I notice that cropyre still far be
low the average In Guuedge town
ship. Tbe sandy lands have Buffered
most from the abnormal conditions
of more than 2u0 preperations which here
after may be handled by drug stores only
after the Government liquor license is
paid.
These preperations, including many well-
hnown, were examined by the chemists of
the Treasury Department and held to be in
sufficiently medicated to render them unfit
n
cheese cloth, resembling those oh the j tor M a beverage," or to take them out
of the class of alcohoholic beveages.
Treasury Department officials said they
believed that many of these preperations
were" concocted mainly for sale in dry
territory, where the prohibition laws made
it impossible to obtain legally anything
with a liquor flavor.
It is estimated there are 40,000 drug-
riat.ln th-47nifced States, a lew more
than half of whom pay the $25 yearly
special tax, which permits them to sell the
preparations involved. Other stores
which continue to vend these mixtures now
riii i monired to Dav the tax, and tbe
United States Treasury will be enriched
accordingly.
Secratary Mac Veagh has issued an or-

the amount of alcohol that may be used

box Biat in the middle of the flimsy
frame.
In the centre were two hand levers
taken from a self propelling toy wag
on. These would cause the cheese
cloth planes to work up and down
and shift slightly for balancing.
There was no motor or anything sug
gestive of one. Tne machine was
expected to glide, rather than to
fly. -V
Today Harry's mother went shop
ping, and Harry called two chums
into his home In an East Side New
York flat to try the aeroplane, which
they carried to the roof of the four
story tenement.
"We'll let my little sister take the
first ride," he said. "She dorjL'tweigh

The child did not object. She
thought it was a new game, lhe
three boys gently moved the airship
forward until it tottered on tne eage.
Then gave it a shove and stood back
to see it soar. .
A woman heard a Hint scream.
She saw the cheese-cloth contrivance
dropping straight down, turn turtle
and crash : into a ruin of rags and
splinters against the stones. Then
she saw the child in the wreckage.
Harry stayed long enough to tell
the story to a neighbor, then fled
before an ambulance and a policeman
arrived. "

Hpndredl Ot Sheep, Hog And Cattle
Swept Away In Kentucky.
Louisville. K7 Jnly 16. Widespread
damages in several countia in Kentucky
and Indiana has resulsed from the cloud
bursts which broke last night and today
after three weeks ot almost daily rain.
Henderson. Union, Webster and Nicholas
counties in Kentucky suffered most. Esti
motes of the damage fix it at 12,000,000.
A quarter of a mile of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad track between Paris and
Mavsville was washed away, and three
steel bridges were totally wrecked, accord
ing to reports received tonight. Many
houses were carried off by the waters, and
a large acreage of tobaco, corn and wheat
is a complete loss. Live stock also suffer
ed heavily'. -
In Carlisle, Ky., tobaccostored in ware
houes of tbe Burley Tobacco Society was
soaked and damaged. Eight blocks of the
city aud lumber yards were inundated and
much timber was washed away. The loss
io Carlisle a ad Nicholas counties alone is
estimated at f iO ',000.
Two inches of rain fell in Maysville,
Ky., today and tbe water swept through
houses, carrying off furniture and every
thing movable. Tobacco plants were wash
ed out and the s wolen creeks carried every
thing in their patns. xne bridges atJNeed
more and Moransburg were swept away.
Watho'its occurred on the Morion and the
Indiana Central Railroad in Indiana and
traffic wil! be tied up to some extent. All
trains on theMonou were detoured today.
Practically all the low lands in Jefferson
county (Louisville) are under water and
much danger is reported
A long stretch of the Illinois Central
taicK, near iungcreeK, iventuctty, is re
ported under water, but that road has
suffered no delay to traffic, according to
iouisvme omciais
lands have Buffered, more man me
clay. Some corn, where planted too
thick, will be almost a failure.
I observe here that it requires some
thing besides fertilizers to make a
crop, and what will do for one year
wiilnot, under adverse circumstances,
Hn an wpll the next year. No man
has, as yet learned all about-farn -ing,
and no ironclad theory will hold
good under all conditions... Common
sense mixed with experience in most
cases will sprve a better purpose. Our
farmers are no laggards. They have
wrought well. The conditions con
frontine them were unforeseen: oth
erwise they would have planned and
acted differently. I guess it is better
to ' know nothing of what the future
has in store; else, we should all, in a
great measure, lose our energy ana
enthusiasm.
"Where are we at," and to what
are we coming, as a people? Will
fanaticism, or conservatism, domi
nate our people? Fanaticism seems
now to have the front row In old An
son as well as in some other counties.
Talk to a fanatic and he will endeav
or to bluff you. Our old enemy is
not dead, only sleeping; and It be
hooves the Simon pure belonging to
the Democratic fold, to look well to
their colors. There is aa element
amongst us that will go any length
to carry , out their fanaticism, ana
why some have allied themselves to
this element is Deyona com p re n en
sion. rne people are watt-mug as
never before, and they have a way of
not forgetting. Can not our people
recollect as far back as 1895-'6? Will
the time never come when the lodl
vidual can be elected, upon merit and
without the assistance of any clique,
to any office? Tbe younger element
are not as conservative as were, ana
are. their fathers. The older one9
are being relegated to the rear. But,
in a great measure, this is true ociy
of those whose fathers never suffered
from tbe casualties of the sixties. The
sympathies of the boy whose father
bore the brunt or tbe strne in the
civil war have not been blunted by
the spirit of greed or fanaticism.
We never expected to. live to see
the time come when the youths of
the South would forget the sacrifices
made by their fathers in their behalf.
The old soldier has lived too long,
tie has lived to see the day when
greed and commercialism have sup
planted patriotism, and no love is
left except for the dollar. This is
the spirit of this generation, and is
being well cultivated.
The older element is Democratic,
and believe m the South not as she
is but as she was when tbe love of
country was paramount and tbe state
had some rights that should be re
spected. The younger element is not
as careful as it should be in this re
spect. They are apparently willing
for Jcff-rson to be supplanted by
Hamilton and his doctrine. Then
farewell to Democrney. Little of it
is left, an1 this only with the old
old South.

Qlaaa Nearly Beheads Her. ,
N?w York, July 15 By a m-t
peculiar accident Mtai Lena Phillips,
of Harlem, was al in nt i nUntly kill
ed today when a pti of glm. fill
from a fifth story window In the
apartment of Mrs.vTillie Goldstein,
, in East One Hundred and Third
street, striking Miss Phillips in the
neck, nearly severing her neck from
her body. The young woman fell to
the side walk and died before assist
ance could reach her.
In their investigation the police
learned that Mrs. Goldsteiu was
cleaning the front windows in her
apartment when the loose pane of
glass suddenly slipped out of its frame
and fell. Mrs. Goldstein' said she
thought it strange that she did not
hear the glass am ish on the sidewalk,
but she paid no further attention to
the incident until S3 u33fi3 rushsd up
to her apartment and told her a wo
man had been killed on the street.
The police mide no arrest.

Tbe Tt of a Good Loaf of Bread.
Progressive Farmer.
The first point is the baking. The
crust should be an even golden brown
and should not be more than three
eighths of one irch thick. If the
crust Is thicker than that, it indicates
that the oven was too hot when the
loaf was put in. The crumb of the
1 af is the next point. This is judged
J y pressing upon it with the finger.
If the bread springs back to its origi
nal surface, the bread is well baked.
If the dent remains after the finger
U removed, It indicates that tbe loaf
h not well baked. It is . doughy and
not wholf some. b-
n tf xture the bread should be fine
rrained and of an even grain through

This is what we would like to get every prospective
customer to do make a comparsson of the Tyson 8c
Jones or Hackney buggies with any other buggy ever
sold in the town of Wadesboro. When we can get a
customer to do this we are entirely satisfied whether
we make a sale or not, because if we do not convince
him that we have the best buggy we don't want his
business. We have been selling Tyson & Jones and
the Hackney buggies for years and expect to be selling
them years hence; we are steadily building up a trade
on these two buggies while our competitors shift from
year to yeac from one cheap buggy to another. Did
you ever buy one of these cheap buggies on a "Very
broad guarantee" and when you went back to the deal
er next year and told him his buggy was no good have
him tell you: "We have found that out. We have
changed our line, and we have just as good s kind now
as the Tyson & Jones or the Hackney." It sounds
"fishy", doesn't it?
We would like to take up buggy comparison with
you by starting in on the wheels. We use no wheels
on these two grades of buggies that we do not fully
and absolutely guarantee. Our axles are warranted
and are undoubtedly the best grade of self oiling axles.
We guarantee the leather upholstering of these two
grades to show up of better material than any compet
ing lines. We give you a deeper top, better trimmed
top and better constructed top than any of the others.
The castings and fittings, Bailey hangers, etc., are pol
ished and emery ground before painting. Our springs
are made of the bestecond growth seasoned hickory.
Our factories not only use the very best quality of
paints, but all bodies are rubbed out with several coats
of rubbing varnish and finishing varnish, and our gears
are finished in the old "rub lead" system, in five coats.
"The proof of the pudding is the. eating thereof,"
So ask the man who uses a Tyson 8c Jones or a Hack
ney buggy what he thinks of them. They cost a little
more than thetcheaper grade buggies, of course, but if
comfort and pleasure are what you want you will
come to see us.
