the finest corn on the College farm has never had
any hoe work whatever-quite pointer for those
who complain about the scarcity of labor, but will
not invest in laborsavng. machinery The labor
question was discussed by Messrs I. M. Green
and T. B. Parker. One of the points brought out
by Mr.. Parker ought to have attention every time
the labor question is mentioned. This is the
necessity for discriminating in price between the
good laborer and the sorry laborer. What won
der that labor is trifing when A who hoes five
rows of cotton while B is hoeing three gets no
increase in price for his increased efficiency, and
Jones and Smith get the same price day for cut

Wednesday morning A L. French and c. G.
Moore-either one of whom would have made
good President-and the writer, were appointed
as a committee to nominate officers for the en-
suing year. President Scott declined a re-elec-
ton, and while no better leader could be found
than he, we think he acted wisely in urging the
convention to set the precedent of giving only
one term to each President. Mr.. E. L. Daught-
ridge, of Edgecombe County, was elected to sue
ceed Mr. Scott. He is one of the best farmers in
the State and will make an ideal President. On
recommendation, the office of Vice-President was
created, and Mr.. J. P. Kerr, of Buncombe Coun-
ty, elected to I'LL it. For Secretary no one was
thought of but DR.. Burkett; no one else would
could make the convention successful as he.

ONE TERROR LESS
A Name to Make Men Shudder No
Longer Locomotor Ataxia
Now in the List of
Durable Diseases.

Fresh proof is furnished daily that a
path to recovery has been opened be-
fore the hitherto hopeless victims of
locomotor ataxia, the pains of which
are probably the most agonizing which
the human frame is ever compelled to
endure.
Mr.. c. E. Janvrin, of Hampton
Falls, N. H, was attacked about three
years ago by what he at first thought
was rheumatism. He got temporary
relief from liniments. but the trouble
always returned with greater severity
After he had endured it for more than
year, he began to consult physicians
in great anxiety.
He was startled by their verdict:
''Tl1ey all said,'' states Mr.. Janvrin.
that I had Iocomotor ataxia; that my
spinal cord had degenerated, and that
no encouragement of a cure could be
given. 1 am a young man yet and my
business requires me to travel daily,
but 1 was compelled to remain home
months at stretch, and at times
could barely shuttle my feet across the
floor
MY legs and feet seemed to be par
alyzed. If I made any attempt to lift
my feet l suffered the most excruciat-
ing pains. I finally became convinced
that I would be utterly incapacitated
for business, and 1 simply gave up to
dependency.
"One day in January. 1903, 1 hap
pened to read in a pamphlet some re-
fected by Dr. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. Although despairing
man L fortunately decided to give them
a trial L used two boxes before saw
any improvement. Then I began to
have hope that they might possibly
save me.
MY condition steadily improved
and before the tenth box was entirely
gone 1 was able to take up my work
again. My cure was complete in every
respect, and it has been permanent, for
I am now at work every day. I was
! made a perfectly well man in six
months by using DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. My confidence in them is ma
turally great. 1 am never without a
box of them in my home, and I can
scarcely say too much in their favor
They are sold by all druggists through
out the world.

NOVELTY IN FLOWERS. A GREEN
PRIMROSE.

The green rose is a very old and
rather ugly novelty that crops up
afresh from time to time as a catch
penny attraction, and there are one or
two other plants with green flowers
that are usually more curious than at
tracuve. A somewhat rare green
HoWered Lenten rose, heileborus viridis
multifdus, is really rather good. but
the ordinary form, h. v dumetorum, is
unattractive. The prettiest green
lowered rock plant is perhaps HAGUE
TIA epipactis, a little alpine that flow
ers close TO the ground the bright.
green-petaled blossoms, with pretty
gold centers, being about the size of
primrose blooms, and produced with us
early in spring before the strawberry
like leaves. Bupleurum ranunculoides
Is another alpine that the curious in
green-fiowered rockery subjects might
try; but as it is a high alpine. its Gull
ture will be for careful gardeners only.
The latest invention in the way of
green-fiowering varieties is an addition
to that familiar family, our own yellow
primroses. 1t is called Novelty and
is described as a large and truly green
lowered form of the beautiful old wild
primrose, free bloomer and strong
grower.-Ladies' Field.

PLANS BEING MADE.

The Baxter National Bank people
and the Masonic lodges of this city
have finally agreed on the kind of a
building which they will put up al
the corner of Military and Neosho
streets. The bank will use the cor.
ner room on the first floor, 50xSO
feet. The room next to the corner
on the ground floor will be used by
a large mercantile establishment.
In order that the upper floor space
will not be disturbed, the Masons
have arranged for the purchase of
six feet of ground on the north from
John Opperman. On this space an
enclosed stairway will be built,
leaving the entire 50xS0 feet over
the bank building intact for Ma
sonic purposes. 1t will be divided
into reception rooms, banquet
room, ante room, lodge room ETC.,
and the Masons are planning to
furnish 1t.
Work on the new building will
soon begin.

THE MINES.

Not much has been said about
work on the Charters ground south
of this city, but considerable work
has been done and the showing
made is very satisfactory to the
owners of the lease, J. E. Putnam &
Co., of Joplin.
In the first drill hole lead ore was
found at 90 feet, and several feet OF
the ore bearing ground was pene-
trated. At about liz feet nice lot
of zinc ore was gone through.
In the second drill hole, zinc ore
was found at 40 feet and the drill
went through IA feet of it. So rich
was the ore that about 80 pounds of
zinc was cleaned from the cuttings
of about eight feet of ore through
which the drill passed.
Ginder e. Co. of Joplin have Sc
cured from Mr.. Putnam a lease on
a part of this land, and will devel-
op 1t.
In the meantime. Mr.. Putnam will
go ahead and do some more drill
ing on the Charters, and the Xavier
land adjoining.
E. c. Gaines and r. o. Thomas.
who have lease on 40 acres of the
Coosotte land, east of Quapaw Mis-
sion, have struck fine body of zinc
ore at depth of 60 feet. They are
drilling in the center of what ap.
pears to be an old crater. or up.
heaval, of some sort. There is an
old circle of rocks about 300 feet in
diameter, and they put the drill in
the center. Above the ore is SOAP
stone and the oar is of the free kind.
and indications are that these lucky
gentlemen have penetrated what is
known as "chimney" of ore. If
they have, il will prove to be dai.
