Floyd, convicted in Beaufort county in October, 1911, of selling liquor and resisting an officer and sentenced to 12 months in each of three, has been granted a. conditional pardon because of ill health. The pardoned man must prove his sobri' ety and conduct before the recorder, The reasons for the pardon follow: The county superintendent of health has certified to me that fur- ther imprisonment in Jail or work on the public roads will . seriously impair the health and endanger the life of this prisoner, who has served a part of his sentence. I therefore pardon prisoner on condition that he remain law-abiding and of good be havior and that ha abstain from the use or intoxicating liquors ana drugs and the dope class, and on the fur ther condition that he appear before the recorder on the first Monday in June, 1912, and every sixty il iys iheicHfUr for two years an I s.iiil7 ' him that' he has not viula'u-d li e ! conditions of the pardon; Jiml wi ii'it j further condition that he . lma pity J the cost of the actions and the ex pense of bringing him from Virginia by requisition." ' ' V . -fUeplaa aa aaaearaaces It pays to clean up the yards, back, sides and front, and the care of one is as important as the other, The front vard is kept clean for your neighbor to, look at, while the back yard is the one most seen -by the family.- It is a good thing, after all useless trash; tree or shrub trim mings and rank growing weeds have been removed, to have a pot of gov eminent white wash to put on the fences, stone walla, and board struct ures of any kind, and if there is a rockery a liberal supply of white wash' 'will not' hurt it.'; Rough boards, atones in the yard! find all unsightly places are all the bet ter Jor it. One of the best brushes for such work is one of the ten cent whisk brooms; grease the hands well before beginning the work, for lime will roughen them; use heavy gloves, and have the head well tied up in order to keep any lime put of the hair.'. If flowering plants are grown in the .yard, keep the borders straight and the edges even, and keep the old blooms, cut off as fast as they fade. Where there are un sightly views before the kitchen or dining room windows, do not fail to have a screen of vines, or suitable shrubs or low-growing trees. Re member that it is the outside world that sees these things, and judges you by what it sees, FLOYD ALLEN FOUND GUILTY. Mast Fay tor Bis Awral Deal Bis Life. Wllk Wytheville, Va., May 17. Alone with is conscience, and with such thoughts as must be the most terri ble in human experinece. Floyd al ien ait to-night in his cell, adjudg ed by a jury of his fellow-citizens to be guilty of the murder of William M. Foster, and of the conspiracy to wipe out the human element of the Circuit Court of Carroll county, Within two short months of the day when he undertook to shoot down the law, the machinery of justice, surrounded by all the forms of that law which he sought to destroy, has considered him unworthy to live. : Because he considered himself su perior to courts and to officers, and refused to submit to the decrees of juxuet',' Floyd Allen committed a rime which startled the civilized vnrlil. Now, as predicted by Joseph l. Wysor at the outset of . the' trial which has just ended, "those moun tains and vales and pleasant, places Carroll will know him no more for ever." In his vain attempt to place liinipeJf about the law he has forfeit- d his own life, desolated his home, l-ut the lives of his sons in imminent jeopardy and beggared his descen dants and his kinsmen. -. It was deemed unnecessary to take (he condemned man to Roaaoke, in view of the announcement of his counsel that he would be a witness in the trial of his son. ; ' t It was because of this fact that delay was had in fixing the date for Floyd Allen's execution. His attor neys put forth the plea that his evi dence would be weakened if he were under sentenee of death. - Admitting the jijrtice of this, Judge Staples aggreed that final judgement should nOl bv entered ai present, certainly not until after the ' trial of Claude, and perhaps not until all the Allen cases are disposes of . . Dees II Fay to Tap CottoaT Bulletin No. 165, of the Mississippi Experiment Station givea the results of topping cotton in 1907, 1909, 1910 and 1911, as follows: , . In 1907 cotton topped August 3, yielded 1,803 pounds seed cotton. This-difference'of 233 pounds is the largest shown in any of the te3ts, the same year cotton topped August 26, yielded 1,780 pounds seed cotton, while that not topped yielded 1,821 pounds. Why the two topped plots yielded so near the same, while there is a difference of 246 pounds of seed cotton per acre in the two Sub-Division untopped plots does not appear. In fact, there is more difference be tween the two plots not topped in 1907 than between the topped and not loppea. In 1909 cotton topped August-1. yielded 1,580 pounds, while that not topped 1.4B4 ounds per sere. In 1910,' the cotton not topped yielded 1,321 pounds per acre, while that topped July 23, yielded 1,666 pounds seed cotton and that topped August 5, 1,752 pounds per acre. In 1911, the cotton top- ed July IS yielded 1,931 pounds seed cotton per acre, that topped Aagust 1, 1, 788 pounds and (hat not topped 1, 756 pounds. . i , The average for. the seven plots that were topped Is 1,758 pounds of seed cotton per acre, while the aver age of the five plots not topped is 1,- 687 pounds per acre, or a difference of 71 pounds of seed cotton per acre. This will pay well for topping. If we disregard the one test in 1907, in which there was such an ex treme difference between the topped and use. the other four tests the topped cotton produced an average yield of 1,749 pounds, while that not topped yitHded .1,714 pounds ' per acre. U his still snows a. ditierence of 34 pound 'f seed cotton per acre in'avwr of topping. Progressive Farmer. .. ' . ' ;V Fertilise Aleae Waal Pay. No farm was ever improved by planting any crop continually on the land and depending on commer cial fertilizer to make it. That is the road to soil exhaustion. That has worn the rich soil of the wheat lands of the Northwest, the tobacco soils of the upper South and the cot ton lands of the South. It Is re sponsible for the deep, red gullies in thf Piedmont section, for the old field nines atFi : tb ; South. Broomsedgy and the pines on the old fields are doing their best to restore the humus man has wasted, and we can learn from them what is needed, and can do it more rapidly than the broomsedge and the pine trees do. Get at it and beat the pines. W. F. Massey in The Progressive Farmer. . Helps A Judge In Bad Fix, Justice Eli Cherry.of Gillia Mills, Tenn., was plaiDly worried.

Saatbara -Peaple Haw lrrtwla Yea Ike Nartk. Atlanta, May 23.-At llii warnn of the year southern punters sre be ginning to borrow bark from the north, at a high rate of interest, the money which thy thwelvts fend north and east in inn) ranee premi ums and other payments; money which could" just as easily be kept in the south if merchants and farmers alike would practice as well as preach the economic principle of "patron izing home industry." , Business men in Atlanta, and bankers too, have studied a great deal to figure out approximately how much the south is uselessly drained of each year in thin way, . and have unomt ravening evidence to snow that the loss is enormous. Fire insurance and life insurance premiums are both sent north in sums running up to millions of dol lars, though both branches of insur ance sre represented in the south by home southern companies whose absolute solidity and reliability is unquestioned in the financial world. It is only through the stranjre un willingness of some southerners to believe in their own south, according to persons who have investigated conditions, here, that this steady stream of money continues to flew north and east. However, it is increasing in volume each year and the southern companies, grow ing and broadening are steadily get ting a larger and fairer proportion of the business.. This is said to be particularly true of fire insurance companines which have witnessed wonderful develop ments in the southern field during the past decade or two. . Fire in- fUinanca nffyjwia in A.Uta km cently been quote as declaring that the leading southern compani ranked with the best of their kind anywhere in the world, and the steadily increasing volume of bu si ness they are doing lends color and Substance to the statement.

' - 01; '20 . Choice. The "Oli-Tlmea" as The Naw We are sometimes tempted to go off upon a false and hopeless quest. We imagine that the two classes of Negroes het wren which the" South mny choose is the old-iime darkey mid the Drewnt-day Negro. But ptaeticully there Is no ?uch alterna. live for us today.. We must clearly fee, many of us with sorrow, that the ' Id, lime darkey In forever gone. He was the product of I he condition of flavery, conditions which no mar at the South could or would restore. We cannot choose between the old time darkey and the new. . We, im practical men, must make our chol.-e between the two clashes of the new the class of quiet, sensible, Indus trious men and women (as yet a mi nority steadily increasing) who serk through intelligence and skill to Im useful to themselves and to thtir country, and the class (upon the oth er hand) which is backward, thrift less -which draws from the land of the community only what it may consume, which creates no wealth because it has no needs, which fur nishes the rapist, the loafer, the in cendiary, which presents no theore tic competition for the job of our skilled laborer largely because the class of Negroes is not much posswraed of any skill nor much en amored of any conceivable ' job. There are just two classes of Ne groes in our land today those who are going forward and those who going backward. -1 have little doubt as to the choice which the South will make. Edgar Gardner Mur phy. Wa Naa4 Kara Urn and rfeat. The Western f ai nr.ers of late years have been abandoning pasturage ana cattle-grazing fields to plant more corn. But there are at this time neither corn nor cattle enough in the country. Supply falls far short of demand. The people who''re8tor 9 functional organs to eat meat are getting far more num erous than the people who furnish the meat supply. We must either get more of our own farmers enga ged in cattle raising or we must call upon outside fanners in Canada, Mexico and Argentina to supply our deficit. To fence foreign producers out of our markets by high tariff rates is a manifest stupidity. The cost of transportation for outside sources of supply to our doors and the competitive prices obtained for meats in outside markets furnish a sufficient protective advantage to American farmers.
