year sends its most noted scientists to
participate in the gathering together of
experts from all parts of the world. In
Europe the exposition is annually given
the greatest publicity throughout the
different centers Of population, it being
the understood object to apprise the peo-
pie of what is good and what is not good
for their general welfare. The exposi-
lions of 1906 and 1907 were attended by
thousands of tourists from America, the
recent rise of public interest in the sub
jeet of pure foods encouraging investiga-
ton in the products Of the world brought
together in one vast exhibit.
The department Of brewing at the Ant
wsrp exposition Was one of the chief fes-
lures. The fact that the first beer was
brewed in what is now the kingdom of
Belgium added to the interest in the ex-
hibit and inspired wonderful s~howings
from the different interests OF the world.
All the great breweries OF Germany,
America, England and other countries
made efforts to excel ii their exhibits,
and when the time came for the highest
awards interest was at fever heat.

AWise and Prosperous Farmer.

The southern farmer is often
troubled to get labor, and when
he gets it, he has to pay for it,
too. And besides having trouble
to get it and having to pay dearly
for it, 1t is becoming unreliable
and unsatisfactory. What, then,
is he to do7 w. G.. Michael, of
Gibsonville, solved the problem
for himself in this way, says the
Greensboro Telegram. He plant
ed wheat and oats, mostly, crops
That do not require constant cul-
tivation, and he made 1900 bush
els Of wheat, and 800 bushels of
oats, and paid very little atten-
ton to other crops except foul
acres of tomatoes. From these
four acres he sold $4,000 cans,
making . clear profit Of $1,000.
His cans gave out three weeks ago,
and not being able to get more,
he began feeding 10 or II bush.
els to his hogs and they are fat
tening on it. i
This is mixing brains with
farming.

Why Men Don't Go to Church.

"What we want is more vlrltll-
ity and less effeminacy," said
Bishop W. A Chandler before the
assembled Methodist ministers OF
Atlanta at the regular conference
Monday.
"We've got to be more vigor-
GUS. We have a big work to per-
form and we want to show that
we mean business"
Bishop Chandler was talking OF
the layman's missionary move,
ment and the recent meeting at
Knoxville, Tenn, and said he
had noted the tendency in the
men to drop away from the
Church.
"They are leaving things to the
women" he continued. "This is
not hard 70 account for. Pretty
little curled up speeches and curl
ed up words don't draw men. They
draw meu-away. It's plain.
straight talk and hard words and
business actions that attract the
kind of people we are after. W.
want virility. The men must be fed
with something meaty, not chok'
ed to death with adjectives. Sem
mary stuff won't do"

The tests Of the hundreds Of samples Of
bottled beers were most severe. The Jury
which made the exhaustive tests Of the
brewery products was made up Of scen-
lists, university professors and chemists
of note appointed by the Belgium minis
ter of education.
SUBJECTED TO HEAT AND COLD.
The jury's task was q severe ono, the
tests of each beer extending over . con-
siderable time. Pabst "Blue Ribbon beer,
along with all the Others, was for weeks
alternately subjected to extreme degrees
of heat and cold. OF all the beers 10
tested Pabst "Blue Ribbon" beer Wa the
only one found upon examination to r.
tain all the properties originally con-
tanned in the brew. It was finally deter
mined that the "Blue Ribbon" beer took
first place among all the other varieties
submitted by American and European
breweries. Consequently the highest pos
sihle honors of the exposition were
awarded.
The fact that the American beer took
first place was all the more remarkable
from the fact that it vas necessarily
transported a great distance, a factor
that might ordinarily have been a decided
handicap as against the other beers sent
to Antwerp. The time that the beer was
in transit from the brewery In Milwaukee
was something like four weeks, and it il
a generally accepted theory that beer
loses through transportation. The Pabst
beer apparently was unaffected. It's dura-
biity and pureness we're found upon ex-
animation to be without fault.
The exposition at Antwerp this year
wa held during the months of June, July
and August, the months in which the
tourist travel is largest. 1t was opened
by King Leopold, under whose protecto-
rate it was held, the vsrious monarchiss
and the French republic appointing dele
gates to represent them in the interna-
tional show. The exhibits were placed
in the great building erected several years
ago at Antwerp and designed especially
for large expositions of the nature Of tho
pure food show. The juries appointed
to make tests in the several depart
ments of the exposition were appointed
by the Belgian minister of education with
the approval of the different nations par
ticipating in the gathering, the members
being selected with special view to their
peculiar fitness to Judge of the merits of
the products coming under their exam
nation. One of the noted members of
the jury which undertook the stipend
GUS task of testing the bottled beers and
awarding prizes was Prof. Alfred Jorgen-
sen of Copenhagen, Denmark, than whom
there is no better known authority on
the subject of scientific and hygienio
brewing. Others on the jury were men
of u%ndoubted ability in their line. The
fact that the host of exhibitors in the
department Of brewing unanimously ap-
proved Of the membership Of the jury be-
speaks their ability.
1t is probable that the awards now in
the care of The Pabst Brewing company
will be placed on exhibition at an
early date, it being the desire of the Of
fcials to permit the public at large to
examine the medals and diploma signi-
fying the par excellence of Pabst Blue
Ribbon Beer.

The Negro Instruction Of 1881.

l suppose there are incidents
that took place during the child
hood of persons that are never
forgotten to the end of life. One
such took place during the fourth
year of my life, when my father
said that the negroes we're going
to rise and we must go to Unsle
Billie's. who lived about three
miles away. On arriving there
we found that a crowd had already
gathered there, the meaning of
which I could not understand, and
we returned the next day. As I
grew older I learned that a plot
had been made by the negroes in
in some sections to kill the white
people at that time which plot had
been'discovered. It seems that
Nat Turner, iwhoit is.supposed was
anseducated slave of Southampton
county, Va, was at the head sof
the plot, who.with a band of &c. or
60 did. on Sunday night, August
81st, 1881, murder IS white people
in said county. Nat with others
was executed Nov. 18th. 1881. ]
don't suppose the negroes of this
section had anything to do with
the plot, though it is said there
were some about Rockingham that
were connected with it.
It is said that a camp meeting
was being held at Zion, not fa1
from Rockingham when the plot
was discovered. and 1t created
such excitement that all services
were suspended and a guard placed
around the campmeeting and al
lowing only certain ones to pass
the lines; giving it the appearance
of a military camp. We thinl
this affair led the Legislature Of
North Carolina to enact a law
making it a crime to try to teach
a slave to read or write. The pen
atty for violating this law remain
ed in force till slavery was abol
ished. I suppose that it was thu
violation of this law that &
