A Splendid Record.

More than ten years ago there was or
ganized in this city an Investment and
Loan Company and board of seven man
ayers elected. During all that time nelth-
er removal, resignation nor death has made
any changes in the management OF the
Mechanics and Investors Union until the
death of Mr.. Charles G. Latta, one of
the directors. This vacancy was filled yes
terday by the election of one of the
best financial men of our city. Mr.. Leo
ID. Heart, (Vice-President of the Carolina
Trust Company, who will make a safe
and useful director.
The secretary in his midsummer report
to the directors showed that since organi
cation two hundred and fifty persons had
been aided in building houses, and that
about thirty thousand dollars had been
paid during the past twelve months to own
ers OF matured certificate S, also that new
business had more than equalled maturing
cancellations As ten years is only a short
time in the life of an organization, we can
hope to see the company and its managers
continue ,neir prosperous career many
years longer.

North Carolina Bulletins.

A number of correspondents ask for
the North Carolina Station. The Director
informs us that the demand for these
bulletins from farmers in the State is so
large that he is obliged tC decline send
ing them to other States, as the supply
is nearly exhausted. Mr.. Umholtz, OF Ar
Kansas writes in regard TO what we said
in Bulletin No. 1872 about cutting out
the borers from apple trees in winter,
he thinks a poor plan, as by that TINE
they have done over one-haH the dam
age they will do He examines the 'trees
in August and September, as snoE as he
can see where they are at work, and
again in October and several times before
winter, and again in early spring. The
work on insects in Bulletin No. 1872 was
by the State Entomologlst, and we as
sumo that he is an adept In the work
But Mr.. Umhotz's suggestions seem val
liable and we are glad to give them. He
says that it is an error to say that the
borers only attack neglected trees. for
he has seen them attack the most thrifty
ones. Mr.. Umholtz says further, Il
know that the p. +. is the best farm
paper published, yet l would like to see
another addition made. That is q page,
or part of one devoted to insects, and
birds, describing them, with illustrations,
telling their manner of living AMI breed
ing, so that farmers and fruit growers
would know which to destroy and which
are beneficial. Not giving scientific
classification and Latin names, but com
mon ones. l have several works on en-
tomology but none are worth anything
for practical use. When | was examined
Tor teacher my certificate showed 100
per cent. on entomology, but when /
went to farming and fruit growing all my
knowledge of insects, except as to thelr
! three stages, was of no practical value
Such a department in the P. f. would
be OF great educational value to the young
people" Our friends suggestions are
very valuable, and we are hoping to see
the time when we can enlarge the paper
and include this and other instructive
matters. The Editor will be glad to give
just such matter. But with the various
departments that now occupy The space
| 1T Is hard to add more until the patron
| age OF the paper warrants the increase in
pages. Now if Mr.. Umholtz and all 9TH
ers who want to have the paper enlarged
! and made more educational and instruc-
tive will so heartily to work to increase
the circulation until we can get to the
point where these things can have room,
they will be doing not only themselves
a favor, but aiding the prorrietcrs to do
more. There is no farm paper that sticks
more closely to its text as an educational
journal than the r. F., ard we are anx-
ious to increase its value III this respect.
One additional subscriber sent by each
one now on the list will put the paper
where we will be able to make great i'm
| provements.

STRANDED FOUR DAYS,

Young Canadian Robinson Crusoes.
A couple of young Canadians had an
accident to their canoe and we're left
upon small uninhabited island for four
days before help came during which
time they had nothing to eat but
couple of packages of Grape Nuts.
In telling the story one of them SAYS:
There was quite a party of u.s., and we
prepared to spend a jolly time hunting
in Muskoka / provisioned the party and
among other supplies laid in stock of

densed milk saying, Leave these at
Verne's with cur compliments, they were
wishing they had some yesterday We
had gone about half the distance when it
began to blow the Lake becoming very
rough so we turned our frall poat toward
a small island and padded with all our
might to gain this shelter Heavy rain
began to fall and we drove the boat
ashore with more haste than caution and
in doing so struck a sunken log and tore
a large hole in the light canoe. We
scrambled ashore and hauled the boat

quarter of an acre and out of the track
of steamers; a hole a foot long in our

trees and our canoe and no food except
the Grape-Nuts and milk.
For four long dreary days we waited
and hoped for help and finally our friends
missed us and organized a search party
and found us on the bare little island.
"As we had no fishing tackle we could
not fish and not having n fire we could
not cook. But we had three meals day

GREENSBORO REUNION.
Dr.. M'Iver on the Gathering
of Ex-North Cardinals
at Greensboro.

President Charles D. McIver, of the
State Normal and Industrial College, was
IN the city yesterday. He is chairman of
the Committee on Arrangements of the
great Reunion of ex-North Carolinians at
Greensboro, and full of enthusiasm on the
over the prospects:
We are expecting a large and inter
esting gathering of ex-North Carolinians
at Greensboro, on October II and 18th.
THE railroads to the Pacific coast have
granted a rate of one fare, plus ONE dol
lar for the round trip, and for points
within 800 miles of Greensboro the fare
Will be one fare, plus twenty-five cents.
This will bring to Greensboro a large num-
Der of North Carolinians who will wish
to welcome home our dispersed abroad
Mr.. John Wilbur Jenkins. of Baltimore,
is taking great interest in the meeting
and thinks that with representative dele
gates from the North Carolina societies IL
New York, Baltimore Washington, Rich
mond and Atlanta to begin with. we can
organize North Carolinians in every large
city and State in the Union, and form a
general federation of such associations that
Will help to promote the glory and well
fare of North Carolina in many direc-
tons.
Il have Just seen Mr.. Walter H. Page
and DR.. E. A->Alderman, who are plan
nIng to be present, and to participate IN
the exercises. A few weeks ago in Boston,
Rev. DR.. A. C. Dixon expressed the hope
that he might be present. We have the
conditional promise, of Speaker to- BEGAN
non, who was born in Guilford county,
that he will attend. Hon. Hoke Smith
will be one OF the speakers and probably
also Hon. Maurice Taylor, of Alabama,
and Congressman Dixon, of Montana.
while attending the National Educa-
tlonal Association in Boston l had the op-
portunlty to see what our New England
friends think of these State reunions.
They have tried the annual reunion of
nonresident sons and daughters for the
past three years. They call it old Home
Week The Massachusetts Old Home
Week was just after the National Educa-
tional Association and the Massachusetts,
papers were full of the subject, the general
consensus of opinion being that the States
that have adopted the custom had found
it exceedingly pleasant and profitable in
many ways.
''Our reunion at Greensboro this year
will probably become an annual event for
North Carolina. 1t is not local affair
at all, but the State, through the Gov
errors action and the Legislatures reso-
luton is behind the undertaking. The or
ganzation will be made at Greensboro
this year and hereafter we may have an
Old Home Week, giving ample opportunity
for a half dozen or more big, pleasant and
profitable meetings in the various sections
of the State.

A Mothers Gratitude
Many a Mother in Raleigh
Will Appreciate the
Following.

Many a strong man and many healthy
mother. The care taken during their
childhood brought them past the danger
point and made them healthy man and
woman. Children are generally bothered
at some period with incontinence of
urine, and inability to retain it is often
called a habit. 1t is not the children's
fault-the difficulty lies with the kidneys,
and can be readily righted if taken in
the proper way. A Raleigh mother
shows you how:
Mrs. A. C. Howell, of 215 E. Davie
street, says: "My little boy suffered FIR I'm
q kidney weakness. The secretions from
those organs were thick and he always
complained of being unable to retain it.,
and often wet the bed. He had a sallow
look and his back ached great deal and
he also had much heddache. had doc
tor attend him but he seemed to grow
worse instead of better. / noticed Doan's
Kidney Pills highly recommended in our
papers and l got box of them from
Bobbitt-Wynne Drug Company's store.
Before the boy had taken half of them
there was a decided change for the bet
ter. The secretions from the kidneys
became natural, he did not complain of
backache or headache, and there was a
wonderful change for the better in his
complexion. Doan's Kidney Pills are all
that is claimed for them and 1 will only
be too glad to say so at any time

At the tap of the gong, the driving wheels
Revolved with whir and a grating
cheer,
While out of the station the engine steals
With it's human load and the engineer
And the night was wild with the wind and
rain,
AS "she" rushed along without stop or
fear.
While the human freight on the Pullman
train
Depended alone on the engineer!
Over valley and hill, tunnel and stream,
The eye of the pilot was keen and clear,
While all on board were asleep and
adream;
But there at his post stood the egineer.
He thought of his boys and girls at
school,
And his wife, and his mother, old and
scar,
But more than all, he thought of the
rule
OF time" to the sleepless engineer.
AT the dawn Of day, while speeding
south,
A rock on the track doomed up bold and
clear.
AS the train. like a ball from a lannon's
mouth
Was leaping along with the engineer!
Shall 1 jump for my hfe?" to himself he
said,
"And then shrink like a coward with
fear!"
mo. I'll stick to my post, living or dead"
Was the last remark of the engineer.
Then quick as flash, that brave, steady
hand
Reversed the power of the running
gear,
And all were saved, in that sunny land,
But the faithful, glorious engineerl
The report of the wreck was promptly
made,
And the world moved on, with its joy
and fear,
While the loss entire, over hill and glade,
Was only the death of an engineer,
