We clip the following from a
exchange which Is re-
marksble I'm view Of the fact that 1t
contains more truth than fiction:
ave wonder IL the penitentiary
officials really could keep a man out
OF that institution if he insisted
upon getting in. They certainly do
not seem able. to keep anybody in
there"

WHY Progressive YOUNG MEN
LEAVE OUR STATE.

WHY PROGRESSIVE YOUNG MEN
LEAVE OUR STATE.
Some Of the democrats in this
State are just waking up to the fact
that political persecution and in
tolerance has driven some Of the
brightest young North Carolinians
from their native heath. Some Of the
red-shirt sheets deny the fact but
still 1t remains the truth.
A former North Carolinian writ.
ing to the Biblical Recorder on this
subject, among other things, says:
"This same spirit Of narrow big
ority both political and religious,
has "clipped the wings Of fancy
and driven the muses. from her
borders. The result Is that North
Carolina Is State without poetry,
q land without q literature and a
commonwealth whose statesman re.
main IUrever unKnUwn uniess IOr-
sooth they 60 to more favorable
climes."
We do not herald this to the
world as glad tidings for it makes
our heart sche to think that such
conditions have and do exist in our
State.
The following appeared in the
Charlotte Observer just after the re-
union of former North Carolinians
at Greensboro week before last:
"Hon. Joseph M. Dixon, the only
Representative In Congress from
Montana, was one Of the speakers at
the reunion at Greensboro last week.
He Is . native Of Alamance county
and went to Montana q number of
years ago-twelve, we believe. He
Is bright young man, makes a
good speech, and arrested the atten-
tion Of the audience by saying in
his address. which breathed filial
affections. that he went away from
home on account Of political intol.
erance here"
And there are others too numer-
GUS to mention just here that have
been forced to leave the Slate before
they could climb the ladder of fame.
Among them are Hon. Joe Cannon
who will be the next Speaker OF
, Congress; Senator Hawley, of Con.
necticutt, and Mr.. ]. w. Albertson,
q republican reared in Elizabeth
City, who left the State an account
OF political persecution and located
In the State Of Washington. and IL
now one of the most noted lawyer
on the Pacific Slope.
Mr.. Walter H. Page, who Is now
editor Of the "Worlds Work." one
Of the most noted magazines Of the
day, was born and reared in Wake
county, near the State Capitol. He
was so progressive that the moss
back democrats jumped on him and
he left the State for a better field

The principle we have always
followed Is that when hogs are
ready to 60, to let them go. The
higher the price the more profit can
be made in feeding heavy hogs, but
we would not think OF growing
hogs over 200 lbs, unless we had
no youngsters. coming on. We be-
lleve that when hogs are four cents
and under the proper weight at
which TO sell them is l7j pounds;
when they are five cents, 200
pounds when they are six cents,
225 pounds; and when they are
seven cts, $50 pounds.-Wallace's
Farmer.
Many farmers know that cut hay,
or even strsw, wet and sprinkled
with meal, is a better food for
working horses than whole grain
and hay. In this shape the nutri-
ment ir the feed Is easily eaten and
digested. Horses do not need
water when eating, except as it is
put on the chopped hay to make
the meal stick to 1t. The meal
being fine, digests perfectly, while
much OF the nutrimenl In whole
grain is lost. Again, The wasted
effect made in digesting the latter
is SO much detracted from the
strength which should 60 to the
work.
Don't run the hens up hill when

Don't plant grapevines in your
