in many years is the ana
the writer, Mr.. Harris Dickson, pro-
ceeds to prove his point. His erGu-
ment lies along the line Of crop rota-
ton; before the days of the Weev1l the
Southern States, notably, LOUISIANA
and Texas, raised cotton and cotton
alone. If the cotton crop failed inc

Taen came the b0ltweevil and as
sasxpated the King on his throne;
the result was Industrial anarchy TOR
awhile, but before long the peopie
found, as they have always found, that
the world was not bound up IN the
King. Experiment proved that even

the farrners are ruled by no II r
state of freedom that there was
no reasonable hope Of their attaining

moved. Therefore, as a hberator, ar
cues Nj. Dickson, the boll-Weev1l was
a great blessing.
However, that may be in the case
OF the Gulf states, and we think it fs
true even therefi there Is no DOUBT
that the k~Ol1-Woevil has been a bless

fl. ourselves that we have never
bowed down to It in the absolute idol

yet, cotton is undoubtedly King up

there is little sympathy felt for them.
The occasion of this somewhat te-

TOBACCO TRUST SENATOR
Rockingham Tobacco Farmers
Will Bury Wray
inSham Tobacco Farmers WilI e
That No Man of Wray-s Stamp Is
Again Elected senator.
(MadiSon Herald.0

The Herald desires To call the at
tention of the tobacco farmers OF
Rockingham county to the fact that
Mr.. ". B. Wray. who was nominated
Monday for the State Senate By the
Republican county convention, is the
same gentleman who WAS picked up
by the Republicans and the American
Tobacco Company two years ago and
used to defeat Reuben ID. Reid. the
best and ablest friend the tobacco
Of North Carolina ever had In
the Legislature. We desire TO calf
their attention also to the fact that
during the entire time he sat IN the
Senate that if he ever voted with the
people and against the American To-
bacco Company q single time. we
failed to hear of it. IF anybody has
heard of it, please let Us hear from
You.
Reuben Reid is dead now and gone
to his final Judgment, but he IS not
forgotten by the people of this county,
and It is their duty to see that no man
of Mr.. Ways stamp ever again occu-
pies the seat in the Senate which was
SO highly honored by him during his
short term of office. 1t is all right
for our tobacco farmers to join ne
Farmers Union, build big prizeries,
etc, in an effort to check the highway
robbery Of the q trust, and The
Herald heartily coLamends them Tor
so doing and wishes them GodSpeed
in their efforts, but they must ALSO
see to it that no man goes TO the
Legislature to represent then whose
heart and sympathieS are not with
them in their battle for justice ana
the right.
1t Is strictly up to the tobacco farm
ers of Rockingham to say whether
this man Wray, with his
ideas. ever gets back to Raleigh 70
represent the sentiment Of this sec
ton, and we predict that he will be
buried alive" his fall. b people
know where he stands now and II he
is reelected they have no one to
blame but themselves.
Again. we say, If is strictly up to the
farmers Of Rockingham to say who
shall represent them in the Senate
q man who votes IN their interest or
that Of the American Com
piny.

BURR CLOVER,
a Money Crop AS Wei AS a Land Inc.
proven.
(TarhOrO SOnt

(Tarboro Southerner.)
Editor S~outherner:
Replying to your inquiry IN regard
to the crop of Burr Clover seeds
Just marketed, l Will say: had a
little over FOUR acres in Burr Ci6yer
on "BeechWood" better known as the
collins place" A part Of this was
fenced off and eleven calves and
yearlings kept on it for three or four
weeks in the spring; no other food
was given them and each one i'm
proved wonderfully in every way. The
rest Of the plat was allowed to go to
seed. In June there was harvested
and nave just marketed $40 pounds
Of cleaned seed in the burr. Tt csc
seed have been sold for s551.2G; re-
tanning 500 pounds for my own use.
The cost Of saving, cleaning AID de-
iivering at depot was 10 cents per
bushel, leaving the receipts $500 net
from the four acres.
On account Of lack Of knowledge
as to best methods Of saving and
cleaning, not more than half Of the
sesd was saved and the cost was
doubled, besides q number of my
neighbors were allowed to save as
much SEED SIS they wanted for their
own use. which is not included in
these figures. I firmly believe that
those having land adapted to his
crop who will plant a few acres Will
find it 8 most profitable product,
apart from its land improving prop
erty, which is second to none of the
legunes. There is a great demand now
for the seeds. How long it will last Of
course no one can tell.
From my knoledge Of the country I
am sure that there are very few farms
but what have some acres which with

Another Argument for Raising Corn
Right

AS suggested in a newsv story of
lhlS paper yesterday, a fact of great
significance in relation to corn row
ing was brought up by the windstorm
the other night. It is, to many of US
at least, a brand new argument in
1aVor of modern in corn
raising Whereas much corn all
trough this section was blown flat
and greatly damaged, contest corn"
too kbut little harm. This may or may
not have been the general experience
out there are localities where care
iessiy cultivated corn was blown
down, and prize acres stood up.
There are several ways in which
tins may be accounted for. The
contest corn. planted thick and
grown under favorable conditions has
become q heavy, more or less COM
pact mass, capable of resisting the
force Of the wind. Then again, with
deep seed bed and shallow cultivation
the stalks are perfectly rooted and
the roots have not been disturbed.
The roots Of q stalk of corn, you will
remember, II placed end to end, would
reach more than a mile.
Another theory is h flat cultiya-
ton aided. Everyone has observed
strong false top rocks or feeIers, ex-
actly in the position Of braces at the
bottom Of the post. The flat system
of cultivation gives these braces a sur
lace upon which to brace when the
stalk is subject to strain.
We do not recall having seen the
statement in print that corn scientifi-
cally SroWn will resist wind better
than corn not so cultivated: but
doubtless the idea is not new.

NITRATE OF SODA FOE POTA-
TOES.

Nitrate OF Soda is also now as
Chile Salpetre. AS put upon the
market it is quite uniform in coD1Do-
sition, containing about Is pounds Of
nitrogen to each 100 pounds of nitrate
Of soda. It usually Tetails from $40
to $50 per ton.
1t should not BE applied much be-
fore crops are able to use it, and
better results are obtained if it is ap-
piled in small amounts at two or
three different times during t,e
growth Of the plants, rather than all
at once
It should be applied to the surface
soil and lightly cultivated in. It is one
of the most effective heterogeneous
fertilizers when properly handled 1t
should seldom be used in excess of
800 pounds per acre, and one-half his
amount is usually sufficient.
The nitrate Of soda sould not come
in direct contact with the seed part
Of the potatoes.
Prof. VOORHEES,, director Of the New
Jersey experiment station at New
Brunswick. n. j., has made some
valuable experiments with nitrate Of
soda, and he will send you g bulletin

FOR JUSTICE OF THE PEACE.

Allen C. Bragg is a candidate for
justice of the peace of Ely Township
before the Republican primary cleo
tion to be held September 9Th. Mr..
Bragg Is an old time Nevadan, hav-
ing been a resident of the state since
1864, and during the time that has
interviewed between then and now
he has been an active participant in
all public affairs. For twenty years
he was editor and proprietor of the
Reno Gazette and the Influence of
his pen upon all question of interest
to the people was statewide. His
private character as well as his pub
lie life have been infinitely above re-
proach. He is a disciple of the
square deal and his sense of fairness
together with his familiarity of local
conditions make him a logical candi-
date for the Office of his choice.
About eighteen months ago he was
elected police Judge of Ely and the
record he has made is alike credit
able to himself and those who sup
ported him for that Office. His
method of dealing with evil doors has
caused them to seek more congenial
ciimes and his absolute impartiality
in all matters coming before him for
adjudication has won commentator
from all classes. Mr.. Bragg is a Re-
publican and a firm believer in the
great underlying principles of that
form of government, but never in his
whole life has he been Extensively
partisan. He is too broad and too
honest for that. His announcement
card will be foud in another
column.

SENDING NEWS TO HEAVEN.

The one of church services should
be always iinpersonal. The most sue
cessful preachers are those who al
thunder against wrong in such alb
stract ways that every member of the
congregation can pick out some other
as a mark of the preachers righteous
wrath. Naming names, or SO clearly
indicating individuals as to brand
them In the eyes of .ne congregation,
would not be charity, even In a SER
mon. The negro preacher who an
nounced that he had detected a
member of his congregation in chick
en- stealing, and threatened to hurl a
missile at him, did not need to be
nor specific. When, with the missile
in hand. he struck the attitude for
hurting it, that brother in a front
pew who ducked, named himself.
Neither was this Christian sharity. in
the strictest sense of the word. But
1t had in 1t more of the essence of
charity than would be in the quality
of a sermon which would designate,
clearly enough for the general identi-
fication. any member of the congre-
cation as being guilty of deadly sins.
To grow personal in a prayer Is
not only uncharitable, but is highly
ridiculous. A prayer is heard by. but
not addressed to those present. 1t
Is spoken to one who, knowing all
things, and searching all hearts. may
safely be assumed to have advance
knowledge of any shortcoming of any

should be an end to the hiding OF
money on the person or in supposed
well concealed places about the
premises. Trunks are not safe re-
positories nor are carpet edges, dark

however unreasonable such over
cautious people may be, is known to
exist, and now the question is if they
will have faith enough in the Nation
al Government to conhde a surplus
of money to it, at interest, rather
than carry it around sewed in cloth
ing or in the traditional stocking
stuffed in some odd nook presumed
to be unnoted by the lynx eyes of the
dishonest. A large amount of cur
rency is believed to be kept out of
circulation by boarding of this haZar-
dous sort. The new law should bring
it out. One argument for the pass
age of the law assumed that the
money now in concealment would be
poured into the active channels of
business.

that copper shares will enhance in
