Capital Gossip
By HENRY AVERILL

Raleigh, May 24.-The governor.
State Treasurer Charles M. Johnson,
Attorney General Harry Mcmillan
and Secretary Of State Thad Eure
were on the point of departing for
Winston-Salem Tuesday, to attend
the Democratic women's meeting.
''The governor is going to intro
duce Senator Barley, Thad told a
pair of neWsmen who saw him in a
Capitol corridor.
"And what are you and the others
going to do?", queried one of the
item gatherers.
"Why, Yves going to entertain Liz
and May and the other good look
ing lady Democrats, Thad began,
but just at that juncturc Mrs. Eure
came into sight and 1.-The peoples
man" broke off quite suddenly.
"By the way, he said as the
Madame came up, ''have you met the
secretary of WARP"
Senator A. B. Corey, from the
Estate Of Pitt, thinks things are 60
ing fine down his way except that
farmers are planting too much to-
baccO
"They're putting out thirty or forty
per cent too much, he told your
correspondent while in Raleigh on
business, land it's going to hurt
prices"
Interest in the 1910 governors race
is simply non-eXistent in the great
rank and file of his section, Senator
Corey said, but the political-minded
gentry are talking things up quite
a. bit
"There's two factions-one's talk
ing Horton, the other Broughton", he
said. He indicated that those who are
now boosting the Lieutenant Cover
nor were, in general, for Hoey in
1886, while Broughton support is
coming from Grahamites and Nc
Donald supporters, in the main.

Another Mecklenburger, Represen-
tative Marvin Ritch was forced to go
back home Tuesday without having
been able to get everything he want
ed to off his chest.
Ritch has planned to see Nathan
Yelton, director of the Old Age as
sistance division of the Welfare De-
partment about the Mecklenburg sit
uation., lie contends that the county
has the easiest-going welfare board
in the state, pays the highest aver
age assistance and, therefore, is SIM
ply over-run with applicants.
81 can't even practice any law
on account of them coming to see
me-, he exploded "Old people from
all over the state have moved into
Mecklenburg to take advantage of
the situation
But Mr. Yelton, expected Tuesday,
didn't get to his office that day He
was detained somewhere in the
west"

TIPS 10
t1elpinq Seeds AIonq
THE first step toward insuril

THE first step toward insuring
l. termination of seeds is proper
planting. In exceptionally dry
weather, however, even properly
planted seeds may not terminate.
1t is advisable in such a case to
prepare the dry soil for the seed.
Water freely, as though you had
a crop growing. Allow the water to
soak in and when the soil has
good moisture content, begin your
planting. You must be careful,
of course, not to plant in wet,
muddy soil.
Excessive rainfall, on the other
hand, may make the soil so moist
as to cause rotting of planted
seeds.
While few vegetable seeds re-
quire special treatment to assist
termination, numerous flower
seeds can successfully be treated,
according to Gilbert Bentley, flow
er expert of the Ferry Seed Breed
ing Station.
He advises as follows: Nick
the seed coat of lupin, moonfow-
er and morning glory; remove the
rough outer coating of nasturtium,
momordica, castor bean and sand
verbena; soak Gamma, lily, job S
tear and sweet pea seeds in wa
ter for II hours before planting.

MARY ANN was named for her

MARY ANN was named for her
w grandmother, who at the age
of nine, made an elaborate sam
pier of embroidery stitches. Ev-
eryone thought it would be nice if
the modern Mary Ann could also
do a bit of hand work to be framed
and kept. We here report, thanks
to a series of rainy afternoons,
this was actually accomplished.
Mary AIMS mother started the
project with a rather large piece
of blue gingham; pair of en-
broidery hoops and some odds and
ends of bright six strand mercer
lied embroidery thread. Outlines
for flower designs we're made by
drawing around coins and the flow
ers were embroidered as shown
here. Stems were done in outline
stitch and leaves in groups of
straight stitches.
From the many attempts on that
piece of Bingham, two flower
groups had almost as much life
and charm as the modern Mary
Ann, age nine. These were neatly
