Remember if your Reporter is not paid for by December 1. we vill discontinue your subscrip -1 :>n, treating good, bad and all! a ke. An exchange very pertinently suggests that if Kngland had a land-going navy, or Germany a sea-going army, the situation might be different. It is said that the opening of i the regional banks this week will release more than 83,000,- OXI.OOO cash. That ought to satisfy the most exacting de-, rr.ands of business. The opening of the big region-' al banks this week, at the same : time that the Liverpool, New York and New Orleans cotton exchanges begin to do business again, will go a long ways to ward furnishing business with that impetus upward which the war so seriously arrested. The present acreage of wheat being sown in Stokes county wiil. in the event of a favorite make us a bread produc -z county. Now if a propor tionate effort be made for corn -.d.-r demonstration methods, will certainly have taken a nderful stt?p in the direction independence. The question is up in congress r . )\v whether or not to increase the army and navy, in view of 'ertain happenings across the r.-aters. Senator Tiilman, of South Carolina, says "By the time the English and Germans jret through sinking each other's ships, we will have the largest ravy in the world, anyhow." NO PARTIALITY. We cannot afford to send on time to some, and make others pay in advance. The same rule Epplies to all. We do this to save book-keeping, trouble, time, ex pense and often hard feelings. Piease help us carry out the new modern way, by paving your subscription in advance by De cember Ist. When tobacco begins to move i* far as the people of Stokes county are concerned the European war may rage. We care nothing about it except as a matter of humanity. The roll cf the loaded wagons across the bridge soothes the financial nervousness, and the unloading of the yellow leaf on the ware house floor loosens all the ties that bind trade and untwists the chains on prosperity. Many of the progressive coun ties like Mecklenburg and Guil ford are what defeated the amendments. Stokes gave a good majority for all of them. Somebody writing in the Greens boro News said the farmers de feated the amendments because they couldn't understand them. This is a slander on the intelli gence of the farmers. The fac t of the business is Mr. Farmer voten more intelligently than any other class of people, as a rule. To go a step farther, he is furnishing most of the cash as well as character in this coun try anyhow these days. Danbury people had to do without any papers Saturday, Sunday and until Monday even |injar, owing to somebody's neglect in not getting the second class mail sacks delivered here Satur day evening. Those of us who anticipated among the blessings of good roads an earlier mail, have been handed a lemon. The mail which is delivered to our carrier at Walnut Cove a little after eleven, rarely reaches us until nearly four in the after noon. It is a pity Uncle Sam is too poor to pay the mail man a decent salary which would en able him to use express service instead of freierht. • The coca-cola habit has made tremenduous strides in the country during the last few years. Not long ago this traffic was confined to the cities, but now the "doDe" crat* is a necessary part and parcel of the stock in trade of the average ; country merchant. The plough man loves it as well as the book keeper. and doesn't hesitate to spend his hard coin for it. The spread of the coca-cola habit need not unduly frighten any body. It is serving a useful purpose in. largely taking the place of whiskey. In China they are cutting out opium and sub stituting tobacco, vvhile in Stokes Iwe are changing booze for 'done." PRHACHERS AM) RICHES. The Dan bury Reporter says Rev.li.W. George, a Presbyterian minister, is the wealthiest citizen of Stokes county, "owning near , 1,000 acres of land, besides four large roller mills and various other property." The Reporter doesn't so state, but it is assum ed that Mr. George is no longer in the work of the ministry. Active work in the ministry doesn't usually bring large re ; turns of this world's goods and a preacher of wealth is usually a retired preacher. Rev. Dr. J. C. Rowe of Asheville once confided to the Landmark that it was his observation that whenever a preacher began to make money "something gets the matter with his throat." Statesville Land mark. The Landmark's assumption that Mr. George has retired be cause of his great wealth, is incorrect. He is still very active in the work of saving the souls of his neighbors. Although Mr. George is probably worth $200,- 000, we have never heard that anything was the matter with his throat, and he is therefore an exception to the rule as noted by Dr. Rowe, i Try This for Your Cough. Thousands of people keep coughing because unable to get the right remedy. Coughs are caused by Inflammation of Throat and Bronchial Tubes. What you need is to soothe this Inflam mation. Take Dr. King's New Discovery, it penetrates the deli cate mucous lining, raises the Phlegm and quickly relieves the congested raembrances. Get a 50c. bottle from your druggist. "Dr. King's New Discovery quickly and completely stopped my cough" writes J. R. Watts. Floydale. Texas. Money back if not satisfied, it nearly always helps. If it's anything in jewelry get it from E. P. Newsom, King.

Hudson of the Farm Demonstration work of the State j department of agriculture has returned from Washington where last week he attended a number of conferences relative to the operation of the Smith-Lever bill in the extension of financial aid to agricultural work. "By virtue of this bill." said! ! ; Mr. Hudson to a News and Ob server reporter, "a number of counties in North Carolina will be able to have farm demonstra tion work hitherto impossible by reason of lack of finances." 1 Already there are sixty-five counties in the State lined up lor the work, and these sixty live counties hava prospered mightily under the impetus of of scientific farming. With the ■ Smith-Lever bill operating favor (ably, it will be only a short time before farm demonstration agents ar--> at work in every county of the S:ate. In the line of the extension j work of the State department of ' agriculture, a department has been made in the direction of ' making life on the farm more profitable and more livable for the farm women. The Home Economics Department will be inaugurated. It will embrace instruction in cooking, house hold work in general, literary features, and woman's club. Twenty poultry clubs have been organized and are now actively engaged under directions of an expert, said Mr. Hudson. In addition there are three hundred active members of pig clubs in co-operation with the Animal; Division of the State depart ment of agriculture. These are practically new lines of activity for the department. The boys of the corn clubs and the girls of the canning clubs have already demonstrated what can be done in the line of or ganized endeavor for the pro motion of the science of profit able farm work. are now boys corn clubs in 97 counties and there are forty-five hundred boys lined up in the work. The canning clubs are of more recent organization but there are more than forty counties already in the work. ————______ | Important. j Bear in mind that Chamber lain's Tablets not only move the bowels but improve the appetite and strengthen the digestion.
