Amsterdam, Oct. 9.-Germany
and Austria have agreed to make
another peace offer on the basis
of "no territory aggrandizement
and the surrender Of Belgium, as
well as the giving up Of France s
territories, with no indemnity de-
manded on either,'' according to
the Berlin Tages Zeitung publish
ed today.
The newspaper asserted that
made the announcement on
"good authority" though no de-
tails were given how the rumored
peace offers would be advanced.
Speculation is rife here that
Chancellor Michaelis might make
some sort Of peace announcement
today. His postponed speech IS
advertised as likely to outline
Germany's war aims.
A sensational session OF the

PREPARATIONS FOR
MASS MEETING THURS.
THE COMMITTEE APPOINTED LAST wEEK WITT DR.
READY TO MAKE Full REPORT WHEN
THE FARMERS GATHER
IT Is EXPECTED THE PLAN IS FEAsIgl F

Tobacco Market at Scotland
Neck, is an attractive heading.
and furthermore it seems a very
possible accomplishment if all
will work together to a common
end.
At the meeting held last week
to consider the proposition a COM
mittee was appointed to obtain
facts and figures in order to pre-
sent them at a meeting-mass
meeting-of citizens of the town
and also all - farmers &C 10
community, and it has been learn
ed that this committee headed by
Mr.. Sam A. Dunn, is now ready
to report.
From information gained from
an outside source it was stated
that in order to make a tobacco
market the success it should, and
could be, every man, whether he
be fnancier, merchant, or clerk,
as we'll as every farmer in the
area that the tobacco market
would serve, must work together
as one man in promoting the plan.
: There is nothing that will do
more to make this section than
for the farmers to turn their at
tention to large growth Of to-
bOcca during the next few years,
aud there is nothing that will
make Scotland Neck boom more
than having live, progressive,
tobacco market. and it IS because
OF this present opportunity to de
velop al around that this is now
being proposed but, and here
lies the rub, it must be with the
full determination Of all to take
part and work to a successful
issue.

SAD ENDING
OF A VETERAN

The finding of the body Of Mr..
ID, Lewis. near to the main road
about three miles from Rocky
Mount, will be felt by many old
residents Of Scotland Neck as
somewhat slur upon the south
ern charity that is SO proverblal,
since it is that Mr.. Lewis was not
only born in Scotland Neck, but
was also a Confederate veteran.
What makes the case so sad IS
the fact that this old man, and
also his wife, felt they were IN the
way, and they often expressed
the wish that God would take
them, as they were too poor to
live, and their children too poor
to keep them.
So it was with this expressed
wish uttered to Mr.. Il. u. WOrs-
ley, Of Rocky Mount, brother IN
law Of Mr.. R. J. Madry, that the
old man drifted out of Mr.. WOrs-
ley's store that night in July,
and feeling himself in the way,
and burden to others, lay HIM
self down alongside the road
where luxury and extravaganza
drives daily and starved himself
to death, rather than be load
upon his children who had SO lit
tie themselves.
Here lay the body for months
until it was found few days ago
the flesh having gone to the vul-
lures Of the air, and only the
bones and rags Of clothing re-
named to tell Of a human being
VINO once had been an honored
soldier fighting for the principles
Of the South.

A BIG RYE CROP ASKED FOR.

The country is asked to put out an
acreage of rye for seed grain that
would promise a yield of over 83,-
100000 bushels. The acreages asked
in the South are: Virginia, Is per
cent more than last year; North Car
DINA, % per cent less than in 1917;
South Carolina, 488 per cent in
crease; Kentucky, no increase; Tenn
essee. 81 per cent increase; Alabama,
100 per cent increase; Mississippi is
not asked to grow any rye for grain;
Louisiana and Arkansas are asked for
no increase. In the case Of rye some
large percentage increases are asked
for. but the acreage is very reasona-
BILE. While Tennessee is asked to
grow 81 per cent more of rye for
grain in 1918 than in 1917, this calls
for only $4,000 acres of the crop, or
not much more than 500 acres to the
county. South Carolina is asked to
grow GA per cent more rye than last
year, but this would be only $4,000
acres. The surplus rye produced will
1nd a ready market in Europe, where
the people use a great deal of it in
their bread.
The increased amount of rye can
be grown by increasing the acreage
and improving the yield per acre.
The yield per acre can be increased
by working light coat of manure
into the land as it is being prepared
or by top dressing it during fall and
winter. Lands needing phosphate
should have a moderate application
of acid phosphate this fall and an
application of nitrate of soda or sui
plate of ammonia when growth starts
in the spring. provided these nitro
genous fertilizers can be bought at a
reasonable price when needed. R..

stomach will disappear. If it>-does
not, take one of Chamberlain's Tab

meats are most likely to cause sour

cut them out.
