topics for the consideration of every
farmer, and they should bare in mind
the 25 per cent reduction of the 1904
crop which has been named by the
Southern Cotton Association for the
present year. The Mecklenburg
branch, as well as the North Carolina
Division, has advocated this reduction
and this will be one of the most im

one of Rowan's thriving villages, have
agreed to bear the expense of length
ening the free school term at that
place. This is a commendable step on
the part of the members of the local
lodge at that place.

Mayor Boyden Eas instructed the po
lice to arrest all persons found on the
streets intoxicated to the extent of

to "brace up" when he appears on the
