GRAHAM, N. C., Jan. IG, 1910.
It was reported a week ago in the
press dispatches that tho '>oth Divis
ion' would arrive in the United
States about the first of February.
A late report says this Division will
not returq. now, and the date of its
return is not named. Alamance
people are very much interested in
these reports, as a large numbor of
Alamance boys are in tho 30tb.
It appears that influenza has
broken out anew in many places
throughout the State. The disease
is in milder form, however.
In Alamance at present there are,
according to reports, a large number
of cases. Burlington, Mebane and
the Northern and Southern parts ol
the county are the communities
affected.
Germany is now In the throes of
an internal revolution. Battles art
being fought and many are jelnjf
killed. She is reaping the b:tter
fruits of an attempt to dominate
snd destroy other (peoples and
wreck other governments.
The latest report is that only one
state is lacking yet to /complete
the ratification of the constitu
tional amendment making prohibi
tion nation-wide In »he Onited,

STATE REVENUE EXCEEDS EX
PANSES.
State Tax Commission Recommends
Full Value Assessment Ail Prop
erty for Local Revenue—All
State Taxes From
Other Sources.
Tho biennial report of tho Cor
poration Commission as H Slate
Tax Commission, which has just
been issued, in of particular inter
est at this time, when the Legis
lature is considering revision of
the tax system.
The report shows that I he State's
revenue the past two years ex
ceeded the State's expenditures
8370,000, tho increased revenue
coming principally from inherit
ance, income, and privilege taxes.
For the (list time the inheritance
tax takes an important place in
the State's revenue—the receipts
from this source the past two
years being 8072,000.
Income taxes increased to $109,-
000, and incomes listed in l!>18 (to
appear in 1919 receipts) are run
ning close to two hundred thous
and. Hut these incomes are en
tirely from salaries and fees.'
There is a prohibition in the State
Constitution of taxing the income
from property. If we are to tax
earned incomes, or salaries, why
not tax tho much greater incomes
from property, the Commission'
asks, and it advocates the sub
mission of a constitutional amend
ment to permit this. If such an
amendment wore adopted, the
Commission argues, the State
could secure enough revenue from
this source to take the place of
the property tax now levied by
the State to maintain its govern
ment and institutions, and thus
bring about segregation and leave
all the property tax to counties
and cities. The proposition is
supported also by tho Governor
and the Special Legislative Tax
Commissioner.
The Commission argues that by
submitting this amendment, which
if adopted would become effective
two years from now, the present
Leglature can inaugurate a real
assessment of all property al ac
tual value, to be-done in a thor
ough way during the next two
years, to bo adopted when com
pleted by the next Legislature, to
be used only for local tax pur
poses, and all tax rates to be scaled
down to (It the increased assess
ments before it is put into effect.
Tho State would then get all of
its revenue from income inherit
ance, privilege and franchise
taxes.
The Farmers' Educational View.
Tho Farmers' Open Forum.
Education is tho basis of all
progress.
Rural education sets the solid
standards of our citizenship and
our patriotism. It is here the
ideals of American government
find th'eir bulwark.
New and higher standards of
citizenship must be set up in our
rural schools to meet the test, of
tho new international ethic* that
herald a new dawn for all hu
manity.
Only as the rural citizen of the
future learns his true relationship
to industry as a whole, to his own
country, and to his fellowmeu in
other countries, can we hope for
the solid upbuilding of our rural
lifo which is the mainstay of our
civilization.

Greensboro Worker Tells
How Dreco Wiped Out
Stomach Trouble.
Gives State
ment.
Kveryone knows that to live
must have food. Food is the fuel
that keeps tho human furnace
buruing. Stop eating and the
tiros of life will soon die out. Is
it any wonder then that when the
system is r.ot being properly fed
a person becomes thin, pale, list
less, run down, and the day's
work bocomes a drugery. It iB
worse than useless 10 try to teinpt
the appetite with delicacies if tho
stomach is unable to digest the
food it receives.
Most bodily ills can be traced
to just this source. The stomach
is out of order and the other or
gans, tissues, and mu-cles are not
receiving the necessary food to
build up tlifi ravages of tho day.
Tho result is these organs, tissues
and muscles become weak, open
ing the door to kidney trouble,
constipation, rheumatism and a
host of distressing complaints.
These disorders can be helpfed
only by treating the cause, the
stomach.
"I have suffered 20 years with
pains in the limbs, and rheuma
tism," says Airs.' Frances Cox,
who is perhaps one of the most
generally known and best loved
ladies of Greensboro's Salvation
Army, in a signed statement just
made for publication.
"I couldn't even drink cold
water," she continues, "as it
would sour and come back up hot
as lire. All my troubles are very
much benefitted now because I
have taken that wonderful new
herbal medicine called Dreco.
"Dreco surely has done me lots
of good and I want three more
bottles."
Dreco, the medicine mentioned
by Mis. COX, is a compound of
the juices extracted from roots,
herbs and berries, nature's own
remedy for nature's ills. Hun
dreds of testimonials like the
above aro coming in, all stating
that Dreco seemed to go direct to
t!is> seat of the trouble and to wipe
out aches and pains.
If you are suffering why not go
or send at once for a bottle of
this wonderful medicine? Surely
it is worth a trial.
Dreco is sold by almost any
well stocked druggist aud may be
