College and the State Department of Agriculture Three times these Institution have been combined and three timu at the Instance of the college they have been separated and given Independent work. In lill the Legislature appointed a Joint committee, of which" Idea tenant Governor Newlaod waa chairman, to examine into the work of the depart ment to ee If there wm any conflict y won n ana roe college, xney re 1 ported that consolidation of the two twas not desirable, but introduced a kill for eo-operatlon by which dupll- eation of work would be avoided. This act has been complied with and ev erything is working harmoniously. They also recommended that the de partment be allowed to erect a new building on the present site. To have the headquarters offices of the department force convenient to the other departments of State is cer tainly desirable. If a person wishes to see the commissioner or any head of a division upon matters of business, he comes to the city and In a short time transacts his business and is able to return in a few hours. The book keeper of the department several times each month has to make depos its with the Treasurer of the Bute, where all the funds of the department are kept These deposits sometimes Dragging Around From Constipation? Take a WtnegUssfnl of Tollo Water and Feel Fine la Half an Hoar. That tired, nervous feeling come from constipation. Decayed food in the bowels is poisoning the system, spoiling the complexion, making pkn pies, blotches, bad breath and bilious ness. Tollo Water gives quick and gentle relief a third of a tumblerful in a glass of plain water before breakfast will clear out the decayed waste in the stomach and bowels in thirty min utes and make you feel fine for the rest of the day. An occasional glass before breakfast will keep the bowels regular and the liver active. Tou will never be troubled with foul breath and pimply, blotchy skin if you will keep the system clean. Get a IB-cent bottle from any drug store, start taking it in the morning and take it regularly for a few days until the system has been thoroughly cleaned. After that an occasional wtneglaasful will keep ytior bowels regular, your skip clear and your liv er working fine. R. R.

It is impossible for the same person to be a professor in the agricultural college and" a proficient head of a di vision in the work of the department If a man came to Raleigh to con sult about his animals or his crops, the professor could not stop his class to confer with him, and he certainly could not return on the train with him if it was where attention was re quired Immediately. This must be evident to anyone who will give the matter attention. Bo there can' be no saving in requiring the department force to be carried out to the college, but each must have a full corps of comnetent nersons to conduct Its af 'fairs. A good man's full time is more valuable than the half time of two men not fully equipped for the work. Some seem to Intimate that such a thing as a farmer desiring to have a respectable building In the heart ot the city is presumptuous, but when we consider that four-flfths of the people of the State are farmers and that they are producing almost enough food for the State, it is natural that they should think that they are equal In respectability to any of the branches of the government and entitled to ade quate quarters in which to conduct their work.

When 3 1-3 per cent nickel is added to steel it gives it almost 6 times the resistance, to fatigue. This is caused by the minute orystaline structure, which is far more pronounced than in the Carbon Steels, this is the chief cause of the toughness that Nickel-Steel posuesses. When steel yields to fatigue, the damage starts by opening a crack of microscopic proportions thru the plane of cleavage. This crack grows until It Is visible to the naked eye. after which the damage Increases with great rapidity. Now this de velopment is much more slow with Nickel Steels than with good carbon Heels. This Is the reason that all armour plate and REPUBLIC TRUCKS are made of S 1-1 per cent Nickel-Steel. Nickel-Steel la known the world over for its strength and re sistance to fatigue. Our factory is the largest of its kind in the world and now has a capacity of TO trucks a day and all of these are al ways sold. This Is the reason that our trucks can be sold at a lower price than those of worthy competitors. For Further Particulars See, Phone, Wire or Write N. J.
