—lt is learned that in many parts

wheat and oat crops are not promis

from the bitter cold weather in Janu
ary and the early part of this month
when the crops were unprotected by
snow.
—Last Monday again was one of
those rainy Mondays. A few weeks
ago in these columns it was stated
that some one had kept tub on the "
weather and that it had rained for
fourteen Mondays in succession. If
there was error in the statement at
the time, the statement is now in a
fur way to be completely verified.
Mr. M. R. Rives' Store Broken Into—
Thieves Caught.
Tuesday night, about the hour of
2 o'clock, the dry goods store of Mr.
M. R. Rives was broken into. Entry
was made by breaking a glass in the
back of the store and raising a latch.
When Mr. Rives entered his store
yesterday morning, he found goods
scattered over the floor and things in
general disorder. As near as could
be estimated at the time there was
missing between $75 and SIOO
worth of goods—shoes, hats, ribbons,
laces, coat suits, dress goods, etc.
The officers begun to look around
and they were not long in finding a
trail. One trail led to the home of
a negro named Jim Allen who lives
in the northern suburbs o£ Burling
ton. At his home was found a part
of the goods. He was secured with
a part 6f the goods, and being trap
ped he gave the whole matter uway.
His accomplice lives in Graham, one
Harrison Stevens, a white man, who
has had various troubles of one kind
and another in the past few years.
Allen related how the job had been
done -that they gathered their booty
into bags and carried it to the house
of Stevens and made a division.
Deputy Sheriff H. J. Stockard went
to the house of Stevens and searched
and there he found numerous articles
concealed, some of them hidden in
beds. On the way to Stevens' house
from the store a few articles bad
been dropped and these would have
told the tale as to him without the
negro's evidence. In the search of
Stevens' house evidence was de
veloped that pointed to him as hav
ing a hand in the breaking of Mr
Rives' store last Fall, Nearly all
the missed goods—about $75 .vorth
—were secured and Stevens and
Allen are safely locked up, awaiting
to be disposed of at March court.

Peace Contest Debate.
Cor .ol The Qleaner.
Elon Collegf, Feb 22.—0n last
evening at eight o'clock the an
nual inter-collegiate Peace Con
test, Elon wt& held in
the College Auditorium. The Au
ditorium was packed to the over
flowing, and the contestants were
cheered to the echo.
The following young men par
ticipated in the contest:
Henry Terris Floyd, Roanoke,
Ala.; John Layipond Crumpton,
Roxboro, N. C.; Havilah Babcock,
Appomattox, Va.; William Carson
King,Seagrove, N. C. The judges
were D. R Fonville, C. D. John
ston, aud Rev J. W. Harrell.
Mr. J. L. Crumpton won the
orator's medal, and was commis
sioned by President Harper to
represent the College in the inter
collegiate contest to be held in the
near future. Mr. W. C. King was
named as Mr. Crumptou's alter
nate.
HICKORY CHIPS.
The world still sits up and takes
notice when Uncle Sam has some
thing to say.
Germany is making many ex
pressions of regret at the stand
taken by the United States. If
Sam really becomes aroused
their regret will be well founded.
Mexico may live »o bless the
forbearance of the United States,
even if the present generation of
Mexican jingoes does not.
Mobilization of the German wo
men for war is no new thing, as
those who have read of Cwsar's
campaigns will recall.
A concert of nations may enable
the U. S A. to provi le an example
for "U. S. W," "W" standing for
"world."
A presidential communication
cannot always be expected to rival
in length some of the commen
taries on It.
Whenever the jjffuestion of
rendering treaties-rajviolable pre
sents itself, Belgium looms upas
t horrible example.
Germany is taxing war profits
.ip to 41 per cent. But American
■roflters from the war cannot be
•axed even tt per cut on an ex
y«ss above 8 per cent, without
raising a howl.
Possibly Lawson thought
ihfti-e was a leak because all the
Wall Street profits did not go i|ito
his bucket.
If they paint up an American
ship that way to win the privilege
of creeping into and out of Fal
mouth once a week, the Dove of
Peace will have resigned in favor
of the zebra. -
"Freedom of the seas is offer
ed"—for one striped ship, Wed
nesdays going west, Sundays ar
riving east.
Reports have It that the allies
tfill try to put an in King
Coustautine's "reign."

fire broke out in the oldest building,
which was destroyed. At the time

TILE DRAINING MEETS FAVOF
Wisconsin Highway Commission Out
lines Plan for Improvement of
v Wet Spots In Roads.
(By the WISCONSIN HIGHWAY COM
MISSION.)
Most of the springy places or slnlt
holes In ronils nre due to two causes:
Lack of drainage In the side ditches,
nnd second,,and probably the greater
cause, lack of drainage hcneatli the
surface. In other words, the under
ground water Hows so close to the
surface of tho roud that there is not
sulllclent hard crust to hold up the
travel, and the whole road surface
cuts through and becomes bottomless.
Deepening tho ditches will help, Inas
much as they will help got tho sur
face water off the road Into the
ditches, nnd will carry It away, if the
ditches are properly dug. But no mat
ter how deep the side ditches nre made
(within limits of safety to travel),
they will not catch any great part 6f
the underground water, as It flows
Just so far below the (surface wherever
the surface Is.
In the case of springy places on fluts
or near marshes, tho roud should .be
mixed as much as money permits, the
side ditches deepened and made with
nn even grade so that they discharge
to some outlet. Down the center of the
road, as deep as you can get It aud
still get an outlet, should be luld a ll|ie
of four or aix-lnch laud tile. Inverted
sod or burlap should be placed over the
tile Joints. The trench for this should
be dug with ordinary tiling tools to an
even grade. It Is much better If the
trench Is back-llUed with clean crushed
stone or clean Money gravel. These
things being done, you will be astound
ed at the Improvement In conditions
next spring nnd In all wet times. The
tile should be given a fall of about
three Inches In 100 feet. If It Is possible
to get It, the more the better, though It
will flow with a fall of as llttlo as ong
Inch In 100 feet, If well laid. If the
trench described above Is filled with
rock -or coarse gravel, results ure se
cured, but tile is much better.
The short spring holes, on lilils
usually, should bo treated' by opening
good ditches at each side so the: sur
face water flows off readily, and tH«n
In the shoulder about ten feet from the
center of the road should be laid a four
or shc-lnch tile at a df-pth of at least
three feet below the center of tho road.
This tile should be placed on th ■ edge
of tho road toward the side from which
the underground water comes (the side
of the road on which the laud Is high
est).
The trench Rhouliflie back-filled with
stone or gravel, and If this work Is >
well done so the tile runs freely, you
will be surprised to see the amount of
water It will discharge, and the Im
provement In the road during all wet
seasons. In exceptional cases, the tile
should be pluced on both side* of the
road, but usually a line of tile on the
high sldo will' Intercept tho under
ground flow nnd lower tho water.level
enough to save the road. Piling stone
in sink holes until tho bottom Is
reached will usually Improve condi
tions, but the expense of this method
of fixing n sink hole Is usually very
much greater than tiling It, and tho
results are not as good, because It does
not remove tho cause which produces
the bad spot, while tllo doe*.
Pour-Inch unglazed field tllo I* worth
from 3 to f> cents per foot; Fix-
Inch from 4% to 7 cents per foot; four-
Inch glfy.cd sewer pipe with bell Is
worth from fl to 10 cents per foot;
nix-Inch from 10 to 14 cents (for
foot. Prices vary with quality desired,
-kind of delivery and local profit. Your
local dealer can give you prices.
As for surface drainage, tho only
safe rule Is to grade the*road so tho
water will run promptly from the sur
face of the rood Into the ditches, and
to so grade the ditches that water will
not stand at any point, but flow rapid
ly along the ditches and nwny to some
natural outlet standing water (except
In some cases on marshes) Is evldcuce
of lack of care In making and main
taining the ditches, and a sink holo or
springy place Is an absolute Indication
that Ixitb sldo ditches and tllo under
drain are very badly needed.
Must Rebuild Bridges.
New York state Is facing the ticces
