A. c. |. ASK FOR
our LOCAL EXHIBITS

The industrial agent Of the Atlantic
Coast Line Railway writes the secre-
tary of the local Board Of Trade ask
ing whether he could get together an
exhibit the products Of the territory
to be placed in the Agricultural Car
Of the A. G. l.. which will shortly
leave on it's trip through the country,
and especially the west.
Mr.. Smith would therefore be glad if
the farmers of this section would get
together exhibits that would make a
creditable showing Of our production
and advise the Secretary Of the Board
Of Trade that they will do so, in which
case he will advise with the demonstra
tion agent as to the best way to make
this exhibit
This matter requires quick action
and as it is an opportunity to shov
the rest Of the world the fertility O
the county it should be embraced an
very attractive exhibit placed in tn

passed permitting the state, counties
and towns to appropriate money for
the purpose Of advertising themselves.
He stated in his letter that Moore
county alone would receive this year
at least $4,000 more in taxes from
new settlers in that county as a result
of advertising that had been done
through the Sand-Hill Board Of Trade.
Mr. Butler gave it as his opinion that
any county could we'll afford to spend
from $1,000 to $4,000 in advertising g
its resources as shown in the results

ATTEND WOOD PROPERTY
sale NEXT FRIDAY

The engineers Of the Atlantic Coast
Realty Company have been all week
clearing up the Wood property and
putting it into good shape for the sale
that takes place Friday next at 10:30
A. M, rain or shine.
This sale represents one Of the best
boosters that has struck Scotland
Neck for some time, SO that if you
are not going to buy any Of the busi-
ness or residence lots you should at
least show your interest in the town
to attend this sale, for there is not
person in the vicinity that is not in
terested in some way or other in the ad-
vancement Of the town, and the sale
Of this property, with the probable
building possibility it affords, is GER
tainly town boost that we have sc
long needed.
A slow man, the Indifferent man, is
not one to make things hum, either fo1
himself, or his neighbor, but you al
ways notice how very pleased he is
that the other fellow does it.
Be the other fellow.

the south, with Virginia, and states
north, through Scotland Neck. Look
at the map and determine this for
yourselves. It is the logical route Of
travel as soon as roads are built across
the river to connect with other good
roads already waiting this connection.
The adjoining counties Of Bertie and
Northampton are heartily in favor o.
the proposed bridge, and will agree up
on the bridge being built, either by
township bond issue, or private sub
scription, which goes to show that
our neighbors are willing and anxious
to be closely connected with Scotland

The Commonwealth has looked at the

NEW SOURCES OF TAXATION.

Washington. - Administration sug-
gestions as to possible new sources Of
taxation through which to raise ap-
proximately one-half of the estimated
cost of the first year of the war, or
81, SO7, 25O, 900, were submitted by Sec
rotary McAdoo. The other half of the
cost is to be provided by $4,000, 0OO, 900
Of the bonds authorized by the war
revenue bill.
Outstanding in the suggestions are
greatly increased income and excess
profit tax rates, taxing Of many i'm
portant articles now admitted free,
and stamp, liquor, amusement, sugar,
coffee, tobacco, soft drinks, freight
and passenger transportation receipts
and automobile taxes.
Probably the most ~far-reaching pro
posal concern income taxes. The Sec
rotary estimates that so per cent in
crease on both individuals and corpor-
atoms for 1916, collectable next June,
would yield $1C5,OOO 900 additional.
For 1917 he points out that to lower
income tax exemption from $4,000 to
81, 500 for unmarried persons, from $4,-
300 to $4,000 for married persons,
would produce $4,000, 900.
