The Farmers Union of North Car
DINA with policy outlined in the Ma
tional Constitution, seems to be 60
ing into business on it's own account.
DR.. H. Q. Alexander left last night
fer Raleigh to meet with three COM
mittees there to-day, the Executive
Committee, the Educational Commit
tee and the Legislative Committee.
The former body will tomorrow
close a contract with some of the
leading guano houses for fertilizer
for union members this spring, the
contract probably aggregating be-
tween 100000 and 100000.
The Legislative Committee will
open permanent headquarters in Ra-
leigh for several weeks to urge legis-
lation along some lines which have
been agreed upon by the State or
gan1zation. 1t is hardly known what
are the measures sought, but the
principal act of legislation desired is
along the line of better educational
facilities on the farms.
This is the first season the Farm
ers' Union has gone into the field on
its own account to purchase fertil-
izers for the use of it's members. This
enterprise was tested last fall when
the demand for guano was not SO
large except in the grain counties and
100000 worth of various brands
were purchased and used by those
afiliated with the Union. DR.. Alex
ander states that 80 per cent of this
entire amount was in cash, although
those who desired had the privilege
OF getting time business. It is be-
i1eVed that the same proportion of
cash will be available this spring for
the fertilizers purchased as the farm
ers are in good condition throughout
the State. and for the further reason
that the cash prize is so much
more advantageous to both buyer and
seller.
The Executive Committee in SEES
sion in Greensboro a few DAYS ago
ran over this matter of fertilizer con-
tracts with representatives of all the
leading houses, the competition being
exceedingly acute between the differ
emit firms. It was decided to alIow
the committee few days to look in
70 the comparative bids for the con-
tract and await meeting in Raleigh
tomorrow before awarding it. DIR.
Alexander goes to the capital civ
particularly on this mission.
The fertilizers bought will he
shipped by the house from which If
is secured to basic distributing points
throughout the State, from which
places the Union members who have
associated themselves for this deal
VIII get their proportionate parts If
is understood that large number of
Mecklenburg farmers have given Tn
the committee their contracts be-
cause the commodity can be purchas-
ed much cheaper than they have been
getting it IN the past from regular
dealers.
President Alexander states further
tnat the State Business Agent of the
Union Is building up a fine business
along other lines in the way of mr.
CHASING various goods for farmers of
the State. 1t is indicated that tha
time is approaching when the farm
ers will turn over to the business de-
partment of their organization q
large proportion of their contracts
Tor wares needed because of the hen
ef1ts Of cheaper prices.

ON FRIDAY THE

SOL CAIN e. co. CELEBRATED
18TH BIRTHDAY YESTERDAY
UNDER INTERESTING AND Pc.
CULIAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

"On Friday, the thirteenth" just
thirteen years ago yesterday, which, as
an odd coincidence was also Friday
and the thirteenth, Sol Calm & Co
made its first bow to the Pensacola
public, locating on the corner which ii
presently occupies, a corner which
was widely conceded to be an unusual
ly unlucky corner, too.
1t was under these rather uncanny
circumstances that the big Pure Food
Store commenced it's dealings with the
people, and after IS years of success
full business, the ''un1ucky 10" idea
has been dealt a rather telling death
blow as far as Sol Calm and his people
are concerned.
Yesterday congratulations were In
order, for it was the birthday of the
popular store, and a birthday under
very peculiar and interesting circum'
stances.
And after Is years had elapsed,
there We're many friends who were de
lighted to express these same con.
gratulations.

WILLIE
MU[CHAEY HAS
JOINED Church
RENOUNCES THE TURF AND BE-
COMES A MEMBER OF THE
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.

DR.. Buchholz, the evangelist, last
night spoke to large number Of in.
terested listeners at the First Baptist
church on 'The Knell of a Lost Soul"
He drew the picture wildly of a soul
cut off from God, with the recollection
OF lost opportunities.
christianity" he said, SIS not a
mere uniform, but permanent prln-
ciple. A test of a soldier IS not the
parade ground but the battle. There
is a mere imitation of Christianity.
Moral virtues may be like apples tel
on an oak. They do not make an oak
Feeling or excitement may be mis-
taken for conversion and lead to mere
imitation without the root of the ma.
ter within. Christ must be the con-
trolling principle of the true Christian.
None Of his, None of his. is the
knell Of the lost and scheduled SOUL
Jockey Converted.
At the conclusion of the service,
Willie Mulcahey, a jockey known to
all turfmen from New York to Tampa,
went forward and united with the
church, signifying his intention to re-
nounce the turf. He has found po-
sition with the l. & N.
On Friday afternoon DR.. Buchholz
spoke to a good number of local and
tourist Christians who are attending
from the subject, How to Get Right
With Cod
His central thought was illustrated
by the case of the negro who owned
fourteen acres in the midst of the
famous Biltmore estate. All visitors
had to have tickets before they could
enter whilst the negro could go and
come at will. Why? Because he
would not sci lout and turn over his
possessions to Vanderbilt. So the sim
ner who retains one secret chamber or
sin in his life farbors evil which can
come and go at will and finally ruin
the whole, and not until he gives pos
session to God and sin goes out is
there safety and acceptance with God.
Sin can only go out as Christ comes
in. Impure thoughts cannot be driven
out except by letting other good
thoughts come in. Impure air in a
flask cannot be pumped out, but pour
in water and it will be expelled at
once. This was the way to get right
with Goblet the best In and the
worst will go.
Today's Services.
Today at $3.50 a service for school
children will be held and speciar
music and sermon for them will be
given. Some tourist children here
from the north will sing.
Saturday night the subject will be
"The Coming Crisis" This perhaps
refers to the coming critical hours of
human destiny when the soul must
face eternal questions.
On Sunday there will be two SER
vices-at eleven and seven-thirty-
and DR.. Buchholz will speak to hun
dreds of Pensacola people and visitors
from dozens of states. It is good
place to see the winter tourists, and
many Of them are steady church-eoers
At the Sunday school hour Sunday
morning there will be special and IN
teresting services.
The meetings will continue next
week and the ordinance of baptism
according to immersion will be admin
istered during the time.

in vertical position to the binder attach
ment by means of chains and gathering arms.
Latterly various improvements and modifica-
lions of the design have been made and new
inventions along the same line have been in
troduced In some Of the machines the binder
is in almost horizontal position instead of
vertical.
Naturally, badly tangled fields make the
progress of corn harvester somewhat slow,
but it is remarkable with what precision the
machine will right the stalks. Owing to the
great variation in the height of the corn, even
in the same field, the binding attachments are
given great range of operation and in some
machines they are placed as high as 80
inches. The machines weigh from 1 400 to
1900 pounds each and cost on an average,
$125. The average number of acres cut per
day by such a corn binder is upward of eight
and the total cost per acre of harvesting the
corn by this method following for cost of ma
chine, wages Of driver, outlay for Irvine, etc.
averages about $3.50. Corn shockers cost
about as much as corn binders and weigh ap-
proximately the same These are the ideal
machines for owners Of small farms who do
most of their own work. A man with three
horses and corn shocker can cut about five
acres of corn per day at total expense of
$1.06 per acre as against $3.50 per acre with
the machine previously described.
The fundamental features of the corn
shocker are the circular rotating cutters
which cut the corn as the machine advances
and the circular rotating table upon which the
corn is collected vertically to form a shock.
loading device for handling the shocks adds
greatly to the efficiency of the modern ap-
proved type of machines Corn pickers, ma
chimes which remove the ears from the stalks
(Which latter are left in the field) cost $3.50
each and are operated at an expense of 1Sl
per acre. Combined huskers and shredders
are the latest additions to corn handling ma
chinery and on uptodate farms these are in
many instances operated by gasoline engines

leguminous crops the application of manure,
etc. In not few instances corn farms have
been rendered more profitable by rearranging
the fields in order to make them more uniform as
regards moisture and soil fertility. Soil wash
ing, that is, the washing away of the surface
soil-one Of the bugbears of corn growing-is
being prevented by systematic means such as
were almost unheard of few years ago.
The big problem of fertilizers Is which
touches the very heart of the corn-growing
industry and the experts in and out of the
government service have prepared very ex-
plicit directions for enabling the corn grower
to add to his soil nitrogen or whatever other
ingredients most needed to produce the
longedfor prize of corn. It has been
found upon investigation that many farmers
have had very different ideas as to how corn
should be planted and cultivated but at the
same time it has been discovered that no
hard and fast rules can be laid down as ap-
plicable to the whole country. The corn
grower who is cultivating deep soil in Sec
ton where there is prolonged dry weather will
obviously have to proceed on different the
DRY from the man whose land is low and wet
The point that is being driven home is that
each farmer must study his own particular
needs. 1
