It will publish the Christian Sun and the Eion loilege Weekly, the College Buil- ietins, and do a large jobbjing business. , is good reason tor this, ton; for on3 of the gieat needs of Southern agriculture is the substitution of improved fanii implements and abundant’ liorse and mechanical pov^^'er for the crude, out-of-date eqiiipment and the human muscle now so largely depended upon. One rt a^on ftr our low yields and small profits is to be found in our ineflicient farm equipment; and it cannot be too often said j that just as long as we try to farm with such equipment are going to be left behind in the I march of prosperity by rhe farm ers who use more power and better tools and so make their labor count for more than ours. That is the sum of the whole! matter—the labor of the man who uses poor tools does not count as it should. Take the man who breaks la i with a ono-horse plow, the man who plants his corn or cotton by hand, the man who follows a bull-tongue or double-shovel across the field, the man who cuts grain with a cradle or pulls fodder by hand—these men in the very nature of things cannot get the returns from their toil that hard-working farmers should receive. They are trying to do the work that horses and ma chines should do, and this is a sadly mistaken policy, A man is better than a machine, and certainly too good to become a mere competior of machinery. He should instead, make the machine his servant—furnish the I intelligence and the will to direct it and shift as much as possible of the hard work upon it. Just in proporcion as he does this will be able to make his labor count both in the amount accomplished by it and in the profit received from it. Get better equipment, Mr. Farmer and make .your labor count for more.—Progressive Farmer. have to like them. You can never reply upon your estimate of any one you dislike. If, there* fore, a certain person irritates angers or disgusts you, be care ful to form no judgement at all i of him, for it is sure to be wrong. I This is a very vital point. I T.iere is no insight into character without love. Just learn that truth by heart, please; because it is about the truest truth there is. To judge men justly you must be independent of them. Your opinion of any one from whom you expect favors or fear harm is not worth a cent. Vanity, pr. i egotism and ail such forms sitiveness of self, are .ni-rect ment.—Du V rham Sun. special f iudg- Jantuary ffikny A.t Suicif«. A Winston Dispatch, '.h, says: ■‘After bsiing prevented by his ;iece. Miss Mabei Conrad, iTom snooting himself with a shot* I'in, Gor(feii Shutt, a wealtshy iarmer of IDavidson CcHinty, Kxty years old and unmarried, -iashed his throat with a kisdfe, while taking the weapon iWay from her uncle, Miss Con- had' b&ih hands, gashed lUip ir.d she may lose'two fingers. ‘ The inaa/ne man then be®an ' urting his aead against an apple vree. He was carried to the .';ouse and wMle ipassing through tne hall pick-ed up a long hat-pdm and endeavi!red to stab him-self >: the breast. Failing in this ^?ort to end feis ilife, Shutt cist ugly gafeh an his forehead.!

Daputy Marshal T. W. Vincent, of the Federal offices in Greens boro has been notified of the death in the state of Washing ton of his cousin Mr. Albert Huges. The information was without details except that Mr. Huges was killed. Deceased was in the lumber business in the Western state and made his home in Tacoma. He w^as of North Carolina and member of a prominent family. His bro ther, Dr. Huges, lives at Cedar Grove, and Mr. Robert W. Scott, of Alamance county was his bro ther-in-law. How To Jadge Pe&j»!e. It was an old saying among lawyers that some judges were in a bad humor at times and then rnore apt to be «nj w8t thap just the trial' of cases. A governor of a northern state was about to retire some years ago when a judge of the court with tears in his eyes begged him to pardon a certain man from the penitenti ary. The judge confessed that he was himself fust recovering from a spree wheti the man was tired and that he ^ ve the prison er the worst of it >even to the extent of making the sentence for a longer term than the man ■should have received. Of course the pardon was grasated. One of the oldest adages is “never do af^ythijig when you are mad’'and thes^ iis another ■old saying that ■*''those whom the ;gods would destroy they first make mad.Dr. Frank Crane an Woman’s World fo^r February in writing ©n to judge ipeople says: To get along with y-our neigh- ibors to be on felictous _ terms with your relatives, to enjoy the 'Organizations of society,, such as ehurches and parties, .and to succeed in business, it is im- pjirtant to be a good j udgeof men. Here are a few hints: To judge men correetiy you NOTICE! Road Tax For 1913, Due. The special road poll tax for the year 1913 is now due and pay able until the firstday of April. Under the old the Treasurer was paid a small commission for collecting and handling this fund. And heretofore I have given that commission to thos,e who looked after it in the different Town ships.

Accord ing to instruction from the Coun ty Commissioners, the books will be at my office in the court house in Graham, and all persons desiring to pay wili pay to me, un less they find someone else with the books.
