Altered as second-class matter Jan. . :ttth. 1905, at the post office at Salis tbwry, N. 0., wider the act of Congress V 'of March 8rdrlS5V Telephone No. 458. Salisbury, N. C. Deo 28th, 1910 The starotyped phrase: "Do "your Christmas shopping early," can now take a well deserved rest to the great delight of the public. The Watchman has abso lately no time for the little . narrow-minded creature that thinks everything in a news- paper snoma Harmonize witn;iH the first place it appeals to his animal instincts. To soar over two miles high iu the air with machinery is a feat that means something. It is somtthing that man has never done before and we think it is something ht will not dp again toon. Arch Hozsey is h to whom the honor of this magifictnt achievement belongs. Judging by the number of mur ders and serious drunken rows re ported throughout the State dur ing the last few days, can any sane person Jonger doubt the ne cessity of more stringent prohibi tion laws against the whiskey traflo and the national protection of those we have? It is stated on what some would call good authoiity that the Southern Railway Company will extend the Yad kin road to Wadesboro. This is a splendid scheme and may it speedily materialize. This should have been done t wen' ty years ago. Another great outrage has ben committed in Lcs Abgeles, Cal., which is attributed to organized labor. If these things prove to be true they will not redowu to the beaefit of the union. Such a course is a great mistake and can not be considered anything less than anarchy. The great mas a of of law abiding Americans citizens, jinion &nd non union alise, do not approve of such methods. Let's not forget that equal rights be!ongjto all, law and order are the bulwarks of peace, ths pur suit of happiness, thrift, enter prise, ability and perseverance, and the only protection we havo for the successes achieved, fami lies, homes and properties . WHICH BACHELOR OUT THIS? HANDS If you would shun the divorce courts and live happy, contented, peaceful livee, you will take our advice, girls, and marry only for love and then work for your r.ches. This advice may be" a hjtle stale, it is true, but if you wish to live the ideal life you ill find this the best course to pursue. Salisbury Post. Our neighbor, The Post, iB con ducted exclusively by old bache lors, soma almost antiquated, so we are wondering from whence the inspiration to write such valuable advice, hence we call out the gentlemen : Mr, Rooshe, Mr. Brown, Mr. Isenhcur.

While on her way across the street to show a playmate a horn gotten from a Christmas tree, Odeli Row an, the 4-year-old daughter cf Mr, and Mrs. Newton Rowan, was instantly killed in front of her home . at Delgado ehoitly after 5 o'olock this afternoon by being struck by an automobile owned and driven by N. B. Ran kin, a banker f this city, who was returning with his wife and daughter and friend from Wrights ville sound. The front wheel of the automobile struck the child in the head, splitting it in twain, parts of the brain teing scattered htre and there for some distance. Most be a Catholic Society.

News and Obser ver. t New Year's Resolution For Southern Railroads.

The wcrk of the railroads in this di rection lias shown that many who iu years past, have moved from the southern to the western and northwestern states are anxious to again take up their residence in the South and aid in her de velopment. Even those who have bf-en most successful in their ntw farming, fruit and stock raising lnnr!a i m ftnn t.ViaFn ntnf-.oa Tlio go u as it hag beeQ exteud. i8 moSt significant from a praotical immigration standpoint. .?xpla-who already have a per- s jal interest in the South , and, tii rough them, great numbers vof p-opiy will be reached who would n t; ordinarily ever hear of the advantages of living in the S uathern States. But what is by fur the most important phase pf the movement lies i its value as a common -stand on which the railroads can unife in a co-operative campaign of advertising the South. It brings them into a c mnipn cause of resisting roads bingjpade on Southern popula tion by the railroads and land b jotners in the western states and Canada. Tins is a resolution for the new j -ar . hich should be taken and carried cut by all the railroads in the s-ctiou stated: Let them tjut aside $250,000 for advertising in publications of national circula tion; each line taking a share pro- prtioued to its mileage in ihe territory outlined. Further, if i tue railr ads will undeitake cimpr.igu of community adver-' Using on this seals, they will fiud that the people and business infcr sts in th various states will es pacta1 ty oooptrat with them in h :;k of flnding homes aud ?; r -rtunit-j- f'r deiiraLU immi sruL.tfi.

Railway managers' "aud all in telligent pi)pl in the; South are soavinced that there are opportn nities in these states for hundreds cf tbonsands of people, bul the oonvtion will avail nothing until the people we want aro con vinced, The railroads of Canada have just closed an advertising campaign which rwsulked in the briugiug in of 80,000 farmers to tkat country from Scotland. This required money and s considerable amount of work, but no one can deny that both were well justified by the results. Of all the immigrants that michv be secured none would be more welcome hj,n southerners returning home We hope this compaign will result in bringing! many of such wanderers back, and back to stay. Beginning if Longir Dajs. We have reached the winter eolstice. According to the old reliable Blum'a almanac, yesterday, the 22d, was the shortest day of the year, 9 hours and 32 minutes. According to the same authority, for several -iys prior thereto we had. 9 hours and 34 minutes between sunrise and sunset, and we wll have this same time until the 28th, when two more minutes will be added and the days will gradually lengthen. Did you ever : notice, though, that when the days begin to grow longer it! is noticeable at first only in the afternoons? The after noons lengthen but it is darker in the morning at 7 o' clock, say, than the when days ' were tapering to the shortest point. Speaking of Blum's almanac, that authority further announces that winter commences on the 22d. Most of us incline to the opinion that winter began some time ago.

United State Foreetry Service. An Investigation In the preservative teatmenttof fenceposts conducted bj the United States forest service In co operation with the University of Min Besots has recently been comploted ttfcare are many agricultural se- Uons Of that Btate where much nf, the hind ! unfeneed, and in &nch idealities it Is difficult to obtain good posts, since the only common trees are willow and cot- i teowood, . and these do not make dur able post In their natural condition. Rm ued for infornlation on the vbest method of preserving fenceposts in that region or elsewhere, therefore, ia Mgtd by the department of agrical tan. Much land now lying idle ia well adapted for pasturage were it fenced. Xt la evident that the securing of a durable and comparatively cheap post would give great impetus to the work of fencing and would result in the more intensive utilization of the land. It Is believed that creosotlng of the native woods will projlde such a post. Considerable data on the best treat ment fpr each of a number of different peclea was obtained by these experi ments, and the feasibility of creosot lng posts was clearly demonstrated. Detailed advice on the- Avrpyk will be given to all who request it of the for est service at Washington. As a result of the interest aroused b7 this work there has been formed in on locality an association of about treaty-five farmers for the purpose ofl in oiifiim their fenceposts. Through acfe ac organization the preservative treatments can be more cheaply ac empUabed than by individual farmers because of the saving in the initial cost of the apparatus and the cost of the ereoaote. If the plan proves feasi ble other associations will doubtless be formed. Early Onions. Onion sets should be planted as soon as the frost Is out of the ground. The .bulbs will stand frost without injury. If the ground was plowed iu the fall all that Is necessary is to harrow the ground over well, then work off and stick the onions in just dep enough to completely cover them with the tine earth. Set out in fifteen inch rows two laches apart in the row if the crop is to be worked with the hand cultiva tor and twenty Inches apart If the horse cultivator is to be used.

The bed piece, five and a half i laches leag, is cut out of a hard plank j two aad a half Inches thick, bolted at ' each end and in the middle to prevent splitting. The rear half la nine Inches j wide and the front half six Inches ! wlAs. The diggers are made of steel bars two and a half leches wide, hree quartera of an Inch thick and twenty four Inches long. They are fastened to the plank by a right angle turn and bolted. The two rear diggers are held irmly by a rod with nuts inside-and oot, the points being spread out so that the bed piece can easily drop Into the space when the ditch is two i feet or more in depth. The front d!-- I ger Is the same size, but set In the middle. All are held firmly by brace rods and sharpened like the flat end Of a pickax. A wheel is set under the front end to steady the movement and to braced backward. An adjustable draw iron 1 placed above, through which the rod may pass at any height cited to the depth of the ditch. The handles are also adjustable, rais lag them as the digger drops lower. THH CIOOER BQinPPED. In hard subsoils one will save the cost f this simple device In digging seven-ty-flye rods ofdltch.

The prevailing price of milk In Eng land is 8 cents n quart, the English quart being one and a quarter times the r'ze of our "measure. On the basis of the difference in the value of p .pienny in the two countries the price for an American quart in terms of our money would be about 13 cents. .. ' -The world standing of a nation ts "quite accurately measured -by the eco nomic status of Jts rural population the. Class" which tills its fields; and raises the products which sustain its life. It is oecaus of-this that a coun try like France Is more powerful than India or the United States than Rus sia. i Analysis shows that a quart of milk contains as much nourishment as a pound of veal or beef chuck, "nine ounces of round steak, two pounds of codfish or two pounds and five ounces of solid oysters. This would seem to ehow that the milk drinkers have some pretty good arguments to Justify their "practice. Thousands of tons of powdered milk are consumed yearly in "Boston, the growth in the business being accompa nied by a considerable falling off in tho consumption of natural mlik. What ever may be said of the powdered milk product, it cannot be upbraided with having been kept too near thepumn or diluted at the creek on the way to.tht" creamery. One of the recent introductions of new varieties of plant life by tho de partment of agrii-ulture has been a shipment of 140 tons of bamboo plants from Japan, which have been set out at tho federal plant experiment station at Chico. Cal. They are to be culti vated here and later distributed to other sections where conditions seem to bo favorable for their growth.

Lip-1-k u-r ni"f?a to the farm an imals. In the manufacture of cheese the reverse is the case, and this Is true whether It be a full cream or sklmmilk product. A breeder of blooded cattle whom we came across the other day in giv ing a description of a bunch of young bulls which he had for tsale said that with the pedipree of each animal will be given a certificate of health, signed by a veterinarian, stating that the ani mal ia free from tuberculosis Infection. This Is n sensible rlan and one that should be universally adopted by i breeders of full blooded stock, as they I more than the scrub seem to be sub- j ject to the disease. The most ffectlve blow can be dealt Canada thistles that may bo on the plnce If they are allowed to grow and get well Into blossi-m. but mowed down before any seeds' develop. This takes them off guard, as It were, the plant being engaged in a supreme ef fort to reproduce itself and the root systems being taxed to furnish the necessary plant food for the process, Any shoots appearing after the patch is mowed should bo dug out root and branch and burned.
