development In all these. however. the
element OF time has been a most impor ant
"a ctor and IN advent OF some method Of
rapid transit to the sick chamber has been
looked forward to eagerly by busy practi-
toners in both town and country. When
the motor car was first introduced its ad-
vent was hailed with JOY, which turned
rapidly into chagrin when 1t was found that
the owner, who went gaily forth in the
morning on gasoline power was apt to be
hauled sadly back at night by truck
horse.
Under the influence OF keen competition
manufacturers have changed all this and
even wi h the cheap or moderate-p'iced cars
which are especially suitable for the doc
tors use the liability to be put out Of use
fulness Is not materially greater than the
morbidlty OF the horse, so that on the score
OF reliability the horse and the motor car
are about on a par Indeed, 1t Is asserted
that the risks are all in favor of the ma
chine and against the animal but as re-
liable statistics are not available this opin-
lon may be colored by self-nterest. To the
casual observer 1t would seem that the
chances of being disabled are about as
great with one method of conveyance as
with the other.
Now that the machine has been put into
such shape and reduced to such cost as TO
make it available for the average doctor
the comparative fitness of the machine and
the horse for the uses of the physician must
be discussed from economic standpoint.
Here the machine has distinctly the advan-
tage. The cost of operating any one of sew
eral reliable low-prlced cars, especially
fitted for the Doctors use. runs only from
$40 to $15 a month, and the repairs for the
first year, including tires, under ordinary
conditions, would probably not amount to
more than $40 or S12.
This cost compared with the main
tenance of horse and phaeton, is very
small indeed. But the cost of repairs after
the first year will mount up, and the mat
ter Of deterioration must be reckoned with.
The average low-priced car, one costing
from 5000 to $1,000. can usually be sold at
the end of the first year at a discount Of
40 per cent from the price paid for it when

TwoRobeson County Men, White

in Scotland County by Dis
playing Guns.

Word was received at Laurin-
burgFriday about noon that at the
store of R. E. Lee, just north of
town, negro was making as
saults and defantly patrolling
the road with a pistol. Deputy
Sheriff Lamar Smith Immediately
went to the scene and found the
negro, Walter Mcneil, late of
the Robson county chain gang.
disarmed and being guarded.
Deputy Smith started to town
with the negro in an automobile.
After they reached town, while
passing a buggy they found
themselves looking down a pistol
barrel and brought the machine
to a stop. Deputy Smith got out
and told the man, one Chas. Liv-
ingston. from the upper part of
Robson, to consider himself un-
der arrest. Livingston did not
like this any better than being
passed by an automobile, so he
pointed his pistol at the deputy,
who discreetly stepped behind a
post and pointed his gun at Liv-
lngston. After the deputy cir
cled around the post a few, Liv.
ingston made break for his
buggy, slipped, was disarmed,
and then was placed in the Of
Tending automobile and carried
to jail. Later he was released
under bonds aggregating $3.50
for his appearance before the re-
corder on April 4.

BORN WITH TUSKS.
Pigs Down Orrum Way Arrive
With Tusks and their Days
are Few and Without Milk
A Remedy Being Tried.

Down Orrum way singular
things are coming to pass. Ev-
cry pig Uttered thereabouts re-
Gently has had we'll developed
tusks, shas on account of these
tuskS been unable to get nour-
ishment, and has straightway
sickened and died. They are
born with the implements of
war. but these very implements
make it impossible for them to
procure the nurture necessary TO
bring them to warlike stature.
The tusks of some of the last
ones to arrive were pulled and
some of these are living yet, and
this may be the solution of the
problem. In these latter days
when a hog is worth mighty
nigh his weight in gold it is
pretty serious thing to lose so
many pigs and it is to be hoped,
if pigs down Orrum way contin-
ue to insist on being born with
a fierce set of tusks like a boar,
that dental operations may be en-
tirely successful; else the piggies
will all die and there will be
great distress througout that
section. And how then shall the
people be comforted?
Mr.. w. O. Britt. of Orrum
brings this interesting informa
ton about the tusked pigs. L
would be interesting to know il
like phenomena have appeared
elsewhere.

A Talk on Divers flied Farming
Should Raise Melons.

Mr.. w. w. Mckay. a success
full farmer who lives near Max
ton, addressed a few business
men and farmers in the commits
sioner's room in the court house
Friday afternoon on diversified
farming. On account of lack of
advertising the crowd was small,
which is much to be regretted,
because what Mr.. Mckay had to
say was we'll worth the attention
of any farmer. Mr.. Mckay says
that farmers should diversity
their crops more. By so doing the
land will be greatly improved and
the farmer will have something
from which he can realize money
at all seasons of the year. He
contends that the farmers should
do more trucking; there is good
money in raising watermelons
and there should be more of them
planted, but the farmer should
be careful in the selection OF seed
in order to grow a good melon.
He,recommends theEdenGem and
the Imperial Triumph. He says
that a farmer can make from
S100 to $125 per acre on melons
and then make from 1900 to 1000
pounds of hay to the acre, and
have land in fine shape for cottc n
another year.

''The Xxx club is something new.
Even if you are feeling sad and blue,
The fun we have would weigh a ton,
In the Xxx club of Lu Il berton.
