Now that an extra session of the bgislature is called many of them that have been anxiously awaiting such a thing may be satisfied. In a few days we are going to work on our list to get it in shape and hope that we will not have to mark off a single name. Give' this matter your attention at once. Some of them are making gome right bad charges about certain matters a long ways in advance of the campaign, and it may be they will have something greater to say as it approaches. Although national and state pontics have been the .talk for gome time, county matters and guch thlngi get the people in every nook" and corner of the county have not begun to take definite shape. However, pres ent indications are that in Dur ham county- the local fight for gome of the jobs will be won by the fellows that have the best fighting qualities. - i tieM In' II Tie Time. The Lexington Dispatch well gays: " J! advertising, ever pays-and onlv itmorance denies that' it does-it ouzht to pay more dur ing the "dull" months between the holidays and iorinz than at any other season. It strikes us that this is the time for a live merchant to "get busy." And yet the general ran of business men in this part of the state usually lop off their advertising and practically give up to thr de mon of dull times, instead of re doubling their advertising ef forts to win trade. Naturally this is a subject in which we are selfishly interested, but it is oneinwhich the wise business man will readily see that he also is far more deeply interested than we are. He has more at stake; he stands to make more. Advertising pays. Every print ei word about a man of his busi ness aids in shaping his bank ac count and his destiny. The range of result is wide; the range of Debilities boundless. On this s abject one of trie eldest adver tising agents in thecountry says; "It would be a foolish man in deed who would cut off his fire insurance when a conflagration loomed upon the horizon, or who considered cancelling hh life in surance when his health was poor. For exactly the same rea son nowise business man. will long consider cutting off his busi ness insurance -which is adver tising simply because there is a little temporary tightening up of things financial." fence Posts Made Durable. ' Fence posts of many kinds of cheap wood ordinarily would soon decay if set on the ground can be made to last for twenty years by a simple treatment with creosote. Most of the so-called "inferior" woods are well adap ted to the treatment, and this is especially,' true of Cottonwood, aspen, iillow, sycamore, low grade pips, and some of the turns. When properly treated, these woVls outlast untreated cedar andoak, which are be coming too icarcrt and too much in demand for other uses to al low of their meeting the; demand for fence post ' Impregnation with creosote has been greatly cheapened by the introduction of the "opertank.V which can be installed at a cost of from $30 to $44, or much less if an old boiler is used. A tank with a bottom 12 square feet in area will suffice for treating " 40 or 50 6-inch . posts a day, or double this number when two runs per day can be made. The absorption of creosote per post is about as follows: Eucalyptus, one-tenth gallon; willow, two- tenth gallon, sassafras, ' ash, hickory, red oak, water oak, elm, and maple, four-tenths gallon; Douglas fir, quaking aspen, and black walnut, six-tenths gallon; sycamore, cotton-wooa, ana lodgepole pine.tseven-tenths gal lons. The price of creosote is about 10 cents per gallon in the East and Middle West, 16 cents per gallon on the Pacigc coast, and 26 cents per gallon in the Rocky Mountain States. The cost of treating a post will there fore vary from 4 to 15 cents. Properly treated it should give service tf or at least twenty years. Experiments of the Forest Service show that with preser vative treatment the durability of lodgepole pine in Idaho is in creased sixteen years. The cost of creosote is there relatively high, yet by treating posts there is a saving, with interest as 6 per cent, 2 cents per post .yearly. More important than the saving, however, is the factthat through preservative treatment other woods are fitted to take the place of cedar, of which the supply is rapidly becoming exhausted. A detailed description of experi ments in preserving fence posts, together with practical sugges tions for treating them on a com mercial scale,' are contained in Circular 117 Jof the Forest Ser vice. This publication can be obtained upon application to the Forester at Washington, TEE GS1SD1SGS OF TEE CDUEIJ. (Continued from lint we.) months.
