McRae occurred here on Friday morn ing about 5 o'clock. When Mr. McRae retired the night before he was feeling about as well as usual complain? of only a head ache. His loud breathing justl before expiring awaked his young sob, who was sleeping with liim; he called his mother but when they reach his bedside he breathed his last. Dr. Kirk- patrick was called in at once but as stated above he died as soon as his wife and son reached his bedside. Mr. McRae was about 53 years of age and was one of Maxton 's most prominent citizens. He is survived by a wife, 4 daughters. one son and a brother. The funeral services were con ducted at the residence Saturday morning by Dr. H. G. Hill and the interment at Oakwood Ceme tery.

' Mr. and Mrs, J. A. Duke and their daughter, Miss Mabel, went to Lumberton today. The Kingsdale Lumber Co. seems to be enjoying the pros perity which is general through out the country. The mill is making good time and also some heavy shipments. More ship ments could be made if sufficient cars could be obtained- This seems to be the trouble every where now. We understand the turpentine plant here will soon begin opera ting on wood as well as utilizing the refuse from the saw mill. Additional machinery has been ordered and it is thought that a large business will be done in this line." The output is expected to be 2 or 3 barrels daily. I Kingsdale, N- C, Nov. 24th. President Moore Speaks to Cot ton Growers. President C. C. Moore, of the State Cotton Grower's Associa tion, gave a very interesting and profitable talk before a fairly large audience at the court house Friday morning. President Moore pointed out to the planters the strength they could have, providing the grow ers would to more extent be gov erned by the rules of the said association, but he found the North Carolina growers lacking in this respect, and furthermore were far behind the rest of the cotton States who supported their association and had been benefitted by doing the same. He also pointed out the- fatal mistake they hsld made in selling their cotton at 9 cents when they could have received 11 and 12 cents and the manufacturers were willing to pay the price given, but still they were going to take advantage of all cotton they could get at the 9 cents price, as they considered that a matter of business rather than speculation. President Moore says in such an instance he did not blame the manufacturers, but it was the fault of the grow er, asf they became scared-from the many newspaper quotations from Wall Street. Among his other remarks, he told how the British manufacturers had sent men all through the South to in vestigate for themselves as to what they could buy America for and to reduce the price and try to keep it at a standard of 9 cents, but the association, hold ing firm, had made them pay 10 cents, and perhaps could have gotten II, which rightly belonged to them. In conclusion, President Moore made an earnest appeal for the North Carolina growers to stand firm and make this organization stronger, fcor the good of them selves if for no other. Work on National Mill Proatfess lng. The National Cotton Mill about two miles from Lumberton, is being rapidly completed and ef forts are being made to have the same ready by the beginning of the new year. It is a large one story brick building and will contain all the modern and up-to-date machinery and when put in operation will be another great facility to our city. At present the work consists of installing the machinery and finishing the wood work on the inside. We learn the operators are now buying their cotton to gin with and several bales are now on the grounds. Perhaps the best features of the new plant is the light and ventilation system. The sky lights are so arranged that there will be equal rjays in all parts of the spinning room, while the woodwork of the interior is paint ed a dull white, so the sun will glitter on the eves of the work ers. The exceedingly large win dows are placed so that ventila tion can come from any side of the building, besides the forced draught that can be gotten through the sky lights. . When the new mill is in run ning order we will have another valuable addition to our city, which will make it grow. In connection with tne new enter prise there are several new and comfortable dwelling houses for the employes, besides a first-class merchandise store. Air. Carlyle Appointed Agent. Mr. J. E. Carlyle has beea ap pointed by the Cotton Associ ation to go into the field and collect the bale tax, and solicit funds from every person willing to contribute for the purpose of putting the association in shape to work. The association is ex pecting to see cotton go up higher and ask the farmers not to rush their cotton on the market too fast- A few bales about March will mean money and when you see Carlyle coming you may know what he is after. We want this money and we need it and must have it. All the other States and counties are doing their part and we must do our part and we have all reason to believe we will get it' when we go after it. Yours Truly, Geo. B. McLeod, ) W. S.
