THURSDAY, FEBRUARY II, 1910.

Every so often something is
said about requiring the owners
Of the building occupied by Mr..
H. C. Boylin's jewelry store and
Mr.. J. H. Wishart's grocery store,
and the building occupied by
the Farmers & Merchants
Bank and Mr.. Meares' barber
shop to move back off the street.
But nothing has been done. And
folks wonder why. We believe
that all other owners of property
that occupied part of the public
streets have been required to
move back, and there have never
been instances where it was
more desirable that this be done
than in these cases. They jut out
upon the street and spoil its
whole appearance, and it is dis
couraging to other property own
ers on that street to improve
their property. If they were on
any street but the main business
street of the town it would not
be so bad, but standing where
they do it is as bad as can be. If
the mayor and town commission
ers would take hold of this mat
Ter at once and require buildings
to be moved back even with the
other buildings on the street,
they would do themselves proud.
Of course it would cause a how
to be raised from some quarters,
but nobody would be hurt in the
end and it certainly should be
done.

Some of the correspondents of

the evidences Of prosperity about
over the county-new residences
and out-houses being built, ex-
tensive ditching being done, wire
fences going up, etc. It is the

Our correspondent who signs
himself ''Ex-Lumbertonian" may
rest assured that the waters
fine and that if he will "drive in
on the next train" lots of folks
here will be glad to see him and
he may fish with hook and line to
his hearts content, with no one
to modest or make afraid. But
we cannot throw any light upon
the why's and wherefores of Red
Breast being offered in album
dance on other markets at this
time of year, for your hook-and-
line fisherman is not in evidence
at this season and the law says
that fish shall not be caught in
the Lumbee at any time during
the year with seines and traps
Maybe Col. N. A. Mclean or Mr.
Sam Branch can throw some ligh'
upon the subject, if they will
not that they are guilty Bless
you, No-but what they dom
know about Lumber river fish i
not worth knowing.

An Italian student Of bird life has
advanced the theory that birds go
north in summer and south in winter
In order that they may have longer
days in which to feed. This may be
true as far as 1t goes, but it would be
more appropriate to say that the birds
make their migratory trips when they
do to secure more abundant food
supply, and their food supplies, most
ly insects, are most plentiful where
the weather is warmest and the days
are longest

is done before freeze-up and dirt is

The problem of good roads comes
home close to every gardener and
farmer who has various kinds Of prod
uce to haul to a market located at
any considerable distance from the
producing point. The loss involved
is the result of having to haul a small
load instead of large one, the wear
and tear on harnesses and horses, as
well as the time lost by both man and
outfit And the loss is none the less
real even though it is not usually fig
ured into the regular expense account.

A patriotic and farsighted wealthy
resident of Monterey, Cal, few years
ago organized what he was pleased to
style the Tin Can club from the fact
that the children who became men,
bers were urged to start Seeding or
small trees in tin cans, to care for
them indoors until they were large
enough to set them out and then put
them in the ground. From this small
beginning the movement has spread
until it has extended to several other
states, the title of the club being
changed to the Tree Growing Clubs OF
America. Last year one California
club made arrangements with one
man to plant 10000 trees suitable for
lumber purposes, 1t being agreed to
pay 10 cents for each tree planted and
guaranteed to grow. In SOlano county
the supervisors offered a dollar for
each black walnut tree planted by the
clubs on the public highways, while in
other localities 5 and 10 cents apiece
was paid for trees planted in the
streets and parks. Another practical
phase of the work of the clubs lies in
the fact that the members are asked
to send to the officers information
about the trees growing in their re-
gpective localities, together with a de-
scription of the soil and climatic con-
ditions under which different varieties
do best, so that specific directions may
be given as to planting and care.

A proper idea of the right and wrong
OF taking property which belongs to
another is instinct with most folks,
yet many seem to have a very hazy
idea when 1t comes to the inconven-
ience and loss of time which they may
cause another through failure to keep
appointments promptly. Fifteen, or
twenty minutes do not seem much in
the case of one person, but it means
two hours when six are concerned.

 In addition to views of the principal public buildings and institutions of the city there are many of the finest resi- dences of the district. Many handsome views from the various suburbs of Bir- mingham are presented. Practically all of the newer school buildings of Greater Birmingham arc represented and the book taken as a whole is such anyone can be proud 10 send away to friends out side the city.
 The predatory note of Birmingham de Iuxe,, says: Some of the beauty of Birmingham homes is portrayed in these pages, and some of the dignity and power of Birmingham'S industrial and commer- cial enterprise is suggested. In this year 191o when the city is standing on the threshold of an assured greatness 'Bir- mingham de Luxe is typical of what has already been accomplished and prophetic Of the grander things to come.
