Thmsdry, Aoguatll, 1910.
Our county commissioners must
still keep their eyes open on the
solvent credit column in the tax
ikte.
Solvent credits and money about
June 1st can do more flying in
the air than all other aviators
combined.
Having been forced to a back
seat in Nebraska Mr. Bryan we
tmlv hone for the good of the
party will hold his seat.
Laying no claim to prescience the
Southerner asserts tbat such tern
nerauce talks as Rev. B. E. Brown'
in our Saturday Sermon will fur
ther temperance more than all the
drastic law thai professional re
form can frame.
NO LAGGARD DEMOCRATS.
The campaign for Congress
which is iust now beius futered
upon is the most important from
a partisan standpoint since the
memorable struggle of 1896. It
is the first time since then that
the Democrats start in with an
even chance with their Republi
can opponents.
There must b-j no laggard Demo
crats this year. Every speaker
of prominence will be expected
to take the stump in the interest
of the Democratic Congressional
candidates. The main issues are
plain, and there is no difference
of opinion about essentials such
as onr ReDnblUan friends are
plagued with.
It is pleasant to note that such
an eminent Democrat as Governor
Austin L. Crothers of Maryland
has lately declared that when the
speaking camp-tig i opens, he
will "take off his coat" and nse
his best efforts for the Democratic
candidates in close Congressional
districts. Those who know the
stiicking style of Governor
Clothers and his power as a
political speaker will uot be sur
orised to hear that already there
is a great demand for his service
to uphold the banner of Demo
cracy.
ANOTHER SMASH-UP.
The
Unhitched Team
the Danger.
Again lllus-
Yesterday, a mule hatched to
one horsa wagon from the County
Home here for supplies became
friguuened at a bicycle and ran, a-
way. fcs first encounter was with
Mr. Savage's buggy. Three wheels
were broken and one leg of the
horse cut. The nest was with a
fire hydrant at the market bouse,
where a pair of wheels were torn
from the wagon. Then diagonally a
cross Main street as if going direct
into the second door of the Rober
son-Ruffin Co.'s store, the mule ran
between ah iron hitching post
a telephone pate. This knocked
wagon into pieces and released
mule.
If the police would arrest
the Mayor would punish those
and
the
the
and
who
leave teams standing unhitched
me street, the practice wnich is so
common here would be abandoned an.
life and property would te safer.
Where the Weather is . Hot.
Bahrien, on the Persian Gulf Is said
to be one of the hottest pkrxee or
earth. For six consecutive weeks
there the thermometer was known
to stay above 100 m the shade. It
varies the monotony however by oc
cas.oaai ciunt)s to 125 degrees or so.
There 13 no rainfali and no wells ex
i9i tor' attempts to reacn water even
at a dspth of 500 feet have failed
Chicago News.
Short Tall Corn.
There has been broo.Rht to the
ssowtneraser on.ee from the farm of
C. II. Spivey a stalk of com 16 feet
high with two good ears upon at. In
front of the Coui't House Is another
eta'k of same length grown at the
County Home with two partially de
veloped ears.
These of course show vigorous
growth; but the best fruiting is
mot on such tail stalks. Even If
such made as much corn it is still
objectionable from a fodder putting
standpoint.
Land that will grow such vigorous
stalk should be made to grow less
stalk and more corn and this can be
accomplisb.de by seed selection.
The writer knows of a fanner who
after procuring a reputable variety
selected tor his seed cona from the
top ear. The result was that he did
not improve the yield, just the re
verse,, but he lengthened the stalk
each yeaV
He then obtained another variety
and began selecting seed from the
iower ear. Result: a stalk only up
to the average height and a larger
yield.
Wiii proper seed selection Mr.
Spivey should be able on the land
that he grew the giant stalk that
we have to make 15 or 16 barrels of
corn to .the acre.
Dysentery is a dangerous disease I
but can be cured. Chamberlain's Col-
ic Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy has
oeen successfully used in nine
epidemics of dysentery. It has never
been known to fail., It Is equally
valuable for children end adults and

Airship Moving From th Clm
Toys and Being tot to Work.
Moot great inventions hove begun
toys,. It wo so with the phono
graph, the telephone, wireless teaeg
raphy. The first is now put to xazxij
useful purposes aside frm enter
tainingthe second has become in
dispensable to mankind and wireless
transmission while still o toy tor
boys is a tremendous fact for men.
The steamboat; the railway itself..
the electric telegraph were 4n the
beginning little more than toys; sod
in the gyroscope which is the com
mon spinning top, we have a toy
thousands of years old fop which
uses aire at last being found.
The airship 4s being set to work
as promptly as could reasonably be
expected. In, England, aeroplane pas
sengere are carried for a price but
onlv for "fun". Bleriot who first
flew across the Bnguah channel is
now a French army lieutenant,, de
livering by aeroplane such dispatches
as In war a general might sot In
trust to telegraphy. In Germany the
first, passenger airship began trips
recently from Frledrichshafen to Stutt
gart; Mannheim; Cologne and Dus
aaldorf. A ship that can manage 11.000
pounds of passengers; baggage and
supplies and that Is provided with a
dining room is hardly a toy. Fares
are still high, but they wiH soon com
down. The dirigible balloon tost pub
lic esteem by the wreck of the big
Zeppelin II lit a storm at Limburg:
but she was lost through the stupid
r'y of German military men and
refusal to listen to civilian air pi
lots. The Friedrlcbahafeo passenger
airship is backed bv a big steamship
company not a visionary corporation.

Hopeful Sign.
This g eat i ureses la the acreage
devoted to corn is considered on
of the m-iTt hopeful signs In th
Sooth today, in a letter to the dt
rectors of the boohern Railway Com
pany. President Fin ley called part leu
lar attention to these figures
said:
"The increase in the acreage of
corn, accompanied as It is toy a quite
general adoption of Improved caUur
al methods Is one of the most
couraging fea'urea of Southern agrl
cultural progress. It Is one of the ic
suits of a general movement through
out the South In the direction of
divers If lei agriculture-a oori
which we are endeavoring to en
courage and assist as far as we can
properly do so."
Greater Prosperity.
As the farmers of the Sooth in
their yield of corn, they wlli
save enormous sums which they hate
been spending In th West for food
products and will consequently theat
selves realize more from cotton sad
o her market cro;a Economic autbu
Hies agree to. declaring th Amerlcr
corn crio the basis of the conn
try's property since In such a lar
measure the pronation of oth
crops as well as the pork supply de
pends upon It and a greater yield o
com la the Son h consequently m in
a greater share of prosperity for this
section.
