NORIfl STATE NOTES Many Newsy Items Gathered From all Sections. Case Compromised. Spencer, Special.—Mr. E. P. Sowers, of this place, administrator of the estate of Earl J. Sowers, his son, who v/as killed in a wreck near Ral eigh about six months ago, has effect ed a settlement with the Southern Railway by which Mr. Sowers re ceived $6,000 damages on account of the killing of his son. It is learned that the claim was compromised and that the settlement was satisfactory to all parties concerned. At the time of the fatal accident young Sowers was working as a brakeman and was caught on an alleged defective box car and thrown Jiigh in the air, land ing on his head, cav.sir.g inpurics from which ho -tied v/thin a few hours. The deceased was highly thought o? by those who knew him. SOUTHERN fARM <■ fl0T£S. TOPICS OF INTEREST TO THE PLANTER, STOCKMAN ANO TRUCK GROWER Wilmington Boy Drowned. Wilmington. Specinl.—While bathing with a number of companions in Northeast river, near Hilton l.e.-M^re, Thursday afternoon, the 12-ycar-ol;l son of Policeman E. R. Chadwick was drowned. The boys had .i’.’st gone in bathing and young Chadv.iok exclaim ed, “I am going to dive and get l)ot- toni.” He plunged beneath the surface, but never came up. The presumption is that he came up under the timber raft which over-spread the surface near where the hoys were swimming. The body has not been recovered. Sal© of Hosiery Mills. Fayetteville, Special.—The Lafayette Hosiery Mills, which have been in the hands of Mr. R. H. Dye as receiver, have been purchased by Mr. F. II. Cot ton, an experienced mill man, formerly superintendent of the Hope Mills Manufacturing Company. Mr. Cotton is moving the plant to the buildings of the old Cumberland !Manu- facturing Company, which he v,'ill en large, ptri in now machinery, and m.'.nufacture hosiery on a large scale. North State Briefs. Governor Aycock on Friday com muted to life imprisonment in tha penitentiary Archie Upscombe, of Granville county, who was convicted of killing a negro '‘conjurer.” v/ho he thought had planned to do him in jury. Dr. Miller, cf the Eastern Hos pital for the Insane, went to Oxford and examined Lipscombe and report ed to the government that he was of weak mind and very superstitious There was some feeling against Lips combe, nut only on the part of the negroes, but on that of a number of the white people and it was thought best to get him quickly and quietly to the penitentiary, so be Avas taken there a little after 7 o’clock this af ternoon. It is rather odd that the whites should have been bitter against Lipscombe, but they were so dis posed. The Corporation Commission Friday issued its report on the State, private and savings banks up to June 9. The report shoi^d resources aggregatiLg $29,416,580. The capital stock is $4,- 771,704; surplus fund $G77,348; undi vided profits $954,200: deposits sub ject to check $17,08?-'*95. The trust deposits aggregate $l,iil8,428. The re port shows that only $70 of United States bonds are held and only $39,- 560 of North Carolina State bonds. A charter is granted to the new Bank of Yancey, at Burnsville, to do a commercial business, the capital stock being $10,000. In the election at Charlotte, N. C., Tuesday, prohibition carried by 485 ma jority over both the saloon and dispen sary. The dispensary vote was very light.

Rone meal a.» » Fcrlilizer. Mr. fJroomo. of Warrenton, Va.. r*‘- conily wrote the Bureau of Soils, at Washington for an exjilanation of the reason for the long continnod ai*pre- ciable boiu'tit derived from the appli cation of raAV bone meal as u f(>rtil- izer. The folloAA'ing is the r('pl.v re ceived from the soil chemist, and will no doubt be read Avith interest: In reply to .A'our faA'or of the 12th Inst., I Avould sa.v that Ave recognize that such fertilizers as bone meal Avill Four white children were burned to continue to exercise an influeuct* over death in their home at Raleigh, N.

At Ltmiberton Insurance Commis sioner Young secured the arrest of a man named Roberts, from Chicago, v/ho was representing the Order of Washington, which has no Icense in North Carolina. There is only one vacancy in the National Guard in this State, due to the disbandonment of the Reidsville company. A company at North Wilkesboro is endeavoring to get the vacancy. The naval militia of .this State is crops for a considerable len.gth of time. But taking fertilizers in gen eral, and especially the more soluble ones, it seems to be a general laAv that they prove most beneficial in the in itial sta.ges of plant groAvth before the phints have developed a largo an<l vig orous root s.vstem and are. in a sc^nso. better adapted to looking out for their own food supplies. RaAV bone meal is essentially cal- olnni pliosphate, and is slightl.v .solii- I)lo itselL Fdit it is oiip of a clas.'< of substances which is readily acted upon and decomposed by water, forming, in this case, lime and phosphoric acid: and while the lime goes into solution to blit a very slight extent, a fairly large amount of phos])horic acid is dis- certainly well equpped so far as arms 1 solved.

President Vv'almsley, of th(‘ XeAv England Cotton MamU’ac- tm-crs* Association, in a recent speech before' a meeting of that body. d3« clai-('d "that the supply of cotton from om- li(‘Ids must be increased.” Why? That the groAvers may receive greater rewards? Not much! That the trade ma.v Ite free from “unlawful high pricc's.’’ That is the slogan every- Avhori'. “Raise more and sell for less.’* Not so with Up-to-Date. We waut the farmei s to produce all the world needs, all it will consume—at a fair price, and let tiie toil of the producer be reAvard- ed tirst. Under no circumstances do Ave Avant them to produce so nnich that it puts them at the mercy of spec ulators and capitalists. We also want to see farmers in a coiuliiion Avhere, if they over-produce one year they ma.v hold the surplus on the farm anti brii'K it forth in seasons of .soan-it.v. This will be much better tliaa Itolding surpliisses—whether real or only tem porary—in elevators or warehouses.— Up-to-Date Farming.
