment Station has made some decisive experiments with cotton seed. fed with corn to pigs, and in every ease fatal results were found after six or eight weeks feeding on the cotton seed ration, but pigs that passed the ten days, at which others sickened and died, seemed to be not liable to at- tack. The cotton seed meal was fed raw, boiled and roasted, with and water as wanted. The boiled seed was less dangerous than the other forms, as indicated by a lower death rate among the pigs to which it was fed. It may be that the bulk of the food you propose, or some counteracting compound in it, may overcome the toxic agent of the cotton seed- our friend doubtless speaks from ex- and if he has fed this ration largely, you may have the assurance of his practice if none of his stock died while so feeding. It will at least be well for you to know that cotton seed is dangerous, so as to be on the watch for dangerous symptoms if you feed it. But why reed an article in which lurks You have other stock which can use the cotton seed in rations and it will do no harm. Then you can feed corn to the pigs at a more profitable rate of production of pork than you could feed the cotton seed ration.

We should prefer to grind the corn and like in l . s of cud potatoes while hot, the meal would get moistened and tho starch grains cracked by the heat. Wheat bran, middlings, or rice polish might be used to grow the pigs, and then the corn meal used as a finisher to fatten them. N-w With Incubator.
