WE WELCOME YOU
Of the S200.000.000 appropriated by
Congress, North Carolina was ap
portioned $6,000,000. The apportion
ment was based on area and dodu-
lation. Texas got th largest share
of the money with somewhat more
than $16,000,000. New York was
second and Pennsylvania third. Un
der the provisions of the act, each
state was required to utilize not less
than three-fourths of the apportion
ment by the end of the fiscal year cf
1920, of unused funds would be re
turned to the national treasury.
North Carolina has gone further
than that several months ago and this
week passed thp total amount of the
appropriation. Some of the other
States have yet a large amount of
money not set aside for projects ac
cepted, and there is a possibility that
there may be some of the original
fund returned to the treasury to be
re-apportioned among the states that
will use it. This is yet problematical,
and not sufficiently assured to jus
tify the approval of further projects
until it is definitely determined.

"The results from Tanlac must be
permanent, for it has been four
months since I took my last dose and
I feel as well now as I did then, and
I think I would be ungrateful not
to tell others what a wonderful med

The Fullness of Our
.Day...
"When every farmer in the South shall eat bread from his own
fields and meat from his own pastures and disturbed by no credit
or, and enslaved by no debt, shall si amid his teeming gardens,
and orchards, and vineyards, and da ries, and barnyards, pitching
his crops in his own wisdom and growing them in independence,
making cotton his clean surplus, and selling it in his own time, and
in his chosen market, and not at master's bidding getting his pay
in cash and not in a receipted mortgage that discbarges his debt,
but does not restore his freedom then shall be breaking the full
ness of our day." HENRY W. GRADY, 1888
We know of no better ideal for our friends to strive for than to at
tain the position expressed in this great hope of Henry W Grady. To
our friends we offer help to aid them to establish their business on
a cash basis: We have a new plan for our Farmers for 1920 and
ask that they call in and talk over this plan with us.
