We take the following article from the Raleigh Correspondent of the Durham Sub of May j47tb: "Rev. L. S. Maasey, of Oxford, N. C.,'was chosen lsst night by the commission appointed as editor of the Raleigh Christian Advocate, to suooeed Dr. T- N.

Mr. Massey, wbo is called to the editorship of the Advocate from the pastorate at Oxford, is one of the leading preachers in the Noyth?Garo Una Conference add has held important charges on account of bis ability as a preacher and a scholar. He has been stationed at Louisburg, Laurinburg, several other stations of equal importance, and at Oxford, where he now holds a charge. He is well known throughout the state and many in Raleigh will reeall the excellent misssiooary address deliv er*.d bv hiny here several-months age. He is one of-tbe al)lekt preaohers in Hie conference, a proiouna sctiolar - .. i. and a graduate of Trinity College. Present at the meeting last night at whien time Mr. Maseey was elected, were: Kev.

Smith, of Gateavllle, and Rev M. Bradaliaw, of Dnrham. This commission was appointed by the conferepfte for the purpose ot electing an editor of the Advocate in the case of a vacancy." Rev. Mr. Massey served four years as pastor of the Methodist Chnroh here, and has many friends here who are mor > than glad to learn of this eleotion as editor of the Christian Aivooate. it L_, Death*. -We take the following items from a correspondent of the Evening Times writing from Spring 17ops under date of Wednesday, /age lit: After nu illness of more than twe !? >? - v\. > ' . - ..RAN -- ? _ - *\ ANAGER " .weeks witb pneumonia, Mrs. John R. Weatheraby, the wife nfa prominent Franklin oounty farmer, who . lives near Spring Hope, died?laat night and will be buried at the fgpi.iJXburying grounds this afternoon. Mrs. Weatheraby was a member of the Baptist churob and a woman : who had many, friends throughout Nash and Franklin counties. Besides her husband she is survived by tlu following children: Messrs. Tliad, ltoberi, Talmage and Corbett Weatheraby, Mrs. L. F. Brantley, Mrs. I.elia Brantley, Misses Miuda ami Maggie Weatheraby, all 'of Franklin oounty, and Mr. Charles Weatheraby, of Nashville. She was so aunt of Mr. Spencer Weatheraby^ of Spring Hope. * Mrs. Ed. Hollands, of Franklin county, died yesterday afternoon after a week's illness. The remains i*cre buried this afternoon at the family burying grounds. Mrs. Holland is survived by her husband and several small children. She was a neice of Mr. SniHb Brantley, of Spring Hope. \ Baker^EgertonThe home of Mr; and Mrs. Fiank Nicholas Egerton became the scene of a brilliant social event on Tuesday t yening, the occasion being a reoepttion Driven to the vnuno nonnla nnm. o w o r?r w?prising (lie bridal party in the BakerEgerton nnptials. The parlors were bea'ttifullv decorated for the marriage in white and green which formed an ideal set'ing and background for the receiving party. Those present were; the bride, Miss Blanche Wilmot Egerton, and groom, Mr. George . Spencer Baker; and Miss Pattie Bet Davis with Mr. Arthur Person; Miss Maude Hicks with Mr. M. S. Davis; Mies Edna Watkms with'Mr. Ballard Egerton; Miss Grace Hall with Mr. Charles Edward Egerton; Miss Marion Baker with F. N. Egerton Jr.; Miss Kathleen Egerton with Mr. Edwin H. Malone; Miss Mary Stuart Egerton, the maid of honor, with Mr. Eveiald Baker; and Master Matthew Davis Egerton with little Miss Elizabeth Fnrgurson. The beautiful display of exquisite cut glass, silver and china, exhibited in the sitting room, bore evidence of the popularity of the young couple whe, at ten o'clook Wednesday morning would plight their vows. The sudden illness of the . bride's father, made necessary a quiet marriage, only the family and a few intimate friends were present. The bride, coming in with her maid of honor Miss Mary Stuart Egerton, was met at the altar by t e groom and his best man, Mr. Iverard Baker, and there, bv the beautiful Episcopal ser vice wefe made man aud wife by Rev. R. W. Bailey, pastor of the Methodist Church. The hush that fell on the household aud thenes over the town wheii it was known that Mr. F. N. Igerton was oritioally ill, was powerless to tob the soene of its beauty. There most inaudible voice of the minister, but the altar with its myriads of pure white lillies, and the fair young bride as beautiful as the roses she bore, lent a oharm to the soene that will linger in memory. Mr. and Mrs. Baker are both well known and very popular in Louisburg. Mrs. Baker is a versatile young woman, a -graduate of Louisburg and Randolph Maoon Colleges, but her popularity is due to har gehtle manners and charming personality, rather than her literary attainments. Mr. Baker is indsntiiied with the inauranoe business hare; and is the youngest son of the late Geo. 8. Baker, whose long and useful life was spent in I<ouieburg. The On#-Hort? F*rm?r.

C.. FRIDA1 oslly, we want te inquire it a system "J" of co-operation can not be out into practice by the one-horse farmers of ^ Ur-y neighborhood whinh will virtn- _ ally make them two- and three-horse farmers ia the breaking and preparing of the lrfnd., Surely one good ^ two-horse plow will ooSt no more ^toen^ two one-horee plows. Two horses, and one two-horse plow will break as much land, and do it better, than two horses and two one-horse j plows. One reversible disk harrow and three horses will bed more land, ^ pulverise more and do more toward preparing the land for planting, than three horses and three one- 1U horse plows. In these comparisons any difference in the quality or to quantity of work is on the side of the two-horse implements. The vi saving of tnan labor will mote than pay any difference in the cost -of {, the implements. Any twe one-horse farmers can, therefore, become two-horse farmers by the purchase of one two-horse plow and a. reversible disk and a smoething barrow and. do- at least one-bait more wotk than they are vl now doing, and do it better. They "may be two-horse farmers ih so far di as tbe breaking of the land and preparing it for the crop is concern- ia ed. Furthermore, by the use ot the smoothing harrow they oan bt two- )g horse farmers in the early cultiva'tiqn of their oropa. By the use -of j the tveeder they can still farther centinue methods of cultivation resembling the approved practice of *" the two-horse farmer, \kfter this by the use of light one horse cultivators, they can do about ? as satisfactory work as the two-horse farmer, although at a higher cost. w This is ao age of combination and w co-operation. Will the one-horse farmers who really wish to do better J, farming consular this plan? Will pi they co-operate to the extent of buy ing the implements in combination j( and preparing the lands by jeiofng ^ their team force? Such a plan is not equal to individual ownership of two horses and the needed implements, ^ but it is infinitely better than the one horse methods new in use. It may be made the meads, of any two 61 neighboring one-horee farmers doing better farming than they Can possibly do working separately with one 1,1 horse.?Raleigh, (N. C.)
