RAIN IN MANY SECTIONS
Saturday and Monday Showers
Visited The County, Greatly Re
freshing the Crops—Tobacco Im
proving Fast, Wheat Crop Ex
cellsnt, Corn Fine.
Since the last issue of the Re
porter refreshing rains have visi
ted various sections of the coun
ty, tremenduously improving
crop prospects, and carrying re
lief to thousands of hearts. At
Danbury it rained a good soak
ing rain for something like an
hour, while at Walnut Cove the
fall was even more copious. The
same news comes from many
other neighborhoods. On Mon-!
day night good rains fell in the
Brown Mountain country. While
the rains have not been as gen
eral and as prolonged as farmers
would wish for, yet they have
proved of incalculable benefit to
the growing crops. Tobacco that
had been set out. and which was
in many places seriously langu
ishing, has taken a start to
grow, and is now looking well.
Many farmers took advantage of
the season to set out the balance
of their plants, which they had
been laboriously keeping alive
by watering for weeks. It is
now believed that the tobacco
crop will'not be more than one
i third short in the county.
Corn is looking fine, while a
most excellent crop of wheat is
stacked waiting for the thresh
'ers. Hay is fairly good, oats
. poor.
LATER (Wednesday).
| Last night a splendid rain
j visited Danbury and, as far as
can be learned, was distributed
over a wide extent of the coun
ty, especially to the north-east
and east.

Messrs. Editors : «
We read in the last week's
issue of the Reporter that the
Danbury baseball team was
going to play some other team
; for the championship of the

I where Walnut Cove is ? We
put a challenge iu the Reporter
saying that we would play any
team in the county, but we did
not hear from anybody. And
if Danbury wants to play any
body for the championship of
the county why Walnut Cove
wants a whack at them too.

IN ROWAN COUNTY RECENTLY
Mrs. C. A. Rczzell Knocked Into
Insensibility and Robbed The
Bank Is the Place to Keep Money-
Mrs. C. A. Rozzell, of Rowan
county, was knocked into insen
sibility last Thursday night,
while the house was robbed of a
considerable sum of money and
other valuables. Mrs. Rozzell's
husband was absent from home,
and she was sleeping with a two
year old child.
It always pays best to keep
| money in the Eank. It is a very
rare thing that a bank has ever
lost any money for a depositor,
and a well managed bank is ab
solutely safe. But when you lie
down at night with your money
hid away in the house, you are
doing a mighty risky thing. If
you keep money in your house,
there is certain to be some one
who knows it, and it will be
talked around. It invites scoun
drels to rob you when you least
1 expect it, and often murder pre
j cedes or follows robbery.
The Bank of Stokes County is
| keeping thousands of dollars
! safely for many men, women and
children of Stokes county, and
the beauty of it is that while
their money is being kept safe,
the Bank pays them 4 per cent,
interest for the use of the money,
yet standing ready to pay over
the principal and interest at any
time.
Try banking your money.
Don't stand back because you
have not so much. We have
depositors from SI.OO to SI,OOO.
We take any amount, large or
small. Try it today—don't wait.
