False chemical p~reservatives and
coloring matter are most largely
used. The preservatives n used in
putting up so-called %jellies, jams, etc.
For example, the makers of bogus
food stuffs take starch paste and
treat it so as to make it jelly, color
it with aniline dye, made from coal
tar, preserve it with salilylic acid or
formaldehyde, and sweeten it with
saccharine, which, though it costs
$40 a pound, is 500 times sweeter
than sugar and is hence cheaper.
Now don't that make a fine jelly? AL
such foods ought to be destroyed by
law and the makers boycotted.

About the Mecklenburg Declaration.

The criticism of President Roose-
velt's allusion to the Mecklenburg
Declaration of independence as a
fact of history by the Baltimore
American has provoked quite a dis
cussion among papers of the North.
VIM. Macon Coleman has brought
out an interesting fact in connection
with the Mecklenburg Declaration.
the existence of which was denied by
the Baltimore paper. In an article
in a local paper, Mr.. Coleman says:
Through the courtesy of the
Commissioners Of Pensions, I was
permitted to examine the papers in
the ease of General Joseph Graham,
of Mecklenburg County, North Car
DINA, General Graham was the faith
of Mr.. William A. Graham, Gov
ernor of the State, afterward Seer
tary of the Navy, and then candidate
for Vice-President. In making his
declaration for pension in 1882, as
an officer of the North Carolina
troops in the Revolutionary War,
General Graham, among other
things, declares:
"'Was present in Charlotte on the
Doth day of May, 1915, when the com
mittee of the county of Mecklenburg
made their celebrated declaration of
independence (underscored in origi-
naD from the British crown

Agricultural Conditions Refected-Some
Views on Educational Matters.


Views on Educational Matters.
The annual report of Hon. III. B.
Warner, Commissioner of Labor and
Printing, is rapidly nearing compile
ton, and will be one of the most COM
plete and valuable ever issued. The
agricultural statistics we're complet-
ed and sent to the printers yester-
day. They constitute the first chap
ter of the report. The following
preface to the chapter as it will ap-
pear in the report will be of inter
est:
"The following average tables are
compiled from blanks filled out by
representative farmers from every
county in the State. The farmers
always respond promptly. In this
chapter we also publish letters show
ing the needs and conditions of farm
labor.
"The returns were received during
the period from July 1 to October 1,
1902, which explains difference in
selling price of cotton and other
products shown in table No. 5.
"Table No. /, shows an increase in
value of land in sixty-fve counties,
a decrease in two, and no change in
thirty. Eighty counties report fer
tility of land maintained, and seven
teen not maintained. Sixty-nine
counties report tendency to smaller
farms, nine to larger, and nineteen
no change. Seventy-two counties re-
port labor scarce, twenty-five plenty,
and three abundant. Ninety-three
report negro labor unreliable, two
reliable, and two no negro labor.
Fifty-six counties report employ
ment regular, and forty-one not reg
ular.
"Table No. 2, shows cost of living
increased in ninety-fve counties, and
no increase in two counties. Highest
average wages of men $15.49, lowest
1912; highest wages of women
$1O.O8, lowest 1851; wages of chill
dren 1851. Fifty-seven counties re-
port increase of wages and forty no
increase.
"Table No. 3 shows s~ixty-eight
counties produce cotton at average
cost of $27.57 per 500 pound bale;
seventy-fve produce wheat at sixty
six cents per bushel; ninety-six pro-
duce corn at forty-six cents per bush
ell; ninety-two produce oats at thir-
ty-three cents per bushel; ~ffty-eight

Charlotte Observer, 22nd: Unless
there is an improvement In the mat
ter of registration before Saturday,
the M~ecklenburg vote will be a light
one. At the present rate, it is esti-
mated that only 5000 votes will be
polled in the county, while a full reg

number. So far as learned, not a
dozen negroes in the whole county
have registered.

Few people have any idea of the
amount of tobacco that is being pur-

the American Tobacco Company

goes direct to the farmers. Each
month this company sends over two
million dollars into the pockets of
the farmers.-Durham Herald.

UNITED STATES MINIS,
Some Big Shortages that Have DC
Cured in Their History.

This shortage of 100000 is not the
any means, but it's the biggest in recent
times
So said George T.. Roberts. director
of the United States mints. in the mat
ter of Walter \. Dimmick. who Is Mt
present before the bar charged with
the theft Of the aforementioned sum
from the mint in San Francisco.
"The San Francisco mint holds the
record. The largest shortage in my
recollection was found in this very
town away back in the sos: it amount
ed. | believe, to some 100000. In
Carson ten years ago $4,000 was
stolen from the mint. and more recent
ly New Orleans lost $25, This
however is the biggest one in recent
years"
Mr.. Roberts says the San Francisco
mint leads in the output of money, so
far as value goes. but Philadelphia
turns out the greater quantity of frac-
tional silver, nickels and pennies.
Mr. Roberts is enthusiastic about
the new Philadelphia mint, which was
first occupied last November.
1T is the largest and best mint in the
world he says. "A mechanical expert
was sent to England, France and Ger
many TO learn the most efficient meth
DDS in use We have successfully test
ed the new machinery and expect soon
to use the same kind in the other minis.
pirate $4,000 for n new equipment for

coinage presses will serve very well;
the great and important improvements
are in the machinery that rolls and
prepares the metal"
