OUH PRODUCTION.
.Some of our people act as if they feir
.an over production of something to eai
!■ this section. To such we would «ay,
have po bars friends about tb»t, let us
asture ypy that there is cot the least
danger in that direction, nut one uj a
hundred of you have had enough of
home grown supplies to eat through the
winter,'one year, in twenty, who of you
(excuse us for being plain, that is our
way of talking, and whether conncuted
with this paper or riot, we mean to be
V sJ
plain, but do rot intend to offeud you)
but who of yon will have boiled with
your own r*imd bacon, cabbage, pota
toes, Uiiled onions, piokels, chicken,
butter and eggs, of your own production
for dibuer Christmas day ' And these
are oaly a few of the things you might
have. We would say not more than
one in fifty, about seventy five iu every
hundred will have to put up with a lit
tle bog, and homncy, and 75 per e,ont
of you a few weeks later, will have to
tall back on western bacon, and '»fn
ftre&d, provided your "backor" briugs a
big price, and you have any thing left
to pay for the western bacon, if not you
will have to eat the corn bread, "the
cfum with the crust, and the crust with
the orumb," but thank Uod water is free,
and we can all have water enough If we
dont use it too extiavagantly in wetting
the whiskey we drank tbc night be
fore.
Mow farmers of Stokes, we are not
mad, nor dwt want to make you mad,
Jbut tell you plainly, that it is a shame,
.that we should depend upon wostem
farmers Car our bacon, flour, corn, cab
bage, potatoes, and many other things
we have to eat, to keep soul and body
.together, and in addition to paying thom
for these articles pay, we know not bow
flUaj middle men profits, in addition
to heavy freights, when in most cases,
we could raise enough for our own use,
and hardly miss the time. It is no won-
4cr 'bat money in scarce in the South
w« must buy the very things no
ought to sell. No wonder money is
scarce, when we consider that the v»ry
stay of the land. our farmers must go
£»|f Staffed for vegetables through the
months, and send off the little
money they get for their tobacco for
western bacon, and Northern vegetables.
Why ! goodness alive, if there is any
class of people under the sun who ought
f.o live on the fat of tho land, it is that
,olass we call farmer, who dig it out of
#ie ground
You seem'to thiuk time spent atten
ding to your hogs, work in your gardens,
and truck patches, thrown away, that
much time lost, don't you know thai
a penny saved, is two made * Then why
do you continue to depend upon buying
the tbiugs you ean make at home, foi
half, or one fourth the money, you have
to pay for them ! Why pay ten cents
for a pabJjigo, when you could grow it
for lass than one cent, or $l.OO for a
)}uabel of irUh potatoes, vyhen you could
raise tbem at home for less I nan 26 cts
per bushel? When it takes cash, actual
bard dol)ara, to pay for these thingß,
and dollars dont grow on your trees,
irithout the trouble of gathering. You
may not havp a ready njarket for your
' furplus vegetables af, homp, b«t you
may grow enough for your pwn use, and
not have tbem to buy or do without, and
if you have plenty of vegetables, you
will not have so much western meet to
buy. If North Caroliait had made her
ewn supplies at home since the war, she
would have today been une ol the rioh

Little places sometimes have a man, and
a man is more to a place thai) locatiuu

Many of our exobsnges use patent
outsiiies, it may be that some of us
irould furnish better papers, if both, in
and out were ready print. Lets do it,

May, if not they will come home to
deadhead it in the South. Shame,
shame, its a shame, that we should
want every thing manufactured in some
other State, our young men want some
thing to do, why not give them a chance
to learn printiog at home
It is useless, perfectly absurd to talk
about building a town in Stukos, that
will amount to much without manufac
turers. We must have the town. Where
will it be ! and what will we manufac
ture ' Tobacco is our staple, iron is
our real t>treu£f>W, shall wo combine
th«a wttli the coal on Town fork and
build a big town ' Who will say we
will. We have every thing but the man,
millions of Northern capital is seeking
investment, who is the man with pluck,
energy, and enterprise eutugh to step
forward aud say, the Town shall be
built. The iron, coal niaugauese, and
lime, can be easily, and cheaply con
troled.
"I«ike beget like," is no more plain
ly manifest, iu any place, or business,
than is the building of a town. One
fellow opens a store in a new town and
succeeds will, another, and auother fol
lows, until the business : .i overdone. Iu
another village one party commence)
manufacturing, no difference what the
article, or how small the beginning he
sucoeods Others seeing his success
start similar establishments, one helps
another, all succeed until that village
becomes a manufacturing town, and
grows from small to great, until one
manufactury, added to another, it be
oomes a great manufacturing city See
Lowells cotton goods, Pittsburgh and
liermingbams iron, and a dozen or twen
ty tobacco towns in the South, manu
facturing towns do not go backward but
forwaid.
DKINK AT MKAL TIME.
Little drink should be allowed at
meals to weakeu the digestive fluids.
I liese are the saliva, gastric juice and
bile. Bile is not found in a healthy
stomach ; if it Is ejected in vomiting, it
shows that the action of the stomach ir-
inverted. Knowledge of this would
save many from swallowing emetics and
cathartics to rid the stomaehc of bile.
Copious draughts of water should be
taken between meals to furnish the
stomach material necessary for the di
gestive fluids. Water drinking an hour
before moals .should constitute a habit
from infancy to old age It] quantity
must be regulated by the condition of
eachpcrsou. Lean people usually driuk
very littlo and are large oaters, while
fat persons are apt to eat little and
drink much. If the older be changed,
it will, iq most cases, make the lean
grow fat, and the fat people will have
tho comfort of seeing their own shadows
grow less.—Mrs. E. G. Cook, M. D.,
in Demorest's.

WHEN A NOTE UNDKII SISAL If
BARRED.
The question, "When a sealed note
is barred by the statute of limitations,"
puzzled soveral of our best business men
recently. Ouo of them looked the mat
ter up and handed a solution to the re
porter, with the request to publish. It
li copied from "The Law in North Ocr
lma of Notes and Dratts, and is as
follow*
•' The statute of limitations bars nu
action on a bond or nolo under seal fur
the payment of money nftu ten years as
to tiie principal and threeyaars as to the
surety. If, however, payments are en
dorsed theieou the time must be eouutcd
from the last payment.
"The statute of limitations bars an
action on a promiuissory note not undc r
seal after three yearr as to principal and
surety alike, with the same proviso as
to endorsed paynien ts, as above "

I live in the midst of the malarial disr
tricts of Maryland, near the city of
Washington, and am exposed to all the
dangerous influences of the impute ait
and water of,(hat-legion.
Being naturally of a strong consti
tution, 1 had frequently boasted that
no chills and fever or other malarious
complaint would ever trouble me.
This was my experience and the con
dition in which I found myself six
months ago. I fust noticed that I did
■ot feel so sprightly and vigorous as
was my wqnt tP do. 1 felt tired and
enervated.' Soon I noticed a distinct
and distressing back ache would makt
its appearance in the afternoon, in
creasing in seventy it the exercise was
more titan usu.ill) violent. Then a
stretchy feeling with profuse gaping
made its appeal tn> e. Then my head,
always cleat as a bell, would feel heavy
and I began to have headaches.
The Cold stage was marked with chat
tering of the teeth, severe ligors passed
over me, and no amount of clothing
could keep me warm. The chill was
succeeded in turnTiy the fever, in which
I seemed to be burning up, the con
gestion in my head produced a violent
pain in the frontal portion and a heat
ed sensation of the eyelids, with an in
describable aching of the lower limbs.
Nausea and vomiting occurred with
severe retchings, and when the parox
ysms passed off I was thoroughly pros
trated by a weakness that was felt ia
every part of me.
1 drugged myself with quinine, and
obtained some relief. But my respite
was of brief duration. I was now so
much reduced that I could hardly walk
or stand upright. My disease soon
culminated in a continued malarial fe
ver which kept nie closely confined for
about a week. I became exceedingly
depressed and melancholy, so much so
that 1 lost interest in Hiv work, and,
indeed, scarcely cared what happened
to me.
During all I his time, it must I* un
deistood that I did not neglect medical
treatment All the most powerful
remedies were tried, such a*.liquid ar
senate of potash, valeriaivte of iron,
mercury, bromide of potassium, chlo
ride of biomuth, chinoidiue, eliinchaot
du, quinine ir*ctni olliefi. AU
this I did «ruler lite aovic* of eminent
physicians.
, It was while I was in this dcj4orat>le
condition that tlie claims mode for
Kaskinr, the new quinine, as a specific
for malaria, were first brought to m?
attention. 1 knew nothing of its value
to justify my having any confidence in
it, but as everything else had failed I
deemed it tny duty to try it, so I began
its use, and it* prompt and radical ef
fects were of the nature of a revelation
to me. Many people may think the
statement scarcely credible, but it is a
fact that after only a few days' use of
Kaskine all the leading symptoms in
my case were decidedly abated or
ceased altogether; and in a few weeks
from the time i took the first dose I
was cured.
This was about the first of January,
and since thtn I have experienced no
recurrence of the malarial symptoms
in any foitn A lemedy of such ex
ceptional virtue for the cure of malaria
ought to be commended and univer
sally made known. 1 have therefore
urged it upon the attention of my
friends, seveftd of whom have used it
with like go d re ults in every case,
and it is with the greatest pleasure
and sincerity that I commend Kaskine
to sufferers from malaria everywhere.
