Make Credit a Matter ol Business.
In South Carolina a very re
speotable element of the farmers
thought the repeal of the lien law
would cure this evil of indiscrim
inate credit. I was never one of
them, because I have always be
lieved that a man had an inalien
able right to mortgage anything
that he pleased. I may be wrong,
but I see no remedy except the
repeal of the criminal statutes
wuion, in so many instances, are
all that give value to a mortgage.
Then and not till then will credit
De a master oi onaraccer. it is a
common saying among certain
business men: "I would rather
have a second mortgage," or "do
not care how many mortgages he

as that attitude is enoouraged by
statutes and laws, just so long
will it ba impossible to reform

wrote to me today asking what
would be the difference between

burning them. In a heavy growth
of peavines he will have organ 10
nitrogen enough to be as valuable
as a ton an acre of a fertilizer with

would be worth $10 to $12 an acre.

He would lose this in the burning,
and would lose the humus-making
material, and would have left only
the potash and lime that were in

RELATION OF SOUTHERN RAIL
WAY COMPANY TO NORTH,
CAROLINA.
FREIGHT RATES DISCUSSED
President of Southern Railway Com
pany Quest of Goldeboro Chamber
of' Commerce at First Annual
. Banquet
Goldsboro, N. C President Flnley,
ot the Southern Railway Company,
who was one of the speakers at a
banquet siren Friday evening by the
Goldsboro Chamber of Commerce,
speke-on "The State of North Caro-
Haa," with special reference to the
relations he Southern Railway
Company to. the State and what the
management of that Company is en
deavoring to do for the State.
Mr. Finley said that he proposed to
peak In the profound, conviction thai
the interests of the State will best be
promoted by policies that are best for
the Interests of the people and for
the Interests of the railways: He
aid:
"A great deal has recently been
aid on the subject of the Vir
ginia Cities rates from the West
It la most important to have i a
dear understanding regarding the
conditions that have led to the
eslabllshment of the Virginia
Cities rates. I shall refer to this
matter only so far as may be nec
essary to make clear the respon
sibility for the establishment of
those rates."
Mr. Flnley pointed out that, prior
to the time when the roads operating
through North Carolina began to com1
pete for Virginia Cities business, the
rates on that business had been estab
lished by lines which did not touch
North Carolina. He showed that the
roads making these rates traversed
.mora densely populated regions and
have a greater density of . traffic than
om nnea in me ouiii- ana .eaia:
' Tha SmA. tf mr i
operating through Nor-Caxtm
have competed for the Virginia
Cities business at the rates estab
lished by these other companies,
out at a margin of profit at which
they could- not afford to carry all
of their business, does not, in any
way, make them responsible for
the Virginia Cities rates.
"It is now well known, how
ever, that conferences have been
to progress between representa
tives of the State of North. Caro
lina and the railways in an effort
to reach an understanding on
questions as to the effect of the
Virginia Cities rates on points in
North Carolina. The railways, in
deference to the sentiment of the
people of the State on the sub
ject and not because they consid
er the carrying of such business
at present tariff rates economi
cally unsound, have offered, in
connection with a proposed ad
justment now in process of being
worked out between the State and
the railways, to withdraw from
the business from the "West to
the Virginia Cities through North
Carolina. .It is also proposed that
the effect of the Virginia Cities
rates on points in North Carolina
that) be considered in conference
m an effort to reach an agree
ment as to reasonable adjust
ments which may be put into effect
through an order of the Inter
State Commerce Commission. I
will pot burden yon this evening
with . other features of the con
ferences between the State and
the railways. It Is my most earn
est hope that the negotiations,
thus entered upon, may result in
removing every ground of con
troversy between the people of
North Carolina and the railways
on this subject
"It would, I believe, be most un
fortunate if the people of any
State and the railways, which are
so important to their progress and
development, should become in
volved in oentroversy on ques
tions of railway charges. Much
the better plan, in my opinion, is
that of meeting in conference. In
such a conference all matters at
Issue should, in a spirit of fair
ness on both sides, be discussed
In all their economic relations
and every effort should be made
to arrive at an amicable agree
ment that will work substantial
justice. I believe that if after
fall and free conference in which
an facts and arguments present
ed shall have been considered in
a spirit of reciprocal fairness, any
questions remain as to which
agreements can not be reached,
they should be submitted to those
tribunals which have been con
stituted by the law of the land
for their adjudication."
States Great Pronree.
Referring to the dependence of pro
duction upon highways to market, Mr.
Flnley said it was not a mere accident
4hat the progress of North Carolina
in recent years "had been co-incident
witk the development of more effi-
viewing the splendid achievecaents f

summed up the agrieulttirai progress
of the State by showing, that the total
value of farm prosperity In, the State
Increased from $233,834,693 in ftof'tb
1537.716,210 in 1910, an increase, of
(303,881,517 or 138 per cent, as com
pared with an increase of 100.1 iper
cent for all of the other States JBfven
more noteworthy were , the statlajtlcs
of manufacturing . showing a gala in
the value of manufactured productji in
North Carolina from $85,274,083; in
1899 . to $216,656,055 In 1909. an in
crease of $131,381,972, or 154 per cent,
is compared with 80.7 per cent fo all
ot the other States, every manufactur
ing industry in the State, with j the
single exception of turpentine and ros
in, showing increases ranging from 56
per cent for men's clothing to 459(' per
sent for, boots and shoes and 463 per
cent for mattresses and spring beds.
He drew the conclusion from the sta
tistics of agriculture and manufactur
ing that economic conditions in North
Carolina are exceptionally favorable
to progress and . development. As
showing that the progress of tose
parts of the State served by Southern
Railway lines compares most favor
ably with other parts of the State,
Mr. Finley pointed out that. In ' the
twenty-year census period from 1890
to 1910, covering the first sixteen
years of the corporate existence of
the Southern Railway Company, eight
een North Carolina cities with a bop
ulation of 2,500 or more In 1910 had
shown a growth of more than SO j per
cent, these cities being Asheville,
with 83.3 per cent increase; Hichjory,
83.6 per cent; Statesville, 98.4 per
cent; Concord, 100.8 per cent; Winston-Salem,
111.6 per cent; Mount Airy,
117.4 per cent; Shelby, 124.3. per cent;
Hendersonville, 131.7 per cent; fcjra
ham, 151.7 per cent; Burlington, 180.2
per cent; Lexington, 189 per cfent;
Charlotte, 194.3 per cent; Mooresville,
283.7 per cent; Greensboro, $19.2 per
cent; Gastonia, 457.5 per cent'; Thorn
asville, 557.1 per cent; High Point,
where the increase could not be' ex
pressed in percentage for the reason
that the population which had grown
to 9,525 in 1910, was so small In l890
that it was not returned separately by
the census; and Salisbury, coiabped
with Spencer and East Spencer, su
burbs which owe their existence to
the shops of the Southern Railway,
showedan increase of 144.4 per cent
- Speaking of the helpfulness of , the
in which it is contributing lo ini
velopment of North Carolina is
through its large expenditures in the
State, its payments within North Car
olina on account of wages and taxes
alone being each year in excess of the
total amount of freight revenue col
lected within the Stats.
Mr. Finley said that the Company's
helpful co-operation is available' for
every community in the State. He
told of the organisation and activities
of the Greater Western North Caro
lina Association, and said ' the Com
pany would be glad to participate ta
a State-wide movement of the .sum
sort if carried on under the auspices
of the State or through a responsible
organization similar to that in West
ern North Carolina. He said that, in
addition to an agent of the Land and
Industrial Department located in the
State and the representation of the
Department of Farm Improvement
Work by an Assistant Manager at
Charlotte and Field Agents at Greens
boro and Asheville, North Carolina
shares with the other States travers
ed by its lines in the services of the
Company's Dairy Agents and Live
Stock Agents. Under a scholarship
provision made by the Company,
three North Carolina boys are receiv
ing the benefits of the full four-year
agricultural course in the North Caro
lina Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege. Telling of the recent appoint
ment by the Southern Railway and
associated companies of four Market
Agents to assist in the successful mar
keting of agricultural and horticultur
al products from territory along their
lines, Mr. Finley said that one of the
first concrete propositions undertaken
by these agents was that of siding
in the effort to find the most advan
tageous markets for 60,000 cans of to
matoes put up by the Girls' Tomato
Clubs of North Carolina.
Southern Not In Polities.
.In conclusion, Mr. Finley said:
"The Southern Railway Com
pany does not participate in the
politics of North Carolina or of
any other State traversed by its
lines. There was a time when
support by the railways of policies
deemed essential to the preser
vation of our civilisation was
urged upon them as a patriotic
duty. I think we may aU rejoice
in the awakening of public con
science and the elevation of pubHo
standards that would condemn any
return to those conditions. In ab
staining from political activity in
the State ,the' Company has not
surrendered any of the fundamen
tal political rights to which It is
entitled in as full measure as any
other business enterprise or any
Individual citizens. These rights
include the sacred right of peti
tion the right to be heard in ar
gument and protest before legis
lative bodies, the courts of the
land and administrative tribunals.
They include the right to make
such a presentation of facts be

ECONOMY IN DAIRY.
The problems of dairying are not at
aU mysterious or difficult of solution.
t is a question of obtaining a cow
that will give the most milk for the
eed consumed, and In supplying that
cow with the feed which wEl make
milk. These, together with good cars,
as care is ordinarily understood by
the man who is successful in handllnc
Hvs steek, win make the dairy herd
profitable and highly successful.
QOOD DAIRY FARMER.
A good dairy farmer. has been de
soribed as M a good general farmer
plus the love of cows." This is a
good definition because the man who
doss not have a fondness for patiafae
tion in caring for them seldom turns
out to be a very capable and prosper
