Everything that has ever hap pened in history has happened be cause a large ii umber of men kicked . If you are ever tempted to let a government reform itsolf, look back in the pages of history and find a government that reformed itself. While you ar walking around with your hands in your pockets, whistling, thinking the world is going on as usual, there is a lit- tie group oi gentlemen in some room, somewhere, putting up job ou you. 1 be JMew Hanover grand jury which jhas just adjourned seems to have been composed of men men who see and hear things and take cognisance of them as the law directs. When those com posing it signed up their repcr the stereotyped phrase that -"they passed on all matters coining be fore them," meant what it said and more. They did not sit down and wait for things to come be fore them. They sot busy and drew bills for about sixty viola tors ox tne prohibition . law and "turned up" an alleged fish trust. Certain parties of Wil mington had formed an agree ment that would force up the price offish and put money in their pockets, so the grand jury now has them on the docket to show cause why. We need some more of this kind of grand juries. Necessity of Organic Matter In the Soil or Greea Uaourlng. We have now attempted to ex plain the1 phenomenon called "souring of the eoil" and to point ou & practioaDie remedy, name ly': roll the green manuring crop ; disc it a number of times in the opposite direction to the rolling while yet green and Bucculent in order to cut it into ' small bits ; plow it under; diso it once or twice after plowing, depending on the amount of material on tne land; with the diso set at a slight angle in order to pulverize and mix the cat up vegetable matter with the whole soil stratum ; and allow the land to settle a few weeks and receive one or mere good rains. We shall now take up in suc cession and discuss the value of a number of humus forming mite rials, other than animal manures, and then point out methods of handling them in connection with different orop3. In ft previous chapter we gave the average chemical analysis of a large number of samples of green rye in whioh we found, this imaterial to contain 10 lbs. of nitrogen, 6 Its. of phosphate, and It lbs, of potash per ton. All of these oonstituonts are taken from the soil by the roots, built into the tissues f the plant and given out again to a succeeding crop when the rye decays. A crop of green rye weighing sight tons to the acre is easily jrewn on the average farm in N. C. This a mount of green rye in t rporated With the first ten i nones of a tea acre field would f irriih to the soil of this field, in a x i lily available form, 800 lbs. c : jtrogen 400 lbs. of phosphate s .d 1180 lbs. of potash, Tblj is as much nitrogen as ,? julJ I e furnish ad l y 20 tons, of a a 8-2-S fertilize i r 100 loads of fresh cow manure. The phos phate in this amount of green i tuff is equal to that contained in i tons of au 8 2- fertilizer or in 200 tone, cr loads, cf fresh horse manure. The potash contained j this uiatenal U equal to that found in 28 ton of an 8-3-2 ferti liser or in 160 tns of fresh horse manure. Suras? sot rye to seed the ten acres will cost around $10, whereas, it would cost $75 to haul and sprtad . ie 150 tone of stable manure. . In the above we have mention ed merely thb plant food consti tuents rendered available by the rye and have not taken into ao oount the ast amount of humus for holding mo;8tnre and improv ing the texture of the soil. Be sure to sow qn unities of rye this fall for pi w.ag under next spring t etc re planting. Next week we expect to discuss the use of wheat straw ai 1 green 'corn ad manure. Bulletin by N. O.

Smith was shot and instantly killed on tie streets of Lilesville Sunday afternoon. by T. J. Flake his first cousin, who was drinking. Smith had just re turned from a drive to Blewett's Falls, driving a balky hoi which stopped in the streets near the square. Flake came up and told Smith he could make the hcrse go and proceeded to get in the buggy. Smith told him, if he Flake, ' was going to drive, he, Smith, would get out, and he left the buggy. Flake, taking excep tion at his cousin's actions, fol lowed him from the vehicle. Drawing a pistol, he shot at Smith and as the latter ran around the postoffioe building Flake contin ued to shoot four shots, two of nrhinh trr tr atfarnt. tha l.at nftaa. ing through his neck, ately above the shoulders, from whioh death followed in fifteen minutes. In their preparation for a big haul during the Hey wood county fair, whioh is in progress this week, some of the blind tigers of Waynesville reoeived a severe jolt when seven barrels of rye whiskey were seized on Maio street Satuiday night shortly be tore midnight, tne police au thorities had been on the lookout for several days on the suspicion that a certain prominent and no torious I Hud tiger of Asheville would rend n to his "pals" here a fupplyfsxjthe fair. The negro drifW was arrested and the team sod whiskey were seized. Other arrests are expected. Wilmington, Sept. 29. The grand jury at Wilmingoh Friday brought 11 additional indictments against persons in the city for vi olating the prohibition law, mak ing a total of 60, including those previously brought in. Thirty -six out of the 60 have gone to sheriff's office and arranged bond in the sum of $500 each for ap pearance at the next term of court. Others were notified of the charges against them and cit ed to be at the sheriff's office for the purpose of arranging bail. Praotically all those . indicted are men of considerable means and many friends have had no trouble in giving bond, and the officers do not fear they will leave the oity without arranging bond. There are some, however, who are regarded as "little fel lows" and it is believed that the report as to the wholesale indict ments has caused them to make a hasty departure as officers have failed to locate them. While nearly all the "malt" dealers have been indicted, the olaoes appear to be doing as much busi ness as formerly. HiJlsborj. Sept. 29 A law and order league of sixtv-six w asT members was formed in a meeting at the court house in Hills bor last wees:. Tne membership is composed of the leading citizens of the town and community and is expeoted to prove an effeotive protest against lawlessness in Orangs county. The house of Howell Swann, near Weaverville, was struck by lightning Saturday night and Mr. Swann and his family narrowly escaped serious injury. One of Mr. Swann's arms was singed and his wife and baby were knooked down. When the bolt struck. Mr. Swnnn was lying in bed, with his, arm on the sewing machine, whioh was near the bed. His wife was walking toward the bed and fell to the floor. Other than the shook, they were not hurt, but Mr. Swann complains of a stiffness in his arm. One of his children, asleep in bed, was not awakened. Mr. Swann stated that the flash was blinding and he thought the whole house was on fire. . Late Saturday afternoon the premises of B. W. Kerr, in the heart of Mooresville, were liters ally covered with honey bees, a tray swarm having decided to take up with him. Mr. Kerr got busy and made a hive in whioh to catoh them, but instead the bees sought the well shed. They were left there. Sunday morning at quite an early hour Mr, Kerr went out to look for his bees but they were gone. He sought to draw a buoket of water, but when the vessel reached the top of the curbing, he found that he had a bucks full of bees, the little i feingi having gone down into the buoket and the well, f ; " fTlvrla YlriiMaM wVi-k arinfc and in. stantly killed Hank Morse, his ri val, at Rockingham, Thursday night, teems ; to - be improveing and expresses no regret over -the affair, Morse had a marriage license in his pooket and intended to marry the girl, Beulah Stone, that night, and Ohilders says she had promised to marry him Mon day night. After shooting Morse Ghilders shot himself through the lung and was expeoted to die but chances of his reoovery now seem good. At an important meeting of the chamber of commerce of Eliza beth Oity, last week, Secretary Lamb made a raport on the Beok ford-Gatesyille extension and read several communications bearing on it. The Gatesville people and others of Gates county . are enthu tend the Norfolk Southern Rail road from Beckford Junotion to Gatesville and are using every in fluence to bring about the change.

No. 1) prevented a dreadful tragedy and saved two lives. Dootors had said her frightful oough was a ''consumption" oough and could do little to help her After many remedies failed, her aunt urged her to take Dr. King's New Disoovery.

About seven o'clock this morn ing the traok-walker on the W. N. C. division of the Southern Rail way came across the body of a young man, lying near the traoks, nine miles from Salisbury. He was dead and had been there for eight or ten hours . The find was reported and the ooroner was sent for. Whether a jury was sum moned and arrived at a oorreot so lution of the tragedy, we did cot learn. Most likely there was lit tle evidence on the spot of muoh value. A considerable hole w s knooked in his forehead, his body was bruised in various places and his pockets were turned out and empty. Whether he fell off, jump ed off or was knocked off is the point of primary importance when one attempts to arrive at the true cause of his death. The facts in the oase may never be learned. The remains were brought to Salisbury on passenger train No. 12 and taken to the Summeriett undertaking parlors and prepared for interment While here the body was viewed by soores of peo ple and it was readily identified as that of Arthur Owen, better known at Bill', son of W. H Ow. en, a resident of Chestnut Hill, Bill was considered a fairly good boy, he was hardly more than 20, was industrious and. generally liked by those who knew him. He, however, like the rest of humani ty, was not faultless. He left Sal. isbury last night, on No. 85, in bad company, and some think; he met with fool play. - SOUE OF ROWAM'S OLDEST CITIZENS.
