WASHINGTON LETTER.
i. V.,
The democrats of the House of
Representatives held their long
deferred caucus on Friday even
log under the
dance of Mr. and other
democratic leaders, determined
upon a policy which it is believed
will prove most effective, not
in furthering the interests the
party Out also in stemming the
tide of plutocratic, legislation
which it is expected the
can majority will attempt to mi

the last national convention but
apart from their contention it was
determined that then was no

It was further decided that it
would lie wiser for the members of

opposition on the Treasury
and endeavoring to protect the
whole people from legislation in-
spired by the great vested Inter-
whose liberal campaign

the opposition.
The and Means Committee
is still giving hearings to the rep
of the beet sugar and
tobacco industries in this country
and In Cuba. The beet sugar
lobby is growing desperate and is
contemplating a coalition, of forces
with the democrats in an effort to
reduce the protection on refined
sugar. The beet sugar men are.

admit that they would be in a bet

industry if the Trust were destroy-

were granted to Cuba. The

opposed to a duty which

that a moderate concession would

believes the United States owes it
to Cuba to at least start heron the

Apropos of the beet sugar
there is a story going the
rounds in inner circles of a very
stormy Cabinet meeting at which
the President alleged to have told
his Secretary of Agriculture that

that nothing more would be heard

persistently refused to appear be-

he is adverse to any reciprocal
treaty Which will lower the duty
on sugar. Of course
above incident has given rise to
renewed go-sip in regard to
net changes but no change in the
Agricultural portfolio is
plated at this time.

The Lenoir News of last
had this striking editorial
few days since, a short
tramp in the country, we noticed
a field of corn still standing
gathered, going to waste while
com is selling at a
bushel. We noted at another
place a good mowing machine,
standing out in the weather, where
it bad evidently left at the
end of the season. Cattle
are still, many instances, left
out in the fields unprotected from
and fed a little hay and
bran on the ground to be tunneled
in the mini. If house at all it is
done in such an indifferent and
careless manner that they arc
given very little protection and
twice the amount of feed is
ed to keep them in condition that
would lie needed were they kept
warm and dry. Hay all kinds
of forage is left standing in the
field until needed for use. By
that lime more or less of it has
wasted by exposure to the
weather the depredation of the
poorly fed cattle above referred to.
These and many other evidences
of carelessness, or
ignorance seen any day in
a short trip through this country,
we must get out of these old
ruts, take care of work
with judgment, making an acre by
good and tillage pro-
duce what two or four now pro-
duce by cultivation.
With proper management and
thrift, we believe farming offers
better inducements in this country
at this nine than ever before, but
many old ideas and must
be abandoned.
It seems to us is a fine
opening some one to make good
money in this community, raising
pips poultry. Pigs arc
demand at high prices, and chick-
ens and eggs have commanded
higher prices during the last
twelve mouths than ever before.
Spring chickens will bring to
cents a pound by April or
Truly, this is a bad showing,
and the worst of it is that our
contemporary that such
as it has
pictured be -en any day in
a short through its country.
The wonder is that people so care-
less so wasteful can manage to
make buckle and tongue meet
that they contrive to keep body
and soul together. They could

upon which God has bestowed His
blessings with a bounteous hand.

could not do it in any other

Prepare your land well, manure well and plant a variety that
command a better price when you offer it on the market.
Two years ago I secured a peck of seed, planted on half an
acre of land and picked a bale of cotton that weighed pounds,
shipped this cotton through Mr. R. J. Cobb together with several
other bales of good variety and this bale sold for three eights of a cent
more per than the lot. The lint is far superior to any cotton
sold on this market and the yield is far ahead of anything we have In
this country. Numbers of the best farmers in county saw my
crop growing in the field and pronounced it as fine as they ever saw.
I am offering these seed for sale at 91.00 a bushel. Parties
wanting any of seed will please send me order at once as I
only have a limited quantity for sale.
