EQ0IPMENT LARGELY INCREASED
Greensfcoro Electric company Practically
Doubling Its Capacity Work Well
Under Way., -
The Greensboro Electric Company
has undertaken improvements which
will mean that wirhln a very short
time it will have the best single track
railway system in the South. " The
company has bought a 500-horse power
engine, a Westinghouse street railway
machine, and they have already ar
rived and are being installed at the
power house by a large force of work
men, who will be kept at work night
and day, and the additional equipment
will be in place and ready for service
by the morning of July 1st.
The installation of this additional
equipment will represent the expendi
ture of thousands of dollars and the
capacity will be more than doubled.
Further than this the company will
give its entire power plant a general
and complete overhauling and every
thing will be put in duplicate, so that
in case of a breakdown the relay ma
chinery can be pressed into service
upon a moment's notice, causing no
loss of time for the street cars or for the
patrons of tb.e company. r
This improvement would have been
made months ago but for the fact that
the Greensboro Electric Company has
a signed contract with the Whitney
Power Company to furnish electric
power for Greensboro, and in this con
tract there is a heavy penalty if the

Marriage of Popular Young: Couple a
Charming: Social Event
The home of Mr. and Mrs. A. A.
Johnson, on Arlington street, was the
seene of a most beautiful wedding last
Wednesday night at 9 o'clock, when
their daughter, Mies Kate Paschal
Johnson, and Mr. Harry Winfield Sin
clair assumed the marital vows.
Just before the ceremony Mrs. J. G.
Brodnax, Jr., sang several selections,
accompanied on the piano by Miss
Sallie Embry, who played Mendel
ssohn's wedding march as the bridal
party entered the parlor, in which the
ceremony took place. Kev. Dr. J. L.
White came first and took his place
behind an improvised altar. The
bridegroom entered with his brother,
'Mr. James M. Sinclair, who acted as
best man. Next came the maid of
honor, Miss Fleida Johnson, the
bride's sister, attired in a gown of pink
and silk over tafleta, trimmed in prin
cess lace. She carried a bouquet of
sweet peas. The bride entered lean
ing upon the arm of her father,
who gave her away. She looked lovely No- 76. aud Corinthian Lodge, No. 542,
in her princess gown of ivory duchess A- F & A Al., held a joint meeting for
Washing or Eroding of Farm Lands.
One of the' most important agricul
tural problems that confronts the farm
er in the middle portion or Piedmont
sectiou of the state; and one that in
timately connected with successful
farming i is the constant ' washing or
erosion which takes place from bill
side farm lands. By far the larger
portion of the lands m this Piedmont
section of the state ai e hillside lands
and .thus subject to erosion. This is
one of the greatest drawbacks to suc
cessful farming for while'it is possible
for one to have a good and productive
farm on level lands, which is easily
keot up. it requires aman ormucn
greater capacity, to operate a farm pro-
11 1 ably under adverse conditions wmcn
Dievaii in the .South where, hillside
far mine is practiced. The extent of
erosion from the farm lands of the
Piedmont plateau region is indicated
bv the enormous amount of soil which
is yearly washed away in the muddy
rivers. It this section it amounts to
more than four million tons a year and
it has a value, based on the amount of
plant food and humus m it, of $2,000,
000. r .
A bulletin has been prepared by the
North Caiolina Geological and Eco
nomic Survey entitled Terracing of
Farm Lands, which discusses this ero
sion and the methods 'of lessening it.
It explains why certain soils erode
more easily than others and then
shows why lands in the Southern
states are so much more subject to en -eion
than lands in the Northeastern
states. The two most important rea
sons for this are: The heavy rainfall of
the Southern states which frequently
takes place in concentrated showers;
and second, the close texture of the
soils. The various cultural methods of
lessening erosion are also discussed
with special reference to lands used for
growing cotton, corn and tobacco and
this is followed with a description of
tbe different methods of terracing and
di&eitg lands, which are used, where
the cultural methods are inadequate.
There is a discussion of tbe kinds of
lands to which different forms of ter
races are adapted. . The hillside ditch,
which is in such common use, is re
garded as being of little value, since it
occupies much land without checking
erosion. The method of constructing
terraces is shown and also the value
and use of hillside and reversible disk
plows in relation to hillside farming.
In conclusion, the opinion- is ex
pressed that lands which are too steep
to be terraced should not be cleared but
should be kept in forest. Suggestions
are given respecting the best methods
of reclaiming badly washed land for
farm use as well as for planting out in
trees, which often seems the best
policy.
If any one desiriug suggestions and
assistance in regard to replanting such
washed lands in trees, will correspond
with the State Geologist or Forester,
Chapel Hill, N. C, such information
wnl be sent to them.
The census of 1880 gives more than a
million acres of waste land in the mid
of
which is washed farm lands.
A copy of this bulletin can be ob
tained by writing the State Geologist
at Chapel Hill and enclosing four cents
in stamps to coyer mailing charges. "
A VERY RICH MAN SAYS:
V "The American people are prodigal, and our extrava
gance will have to be paid by some one. People have taken
advantage of prosperity, siioh as ;has never been exelled in
this country, to be wasteful and extravagant. We are not
saving up for the rainy day, for the time of need." .
How Is It with you? Are you saving and creating a fund
which will work for you when you can no longer work for
yourself? Your common sense tells you that it is better to
SAVE YOUR MONEY NOW!

March, 27thf1903. ;
Mr. Bides, ; ' . , :
' Dear Sir: ;' . . - : ' .. . '
I ana thinking you would like to bear how I am getting along after
using the new remedy you and Mr. Yates so kindly had me to use.
After nearly four months of suffering with rheumatism and kidney
complaint, and everything done for me which only relieved for the time
being, I am now using the Band, which seemed to help me at once.
. At the time my feet, knees and hips were so swollen that I could not
walk a step. As soon as I put it on there was a heating' sensation all
over my system, and in one week I was surprised that the swelling was
going out, and I could sleep. In two weeks I could walk around the
room, the third week I could go where I pleased. I feel stiff in uiy
knees somewhat, but that is going out fast. You may think this is I
quick work, but it is nevertheless true., My family and neighbors will
testify the same. They all know I have suffered all winter, and I feel
very grateful to you both, for what this remedy has done for me, and
will recommend it to all suffering as I have.
Respectfully yours,
(Signed) A. D. V. LEIGH.
Why don't you profit by the experience of others?
Your family dootor is all right, and will do all he can
for you, but he oannot ourethat rheumatism.
I have oured hundreds of hopeless oases with my
wonderful Band, dozens of them right here in Greens
boro, and in Guilford oounty.
