Impromptu Rhyming.
C. S. Wooten, LaGrange, n. I.

c. S. Wooten, LaGrange, n. I.
The present Governor R. B. Glenn
is a grandson OF Mr.. James K.
Dodge, who lived near Judge Pear
sons, in Yadkin county. used to
90 over to his house when a student
at Pearson's Law School, and he
was a genial, jovial, humorous old
gentleman. He was Clerk OF the Su-
preme Court OF Morganton, for the
Western District. He was man OF
literary tastes, being a relative OF
Washington Irving, and married a
niece of Colonel Nicholas L.Williams.
He lived on a hill with magnificent
oaks, which was a quiet sequestered
place, and an ideal retreat for a lit
erary recluse In early life he had
been a lawyer and practiced in the
western counties. On one occasion,
he was making a speech in court and
when he had concluded, he found ly'
ing on his table the following lines,
written by three lawyers, Messrs
Swain, Hillman and Dews:
Here lies Dodge, who dodged all good
And lodged deal of evil;
Who after lodging all he could:
he could not dodge the devil
| Mr.. Dodge replied impromptu:
Here lies Hillman and Swain
Whose lot let no man choose,
They lived in sin and died in pain
! And the devil got his Dews tdues.)

Woman.

An exchange pays the following
tribute to woman:
Who does not love the name? Who
is so close to any being as his moth
er? For whom would he die SO soon,
whose love is like hers? What cares
she for his disgrace or even his sin?
Her love is ever the same! She will
Joy in his prosperity aud weep for his
sin and shame-but never, never for
sake him. She will watch over his
bed of sickness and impoverish her.
self to raise him to health. Nor is
she the only being whose love is thus
deep and constant. She who has
once plighted her faith and given her
love to man will never withdraw it.;
in disgrace, in poverty, in prison,
even she is still the same. She will
love him in his degradation, and the
deeper he sinks she will bind him the
closer to her heart. Will man do so?
Will he love till death. through reverse
and misery? Not he; let but the re-
port of shame spot the fair charater
OF the woman he has loved, and his
mockery of faith is broken-he loves
no longer.
Alas! what tales might woman tell,
of broken VOWS and severed hearts,
of withered hopes and bruised affec-
tions, if she held but the pen. / thank
God, woman has q power of her own
to which, some day or other, every
man must bow; he may revile, he
may, like a coward, attack her fair
fame; but sooner or later, he must
,, bow at the footstool of her beauty
. and confess to the loveliness which
he has assailed and the heart which
he has insulted. 1t is we'll for the
world that woman has a power aris-
ing from her beauty and virtue which
binds in a chain of invisible power
the strong to the weak. That love,
that tremendous power, still exists,
and is as strong and as reckless as
ever, and it would be well for the re-
vilers of woman to remember that q
day must come when they will bow
in shame before the unsullied altar o
love aid beauty, whose flames they
have tried to extinguish forever.

the daily ration OF the COW with some
roughness rich in protein, such as al
falfa, or cowpea hay.
2. A ton of alfalfa or pea hay
can be produced at a cost of So to S.
per ton, whereas wheat bran costs
800 to $25. AS yield OF from three
to FIVE tons of alfalfa can be obtain
ed from 1 acre of land, it is easy to see
what great advantage the utilization
of such roughness in the place OF
wheat bran, gives the dairyman.
g. In substituting alfalfa hay for
wheat bran it will best in practice 20
allow one and one-half to each pound
of wheat bran, and if the alfalfa is
fed in a finely chopped condition the
results will prove more satisfactory.
4. When alfalfa was fed under the
most favorale conditions, q gallon OF
milk was obtained for 90 cents, and
a pound of butter 1O.4 cents. When
pea hay was fed the lowest cost Of a
gallon of milk was So cents and a
pound OF butter was 9.4 cents. In
localities where pea hay grows we'll it
can be utilized to replace wheat bran
and in sections where alfalfa can be
grown it can be substituted for pea
hay with satisfaction.
5. These results, covering two
years. tests with different sets of COWS
furnish proof that certain forms Of
roughness in digestible protein can
be substituted with satisfaction fol
the more concentrates, and should
lend encouragement to dairy farms

RooseveItian Epigrams.

The following epigramatic SELL
tences culled from President Roose-
velt's speeches in North Carolina are
worthy of preservation.
In impressing the duty OF good
citizenship the President urged char
acteristically the value of individual
| and civic virtue There are Sc 'eral
elements which a man must possess
before he can be u useful citizen and
soldier of progress. In emphasizing
the duty ofpolitical and civic honesty
and bravery, he said:
eff a man isn't straight; the smar-
ter he is, the more dangerous he is
"Mere smartness or brightness or
astuteness by themselves only con-
stitute a man Of peril"
''The fact that q crooked man is
able renders him a greater curse than
if he wasn't"
GA man must be decent in his home
life, his private life, Of course; but
this is not by itself enough. The
man who fails to be honest and
brave both in his political franchise
and in his private business contrib
utes to political and social anarchy.
81 don't care how good a man is,
if he is afraid you can't do anything
with him. He is like some men in the
great civil war. Lofty patriotism
counted mighty little when they ran
away. They wouldn't stand pat. SO
in civic life a man who is timid is use
less. He must have goodness, cour-
age and honesty
"No matter how brave and honest
a man may be, he is worth nothing
if he is a natural born fool. The val
| ue of a man to his country depends
on his honesty, his courage and his
common sense.
) "Education means the promotion
not only OF industry, but OF that
3 good citizenship which rests upon
individual rights and upon the recog'
e milton by each individual that he has
duties as we'll as rights-in other
, words, OF that good citizenship
j which rests upon moral integrity
T., and intellectual freedom
n "Self-gOvernment Is not an easy
: thing. Only those communities ar.
t fit for it in which the average indi
Y vidual practices the virtue OF SELF
l. command, OF self-restraint, OF wis
t disinterestedness combined with wis
a self-interest."
II "The prime difference between civi
y lized and uncivilized peoples is tha
t in civilized peoples is that in civilize'
d peoples each generation wosks no
e only for it's own well-being, but TO

Moore Cash, Less Credit Farming.
New Bern journal

VIEW DtIA Coul
The farmers of the South are in bet
ter position today, than they ever
have been, to begin farming upon a
system of more cash and less credit,
for with the returns from cotton and
other crops, except portions OF the
truck crop, the Southern farmer has
money which can be easily employed
in placing himself in the way offarm-
inc upon a cash basis, and using his
credit, not to do business upon ex-
cept when necessity compels.
The farmer who has the cash should
buy his fertilizers upon the basis OF
this cash, that is, if he can pay cash
for one ton or two tons, buy that
amount of fertilizer, and either farm
upon that basis, or else make what
other fertilizers he may need. This
will give him the full interest in his
crops. and make what he raises his
own, instead of having bought his
fertilizers upon credit, and so mort
gagged his crops in advance, and when
these are gathered be unable to say
when or how they are to be disposed
of until the fertilizer account Is paid.
How can the farmer who farms on
credit. getting his fertilizers and sup
plies on a mortgage which covers his
labor and what he raises, going to
be able to say that he will hold his
cotton for IL cents? He is going to
sell only what is left after making
good his obligations, and in most
cases this means very little.
The country store merchant cal
have something to do in this, mor'
cash and less credit farming, for tn
desire to sell merchandise, rather tt
do business, causes too many cOun
trv merchants to force farmers t.
take goods on credit, when sucl
forcing credit means that the accoun
NAV never be paid. The countr,
merchant would not only best serv
his patron, but also himself, by try
ing to get those farmers who trad
with him to do so upon a cash basis
The farmer who thus farms, upo
the cash systems of doing what h
can pay for, is going to succeed best
for his credit is going to be gooe
and he can buy at less cost, tha
upon the credit system, which give
that additional profit to his GRO
growing, besides being sole dictate
as to the sale of what his farm prt
duces, and not be compelled to sc
in order to meet pressing obligation
in the way of mortgages upon h
crops and property.

Teach inten sive Farming.
Maxwell's Talesman.

The greatest good that can be done
to the American farmer today is to
teach him to make the largest posi-
BILE profit from the smallest tract of
land from which a family can be sup
ported in comfort. A great influence
operating today against keeping the
boys in the country is that the boy
does not have money enough to buy
farm. 1t is unfortunately true that
there is trend in the direction of the
absorbing of farms into still larger
farms, with a consequent diminution
of population. as in Iowa and other
farming sections. The remedy for
this is to demonstrate that if the
value is in the boy rather than in the
farm, and the boy is taught that by
intensive, diversified, scientific farm
ing a good living with surplus pro-
fit that will provide amply for old
age, may be made from a compara-
lively small tract of land-say ten
acres-with ample cultivation, irri-
cation and fertiliza atiOn--Orevenw with
out irrigation, because a hoe and a
cultivator in the hands of a scien-
tific farmer may bring as good and
better results in providing moisture
for growing plants than ditch and
unlimited water in the hands OF a
lazy farmer.
established anywhere in the South.
So great has been the Development
of this branch Of it's work that it pub
fishes a daily bulletin Of industrial
and construction news for the bene-
fit of those who want to keep in daily
touch with every new industrial, rail-
road and financial undertaking in
the South and Southwest.
Comparatively few people realize
what the higher prices which the
farmers OF the South have received
during the last few years for cotton
have meant to this section. During
the last six years in which cotton
has commanded a good price, al
| though less than the averag ge of the
preceding 50 years, the aggregate
value Of the cotton crops has been
about 50. 900, ,OOO.O 900, against 81.
| 800, 100000 for the six low-priced
years which ended with 1899, show
ing an increase of $1,000, 900 900
This vast gain has put the farmers
of the South on their feet financially
has stimulated the development o
banking and manufacturing and
given new zest topeople in every wall
of life. Controlling Il monopoly o
the worlds cotton production, anC
destined to dominate the world's
manufacture of cotton, having ad
vantages for cheap iron production
SO great as to give assurance thar
this section will become q dominat
ing power in the iron and steel indus
try of the world, having one-half o
the standing timber of the entir'
country, and with agricultural ant
other advantages not surpassed BY
any other equal area of earth, th'
South has before it a period Of sucl
vast activity as no other section o
America has probably ever seen. Ii
this great development the Manufac
turers' Record has the satisfaction
of knowing that it has been tn
lSouth's great leader, and that in th
future as in the past it will undoubt
edly continue to be the greatest fac
tor in the material upbuilding OF TIN
whole South and in bringing tina
section and the country at large int
the closest possible business rela
tions.
