A demagogue is a member and leader of a political party to which we do not belong, who has the art of presenting the horesis we hate so attarotively that a foolish people elect him to office. An optimist is a person who, when be falls out of a balloon, ex- pects to find his neighbors down below Waiting with a net to catch him. A traitor is a wretch who when a friend in the stock market tips him off to buy certain stock, sells if and tells his friend to do so, thereby preventing the fellow who gave the tip from getting rid of the stock. Aneneray is a friend to whom yon have loaned money, who has learned that you told a third ,par ty you would be glad to get the cash back. A patriot is a man willing to save his country from the opposi tion party at the iegular market rates, and who believes his princi> pies should earn dividens.

Man Who Pardons Murderers by Whole sale Should Not be Elected Govern- , or of Tennessee. Richmond Times-Dispatcbl Democratic. The Democratic State convention of Tennessee has renominated Mal- com R. Pattersoufor Governor and tacitly, at least, has put the stamp of its approval on all that Patter son has done. Patterson, it wilt bo recollected, was elected Govern or atter the bitter campaign in which Senator Gormack was the. opposu g Democratic candidate, and he is thesame Patterson who gave a pardon to Colonel Duncan B. Cooper, the.convioted murderer of Senator Carmack. When the Democratic convention approved Patterson, it approved the murder pf Carmack. This is the whole story. Common decency demands that Patterson be defeated.- The men who are opposed to him in Tennes see akd the men who have always voted the Democratic ticket are the only men who can do. this. The. Republicans ' are \ comparatively weak, their nominee will have no chance in a general campaign, even if the opponents of Governor Pat terson stay away from the polls and refuse to approve by their ballots the in urder of their leader. Con sequently, they have either to bolt the Democratic ticket or else cast their ballots for the Republican nominee^, InjtO£u^timea; either' course would be deeply deplored by the National Democratic party, but in this case, either course would be justified. If the Democrats think they can beat Patterson by nominating an -. independent and putting a third ticketin the field, they shonld do so. Iftheycannot, they should deliberately throw the State into Republican hands for the next few years. There are some things that are wsrse than Repub lican rule, and the. election of .a man who pardons murderers by the wholesale is ope of these things. The whole South will look to Tennessee in this emergency, for the hopor of the South is involved. We thank God, in this ,part of the world, that we haye elections that are honest and choosefmen to office who are not corrupt. ’ We want it. ever to beso, and it. ean only be so'iwhen we cast out. the men who disgrace the party and’ bring shame upon the South.

Emigration from the United Kingdom has been increasing rap- ily this .year, owing to the-depress ed condition of business in that cohDtry. The Standard of Rm pire. a British newspaper, states that “present indications from shipping offices and other agencies show that the total for the year is ,likely to be over 300,000;” Sir Gilbert Parker, a member of the British Parliament, speaking on this subject, said: , “There is depression in every department of our industrial life.

C.Sanfferds' Surprised When Told He Is- Dead. Emil Weigel, of St. Louis, didn^t like it at all when a policeman called, at his. bouse: and informed him that he was dead and JJiat Cfftouer^SrJrtry ITad already passed on bis case. He was ■ more sue, prised when the policeman inform ed him that.the public adminstrat-. or bad seized on his $13,000’ bank deposit. He tried to argue - the matter with the officer, but it waS no use. The police told him it was official and that he was certainly dead. “ Why, . man, Pm ,not dead,” he said. “If I’m dead l’Jl be'dadblamad if I know anything about it,” and he piuched himself several times just to be sure about it. But the obdurate officer of th e: law said that made no differenced EmiTwas dead. The law .had de cided it and that made an end of the matter. y '"iU- “ Well if I’m dead, what has be come of my bodyf” asked theff her- wildered ; Emil as he gazed hazy- like into the glass and wondered if he really was himself or some other man. When told it was at the morgue, Weigel said he would go down there, and have a look at himself. He said he had never seen himself dead and would like to see what kind of corpse he made. When he got to the morgue, he was snown the body of another Emil-Weigel who had died the day before in the city hospital. Then, with the aid of witnesses and by making oath to the fact, Emil proved that the dead man was not he and that he himself individually and personally was very much a live. Then there were some more surprises. The coroner was sur prised and the public administra tor was' surprised. One of the deputv coroners ;of St Louis who with Emil and thenwalked down to the morgue and fouDd him registered there as dead, had $1 most to fee taken to the asyTnm.^- Exchange, ThosePiesofi Boyhoods, How delicious were the pies of. bob- hood.

Southern Good-Roads. • Everybody, we suppose, has heard Qt the old-fashioned spelling bee, husking bee, etc., but a good rtfads bed is a brand new thing. Out in Logan county, Kans., the other day a live wire commercial clnb arranged-such a bee with gratify ing results. Twenty-six teams and more than-that many men turned out.- - Lawyers, and merchants and bankers and farmers joined forces. Fbey drove scrapers and plows and Wagons^and road drags and as a re sult the day’s woik created a fine »tretch of- road running into the town of Logan. The Topeka Capi tal published a cut of the “guests” at thp.bee, and ii mnst have been aft iflspiring scene. The idea is ex * eellent and could be duplicated witji profitin many a rural south- ern commUnity. On the same plan isrthe designation of . ‘ ‘good roads dkys,’ ’I The. county- commissioners give officjal color to this by declar ing certain days good roads days ftnd issueva call to the citizens of the entire: countjr to turn out and wprkjhe toads. The people, in. that part of the summer when farm work-is slack, will be -found - more than, willing to take part in. such a PAtrioticgob.. and a surprisingly Iqrge am,qut}t of good jean.bg accom-„ pBsheft,,. The road can be shaped up,,ditches cleaned out and the road drag turned to good use. Co operation 4s the “order of the day” in all lines of endeavor, and wheie thereds lacking q system of finan cial backing sufficient to construct, permanenthighways, this “ bee idea’! and the Of interest to Farmers. High-priced products mean pros perity lor the farmer. Low-priced products spell disaster and stagna tion among those who produce the material that sustains life. The practical and scientific way to main tain high prices s through con trolled or limited production, and controlled marketing. VYe shonld not produce more of anything than the cotntry needs—and thedemand should b'e kept strong enough to in sure a fair price. The best way to limit the “money crops” is to get upon the bed-rock principle of the Live-at Home idea. The general application of this principle is the first step towards permanent pros-- perity on the farm. The departure from this fundamental idea, this basic principle upon which the continued prosperity of the farmer must rest, has been the greatest- economic error ever made hy sane and sensible people, and in no sec tion in the world have farmers suf fered more from this suicidal error than in the Southern states. The “make-money I' idea has been sub stituted for the fundamental idea of making a living at home and as a result we have been-buying west ern corn when we could raise it at the cost of the freight charges, buy ing 15-cent meat' which we can raise at 5 cents, dud $250 mules and horses that we conld raise for $75. /In no section of the country will farmers be benefited more by the application of the Farmers’ Union Live at-Home idea than in the cotton and tobacco sections; It is a sure cure- for the iniquitous lien aud-mortgage malady -aud^ds the'only safe-guaTd against de structive and rninous effects of pe riodical panics.—Union Farmer. - He Still Lives idea ,wiR he prod uctive cf good more wayB than one.

If the germ could be magnified in a Size equal to its terrors it would appear more terrible than a n y fire-breathmg dragon Germs can't be avoided. They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink. - ,The germ can only prosper when the condition of the system gives it free scope to establish it- self a n d develop. When there is a deficiency of -vital force, languor, restlessness, a sallow cheek, a hollow eye, when the appetitp is poor and the s l e e p is broken, it is time to guard against the germ. Youcan fortify the body against all germs by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Gold- en Medical Discovery. It increases ,the vital power, cleanses the system of clogging impurities, enriches the blood, puts the stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition in working condition, so that the germ finds no Weak ior. tainted spot in which to breed.

There are many reasons why the man who considers the matter care-1 fully wants to be a farmer. In the first place it is a safe busiDess. Veryfew farmers utterly fail— nothing like so many as in merchan- disi ng and otner business pursuits. While most farmers ‘ do not grow wealthy, they may feel sure of a competence if only they make an earnest effort. ; .; ...... rhe farmer’s expenser are . very light, tor he saves cost of rent and fuel and dairy products and garden truck, not to speak of melon, potato and berry patches. Many farmers also make all the bread : they■. eat and their own meat, aS well as feed for their stock,; And we must - not forget poultry. W hat . would, a farm be. withoufi pon|ti:yi , There is also, an abundance' of good fiuit, some of it, as blackberries' and dewberries, even growing wild, with no cost but a little waste-land and the time to pick it. In ail’this we see how the farmer may it urn bis work into enough of the nfeces- Baries Of life to live even before he sells anything at all. ; > They tell .us that crops are tin certain and that we have to battle with the climate gnd bad. seaborn*. and all others connected with them! W bat a pitj that every : farmer c%n’t see that he wonld be much better off and happier to study his .w£rk and push it. Work is. a pleasure when we make it do so&iething tor ns, and this is easy if only we try right. -If we once ge|! into the habit of successfnl work nothing is easier to do. You won’t want to do otherwise.. I kbpw people of large property who pnsh their work constantly because -it gives tuem pleasure. They have enough to live on, and could sit down in idleness, but they don’t want to, • Then why/ should those who have so little want to be idle? They would not if; thiey took thought and acquired right views oif life. j Every farmer certainly desires to enjay life and experience.'the special pleasure that Comesr from success in work, and business. Then this enjoyment may be his. AU he has to do is to put himself in a right state of mind for accipn and begin to make things come to pass. Instead of letting his soil coustant- deciiease in fei tilty, he wants, to build it up. Then he will enjoy seeing better crops and receiving a better reward for his laborJ He can then bave betted stock 'on .his. farm because he has more feed for them. He has more money to buy. farm impleuients and this will him satisfaction and pleasere.

THE NEWS FROM OUR COUNTRY CORRESPONDENTS What the People all Over the County are Doing REEDY CREEK. John Hege killed the biggest blue crane, in his fish pond a few days ago that ever waded the waters of Reedy Creek. , soon disposed of his hawkship. Soit was 1 with HiKi, as he was at the feast when we arrived, and we left him there, and aoea tne waters or neeay ureea. , suPPose he was * " * No‘ he did Mr. F. P. Crotts and family and Cbarley not .^et away, while WiUmms Aid ample justice to all the good things set before Inin; he was like hawk No. 2, he managed Weunderstand some people are saving that E. H. Morris had a hand in getting up the tickets printed in recent issues of The Record. We wish to say editorially that Mr. Mor ris had nothing to do with it, arid it’s an injustice to him to intimidate such a thing. With this issue, The Record begins its twelfth year. For the past three years the present owner and editor has worked hard to give - the people of Davieand adjoining coun ties a good, clean, respectable paper. Whether we have succeeded or not, remains-for our ieiders to decide. Wehavemadernistakesin the past year-many of them—and m the fu ture we will continue to make them. We have not pleased all the people— that was not our aim when we first started out m the newspaper busi ness. A paper that pleases all the people is^uot^ worth reading. We have always tried to be1 fair on all questions, but speaking our senti ments regardlessof the men higher up. We came into this world with out earthly possessions ahd against our will. When we are called to leave the same old world we will go against our will and without leaving much riches when counted in dollars and cents, for editors seldom amass much of this woiid’s goods. But if we have helped a brother that were more unfortunate than -we—if we have caused a faint ray of happiness to illuminate the life of a riai-bonod soul, we have not lived In vain. ■ The mission of The Record has been to build up and not pull down, to scat ter sunshine and not gloom. For three years we have labored early and late for the growth and welfare of our town, county and state. We have seen some of our labor bear fruit. Weshallcontmue to strive for the upbuilding of our county and the welfare of ourjpeopie ' The Re cord has been steadily growing in circulation until today we can proud ly say that it has a larger circulation than that of any other paper ever published m Davie county—a circu lation larger than that of both the other county papers combined. But we have room for more subscribers, and we want our friends to help us get them: We shall do our best to give you a better paper m the future than we have m the past. We want to thank our subscribers, advertisers and correspondents for their helt, and assistance in the past, and a'-k ior a continuance of the same. * Nifong went to Boone’s cave in their new automobile last Sunday.

The Dog And The Sheep. ^For twenty years or more, the sheep industry in Uorth Carolina has appealed in vain to the Legis lature for a dog law, much less pass one. Consequently, sheep raising in North Carolinaisa dead industry, whereas, it could be made one of the most profitable of all industries in the state. It appears that Georgia has a law taxing, dogs $1, but the Legislature yielding to pop ular clamor is about to repeal this law. Notingthis fact, The Rich mond Times Dispatch says: “ We are not surprised; we are not sur prised at anything a Georgia. Legis lature will do. Last year there were 245,000 sheep in the state of Georgia,or a fraction more than four sheep to every square mile ,of territory in that Commonwealth. We have not the statistics at hand but we venture to say that there are a hundred dogs to every square mile, with the result that sheep growing is almost one ot the forgot- ton industries in that State, as it. is in so many of the Southern States. But the rights oi the People must and shall be 'preserved, and in Georgia, we have no doubt that the yellow dog will prevail.” Ihe dog is one ot the greatest forces known in Southern politics. Why thiB is so, we do not attempt to say, bnt it is certainly a fact. Some Political News. The Democratic Congressional Convention for the first North Car olina.district renominated Hon. J. H.

Wath In. One ofthe richest men in North Carolinadied not long ago. .He was a iniliionare, but he didn't put on any frills about it and lived in a- manner singularly unlike the ordi nary man’s conception of the mil- !ionaire’s mode of living. He lived the simple life. It was so simple, indeed, that it would’ have been painful to almost anybody Who be lieved to any considerable extent in the maxim, ‘‘Live while you live.” This wealthy man of North Caro lina occupied a farmhouse of primi tive design. The house furnishings were severely, plain.T here was barely enough furniture for actual needs. The floor was without car pets and the windows were without curtains. Most ot the Window panes had been broken out years ago and none of them had been re placed. Thelittlespecialtelegram which chronicles these facts does not go much deeper into details, but all of us hare seen farmhouses of that sort. The front gatefiags on its; rust-ea*en binges; the chim ney is ragged and'moss-grown and the “roof lets in the sunshine and the rain.” It ishard to ronceive of a millionaire living and dying in that sort of a house, but we occa sionally hear of a case of that char acter. •; did n’t • havtf any motor boats or automobiles^ He had no bathtubs iu his honse. When he got up for breakfast every morning he washed his face in the horse trough. W in ter and snmuier andall the rest of the year. He owned a rickety bug gy and a faithful horse. The bug' gy heeded paint. The horse would have looked better if he had had fewer'burrs in his mane, and doubt less would have felt better if for a liberal application of the curry comb. but his master didn’t be lieve in wasting money on articles of horse toilets When the old man went to the country to w n he drove thither in his rickety buggy and he carried his dinner with him in a tin pail, not omitting to take along a few ears of corn for the horse. Nobody .would have suspected from bis ap pearence that he was worth a mil- iph. IHe Would havei been the last man on earth to be shot by an an archist who cherished a blood- thirsty prudence against million aires...

According to the last year bouk of the Deyartment of Agriculture, there are 21,720,000 milch cows' lit the Uhjted States, and these are worth:i702,945,000,00. The mag nitude:of the industry cah perhaps be best nnderatopd when it is con- considered that these cowb piroduce ygarly about $1,000,000,000. worth of dairy products. Theri is no other branch of di versifies agriculture so important to the process ot a community . The fertility of the soil can best be maintained by the liberal nse of barnyard manure and the dairy herd not only makes this possible, but dairying is also more remuner ative than other branches of farm ing when properly carried on. ,Dairyiug has made wonderful progress since the advent of the modern creamery and the consumer of butter has not only been benefit- ted by j being furnished a mere wholesome and palatable article of food, t>ut the wile in the farm home Jhas been relieved of the drudgery incident to making but ter on the farm. Where formerly the cream was ripened andjchnrned into butter uiider conditions not conductive to fine quality in the finished product and in the major ity of cases by unskilled hands, now the, most of the milk or cream is delivered to a modern creamery where conditions are suited to the purpos^of making butter and the result bias been a wonderful . im provement in the quality of our dairy p^pdacts. As the quality has improved consumption has in-f creasedjiand the progress of dairy- ltigyi^rbeen,.;remat]^l>le.-.during the past decade. ' \ , The perpetuity of the country’s greatness depends upon increasing this production of farm products, from year to year, a result which not only furnishes our people with but maintains the prosperity of our farmidg communities. Incriease in production can only come. through improved meteods of agriculture and soil improvement. When it,is considered that the dairy cow is the foundacion for soil improve ment and farming prosperity, her importance is best understood, and interest in her should not be con fined to her owner. She is an im portant factor in the development and prosperity of our country.

Where ia the Politician Who WiU Advo- cate die Lowering of the Price of thti; Farmers’ Productt, It iB a well known fact that the principal cause of the curtailment of the production by the cotton niillsof the country is the high price; of raw material, it is also well kpown that the price of cotton hae been high throughout the crop of 1909,.then where is the man who begrudges the farmer the era ot prosperiny which he is to day en joying throughout the length and breadth of this fair southland. Everybody,knows that when cotton is high, the tarmer is prosperous, row-that he is coming in for his share of prosyerity of the country, where is the main or politician who will advocate the lowering of the prices of the products of the farm in: order that the-mill owners may make more money . It is only a question of time until the other industries of the country will; adjust themselves npon an equal to that of the farmer, or near ly, so, then the whole country will move.as never before along indus trial lines. There never was a time in the^history of the country When all business conditions were exactly to our liking,;- while some classes were enjoying an era of prosperity; others were laboring under depressions and stagnation of’businebs. Therefore it stands to reason that: we should ^avvai t w ith, patience the-.coming of/the revival of liusiness. to the textile industry, wliich is snre to come j ust as soon askthe price of the manufactured j product can adjust itself io propor- tihn to the cost of raw material. The textile, manufacturers throughout the country have here tofore hnd an opportunity of buy ing a Iarg^ per cent of the raw cot ton for: their mills upon a Ibw mar ket, but this-year it has ' been dif ferent, the, price Of cotton has been high for more than a year, and if the mills't*an run under existing conditions; and break even, then there tnust be a decieed advance in the pric of the finished product be fore matters along this line can be properly adjusted. ; We would like to see the calam- ity howler go before the voters of the rural districts and advocate the lowering of the prices of farm pro. ducts as solution to the problem of exhisting . conditions.—State Dis patch, When the eminent Mr. John L.

The Democrats in Robeson county have be^n having some warm times, and the county convention on the 2d must have been something fierce. The Robesonian says of'it: If there has ever been , a more shameful, more disgraceful conven tion convention held in North Caro lina than the Democratic county con vention held in Lurnberton Saturdav it was back in the days before -the disfranchisement of the negro, and was. a Radical convention at that. We are sorry to say it, but it is just the simple truth that it was a disgrace to the county and to the Dem ocratic party. Howling, hissing and hooting was the order, and in this county which boasts, of ^• its prohibit ion sentiment, liquor was very much in/evidence. It was a sad spectacle for those who believe that fairness, decency and order should prevail at such conventions. Strong, but the way to improve a condition of this sortris to speak out about it.

The most difficult and, it may be added, the-moat romantic question that a eourt. of justice was ever c died upon to decide arose 10 east* ern Pennsylvania the other day when a comely young woman ’ of nineteen years sued her father be cause he had spanked her, The evidence showed that she had^gone to a skating rink, con trary to bis commands. Whereupon he proceeded after th e. native as d uncompromising fashion which Soloman advises, except that he did not even wait to find a rod. He chastised his pretty and stately daughter just as though she had stiil been in her rouipers. It was very humilating to her It was also painful. She straightway brought suit for damages against the des pot. ■ ... Evidently the judge of the lower court was an old fogy, for without any ado he j ustified the father 10 every detail. That decision, how ever, dosen't settle the great under lying principle of the case. It will require the wisdom of the Supreme court to declare with any degree of certainty just when a girl ceases to be spankable.— Baltimore Sun. A Few Short Weeks. Mrs. J. S.

Wasbingthn Dispatch, 7th. The inter Stale commerce com mission today ordered a redaction in through rates of Winston-Salem and Purham from Roanoake and Lynchburg, Ya-. It amounts to a- bout 9'Cents a hundred pounds on class freight and from 4 to 8 cents a hundred pounds on hay, grain and packing house products. Some lime ago a complaint was filed with the Commission by the corporation commission of North Carolina against the Norfolk & Western Railway Company and other carriers, alleging discriminia- tiou against Wmston salem and Durham by the railroads and-alleg- ing also discriminatory and'unreas- onable rates to-those pon ts from Chicago. East St. Louis, Cincinnati and Louisville, throngh Lynchburg and Roanoke. The commission held that the complainants’ charge of discrimina tion was not sustained, but that1 the present class rates of the Norfolk & Western from Roanoke and Lynchburg to Winston-Salem and Durham were unreasonable; and that the exhisting class rates via the same route from Cincinnati to- Winston Salem and Durham were nnjuBt and unreasonable. Walnut Timber From a House 125 Years Old. Marion Progress. Mr. R. L. C. Gibson has In his possession a valuable piece of tim ber from a house 125 years old. The sill is 12 inches square and 20, feet long, being black walnut. The sill was taken from the old Birchfield house on the Buek creek- road. This house was at one time the regular stopping place of the people coming over the mountains. Here Boone stopped when he came over the Indian trail from Tennessee to North Carolina. The walnu sill is in a perfect state ot preservation, free of knots and is very valuable becaase of its historic al value and scarcity.

Uncle Zeke, in Home and Farm. The world has a work for every body to do, and that work is de termined by each one’s fitness. We can’t all be farmeas, nor does , it suit the world’s demand for every* body to follow the same occuqation. Our occupations must be different. Itis agreat mistake to think that just anybody can bg asuccess- ful farmer any more than a'success- ful lawyer. It requires as much talent to become a good farmer as to become a good doctor, farmers are boru as much as poets. I once knew a. farmer who' began with nothing and ended with a 7,000- acre farm. That man had a genius for farming just as Napoleon had a genus for war, and was moresuc cessful. ■ Do you love farm work? _ Then you have a talent for it andougt to be a fermer. We are not apt to succeed at anything we do not love. To make our work effective we must love it.: We m ustthink abont it day andnight. It must be a task to us, but a pleasure. We must not iong for the sun to go down we can quit work, but rather wish for more time in which to do more work. - '-.j . , ■, - I have-afiieild who i»- worth a hundred ttsSusand dollars. He could invqBtjdi his belongings in United States bonds/ and not do* a particle of work, but he does not do so. He loves work and knows that he will be happier to continue it. To quit work would make him miserable. When weloveourwork it is- pleasure to study it and find out-all about the best ways to do it. I read the other day about one of our great American steel kings. He began life as a poor boy on a salary of a we6k, but now *his salary is faialf a million dollars a year. The steel king’s name is william E. Corey. He was not a very bright boy, and his father was able to give- him only a common school education He bad no “pull” and no “ backer” - but his own indomitable energy and IovC for work, When he /was- put into a job, he didn’t watefil the clock for fear h e. would do IDiore1 woiktban he was paid to do. JHis great thought was to get more . in formation about his work so as • to do it better. , W hat was the effect ot yoking Corey’s method of work?

C. head of the greatest steel plant the world,.,. . / FF-We c ^ ^ ® ) e great steal kings andwe^ybn’t/fr'ant to be, but we may be something else that will be just as good or better for ■■ us. ' If we have it in us, we may become a good farmer, which is just as ,de sirable and possibly more product ive of. happiness. . ‘ How may one. become a good farmer! By loving the work and finding Out the best way -and then doing it with all of. bis. might. What are some of the things to find outt One of thefirst is to know good land and all kinds of land when we Bee it. W em m dget on none but good land or^ alsemake it good. Anybody knows; that 'i t does not pay to work Qriprodueitive land It takes the Bame amount of work to make a wheht cropof eight,bushels to the acre asto maheone of thirty bushels to the teeec ■ Hence the great advantage i^in having good land. - Another-advantage in, knowing what land will do is that we may put/the right kind of crop ou it. Sonus farms are best' suited for growing gram and others for Btock raising. Others still are adapted to fruit or gardening. Some high; gravelly ridges are fit for little else thautgrowing peaches and apples; Iu eorn they might bring you $10 an acre, while in frnit they would bring from $200 to $500 an acre. Again there is land that pays best in grass—it may be for pas ture or it may be for making bay. Every kind-of land is suited for spmething, and the wise farmer finds out what that something is and grows a crop of it. - Without great care the character of our land will change, or “run down,?’ as we say. W e must be able to detect this and provide against it. We must supply with manure, or grow? some crop like clover on it which will improve its fertility. /- WhUt else must we know in order to suoieed as farmers? Many things but* especially we should know all abont live stock and stock breeding; It is vbry hard to keep up the fer tility of your land without plenty of stock; on it. Then when you se lect stock you want to know which Will^pay best and choose those. Don’t be afraid to ask for infor mation when you don’t know about a rhing. 'You; remember that .was. the way that William E. Corey be came a great steel king. He asked questions of those above him-1 and found out all about his work. He went to night school and took stu dies that ,would help faim along^ ---. You may'not be able to go to school, but you can get every kind of farm publication that tells you how*to make your work a success. You can also visit successful farm ers and get information from them.' You can attend farmers’ institutes and dbnventions or the short course for farmers at your State agricult: ure college; We must know how to use ma chinery to best advantage, In this rdspect we are much behind in the' South. M anyofus cultivate our corn with a single horse plow and go backward and forward four dimes in a row to do what might be done with a cultvator at one trip across1 the field, or even two rows might be cultivated atone -time. Think of the great sayinga large cultivator would give us. No wonder the Iowa farmers grow.rich. They use all kinds of machinery and . save- the cost of hired labor. We use a traction engine with the thrasher perhaps six weeks in the year, while they make it do service practically all the year through.- It turns the land, cuts the meadow, draws loads saws wood,' cuts corn,- shreds corn or. cuts it up for silo, churns the buiter, grinds corn and cob meal, puinpS water, often runs a small custom milly drags the road many Other thi;hgs that I cannot, now think of. The Improved gasoline engine is: ofcourse,:the one meet conveniently need. • We should/also nnderstand thor oughly all marketing of farm pro ducts and trading in order to sue ceed with iarm business. What ever we have to-,do we should learn to do it in- the U1St and most profi table w ay. i Then our work will be a succfts. \ Ij IyC5I-S LITTLE OLD NEW YORK.

The editor ol the paper was sick and wanted a vacation, Mark a- grced to till his place while he took a rest; and xhe editor jumped at the offer. Of course, being a humorist, the new editor had to be funny; so he : handed/out to his readers-such-val uable misinformation as tbes: “Turnips should never be palled; it injures them, it is muce better to send a boy up and let him shake the tree.” “Guano is a fine- bird, bnt great care is necessary In rearing it. It should not be imported earlier than June or later than September. In the winter it should be kept in a warm place, where. it can hatch out its young.” “Concerning . the . pumpkin.— This berry is a favorite with the natives of. the interor of New Eng land, who prefer it to the goose'- berry for the makin of fruit cake, and who .likewise give it-the pref erence over the raspberrp for feed* ing cows, as being more filling and fully satisfying.

By loving the W1Ork and !finding out the best way /and’ then “doing it with all ot his might. What are some of tfife th/ings to find opt?- One of the'fitst is to know good landand aUkinda;ofland when rensee it. We mnrit ,get on none mt good land or.ielsermake it good.

' Again there is land that pays best in grass—it may be for pas ture or it may be for making hay. Every kind-ojf land is snited for spmething, and the wise farmex finds out what that something is and grows a crop of it. ' Without great care the character of our land will change, or “run down,” as we say. W e m ustbeable to detect this and provide against it. W e must supply with manure, or grow? some crop like clover on it which will improve its fertility. .*> What else must weknow in order to succeed as farmers? Many things, but especially we should know all; abont live stock ahd stock breedi ng: Itis v^ry hard to keep up the- fer tility o'f your land without plenty of stock, on it. Then when you se lect stock you want to know which wil^pay best and choose those. Don’t be afraid to ask for infor; mation when yon don’t know about a rhing. ^ o n : remember that “was. the way that William E. Corey be came a great steeLking. He asked questions of those above him and found out all about his work. He wedt Io njght school and. took stu dies that ,would help him along. You may'not be able to'go to school, but you can get every kind of farm publication that tells you ho w'to make your work a success. You can.also visit successful farm ers and get information from them. ■ You can attend farmers’ institutes and dbnventions or the short course for farmers at your State’ agricult. nre college; We must know- how to use ma chinery to best advautage, In this rdspect we are mncb behind in the South; AIany of us cultivate our: corn with a single h'orse plow and go backward an,d forward four Himes in a row to do wbat might be done with a cnltvator at one trip across the field, or even two; rows might be cultivated atonei time. Think of the great saving . a large cultivator would give us. . C No wonder the Iowa farmers grow.rich. They use all kinds of machineryrand save: the cost of hired labor. We use a traction engine with, the thrasher perha^ six weeks in the-year, while they make it do service practically all the yeat through. It turns the, land, cuts the meadow, draws loads saws wood, cuts corn; shreds corn or cuts it up for silo, churns the bultori grinds corn and cob meal, pumpk'water; often, runs a small custom mill, drags the road many otherthiugs that I cannot now think of. The Improved gasoline engine is; of course, the one most conveniently used. - We should' also understand tbor- oughly all marketing of farm pro ducts and trading in orderto sue ceed with Iarm business. What ever we have to^do we should learn to do it- in-the bost and most prott table u ay. ‘ Then'our work will be a SUCCF 89. V _ UXSuX-B’ ZEEE. L iniE OLD NEW YORK.

The county convention of the Republi can party of Davie county, is hereby call ed to meet in the town of Mocksville, N. C, at 12 o’clock, noon, on Monday, the 1st day of August, 1910. The convention is called for the purpose of electing dele gates to the State, Congressional, Judicial and Senatorial conventions, and to tran sact any other business that may come before the convention. The Precinct Pri maries will meet on Saturday, July 30, 1910, at the usual voting places, for the purpose of electing delegates to the coun ty convention. Each precinct vs entitled to one delegate for every 25 votes cast for Governor at last election, 1908. ThisJuly 11,1910. C.G. BAILEY, Chairman, County Rep. Ex. Comm. J. F. MOORE, Secretary. The Lexington Dispatch has al ready elected Hammer and Page. That sheet always elects in July or August. ____________ Every Republican in Davie county is urged to attend the primaries Sat urday, and the county convention next Monday.___________ County politics is beginning to warm up. It is thought by many that an entire new ticket will be put out by the Republicans this fall. Dr. Alexander, of Charlotte,- made one of the best speeches at the Far mers’ Union picnic at Center, that he have heard in a long while. Ii the farmers will carry j)ut his sug gestions, it will mean ihuch to them and to the county. The Sixth Congressional Conven tion of the Democratic-party met- at Wrightsville Boach last Wednesday. The convention became so stormy that the police had to be called in to quell the not. The song .of the mocking bird was not heard in that convention. In another column appears the an nouncement of Mr. B. -G,- Williams, of Advance, for Treasurer. We be lieve that Mr. Williams is entitled to the nomination, and from what we hear, he will secure it. No better man in the county, in our opinion, could be nominated for this position. We hope to see Mr. Williams nomi nated and elected.. PEACE DECURED. After going to Sunday school last Sunday,and hearing the parable,read about the devil coming and sowing the tares in the good wheat, while the gardener slept, we are made ready to accept Brother Stroud’s ex planation in the Davie Record that the devil knocked off the heading to our squibs printed in that paper, and ruh them while Brother Frank slum bered on his virtuous couch. - The excuse is entirely Biblical and there fore acceptable to the Lash. For the kindly diplomatic offices of the Charlotte Observer m bringing about peace in our sanctums, both the Lash and The Record extend thanks. Frank, you have my cordial invite to come over and stick your feet under the table with me any old time. The sword is sheathed,- the gun spiked and the bulldog tied behind the barn. —Law’s Lash. Yea. verily, do vve feel like falling upon our bread-basket and howling our deliverance. How sweet it is to dwell together in unity and peace as brethren. Seventh Congressionat Convention. A convention of the Republicans of the 7th North Carolina Congress ional District is hereby called to meet in Lexington, North Carolina, on Tuesday afternoon, August 9th, at 3 o’clock; p. m„ for the purpose of nominating a candidate for the Six ty-second Congress of the United States, and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the convention. This call revokes the one heretofore is su sd for the convention to meet at Asheboro. The Judicial Convention oTthe 10th North Carolina District WtH-meet at the’same time and at the same place, AU of the" counties in- this district are hereby earnestly urged to send as large delegations as possible. ‘ - R. H. Biesecker, Ch’m Ex. Comm. 7th Cong.. Dist. J F. Makepeace , Sec. A Voice From Davie County, ET. H. Morris in Union Republican., Mr. Editor:—In a recent article to your paper I called attention, , to the great importance of every vo ter attending the township prim aries for there the delegates are e- lected, and there the mischief is often done which results in the thwarting of the will of the major- ity by designing men. AU of this mischief can be obviated and de feated l>y every voter attending his primaries and expressing his choice for candidate and instructing the delegates to cast the vote in the county convention as per your in struction. But- if you stay at home and leave it to others you have , no real right to complain, if your choice for the nomination fail. In the former article I wrote I promis ed to show how under our present pla t of organization it is possible for a minority to make nominations thus deieating the majority as, ex pressed at the primaries, and the only way to obviate this conditiou is to require the vote to be voted in the convention as cast and pro rated in the primaries among the various candidates, For an illustration of the point, we will take a small county with eight townships with 43 votes in the con.vention, it will take 22 votes to nominate. We will number the townships consecutive ly from -I to 8 the hrst six town ships have 5 votes each. No 7 has, 6 votes and No. 8 has 7 voies. A and B are rival candidates tor Clerk. Townships 12 3 4 5 and 6 divides its votes equally between A and B giving each 15 votes apiece, in township No. A gets 4 votes and B 2 votes. That gives them as fol lows: A 19 votes B 17 votes In in township No. 8 -which has 7 votes in the convention, a pool of the voters is taken and A is found to be entitled to 3 votes and B to 4 votes. Now this would make A 22 votes and B 21 votes, thus uoml- udtiDg A by a margin of I vote a clear majority, over all. But y n stead of allowing tbe vote to' t)f pro rated as cast in the primary ih township -No. 8 B has some friends there who are expectiug a close call for their friend, and seeing that B has more votes at this this town ship than A, one of B’s friends makes a motion to cast the entire 7 votes for B and by a majority vote, it is carried and A loses his 3 votes and they are given to B which swells B’s vote in the convention to 24 and leaves A with 19, So B has a majority in the convention of 5 over A. When in fact he was the minority candidate and A was clearly entitled to nomination. Now the point I make is that such me thods are not fair, and no honest man who is a candidate can afford to accept a nomination under such conditions and no party can toler ate such conditions, aud expect to dow discontent among the rank and file. Tbe people are expecting a square deal, and' nothing but a square deal is right and will be tot erated. Lets change our plad of organization and require all con ventions electing . delegates where there is a contest between two or more candidates to pro-rate tbe vote as cast, and instruct the de legates to so cast the vote in tbe nominating conventions. Lets urge our people to attend the primaries and conventions, aud see that a fair deal !striven every man and you will see that onr primaries and con ventions are more largely attended and the cause for dissatisfaction willsoon disappear. If majority rule is a failure and is not to be reconized then a Republic is a fan ciful dream of visionray men, abd is doomed to die to perish from the earth-as did the Romsn Empire. Ho IIob Endorsed. The Republican county conven tion which met in Asheboro last week,-endorsed Hon. Chas L. Hol ton, of Asheboro,-for solicitor in tniB, tfae^ldth judicial district.
