The Year Has Been One of Large Yields In North Carolina Raleigh, Dec. 2. The State Board of Agriculture this after noon heard the annual report of Commissioner of Agriculture W. A. Graham, which reviewed most interestingly the progress and work of the past year and presented important recom mendations. He declared that the year just closing has been one of large yields for almost every crop raised in the State for commerce. The wheat crop he declared to have been the largest in quantity and finest in quality on record for this State, being, he believes, eight million bushels instead of seven million bushels credited to the State by the government re ports. The corn crop will prob ably reach sixty million bushels. The cotton crop he estimated at one million bales, oats, peanuts, sweet potatoes and apples are fine. Irish potatoes being about the only crop that shows any deficiency. The commissioner asserts that but for the disturbance in com merce by the war the farmers, with the good yields and fair prices realized the past two years, should be in good financial condition, but he fears the habit of buying on credit, which has been so long practiced and be i come chronic is a great handicap. [He mentioned with especial gratification that feeds imported into the State that should have been grown here the past year dropped to twenty million dollars' worth compared with sixty mil-1 lion dollars worth four years ago. j EDITOR OLIVER IS DEAD He Was One of Rocking ham's Prominent Demo crats and Was a Deputy- Revenue Collector.

IDA DOGGETT. HATTIE DOGCETT. Teachers, j A Nervous Wreck iC-Stroebc. R. F. '• Appleton, Wis. Her letter reads: "I began using Peruna a. i few months ago when my health and ; strength were all gone, and I was 1 nothing but a nervous wreck. Could | not sleep, sat or rest properly, and \ felt no desire to live. "Three bottles of Peruna made me look at life In a different light, as I began to regain my lost strength. While my Tecovery took nearly four months, at the end of that time I was better than I ever had been before. I had a splendid color and never weighed more In my life. "I certainly think Peruna is with out a rival as a tonic and strength builder, and It has my endorsement." Mr. Charles Brown. R. R. 4. Box 71, Rogersvllle, Tenn., writes: "I hava tried many different remedies, but have found that Peruna la the ereat est tonic on aarth, «nd ft perfect ay a. ; ten* ballder." I Reserve Banks Will Do Good. I New \ork, Dec. J]. Panic due ! to distruct of banks has been re- I legated to the museum of anti quities by the new reserve bank ing system, is the opinion of C. S. Hamlin, governor of the Federal rpserve board, voicedi this afternoon in a speech before the New \ ork Chamber of Com-! merce. Mr. D. C. Taylor, a merchant of Sandy Ridge Route 1. was a visitor here Friday. I TOBACCO AND WAR. ! Grear Britain Has No Idea of Making it Contraband of j War. New York World. Great Britain's assurance that jit has no intention to declare to ; bacco contraband has more than commercial importance. It makes I for solace and comfort and it may ! promote peace. I An article that is not contra ! band may be freely shipped to all ! countries. Germans and Austri lans aswellas British, French and j Russians may supply themselves J with America's choicest weed without fear of interruption of the high seas. Controlling most of the ocean routes as it now does, Great Britain in this matter is at least humane and possibly philan thropic. I What greater cruelty could it inflict upon its armed enemiea than to deprive them of tobacco? If an American trader appeared in the North Sea with a cargo of foodstuffs, clothing and shoes destined to Germany, his gooda might be seized as conditional I contraband, for there would be a J suspicion that they might find I their way to the army. A ship- I load of tobacco, however, its I freight practically certain to go straight to the trenches, would be I passed by the watchful cruisers of Albion without protest. Soldiers can fight for a lime without food, with little clothing and in bare feet, but an army in the trenches without tobacco for a day would be lost.
