A Mammoth Deal in Corn-How
Mr.. J. w. Carter Reckoned
Without the Cumulative
Power of Geometrical Ratio.
When Messrs. Neil Carter
and A. ]. McKinnon, of Maxton,
started fishing the other day Mr..
j. W. Carter sauntered down to
the gate with them they started
out from Mr.. J. WIS house-and
told them, as d parting shot, that
he'd give them gallon of corn
for the first fish they caught, tive
gallons for the second, and so on,
doubling the amount for every
additional fish. And then Mr..
Carter went about his bus
mess and thought no more about
it until the next day, when
Messrs. Carter and McKinnon
came to him with the startling
announcement that they had
caught q fish and that he,
Mr.. J. w. Carter accord
ing to the terms of his prom
Use, owed them 2,O97, ISL gallons,
or 262, 1435 bushels, of corn!
Mr.. j. W. Carter is a large
farmer and he raises lots and
lots of corn, but he doesn't cal
culate that he will raise quite
that much corn this year. Not
quite. When Mrs. Carter heard
about what a pretty hoWdy-do
he'd gotten into by going to the
gate with the other Mr.. Carter
and Mr.. McKinnon she told him
she guessed next time he'd stay
in the house and mind his own
business.
That's the way it figures out.
If you don't believe it. figure ii
out for yourself. Corn is worth
81. 10 a bushel, or Whereabouts,
so that many bushels of corn are
worth, in round numbers, $288,
1853.
And just suppose Mr.. Garter
really had to make it good!

How About McNeilPs Bridge?

Acallerat The Robesonian office
yesterday morning wants to
know what the county commits
sioners are going to do about
McNeill's bridge. He says that
the bridge was condemned as
dangerous some time ago, and it
seems to him that naturally it is
getting more dangerous all the
time, for nothing has been done
about it, so far as he knows.
Months ago-last fall, perhaps it
was-an estimate was made as
to the cost of replacing this
bridge with a steel bridge, but it
seems that the matter was al
lowed to rest there.
