The wild flora of North Carolina
includes about species of grasses.
Among these there are several per-
grasses of a very promising
character. The botanist of the
Experiment has recently

of the grasses growing in the eastern
section of the State and also secured
samples of their forage sufficient

roots will he planted on the

and careful selection to so
improve the quality of some of them
as lo make worthy of a place in
the best meadows and pastures.
The Experiment Station is always
glad to receive of promising
native grasses and to furnish
concerning their value. The
grass question is a very important
one to North farmers. The

in Congress is finishing its work of

it is hoped, though it must be
confessed that there is little
for the hope, that one cent

this, or anything else that will

some of them may be shrewd
enough to see that it would be a
popular way to spend a portion of
the surplus, and that it might be
made an excuse in the eyes of the
masses for the millions given and

A Safe Hobby.
A hobby is apt to be an expensive
palfrey. It sometimes costs piles of
money to groom and run it, and it
wins purses and cups enough to
pay for its keep and entrance fees.
Nevertheless as a man, in the absence
of some special object to engage
thoughts, is almost sure to get into
mischief, it is better for him to push
ahead on any sort of a hobby that is
not vicious than to lounge through life
In a slipshod, desultory way, without
definite aim or purpose. No matter
what other praiseworthy hobbies a man
may have, he should make conscience
the prime favorite of his moral stud.
That is a hobby that is always safe.

The principal actor in the plays said
they were the best behaved boys he
had seen anywhere. They did not

any boisterous noise any way except
laugh, and that was what he wanted
them to do. Our boys have greatly
improved of late, and we hope they
will continue to do so and justly
merit such praise.

upon their success.
Killed by a Little Boy.
A very sad homicide occurred four
miles above Greenville Monday after-
noon. The particulars, as we learn-
ed them yesterday, are that Mr.
A. A. Forbes, who had come down to
town with a load of tobacco for ship-
left word for his little son Alf
a named Bill, a half witted
man who lived on the place, to carry
home a buggy that had been
rowed from a neighbor. Before
starting with the buggy Alf bad gone
in his father's room and put the tat-
pistol in his pocket. When
they had got off up the road a bit
the boy up in the buggy to
ride and told the to pull it
along. While sitting in the buggy
he began fooling with the pistol and
fired it off in the air. He fired it
again, Hie second ball striking the
man in the back. The man
fell in the road and the boy thinking
he had done so in fun called to him
and told him to go on with the bug-
Not getting up the boy went
and jumped on the man playfully,
and as he did so saw the man gasp-
in the last agonies of death.
This frightened the little fellow
he ran back home and told what bad
happened. It Is truly a occur-
and draws out sympathy for
the parents and family of the little
boy. It should also be
against boys tooling with pistols.

These facts show us that iron is

The behavior of nickel steel is very
