Mr. Kifer Thinks It Is Time A
Crusade Was Started Against the
Canines Running Al Large In
the County.
King, N.C., Jan. 30.
To Each and Every Citizen of
Stokes County:
Is it not time that we start a
crusade against the worthless
"" * dogs of this county that are run
ning at large and doing an un
limited amount of damage ?
Thousands and thousands of
dollars are the cost of the dam
- * ages they do each year and then
is it right that a person shall
keep a lot of these worthless
canines and when one of them
in a rabid state bites a person
there is nothing behind the dog
whereby you can get damages
f for the anxiety and cost the
' '• worthless dog causes your fam
ily? I hope every person in
Stokes county will take enough
interest in this matter at once to
write Hon. J. M. Fagg, at
Raleigh, to see that a dog law is
passes at this session of the Leg
islature, taxing every dog that
lives within the borders of
Stokes county, and sufficiently
large that we will rid ourselves of
, about 90 per cent or more of the
worthless things. Consider this
matter for a minute and see if
you can continue to take the
risk and, if some one of your fam-
B ily gets bitten by a rabid dog, pay
B the cost of carrying them to
H Raleigh for treatment, and
r that's nothing compared to the
1 restlessness and loss of sleep you
might have for a month, and
1 that is not all, you do not know
I that the one who is bitten will
ever get well. So do not neglect

Mr. Royster believed that success awaited the
Manufacturer of Fertilizers who would place quality
above other considerations. This was Mr. Royster's
idea Twenty-seven years ago and this is his idea
to-day; the result has been that it requires Eight
Factories to supply the demand for Royster Fertilizers*
