Why not have a meeting of tbe
chamber of commerce.
The chamber of commerce, can do
a lot tor Loulsburg1, It It will only get
to work.
?Not dead, but sleepth" will easily
apply to the Loulsburg chamber of
commerce.
The press reports say Huerta has
made formal announcement of his in
tentions to resign.
There are still a few sections in
the county that have not been blessed
with the rains we have.
The battle cry In the light against
disease is cleanliness. Clean things
are safe. Dirty things are dangerous
_ In the fight against most, 11 not all,
of the ills of life, It Is prevention,
rather than cure, that counts the most
The illustrated lectures at the
Methodist church, are of a high
educative order and well worth the
time to go to see.
If the money spent for whiskey
could be devoted to public health
work,' our dreams of a non-disease
land would soon be realised.
The Medical Depository report
shows sale of ?919.00 for the month
on May, with a gross profit of $80.00
and the prices are above these char
ged at the dispensary.
What a difference it would make In
the appearence of Loulsburg, if the
merchants would display their goods
inside their stores. Instead of on the
sidewalks.
Now that the fiscal year has ended
why toot lets have an annual state
ment from the town. The officials
have been promising these and we see
no better time than now.
When the Medical Depository was
first established It was a very strange
occnrance for the Bales to run over
200 per month. Now it runs around
)1.000,#Q quite a difference isnt It
There was evidently a lot of sick
ness In the county during the month
of April, if the report ot the Medical
depository, is a true indication. Ab
out 1000 precrlptions were filed dur
ing that month.
The service relative to health and
sanitation is secured from Chicago,
and are recognized the best made.
The people of Loulsburg should go
out. The program for next week will
be found In another column.
Supt. Beck informs us that from
now on the llg|>t plant will give a
twenty-four hqur service, with the
exception of during heavy electric
storms, through which the service
will be discontinued, until after the
Installation of the new plant. ?
Hon. H. E. Norrlsf was nominated
to succeed himself as solicitor of this
district on last week without opposi
tion. He is a fine man and a splendid
official, and our people are to be con
gratulated upon the selection.
The law and order league seems to
be interested in the present amount
of whiskey sales In Loulsburg. It
Is nothing but Tight that some one
tfioald feel enough interest in the
enforcement of laws to see that the
tew te complied with, not only In one
bat ?11 instances.
,
The people of Dunn's township are
to be congratulated upon the effort
th?y are making to tat a good roads
system. This will do mor? towards
tha Improvement of the towaahlp than
aajrthing else at present.
Sapt. R. 0. Beck informs us that
tha reason why the water waa so mud
dy on Taeada? waa dua to? new man

to stand together. When was that

with a republican coa
and he had never dared to do
the things that Wtlsoc bad done. He
himself had admitted that he nad
allowed the steel corporation to ab
sorb its only competitor. 14 Wilson
were to dp such a thing as that there
would be fifty men in eoagress who
would demand his Impeachment
Roosevelt waa always preaching a
square deal and Wilson was always
practicing it.
On the subject of patronage, Mr.
Pou said that no one bad ever taught
him how to make two'apples out of
one, but he always tried to respond
to what he conceived t?-be the pre
vailing sentiment of the people.
He expressed himself a^apprccia
tlve of the unanlmoaa action of four
of the counties of?\lh? district and
the unanimous action ot the conven
tion.
Members of tbe executive com
mittee were named as follows:
Wake, Chas. V. Harris, J. P.
Bunn; Chatham. S pence Taylor;
Franklin, J, R. Collie; Vance H. T.'
Powell; 'Johnston, N. A. CJgerton.
Save Clover Seed.
There Is going to be a big demand
for crimson clover seed {n North Car
olina this season. This may result
in high prices. Whether It does or
not, home-saved seed are the cheap
est, surest and best, sin?e the husk
seems to hold moisture when plan
ted, thereby reducing the danger of
failure to get a stand. Moreover,
when a farmer alreacy has seed, he
la more likely to plant them than he
Is to buy seed to plant.
An average acre ot crimson clover
la easily worth tea dollars whether
turned under, grazed, or cat ifor hay.
Then It prevents washing and leach
ing and in any case adds organic mat
ter to the soil something which pract
ically all our lands are greatly de
scent in. ?
There are several practical meth
ods of saving clover seed. One way
Is to attach a large sheet to. the cut
ter bar and have a boy walk behind
holding it until filled and then dump
ing the clover in piles. This prevents
much shatterng ot seed. The piles
-are trailed out on sheets and the seed
seperated. Another way Is to haul to
a tight floored room, when well mat
ured, and stack there until some rainy
day o rother convelnent time, then by
forking down and removing the clo
ver, the seed wll be found on the floor.
If the clover is very dry and is
hauled in a tight wagon body, with
some tramping much of tba seed will
shatter and may be recovered on the
floor W the body. There are other
ways of saving clover seed. . These
will suggest themselves to the thou
ghtful farmer who is interested in
having cover crops and who wants
the cheapest and best seed possible.
All farmers who have clover should
make an effort to save much seed
from it.
Very trtly yours,
C.R. Hudson.
