A Happy Union.

The pleasant home of Mr.. and Mrs.
John McCluskey, one mile and half
northeast of Toledo, was the scene at
5 o'clock Wednesday morning of
quiet wedding, their daughter, Miss
Mamie, and Charles L. Litchfeld of
Yaquina being the principals.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
John Doran, and had all the beauty
and solemnity which should mark these
important events. Standing beneath
pretty canopy of ivy, these popular
young candidates for life partnership
exchanged the sacred vows which
united them "for BETTER

and 2 for Gilmore.
County Clerk Wade deferred the
official count until he could obtain the
opinion of the attorney general in re-
gard to opening the ballot boxes in
which the tally sheets had been sealed.
That official informed him that the
boxes could be opened by order Of the
county judge, who exercised his author
ity In the matter and the canvass was
made. This incident will probably be
remembered by judges of elections in
this county In the future.

A large and appreciative audience
witnessed the cantata "The Flower
Queen" last Friday night at Woodmen
Hall. II was one Of the most success
ful and artistic musical entertainments
ever given in Toledo. The forest effect
Of the stage setting was appropriate
and pretty and the numerous ''fiowers'
veritable dreams of beauty and grace.
Speaking of Grace, a new star has
arisen-and her name is Ross. The
sunfiower was certainly pleasant sur
prise. While it is always invidious to
particularize, we believe honest, un-
biased comment may serve as an in
centive to better efforts. The author
of the cantata designed the rose as the
stellar posy, and Miss Verna Ross sus-
tanned the difficult role admirably, her
clear soprano being unusually effective.
Miss Charlotte DAILY of Newport and
Miss Edith Elder caught the audience
with their Jap songs and also imper-
sonated the dandelion and sweet pea in
artistic style. Among the other good
numbers were solos by. Miss Gertie
Crosno (the crocus), Miss Martha
Rache (the snowball), and Miss Oneatta
Reynolds (the tulip.) The cboruses
were very pleasing, and the duet by the
violet Mora Krogstad) and lily (Rnth
OfstedahD was charming. From start
to finish it was an entertainment OF
much merit and Toledo is proud OF her
musical 'little misses. L. W. Gather,
the one lone, forlorn male member of
the combination, carried the part of
the recluse very creditably, but he
never seems exactly himself when the
ratio is l6 to and the girls at the pre-
dominating figure.

OUTLOOK FOR SOUTHERN FARMING.

Our Washington correspondent sends the fol-
lowing noteworthy expression of Secretary Viii
sons, but we take it out of his letter and put it
in our editorial page because we think it deserves
especial prominence:
1"There is no section of the world,' said Secre-
tary Wilson of Agriculture, in speaking of his
last tour of the South, (Which affords such induce
ments for diversified farming as the southern sec
ton of the United States. / believe that the next
few years will see a development greater than
has ever been taken place in any section of our
country, and the keynote of this will be diversi-
fed crops, the doing away with the single farm
crop, and the feeding of crops on the farm"
Secretary Wilson is a conservative as well as
a far-seeing man, and his words may be taken at
their face value. We commend them to our young
men.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-06-09

For quite a while we have been wishing to con-
graduate our readers on the fact that DR.. @. w.
Burkett, DR.. f. L. Stevens, and Prof. d. III. Hill,
of the A. & M. College, have this year prepared
a textbook on agriculture which is to be used in
the rural schools of the State, but the informa-
ton did not become public property till last
week. The book is now in press and will proba-
bly, be ready for distribution about July 1. 1t has
already been adopted by the State Board of Edu-
cation as the official text book on agriculture,
and as such must be taught hereafter in all rural
schools. We need no further guarantee of its
merit than the fact that it has been made by such
a trio as Profs. Burkett, Stevens, and Hill.

A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK.

But indeed Conviction, were it never so excel
lent, is worthless till it convert itself into Con
duct. Nay, properly Conviction is not possible
till then. Most true it is, as a wise man teaches
us, that Doubt of any sort cannot be removed
except by Action" On which ground, too, let him
who gropes painfully in darkness or uncertain
and prays vehemently that the dawn may
ripen into day, lay this other precept well to
heart: "Do the Duty which Hest nearest thee"
which thou knowest to be a Duty! Thy second
Duty will already have become clearer.-From
Carlyle's "Sartor Resartus."
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-06-09

The State Board of Agriculture in session here
last week increased the salary of State Chemist
Kilgore from $4,000 to $4,000. This was a striking
and we'll merited expression of the Boards con-
fdence in DR.. Kilgore, who has refused even HIGH
er salaries for other work in order to continue
in his present position.

CURRENT EVENTS: THE DRIFT OF THINGS Ae
WE E IT,

The last fortnight has brought an unusually
full chapter of catastrophes, ranging from small
railroad wrecks to the Kansas floods in which 75o
people lost their lives and 10000 people their
homes. And our Southland, usually free from
these moving accidents by flood and field, has had
the Gainesville, Ca, disaster in which a cyclone
brought death to nearly a hundred persons. Pub-
lie attention, too, has just been directed to the
Kishenev massacre of Russian Jews, and as a re-
suit many indignation meetings have been held
in the great cities north of us.

CAROLINA OR CALIFORNIA?

We have heard so much of late about the emf
grafton from western counties to Western States,
that it was with considerable interest that we dis
covered a lengthy letter from one of these wander
ing Tar Heels published in last weeks Winston
Republican. The writer is a Mr.. Spainhour, a
citizen of Forsyth, who took what he calls the
"Western fever in February, and left with a
dozen others for Sunny California. His opinion
of his new home and of his old is quite interest
ing, especially in view of the fact that it so
strikingly reinforces the opinion of Secretary
Wilson which we have quoted elsewhere in this
issue. Hear Mr.. Spainhour:
eyes, I repeat, this is a fine country and a
delightful climate and the man that has a home
here is all right, but if without a home, it is
hard for him to get one, for I have not found any
land that can be bought for less than three hun
dred dollars per acre, and if there is any i'm
provement it is much higher. There are home
seekers coming here every day, more or less, and
I find by talking with them that a great many are
disappointed, not because they don't like this
country, but because they find it impossible to
secure homes here. I have talked with men from
every one of the States between the Mississippi
River and the Rocky Mountains, and they all say
that all of the desirable land has been taken up
and the great West is full.
$50, Mr.. Editor, I think Mr.. Greely's advice to
young men to go West is no longer in order, but
should be changed to go South, young man, go
South for it is my honest opinion that the cheap
lands of the South will soon be the home-seeker's
only hope"
There's no better place in the world for the
young man of good health and fair education, the
young man who wants to build a home and live
an honorable, Independent life, than right here in
North Carolina. And there are no better pros
peects for him in any business than in farming
if he will only prepare himself as carefully for it
and work as earnestly at it. With better trained
farmers, diversified crops, more live stock, good
roads, good schools, rural mail delivery, rural
telephones, etc,-nOt to mention the high prices
paid now for every farm product from cotton to
chickens-the young man who sets out now to
become a frst-class North Carolina farmer will
outstrip his brother who leaves the old State onIv
to find when too late that otis distance lends en-
chantment to the view"
