R0BEsoN's CHIEF TOWN.
Lumberton's Sturdy People, Growing indus
tries and Many Notable Advantages

Especial to the News and Observer.)
Lumberton, N. c., August 29.-The
town of Lumberton lies to the east of
Lumber river, stream famous, among
other things, for the Robin perch,
species of the finny tribe most delicious
as a table dish.
For six years, beginning about twen-
ty years ago, I made frequent trips
here as travelling salesman, making
many fast friends. These visits ceased
just fourteen years ago and yet I was
hardly prepared for the change wrought
by time. The Lumberton of today sur
passes in every way the Lumberton OF
any previous year, and her $500 people
have every encouragement to press with
vigor on. Growth and development is
everywhere evident and the health of
the town is so good as to give her
splendid corps of physicians case OF
the blues. Indeed the death rate is so
small that the census bureau returned
the reports for correction, believing it
hardly possible; however, reports were
returned verified. This condition is no
doubt due in large measure to the
excellent drinking water here. Within
the town limits are some eight artesian
wells. reaching a depth of several hum
derd feet. The water of these has
been sent to the State chemist ana
bacteriologist with most satisfactory
results. In the first instance the water
was so nearly sterile as to fetch back
the statement, too good, send another
sample in the steriled bottles sent"
only to bring again the report too
good"
Besides appetizing these waters are
sleep producing. / am told for torpid
liver or in kidney trouble they are most
excellent. The wells are on almost an
air line with the noted Seven Springs,
each situated on the banks Of the river.
Lumberton is the chief town of the
county ofRobeson made famous in the
wording Of single message flashed
over the wires: Hold Robson and
save the State" Also by the noted
Lowry swamp angels. The soil
is fertile, producing excellent cot
ton, corn, tobacco, etc. The peo-
pie are Industrious and generous to

Wilmington, N. c.. August 29.-Passing
through Our City by the Sea-" stumbled
on to some facts that may be read with
interest. Wilmington has not developed
with her advantages and yet, there is
steady growth. Homes are rapidly being
erected but not fast enough to meet de-
mands. There is marked Improvement in
her business houses and while there is
dealer to every seventy of her population,
yet business is by no means over-done,
certainly not in a jobbing way; while a
great trucking vicinity the list of buck
sters there are only one to every 62S of
her population. The city has numerous
boarding houses, but only one hotel to
every $4,000 residents, not to speak of
the floating population.
There is marked increase in property
values over the preceding year. This in
crease in round figures is a million and a
quarter of dollars, of which, a hundred
thousand is real estate. There is a de-
crease in money on hand Of hundred
thousand dollars, due to the fact that
savings from income, already taxed, is
not assessed. This rule also applies to
profits in real estate, also taxed. 1t is
thought this rule while in force, is an
erroneous construction.
In the city are five government build
ings, i've county buildings, the five school
buildings not included. The city owns six
fire department buildings, three market
houses (annual rental from these $4,000,
city hall and opera house. There are
three cemeteries for whites, one fer col
cred, one for paupers. OF these Oak
dale, is surpassed in beauty by none per-
haps In the country.
Some idea of the city's property interest
is given in the fact that one Million seven
hundred and fifty thousand dollars is the
exemption from public buildings.
The city needs more manufacturing in
dustries The number is limited to one
grist mill. four lumber plants, one mould
ing factory one planning mill and mould
ing factory combined. one carriage fac
tory, one cart and wagon factory, one
barrel and crate factory, one tar ard oil
refinery, one cloth bag factory, one cotton
factory, two turpentine distillepies, one
bottling establishment fer soft drinks.

to specified depots situated near rail-
roads everywhere, where the opera
ton Of examination and classification
Is effected automatically by a very
ingenious apparatus consisting Of q
dark chamber for examination by
transparency and n long table for
classification. In the first process the
eggs are placed in cups iointed to an
endless belt. This carries them into
boxes giving them rotary motion.
The belt is actuated by the operator
In the dark chamber through the
agency Of small hand wheel at his
right, while to his left there is n
drawer for the reception of defective
eggs. Under the eggs as they pass
through this chamber there is a lamp.
The operator consequently simply
glances along the rows as they pass
him, and is able Mt once to detect
bad one without inspecting each one
separately, making the examination at
the same time accurate and quick.
The classifying apparatus consists
Of an inclined table, one extremity Of
which is for certain length covered
with felt Here the eggs are deposited
and then slid by girls over the glass
surface which covers the balance Of
the table. This portion Is provided at
places, here and there, with parallel
bars that arrest the different sizes as
they pass along. If any lodge be-
tween these bars they are taken out
and put in special receptacles that
flank these spaces. Four girls, it is
said can classify and pack with the
device 1440 ergs In ten minutes. They.
with one examiner, FIVE in all, make
the whole labor force necessary for
the operation Of one OF these depots.

often wise to recommend the large

may be secured for grouping in corners

without making the small space seem
crowded, and for suburban lawns
