Steam Power as an Aid to the
AQriculturiSt

Nothing has probably done more to
advance the interests Of the planters
than the introduction of steam en-
gines for threshing, ginning, &c, and
the time Is not far distant when every
farmer OF intelligence and enterprise,
will supply himself with one of these
indispensable adjuncts. Great care
should be taken to procure the best
and simplest machine of this kind,
and 10 buy from houses of established
reputation, especially those who are
doing what they can TO build up the
resources of the South. Such house
we believe will be found in the we'll
known firm of VIM. E. Tanner & Co.
of Richmond, Va.
The machinery built by these gen.
tlemen is largely used in this State
and gives universal satisfaction.

son, and if there is no disaster, you
will see flour cheaper than before,
since the war The farmers are very
much interested in sheep raising if it
was not for dogs and if the Legisla-
ture does not legislate on this subject
they will not please the people. Two
worthless ours got in among my goats
few nights ago, and had two nearly
killed when | awoke. l merely men

the dogs will kill all the sheep, then
the goats, hogs and geese, if there is
nothing done to check them. 1 am
sorry to say it, but there is more dogs
down here than any other one thing
we have not had any eggs for break
30 to 40 hens, too.

meeting at Honeycuts's store on the
21th of April. There is one j C.. Par
rish, in this Township, who was in
dicted for stealing hogs, sheep, &C., in
some six or eight bills. He was tried
in Wake Criminal Court some time
during last year, and found guilty,
when it was taken up to the Supreme
Court by his council, and some error
was found and he was acquitted,
and turned out of Jail. Since
then he has been in his old neigh
borhood, and had some difficulty
with Mr.. Ransom Gulley his father-in-
law in regard to claiming his children,
He went to Gulley's house in his alb
sence. and carried off one Of his chill
dren. after being ordered not to 20 to
Gulleys 8, he was carried before a JUS
tice of of the peace, but it was COM

Parrish agreeing to leave, but has not
left as yet. A Ogburns mill and gin
was burned few nights ago: Parrish
was arrested upon suspicion, and tried
before Magistrate when his mother
came forward, and swore an albi
when he was released. One of the old
est men in our township says he lives
in fear of his life, or property, every
hour or day, this old man, j ohm v Young
was one of fha yifpaCCoC w n n tAet Il e6
against Parrish when the case was

WANTED! WANTED Short. prac-
teal articles suggestin. methods of
making and keeping in repair, our
North Carolina public roads. The
condition of the highways of any
country is the best test of its thrift
progress and prosperity. Farming
will never pay where roads are bad.
Poor roads keep the farmers poor, be-
cause after the crop is made the mar
gin of profit Is small, and if it be still
further reduced by breaking down an
$50 wagon, or lameing a 1926 horse.
the cash balance at the end of the
year will hardly pay for the children's
schooling. Many farmers take little
interest in the condition of the roads:
although they might as well throw
$50 or 800 every year into the fire as
to leave the roads in bad order. 1t is
estimated that farm having a good
road to market is worth from 81 m
$40 more per acre. than one whose
outlet is hardly passable after davs
rain. Northern men always take into
consideration the state of the public
roads, when they are seeking Southern
farms. How long will our people re
main blind to these facts: We urge
our thinking men and practical work
ers. to give us their ideas on the SUBJ
ject: out lining the best methods for
making good road, and keeping 1t in
repair.
