Parkton. April 11 Private Carl
Johnson, who has enjoyed a ten-days'
furlough, left yesterday for Golds
boro, the present headquarters of
his company.
Perhaps never before in the his
tory of our town was there so much
interest manifested as was Saturdav
.light i:. a mass marine- held in the
Perry building by the citizens of our
town ant surrounding community.
The meeting was cal td to order by
Dr. D. S. Currie, atcing chairman,
C. D. Williamson secretary. Chair
man Currie made a brief and logical
talk in regard to the war situation
with Germany which is now existing
and declaring that as loyal patriotic
citizens we should rally to the sup
port of President Wilson and go to
the full limit in carrying on tne war
with Germany. Speeches were made
bv other citizens of our town pledg
ing their support to our President.
Rev. W. M. Miller, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, in his address
said that he was now ready to offer
his services in defense of his country
and we have been advised he has
forwarded his application to the navy.
The building Saturday night was tax
ed to its limit, about one hundred, in
cluding the boys, and it was thought
"best to organize a home guard for
the protection of our town and com
munity, with the following officers:
J. A. Barlow, former lieutenant of
Co. L, Lumber Bridge, captain; P.
H. Fisher, 1st Lieut; I. C. Hall, 2nd
Lieut. The meeting was then turned
over to Capt. Barlow, who announced
that the company would meet Monday
night, at which time some drilling
would be done; and at the meeting
Monday night the crowd was still
larger than Saturday night. The
meeting was called to order at 8:30
and the minutes of Saturday night
were read, corrected and approved.
Capt. Barlow is a man of much mil
No waste by cows
or in handling
Mr. J. L. Acree; Dothan; Ala.; says that he would use Buckeye Hulls
at the same price as old style hulls because Buckeye Hulls are
easier to handle, cleaner, and because cows do not waste them as
they do old style hulls. He believes that at least a third of the
old style hulls are wasted by the cows and in handling.

when wet, mix so thoroughly and uniformly with the other forage
that the cows can't nose them aside. Being sacked, they keep
clean in the barn. Being compact, concentrated, solid roughage,
it is easy to measure them out accurately and mix them properly
with the other feed. And yet with all these advantages, Buckeye
Hulls sell for several dollars per ton less than old style hulls.
To secure the best results and to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hulls
thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It is easy to do this by
wetting them down night and morning for the neit feeding. If at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to
feed the hulls dry, use only half as much by bulk as of old style hulls.
Book of Mixed Feeds Free
Gives the right formula for every combination of feeds used in the South. Tells
how much to feed for maintenance, for milk, for fattening, for work. Describes
Buckeye Hulls and gives directions for using them properly. Send for your
copy to nearest mill.

Sunday morning were exceedingly

small congregation, as it was held at
the Sunday school hour. The reel

very best. Prof. H. W. Doubd, prin
cipal of the high school, made a splen

enjoyed. Rev. W. M. Miller filled
his regular appointment at the Pres
byterian church to a large congrega
a reputation that will never die. He
left Lumberton Friday night for his
home in Teague, Ky., to spend a few
days, thence to Berea, Kentucky's
greatest school. Our sincerest wish
es goes with him for his greatest suc
cess. Apple trees are very late about
blooming this year. Folks tell U3
that the late bloom is a sign of a big
crop.
People are sowing cotton, some are
setting out tobacco, planting corn, soy
beans and every kind of a thing to
eat. Even if Irish potatoes wer sky
high, more patches were planted than
ever, borne hogs, a cow, a few chick
ens, plenty of garden sass and you

Cascarets work while you sleep;

gases; take the excess bile from the
liver and carry out of the system
all the constipated waste matter and
