Fences.

How much fencing is there III North
Carolina? There are several ways of
arriving to at least an approximation OF
the correc c: answer to this interrogatory.
For the purposes of this brief article
we will choose only one, and the
simplest. The ; ate is divided
into nin@ty-three counties, averaging
to the county, al area OF 529 square
miles or % miles square To enclose a
county % miles square, would require
90 miles Of fencing, worth about S125
to the mile, which gives Sl1, 500 as the
cost of fencing i'll the average county.
While 10 definite calculation of the
amount of c~rOss-fencing needed al be
given, it would be safe to multiply this
sum by 10, and we get Sll5, 900 +
Sill, 800 1926. 800, as the total cost of
the fencing for the average county.
Now multiply 1926, 800 by SO coun-
ties, and the re, ult is Sll, 164, 800, as the
aggregate cost of the fencing of North
Carolina. To keep up this, must cost at
least ten per cent. on the original outlay,
OF Sill, 645.
According to the last annual report of
the Auditor, the valuation of the cattle
in the State is 50, $50, 100 sheep, $457,-
81 and hogs, Sl,476, 5SS giving a
total of s, 81, G19. Eleven millions Of
dollars elpcn ed to fence out five mil
lion dollars worth of stock Is that
wisdom? Is it best for the people at
large? Is it not rather an unnecessary
expenditure of money, which is pecu-
liarly burGcasome in these hard times?
There a. "ther reasons for changing
our fence ", besides those adduced
from the en- 1nou5 cost of building and
keeping up fences. Prominent among
these reasons is the heavy loss of timber
involved il. ,neir construction, repairing
and renewal. Our magnificent forests
are slowly, but gradually and surely dis
appearing before the aXe. The import
ance of preserving our timber is we'll
known 70 ali rejecting minds. Several
of our leading men have pressed the
subject upon he attention of the public.
We cannot o more than barely sug-
geSt the matter to the consideration of
our readers. Nor have we space to even
touch the ;.rgumentS in favor of Il no
fence law t. be derived from these con-
so-wit That the fencing in
of stock re -ults il it's improvement; that
the supply of manure on each farm is
increased ta.at land not pastured by
stock improves; that no man has a moral
right to turn his stock upon his neigh
land, although he may have the
right to do SO; and, lastly, that the
experience Of other States and countries
teach us tie folly of the long-exploded
idea of fencing ont stock instead of
it n -Neus.

Murder Will Out.

Yesterday we received an account of
a confession made by an old man living
in CaSwell county about ten miles from
1anceyyille, which is strange and hor-
rible, and which adds still another to
the long list of illustrations of the old
saying, ''Murder will OUT We give
the main facts of the statement as given
to us, emitting the names OF the parties
implicated in the commission of the
dark and bloody deed, until we can re
ceive a complete, detailed and thor
oughly authenticated report of it.
Some forty or fifty years ago there
lived in the Northern part of Orange
county o Alamance, near the CaSwell
line, a misery old man, who was possess
ed of some property and a large family of
children. About the time mentioned.
a pedlar. with a horse and wagon, and
a fine stock of goods, stopped to stay
all night at the old mans.
In the night the old man, assisted by
his two son murdered the pedlar by
cutting his tnr1a,. They then burned
the pedlars "ouy and his morse IN a
barn on the premises, and 10 avert al
suspicion from themselves. told their
neighbors that the barn had been fired
by some one to injure them. They
then o possession of the money. six
hundred dollars, and the goods belong
ing to their murdered victim.
The old miser died many years ago.
and n of the sons who assisted in the
terrible work of that night, died some
three or four years ago. The remain
ing one OF h three participants in the
crime is how living. Some time ago he
was stricken with paralysis, and as he
is about to die, he makes the confession
above set forth.
We are further informed, that some
time ago, a person who now owns the
place on which the murder occurred,
IN tearing down an old back shed of the
house, found part of a pedlar's q
celled up IN the roof. 1t Is also stated
that there was a singularity about the
old man mt his two sons. They avoid
ed association with others and lived to
themselves, having all the appearance of
being very unhappy.
The information, of which the forego-
ing Is a bare outline, is derived from A
correspondent in Alamance county.

the old man who murdered the ped
