IN MEMORIAN,

On the 4th Of October, 1878, at Riv-
erside. at the residence of her on,
Hon. r. B. Vance, in the county of
Buncombe. there died Mrs. Margaret
Nj. Vance, in the seventy-SiXth year
Of her age.
In many respects she was an extra
ordinary woman; and considering. as
the wise will consider. the influence
which by means of her children she
has quietly exercised in shaping the
destinies and controlling the welfare
of our State, her memory as well de-
serves to be honOred among North
Carolinians as that of any more active
and prominent citizen. She was born
on the 22d of December. 1902, and was
of that famous Scotch-IrlSh stock
which did so much to establish the
liberties of North Carolina and to pro-
mote her christianity and civilization.
Her father was the late LebulOn Bard,
a Scotch-New Jersey settler, who was
among the frs. to find a home beyond
the Blue Ridge on the French Broad,
and who represented Buncombe county
for many wears in the Legislature. Her
mother was Hannah Erwin, of that
numerous and influential family of
Irish descent. still claiming Burke
county as their tribal home, but with
members scattered al over the West
and South. She received only such
an education as the imperfect schools
of Buncombe county Of that day al
forled. Her earliest schoolmates,
among others of worth and prominence
were the late GOV. Swain. of our State,
and Gov. Perry, of South Carolina
In 1922 she joined the Presbyterian
Church. with which her ancestors on
both sides had been COZ ,ected for
many generations and on the 2d day
Of January. 1926, she was married to
Capt. David Vance, late of Buncombe
county. She pore her husband eight
children-four sons and four daugh-
tiers. The latter are all living and
married: of the SON only two survive.

Deaths Shining Marx.
Continued.

At the Governors residence in this
city. during the glorious sunset hour
on Sabbath evening, fell asleep, in
painless translation from earth, and
its sorrows, Mrs. Zebulon Il. Vance. a
lady known and esteemed throughout
all the State. She was born in Sails
bury, July II, 1882, a daughter Of the
late Rev. Thomas Espy. Of the Pres
byterian church; to which faith she
united herself in her sixteenth year,
and adhered until the moment of her
death, with all the conviction of a
~courageou and devoted mind. For sew
eral years she has been in infirm
health: and during the past six months
her sutferings were great,-and hope
less. Yet the end came as a surprise
to many of her friends; a regret to all.
On Monday evening, the casket, beau
tifully decorated with floral offerings
from friends. was borne to a special
car; Maj. McPheeters, II. II. Battle,
Mai. Tucker. Col. Polk, Judge Smith,
Maj. Bagley. Ii. y. Gudger and Capt.
Stamps, acting as pallbearers. Ac-
c~Ompanying the Governor, and his
sons Charles and Robert, were Rev.
DR.. Atkinson, Maj. McPheeters, Col.
Polk, Maj. Tucker, Mr.. Gudger, Miss
Baird, Miss Lavine Haywood. and
Misses Placide and Rosabelle Engle-
hard. Rev. DR.. Miller, and Charlotte
friends, joined the cortege at Sails
bury, where President Wilson awaited
it with a special train on his road. At
Henry's station coaches were taken
for Asheville, where the funeral ser
vices were conducted yesterday. by
Rev. DIR. Miller, the Charlotte pastor
and special friend Of the deceased, as
sisted by DR.. Atkinson. Doubtless
the funeral was largely attended by
the people of Asheville who held Mrs.
Vance as one of their people.

seen, at an average cost of n bile OF

expended Sill, 100, to say nothing
of the increased amount of chemicals
used in composing during the present
year.
FISH PROPAGATION.
Whatever of incredulity may have
existed among our people as to the
practicabllity of restocking our
streams with fish by means of artifi-
cial propagation, has been dispelled
by successful demonstrations in our
experiments during the past season.
Our ability to perform this important
work is no longer questioned, and with
effective laws for the protection of the
fish we may confidently hope for the
best results. The rapidity with which
many of our smaller streams are fll-
ing up, and the erection of dams which
obstruct the passage of fish, will force
us, in future, to look to our lakes,
bays, sounds and rivers for u chief
supply. This being so, a just regard
for the interests of the public will de-
mand such leg Station as will foster
and protect the work and secure TO our
citizens full share of its benefits.
The results of our operations at Avo-
ca during the Spring were highly sat
isfactory. Our greatest impeachment
was the want of rapid and convenient
transportation for the fry, but every
facility possible rendered by the
Chowan Steamboat Company and the
different railrC ad companies.
Mr.. S. CT. Worth was employed and
charged with experimenting the dis
trioution of of the fry in our waters.

GENTLEMEN No meeting of Your
body having been held since thS be
ginning of the first quarter Of the
present year, the report which | now
have the honor to submit must neces-
sarily embrace the operations of the
Department since that time.
FERTILIZERS.
Manufacturers shipped their f%ertiii-
Zers only as the requirements
of the spring trade demand
ed hence, with our most assidu-
Gus efforts we were unable to have
the analysis made and published until
the latter part of the month of May.
Our farmers are beginning to rely very
greatly on the published analyses of
our Chemist, as a guide in their pur-
chases, and to accommodate this de-
mand for information, | shall cause all
the analyses hitherto made TO be pub
lished in ample time to aid them in
their selections. 1t is gratifying to state
that the details arranged by the De
partment for regulating the analyses
and sale of fertilizers, have not only
proved effective in accomplishing the
designs of the Act, but nave been
alike satisfactory to the farmers and
manufacturers. AS yet but one in
stance of the violation of the law has
come to my knowledge. During the
month of March last, it was discovered
that a lot of one hundred and forty
bags of Guano had been shipped into
the State for sale, which had not been
licensed | promptly ordered its
seizure in compliance with the
law. To guard more e~tfectually
against a repetition of the offence,
| Sent to each Sheriff in the State a list
of all the brands licensed, and copies
of the same to each licensed manufac-
turer for supplying their local agents.
In compliance with an order of your
body the services of Mr.. George War
necke have been secured as Assistant
Chemist. He is now on duty at the
Station and pr. LedouX has announced
to the public the completion of arrange
ments for more extended work at the
Experimental Station.
From the date of the ratification of
the Act (March 18th, 1917 to the 1st
of January last. reports from the va
rious Railroad and Steam Boat Com
panies showed that 16, 949 tons of
Commercial Fertilizers had been ship
ped into the state.
During the present year the ship
NETS reported are as follows:

LEGISLATIVE HUMBuooERy. - The
House and Senate at Harrisburg have
agreed that all general bills pending
at the adjournment shall be re-intro-
dnced, and that all local bills shall re
main on the calendar and be consider
ed as though there had been no ad-
journment. This rule establishes two
conflicting principles and makes the
session both a new and oontinu,
cd one. The Senate, which insisted
that the session was q new one, has
conceded that, as to local bills, it is q
continued session, and the House,
which took the ground that ii was a
continued sossion, has decided that Il
is new one as to general bills. The
compromise Is legal and legislative
absurdity. The adjournment, as we
have said before, was just the same in
law as though it had been for only q
week or even day; and what would
be thought if the Legislature, after
having adjourned for week or day
should agree to throw oil general bills
off the calendar and take up only the
local bills2 The present Legislature
has placed private above public inter
ests, and each house has stultifed itscl
and violated principle of parliament
airy law that is as palpable and plair
us u pikestaf.
