Tni- is the town in North
Carolina. Whenever a fire occurs,
there I*. not enough water to mix
chemicals in the engine purchased
for that purpose. Yes, we are dry,
but only when n fire comes.
The eni'orial "Theodore Roose
velt and The S«mth" in the News
and Observer rf Tuesday was a
perfect pen picture of the wily
Colonel. We catinct believe that
the men of the South will be bam
boozled by this mountebank. Tj'.e
Republican party is bad enough,
but save us from Roosevelt.
The election is one month off
and wt:hin that time the result will
be decided. The entire country
will be thoroughly—canvassed.
Roosevelt is making his plea before
the South, but the South has heard
of the nrglitv hunter before, and
there is little use to say to her:
'Trust h'rn not, O gentle lady.*'
He is in the advanced sfige of
egotism and eauuot see the hand*
writing on the wall.
Care with Peanuts
The greatest crop which Martin
County produces is its peanut crop.
The soil can and does grow the
succulent nut to perfection and our
fartnets many of them, are pioneers
iu the growth of the nut. This
year the crop is generally good,
but not as great as that of last
year. There were so many in some
lands las: season that enen the hogs
faile I to get them out.
The time for harvesting is near
at hand, and to insure the best re
suits, the farmer should exercise
every care in diggiug, stacking and
picking One reason why some
people never get the highest markei
price for the crops produced bj
them, is that they fail to give pto
per care to the harvesting. It is
poor farming to raise a good cro' f
of anything and then let same bi
improperly handled. This is verj
true of tobacco. Many farmer:
produce fite crops iu the field bu
on the salesroom floor, thevpreseu
a pooi appearance So with pea
uuts Tbev may be of the fines
quality and production, but care
less handling w ill lessen their valui
greatly. The weather has much
do wi'h crop, but that has t
"be met in 1 everything. Carefu
handling and stacking will mak
good stock foi* the picker. Am
here comes a great difficulty. S
many people neglect to properl
cull the nuts even when picked b
hand. When a machine is used
great cart; should be taken to kee
them clear of sticks,trash,etc. Clea
nuts of good quality are nlway
desired by the buyers. Some fai
mers have a desire to rush
to market, and so fail to give pn
per care to their produts. Tb
farmers of the county should deriv
every benefit from the crops raise
in this and in every succeedin
year.

A Gill to Teachers
The great majority of the school
teachers of North Carolina, practi
cally the entire body of teachers of
the State, favor the election of

He is a great educator as well as a

hearts of all the teachers. He
stands for education, for the best
things in life and he ihe
support of the 'eichers.

Every teacher in the State who is
