Ho For North Carolina
It is the same story but with a
variation, for North Carolina leads
in so many things that there is no
use doubling on our tracks when
there is once again stated that
North Carolina is at the head of
the procession of States! in some
of the great products of the soil.
This time, and by the official
figures, we are referring to the fact
that the record of the crops of the;
past year for the Slate and the
country shows that North Carolina
stands first as to cotton, tobacco,
peanuts and sweet potatoes. ,That
is a fine thing to be able to chron
icle, and the mere statement demon
strates1 the fact that this State of
fers unsurpassed opportunities tn
agriculture. It is a State in which
there is the greatest chance for all
who labor with intelligence and wit
assiduity.
The figures which are given by
the United States Departmnet of
Agriculture show that as to cotton
North Carolina leads the ' whole
country for the fourth consecutive
year in the amount of cotton rais
ed per acre, the average being 239
pounds. South Carolina is second
with 234 pounds. The government
report for the previous year shows
that North Carolina raised 315 lbs.
per acre.
That Is for cotton, and there is
a similar fine report as to tobacco
This report is that the tobacco crop
in North Carolina is worth $30,988,
000, exceeding Kentucky, which is
second, by more than $2,000,000.00.
The primacy of North Carolina in
these two crops give it a position
which should appeal to every man
Nvho is seeking a home in a see
tion where he can better his con-
tlon.
Now as to sweet potatoes. In the
prouction of this crop North Caro
lina is first with 8,000,000 bushels
to its credit on the official record.
And then as to peanuts North Caro
Una stands first of all the States
In the production of this crop.
The fertility of the soil of the
State is being more and more rec
ognized as the crops produced in
crease in size. Take the wheat, the
oat and the corn crops to illustrate
this. The figures show that in the
pat year the increae in the quan
tity of wheat grown In the State
amounts to 1,750,000 bushels over
the 1912 crop, in oats the increase
was 7,000,000 buhele, and in corn
4,000,000 bushels, the increase in
the corn crop in the past four years
amounting to 21,000,000 bushels.
Our people have as their home a
great State which can but grow
greater. It is a State which has a
welcome ready for all who come to
take part inbuilding it up. No State
offers better opportunities. "Ho For
North Carolina" should be the song
of all who seek a home, where the
opportunities are the greatest. Ex.

In Memory.
On Wednesday, January 28, at 4
o'clock the Ieah aiifjel visited the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Alson Wil
liams of Asheboro and took away
their darling little Daisy, only six
years of age. She suffered about i
weeks and seemed to be getting bet
ter until the night s!ie died but she
bore her affliction bravely without
a murmur. Her death came as
shock to the entire community. All
was done that fond parents and
kind friends could do. We cannot
see why God should take from
one so young and fair, just in the
bloom of life. But the Lord giveth
and the Lord taketh away.
She leaves behind a father and
mother, two brothers and four sis'
ters and a host f friends to mourn
their loss. But weep not dear pa.
rents and friends for our loss is her
eternal gain.
The remains were laid to rest at
Flag Springs Friday among
crowd of relatives and friends to
await the resurrection.
Little Daisy, it is so sad and
lonely without thee.
A precious one from us is gone
To live with God above.
Where neither pain nor sorrow
comes, but all is peace and love.
Short her stay but how we miss
her.
Stricken hearts alone can say.
When we see the little garments
Miss the child face day by day.
Gone to rest, she's free from sor
row, With the angels from God's
throne;
And we soon shall see her.
But our hearts are sad and lonely
When we reach the pearly portals
of the city bright and fair.
There we'll meet our little darl
ing.
She will bid us welcome there
And with Jesus and the angels
we will dwell for evermore.
And we'll know our little darling
When we meet on that bright
shore.
A precious one from us has gone-
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home.
which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom hag recalled
The boon his love had given.
And though the body slumbers
here,
The soul is safe in heaven.

MIGHT SERVE AS A MODEL
Beautiful Rural Home, Properly Laid
Out and Kept Up, Nearly Ap
proached the Ideal.
A short time ago the writer rode
past a rural home that certainly
should satisfy any earthly being for a
place of residence.
A hundred feet highway frontage
had been reserved in the middle of an
orchard of 20 acres about square. The
house stood about one hundred feet
back, the whole plat was inclosed by
a neat wtre-mesh fence covered with
roses and various climbers. A few
clumps of shrubs were arranged just
Inside the gateway along front and
side fence and about the foundations
of the house. Very few trees were in
the foreground and these few were
kept out of the lawn center, but on
either side of the house yet not close
to the building were flanked quite a
number, thinly planted in front but
more thickly about rear of house so
one could not look beyond a point op
posite the rear corner of the house. In
the front was a blue grass lawn, fair
ly well kept and occasionally mowed,
though quite long at the time of obser
vation. The lawn did not look as
though it had teen "bartered" for
month nor as though It proved a prob
lem to keep it up except with great
labor. Two or three vines lightly
draped the house, a few flowers were
to be seen in all parts and in some
spots a bright mass spoke of flowering
annuals or perennials. All was neat
and clean yet did not look as though
raked and swept every day or even
every week. The whole place harmon
ised with the spirit of nature and
rnrallty, where every prospect pleases
and not even man la vile. The home
and all surrounding looked so suffi
cient, so satlfylng, so rural, without a
suggestion of the artificially found in
cities or suburban districts, that It
called vividly to mind the happy pas
toral scenes of old suggested by Gold
smith's couplet:
"A time there was, are England'!
griefs began.
When every rood of ground main
tained its man."
It costs but little to so arrange the
home grounds, its upkeep calls for but
little of time or money, yet such hornet
are the country's strongest asset,
peaking volumes for the prosperity
and happiness of the rural residents.
INFLUENCE OF HOUSE PLANTS
Their Positive Value Extends Not
Only to Those In the Homo, But
to the Passerby.
The cultivation of house plants has
1 refining and quieting influence on
families where they are grown; they
adorn the house as nothing else can,
and give to the cheapest furniture an
sir of elegance which no other orna
ment can impart. And the influence
of flowers is not confined to the house
or household where they are culti
vated; they are a most graceful form
of charity to the poor passerby who
has no means of gratifying; his taste
for the beautiful. To him, blooming
flowers, surrounded by their leaves of
different shapes and shades, even
when only seen at a distance, through
a window, give a positive pleasure
which those more accustomed to such
gratifications can scarcely appreciate.
It is impossible to overestimate the
effect of youthful association and dally
companionship with such exquisite
shape and coloring, which foster in, the
minds of children a taste for simple
and natural forms of amusement and
recreation.
Growing Trees From Top Down.
A foreign railway company has
solved the plan of getting good shade
trees in a short time, though they may
be small. TheBe trees are so ar
ranged that after two years' time they
will give as much shade as trees in
the ordinary way of setting out would
give that are fifteen or twenty years
old. The company gets a small elm
tree, preferably digging this, roots
and all, from the ground. The tree
then is set, the top part being set!
into tne grounu ana tne roots are ten
In the air. The tree then grows, forma
roots on which originally was the top
of the tree, and the original roots that
now take the place of the branches
begin to leaf out and form a complete
foliage very quickly. Beautiful speel
mens of such Inverted trees are to be
seen by the fountains in Kensington
gardens, London.

A Simple Kemedy to IVrreot -stipation
Jlefore it Become
Chronic.
Very few people go through life
without some time or ether being
troubled with constipation. Thou
sands injure themselves by the use
of strong cathartics, salts, mineral
waters, pills and similar things.
They have temporary value in some
cases, It is true, but the good effVc:
is soon lost and the more one takes
of them the less effective they be
come .
A physic or purgative is seldom
necessary, and much better and
more uermaneiit results can be ob
tained by using a scientific remedy
like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup pepsin. It
does not hide behind a high sournl
ing name, but is what it is repres
ented to be. a mud laxative medi
cine. It Is so mild that thousands
ot mothers give it to tiny infants,
and yet it is so compounded, and
contains such definite ingredient
that it will have equally good effect
when used by a person simeniig
from the worst chronic constipation.
In fact among the greatest endors
ers of Syrup Pepsin are elderly peo
ple who have suffered for years ana
found nothing to benefit them un
til they took Syrup Pepsin.
It is a fact that millions of fam
ilies have Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin constantly in the house, homes
like those of Mr. II. W. Fensier-
tnaker, Siegfried, Pa. He says he
lias had wonderful results from the
use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup pepsin,
that, in fact, he has never found a
remedy so good, and he is glad to
recommend it. The special value of

The little village of Prattsville,
Arkansas, though small was the
county seat of the county in which
it was situated.
It had long since been in slumber
land after a busy day as the moon
and stars peeped over the moun
tains, and perfect stillness seemed
to reign everywhere.
It was here that all county dis
putes were settled, and it being
the county seat the jail was here.

fireman returning home late at
night after the hard days labor.
had seen his chance to take food
from the rich man's kitchen to the
hungry ones at home, and feeling
his humble need, had yielded to the
opportunity, and the rich man, learn
ing of the thief, followed him up.
and the man was placed in jail. The
jail was a most miserable place dur
ing the winter days, and each day
the unfortunate man tried some new
plan of escaping, and at last suc
ceeded on this particular night.
Once outside of the jail he knew
not where to go, but knew that the
decision must be quick. So he
started down the street to make hl
escape before dawn, it then being
2; 00 a. m.
He had gone only a short dis
tance, when he perceived a faint
light far ahead, and thinking it
just as easy to escape by this way,
quickened his pace toward the light.
As he came nearer, he was in
stantly surprised to see that it was
the house from which he had taken
the food, and that it was all ablaze
with fire.
He saw no one, and this gave
him reason to feel the responsibil
ity of the lives within. He stared
in silence, knowing net w-hat to do,
for if the alarm was given, he was
sure to be caught, and if the alarm
was not given he was sure that the
lives within the building would be
destroyed.
So without further hesitation his
voice was raised in the alarm. Fire
Fire, Fire.
At the sound of the alarm the
occupants and villagers were soon
gathered outside, but too late to
save the house, and as they all
stood watching the fire creep to
the last room, they were startled
by the voice of the nurse, saying
that the baby was still in the build
