Landowners' Association North Carolina, especially the eastern sect ion o( our State, Is lalmriug under some very serious handicaps. Hookworm, malaria, and the cattle lick are retarding the progress ami development of litis great State and these evils should be banished without quib bling and further delay. This great State should be made clean. A State-wide law is the only cure -tor the cattle tick menace aud su c h constructive legislation should be p,ut into effect at once, hs in South Carolina, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, aud other in fected Southern States. A State wide law completely bauished this abominable pest, the cattle tick, from our sisler States, The re mill is, that those States have de veloped rapidly in tllo Uvestock industry aud are no longer de pendent on western States for i heir meat .supply, lard, butler, cheese, uiilk, and Cream. The isaiie is clearly drawn between ecrubby cattle with the cattle tick aitd pure-bred livestock with no cattle tick. Tlie hour isathand when Norlh Carolina must take cognizance of existing evils aud banish theui from our midst. As statesman aud member of the General As sembly, we respectfully iuvite your attention ajid your support in the movement for Stale-wide tick eradication, which will mean more and better livestock, more butter, cheese, lard, uiilk, aud crt?am for our babies aud our grown-ups.

FED FIGHTERS FOR LIBERTY p- Last Mill That Supplied Bread for tha Colonial Armlaa Haa Gone Out ' Of Business. The last mill—the last firm—that had a part in feeding the Colonial urmjes lias just discontinued busi ness, ending the career of what is probably the oldest corporation in this country that has been conduct ed continuously by ( the same family. The Lea Milling company of Wil; mingtom Pel.,- co-operated clftsely with Washington, who considered the mills of such strategic impor tance that he ordered the owners to dismantle the burrs and hide the upper stones from the British army. So these great stones, weighing more than a ton each, were carried in ox carts to remote places, out of reach of the Hessians, and buried. Due to the good memory of a Continental officer, one of these was found later, but the other still lies hidden. It was at the Brandywine mills that flour and grain reached the highest figure for which they were ever sold in the United States. Old records in possession of the Lea family show that $24 a bushel was paid for wheat, and that between 300 and 400 barrels of flour brought the gross sum of $21,000. This hap pened in 1780. FOUND SENSATION IN PLANTS Discoveries Made by Professor Boss Throw New Light on Matter* In teresting to Scientists. That plants respond like human beings to the effects of cold, chloro form and alcohol is the discovery of Professor Bose, the famous Indian natural scientist, whos* invention for recording life movement in plants has been, widely discussed the world over.-* According to the professor, plants are very sensitive. lie was surprised to find one day, by means of his re corder, a sudden depression in the plant he was studying, which proved to be due to a small cloud passing over the sun, .of which he himself had not even been constious. Plants fall asleep like human be ings. They do not merely fold their leaves, but they actually Income un conscious'. This Professor Bose has proven by the varying response of a plant during 34 hours to an electric current. At first it answered vigor ously, then its response became en feebled, and finally, it did not an swer at all, between 6 p. m. and 9 p. m. WEIGHTING FARM TRACTORS. When a f#rm tractor needs addi tional weight, logs and stones are generally piled on the frame. A more orderly provision is made by a new machine, which stores sand or watt* ballast in its hollow wheels. The two main drive-wheels and the large idlers will hold a good many hundred pounds of, extra weight Instead of being rigidly connected to the frame, the large idler wheels are hung on spiral springs inclosed in iron cylinders. The tractor has no differential, alid is steered with planetary gearing, which throws all the power onto one tread or the other.—Popular Mechanics Magar sine. EXEMPLIFICATION. A young officer, somewhat affected in style, was explaining to his men what happened to a shell after it left the gun. The comedian of the com pany could not refrain from mak ing remarks sotto voce, much to the amusement of his companions. Officer—The shell, on leaving the gun, owing to the bore, goes round and round. « Voice—The mulberry bush. Officer—After its momentum it expended gravity draws it to earth, otherwise it would keep on for evah and evah.' Voice—Amen! SO CONSISTENT.
