Lincoln Gave Him Scant Attention
1 first Nomination.
Lincoln. Neb., Corre3(ioodefce. .
Nothing so well illustrates the
difference in the estimation placed
upon William J. Bryan by the people
of his home town at the present
time from the estimation placed
upon the "Great Commoner" in for
mer years by these same people,
than does a comparison of the re
ception give Mr. Bryan by his neigh
bors on receipt of the news of his
latest nomination for President,
with the reception given him in for
mer 'years.
It was exactly 12 years to the day
between Mr. Bryan's first nomina
tion and that which he received at
the hands of the Denver convention.
Each came on July 10 -one in 189G;
the other in 1908.
The honors shown Mr. Bryan last
Friday by his neighbors and friends
are yet being written about in the
newspapers, which tell of the spon
taneous outburst of pride which
swept over the Lincoln people that
one of their own friends should be
named for the presidency; how
thousands of these Lincoln people
went out to Mr. Bryan's home at
Fdirview, not out of curiosity, but
to do honor to Bryan and his family;
and during the short speech-making
they told Mr.' Bryan how proud they
were of him as a citizen; how much
Lincoln loved him.
But not one of these Lincoln peo
ple reminded Mr. Bryan of the re
ception which greeted him; when he
came home fresh from the Chicago
convention with the nomination in
his pocket. At that time verily
"there were none so poor j as to do
him reverence." No brass band met
Bryan's train. No delegation of
prominent citizens called upon him
and presented the keys of the city.
The vast majority of Lincolnites
didn't know Mr. Bryan even by repu
tation much less by sight.!
"Who is this fellow Bryan J and
where does he live?" they askd one
another.- v A i
One-half the people didn't take
Bryan seriously, and this half laugh
ed at him. The other half did take
him seriously, and these scowled
when they even thought of him as a
possible President.
When at home, Bryan used to
spend a great deal of time on his
front porch. It was not the Fair
view home, but one out near the
State buildings in the city. The
neighbor's used to wpond jimh -twiw?
on their own porches, too, but the
Brvans were ignored.
When Bryan walked down the
street it was curious that almost
every man he met would just hap
Den to be deeply absorbed in some
thing occurring in another direction
and seould fail to see the "Commoner."-;
I-: "
When visiting, delegations of dis
tinguished men from other States
came to Lincoln to call upon Bryan,
the Lincolnites looked at them in
wonder that they would come so far
to see so little. And when delega
tions walked up the shady street on
which stood the Bryan residence,
those citizens who happened to be
on their own porches at that time
studiously avoided paying any at
tention whatever to the visitors.
But Mr. Bryan has longed lived
down this feeling. To-day he is by
far the most popular citizen of Lin
coln, whether amorfg Republicans or
Democrats. Nonpartisanly, Lincoln
feels that he is the one great cause
and excuse for Lincoln's presence on
the map, and Lincoln is grateful
both for the fame which Mr. Bryan
has brought to the town, as well as
proud of the fact that Bryan himself
is a citizen ot the place. All Lin
coln now delights to honor the man
it did not in 1896.
It is the desire of the North Caro
lina Geological and Economic Survey
to assist land owners to make their
timber lands profitable. It is diffi
cult, however, to give satisfactory
directions for the management of
timber lands by letter on account of
the different conditions existing j in
every T)iece of woodland. For this
reason the State Forestef will per
sonally examine lands when requested
to do so by the owners, provided
there are at least hve hundred acres
at one place to be examined. The
acreage need not necessarily belong
to one person The forester will give
the owners advice nd prepare plan
for them showinc the beat methods
of cutting andf protecting the timber
in order to make the yields more
profitable. 1
The future value of forests can be
greatly increased by better, methods
of management, this being especially
true of hardwood forests. One-tenth
of all the property in the State con
sists of timber lands and of industries
which are dependent upon them. and
nearly one-third of the total area of
the State is still in forest land, a con
siderable portion of which is not
suitable for farming purposes. It is
to the advantage of the land owners
who have timber lands that cannot
at once be cleared or which could
never be profitable cultivated that
these be put in the best possible con
dition for profitable timber growth."
There is little or no profit in produc
ing cord wood for sale (although
every farmer should produce enough
fur his own use); but desirable kinds
of timber that have not reached
their full growth will steadily in
crease in amount of timber and there
is apt to be a gradual but steady
advance in its price.

assistance, add ress the State Geologist

The fig is a fruit which is very far
from being appreciated. It is pecu

The natives would buy them because
they like them.
Some few days ago a colored boy

the streets. The fruit was sent by
one familv to another simply ias a
personal compliment. The boy? was
beset all the way by people who
wanted to buy the figs. I

The Picnic Month.
Augiwt Farm Journal.
This Is pre-eminently the picnic
month. The ruh of the harvest is
over and there is a lull before the
autumn seeding, and farmers takei
advantage or the bright summer
weather to meet in a social way.
Whatever else may be lacking on the
Drotrram. the picnic dinner never dis
appoints. And what. a contrast bei-
tween the reataurant lunch at tne
average summer amusement place
and the farmers dinner! Honest
butter? water and milk one is not
afraid to drink; chicken free from
all Suspicion of cold storage; . home
boiled ham free from all packing
house taint; and cakes and pies mix
ed with real lard, genuine butter.
and minus glucose and the other
adulterants with which the dweller
in town finds bs pastry loaded. In
short, the farmers' picnic dinner is a
dreamr while too often the quick
lunch of the town U a nightmare.

Many false idea exist as to the
barm done crops by birds, ami it is
safe to rely on tiie reports of men
who have killed great numbers of
them and have reported what kind

few birds do crops as much harm as
good-' ' '
!
The real cotton bear is the man
who ties himself up so that he has to
fit his crop when somebody else
sajfs do it. Another good speimen of
the genuine cotton bear is" the man
who has to sell cotton to buy some
