The Henderson Gold Leaf

We are glad to note that the
enterprlsing Henderson Cole
Leaf IS going to give to Hender
son what it has long needed and
demanded: a daily paper Editor
Way announces that the daily
will be published at least until
Christmas, longer publication
being contingent upon moral and
financial support.
The proposition is strictly up
to Henderson. Even a weekly
newspaper is a far more expen-
slve proposition to manage than
the average layman realizes and
a daily newspaper is much more
than proportionally costly.
A live newspaper is the great
est asset town can have. it pro-
vides the very best kind of pub
licity. Henderson is to be CON
graduated upon Gold Leaf enter
prise and its citizens should do
everything in their power to
make the Gold Leafs leap from
the Semi-weekly to: the +. daily
class a permanent one.

Some Modern Advertising

The Watkins Hardware Com
pany have adopted a novel, if
not unique, plan of advertising to
be worked through the month of
September There are twenty
SIX sales days in the month and
for each of these days they have
selected one of the churches of
Vance county as a participant in
their profits of that day, and
will make that church a benefi-
clary to the amount of five per
cent on their cash and charge
sales of the day. Beginning TO-
day the first church to participate
will be New Sandy Creek. and
for the other days of the week
as follows: Wednesday, Liberty;
Thursday, Carey's Chapel; Fri
day, Poplar Creek; Saturday. !
Cokesbury. The churches of the
county will greatly appreciate
this courtesy and help and the
plan will doubtless prove a great
trade getter for the enterprising

Germany's Program

The German program goes on
as relentlesSly as fate; but fate
perhaps has a schedule, where
as the Germans have now only a
program. 1t is a program about
which there has been no secrecy
as to its general details, at least.
and a program upon which the
work of the most skilled minds
in the empire have worked, with
the expenditure of millions and
millions of money, these many
years past. 1t was considered
as quite certain that der Tag"
would come; it was equally GER
tain what the method of proce-
dure would be when the day ar
rived.
There was a schedule, too; but
it has been destroyed by what ap-

takes and miscalculations. Did

The Agricultural Outlook and The
European War

An interesting communication
from Henry W. Wood, of the
firm of T. W. Wood & Sons,
seedsmen, of Richmond, Va. has
been received by this office.
Mr.. Wood has recently return
ed from Europe where he has
studied at first hand the situa-
ton there and its bearing upon
Roanoke Rapids herald. [volume] (Roanoke Rapids, N.C.) 1914-192?, 1914-09-04
American farmers.

American farmers.
He says: THE indications are
that the present European war
will be quickly over. The good
roads throughout Europe, i'm
proved methods Of transportation
enabling the rapid massing and
concentrating of troops, together
with the wonderful increase in
the effectiveness of the methods
of warfare, all indicate that de.
cisive action on either side is
likely to be followed by power
full peacemaking efforts which
will be brought to bear by practi-
cally all the people Of Europe
and which are likely to be effec-
tive, particularly considering the
financial condition of most of
the European powers.
With peace declared, we are
likely to witness a wonderful
degree of prosperity, not only on
account of the large amount
of money which is being put into
circulation by the different
powers of Europe, but because
it will release enormous amounts
of capital which are now locked
up and which will seek invest
ment and encourage enterprise
IN every possible way.
Mr.. Wood follows a line of
reasoning quite different from
most OF the other prognosticators.
He says the war will unquestion-
ably end before the time for the
next harvest arrives, that large
gram and food crops will be
planted all over Europe to provide
against possible continuance
)t the war. He therefore expects
to see an enormous grain and
food crop realized with a great
Y diminished demand and recon-
nends the planting of cotton
and tobacco.
We do not follow him in these
deductions and certainly think
hat both tobacco and cotton
,rops should be heavily curtailed
n the south next year. Mr..
Wood 5 recommendation that
he southern farmers take up
he raising of cattle and horses
sound one as is also his re-
concentration to farmers every
1here to tertilize their land by
oWlnd crimson clover and SINH
ar crops In lieu of heavy puchas-
r of fertilizer.
We do not believe that farmers
no are able to hold their cotton
ill lose anything by the Pan
.uropean conflict. Cotton will
OF bring this year the high i
rices that have been prevailing {
)r the past few years, but if it
properly marketed a fair {
rice will be realized for the $
ak of the crop. The southern
lrmers have been diligent stu !
ents of business methods and q
for the past few years a
I'd there is very little likelihood
lat the markets are going to be a
)oded with cotton offered at t
~ price in the early .part of f
Ie season.

active ally, but was to be at
least the "subteranean channel
of outside communication.
Germany apparently counted
rather strongly upon the neutral
ity of England. This was a pc
litical miscalculation, in 50 far
as it may have been miscalcula-
ton. That may be set down
tentatively, as mistake No. |.
How much Germany banked
on the Italian alliance is probe
matical. lnasmuch as she
doubtless included, to some ex-
tent, dependence upon assis-
lance from Italy, the indications
are, so far that was mistake
No. >.
How much did Germany count
on the easy compliance of Bel
GUM with her demand for thor
oughfare in the little kingdom?
Was the formidable resistance
put up by these brave people, in
furlated at the violation of their
fatherland put down in any cal
culatlons in advance of the
event? 1t seems certain that
Germany is far behind its sched-
ule; and If it is, the bottom rea-
son must be the defense of the
Belglans, their men, their forti-
ticationS and their armament. If
this was a miScalculation, it
must have proved to be the most
terrible in the lot
The armies of Austria, it is to
be assumed, were counted upon
for a quick and easy victory over
those of little Servia, whereas
such information as com e S
through indicates that Austria is
little Roadway, and sus-
talnIng many reVerSes. This is

No. 5.

hat Japan would be lined up

whom she was a few years since

ult in the way opposite to that
n which they did result. Some
+ them, perhaps most of them,
osslbly all of them, were un-
allowed for in the
trategy framed through all
1ese years in Berlin. But in
lew OF the remote possibility,
all these matters breaking" {
5 they have done, it must have
cen desperation, or an obsession
pproaching madness, that ac- 5
lated Germany in casting the
ltal die.
SO far one calculation has held.
