09-SeptemberHERE SHALL THE PRESS, THE PEOPLE’S RIGHTS MAINTAIN; UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN.” VOI-Iimn xv- When Farmer Fixes Price. FTOliessive Farmer. In Die Progressive Farmer office the otiiei day Prof. D. N. Barrow hmiIo a statement about the control ul cotton prices that is worth pass jU<r oi). T lus is what he said: ol’he tanner will be a^le to fix the price of his cotton when he owns it and not before. The farm­ e r js not an exception to the geaer nl rule that a man cannot control the price of a thing which does not belong to him .” AU the argument in the world cannot get away from this simple proposition. Thecotton crop of (he youth when made does not be­ long to the men who made it, but to the landlord, the storekeeper the banker, who f urnished them the money to make it with. These Uieu want their money, the cotton grower lias to raise it for them, and has just one way to get it— that is to sell his cotton. Of course, uader such conditions, some one else fixes the, price of cot­ ton: and not until the conditions are changed will the farmer hare much “say” in the matter. It is good to know that the con­ ditions are being changed, -that more and more farmers are coming really to own the crops they make; but there is yet much progress to be made before any sort of organ iKitiou or financing plan can enable tbe farmers, as a class, to hold for for a fair price. The first thing in tbe tight for better cotton prices is to do away with the old practice of lettiug cotton growers live all sum­ mer long on the expectation of a crop yet to be made. The share cropper, with everything furnished him and a mortgage laid on the cotton he is going to make, must be converted into a wage hand, or given a chance to do real farming and release himself from the econo­ mic slavery of his present condi­ tion. The land ownig farmer who buys fertilizers and workstock and machinery and corn and hay and groceries and clothes, all to be paid for when cotton is sold, must be be changed into a self supporting farmer who grows more of what he needs and owns more of what he produces. Here is where the work of fixing cotton prices must begin; and any Buch work is necessarily slow. It is gratifying to know, however, that every farmer can do some­ thing at it this very year. He can at least make sure that he will have home-grown hay and feed and home-rai3ed meat to eat next winter; and these two thiDgs will put him far along the road to econo-, inic freedom. It must be remem­ bered, too,'that every man who puts his farming on a self-sustain­ ing basis, not only helps himself, but also adds to the strength of the farmers who already own their cot­ ton and hastens the day when there will be enough such farmers to take care of the crops produced by the dependent class. MOCKSVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 3, 1913.NUMBER 9 Credit Too Slack, Too Brother. Siler City Grit. Ihe laxity which many people exhibit in the matter of paying a debt is apalting, And we are not especially referring to those who are in arrears for their papers; we are speaking generally now. There are many people whose honesty you would never for a moment ques­ tion, who buy whatever they want on time and then disregard any re­ quest for settlement. And many' of these people who stifle their con­ sciences are members in high stand­ ing in their churches, and if they were pointedly acpused with de­ liberate “beating” a fellow out of his goods by contracting a debt which they are slow to pay, why they would raise a howl and start a slander suit at once. This de linquency in paying a debt really appears to be growing worse, and unless the practice is checked, it will torce the adoption of a pay as- you go system everywhere1 Many of those “respectable” debt-con- tractors get furiously angry if sent a bill or are “dunned” for the a mount. They cousider it an insult; but just how they expect business to run without money or why others should support them, we are unable to understand. An AwfnI Arraignment of David­ son’s Itizeoskipv The Statesville Landmark says: Davidson county has long had the reputation of being a very corrupt county. The report has been com­ mon for years that a large per cent of the citizenship, including many well to-do, sold their votes at every election if they could find buyers; and it has been a matter of common report that the jury box as well as the ballot box, was corrupted in Davidson. The report seems to be verified by what took place in Davidson Buperior eourt this week. When a defendant was arraigned in a homieide case counsel for the prosecution moved that' jurors be summoned from another county—a recent act of the legislature permit­ ting this—and in support of the motion read affidavits from promin­ ent citizens stating that to 30 per eent of the citizens whose names are in the jury box conld be bought and sold at elections. Counsel for the defense did not re­ sist the motion and it was granted. But isn’t that an awful. arraign­ ment of the citizenship of'a county? Good Reason for His Enthusiasm. When a man has suffered for several days with colic, diarrhoea or other form of bowel complaint and is ,then cured sound and well by one or two doses of Chamberlain’sColic, Cholera and Diarrhoea' Remedy, as is often the case, it is but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise of the remedy, and especially is this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened.

Editor Joh nso u explains: Of course they never give out all the facts, in the case, but it is no uncommon oc­ currence after a term of court to hear it whispered around that they were afraid to risk certain cases before the judge. Not often ' are they bold enough to allow this im­ pression to get out before the term of court. But here it is and court two weeks off, and already we hear the report on the streets that Judge Lane is not to be trusted in hand­ ing down his opinion on eertqin matters. To be more explicit they cannot afford to trust Judge Lane to pass upon what shall be done with that fifteen-year-old brandy. It is known that Judge Lane stands for all that is best and that he knows the law. He is not afraid to do his duty, and the idea of having that fifteen-year-old brandy poured out in the streets of Dob­ son or even into the gutters of this wicked city is something fearful to contemplate. So some kind of an excuse has been hatched up to allow the hqatter to. go over until another term of court. In the meantime Capt. Sam Pace has been down to the West-Hill. Co’s. store and bought himself a twenty-five pound can of sourwood honey and is the happiest man in town. He is so impudent that he dares |o stand on the streets and boast thbt he has in his possession an- abund­ ant supply of both sourwood honey and fifteen-year-old brandy. Just how a long suffering people can stand for such conduct is more than we can tell. Yadkin Valley Bank Shortage A- bout $21,000.).Raleigh, Aug. 11.—Returning from East Bend this evening, State Bank Examiner S. A.

We note that the state treasurer, is slowly disposing of the issue of state bonds, authorized by the last legislature, about half ofr the a- mount authorized having been sold. We also note that the dispatches say that.the state debt has not been decreased by the sums received for the bonds. It wa.B our impression that the bonds,were issued to pay oft tfie state’s floating indebtedness, but here we find half of the money already used for other purposes. This may be good financiering, but we do not think so.—Lenoir News.

Inthe light of the valuation of Brazilian monazite, the duty on the home production has been really reduced from four cents to two and one half cents.

Good Roads Meeting. A good roads meetings was held in the court house Wednesday morning at 11 o’clock. A largenumberof citi zens were present from Davie and a number of prominent men from Ire­ dell and Forsyth counties. Speeches were made by P. H. Hanes, Judge Jones, Judge Long, L. C. Caldwell, Dorman Thompson. C. G. Bailey, T1 B. Bailey, and others. The object of the meeting was to secure the $40,- 000 which is to be given North Caro­ lina by the National Government through Governor Craig. Thismoney is wanted to build part of the road through Forsyth, Davie and Iredell counties. A strong effort is being made to secure the State Central Highway from Winston to Statesville via Mcoksville. The steel bridge connecting Davie and Forsyth eoun^ ties is to be built at once, and it is thought that we can get the highway through the above named counties. Acommittee consisting of P.. H. Hdnes and Judge Jones, of Forsyth; Judge Long and L. C. Caldwell, of Iredell; C. G. Bailey and A. T Grant, Jr., of Davie, were appointed to draw up resolutions to present to Governor Craig asking him to give these counties the $40,000. A large delegation will go to Raleigh today, Tuesday, to present the matter to the Governor, and everybody in Davie county as well as our neigh­boring counties, are hoping that tnis petition will be granted. Everybody realizes that the route through Davie is the logical one for the State High­ way, and if we do not get it. it will not be our fault. T. B. Bailey pre­sided over the meeting here Wednes­ day, and much enthusiasm was mani­ fested by the large crowd present Cooleemee News. I see that the Journal seems to have 'taken exception at the sermon preached by Rev. C. H. Utley on the 4th Sunday as his farwell sermon to the congregation at the Baptisi church. We hardly thought that the Journal would have taken notice to a sermon that was preached to Uie Factory hill people, since it is located up town on Main St. It said he gave the people hail Columbia. Of course I guess some of his hearers thought he gave them straight goods, at least they had a right to think so. The Journal says it was in < hopes that he would interest his next congregation better than he had here. He will interest all good law-abiding and God­fearing citizens, but the other kind he will be sure to hit, and of course when he does they wiil.be apt to squeal. It' also says that it was hoping that on hii next resig­nation that he would have the backbone to go out at the front door. He was polite enough not to go out through the congre Cation when he could get out through the back, as he had to leave before services closed to get to a train. But there is one dufereuce in their leaving. Rev, C H Utley did not have to leave Cooleeinee' but the Journal did. Rev. C. M. Short pastor of M.

Yadkinville, Aug. 27 —One negro is dead, one. badly wounded, a town­ ship constable badly bruised and three negroes are already under ar rest following a mixup that began at a negro meeting near Huntsville, this county, last night. Late yesterday afternoon Town­ ship Constable J. E. Shugart re­ ceived word that he was wanted down below Shocktown to make an arrest, and taking his son, Guerney, he started. He found that he was to arrest two negroes, Tom Hamlin and one named Bitting, for the al­ leged theft of a coat from one Frank Warren earlier in the day. So pro­ curing his warrents, the constable went to tne church where the ne­ groes were and arrested Bitting, While this was going on, it seems that Hamlin was organizing a crowd to recure the prisoner. Finally with six comrades he made an attack on the officer and succeeded in liberat­ ing the prisoner. After this thing happened thick and fast. Hamlin, the leader of the rescuing party,- is of powerful,, build and is supposed to have been the one who struck Constable Shugart some hard blows that almost put him out of commission for a while. As the negroes went away with the prisoner Shugari fired at them but the shots went wild- This was early last night. Shortly after midnight Sheriff Poindexterand DeputySheriff Wish- on and some special deputies arrived on the scene and soon several of the negroes were surrounded. In a pitched battle that followed between the officers and negroes one negro named Bitting was killed outright and another negro wounded. The officers arrived this morning with three of the rebellious blacks who will be given a hearing at once, while the officers of adjoining coun­ ties are on the lookout for those es­ caping. consist of five to seven citizens of the county to assist in the work of ending the discrimination in freight rhtes against North Carolina in favor of Virginia. The State President is Fred N. Tate, of High Point. The freight rate question in North Caro­ lina is serious, and deserves the seri­ ous consideration of every citizen in the State and we hope that the mer­ chants and business, men of Davie county will take every step in their power to help secure a just rate for the State. .

Next in volume come hilliard balls, cutlery handles, brush- ware and toilet articles. It also en­ ters into the manufacture of number­ less little ornaments and articles of general use, such as statuettes, cruci­ fixes, paper cutterB, workbox fittings, toys and chessmen. The most valuable of all Ib the “scrivalloe,”. to which I have referred —as being used in the making of bil­ liard balls, and on an average three balls of fine quality are got out of a email tusk. Ivory balls, however, have now formidable rivals in ben­ zoline and other composition mate­ rials, and in regard to quite a num­ ber of articles which used to be fash­ ioned out of ivory, celluloid and bone take its place. There is little waste product from ivory. A use is found for cuttings, shavings and scraps left over after main processes have been completed. India takes large quantities of the rings left after the turning of bil­ liard balls, and uses them to make women's bangles and .small toys and models, in which the' cunning' hand of the native craftsman excels. The dust Is used In polishing and in the ' preparation of ivory (black and India ink, and I am told 'it may also be utilized a3 food in the- form of ivory jelly, a delicacy of which I have no personal knowledge.Elephants are carefuffly preserved in many districts.

X ? An old and not a -Very easy questfoif! is raised by the advice given to needy students by a Ccvrnell professor who tells them not ‘to try to work their way through college, but to. borrow what money tlney need. Each case/ has to be settled on its merits. If a man.has a ^10,000 mind and a mar­ ket for it in/ sight, it may be poor-econ­ omy to tain»time from his studies and other coll? .ge occupations to earn, mon­ ey by oftd jobs, and the extra work may eyon involve risk of a bieak- down. / On the contrary, a rugged,,in- depemjent youth, with plenty of ktreiy gth and a faculty for finding work maSi' be positively benefited by the ex­ tra/ labor of earning his way and by the stimulating sense of being out of ‘k'ebt. Yet there are many good men /who have not this faculty, and it is rather surprising that no millionaire in endowing colleges has yet planned for shops where work at a fair price could be offered to students. Steady cumulative work is educationally bet­ ter than odd jobs, and after a first year of training a student’s labor should be worth a fair wage. Whatever deficit was incurred could be charged up to vocational training. Petrified Tree Causes Big Question. Not far from the Sullivan ranch and near the junction- of Cut Bank creek and Two Medicine creek, Montana, there Is a butte, probably 450 or 500 feet abbve the surrounding country and about seven miles in circumfer­ ence, with almosti-perpendicular sides. The butte is absolutely devoid of timbers, but at one time on the sum­ mit there grew a fine straight pine tree two feet in diameter and not short of 80 to 100 feet high. Thiais proved by the fact that the tree now lips full length on the ground, cut into •two-foot lengths, the ax marks of the woodman being plainly discernible in every cut of the wood, which is now ,petrified. To fell the tree up ,hill, as was done, it had to be chopped almost entirely on the side toward which it was to fall, and the petrified stump shows that this was done. Every one of the cuts, which hint of., commercial pur­ poses for the Wood, giveB indisputable evidence of the woodman’s ax. The great wonder is in what age was the tree cut, what sort of people did the ;work and with what sort of ax? Small !Mercies. The young English tourist who had ;been staying for a week at a hotel in the Scottish highlands, for the pur­ pose of taking advantage of the fish­ ing, was, at the end of that time, rather inclined to think that the fish­ ing had taken advantage of him.

By a change in thjp by-laws of the Royal College of Physicians in Lon­ don, made In December last, says the British Medical Journal (London), the number of persons entitled to use the title of “Doctor” in Great Britain has been largely increased, although, curiously enough, the number, of qualified physicians remains precisely the same. The fact is that until this change all British physicians were not entitled to be called "Doctor.” Only those who had received the doctorial degree from a university were so en­ titled. The Royal college gives diplo­ mas to its graduates, but has no pow­ er to confer degrees. To the ordinary citizen, however, a physician is a “Doctor,” degree or no degree; and the British apostles of red tape have been obliged to bow to the popular will. The Royal College of Physicians of London, by the alteration in its by­ laws, has recognized this fact Liked the Prospects.

Cash premiums aggregating $12,- 000 are offered by the fair associa­ tion, the prizes offered covering leaf tobacco, agricultural products of all kinds, poultry, live stock, all phases of woman’s work, cul­ inary, and there will also be an E ducational Departmant in which many nice prizes are offered for work d one by the school childreu. Every premium offered will be paid to the successful exhibitor in cash. The people of this county trill be ou equal footing with those of the other counties in this section, and on the same footing with the exhibitors from Forsyth county, the fair being intended to repre­ sent the eutire section of the couu- try aud not memely a county exhibition. Great preparations are being made for the Fair this year and the indications are that it will be attended by many people from this conniy. The schedule of trains from this section to Winstou Salem will enable our people to go over in the mornings and return in the afternoon, or should they desire to remain over for the night to wit­ ness the brilliant fireworks display they will be able to catch an early morning train for home. ' As this county does not have a fair of its own, and therefore has no place to show off its many and varied products, we should see to it that this good old county has an exhibit at the Winston-Salem Fair that is worth while. A card or letter to General Manager G. E, Webb, Winston-Salem, N. O., wilT bring any one interested a catalog and premium list. There being so many Davie coun­ ty people now residents of he Twinv City, there is of course a natural bond of friendship between our people aud the Winston-Salem folks, and many of our people will take a few days off and take in the big fair the first week of October.

The writer read a few days ago l;hat every member of the faculty of a certain high school in the State had resigned and had refused to Berve another term. Dpon invest! gation it was learned that the faculty had had trouble with some of the patrons of the school. Not pupils, mark you, but parents of the pupils. This brings to mind the fact that parents of school boys and girls are making bigger fools of themselves every day. - There seems to be a growth-of sentiment that teachers must not correct students in the good old way that Solomon speaks of, and if they do, then a set of fool parents that have gonrd seed in their heads instead of brains are ready to kick up a row and do everything in their power to break ap a good school and knock their own children and those of their neighbors out of the schooling that justly belongs to them, and for the support of which every property-owner iu the com­ munity has paid his good money. Such a parent is too little to be the father or mother Of a nice respecta­ ble Berkshire pig and ought to be run out of the community. We often hear pargnts who have not more than four or five children saying that they almost run them crazy, and that they can’t manage those childrea; and then those very same parents will often wonder why it is that a teacher can’t control a room full of children from every family in the neighborhood with­ out whipping them. Teaching is a hard job under favorable ciroum- stances, and when parents refuse to co-operate with the teacher it is a proposition the like of which the old man Job never had to contend with. Good Reason for His Enthusiasm. When a man has suffered for several days with colic, diarrhoea or other form ef bowel complaint and is then cured sound and weU by'one or two doses of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the case, it is. but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise of the remedy, and especially is this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened.

The Trade and SaleB Day held in Mocksville on last; Monday-, Sept. 1st, was a big success. Sev­ eral hundred people were in town for the occasion, despite the fact that there were celebrations in various other places that day, it being Labor Day. A good number of products were on exhibit, especi­ ally the live Block. There were onions, potatoes, pumpkins, water­ melons, wheat, corn, etc., on exhi bit, besides a four-legged chicken exhibited, by T. A. Stone, of this city. There were between ten and fifteen fine colts, and a number of fancy horses. Fact is,‘ we did not know there, were so many good horses in the eounty before. The IolIowing prizes were awarded to the lucky contestants: Best wheat—VV. T. Spry, $1. Best Irish potatoes—J. L. Knr- fees, 50s. cash. Best ham—W. L. Hendren $1. Best corn, pumpkins and onions —J.

Let all those who wish to give prizes call at The Record office at once and assist in making out a list of premiums. A. M. Garwood, of Fork, says he has the consolation of knowing he has the best colt in the county, even if he did not get a prize. It is to be hoped that the country people will tnrn out in full force next month, if a sales day is held'; We want some of the farmers to bring at least 40 or 50 people to town in one wagon. Mr. McCulloch only brought 9 people to town last Monday, but be - se­ cured prizes amounting to $6 or $7.

Keep your eye on The Record for further, parti­ culars. Tfae Boy and the Cigarette—Also, The Law. . It isagainstthe laws in North Garolina for any boy under 17 years of age to smoke cigarettes. Know that? So, and what is more, any person who gives the boy a cigarette, or cigarette tobacco, as well as any one who sells the same to a boy, can be fined for the of­ fense. Still further, the law re­ quires the officers of the law— “every police officer m the state of North Carolina,” it reads—to ask the boy caught smoking to tell where he got the cigarette, and on being told, to forthwith issue a warrant for the arrest of the party so offending. If the boy refnses to tell, he shall be hauled up before a magistrate, mayor or recorder, as the case may be, and tried for a misdemeanor. The old cigarette law was amended in this stringent manner. Of course uo attention is going to be paid to it. The streets of.Charlotte are filled with urchin smoking cigarette fiends every day and the enforcement of this law would paralyze the delivery ser­ vice of the whole town, and might even break up some of the Sunday schools. But all the same, the parent who is worried by his boy smoking cigarettes has it in his power to give painfnl trouble to both the boy and the one who gives or sells him the cigarettes,—Char­ lotte Observer.

Themerchantsand business men of Mocksyille could help-The Record to make this a better town if they would try. Notmore thana third of the business men use our columns, and some of those who do use them are afraid to buy sufficient space. The Record is doing all in its power to make a better town and county, and spares no pains in trying to get country people to come here to do their trading. We believe the mer­ chants and business men should stand behind us and help along the good work. They can do this by giving us their advertising and printing. Not a lawyer, doctor, hotel,, livery­ man, blacksmith, factory or shop advertises in their county paper. No wonder the town doesn’t grow as it should. Our thousands of readers do not want to move to a town when they are made to believe the town has but three or four stores, no doc­ tors, lawyers, factories, hotels, shops, etc. The man who cares for the patronage of the public, should let the public know that he appreciates their patronage. The Record talks to 7,500 people every week. Talk is cheap—only 10 cents an inch. If business remains dull with you, don’t cuss us, kick yourself for' not adver­ tising. ANOTHER TRADE DAY. The Trade and Sales Dav held in this city last Monday week, is well worth repeating, and all with whom we have talked, are anxious that we make it a regular monthly event, PulliBg For That Forty Thousand.

The man of large means, who re gards himself with pride as an im­ portant taxpayer, usually assumes for that reason he onght' to have more to say in the direotion of the government than the man of small means. Well, if he pays more taxes, he dodges more taxes. But let that pass. Tn his relations to the State compare his services with those of the man who hasn’t had the gift of money-making. The rich man doesn’t furnish any more boys for military service in defense of his country; he doesn’t furnish so many. He doesn’t serve any oftener on the jury; indeed, he usually gets excused from jury ser­ vice. If he pays more for the sup­ port of the government, he get more out of the government. He resorts oftener to the courts. He derives tremendous advantages from organized society. His busi­ ness would be worthless if it were located in Central Africa. Finally, he takes little interest in governmental affairs, and the chances are that he fails to vote when the poor man takes pains to go to the polls. The man who swells up over the fact that he is a large taxpayer is usually not nearly as good a citizen and ought not to have as much to say about the government as the plain voter who does his duty by his family and the city. DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaness, and that' is by con­ stitutional remedies. Deaness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous Iini ng o the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im­ perfect hearing, aud when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result- and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed orcver; nine Ca 6cs out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed con dition o the mucous surfaces.

A loss of 300,000,000 bushels of corn, the nation’s greatest farm crop, has resulted from the great damage wrought by drought and other conditions since July I, is estimated by the government’s agricultural experts in their Au­ gust crop report. A total produc­ tion of 2,672,000,000 bushels of. corn was predicted. This is 452,- 000,000 bushels less than last year’s crop. The general condition of corn was placed at 75.9 per cent of a normal compared with 86.9 per cent on July I. Kansas was- hit hardest, the condition there having been reduced from 81 per cent in July to 30 per cent on August I. Oklahoma came next with a con dition of 44 against 87 in July, and Nebraska reported 67 against 91 July I. These three Slates have almost 19 per cent of the total area planted to corn this year.

Erotic feeling has characterized many dances ancient and modern, Tthile the “ G rizzly Bear” and the “Tango” of today would make the Devil blush and hesitate to intro­ duce them into hell. Salome danced John’s head off, and many have gone to their death since. There was a time Wheni statues were made of graceful dan­ c e r s —today there is a demand for statutes against disgraceful danc­ ing. The next thing in order is the naked dance proposed by Plato in liis Ideal Republic. Children are post-graduates in ragtime times and dances before they cau sing a bynin or repeat the Lord’s Prayer. The “Turkey” has trotted over the Teu Commandments and the “Grizzly Bear” has hugged the life out of Gospel ideals, The auimai world is libeled. Mr. Bear aud Mrs. Turkey were never guilty of such antics and must look with surprise and shame on the dances which bear their names. These rag dances are animal in name aud nature, as muc.h more passionate than the Oriental dance as Vesuvius is warmer than an ice- burg. The dauce has degenerated from devotion aud diversion to dissipa­ tion atid debauchery. JJag-daueers listen to sensuous iag music, and olter gaze with goatish eyes upon each other.

NUMBER 11 Common Sense, Long Sermons and Long Hymns. Presbyterian Standard^ Common sense is a very uncom­ mon quality; its name is really a misnomer, and nowhere is its ab­ sence more conspicuous than in the pulpit. How otten have we seen, on a' hot Sunday, when the congregation has patiently listened to a very long sermon, the minister add to the agony by giving out a hymn of six stanzas and asking the choir to omit none. Now preaching is an ordained means of grace, and it is used by God for the conversion of souls, but a long sermon on a hot day does not reach souls, and the preacher with common sense imi- tatea the Lord by tempering the wind to the shorn lamb. Likewise sing hymns is also a means of grace, but when a body is worn out, over­ heated and anxious to get out, into the fresh air, to have to sing through six stanzas, there is very little show for that hymn. It is apt to be a “persona non grata,” as the diplomats would esptess it. LOCAL DRUGGIST MAKES STATEMENT Says Dodson’s Uver Tone is the Beat Remedy for Constipation and Shirk­ ing Liver he has Ever Sold. Every person who Jiaa tried Dod­ son’s Liver Tone and knows how surely mid gently its starts the liver to working and relieves biliousness will bear out D. H. Hendricks & Son, Bixby1 N.C., in this statement about Dodson’s Liver Tone. “It is a purely vegetable liquid, that entirely takes the place of calo­ mel, harmless and pleasant to the taste, that has proven itself the most satisfactory remedy for a slow-work- inff liver that most of our customers have ever tried. A large bottle sell for fifty cents and we do not hesitate to give the money back to any person who tries a bottle on the strength of this statement and is not satisfied with the result.”Inthesedays of doubtful medi­ cines and dangerous drugs, a state­ment like the above is a pleasant as­surance that Dodson’s Liver Tone is a reliable remedy for both children and grown-ups. In buying a bottle for immediate or future use it is well to make sure you are getting the genuine Dodson’s Liver Tone and not some spurious imitation that has copied, our claims, but do not stand back of their guarantee. You may be certain of getting the genuine if you go to D. H. Hendricks & Son, Bixby1N. C , for it.

Encouraged by one day’s result when, accord­ ing to Governor Major, two hun­ dred miles ot new roads were built, the Missouri Good Boads Army started forth on the second day to complete the work so well begun. Reports from every county indicate that a large army is wielding the pick and shovel. In some districts farming operatings practically were suspended as the farmers decided road improvement wat the most impprtant work in whieh th^y could engage. It is a concentration of effort, general in extent, and saves the necessity of interest bear­ ing bond issues. Everybody en­ listed and went to work.

About the only way the Demo­ cratic party can run any kind of government is to run it in debt. And it seems that Governor Sulzer is another Democrat that is unworthy of the office he holds. It will soon be time for the Bev. Bobby Glenn to make 'his an­ nouncement, and it will not be hard to guess what it will be. If this is the relief the Democrats have been promising us all these years, we hope they will soon stop relieving us. If the railroads are only going to give a slight reduction on incoming freight-arid nothing on outgoing freight, they might just as well have done nothing about it at' all. It really begins io look like the Democrats are getting scared of their own tariff bill. At any rate they have begun to go mighty Blow all at oncc.—Woodrow must have heerd something “drap.” The Democratic party has al-. ready taxed the people up' to the limit of the Constitution, and now they are trying to amend the Con­ stitution in order to tax the people still higher. We think its time’to call a hault, what say you, Jeemes Franklinl Our Eemocratic friends tell us the tariff has nothing to do with the price of farm produce, lumber, etc., that scpply and demand re­ gulate prices, but we have always taken the position that the tariff, either makes or. destroys the de­ mand. At this time the lumber people have a great supply of lum­ ber on hond, but they -have very little demand,—Something wrong Nancy Jano. We don’t pretend to know what will become of this freight rate matter. The railroads don’t seem jo be willing to treat us like they do other States, and the Democratic party is'certainly not in a position to force them to come across. We have no objection to Secre­ tary McAdoo sending a few cool millions into the South West, to assist in moving‘the crop, and we don’t care a coninental what Wall Street thinks or aays about it, we say ’er come. And then we hap pen to think where in the duce would he have gotten the money if a Republiaan administration- had not collected it .under a high pro­ tective tariff law, and piled it up in the United States Treasury. The esteemed Charlotte Observer claims that the Wilson administra­ tion is responsible for the good crops this year. If it is : going to give President Wilson credit for the good crops then oe must cer­ tainly take a responsibility for the prices these crops bring.

The Blackberry Industry. -For some years the canning ol blackberries has been an extensive industry at North Wilkesboro and it is growing. A North Wilkes- boro correspondent of the daily papers thus writes of the industry; ‘;‘In all the great varieties of North Carolina’s natural resources tha wild blackberry crop in Wilkes county is maksug for itself a place among the leaders. This is a ber­ ry that “takes” the so-called old wornout fields,, roadsides, fence corners,: creek banks, etc., and thrives, defying man, beast and weather conditions, a crop every yeajr. The 1913 crop just gathered was cut short by the drought, but in spite of the continued weeks of dry. weather three North Wilkes boro dealers handled 956,000 cans, worth approximately $66,920. This is a net gain to the county and the quality of these berries is second to none, not even the cultivated variety surpassing it. They are giwd^iizMi-W^kaudofjSne^a^pr^ Next year the canners will pay $1.50 per bushel, which is 50 per cent, more than was paid by the mo9t of the dealers the past season. It would be hard to tell what an average crop would briD g if they were all saved, lor three fourths of these berries are never picked but allowed to dry up or rot on the briars. One man, A. Brown, of Mulberry . Wilkes county, says an old field which he thought was worn out was abandoned a few years ago, thinking it was of no more use, but blackberry briars sprung up voluntarily and now bring him in more cash than any cultivated crop he ever gathered from it while it was under culti­ vation. m I? L & Good Reason for His Enthusiasm. When a man has suffered for several days with colic, diarrhoea or other form of bowel complaint and is then cured sound and well by one or two doses of ChamberlainrsCoIic, ChoIeraand Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the case, it is but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise of the remedy, and especially is this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened. Try it when in need of such a remedy. It never fails. Sold by all dealers. ADVERTISEMENT. A Debatable Question.

The high cost of living remains about the same, thank you. The Democratic tariff bill has at last become a law. Now keep your eyes peeled and your ears open and watch the wave of prosperity as it rolls over'us benighted fools. There was a little election held in the state of Maine last week A Republican congressman was elected over his Democratic opponent by 500 majority. This is hews now, and the first ray of sunshine that has hit us since the Democratic cy­ clone floored us last fall. If we mis­ take not, Billy Bryan went up into Maine some two weeks ago and cam­ paigned against this lucky Republi­ can which may explain his being elected. Be that as it may, we have one more Republican in Congress and our friends, the enemy, are short one Democrat. We hope to publish lots of such happenings next November. Smith Grove News. Messrs. M.

We had to drop more than one hundred names off our subscription book last week because they were more than one year behind. We are not allowed to send the paper to those who get more than a year be­ hind. This means that we are short more than $50 on subscriptions since we revised our books in January. Were we to publish the names of these hundred odd people who have taken eur paper and failed to pay for it, there would be a number of surprised preachers as well as lay­ men. Sometimes we think it would be a good idea to publish the names of those who persistently beat the editor, provided, of course, that the editor carried heavy insurance and was backed up by a couple of good Winchesters.

DEAFNESS CANNOl BE CURED by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion ol the ear. There is only one way to cure deaness, and that is by con­ stitutional remedies. Deaness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining o the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im­ perfect hearing, and when it is en­ tirely closed, Deafness is the result- and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its 'normal condition, hearing will be destroyed orever; nine ca ses out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed con dition o the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dol lars for any case o Dea ness (caus­ ed by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send or circulars, free. Sold by Druggists, 75c. ADVERTISEMENT Big Illicit Distillery Destroyed in Yadkin In the “big woods” of South Liberty township, Yadkin county, recently, Deputy Collector Davis and Mr. Durand Davis, of States­ ville, destroyed one of the largest and best blockade distilleries they have,seen in a long time. The plant was apparently new and had just begun operations, the 125 gal: Ion still being of bright new cop­ per. About 500 gallons of -beer was destroyed along with the plant As officers drove through the woods toward the still they saw a mau standing beside the road 'looking up in a tree. He exclaimed to the “revenues” that he had “almost killed a hawk with a rock” and was then looking for it. The next person seen came from the direction of the still and appeared rather ex cited, but he claimed to know nothing of what was going on. When the officers arrived at the distillery there was no one on the premises and it is believed that the first man encountered chased off to-the distillery and notified the operators. How to Fight Bedbugs. He is particularly obuoxiour be cause he attacks when we are least able to defend ourselves, can live and whet bis appetite for warm human blood for a year or more and is so flat that Mark Twain says he “can hide between the same layer.” Itisa common mistake that bats, swallows and pigeons in­ troduces them into the house. The variety which infests them does not attack man. Wooden beds, carpets which extend to the wall and cracks in floors and baseboards afford excellent shelter. There are many poisons but the cheapest and best seems to be the liberal use of gasoline or kerosene, which are cot only cheap and penetrating but kill the eggs as well as the bedbug. They may be applied with a rag, spray or sewing maehine oil can. A word of caution as to the inflam inability of gasolene is never out of place.—Mrs. W. N. Hutt, in the Progressive Farmer.

Ihe Hcmieesee case is over and Ve Hcnnessee was acquitted by a jury menjjffell a* Uiejndge who tried the tilTlie evid en ce showed that Dr. Heimessee aud Gorman Pitts had a Jj |,t ja which Dr. Hennessee came outsecoiHl best; Hennessee swore „,„„1,1 <r0 home aud get his gun, Joiae back and kill Pitts. He home, armed himself with a Winchester, a pistol aud a large JcniIef ami in less than an hour came back. Upon seeing Erwin p i l t 8 , a brother of Gorman Pitts, pursued him 10 or 50 yards with a Winchester in oue hand and a large k n i f e in the other, threatening to IillhinifIirwinbegging him not to cut biui; but he did cut him one of the wounds being very dangerous, at which time Gor- Ban with whom Dr. Hennessee had first fought, ran up, caught Dr. Hcnuessee aud pulled him back, vrlien Heunessee turned and stab bed him, iutiicting a wound from which he died. The j ury acquitted Dr. Heuuessee. Yes, the jury turned him loose. The jury lie was guilty of nothing, jury said Dr. Hennessee had nothing but what he should done. Hovr a jury could reach a verdict on that evidence is an inquiry made by mauy good citizens, aud an iuquiry which we cannot an­ swer. Man? explain it in the fact that Henneesee is a man of wealth' and influence; able not only to em­ ploy an array of able counsel as well as a detective, but to bring to his assistance influential men. Sowerer this may .be, Dr, HenLes see goes home a free man. There was also another capital case tried at this term of court— State vs Peter Swink. Peter was charged with the murder of Plato Saine. The evidence showed that Ssiae was a bad mau, that he was drinkiug, that he went to Swink’s the day of the killing, that he per- Biiaded or compelled Swink to go with him, that when the killing occurred Saine was coming at Swink with a razor drawn,' and that Swink struck him on the head with a rock, and inflicted a wound from which he died. Swink was very promptly convicted of man­ slaughter aud sentenced to the penitentiary for live years, after­ wards reduced to three. Swink was a poor niaD. Swiok was un­ able to bring to his rescue an array of able counsel, influential men aud detectives. Swink goes to the peni tentiary. We do not say that Swink Bhould have been acquitted. We do not Bay that Hennessee should have heen convicted. But we do say ’ that in onr opin- I0Ji there vras a very much strong- er ease against Hennessee than !here was against Swink.'

Simeon Ford, the notek humor­ ist, said in praise of newspaper ad­ vertising at a , banquet in Ifew York: “There is a fable that all adver- tisiers should have be heart. It runs like this— “As a shopkeeper dozed, his head on the dusty counter of his shop, thj grey cobwebs across his door were rent apart, and a goose entered. “The shopkeeper rose with a glad smile; he thought he had a customer; but when he saw the goose he muttered axr oath. “ ‘What do you want here?” he said, ‘This is no place for geese.’ ‘Isn’t it? said the goose. ‘Quack, quack!’ And it Regarded the shop­ keeper derisively, theu went on: “ ‘I’ve come, my dear sir, be­ cause I saw your advertisement on the fence that encloses our barn­ yard. I knew that you must be a ose—or else a donkey—because otherwise you would place your advertisement iu a newspaper, where it would be read by huma, beings, and not upon an isolated fence, where it is only read by doukeys and geese and other barn yard denizens. So, being lonely today, I thought I’d make you a fraternal call. A couple of donks will probably drop in later. Quack, quack!’ ” How the Trouble Starts.

Secretary McAdoo in respose to the'resolution estimates that the goyernmeut wil} lose at least $10, 000,000 should the goods now stored in warehouses be allowed Io come in under the proposed duties of the Underwood bill* instead ol being taxed under the present law.

As was to have been expected, the Lexington Djspatch is kicking a- gainst the proposition to give For­ syth, Davie and Iredell that federal road building fund. Ourfriend Var­ ner actually has the«ierve to propose that the fund be spent in Davidson county. There is a text which reads: “For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abund­ ance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.” How can the peop!e of Davidson county ask the government to spend a cent for roads in their community, when they flatly refused to endorse the proposition for their county to issue bonds to build roads? On the other hand, the people of Davie county have voted bonds to build roads, the people of Forsyth are spending thousands every year in the construction of better roads and have been for years; so are the people of Iredell. Once more would we refer to Mr. Varner, and Gover­ nor Craig as well, to the words of Jesus two thousand years ago, the principle enunciated which has stood the test of the centuries.—Winston Journal. POOR OLD DAVIDSON. Forsyth, Davieand Iredell counties sent delegations to Raleigh last week to insist upon Governor Craig spend­ ing the entire $40,000 appropriated by Congress for road experiments in North Carolina on a highway to con­ nect Winston with Statesville, thus changing the course of the State Central Highway and at the same time changing the New York to At­ lanta highway—better known as the national, highway. Davidson and other counties interested are fight­ ing the proposition and hope to have the money divided so that Davidson county will at least get some im­ provement. When Davidson will not help herself, she ought not ex pect the national government to do so.—Mooresville Enterprise. A second conclusion. ' In protest­ ing against this change the Lexing­ ton Dispatch, hoping to gain sym pathy from Mooresville, said that Statesville ought not to ask for the change as it would deprive Moores- ville of the Gentral Highway. In the first place the majority of the travel from the South for the Cen­ tral Highway will always come by Mooresville, regardless of the desig­ nation of the route: In the next place the change of the national high­ way from Winston-Salem via Mocks- ville, Statesville and Mooresville, will of caurse give Mooresville much more than it could possibly lose by any change in the route of the Cen tral Highway. — Statesville Land­ mark. dairy cows, etc.2.

It is proposed. to co-operate with schools to teach dairy farming principles and the Care of milk and dairy cattle, not only to the pupils in the school, bat any one else who desires to come in. To carry on this work, we ask the co-operation of the teacher and school trustees, and ask that the larger part of, the day be given over to Ihe dairymen who will take charge of the school .one day of> each !calendar month during the school year, in all taking from five to seven visits to complete the course. To the schoolgranted this course in dairying, we will loan four milk scales with record blanks and books for keeping record of the pro­ duction of cows throughout the school year. The school will also be loaned a babcock tester for determ­ ining the butterfat in the milk. Es timates of profits may. be made with the assistance of the teacher.

The Cole Drill works equally well on prepared land or between the rows of cotton or other crops. You can get it with Fertilizer Attachment or without it. The Cole never fails to sow any kind of oats. It works smoothly and never gives any trouble. It^has two wheels in the rear not shown in the picture, which carry the Drill when going to or from the field, and also regulate the depth of the plows. It sows either two rows or three rows of grain at each trip.' . ' With the Cole Drlli you can save five-sixths of the time and ex­pense of sowing grain. . The .way to do is to sow grain between rows of 'cotton or other crops. Land that has been cultivated all summer is in fine condition frr growing grain without any further preparation.You can sow the grain at the right time without any damage to cotton even if it is so rank that it meets in the middle.. Early sowing not only makes a sure crop but a bigger yield. Gathering the crop does no damage to the grain and running a stalk cutter in the winter or spring does the grain more good than harm. Like all Cole machines they are fully guaranteed’ and you are sure to get good value or get your money back..The prices are as low as the quality of the machines would permit and the prices are the same to. everybody.

Dog days have been fruitful of many killing in the State. Thelike has never been known, In the ab secce of anything else it is as well to charge it up to dog days. The fact we have these dog days every year, with veny few killings is no reason why it should not be said that they are the cause. Timper, liquid, cocaine and the like have more to do with it than anything else.—Greensboro Record. Good Reason for His Enthusiasm. When a man has suffered for several days with colic, diarrhoea or other form of bowel complaint and is then cured sound and well by one or two doses of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the case, it is but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise of the remedy, and especially is this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened.

DESPAIRING WIFE After Fonr Years of Discouraging C<mditions, Mrs. Bollock Gave UpinDespair. Husband . Came to Rescue. Catron, Ky,-In an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows: “I suffered for four years, with wcmanl^troubles, and during- this time, I could only sit up for a little while, and could not walk anywhere at all. At Ones, Iwouldhaveseverepains in my left side. The doctor was called In, and his treat­ ment relieved me for a while, but I was soon confined to my bed again. After that, nothing seemed to do me any good, I had gotten so weak I could not stand and I gave up in despair. At last, my husband got me a boaie o! Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com- menced taking it From the very Brst <Jose; I could tell it was helping me. j can now walk two miles without its tiring me, and am doing all my work.” If you are all run down from womanly troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try Cardui, the woman’s tonic. Ithashelped more than a million women, in its 50 years of continuous success, and should surely help you, too. Your druggist has sold Cardui for years.
