A recent compilation shows that 17 life insurance companies have in farm loans $519,143,588, distributed in 42 states and Porti Rico. Of this amount North Carolina has $794,830. An article in The Times of London, calls attention to the field for group insurance open in England, and points out the fact that in this respect, business houses of the United States are ahead of those in Great Britain. A shipment of three hundred tea saplings from Sir Thomas Lipton's plantations near Colombo has arrived in San Diego and are set out in the San Diego Exposition grounds, the first tea plants to take root in Ameri can soil. The value of grindstones and pulp stones produced in the United States in 191.. according to the United States Geological Survey, was $S55, 627, a decrease of $60,712 compared with $916,339, the value for 1913. The wild onion, or garlic, which causes an annual money loss to farm ers of millions of dollars, can be erad icated by careful methods of cultiva tion, according to Farmers' Bulletin No. 610, of the Department of Agri culture. General aeroplane transportation for all visitors to San Diego is pro vided for during all twelve months of 1915 by arrangement of the Exposi tion with Walter Brookins, the Amer ican aviator. The scaffold is now removed from the frontispiece of the California state building, one of the most impres sive of the San Diego Exposition, revealing the completed work of the Picrillis, the eastern sculptors who created the statuary. Traveling 8,000 miles in an automo bile, covering the distance twice across the United States and touch ing the four cornci-s of the United States, with no damage cf any conse quences to their machine, Mr. and and Mrs. M. P. Rodgers and Mr. and Mrs. S. C. Rodgers arrived in Spo kane, Wash., recently. The manufacture of lime in the United States in. 1913 broke all pre viors records, the production amount ing to 3,595,390 short tons, valued at $14,648,362, according to R. W. Stone, of the United States Geological Sur vey. Victor Emanuel III, Italian Society of Edmonton, Alta., has completed arrangements to purchase four town ships, 51,840 acres of government lands on the shores of Big Egg Lake, 85 miles north east of Edmonton, to be colonized by members of the asso ciation. Two counties in Pennsylvania, Fay ette and Westmoreland, which consti tute the Connellsvilte coking district, had a combined production of bitumm ous coal in 1913 of over 65,850,000 short tons, within ten per cent of the total production of West Virginia, the second coal producing state in the Union, and exceeding that of Illinois by about 4,000,000 tons. Opportunity for increasing trade with many important points on the Carribean Sea has been given to Southern manufacturers and mer chants by the recent establishment by the Seeburg Line of service between Mobile and Venezuela and Colombian ports. Three new steamers, making fortnightly sailings from Mobile, have ben placed in this service. The number of men in the world is about equal to the number of women, says the American Bankers, citing some interesting statistics. The aver age of human life is about thirty three years. One-quarter die previous to the age of seven years, one-half before seventeen, and those who reach this age enjoy a felicity re fused to one-half of the human sne cies. Many fire hazards have been intro duced by the use of electricty for commercial and domestic purposes. Many of the dangers are little un derstood and therefore have practic ally no attention. One of the uses that is causing many fires is the elec tric iron. The housewife is called for a few minutes, the current is left on, and before it is thought of, the fire starts. The current should always be cut off when the iron is not in use. Southern manufacturers and mer chants shiuld lose no time in taking advantage of the opportunity which the war in Europe has given them for -extending their . trade witn boutn American countries, particularly Ar gentina and Uruguay on account of -the direct steamshin service to these countries through the port of Mobile, declares Mr. Charles Lyon Chandler, South American agent of the South ern Railway. The outbreak of the European war las caused the New York price of tin to rise 65 cents a pound, although in the latter part of July tin was . .sold as low as 80.15 cents a pound. None of the European countries make a production which -would greatly affect market values, and the distur " bance of nrice is due mostly to the insecurity of ocean freights which are carried very largely in kngien or uer man bottoms. WAR AND SUGAR SUPPLY Germany, Austria, Russia and France Produce Eighty Per Cent. New York, Aug. 26.-The outbreak of war in Europe has resulted in a sharp advance in sugar prices. On July SO, the lowest net cash quota tion of the New York refiners for granulated sugar was 4.165 cents a pound, wihle raw sugar was selling at 3.29 cents. By August 10 rehned had advanced to 6 cents and raw to 5 cents. Germany, Austria, Russia and France, the nations actively engaged in conflict, are the chief sources of Europe's sugar supply, producing to gether some 7,500,000 tons of beet sugar. This is nearly eight per cent of the entire output of beet sugar and more than one-third of the total sugar crop of the world. Ordinarily Ger many, Russia and Austria export a million tons or more of sugar to other countries, largely to Great Britain. The largest production and the larg est exportation is that of Germany. The harvesting of the German sugar crop is carried on largely by laborers from Russia and Poland, and this la bor will not be available if the war continues during the harvesting pe riod. In all the countries involved in the war the labor supply is drained by military operations, and it is likely that the beet fields may be devastated by the movement of troops. Great Britain is the chief sugar im porting country of Europe. Her year ly importations are over two million tons, of which aproximately 700,000 tons ordinarily is drawn from nations now involved in war. With this source of supply cu off, Great Brit ain has turned to the New York mar ket to secure sugar, buying 40,000 tons within the first few days of Au gust and bidding up prices rapidly in order to obtain it. While the Europe an war continues it will be necessary for Britons to depend for sugar upon sources of supply on which usually they do not draw to any extent. It is evident from what has occurred al ready that they are likely to continue in sharp competition for Cuban sugar which ordinarily comes to the Ameri can market. The supply of Cuban and American grown sugar in sight at the end of Ju ly was just about sufficient to meet the estimated demands for American consumption un to the time when the crops now growing will become avail able. Any considerable outside (irait upon this supply, therefore, was bound to show its effect at once in advanc ing prices. Fortunately for the United States: in suite of the curtailment cf pro duction in the cane and beet growing districts due to the reduction of the tariff, America still has a domestic production of sugar including that of Porto Kico and Hawaii, wmcn fnouia amount to over one and a ha1!, million tcn: this year. This wii; serve as a great steadier of Ue nu.rket in care of a protracted war, and will prevent prces from going as high a they otherwise would, although the necess ity of securing over two million tons from outside the United States, in addition to the domestic supply, will leave the American market under the influence of the general advance in world prices. One of the arguments that has been put forward against the destruction of the American sugar growing indus try through the removal of the im port duty on sugar is that it would expose American consumers to all the violent fluctuations that take place in the European sugar market as a re sult of war, speculation or crop short ages. The present situation affords a striking illustration of the truth of this claim. If the United States were to double its sugar production, as might easily be done by the system atic development of its cane and beet irrowiner industries, the American peo ple would be entirely independent of the rest of the world for their sugar sunn'.v. The retail price of sugar at the be ginning of August this year was high er than on the corresponding date last vear. before the reduction in the tar iff rate went into ettect. moes col lected from a large number of repres entative retail firms in New York Citv on August 1, before retail prices had" been affected appreciably by the Euronean war, showed that the aver age retail price on that date was 5.22 cents a pound, as compared with 4.93 cents on August 1, 191-i. WHY NOT TAX NORTH CAROLI NA BACHELORS? A ereat many state legislatures have given consideration to bills tax ing bachelors, and many convincing arguments have been presented why men who escaoe matrimony- should Dav a nenalty but why not tag them as a more painlesss and effective method of extermination. If the bach elors were tagged the widows could easily find them and Cupid would do the rest. The bachelor is naturally timid, but under the encouraging in fluence of a merry widow, he can easily be led to the altar, for there is no more helpless craft afloat than a lovesick swain who has passed the age of discretion, and the little imp that Tilavs nine none with human hearts has no more capable ally than woman who loves at second sight for experience makes Cupid subtle and bold. The women have tag days to pro mote most every other public, enter prise and why not a tag day for the bachelors? We have in North Caro lina approximately sixty-five thous and bachelors and an equal number of widows. Why not get them togeth er. and solve two vezatious problems vrith one marriage license" Four thousand abled bodied men. chiefly reservists and veterans of pre viou8 campaigns, drawn from idrnon ton. Alta.. and surrounding country, on the way to the front are awaiting orders to join the fighting force in Europe.

PRICE OF DRUGS GOES UP The Journal of the American Medi cal Association calls attention in its current number to the disturbances of our drug supply that are likely to fol low the war in Europe if it is pro longed for any great length of time. This country depends largely upon European manufacturers for many drug preparations and on European midd'emen for crude drugs. Even cinchona bark, the mother source of quinine, though a product of South America, has been obtained by the United States largely through the London and Amsterdam markets. The war may therefore prove the occasion for direct inmportations of this ma terial from South America that will save the middleman's profit. Many of our synthetic drugs and alkaloids come from Germany. The price of strychnine, caffeine, cocaine, formaldehyde and salvarsan will al most surely advance rather sharply. We probably shall have to take up their manufacture for ourselves if the war last smore than a few months. This will be of decided advantage af ter the war. France is our chief source of supply for tartric acid and Austria-Hungary, with France and the Balkan States, for the essential oils. Even in these, however, the possibil ity of American manufacture when high war prices prevail is not out of the question. The war probaly will cause incon venience and an advance in price at first, but will almost surely result in ultimate benefit to. this country by throwing us back on our own resour ces for the supply of important drugs.

C, Aug. 26 The North Carolina horse is now worth $139 per head, according to a report just issued by the United States De partment of Agriculture, while a year ago his average value was $128. There are 180,000 horses on the farms of this state, and they are valued at $25,020,000. In 1910 the number of horses in this state was 166,000, and had an ag gregate value of $20,OS6,000. In the entire United States there are 20,962,000 horses and they are worth $2,291,638,000, or $109.32 each. NATION FACING MEAT FAMINE Economic ezperts of the Federal Government are giving the high cost of living problem thoughtful consid eration and are investigating the high prices of meat. The Department of Agriculture has just completed a census of the meat-producing animals of the United States and finds that there has been a decrease of 4,183,000 head and an increase of $176,530,000 in value during the past year. On January 1, 1914, the herd numbered 144,507,000 compared with 148,690,000 head a year ago. The bulk of the nation's decreased meat supply is in the swine herd. Compared with last year the number of hogs in the United States dimin ished 2,185,000 head; cattle 175,000 head and sheep 1,763,000 head. The major portion of the increased values s credited to the beef animals. Ihe value of cattle, excluding milch cows, when compared with last year, shows an increase of $166,688,000; swine have gained $9,842,000 in val ue, while sheep have depreciated $1,- 476,000.

PRESIDENT WILSON WARNS AMERICANS The determination of the United States government to keep this coun try from becoming involved in the European war and its controversies was manifested in several ways this week. President Wilson addressed an ap peal to the American people calling on them studiously to refrain from anv ezDression or act that might re veal the slightest nartisanship. Lead ers in uongress oi au parties vuiceu similar views. Official information from Eerlin said the Japanese ultimatum had been delivered to the German govern ment and that diplomatic dispatches indicated that war between Japan and Germany was not unlikely. The Japanese Minister at Berlin apparently foreseeing such an event uality, asked Amabassador Gerard to be prepared to take over Japanese interests in uennany. Secretary Bryan received from Emperor William a long message transmitted through Ambassador Ge- ard, the contents of which was guared closely but which it was learned, expressed the grateful ap preciation of Germany for the ten der of the good offices of the United States. The German Emperor took occasion to point out causes of the present war and argued it is under stood, that while he was trying to mediate between Ausria and Servia, Russian mobilization began. White House officials denied the message contained any project concerning the attitude of the American press to ward Germany. Officials said there was nothing to indicate whether the German Emperor would at any fu ture time accept the render of good offices. Addressing the American people, l resident Wilson this week issued statement on the rxiropean war, warning citizens of the United States against ''that deepest, most subtle most essential breach of neutrality which may spring out of partisanship. out ot passionately taking sides. Ihe President pleaded that the United States be "neutral in fact as well as in name during these days that are trying men's souls." We must be imparital in thought as well as in action, he said, but put a curb upon our sentiments as well as upon every transaction that might be construed as a preference of one party to the struggle before another." Officials close to the President made it clear that he was determined to take no part in the dispute between Japan over the situation in the Far East. While that controversy was not specifically referred to in the President s statement, it became known that he is resentful of efforts blieved are being made to embroi the United States in it. FARM FACTS Those who till the soil are the chos en people ofGod. Farming is as old as the human race and yet in its infancy. Success is bound to come to the farmer who plans while he plows. No farmer is unsuccessful who thinks more of his barn than he does of his home. The development of the farmer him self must precede the full develop ment oi tne ground he tills. No civilization has ever advanced beyond its agricultural development Ihe best farmer does not bother about getting ahead of his neighbor; his great business is to get ahead of himself. We must give the people who live on the farm the same educational ad vantages for their children as those of the cities enjoy. The country clergy is an agency of much potentiality because the rural life movement is religious as well as industrial and social. There should be an industrial and a social survey of every community. The pastor, the teacher and the school and church officials are they who should make such a survey. In a recent survey of a community in New England, the average annual income of 154 farmers who have a common school education was $229, while the average net income of 122 farmers of the same locality with a high school education was $482 annu ity. This was worth to each farmer who possessed it $253 each year. NORTH CAROLINA LEADS IN FIREWOOD CONSUMPTION Washington, D. C, Aug. 26. There are 4,034,000 cords of wood valued at $7,076,000 consumed on the farms of North Carolina annually, according to a report that has just been issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. Ihe total yearly fire wood consumption in this state is 4,- 873,000 with a value of $9,523,000. North Carolina consumes more fire wood than any state in the Union, The consumption in the cities of this state is 713,260 cords and 117,000 cords are used in the mineral opera tion ot worth Carolin each year. In Continental United fatates annual consumption of firewood amounts to 85,937,000 cords, valued at at $250,- 000,000. Of this amount 69,961,000 cords are used on the farms, 14,222. 000 cords in the cities of the nation and 1,751,000 cords are used in the mines of the United States. The av erage value of wood consumed in the United States is $2.91 per cord and $1.95 in this state. The average con sumption per farm in the United States is 11 cords per annum.

WAR WITH MEXICO NARROWLY AVERTED As Recently as a Fortnight Ago Ac- tion Was Urged w uson oioon Firm It is Reported That Majori ty of Cabinet Urged Sending of Troops to Mexico When Carranza Rejected Peace. Washington. AuflT. 25. JUSt hOW close the United States came to being involved in a war witn Mexico as re cently as a fortnight ago was reveal ed recently by high officials of the ad ministration. When General Carranza abruptly rpipcted the overtures of the peace envoys sent by President Carbajal and at the same time ingored diplomatic offnrta nf th American eovernment to hrinir about a neaceful entry of the Constitutionalists into Mexico City, drastic measures were urged up on President Wilson. Many members of the Cabinet, it is said a majority, urged sending Amer ican troops from Vera Cruz to the Mezican capital to prevent anarchy then exnected to follow from the fail ure of the Carbajal government and the Constitutionalists to reach an agreement. Prsident Wilson, however, firmly resisted all pressure, arguing that sending of American troops into Mex ico Citv would probably mean war with the Constitutionalists. A few days later overtures came from the Carbajal government to the effect that if American troops would come to preserve order they would be as sisted. Oother promises were made the United States was to be given a coaling station in Magdalena Bay, the Chamizal claims were to be adjusted and many other things of particular interest to the American government were to be arranged. The President rejected all ap proaches believing the Constitutional ists themselves would maintain order He gave his attention instead to the possible split between Villa and Car ranza and renewed egorts to harmon ize the leaders. To carry out this purpose, the Pres ident sent a personal rnend, Paul ruller, a new iork lawyer, to see both Villa and Carranza. Mr. Fuller saw the President and Mr. Bryan secretly in Washington and has just arived at ilia s headquar ters, where he is co-operating with George C. Carothers, American Con sular agent, in urging Villa to join with Carranza in maintaning peace in Mexico. Announcement of the fact that Mr. Fuller had gone to see Villa was made by Secretary Bryan today. White House officials said Mr, Fuller went to Mezico merely to eath- er information for the administration It was reported in some quarters that Mr. Fuller was sent to familiarize himself with conditions and that he eventually might be named American ambassador to Mexico. TRAINING THE TOMATO VINE It is too late to train the tomato vines of 1914, but the following letter in the Southern Farmer by A. Jeffers, of Prince Anne county, Virginia, is worth puting away for reference next spring. Previous atempts to grow tomatoes were not successful, almost failures, in fact.. The weather was too wet or to dry; the sun was so hot that the tomatoes blistered or the vines droop ed on the ground and the tomatoes rotted oeiore ripening, and if per chance a few escaped the combination of calamities, the hens "flew over the garden wall and greedily and speed ily devoured and destroyed them. Last year another effort was made with an entire change of program The madam grew the plants in the house so-vas to have them early. At proper time the plants were trans planted in a row in the garden. Care and pains were taken to encourage the young plants to grow. A stake was driven in the ground at one end of the sixteen-foot row, another stake at the other end, and one in the middle The plants were hoed and mulched and the liberal rainfall, together with warm weather, caused the plants ' to .grow vigorously. They were soon 18 inches tall and climbing rapidly. wire was stretched from stak,e to stake about fifteen inches from the ground and the young plants encour aged to divide and go up on either side of the wire. In a few days another wire was stretched fifteen to eighteen inches above the first, and the tomato branches that grew up on the left side of the lower wire were encouraeed and persuaded to grow up on the right side ot the second wire and vice ver sa. When the third wire was added the vines were crossed again, or the prin cipal ones were crossed or woven into the wires so that the vines were an upright position. In short, th wires were the "warp" and the thrif ty tomato vines were the "fill-in" to this beautiful garden fabric. The vines speedily climbed to the top, five or siz feet tan, and then the madan went out with her little shears and snipped off the ends of the plants order to encourage a more liberal fruitage, for tomato plants are. some respects, like some individuals If let run at large without control the heads are held too high, and the growth runs all to vines and leaves often "nothing but leaves," but the pruning knife of adversity is needed oiten to bring fruit, so the madam pruned the plants and they yielded splendid fruitage.

HOW PLAGUE IS TRANSMITTED FROM RATS TO MAN BY MEANS OF FLEAS Rats are dangerous. They have no legitimate busines nor can they serve any good purpose in any community. Sanitarians are well agreed that rats are a serious menace to health. They are so filthy in their habits as ten ants of the sewers and as feeders on everything dirty and diseased that it is no wonder they are carriers of dis ease, parasite and plague infection. That rats are afflicted with many diseases more than bubonic plague Is confirmed by Dr. Rupert Blue, Sur geo General of the United States Public Health Service, who, speaking on this point, says: "Other infections of the rats are: Trematodes, or flukes; cestodes, or tape worms; nematodes, or round worms; protozoa; insects and vegeta ble microbes." Of the rats examined in San Fran cisco, 30 per cent were infested with tapeworms. ' Plague is primarily a disease of the rat. It is communicated from the plague stricken rat to other rats and from rats to man by means of fleas, as the prinicipal agent, though it has been determined many times that handling a rat that has been dead of plague only a few hours gives the in fection almost instantly. Two small bovs while nlavintr in an unused cellar, found the body of a rat. The corpse was buried with unusual funeral honors. In fortv-eieht hours both were ill with bubonic plague. A laborer finding a sick rat on the wharf picked it up with the naked hand and threw it into the bay. He was seized three days later with pla gue.. But the flea is the chief inocula- tor. Fleas abandon a rat dead of plague and go in search of living be ings who still have warm blood circu lating m their veins. Biting man, they inoculate into him the living vir us which starts the disease. Since plague is a disease due to rats and rat-fleas and not to filthy or dirty habits, there's only one thing tod o to avoid plague: eradicate the rat. Ihis can be done by making war on them with traps, poison and star vation, and by "rat proofing" against them; that is by building them out. As a result of the Chinatown Bla gue epidemic in 1907, so efficient was the rat proof constructions that fol lowed, that rats and nlacue were en tirely "built , out" of that part of the city. DISEASE PLAYS HAVOC WITH NORTH CAROLINA HOGS Washington, D.C.,. August 26. Diseases caused the swine breeders of North Carolina to lose 68,100 hogs, valued at $612,900 last year, according to a report which has just been issued by the Department of Agriculture. ' This is an average death rate of 50 per 1,000 head. During 1913 the ratio was 58 head per 1,000 and a to tal of 77,400 head were lost. The lat est census reports, which are dated January 1, 1914, show that there are 1,362,000 head of hogs in North Car olina and they are valued at $12,258, 000 or $9 per head. The farmers of the entire nation last year lost 7,004,800 head of hogs from disease. Their total value was $75,000,000, and the death rate 119 per 1,000. INFECTION AND INSECT BITES DANGEROUS Mosquitoes, flies and other insects, which breed quickly in garbage pails, ponds of stagnant water, barns, mus ty places, etc.are carriers of disease.
