Much is being said just now about the
conservation of our natural resources
especially our forests. but the average
reader fails to take the talk 10 heart.
he thinks it very well for the man who
lives 100 miles away to be very careful
how he depletes the national wealth.
but when other work is slack about the
farm and the wood pile is low, Mr..
Average Man will go to his patch Of
woods and cut as if be had never heard
OF conservation. A great gain would
result to every farmer as well as to the
community if he were careful TO utilize
only defective timber for fuel purposes
and leave the straight trees for lumber.
A still greater benefit would result If
ne would form the habit of planting
seedlings in all small openings.

For forty years." says a recent bull
letin of the Department of Agriculture.
the average depth of breaking land in
North Carolina has been about four
inches with an average yield of less
than 10 bushels per acre. Last year
the men engaged in farmers demon
stration work broke 5000 acres from
SIX to ten inches deep and harvested a
little over 40 bushels per acre" The
moral of this brief statement is OBJ
vious, but there should be some discre-
ton exercised and deep blowing must
not be applied recklessly. Shallow
lands should be turned gradually deeper
and deeper, the clay being worked a
little at time.

WITH A LITTLE CHANGE.

The Roanoke Times in its issue of the
Srd instant had an editorial: The Re-
publican Press" 1t was besotted eff
fort to belittle and discredit the inf,u-
ence OF the Republican press in the
Ninth district. The charges of vepalitv
OF poverty, and lack of support are
made against the Republican papers in
the Ninth, and the Times is so surprised
that it exclaims:
We do not know why it is that
with so many Republicans voting
the support for Republican newspa-
pers is so thin as it seems to be. 1t
may be that considerable propor-
ton of the Republican vote can't
read and if it could read would not
&c Republican," and that that
part OF 1t which can read is too
intelligent to read Republican news
papers"
mere Is an unintentional compliment
paid the Republican newspapers. Thew
are not subsidized and do not shane
their political views with an eve to ex-
tended circulation-to money making at
the sacrifice of moral and political con-
viction. And the Times, while feasting
upon the prosperity it has thus attain
eo' with gloating ridicule, processes to:
PITY the poor pie eater. Prob
aoiy his lot is not a happy one al
though for personal and prudent
reasons he keeps his troubles to
himself. Probably in Virginia he
has to do good deal toward main
tanning the local republican news
papers. 1t is said there is no para-
site so small but that some parasite
yet smaller attaches and sucks its
life
The smallest creatures that there
be
Are tortured by the biting flea:
And ffeas have other fieas to bite
um
And so it goes ad infinitum."
AS this charming stanza is not put in
quotes its authorship must be permit
ted to glorify the already glorifed re-
nown of the effulgent Roanoke Times.
And at the risk of further provoking
the commisseration of our Roanoke con-
temporary we venture to parodize it's
brilliant lines by saying:
The meanest vipers that there be
Are crushed by manly men, you see.
These snakes have manly men to crush
UNI
And so it goes ad infinitum.

Inc advent of winter is the golden
period OF the year for the weather pro-
phets. To forecast the winter weather
seems to give even greater satisfaction
than the predicting of an early or late
spring. The man who says we are going
to have an "old fashioned winter " he
VINO says the winter will be open, and
the wiseacres who pin their faith on corn
nusks, goose bones, flying birds and
furry animals are all in their element.
One thing is certain, which is, that when
spring begins to dawn everybody is ae-
reed that the winter was long enough

WILLING TO Be CROOKED.

We told the Roanoke Times what
'Stuartitis" would do for it. Since il
became afflicted with this new and De-
culiar disease it has continued on tho
downward path; its moral tone has
been shrinking, and its intellectual
force becoming more attenuated. How
short time ego was our Roanoke con-
temporary teaching the most admirable
political political morality and the
purest human sentiment. So marked
have been the changes in its teachings
aud preachings that its neighbor. the
Lychburh News, has actually dubbed it
"a self-indicttd d.mfraud."
Nobody but the Times is to blame for
winning from its Democratic neigbbor

been soothing at pure elections and hon.

cause of its disapproval of corrupt
Democratic methods in the Ninth Dis

Speaker and President.
Times-Dispatch.

hlcnmond IImes-Dlspatch.
The Washington Herald reports that
persons who have figured that Presi-
dent Taft is going to turn the cold
shoulder to Uncle Joe Cannon in the
coming session of Congress are to be
disappointed" The President had the
Speaker to luncheon with him at the
White House on Monday, and, it is said,
discussed with him the legislative pro-
gram at the approaching session of
Congress.
There is no reason that we can imao-
Inc why the President should turn the
cold shoulder to the Speaker. Without
Cannon's help the President would have
been able to accomplish very little at
the last session. 1t was a fair thing
for the Democrats, looking at the mat
ter from purely partisan point of view.
to load all the iniquities of the Republi-
can majority on the Speaker, but, as a
matter of fact, outrageous as the state
ment may appear, and vicious as the
Speaker has been in the exercise of his
authority, the Speaker is vet better
than his party. The old scapegoat has
come back after rather hard exper-
fence in the wilderness, no better than
he was and no worse.
1t is hoped that in the short time lett
to him he will not forget to pay some of |
the debts he owes to the members of
his own party, and before he leaves the
Speakers chair forever. on some con-
venient day, we should like to have him
call Champ Clark to the chair, and tax
ing the floor explain, with the records
ne must have in his possessions, the
;heapness and disloyalty of the crew

HEY MUST BE IDIOTS.

The Abingdon Virginian says that Mr..
stuart was present when the Demo-
cratic committee for the Ninth district
determined not to make contest. and
that he Joined in their conclusions. And
then, the Virginian says: "Many be-
heVe ne was honestly elected, but Mr.
Stuart is not a man given to small
things and would rather lose an cleo
ton than to appear to be a quibbler
over mere technicalities.
Just send those many who believe
that Stuart was honestly elected to an
idiot asylum, if you can find one. That
is the proper abiding place for all such
thinkers Honestly elected! If there
had been an election under honest cleo
ton laws and with the so-called pure
election law observed, Stuart would
have been defeated by not less than five
thousand votes. The Stuart campaign
was conducted on the most corrupt
lines that have ever been known in the
Ninth district.

Count Gasta and some Of his cronies

Blocking the Sidewalk.

Complaint is being made by residents
of the west side of the practice of hitch
ing horses to the fence on the lot west
of Gallagher warehouse. After rain
there are several bad 11udholes in the
street at that point and the residents
had a sidewalk constructed at their own
expense. When teams are hitched to
the fence it blocks up the dry sidewalk
and con1pels the pedestrians to walk
through the mud. The residents feel
that it is only thoughtlessness on the
part of those who hitch here and believe
that this hint will be sufficient to have
the practice discontinued.
