THE SOLUTION OFT OF IT.

A million dollars worth of freight
cars are idle and several thousand
locomotives. To be exact, the reports
made to the American Railway asso-
citation show that 33S. 900 cars were
idle on January %. This is a good
many, but a less number were idle on
January % than we're idle on January
s. The difference is but 5000 cars, but
the improvement, small as it is, shows
that the tide has turned in the railway
business which is the best possible
barometer of general trade.
The bank clearings were the lowest
in the last week of December, and the
railway earning touched bottom on
January 8. Since those dates bank
clearings have been increased and the
idle cars are slowly coming into use,
and they are being sem home. When
the railw ay business begins to look up
and bank clearings begin to increase,
the return to normal conditions of gen.
eral business is but a matter of time.
The depression will be felt only for a
while. It will not interfere with the
making or marketing of crops, and
this brings Us to the true solution Of our
troubles, namely, big crops OF cot
ton, corn, wheat and oats next fall.
Just as soon as these are guaranteed
the c~ontractions in business due to the
panic will disappear, and we will be
ready to enter on another long period
of development and prosperity. It
is not Easy to keep a great country
down.

WHO USES HYOMEI.
The Best People In Goldsboro,
Saws J. II. Hill & Son.

No other remedy or treatment for ca
tarrh has aver been as popular or made
so many remarkable cures in Colds
boro as Hyomei.
The best people attest its curative
virtues in catarrhal troubles, says j.
H. Hill 81 Son, who are the local agents.
The fair way in which Hyomei was
sold, to refund the money unless it gave
satisfaction, was the best proof when it
was introduced that it possessed un-
usual curative powers. j. H. Hill &
Son took all the risk of b treatment
giving satisfaction, and left it to the
purchasers to be the judge.
The sales rapidly grew and to-day
there is no other remedy in j. H. Hill
&c Sons stock that has such a large and
staple sale.
The first breath of Hyomei's healing
air kills all catarrhal poison.
Try Hyomei to-day on J. Fl. Hill q
Sons offer to refund the money if the
treatment does not give you satisfac-
r.

EFFECT OF GREAT CROPS.

The speed OF business reaction in a
broad and prosperous country is sur
prising when details are studied. Be
fore October %, for example, there
We're not enough locomotives to move
the traffic offered, and within a single
month after that date $500 locomotives
We're Idle.
In December 10, 600 men were laid
off in the Baldwin locomotive works
of Philadelphia, and the general man
ager OF the big concern thus speaks of
the future:
mo substantial orders have come in
since December. Whereas we were
turning out about so locomotives a
week, we are now turning out only 20.
and we will have finished up all our
work in a short time. Then, unless we
receive some substantial orders in the
meantime, we will have to close"
"What have been responsible for
this?" he was asked.
Lack of orders O only from Amer
lea, but from foreign countries. Japan
is in financial roubles and is sending
US no orders at all. It is the same
everywhere"
But all this may be reversed speed
lily. Big crops this fall would call back
n use every car n every locom-
tive, and the works in Philadelphia
would again feel the impulse Of large
orders.
The presidential election would not
block the marketing of crops. When
great crops of cotton, corn, wheat and
oats are harvested they must be moved
to market, and this I'M turn starts up
plants of all sorts from those that make
plows, and this means that general
trade would at once become normal.
THERE'S nothing that can resist the
effects of great crops. They mean
everything that goes to make up gen
eral business, everything needed to
restore confidence, activity and pros
perity.

Secretary Cortelyou predicted a sur

a deficit of 314, 900, 900 has been scored,

have to face a deficit of 800, OOO. 600 in
June, 1909. and even if he did the
treasury would still have an abund-
