Bermuda Grass.

Sam Campbell, who has charge of
the court house lawn is to try some
Bermuda grass seed on it, given him
by George Strobel who states that
this grass is fine for lawns, that it
will kill all other growth, dandelions,
etc. 1t must even be kept away from
trees. Nothing else can grow where
it is, he says. Even hogs can't root
it up. That it spreads over the ground
rapidly and makes an ideal lawn.
The only question is of its becoming
acclimated.

BUY FOOD SUPPLIES CHEAPER.

"The telephone and. delivery have
for some years played a big part in the
city housewives life," writes Mrs. E.
Rhinehart in the current issue of Farm
and Fireside, the national farm paper
published in Springfield, Ohio. But
the old market basket is coming back"
This part of the article tells how to
make the market money buy more: "I
speak for a lot of city consumers when
l say that by doing our W selecting
in the stores and markets we can buy
fal more intelligently and satisfac-
torily than by using the telephone.
by marketing in person we can
soon know when the produce arrives
in market, and can judge it's quality.
There are different stores and stalls
where the managers specialize in GER
tain things which are superior to the
same things secured elsewhere.
There are frequently special oppor-
tunities when merchants are over
stocked with some particular kinds of
produce.
Different grocers have told me that
the cos of delivering each order is
from eight to ten cents.
1.-THE market basket plan of buying
is the cash plan as 4 rule and the cash
buyer gets many a discount over the
telephone, month:y-bm system of buy
ing.
Another material advantage I find
is in buying in large lots. Different
g1ocers have said TO me, I would rath-
er give you a discount for large orders
than be rushed to death with little
dribs to put up and deliver Ever
since I have kept house I have bought
in hundred-pound lots such articles as
soap, sugar, -four, salt, lard in fifty
pound cans, dried fruit and vegetables
by the crate or barrel whenever it is
safe to do so.
by this plant need buy only twice
a year the staple goods that will keep,
and I gain materially by escaping
short weights. I buy eggs when cheap
and keep them in water glass; and in
various other ways take advantage of
opportunities that l could not were /
buying by telephone.
My calculations show that / save at
least ten to twelve dollars on each
hundred dollars worth of goods
bought by my plan of buying, not
counting the advantages secured in
better weights"

Republicans are Welcome to Examine
State Books-They Will Find Mon

- SASOAS ~
State Books-They Will Find Mon
ey Expended as Directed by
Law With Economy.
The reason that the people of North
Carolina have confidence in the DEM
ocratic party is that it is a party of
honesty. It Is a party which has no
devious ways and its record Is a record
OF service in the interests of the peo-
pie. 1t is uponMervice rendered that
the Democracy goes to the people and
it is upon performance that it is en-
titled to a continuance In power.
One of the matters upon which the
Republican conference held in this
city on Wednesday dwelt was the rails
ing of money with which to employ
experts to take a look at the books"
OF the affairs of the State as managed
by Democratic officials. Upon that
issue the Democracy of North. Carroll
ma courts an investigation, for it has
put those into office who stand high
because of their integrity.
That record of the Democratic party.
is going to be continued. No matter
to whom go the nominations of the
Democratic party in 1916 it can be
said with the fullest confidence that
the men who will be given the party
standard will be men of the highest
character. And there will be no man
on the ticket but who hasythe reputa-
ton for honesty and fair dealing.
So the Republicans are welcome,
most heartily welcome to make any
investigation of the books of Demo
cratic officials. 1t will be found that
the money of the State has been ex-
pended as directed by law, that there
are clean hands which are to be eX-
hibited. The Republicans will have
their plans for their trouble when they
make an investigation seeking to find
that there has been crookedness in the
official affairs of the State under DEM
ocratic Observation-Disclosures and OBJ
server.
