In view.' of' the recent unpleasant ness between Gaston and MeckTenburg over the matter of settling the disputes as to bridging the Catawba river, the comparative fighting strength of Gas ton, and Mecklenburg might be of. in terest. Gaston thinks she can hold her own provided the bridges are not too wide and. the enemy pours into her borders with too much swiftness. Gas ton . has 3,545 white polls,' Mecklen burg, 5,466. Neither has any Indian fighters. Gaston has 91 4 colored polls and Mecklenburg 2,355. It will be seen that Mecklenburg has the advant age, as to numbers, but when the Mecklenburgers come to Gaston bent on any mischief their gallantry is captured by the beauty of Gaston girls and their valor Is chilled against Gas ton. This counts for much. Tne two opposing armies would be armed to the advantage of Gaston, the value of Gaston fire arms being $8,568 and Mecklenbursr $6,845. In easing the wounded Gaston would have the ad vantage she has $13 worth of whis key and Mecklenburg none. To spur on the soldiers across the bloody chasm of the Catawba, Mecklenburg would "have $63,054 worth of musical Instruments and Gaston to cheer the opposing forces $54,658. The value of lands in Gaston would -be greater than that of Mecklenburg, $5,207,228 to $2,967,124. In horses and muies for the cavalry . Mecklenburg would haev the advantage, about 8,000 to 5,000. As an offset to the advantage ln number of horses, there would be 23 "skldoo" number of Mecklenburg's generals riding "Baalam" to 10 of Gaston's. Mecklenburg's host would drink the milk from 137 goats and 10,289 cows, while Gaston soldiers would drink from 28 goats, 7.303 cows. Mecklenburg would have the advant age of Gaston in "hogginess" 7,907 to 6.401, and in sheeplness 602 to 567. Three huundred and nine Gastoners would be on. bicycles, 90 of which would be followed by howling canines and 33" Mecklenburgers would be on wheels but It Is not given the num ber of canines. Gaston would have $573,631 cotton in lint and seed, while Mecklenburg had $24,246. Mecklen burg has lots the most town lots, mon ey on deposit, bank stocks and goods, but they, are not muniments of war. No. Gaston Is resting calmly unsus pecting any harm from such foreign Invasion. Her equipment is enough to vanquish any but the most formid able foe and. the Gaston Guards at Dallas will see that no Gaston soil is appropriated by Mecklenburg. Eggs More Plentiful in Xewbern.

The drying is by a system of hot and. cold air generat ed by a fan eleven feet ln diameter. Thia system reduces waste to a min imum.' -"Mr. Carson figures that he saves about 50 per cent in labor with these up-to-date methods.

Before examination, people generally took it for granted that the peach crop was killed; but afterward to the surprise of investigators, it de velops that such is not the case. The escape of the buds is attributed to the idea that they have become inured to the. chilly weather.
