4s? THE NEWS-ntiRALD. T. 0. COBB, Publisher THURSDAY, AUG. 6, 1908. CHIPS. What could be more approprr ate than that candidate Taft should first read his speech of acceptance to the man who pre sented him with the nomination. The Roosevelt deficit for last month has passed the $20,000,000 mark. This is nearly double the deficit for the same period last year and year before, and this is also the last year of Mr. Roose velt's administration. At Fresno, CaL, a butcher has been arrested on the charge of gathering in many stray dogs and working them up into bo logna. Somebody must have found a piece of the muzzle in his sausage. Various newspapers are com menting on the fact that Mr. Kern looks like a farmer". There is a powerful lot of farmers m this country. They are selling booze in walking canes in Birmingham. Ala. It is said that practically every man in that town has developed a limp here of late. A Florida town has nassed an ordinance regulating the speed oi airships overhead. Reform is marching on." Mr. Taft's frankness reminds one of the old negro who, when asked by the judge, "Are you the defendant in this tasp"? replied, "No, indeed, boss; I'se just the nigger that stole the chickens. An Indiana man Rwnllnwcwl a feather a few days ago, and it was only by her i : effort that his life was saved. We presume tnat ne was almost tickled to death. .

"I have found Bucklen's Arnica halve to be the proper thing to use for sore feet, as well as tor healing burns, sores, cuts, and all manner of abra sions, ' writes Mr. W.

It is funny to us how some peo ple who are not subscribers to this paper, or who, perchance have been, and owe several years subscription, know so much about what appears in these col umns. But, then, it is mighty good reading matter, so help yourself, even tho you do dis play a lot of gall. State's most successful farmers; the workers in our State Depart ment of Agriculture; the United States Denartment of Agricul- tieand the faculty of therNorth olina College ot Agriculture. Do not forget the date of this meeting and see that your neigh bors know of it and attend. We wish it distinctly under stood that while it is our desire to treat everybody fairly, and this we shall endeavor to do, The News-Herald is a Demo cratic paper and will talk for Democracy and Bryan and Kitch in and the success of the whole ticket, because we believe it means good government, and we do not feel called upon to Con sult the Republicans or any body else for that matter as to what we shall print or not print; and while we are not responsible for the utterances of correspon dents, we are for our own, and try not to say anything that we are not able to back up. Annual Farmers' Institutes. Correspondence of The News-Herald. The annual Farmers' Institutes for Burke county will be held at Morganton, Sat, Aug. 8, and Connelly Springs, Thursday, Aug. 20, 1908. There will be two or three speakers present, furnished by the State Depart ment of Agriculture and probab ly one from the United States Department of Agriculture in ad dition to local speakers. These institutes are for a free and informal discussion of every day farm problems and no farmer can attend and take part in these discussions without receiving more than enough benefit to pay for the time spent. Under the present manage ment of the Farmers' Institutes no attempt is made to lay down hard and fast rules for farming and no lecturer at these insti tutes is expected to discuss or recommend any practice which he himself has not done success fully or that dozens of farmers in this part of the State are not T t also aomg successfully at this time. The institute lecturers this venr will be selected from among the Institute for the Women from the Farm Homes. Correspondence of The News-Hearld. In connection with the regular, annual Farmers' Institute for men to be held at Connelly Springs, Thursday, Aug. 20, there will also be held a meeting for the women from the farms. One or two women speakers will be furnished by the State Depart ment of Agriculture and these will be assisted by the men con ducting the men's institute. As this meeting will be held on the same day and at the same place as the farmers' institute a joint meeting of the men and women may be arranged for the after noon. The women have greater and even more perplexing problems in the homes than the men have on the farms. Why should they not come together and discuss the problems and get inspiration and help in solving them. We have heard of no women attending such an institute who did not become interested. Those not familiar with the purpose s of the institutes being held by our State Department of Agriculture for the benefit of the the women from the farm homes may be interested in knowing something of the class of sub jects discussed at these meetings, Any or all of the following may be discussed if those present de sire: The Farm Fruit Garden. The Farm Vegetable Garden. Farm Poultry. Farm Butter Making. Beautifying the Home Sur roundings. Home Conveniences. Literature for the Farm Home. Home Making. Home Nui'sing. Cooking Meats, Vegetables, etc. Bread Making. Educating the Girls on the Farm. These are a fair sample of the questions that may be discussed at these women's institutes: and surely they are practical subjects and an intelligent discussion of them cannot tail to be of much benefit to those who attend. Do not forget this meeting for the women. Anderson wants you to see the big line of exclusive patterns for Fall Suits that will be on ex hibition in his store on Broadway Aug. 11th and 12th.

The Democrats are more ag gressive in this campaign than they have been at any time since 1892. Furthermore, the party is as thoroughly united, determided, and harmonious as it was in that famous campaign which resulted in a great Democratic landslide. Mr. Bryan has shown great po litical sagacity in choosing an eastern man, Mr. Norman E' Mack, of Buffalo, who is thoroughly identified with the old Cleveland wing of the party, to manage his campaign, and, who, at the same time,Js a devoted and loyal follower of the eloquent Nebraskan. It is evident that the Demo crats are going to assume the ag gressive, from start to finish, and they are going to assault and storm the Republican breast works all along the line. While Mr. Kooseveit has been a popu lar and patriotic president, they point to the fact that the Repub lican party at heart is as bitterly opposed to him as it is to Bryan In tact the Kepublican party :s so thoroughly wedded to the trusts and corporate interests, and to the interests of wrhat Mr. Roosevelt calls the "wealthy malefactors," that Mr. Roosevelt has been utterly unable to ac complish any good for the country. The great Standard Oil fine of $29,000,000 has been set aside by Standard Oil Repub lican judges and thus deprived the Republicans of the only legit imate evidence of real results yet accomplished by the Roosevelt administration. In fact the Re publicans in this campaign can not point to a single trust that has been "busted" by the admin istration, nor can it point to a single item of relief that has been afforded the people as the result of the Repudlican admin istration. Furthermore, they point to the fact that all of the policies of Mr. Roosevelt that have excited such tremendous popularity and approval were iromulgated by Mr. Bryan long before Mr. Roosevelt ever .hought of them. In other words Air. Roosevelt has gained popu- arity only by carrying out Mr. Aryan's principles which were not only preached by Mr. Bryan but have been incorporated in Democratic platforms as well, and are absent from the Repub lican platform. In other words, if the people want relief they must look to the Democrats and not to the Republicans. -Expert Taylor will be at Anderson's with the biggest line of cloth on the road Tues day and Wednesday, Aug. 11th and 12th. sstOnce a Week We get a shipment of Nunnally's Candy.

When these "inside nerves" fail, indigestion and stomach distress must surely result. For this, druggists everywhere are supplying a prescrip tion known as Dr. Shoop's Restorative. First, thesetiny inside Stomach, Heart, and Kidney nerves fail. Then gas belching, Heart palpitation, or failing Kidneys follow. Don't drug the Stom ach, or stimulate the Heart or Kidneys. That is wrong. Strengthen these fail ing nerves with Dr. Shoop's Restora tive. It is the nerves, not the organs that are calling for help. Within 48 hours after starting the Restorative treatment, you will realize the gain. A test will tell. Sold by Burke Drug Co.

Plain Talks on Fertilizers Increasing and Safeguarding the Wheat-Crop The use of com mercial fertilizers on the wheat crop is year ly becoming more general proof enough that it pays, and pays well. Too many farmers, however, use fertilizers without due regard for the special needs of their soils. Often they buy the cheapest grades. Or they use very small quantities. That such unscientific use of fertili zers has proved profitable indi cates what it can accomplish for wheat grow ers if used more carefully and intelli gently. The best way to learn just what fertilizers will pay you best is to make com parative tests on a itili mm small scale with your sous then use a sufficient amount and you will undoubtedly increase not only the average yields, but your profits as well.
