z WEALTH IN COTTON SEED

Before the civil war the wealth
shut up in cottonseed was unknown,
and in many cases the seed cumber-
ed the gins and the ground. In fer
tile districts gInners required their
customers to cart away theseed other
cotton, so valueless was it consider
ed. Owners of cottonseed do not
need any compulsion on that score
nowadays. The seed has become
cotton's chief by product.
Oil mills have been erected until
upwards of six hundred are now seen
in the south. Every cotton growing
district is equipped with mills, and
no town considers itself we'll treated
if it has not at lest one of them.
These mills are turning out from
110,000,0O0 to lis, 100000 gallons of
oil year, three-fourths of which is
consumed at home. It is supplant-
ing lard in the kitchen, being more
wholesome and equally satisfactory.
1t is used in the manufacture of soap.
and new uses are found for it everv
year. The exports of oil range from
35,O0O,0O0 to $4,000, 900 gallons a
year, but if there were no export de-
mand the entire product would be
taken in home consumption.
Cattonseed meal aud cake is also
largely exported, while much of it is
fed at home, together with the hulls
from the vast crop. The Oil mills
crush about sixty-fve per cent of the
seed crop, and the aggregate is slow.
ly rising each year. The plant will
be fully utilized when the stalks are
transformed into paper, and more at
tention should be given to this branch
OF the subject. AS the boil Weevil
advances the stalks will have to he
cut and gathered for burning. If thew
could be gathered for pulp-making
purposes, another by-product would
be added to cotton, and the South
would be dotted with paper mills as
1t now is with Oil mills,

AMERICAN YACHT LEADS.

Dover, England, June 18.-In a
tine northwesterly breeze fourteen
yachts started this afternoon in the
race to the island of Heligoland for
Emperor Williams cup. There
was much more interest in the con-
test this year than heretofore, as it
had been given an international
character by the admission of Amer
lean, French and German competi-
tors. The Stars and Stripes were re-
presented by a sole entry, the
schooner yacht Ingomar owned by
Morton F. Plant, of New York;.
The greatest interest centered in
the showing she will make against
the European two stickers. Captain
Bar confidently predicts her victory,
and to confirm his view the Ingomar
went into the front and off the Fore
land was leading the fleet, sailing
in magnificent style.

The Value of a Sunny Soul.
(FrOm "Success. .")

The world is too full of sadness and
sorrow, misery and sickness; it needs
more sunshine; it needs cheerful
lives which radiate gladness; it needs
encouragers who will lift up and not
bear down, who will encourage. not
disencourage.
Who can estimate the value of a
sunny soul who scatters gladness and
good cheer wherever he goes, instead
of gloom and sadness? Everybody is
attrcated to these cheerful faces and
sunny lives, and repelled by the
gloomy the morose, and the sad. We
envy people who radiate cheer
wherever they go and fling out glad
ness from every pore. Money.
houses, and lands look contemptibIe
beside such a disposition. The abiI-
ity to radiate sunshine is a greater
power than beauty, or than mere
mental accomplishments.

MUTUAL HOME.

We call attention to the advertise
ment elsewhere in this issue of the
Southern mutual Home and Real Es-
tate Company.
This company, home institution,
organized in accordance with the
building and loan laws of the State.
and under the supervision of the Cor
pOratiOn Commission of North Caro-
lima promises to be boon to those
heretofore deprived of the advant-
ages of doing business with building
and Loan companies on account of
their locations, as this company sells
stock and lends money anywhere in
the State.
The plan on which this company
works was arranged byseveral of the
most experienced building and loan
authorities in the State, and its legal
details carefully supervised by the
best legal talent. Its present condi-
ton and prospect for the future leave
no reason to doubt that it will prove
an entire success, ,and its stock as safe
an investment as could be desired.
1t has many agents at work
throughout the State, but wants
more, especially in this section.

On tomorrow in Chicago, a ma

a predetermined candidate. In the
last fonrteen national conventions a

eight, ballottings have extended

exceptional.
In 1875 Tilden was plainly the
favorite, but he was not nominated
on the first ballot. Cleveland in
1884 won the nomination on the
second ballot, and was elected. Four
years later he was nominated with
out roll call, and defeat followed.
Bryan's nomination in 1896 came on
the fifth ballot. In 1900 he was re-
nominated without opposition.
Precedent does not run wholly one
way, but as rule a party does not
select its candidate until the dele
gates have met, exchanged views
and considered the situation. One
thousand representative men can
learn something from each other,

brought out in counsel.
nm ~. The Republicans will this year
have a predetermined candidate,
and the Democrats will not. The
candidate will be named
by patronage and the machine, and
the Democratic candidate will be a
selection from the best available
men in the party. All things con-
'idered the Democrats promise to
get the best start.

CHOKING CATARRH CURED,
Your Money Back if Hyomei Does
Not Cure You,

Not Cure You.
"Use Hyomei and be cured of ca
tarrh,o - is what all who have tried
it for that disease say to their friends.
Tt is the easiest thing in the world
to stop catarrh at its beginning if
you use Hyomei. Just breathe the
health-giving, balsamic air for few
minutes and your catarrh will be
cured. In the worst cases of this
disease, chronic or acute, Hyomei
used four Or five times day is all
that is needed to soon effect a cure.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but $1.00 and comprises hard rub
Der pocket inhaler, a bottle of Hyo-
mai and a dropper. The inhaler will
last life time; and additional bot
ties of Hyomei can be obtained for
SOC.
In this city and neighboring
towns, there are hundreds who can
testify to the remarkable powers of
HyomeI to cure catarrh. Many of
the staunchest friends of this remedy
today began its use with little hope
that they would be cured, but as j.
III. Hill & Son offered to refund the
money il it did not cure, they de-
cided to try it on that plan, and
were soon restored to health.

We also talk of the changes in the

merchandising and better trading,
together with more economical man

this study and attention.
The outgrowth of all of which has
