Democratic Extravaganza.
Charlottesville Progress.

Charlottesville Progress.
Governor Swanson came into Office
and received the full four years benefits
of the tax reforms put into operation by
the Constitutional Convention which
yielded a revenue about S4,65O, 900
greater than that of the preceding four
years of Governor Montague; with sur
plus left by the Montague administra-
tion, the total increase exceeded SIS, OO0-
900. Governor Swanson went out of
Office with large deficit in the treasury,
and the succeeding administration of
Governor Mann was embarrassed to
such an extent that there is grave doubt
if there will be credit balance in the
treasury at the end of his term.
The State government was forced to
borrow, in the fall of 1910, the sum of
$3.50, 900 to meet its obligations. This
procedure was not authorized by law.
and had never been necessary before,
because in other administrations the
State expenditures of the State have
been kept within its income.
Governor Mann tell us in his state
ment that the Legislature of last year
raised 1929. 600 additional revenue; that
the new realty assessments available this
year, with natural increases from real
estate and other sources will produce
about $475, 900 more, making over $780,
600 additional revenue the State will re-
eive-which means the taxpayers will
put up this additional amount. They
pay the freight.-Richmond Journal.
This state of reckless extravaganza
will continue as long as the people con-
tinue to send representatives to the
Legislature who are more interested in
in creating new Judicial circuits, adding
to the number of State officers and in
creasing the official salaries, than they
are in reducing taxation and legislating
in the interest of the mass of people.
The voters have nobody to blame but
themselves for the threatened bank
ruptcy of the State treasury and for the
fact that Virginia has the most expen-
sive form of State government in the
South.

the entire Southern Methodist church.
The Baltimore Conference raises fol-
all purposes near $500, 900 every twelve
months.
In addition to the ministers, there will
be present several hundred laymen,
some of them bankers, lawyers and bus
mess men generally. The Conference

900, and church property valued at S.

History Repeats Itself.

1t makes no difference whether it is
millinery, skirts or germs-the present
season cannot claim anything new under
the sun. The deeper we dig into the
historical and traditional past, the more
we realize we are legatees of the old
days and races.
There was mercury, the winged mes
senger of the Gods-behold the little
cap-like bit of millinery and the wing
trimming that is named after the fleet
footed one, which adorns the puffs and
curls of the swift-fngered stenographer.
The ridiculous "hobble-skirt" would
for dynasties of time have hampered
the Chinese women's walking even if
their feet were not crippled. The ''hob-
ble'' is not only the native Chinese wo-
mans straight, narrow style Of skirt,
but the queer Egyptian and Assyrian
figures on stones unearthed by archaeol-
ogists are extremely hobbled.
Centuries ago Russia and the Euro
peau continent were swept by an cpl
demic of an influenza type that passed
into history. Now and then it crops out
4, again in limited areas. Over twenty
years ago the whole world was swept
by this same disease in an aggravated
form and generally named ia grippe 4"
Since then year by year we have known
and experimented with the grip germ in
all its forms and force. Much has been
learned about the proper treatment of
these cases, but the best specialists and
doctors have agreed that the standard
food-medicine which has done duty for
nearly forty years is still the sheet
anchor for all grippe victims. SCOTS
Emulsion relieves the cough, lessons
the aches and relieves the prostrating
weakness of this disease by thoroughly
nourishing every part of the body with
the oil food which the health of the body
requires when grippe germs are active
The Emulsion is especially useful in the
lung form of the present epidemic which
is the most severe and widespread we
have had for more than twenty years.

How Reading Pays.

Reading pays in dollars and cents,
and this is not low plane upon which
to make an appeal for more reading
among the farmers of the South. We
need nothing at this time more than
more money. Indeed, we must have
more money to run the farms on bust
ness basis; to educate our boys and girls;
to build good roads and schools, and
equip better farm homes. This money
must come from the farms, but to make
the farms yield more abundantly more
knowledge of farming is necessary.
The material and moral progress of a
people is in direct proportion to the
reading they do. On these facts we
make our appeal for more reading on
the farms. 1t pays.
The printing press alone has made
education of the masses possible Read
ing matter is now so cheap and SO easily
obtained by the poorest, that knowledge
and power to do better work is within
the reach of all in this Southland of
ours.
The need of the South today is know.
ledge of agriculture, a knowledge of
those useful facts and principles under
lying our chief occupation, which will
give greater power in forcing from the
soil the means for improving rural con-
ditions.
The man who reads thinks; and the
man who thinks has power Raleigh

sue of fifty thousand beautifully colored
lithOgraph invitations. The invitation

beautiful foliage, trees, fiower-beds and
velvety green lawn. Seated on the lawn

Plan a Rotation For Your -
Farm and Conditions.

Now is the time to plan crop rotations
for the farm and while changes may be
made, if necessary, it will be found
most satisfactory to lay out the fields
and plan the crop ratations so that there
will be system and method in the farm
ing operations. A lawyer or doctor
may spend weeks studying one case,
why should we not put our best thought
and considerable time in planning a ro-
tation of crops for the farm? Surely
the importance of the matter merits
our best efforts. Raleigh IN. c. Pro-

Nut Growing in the South.

The United States Bureau of Manu-
features has recently issued some very
interesting bulletins upon the possibili-
ties open in the direction of nut grow
ing along the South Atlantic Seaboard.
Formerly there was imported into this
country very large percentage of the
nuts consumed but this situation is
changing rapidly. More homegrown
nuts are being placed on the markets
each year and the history of oranges,
raisins, prunes and lemons bids fair to
be repeated in the case of nuts. In
1890 81, 600, 900 worth of oranges were
imported. In 1900 the figure had been
cut in half, and during the last fiscal
year the total did not exceed 500, 900.
Raisins imported in 1890 equaled the
oranges but last year their value was
less than $780, 600. Prunes, figuring in
the import statistics twenty years ago
al nearly 81 900, 900, have fallen to less
than $50, 900. while lemons during the
same period have lost position to the
tune of many hundreds of thousands of
dollars. This decrease is due in each
case chiefly to increased home produc-
ton.
Peanuts, chestnuts, hickory nuts,
walnuts and in the southern portion of
the coastal plain pecans offer a very in
viting field for the prospective grower.
The thing principally needed is that the
owners of the trees cease to look upon
the yield as something of no value.
Commercial profits from nut-growing
requires that attention be given to the
trees at various times throughout the
year and that the gathering be conduct
ed on common sense principles rather
, than at hap-hazard. A generation ago
none of the fruits just mentioned were
considered adapted to cultivation in the
United States, but the increase evil
denced by the statistics just quoted
speaks for itself. A similar increase
in the cultivation of nuts during the
next decade is far from unlikely.
