RATES TO ROANOKE ISLAND BY
S. A. /. RAILWAY

Members of the Roanoke Island Cele-
bration Committee and parties going to
Roanoke Island to attend the public eX-
ercises held there on the Gath of July
can buy round trip tickets to Old Point
Comfort, Va, from Raleigh for $S25 by
the Seaboard Air Line Railway and ar
rangements can be made to have the
tickets stamped at Portsmouth on re-
turn trip, therefore it will not be neces-
sary to go to Old Point. 1t is also un-
derstood that reduction of rates has
been secured from Norfolk to Elizabeth
City and thence to Skyco on Roanoke
Island.
The schedule from Raleigh to Eliza
beth City is as follows:
Leave Raleigh ............... l:35 a. m.
Arrive Portsmouth .......... 7:15 a. M
Leave Norfolk 1000 a. m.
Arrive Elizabeth City, ......11 So a. m,
Connection is made at Elizabeth City
for Skyco on Roanoke Island. You could
leave Raleigh at 10: 05 a. m. and arrive
at Portsmouth at 5:35 p. m, but this
would make it necessary to spend the
night at Norfolk and take the same train
at 1000 a. m. for Elizabeth City the
following morning.

Some in this vicinity have lost
some cattle during the recent cold

feeding stock on wheat straw and
nothing else for they cannot live
on this straw alone but II you feed
something else with 1t it will then
pass as roughness, but for them to
live on 1t u lone is a great mistake.
There is no nutrition about this
wheat straw for when We have to
almost starve an animal before he
will eat 1t, its an evident fact be-
fore our minds that there's nothing
about 1t that affords much nurish-
ment. Its a great wonder to me
that there hasn't been moro straw
fallen cattle than there has been,
but the time is coming for the
worst between now and spring.
The people should take care of
their stock after getting this far
