PLAN RALEIGH MONUMENT
Sir Walter Raleigh Committee Start
Campaign For Funds For Memo
rial to Raleiah.

Raleigh.-Each of the original thir-
teen colonies Of the American Union,
every school child in North Carolina,
every state and city of the Union and
the District of Columbia will be called
upon to contribute toward the fund
that is now being raised for the cree
ton of monument in Raleigh to
the memory of Sir Walter Raleigh
if the plans Of the Sir Walter Raleigh
Monument Committee are carried out.
The decision to do this was reached
at the meeting recently of the commit
tee having in charge the raising of the
funds necessary. The following mem
bers of this committee were present
for the meeting: General Julian S.
Carr, chairman, of Durham; Joseph
G. Brown, Colonel Benehan Cameron,
A. B. Andrews, Jr., Alex. J. Field,
Frank Ward and w. j. Peele, all Of
Raleigh.
The meeting was one OF the first
that has been held by the committee
in long while, but the lapse of time
since the last coming together of these
men did not in any way lessen their
enthusiasm over the project, and they
are now more determined than ever
to succeed in the movement which
they have started.
The committee in session was of the
opinion that the best time for the I'm
yelling of the monument is on October
20, 1918, which is the ter-centennial
anniversary of the martyrdom of Sir
Walter Raleigh in England
Not only will the monument be a
memorial to Sir Walter Raleigh, but
if the plans are carried out, it will
likewise commemorate the event of
the Century of Peace between all of
the English-speaking nations of the
world. This will be in 1915, and it is
planned that the cornerstone be laid
during that year, and SO inscribed as
to keep fresh in the minds of all who
look upon the great marble shaft the
long period of peace that has been
established
The committee passed a resolution
calling upon the state superintendent
of public instruction to request a do
nation for the monument fund from
every child in the public schools Of
the state on Arbor Day in 1914 An
other resolution that was passed calls
upon the city commissioners of Raj
eigh to petition the legislature for
permission to erect the monument on
Nash Square in Raleigh, and at such
a point in the square as will be decid-
ed upon by the committee. General
Julian S. Carr, Mr.. J. G. Brown and
Mr.. w. J. Peele were authorized to
select in each county of the state one
person to serve on the committee, and
to aid in the work in his particular
section.

the determination of the Chamber Of

ing of the year. J. D. Fletcher, tobac-
CO demonstration for Cumberland coun-
ty, met with the members, and there
was general discussion of the ques-
ton of growing and marketing tobac-
CO, with special references to Fayette-
vile and Cumberland county's future.

would be 100000 pounds of tobacco
grown in Cumberland this year.

Sanders Negro Submits.

Raleigh.-Worth Sanders, the negro
who SO narrowly escaped being lynch
ed and took refuge in Wake county
Jail and was subsequently transferred
to the States Prison, has made admis-
sions of guilt that make his conviction
much more certain, according to state
ment made by Sheriff Sears. He says
that Sanders told Jailor Jordan that he
was out at the Lynch place when Mrs.
Lynch was killed by Wilson and that
he helped him put the body in the
brush, but that he was too drunk to
have any clear recollection of just
what did happen. Sheriff Sears has
another prisoner in Jail, who occupied
the cell with Sanders, and says that
Sanders made much the same state
ment to him.

May Move Surry Court House,

Mount Airy.-That the county court

dicted by many citizens. In fact, there
is a movement on foot to bring about
this change. For many years there
has been a growing sentiment favor
ing this change, but only since the re-

ment crystallized into an active move.

Establish Training School.

Greensboro-A movement is on foot
here to get the County Commission
boys who get into the city courts of
Greensboro and High Point for minor
infractions of the law. The last Legis-
lature authorized the commissioners
to make an appropriation for such a
school. The idea is not to make of it
a reformatory, but real school. Boys
sent there will be educated and taught
useful occupations. It is believed that
the commissioners will undertake the
school,

Build Modern HOSPITAL.

Mount Airy.-A modern hospital is
one of the possibilities for this city in
the near future.
Mrs. B. A. Irwin, retired and
wealthy milliner, who left here sew
eral days ago to visit her son, a ply
stefan in New York City, informed her
friends that upon her return that she
would begin the erection of 3O-room
granite and modern hospital upon a
splendid site already purchased for
that purpose. The site consists Of
several acres of grove near the heart
Of the city and is an ideal location.

Easy to Organize Small Creamery

1t is easy enough to organize a
creamery and small plants pay when
well conducted. Organize stock
company of 30 farmers with shares
at $50 each or 40 farmers with shares
at $25 each. A plant may be equipped
for $1,000 and it should be located
on a railroad as near as possible to
the center of the stockholders COM
munity. A building 24xi0 with plat
form will be large enough, with a six
foot addition to cover the gasoline en-
zine. If each stockEolder starts in
nth five to ten cows, Jerseys or good
trades. he should produce from 100 to
20 pounds Of milk daily. This is an
economical proposition and will fur
aish the big creameries some opposi-
ion when the country is full of them

FAVORS PIT SILO OVER OTHERS
Phillips County Farmer Gives Inter.
eSting Figures to Show That SiIO
and Dair!ing is Money Maker For
the Eastern Colorado Dry Farmer.

We print below a letter written by
a. c. Cauble Of Phillips county ad-
dressed to the Holyoke State Herald
giving his experiences with the pit sio
The Gazette Editor is personally ac-
quainted with Mr.. Cauble and we know
him to be reliable conservative man,
who has made a success of dry farm
ing in Phillips county. His letter is
as follows:
Mr. Editor:-By your request l will
give you my experience with soft
my opinion of the silo so frequently
that some of your readers may be quite
familiar with it. | believe every far
mer should have a silo. l do not be-
lieve that every farmer should have
one of these expensive ones, such as
cement or those manufactured wood
stave silos, they are too expensive for
the average Phillips County farmer.
But the pit silo is in reach of all and
my experience with silage is, that it
keeps better in a pit silo than it does
in either wood stavc or cement
The pit silo is less apt to cause the
silage to spoil around the outside next
the wall. 1t being in the ground and
is not exposed to the heat or cold will
not absorb the moisture in the ensl-
age Us it would were it up above the
ground where the air could strike it.
Also in very cold weather the freez-
ing might be the cause of consider
able los of ensilage as well as stock,
as frozen ensilage is considered quite
dangerous when fed to stock.
Ensilage is one of the best feeds
when it is properly put up and keeps
well. but when not properly handled
as it is sometimes put in the silo dry
and not wet down as it should be, or

HOGS TODAY MONEY TOMORROW
The Hog Il Mortgage Litter


No industry has made the, average
farmer more ready, clear and quick
money than the american Hog" And
yet this animal, commonly termed the
aristocrat of the barn-yard and the
only idlcr of the farm. is very gener-
ally the most neglected creature on
the premises of the average farmer.
Perhaps the principal reason for this
is, that the hog is of no practical bene-
fit to a farmer so long as it is alive.
Unlike the horse that has to work for
its living, or the COW that supplies US
with milk, and cream and butter for
her keep, or the hen that lays eggs for
her board, and the sheep that supplies
us with wool from which our garments
are made. The hog adds nothing ma
terial to the farmer, and is of no real
value to him until he is dead He
then supplies many of the wants of the
civilized world; not only the hams,
bacon and lard so necessary to the
sustenance of life, but also illumina-
ting and lubricating oils, combs, brush
cs. and various kinds of ornaments
1t is claimed that our packers can now
utilize practically every element of the
hog profitably except the squeal. and
that too is being reproduced on the
phonograph.
Statiscians have estimated that
SOW having litter of six at time,
in ten generations will produce $780,
900 pigs.
If the average farmer will devote
more time and give closer attention
to the raising of hogs, select the very
best breeds of the most prolific type,
construct dipping vats. warm and ssit-
able sheds, observe the necessary san
itary requirments, and give the hog
the same attention and care that he
gives to his Jersey COW or his best
driving team, no product of the farm
will turn in as much ready cash to
lift the mortgage as the American
Hog"
Very valuable Information regarding
this industry can be obtained free of
charge, from Farmers Bulletins"

New Parcel Post Problem Has Arise,

New Parcel Post Problem Has Arisen
From the Omaha Bee:-Postal au-
thorities are puzzled as to the proper
solution of a problem connected with
the parcel post situation which has
been brought to their attention at
Grand Island A New York firm has
boon shipping packages to Grand Is
land in case lots by express, and there
reshipped it to smaller towns which
are not reached by the express COM
panies through the government parcel
post The express companies get the
long haul, apparently because it is
made at lower rate, but the govern
ment is compelled to carry the pack
ages on the shorter hauls and to de-
liver them by rural carrier, receiving
smaller sum for the service than the
express companies would charge
There seems to be no rule under which
the practice may be prohibited, yet the
government sustains the loss of the
long haul through the new rates of
the express companies.

Jest as at the start.
When for all your mothers cryin'

took you to keep;
When the lilacs was noddin'
Like thcy meant goodbye,
And the lazy moon was ploddin'
Through the fluffy sky.

Lonesome on the hill,
Started all that gray to creepin'
Through your hair, until
Silver covers all the shinin'

While the rosies still are pinin'-
Yes, we're gettin' old.
Little woman, do you wonder
Who'll be left alone
When God cuts the tie asundcr
We so long have known?
You or me-oh, little woman,
Some time it must come
When we'll smell the lilacs bloomin'
