After two weeks of the coldest ' March weather we ever experienced the mercury began to climb and to- . day (Wednesday the 24th) there are ' many evidences that spring has ar- - rived. The earth is covered with a < carpet of green, peach, pear and plum ] trees are unfolding their bloom in tbe i light of maan, which indicates a I bountiful fruit crop. We don’t know ! whether there be absolute truth in i all moon signs or not, but we are 1 always more hopeful of luscious fruit \ when the blossoms appear in the light i of the moon. Messrs. W. B. Black and Rob Gar- , mon, aged men, of Cabarrus, are se riously ill. The infant of Mr. and Mrs. Grady i Black was buried last Tuesday. Most 1 of the people here have had or have \ the grip. School boys and girls are talking J commencement day. From t reports ■ coming from the various schools of < the township we believe No. Ten’s ] schools will make a creditable report i on that day. We are glad to see such a wide- , spread interest shown in the spelling contests which are now on. There should be many high school students of Cabarrus county enter the Char lotte Observer’s contest. We have as good spellers in Cabarrus county as there are in any county of tbe state. If not. why not? Teachers bripg ' the boys and girls to the front. They i may be winners. As is the custom of correspondents when giving their en dorsement to these contests to submit n list of hard words we shall break that custom by submitting one only. It is not given as an entry word blit as a meaningless tongue twister. When pronounced correctly it is high sound ing and makes the pronouncer feel ' like he has said a mouthful. Here it is, try it: Honorificabilitudinitattibus quenarian. Recent terrace demonstrations giv en by R. D. Goodman, farm agent, on the farms of W. M. Qourley, W. E. White and Sam Black, were witness ed by a large number of fanners at each demonstration, which indicates an interest on the part of the farmers in the tireless efforts of the agent to help them improve their farms. Another good sign that the farmers are aroused to the need of better farming is the fact that most of the cotton seed that will be planted here this year have been graded. Tbanka to Mr. Goodman for his talks to farmers on the sub ject of the care of the soil. Boil prep aration and good seed, and many oth er farm problems. Venus, we are of tbe opinion that the correspondents of The Times and Tribune should meet in picnic fashion this year at Ruch time and place as you may designate. Whoop it up. We are with you. H. Counties in Texas. What state in the United States has the greatest number of counties, and which one has the smallest num ber? Some time ago we answered this question by saying, Texas lends all the state* in the number of coun ties—24s. Delaware, with only three counties, has the smallest number. The statement was correct except in I respect to the number of counties in Texas. Emma Grigsby Meharg, sec retary of state for TexSa, informs us that Texas has 252 counties, two of, which are unorganised. The unor-| ganized counties are Ector and Lov ing, Ector being attached to Crain county and Loving to Reeves county for purposes of amdinistration. “I understand Crimson Guteh is en joying a real estate boom." “Yep," answered Cactus Joe.
