PROTECTION ASKED
OF OFFICERS OF THE LAW!
Blockading and Retailing Going On
Near Smith in Upper Part of
Stokes, Which Interferes With
Public Worship—Appeal to Stokes
Authorities.
Hartman, Aug. 29.
Editor Reporter:
I have been requested by the
good Christian people along the
State line to write a few lines to
your paper against the liquor
wagons that are doing business in
the upper parts of Stokes. There
is some blockading also. The
people ask for protection through
your paper to the officers of the
law. There are from one to two
loads of liquor every Saturday
and Sunday doing business up
and down the State Line road,
and the people say they cannot
have any preaching hardly for
the drunkenness around, and they
want some of the officers to at
tend along the State Line roads
every Saturday and Sunday near
Smith, N. C.,- and they said they
did not want their names to it,
but you can use my name if you i
wish to. I
Yours respectfully,
A. T. OVERBY.

DEMONSTRATION CORN
Mr. W. P Ray's Patch Exciting Won
der and Enthusiasm —The Com
missioners Urged .to Appropriate
For the Extension of the Work.
Mr. W. P. Ray has the thanks
of the Reporter for a number of
the finest tomatoes we have seen
this year. Mr. Ray is one of
our best farmers. He' says his
"demonstration" acre of corn is
looking beautiful, and will yield
handsomely. There is a freak
stalk in the patch which many
have viewed with curiosity. It
is a forked stalk. The plant
runs up about four feet and then
prongs, each branch being 1 well
developed and each bearing an
ear of corn. Mr. Ray planted
18 inches apart, rows 44 feet
between, harrowed twice and
cultivated four times. He has
fertilized but lightly. On 180
stalks, 320 ears were counted.
Mr. Ray says the number who
will try the improved plan of
corn growing next year is large.
The people are enthusiastic over
it, and want the commissioners
to be sure to appropriate for the
extension of the work in the
county.

Error Corrected.
In the article regarding the
Farmers' Co-operative Demon
istration work, published in the
last issue of the Reporter, by
Mr. W. A. Petree, an error
occurred with reference to the
number of men engaged as
agents in the work. It should
have been 375, instead of 275.
The mistake was typographical.
Dysentery is a dangerous dis
ease but can be cured. Cham

cessfully used in nine epidemics
of dysentery. It has never been
known to fail. It is equally val
uable for children and adults,
and when reduced with water
and sweetened, it is pleasant to
take. Sold by all dealers.
