this way the children are made self

Failure Not a Disgrace.

What an unfortunate thing that
the idea should be dinned into the
ear of youth everywhere, that it is a
disgrace to fail-that is, to fail to
make money, to accumulate proper
ty. 1t is not a disgrace to fail; but
it is disgrace not to do ones level
best to succeed. Not failure, but
low ai.,o is crime"
Multitudes Of poor people to-day
who are not known outside Of their
own little communities are really
great successes when measured by
all that makes true greatness their
heroic Gndeavors, their brave battle
for years with obstacles, playing a
losing game with heroism. Their
great patience and wonderful self
control under the criticism of those
who do not understand them are
evidences that they have succeeded.
The possession of a noble character
is the greatest evidence in the world
that one has succeeded.
On the other hand, if a man has
gotten a fortune, but has left his
manhood on the way to it; if he has
bartered his good name in the pro-
cess of getting it, he is still fail
ure, no matter how much money he
may have accumulated.
A clean record is the greatest
kind of a success. And how few
men who make big fortunes manage
to save their good name, to keep
their record clean.
The mere possession Of money
may be no evidence whatever that a
man has succeeded. If he cannot
control himself; if his aims are low
and vulgar; if he is greedy and grasp
ing and selfish; if he takes advant-
age Of others; if he robs others Of
opportunity; if he has used them as
stepping-stones upon which to climb
to his fortune, he is a failure meas
ured by all that constitutes real
man-real values that are worth
while.-O. S. Marden, in Success
Magazine.

The Brave at Home.

The maid who binds her warrior S
sash,
With a smile that well her pain
dissembles,
The while beneath her dropping
One starry teardrop hangs and
trembles.
Though heaven alone records the
tear
And fame will never know her
story.
Her heart has shed drop as dear
AS e'er bedewed the field of glory.
The wife who girds her husband s
sword
Mid little ones who weep or
wonder,
And bravely speaks the cheering
word,
What though her heart be rent
asunder.
Doomed nightly in her dreams to
hear
The bolts of death around him
rattle,
Hath shed as sacred blood as e'er
Was poured upon the field of
battle.
The mother who conceals her grief
While to her breast her son she
presses,
Then breathes few brave words
and brief
Kissing the patriot, brow she
blesses,
With no one but her sacred God
To know the pain that weighs up
up her,
Sheds holy blood as DER the sod
Received on freedoms field of
honor.

What Crops to Plant.


munication appeared in the
Enfield Progress of January
22nd.
At this season of the year the
farmers are naturally debating
within themselves what to
plant as money crop. In this
and adjoining counties they
can raise cotton, peanuts and
tobacco successfully and we
would advise planting all of
these. Don't depend entirely
upon one money crop. Experts
estimate the 1908 crop of cotton
to be about thirteen million
bales and with the usual crop
planted this year and with large
surplus on hand we can not
reasonably expect much higher
prices for the next crop. Pea
nuts are selling well and we
believe the acreage will be in
creased considerably, not only
in what is known as the peanut
belt, but through the country
where tried. For several years
the farmers in this section have
gradually decreased their crops
Of tobacco until only a small
quantity is now raised. Hall
fax, Nash, Edgecombe and
Northampton counties can
boast of as fine tobacco land as
there is in the State, and there
is no reason why our farmers
can not raise as good quality Of
tobacco and as much per acre
as anvwere. There is territory
tributary to Enfield if planted
in tobacco as is done around
the towns of Wilson, Green
vile, and others, to make En-
field one of the large markets
of the State and at the same
time our people generally would
be benefited. If there was not
money III growing tobacco in
these sections mentioned, do
you think they would continue
the business?
Tobacco sold well this season
and will still do SO and we hon
estly believe our farmers will dis
play wisdom by planting more
tobacco. For with a shortage
of several years, and an extra
large shortage of sixty-five mil
lion pounds in 1908, compared
with 1907 crop, prices will con
tinue good for some years. One
of the best posted men in Amer
lea on tobacco says "the 1908
crop is of good quality and that
prices will remain high enough
to pay the farmers good profit,
and it is to be hoped they will
raise large crops this year, as
according to my opinion, it will
take several years of very large
crops before sufficient stocks
can be accumulated to make
prices much lower. 1t used to
be the general advice to farm
ers to raise as fine tobacco as
possible. but it seems now that
the common tobaccos. are sell
ing better than the good ones.
The main reason for this is that
there is more competition for
the low and medium grades
than for the best grades, and
that many people who former
ly used good tobacco will try
TO make common tobacco do
instead

The citizens Of the Territories of
Arizona and New Mexico are asking
that the Territories be admitted as
States. Considered in the light of
precedent, and from the standpoint
Of population, climate, mineral and
agricultural resources, there is no
reason why they should not be ad-
mitted. Arizona has a population
ton of about 100000. 1t is useless
to enumerate its resources, when it
is known that these, together with
its splendid climate, account for the
growth it has made since 1900, when
its population was only 122, ,J31.
New Mexico has a rapidly increasing
population. While much Of its land
is fit only for grazing, it has wide
valleys Of exceeding richness, and
has carried to a science the art of
irrigation, and have made fertile
acres that were barren. In sheep
and cattle and mines the wealth of
New Mexico runs into the millions.
In many respects the two Territories.
as such, are more blessed than many
States.

The power and privileges that the
trusts have been enjoying for so
long a time are gradually being
taken away from them. To the de-
cisions Of the United States Su-
preme Court in regard to the Texas
case, and the New York S0-cent gas
case, there has been added another
decision, which holds that an illegal
combination cannot collect debts
through the courts. The paper
trust sued a Cincinnati firm for
$4,000, balance due on 100000.
The amount sued for was claimed to
be the excess that had to be paid
because Of shutting out competition.
If the trusts, at every thrust continue
to sustain some injury, it will not be
long before they will cease to trust
that with money all things are posi-
bic, and under this last decision it
will probably be wise for the trusts
not to trust.
