The United States has depended on the people OF
the ola World to help her finance enterprises which
TOOK large sums Of money, placing in the hands of
these countries large amounts of American securi-
ties, the interest on which plays such important

Now that this golden stream has been stopped
our people must look to their resources to fin
ance new enterprises. We must become more fru-
gal and thrifty This can only be done by each in

OF another army coming from Warsaw in

Warsaw army, which was very powerful.
completely turned the German position at
Mazur lakes and while extending its
operations over a wide front westward,
headed towards Allenstein. The German

Does Advertising Pay?

The other day 6 local merchant
elevated his chin, squared his shoul-
ders, assumed a belligerant attitude
and defantly told us that ''adver-
tising doesn't pay"
He is still alive, but let us consider
a minute:
A London baronet who ,nanufac-
lures pills has sold a part Of his real
estate for the tidy sum Of S3O,00O,-
900. He made it out Of the profits
of his business, and he built that
business up by advertising, often
spending as high as half million
dollars year IN printer ink.
John Wanamaker, the best known
and most successful merchant in
this country, made his millions by
advertising, and said so.
The great department stores of
the country are kept alive by adver-
Using, and are coming money by
more advertising.
You never hear Of a large mer-
camille house in this country that
docs not advertise, and advertise
heavily.
It politician wants to make him
self known to the dear people he
uses the most effective means-news-
paper publicity. That is advertis-
ing.
If a new son arrives at your house
you are keen to have it ''put in the
paper" where your friends will see
it, thereby advertising the fact that
you are walking on eggs.
If the editor called you thief in
a two line item and stuck it away in
the most obscure corner Of the pa
per, would you pass it by in the be-
lief that it would never be no
ticed?"
Never! You would consider your
self DETAINED before the entire com
munity, and would paw up the eartf
in your bellowings. You would be
only too quick to concede that every
line in the paper is read.
Yes, advertising certainly pays.
There is no ad so small, or insig
nificant, but some one is waiting
for it.
There are plenty Of people wh'
want what you have to sell, but the,
are weary of looking through hay
stack for a needle. They prefer t
find it in an advertisement.
And they will look in the loca
paper for the ad. :,
They will find someone s but viii
it be YOURS?

SCOTLAND NECK To
Have PEANUT FACTORY

Edwards & Company, M. Hoffman
& Brother, R. c. Josey & Company,
Burroughs-Pittman-Wheeler Com
pany and N. B. Josey have organ
lied and been Incorporated as the
American Spanish Peanut Company.
Mr.. N. B. Josey, the promoter of
this organization, stated that such
company has been in contemplation
for some time during the last six
months, and that it had reached the
point where the demand for a pea
nut cleaner could not be ignored on
sound business reasons.
The style of this corporation is
The American Spanish Peanut Com
pany, and four story brick build
ing situated between the electric
light plant and the Scotland Neck
Guany Company, just east Of the A.
G. L. passenger station, is now under
construction. The contractor is
Mr.. Burwell Riddick, of Suffolk,
Va, and the contract calls for the
completion of the building by No
vember 1st.
By the establishment of such
factory here the middle man in the
peanut market will be eliminated;
the cleaner will shell the peanuts
and sell them direct West and North.
This will enable the growers to get
q better price for their products by
selling them direct to home COM
pany.
The agitation of this project has
been rife for some time among the
mercantile firms of Scotland Neck
on account of the fact that with the
operation of such a big plant the
payroll would be large and the
merchants benefited thereby in
directly.
The employees of the peanut plant
will consist mostly Of women, very
few men employees being used in
shelling peanuts.

Reckless Automobile Speeding

A'few owners of automobiles are
learning that it does not pay to go
flying over the roads at break
neck speed. Men who used to speed
up lively now go along at a decent
gait. The more speed the more
power; the more power combined
with speed plays smash with the life
of machine. leaving out the dan
ger. The chief expense in ma
chine is in keeping it up. Repairs
come high. but if all will come down
to a moderate speed money will be
saved and the life of machine will
be prolonged. A man who persists
in driving fast would not think of
pushing a fine horse or any other
kind at the same speed He takes
care of his horse; he should take
of his automobile. Greensboro

MOTION PICTURES OF
The STATES FARM

Motion pictures of the State Farm
in Halifax county, the films showing
the thousands Of acres of growing
crops. the 300 convicts at work, the
thousands of pigeons, hundreds of
turkeys and hogs, the numerous cat
tie and mules, is the project H. B.
Warner, of Lexington, chairman Of
the board of directors of the States
prison. Mr.. Warner plans to have
these pictures at no cost to the State
and to have them exhibited through
out the country to show what North
Carolina land is doing. The chair
man estimated that the value of the
1900 acres Of the farm is worth at
least SIS an acre, but Colonel J. P.
Kerr made it $1OO. This would
place the value of the whole farm
at $72O,00O.
The farm this year has l 500 acres
in peanuts, 1000 acres in cotton, l.
500 acres in corn, several hundred
acres in sofa beans, several hundred
acres each in alfalfa, clover and
other cover crops. The crops are in
fine condition, Chairman Warner
said, and he grew enthusiastic as he
told Of standing on dyke and scan-
ming miles and miles of growing
corn over head high, cotton as fine
as ever grown, and peanuts that
promise to make a big profit. Then
he could see deer. thousands of
pigeons, hundreds of turkeys, hun
dreds Of hogs, turkeys and cows
and he conceived the idea of putting
them into motion picture. Raleigh
