this city, a man who keeps in touch
with cotton producing , and ; u cotton

Jy what was being done this year' on
some farm lands in Wake, work that
sets an example to all who raise cot-
. . ton, or for. that matter any; other crop.
Returning to the city he came across
a newspaper article in line with what
his observation had '. shown, (and he
, . 'wrote to the editor of this paper of his
, observations -'and .conclusions.-. The
clipping ; he end osedV taken from f; the

' Miv Thompson,' though not Intended
for publication, has in It so much of
sober, common sense,' practical- adv(ce
that, it is - printed, and r the reader
, will find that Jt carries its pwn advlca
and comment 7ltvls: as follows:
. "After a drive In the country yes
terday, the enclosed clipping struck'
me with great force. I saw a field
of cotton of some , fifty acres that
promises to - make seventy-five bales
of cotton, t saw a patch, of a few
acres that will take five acres to make
one bale.
"The largest yields per ' acre
are found, not In the so-called rich
bottom lands of the Mississippi Delta, -cultivated
almost exclusively by ne
groes, but in ! the Atlantic States,
wherte intelligent cultivation and fer
tilization has resulted In large yields,
In many . cases as much as five hun
dred pounds of llntjper acre; in a few
as much as one thousand pounds of
lint per acre, and occasionally as
much as one thousand two hundred
pounds per acre, and in rare Instances
as much as two thousand pounds per
acre,
"As the average yield for the whole,
belt Is only about two hundred pounds
per acre, this- uhows what intensive
farming will do.
"The three Atlantic States are like
ly to produce this year as much as
the whole belt back in the early sev
enties, and if every farmer in these
three States farmed like some of the
best in Wake county, they could sup
ply the entire American consumption
and give Lancashire spinners all they
wanted besides."
MAKE IT "SPICK AND SPAN.'
As the ages grow older and civiliza
tion advances by leaps and bounds,
the crude disappears and ItIs the ar
tistic that appears, yet more and
more It Is required of the artistic, that
it be utilitarian as well. . "Fine feath
ers make .fine birds" is ali right, but
the birds must be birds that do ser
vice. - p
The individual, immaculate in dress
and ever a league In front of the
fashion plate. Is very good as an
oddity or a freak, but like the so
called "dandy" or Beau Brummell of
past days, has his environment in a
very narrow circle. He does not
count In the game, for he Is purely
the ornament, the "peacock feather"
of the time, and he Is not useful, ex
cept that It be that his usefulness con
sists In giving occupation to others to
put him out as he would be. Beyond
this his touch upon life Is a mere
zero. The man who counts does not
do this because of his clothes, yet the
demand- of the
neatly garbed.
age
is that men go

The
must : not be a scare-crow In his
make-up, but as his 'purse permits, he
must be clothed so as not to offend.
His rarb should . be of "the kind that
makes him passable, tt should at the
same time be of utilitarian value, of
service to the wearer! ' . ' - J
The growth of a city from hamlet,
to village, :to town 'and - towards the
goal of the metropolis Is, however, the
eb3t Illustration. In its development
the crude" slowly but surely changes,
the crooked lines are straightened out
axd the uneven places ' ' are made
smooth. v 'The' buildings change v and
artistic' taste Is evinced on the "struc
tures, while the utilitarian is studied
to the utmost detail. "How to make a
place beautiful and at the same time
make It in every part convenient Is
the dream of the architect In the old
days the four walls to the' house and
the lack of every futility ' within was

Then there is the street ' and road
question. Thej village, ; with tits, mud
streets, its grass encumbered, anct Im
passable sidewalks, was considered as
the usual thing. But when the village
advanced to the town .there must be
Improved roadways and streets, and
when $h9 population made it a city
then there must come the most mod

the, vehicles in -which!' locomotion ' is
speeded. - The . "spick and span" is re
quired 'of the city authorities, who
while providing good' streets, are re
quired to keep 'these neat and clean.
There Is, too,' thi demand , for ; trees
and hedges ad t oun tains. That which
becomes an eye-sore must be forbid
den.: The city must clean up and keep
clean, and the citizen must do hisp&rt
with, his private ' premises, for there
is a .reciprocal reUtlon . in all life, r,
That all In life should be made both
artlstio and utilitarian, is easy to be
shown by hundreds of examples,' for
these are right at hand, to all .who

Is for such: is a" certainty and meets

do 'too much to" make itself a "spick

It offers better safeguards to health,

when he creates .an artistic structure
than to put, Into it every convenience

Publicity counts. Put public opinion
behind any "great needed reform of'
abuses and tho chances aire all in fa
vor of seeing these corrected. When
public opinion Is thoroughly' aroused
against the trust evils and their ex
actions, then the trusts will be mads
to behave, and to do right, or be an
nihilated. So The News and Observer
repeats that the way to get at these
monster Iniquities is to "build a fire
under them." a nre of publicity, of
public opinion, and of an outraged
people. It will make so hot. a caul
dron that even ?hat great trust,
the American Tobacco Company, will
take heed.

season of 1909 -'10 opened here j this
morning at 10 o'clock with farmers
from all over the county In attend
ance. - uu
The sale this morning began the
fifth year of the local market. Since
its organization in 1905, it has estab
lished a- record of which any market
In the State might -be proud. It
stands about midway in the list of
markets In the State from a numeri
cal computation of pounds sold, but
heads the list in the highest average
price paid.
This is due largely to the fact that
farmers In this section raise bright,
yellow tobacco the kind suitable fojr
"wrappers," and thus secure top-notch
prices. They train their land, study
the art of cultivating and curing, end
realize as a result the highest prices
paid anywhere in the State for their
tobacco. I

the enviabfe reputation the market
has established. These men are well
