On a Boom.

On a Boom.
THE SENTINEL, like the town of
Winston, is on boom. This paper
was never on a firmer basis nor more
prosperous than it is to-day-and, if
we do say it ourselves, it was never
so good paper as now. People are
realizing this fact, hence our boom.
And business men appreciate it as by
far the best advertising medium in
this section.
Remember, The SENTINEL is read
by more people than any other paper
in the 5th Congressional district.
Our local circulation is much larger
than any other weekly, and fully as
large as, if not larger than, any pa
per, daily or weekly, and our coun-
try and mail circulation is far ahead
of any paper in the district. The
SENTINEL circulates all over this
State, going to nearly every post
office in ten Piedmont counties, and
is taken by hundreds of people in lat
least fifteen other States. We have
subscribers in California, Texas, Col
orado, Dakota, Washington Terri
tory, Florida, Indian Territory, Ida
no, Virginia, Georgia, Indiana, Hi
nois. Washington City, New York,
Chicago, Baltimore, Richmond, Nash
vile, and so on, ad infnitum.
If you are a shrewd business
man, you will advertise in THE SEN
TINEL. Itmeans money in the pocket
of every man who does.

that we will do SO long as you pay

There is report out in this section
that two men came up here to buy to-
baceo. AS the report goes their main
object was to find out the amount OF
fine tobacco there was unsold. They
went to five place, and saw about
five thousand pounds of good to-
bacco. They went back to Winston
and reported thousands of pounds OF
fine tobacco unsold. The boys must
have been excited or bad Judges.
There is not a barn Of fine tobacco
about here. There are few good
barns, but nothing fine, at least two
thirds has been sold.

An Excellent Lady pounded"

The many friends of Mrs NJ. j.
Dodson (and their name is legion)
the widow of the late Rev. C. c. bod
son, who served so efficiently and ac-
ceptably as pastor of Centenary M. E.
Church, this city, gave her a heavy
pounding last Thursday night.
A wagon load of goods, both use
full and ornamental, were left by a
large circle of friends at the residence
of Rev W c. Norman, and after
wards conveyed to the residence OF
Mrs. Dodson, where several of her
more intimate friends had a short
time previously gathered.
The pounding was a complete
surprise to Mrs. Dodson, who was
visibly affected by this kindly evil
dence of the friendship and esteem OF
so many of her acquaintance, and
she desires, through THE SENTINEL
to tender her Sincere thanks to the
donors.

When To Set Tobacco Plants.

A most successful tobacco-grower,
Col. R. B. Davis, of Hickory, gives
the following advice:
The tobacco plant requires usually
100 days from the time it is trans
planted to grow and ripen properly.
To secure the best results, therefore,
the planting should not be earlier
than the 10th of May, and if posi-
BILE not later than the Goth of June
In the one case the plant is likely to
be stunted in its early growth, as
well as deprived of the dews of Au
gust and September; and in the other
there is danger that it may not have
time to mature fully before frost.

ACID PHOSPHATE!

Ask your friends who bought
it, how they like it. They all
tell us that it's doing better
than other and higher priced
goods. Our price will only be
$i.s5 per bag, while the same
class of goods, sold by other
parties last fall, at from $50
to $500, is now $2.l5 to 1925.
Our terms will be strictly Cash
We don't feel like selling it to
our friends on time, when it
would cost them about 20 per
cent interest. Beware of those
who pose as your friends, by
offeringto sell you on time. The
credit system is only a cunning
device, used by some fertilizer
companies to make a something
out of nothing. You had bet
ter borrow the money at 6 or
8 per cent, aud pay cash for
your fertilizer, than to buy on
time at 20 per cent.
Be sure to see us; it is to
our interest to give you good
goods; we cannot afford to sell
you anything that we believe
to be worthl sit would in
jure us. We believe, candidly,
that we offer a line of goods as
good as anybody's costing from
20 to 40 cents per bag more
See your friends, club together
and buy by the ton.

DR.. Bobbitt's Condition.

The many friends of Rev. DR.. w. H.

stricken with paralysis at Rocking
ham, and who was two weeks ago
removed to the residence of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. II. c. Ashcraft, of this city,
will be glad to learn that he is stead
lily improving and that strong hopes
are now entertained of his permanent
recovery. DR.. Bobbitt is still confin-
ed to his bed, but uses both his hands
and says he could spend some of his
time in sitting up, but that he suffers
from nausea when in an erect posi-
ton This, however, is owing to the
effects of the medicine he is taking
and will be only temporary.
