Rockingham jail yesterday morn
ing to the State penitentiary by
Guard w. H. Miller, who is himself
a native of East Rockingham.

TEN DEMaNDMfNIS'

A Chicago man who has a large
number of employees under him has
posted up in the various depart
ments of his establishment cards
which bear the above caption and
the following terse rules. These
make it very plain what he expects
and what he does not expect OF
those who draw salaries from him.
Rule l.-Don't lie it wastes my
time and yours. Pm sure to eaten
YOU in the end, and that's the wrong
end.
Rule Watch your work, not
the clock. Along days work makes
a long day short and a days snort
work makes my face long.
Rule III.-Give me more than L
expect and I'll give you more than
you expect. | can afford to increase
your pay if you increase my prot
its.
Rule ". - You owe SO much TO
yourself that you can't afford to
owe anybody else. Keep out OF
debt or keep out of my shops.
Rule V.-Dishonesty is never an
accident. Good men, like good
women, can't see temptation when
they meet it.
Rule VI. = Mind your own bust
ness and in time you'll have bus
inesss of your own to mind.
VII. Don't do anything here
which hurts your self-respect. The
employe who is willing to steal for
me is capable of stealing from me.
Rule VIII. = It'snone of my bus
mess what you do at night, but if
dissipation affects what you do next
day, and you do half as much as /
demand, you'll last half as long as
you hoped.
Rule IX.-Don't tell me what
I'd like to hear, but what l ought
to hear. | don't want valet to
my vanity, but [ need one for my
dollars.
Rule X Don't kick if | kick -
if you're worth while correcting
you're worth while keeping. | don't
waste time cutting specks out of
rotten apples.

AN ORDER.

Made by Board of Supervisors at
it's May, 1909, meeting, regulating
the running of traction engines on
county roads.
Pursuant to an act of the Gener-
al Assembly approved March IA,
1906, (Acts 1906, page 1922, it is
ordered that all persons are hereby
prohibited from running traction
engines over the county roads for
the purpose of hauling freight at
all times, except when the roads
are dry and unnecessary damage
will not be caused, and all persons
are hereby required when running
traction engines over said roads for
any purpose, to carry with them
boards of sufficient length and
thickness upon which to run said
engines and the wagons or machines
drawn by them, when crossing
bridges and culverts, so that the
same will not be damaged by said
engines. Any violation of this or
der will be deemed misdemeanor,
and shall be punishable by fine
of not less than SIS nor more than
500 for each offence.
The clerk of the Board is direct
ed to cause this order to be pub
lished once in the Highland Re-
,order, and this order shall be in
,orce ten days after such publica-
ton.

ANIMAL TUBERCULOSIS

The bureau of animal industry
department of agriculture calls at
tention to the increase of tubercu-
losus among live stock, as shown by
the examination of animals at the
slaughter houses. The increased
efficiency of inspection is, no doubt
the explanation for a part of this
rise in the number of affected eases;
but it is folly to accept this as the
only explanation. Nearly / per
cent. of the cattle and over 2 per
cent. of hogs have been found to be
tubercular when slaughtered, and
in Washington about II per cent.
of the dairy cattle reacted to tuber-
culin tests. 1t is estimated that
throughout the country at least 10
per cent. of dairy cows have the
disease. Considering the question
entirely from a business standpoint
the bureau points to the losses suf-
fered by breeders who have tuber-
culosus COWS in their herds, and
cites the loss in sales to Argentina,
which country requires that all cat
tie imported shall be subject to the
tuberculin test upon arrival. AS
consequence exports in the United
States have had the test made on
cattle intended for shipment, and
in some herds nearly so per cent,
of the cattle have been found to be
diseased, and have been refused.
The large packing houses now pre-,
fer to buy their cattle subject to
post-mortem examination, and the
reason for this is found in the fig
ures from abatiors where federal in
spection is maintained. During the
last year ten billions of pounds of
meat were inspected and forty six
millions were condemned, because
of tuberculosis. Sooner or later,
the economic loss will fall
upon the producer of diseased cat
tie; and in the realization of this
les the best hope for the stamping
put of the plague. Medical Record.

Date of Primary Set.

Richmond, Va. May l4.--In a
session that was at times stormy
and turbulent, the democratic state
central committee tonight fixed
August as the date for the hold
ing of the gubernatorial primary;
settled upon the assessment to be
lain upon the candidates; declined
to accept the temporary reslgna-
ton of Chairman Ellyson, who is
candidate for reelection as lieuten-
ant governor, and referred the
question of amending the primary
plan to IA subcommittee, with in
structions to seport back to the
next meeting of the full committee.
The present primary system was
bombarded from many quarters,
and if the applause which greets
the attacks upon it, conveys q fair
idea of the sentiment. it is not pop
ular, by any means, with the party
leaders.
An attempt was made to get a
resolution through, calling for a
state convention to frame a party
platform, but it was tabled by an
overwhelming majority,
The body was called to order by
Secretary BRENNAN, with Edward
Echols, of Staunton, in the chair,
in the absence of the regular chair
man, who had sent a message to
the body, that as he was a candi-
date for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, he
did not think it wise for him to
preside. In a moment resolution
followed appointing committee to
call Mr.. Ellyson to the room as the
presiding officer. He was forth
with called and presented, and Mr..
Echols retired.
A matter of important discussion
was the amount of assessment re-
quired from each candidate. The
amount needed was estimated at
So. 900, This was apportioned as
follows: To enter race for senate,
81 500; governor, 81 500; lieuten-
ant governor, $500; attorney gen.
eral, $500; treasurer, $500; secre--
tary of the commonwealth, $500;
superintendent of public instruc-
ton, $500; and commissioner of ag-
riculture, $500.

LAZY STREET"

There is a short, quaint street in
Bremen the name of which embodi-
a legend. The story of FanieH-
strasSe comes within the range of
possibility. The late Bishop John
F. Hurst tells the legend in "Lire
and Literature in the Fatherland. "
Once the thick forest grew where
the street now runs, and the trees
were old, large and strong
On the edge of the wood lived an
aged couple who had seven sons,
all big, strong and lazy. Indeed
the boys we're drones, and the neigh
bors said, when the brothers pass
ed, There 90 the idle seven" Ey-
cry one laughed at these big lads
who never worked. At last the
brothers grew tired of being mock
ed. Said one, angrily:
1--WE cannot go out OF this house
without even the children coming
up behind us and pulling our coats
aud crying, Lazy fellowsp Let
us go to work. "
At first the six brothers laughed
at this proposition, but finally,
wearied Of the neighbors' taunts,
they concluded to earn their liveli-
hood. They told their father Of
their resolution, but he smiled
scornfully.
"You have been idle too long to
be Industrious" he said.
The boys persisted in their ass
however, and at last the
father said:
If you are really determined to
60 to work, | will give you each Il
sum of money in gold and a new
suit of clothes. But first you must
give me proof that you are in earn
est. You must each procure an
axe and spade, and, carrying your
axe on your right shoulder and youe
spade in your left hand, walk in
procession through the, streets of
Bremen. :"
At first the young men shook
heir heads, but finally they accept
I'd the test. The people all came
o their doors to see the strange
procession go by. "The world must
,e coming to an end, they said.
The father kept his promise, and
he boys took their money and their
lothes and went off. They wan
Tered far, worked, persevered and
cquired property. Years passed
way. Many comforts came to the
title home IN the woods, but the
ons never appeared.
One beautiful spring morning the
itizens of Bremen were astOnished
0 see seven well-dressed gentlemen
ach carrying an axe and a spade,
1arching in procession through the
lty streets. There vas much GU
osity, and also great excitement,
hen it was found that the seven
lie sons" had returned.
A beautiful house was built where
ne little home stood, and the old
eople surrounded with every luxu-
Y, No road ran to that part OF
Re woods from the town, so the
rothers built broad way with
leir own hands.
"What shall we call our street,"
ley asked each other when it was
lished.
Much of our lives has been
'ent in idieness, said one. What
have lost we can never get back. I
ct us warn young people who are
clined to be lazy. We will call
e way FanienstyG&se or Lazy
