THE ONE SURE WAY
to have money is to save it. The one 6ure way to save it ia
by depositing it in a responsible bank. You will then be ex
empt from the annoyance of having it burn holes in your
pockets, and aside from the fact that your money will be safe
from theft, the habit of saving tends to the establishment of
thrift, economy, discipline and a general understanding of
business principals essential to your success.
To those wishing to establish relations with a safe, strong
bank, we heartily extend our services.

8. H. Hobbi ia Progressive Farmer.
Millions of dollars are lost in the
South annually by improper methods
of cultivation at "laying-bacH" time.
The three great mistakes that many
farmers make, are: (1) Layinr-by
too early. (2) cultivating too deep,
and (3) plowing too wet. '
The first of these will cause tne
cotton to have a stunted growth and
become foul and grassy if we have a
wet fall. 1 have seen some very fine
prospects very much injured by the
owner's getting in too big a hurry
to lay-by; and my observation has
been that where one cotton patch
has been hurt by plowing too late,
ten have been hurt by quitting too
early. The cotton should be culti
vated until it has reached sufficient
size to shade the ground so as to pre
vent the growth of all weeds and
grass that may come up afterwards.
Deep cultivation should never be
resorted to at this time. The culti
vation of cotton should always be
rapid and shallow. Use no instru
ment that tears up th little white
root-hairs. Never practice the bar
barous methods of using a turn plow
to lay-by with. No up-to-date farm
er will be guilty of such a blunder.
Whenever you see a so-called farmer
laving-by cotton with a turn plow or
any other too akin to it. he is gen
erally trying to hide a multitude of
sins in the bhape of crab grass, the
result of former improper cultiva
tion. Always lay-by the cotton as
nearly level as practicable. It will
suffer less by drought and no more
by wet. Any good cultivator with
sweeps will do the work effectively.
Land so wet that ridge farming has
to be resorted to had better be plant
ed in some other crop.
It is never too dry to plow cotton.
It is always hurtful to plow when
wet. Perhaps kthis is, next to the
improper preparation 01 tne land.
the most costly mistake cotton farm
ers make.
Honey Kept 25 Years.
Sampson Democrat.
Mr. Ira D. Alderman, of Taylor's
Bridge township, sent us last week a
sample of honey that he had kept
sealed up for 25 years, having kept
put in a honey tumbler on the 18th
of June, 1884. The first winter after
it was put up the honey sugared, but
it melted the following summer and
has not sugared since. It was very
light and clear, but with age it dark
ened until it is now about the color
of dark molasses. We can't Bay that
age improves its taste; indeed we
prefer it fresh. Mr. Alderman is
very successful in bee culture, and
has this year taken 75 gallons from
seven colonies of bees.
Senator Taylor, of Tennessee, re
cently enlivened the Senate proceed

country had been decimated by war,

taxation this world has ever known.
and we were in bad plight. We
were in the condition of the good old
praying member of the church who
was afflicted all at once with every
disease in the catalogue. He had
rheumatism and aneurism and cur
vature of the spine and, was finally
striken with paralysis; but after
months of suffering he got better,
and went shambling one evening to
prayer meeting. The old preacher
rose and said, 'Now, brethren, I
want us to have a good time here to
night. I want every one of you to
get up and tell what the Lord has
done for you. There is brother
Jones, God bless him; he has been af
flicted and hasn t been with us in
many months. Brother Jones, get
up and tell what the Lord has done
for you.' Brother Jones arose and
hobbled out in the aisle, and said
'Well, he's about rumt me.

WHEN AND HOW TO
TON.
WHAT THE POOR MAN CAN DO.
Pro rewire Farmer.
We know it is hard nay, impos
sible for a man with small eapital
to farm as be should ; but it U this
man above all men, who needs to do
better farming. This man, who has
to work hard to make a scanty liv
ing, .and who is not able to get
ahead, w the roan of all others whom
we are most eager to help. But
when a man says, "I can't get pure
bred stock, or build a rilo, or boy a
two-horse cultivator, and therefore
all this talk about bettering farming
does not apply to me," he takes a
very wrong view of the chances he
has.
All these things can come only to
the man who. has made some- prog
ress, and who has some capital. The
very poor farmer must begin with
the little thinrs which will add to his
income, and gradually work into
better methods. It is the man who,
having two or three pigs, tries to
find out the most economical way of
feeding them; who, with a small
flock of poultry, will try to care for
them so as to get more eggs during
the winter ; who, with two or three
head of stock to feed, will try to
raise a larger part of his feed at
home ; who, with a poor soil, will try
to improve at least a little of it each
year this is the type of man who
will understand that even if be can
not do the best farming, he can do
better farming, and who will con
tinue to improve year by year. A
man not be able to buy a manure
spreader may not need it, in f act-
but he can and does need to take
care of the little manure he has. A
man may have only one horse and
one cow to feed, but he can at least
grow peavine hay for them and save
the buying of much high-priced corn.
A man may not be able to sow his
whole farm to crimson clover, but
he can put out one acre this very
fall. He may not be able to start
all at once with the rotation his land
needs, but he can begin by putting
a few acres in legumes instead of
cotton or corn.
It is the man who is eager and
willing to improve along the lines in
which improvement is possible fcr
him who will, by this gradual im
provement, surely add to his income
and make -more profitable farming
possible with each new year. i
Churh Membership in Charlotte.
Charlotte Chronicle. i
The church membership of Char
lotte, according to a carefully pre
pared article - published elsewhere?
is 11.402. This bare statement is
sufficient to justify Charlotte's wide-
srread reputation as a church going
town. Analyzing the figures, we
find that the Presbyterians, leaving
out the Psalm-singers, are in the
lead by a close shave, having a ma
jority of but 66 members over the
Methodists, but adding the Associa
ate Reformed membership, the Pres
byieriens of the "city have over 1,000
members in excess of any other de
nomination. The Methodists have
made remarkable gains and now
occupy a strong position in the
church world of Charlotte, having a
membership of 3,601. But the
growth of the Baptist congregation
in Charlotte breaks all records.
Twenty years ago, the Baptiita had
but one small church and a poorly
paid preacher. Mow they have a
membership of 1,995 and the finest
church building, not only in Char
lotte, but in the State. Sjme Char
lotte people can remember when the
Catholics in thi3 city could be count
ed on the fingers of one hand Now
the Catholics have a membership of
1,200, have an elegant church, a fine
educational institution and a well
equipped hospital.
Fears Confirmed.
An old-couple lived in the moun
tains of eastern Tennessee ; he was
ninety-five and she ninety. Their
son, a man of seventy, died. As the
old folks crossed the pasture to their
cabin after the burial the woman
notiaed a tear roll down her hus
band's cheek. She patted him ten
derly on the arm and said : .
"Never mind, John, never mind ;
VI t .

would raise that boy.
The Kansas farmer who posted
the following notice to trespassers
about his corn field evidently "meant
business:" "Notis Trespaser in my

seeder may be short on education,
but we bet he is long on determina
tion.

Small Truck farming Days.
Charlotte Chronicle.
The Greensboro Patriot prints a re
port of a farmer near Mount Airy
who makes $300 a year from grow
ing vegetables on an acre of ground,
in addition to supplying his family
table. As The Patriot says, this is
not an unreasonable statement but
it is an apt illustration of what may
be done by any intelligent and indus
trious man who owns or has in his
control a small tract of land. To
succeed in farming it is no longer
necessary for one tp possess a vast
plantation. - A snutll truck farm lo
cated near town (and good roads
greatly increase the distance at which
a farm may be said to be near the
market) will yield a handsome pro
fit to any frugal and industrious
man. The Patriot tells of men in
Guilford countv who own good prop
erty in Greensboro that was paid for
from the proceeds of vegetables,
fruit and poultry products sold on
the Greensboro market. There can
be no doubt of the fact that the
average farmer is in a better posi
tion to-day than the average town
man, and we would impress this
fact upon the mind of every country
youth who has a desire to give up
life on the for an existence in town.

Sometimes a good f niton Is lost
becaoae the preacher fails to hit hit
folks. We have heard sermon
agaanst dancing and card playing in
communities that didn't know
"Flinch" from "Setrea Up," and in
which nobody ever got beyond the
"pigeon-winir." We hava heard
fierce tirades against pride hurled at
people who didn't hare half pride
enough. In fact we have rarely
heard pride denounced in fashionable
churches; the plain people who live
simple lives catch it coming and go
ing. It is entirely safe, it is even
popular, to , berate the children of
fashion among people who arc unfanh
tonabie. And instead ox accompluth-
ing any good result it only confirm
the congregation in the belief tha
they are holier than their DromiLent
neighbors because they are so hum
ble. The best preaching in the
world ia the plain, unvarnished gos
pel preached to people who need it.
The preacher need not be so fear
fully "candid" as to be harsh rnd of
fensive. The truth itself may be o
rudely preached as to fail to accom
plish the results intended. But the
point we are trying to impress U
that the preacher, if he be true to
his mission, mutt deal faithfully with
his floe and tell them of the sins.

on profanity moat timely and telling.
but it was robbed of all its strength
toward the last by the statement
that the congregation to whom the
sermon was addressed were to a
large extent free from the vile habit
of taking the Lord's name in vain.
The truth is. the town in which that
sermon was preached is noted for the
profanity of its people, and in that
very congregation are many people
who swear. If that last unfortunate
and untrue statement had been left
off it would have been very practical
preaching; as it was it was nothing

Ihe Near Beer M.
News and Observer.
The Georgia Legislature is in the
throes of a m'ghty trouble over near
beer. The State last year received
revenue of about $250,000 from li
censing near beer establishments
and an effort is being made to amend
the law by giving near beer a solar
plexus. Governor Brown has prom
ised to veto any amendment to the
prohibition law, : but the fight ia to
pass the bill over his veto. No veto
power is often fn the way.
In North Carolina, under the ores-!
ent law, the sale of the beverage can !
not be forbidden, but its sale in some
places is demoralizing and is the
cloak for selling whiskey and real
beer. The city authorities should
put stringent regulations around
the license, and should be certain to
include in any license "provided that
f in any place where near beer is
icensed to be sold, the license termi
nates if any intoxicants are served
in the place or any drinking of in
toxicants is ; permitted on the prem
ises.
At present, if it is shown that in
toxicants were served in a near beer
establishment the claim is made that
the party drinking brought the in
toxicants in the place with him and
the proprietor only served the ice
glass. That loop-hole enables the
person guilty to escape conviction
