MILK PRICES SOAR
Retailers Contemplate Rails

DAIRYMEN ARE RESPONSIBLE

stFictive Laws Held 10 Blame.

The action Of the Mix Producers Asso-
citation of Maryland, Virginia, and the
District Of Columbia. in increasing the
wholesale price Of milk from IS TO 20
cents a gallon after January l. will. in
the opinion Of a number Of retail dealers.
raise the retail price At a meeting Of
the Producers Association october "a it
was decided TO advance the price owing
20 the increased cost OF food stuffs for
animals, the cost of transportation, and
the restrictions placed on the shipment Of
milk by the local authorities. Similar
action has been taken by an association
at Herndon. Va. from which point about
200 gallons Of milk are shipped 20
Washington daily.
This was followed by a meeting of in
dividual milk dealers, at which resolutions
were passed opposing the proposed in
crease, the dealers disliking to raise the
price to the consumer.
Some Of the dealers are now paying %
cents and even more In certain cases.
George NJ. Oyster, one of the largest
retail dealers in the city, who handles an
output Of 500 gallons a day, said yester-
day that he had been notified by the pro-
ducers Of Herndon that unless he paid
them 20 instead Of IS cents the supply
would be discontinued.
Retailers VIII Lose at Cents.
IF this is enforced, 1t will mean loss
to the retail dealers at the present price
OF S cents a quart" said Nh Oyster.
''The dealers are unwilling to increase
the price to the consumers, but eventually
they may be forced to do so. Owing TO
the increased cost of production and
labor, the farmer is making little money
at the present rate. but If the consumer
is unwilling TO pay more, the retail dealer
certainly cannot afford 10.
For several months past there has
been a scarcity of milk in Washing
ton. Cows have fallen short in their
usual production. and this Is attributed
/ by the farmers 10 the unusually wet
summer. forcing them to feed their stock
damp fodder
I have paid as high as 30 and % cents
! a gallon for milk which I have reta!led
at cents a quart. as my customers must
| be supplied. and are not familiar with
circumstances which would demand an
/ increase.
The farmers should undoubtedly re-
celve a larger price, but if the increase is
made. il will mean a loss TO the dealers
who are endeavoring to supply their trade
/ at current prices.

Death of Mike Burrows.

After a lingering ILLNESS of nearly two
years, Mike Burrows, highly respected
citizen of Louisburg passed away last
Monday morning. He was stricken with
paralysis which was the beginning of his
illness, something like two years ago,
and has been an invalid ever since. A
second stroke few day ago gave notice
to his family that the end was near He
leaves a wife (his second) who was Miss
Rosa Nash land one child His first wife
was Miss Mary Edwards who left three
children, and they are still living.
Mr.. Burroas was quite a genius and
being skilled workman could maufac-
ture almost anything out of wood. He
was also a musician, and many of our
people will remembar the "Italian harp
he made some years ago.
His remains were inferred Tuesday
evening at Trinity church by the side OF
his first wife.
The above is taken from the Louis
burg Times of last week. Mr.. Bur
rows lived in Henderson at one time
and the intelligence of his death will
be learned with regret by numbers
of persons here.

Cotton Picking Machine.

There is displayed in the show win
dow at Barnes Clothing Store draw
ings OF cotton picking machine OF
which Mr. n. NJ. Henderson is the in
ventor. He has been working on
the idea about three years and has
finally worked it out into a practical
machine he thinks. Suction is the
principle by which the cotton is to be
picked out and the inventor feels con-
fident that the machine will do the
work. He had made a small working
model for the patent attorneys from
which blue prints and Photographic
drawings were made but has not yet
had machine built and tested in
practical operation. Mr.. Henderson
had hoped to do SO in time for this
crop but circumstances haveprevent-
ed. Many persons who have seen the
drawings think the principle is all
right and express confidence in the
practicability and success OF the ma
chine. The GOLD LEAF hopes Mr..
Henderson has solved the problem OF
picking cotton by machinery and
that he may realize fortune out OF
his invention.

AN OPEN LETTER
To the People of Henderson

To whom 1t May Concern:
OF late there has been good deal of
discussion in Henderson in regard to ad
vertised medicines and their value-the
papers are full of them.
We want to say to every man, woman
and child in Henderson that we believe
the most valuable preparation of cod
liver oil-the best tonic reconstruction,
health restorer and strength creator
we have ever sold in our store is Vinol.
Vinol is not a patent medicine, it con-
tains no injurious drugs, but it actually
does contain all of the medicinal, cura-
tive elements taken from fresh Gods
livers, without drop of the useless oil
to upset the stomach and retard it's W ork
| and tonic iron added.
Vinol is recognized throughout the
world as the greatest strength creator
for old people, weak, sickly women and
children, nursing mothers, and after a
severe sickness.
Vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
| colds, bronchitis, and all throat and
lung troubles. We ask the people OF
Henderson to try Vinol on our offer to
return money if it fails. w W. Parker,
Druggist.
Worthwhile we are sole agents for
Vinol in Henderson, it is now for sale at
the leading drug stores in nearly every
town and city in the country. Look for
the Ninol agency in your town.

THURSDAY. OCTOBER 20, 1906.
Memorial Service.

Under the auspices of the Vanc,
Chapter. United Daughters OF the
Confederacy, a memorial service WAS
held in the Methodist Episcopal
church Sunday afternoon in honor
of Mrs. Jefferson Davis Owing to
the short notice given, the attendance
was small. Dr.. Nash conducted the
service and his remarks on the life
and character OF the widow of the
only president of the Confederate
States of America were most timely
and impressive. He spoke of Mrs.
Davis as a woman of remarkable
individuality, a fine type of South
ern womanhood, and her devotion
to her distinguished husband and
the cause he represented, declaring
that her fidelity throughout his
vicarious suffering for the people
of the South was but type OF true
Southern womanhood as exemplified,
during the trying times between 81
and '65, and since. Not only as the
wife and widow of the great president
of the Confederacy and the recognized
strongest link connecting the present
with the Thrilling war period, but by
reason of her own life and work,
Mrs. Davis stood out conspicuously
among the notable and noble women
of all times.
Rev. J. T. B. Hoover offered a fer
vent and feeling prayer at the con-
clusion of DR.. Nash's remarks and
then in brief but appropriate words
added a beautiful tribute to what
had been so we'll said. Seldom have
more fitting eulogies been pronounced
!. than those of DR.. Nash and Mr..
: Hoover and no one who heard them
can fail to have higher ideas of life
and a more exalted opinion of the
theme which prompted these ad-
dresses.
The services were impressive, the
music well chosen and beautifully
rendered, and altogether the oc-
, casion was worthy Of the subject and
those who took part in it.

Why We Get Them.

Henderson has had most of the big
and little shows that have Travelled
this territory in past and recent years,
but never the big Barnum & Bailey
show. An enterprise ofsuch gigantic
proportions and enormous expense
does not often show towns of this
size. But they cannot very well show
Raleigh and jump to Norfolk or Rich
mond in time to give ii performance
next day. Hence the date for Hen
derson. But they will have Il crowd
here all right enough if the weather
is good. People will come from all
the adjoining counties. Reduced rates
will be made by the railroads for the
occasion. Nov. 10th is the date.

If you have become twenty-one
years old since last election go and
have your name placed on the regis
tration books at once. Ii you have
moved into the country or from the
township where you last voted go at
once and get your name on the books

times people fail to register through
neglect and sometimes because they
don't care to vote. Besure to register
