f^et R.eadv Now To
Make Cheap Pork
There are two facts which should
be of peculiar interest to Southern
farmers at this time:
1 Live hogs are selling on the
large live stock markets of the
country at or above 9 cents a
pound.
2 It has been demonstrated,
time and again, that hogs can be
grown in the South for from 3
cents to 4 cents a pound live weight.
These results have not been
obtained under especially favorable
conditions: but in such a way as
any farmer who will read and
think, may easily duplicate. In
fact, many Southern farmers have
produced hogs at 2£ cents a pound
live weight, or less, and are doing
it every year. They get these re¬
sults almost regardless of the price
of corn, because, while they feed
some corn, it forms a small'part
of the ration upon which the hogs
are grown.
Making pork economically can
only be done by growing crops for
for the hogs themselves to gather
or harvest.—Raleigh (N. C.) Pro¬
gressive Farmer and Gazette.
This section was blessed with a
much needed rainfall this week,
which is the lirst rain of any con¬
sequence that we have had in
some time. Farmers and garden¬
ers were becoming very much
alarmed over the protracted
drought right at this time of the
year when it is so essential to the
gardens and were profoundly
thankful when the rain began to
fall Tuesday about noon, and con¬
tinued at a steady gait for the re¬
mainder of the day. The good
that it did is uncalculable.

Bratton Comedy Co.
At Family Theatre
The managers of the Family
are presenting this week
a strong vaudeville bill, which is
done by the Bratton Comedy
Company, composing three clever
who have scored a
hit with the large audiences
that have heard them each night
week,
Besides the latest songs, the
Brattons have quite a fund of
brand new refined jokes that they
spring each night and which have
won for them much applause.
Another new feature, too, is the
illustrated songs which are of the
highest order.
The heavy expense the managers
of the Theatre have put themselves
to this week, in order to have a
good show, is greatlv appreciated
by the patrons who will be interest¬
ed to know that a bill equally as
strong will be put on next week.

Douglas Visit 3d By
Destructive Fire
A disastrous (ire occurred last
Saturday night at Douglas, des¬
troying somewhere in the vicinity
of $35,000 worth of property.
The lire originated in the Union
Banking Company’s Building,
which is situated in the most thiek-
ly settled portion of the business
section which for several hours,
was in imminent danger of being
destroyed, and was saved only by
the heroic work of the tire depart¬
ment.
It is stated that the Union
Banking Company, who occupied
a room on the lirst floor, suffered
less from the lire than any others,
the main source of their damage
being from water. Their loss is
estimated as being between $3,000
and $5,000 with some insurence.
Besides the Banking Company,
others who suffered losses were:
The Douglas Supply Company,
with a total loss of $20,000 and
insurance; Douglas Hard¬
ware Company, loss $8,000, with
$5,000 insurance: Wilcox & Kirk¬
land removed all goods before the
tire reached them, and fully cover¬
ed with insurance: Fielding & Den¬
ton, almost all goods removed be¬
fore lire reached them, fully* in¬
sured. On the upper floor the loss
was complete, Quincey & Mc¬
Donald, attorneys losing every¬
thing in their office except what
was in the safe, amounting to
$5,000 or more, with $1,000 in¬
surance; Colonel Lawson Kelly,
entire office, books, etc., amount¬
ing to $1,500 to $2,000, with no
insurance; Judge C. T. Roan,
losing entire library, papers and
everything in his office, amount¬
ing to $1,000 to $2,000; F. M.
& Co., real estate, losing
in their office, amount¬
to $5,000, with no insurance;
General Agency of the Geor¬
Life Insurance Company, J.
Cochran, manager, lost every¬
with no insurance, amount¬
ing to several thousand dollars.
