Of Work Done.

To the Editor: Elections under special
acts of the last Legislature for graded
schools in Alamance county were held on
May 4th and 5th. There were nine of
these elections, and the result is highly
gratifying.
At Graham 1t was almost unanimous,
only four votes against it. At Haw River
there was only one against it. At Mebane
it was unanimous. At Haw Fields there
was active opposition but it won by a
single vote. At Spring, Swan and Friend
ship there We're good majorities in ia
vor of the schools, but at the two other
places, Oakdale and lakewood the oppo-
sition became so strong at the last of
the contest that the schools were de-
'eated. At these another vote will be
aiken under the general law.
There will be modern up to- date build
ings put up at these places, and an
equipment that will insure good educa-
tional facilities. You have already stated
in your excellent paper that two women
are on our board of trustees That is
rue and l placed them on these boards
because of their eminent fitness and the
people of their respective communities
endorsed them by large majorites.

New Method of Turpen.ine 0rcharding

The attention of all interested in the
turpentine and rosin industry is called
20 the fact that new and much i'm
proved method of working pine forests
for turpentine has been devised by the
United States Department of Agriculture.
By this method the number of hands re-
CURED to work task is less than by
the common method while at the same
time the quantity and quality of the
dip is about doubled. Trees worked by
the new method will live longer and
yield more than by present methods.
The cost of introducing the new meth
cd Is small and will be more than repaid
out of the extra profits of the first sea-
son. The department at Washington will
send free of charge man to start the
new system in any locality in which
turpentine is a considerable industry.
Those who are interested should CORE

partment of Agriculture, Washington,
