Of Walnut Cove.
Walnut Cove, July 27. In
a raid on the southbound
freight train Friday night two
negroes heavily laden with whis
key in jugs were captured by
officers R. W. Joyce. F. L. Tilley
and J. L. Redman. The officers
had been notified that almost
every night liquor was being
transported from Viginia to this
place and Winston-Salem by
parties who hoboed the freights.
Upon this information the
officers surrounded the train
which pulled into the station
about 11:00 P. M. and almost
immediately a swarm of the
"booze smugglers" emerged
from their hiding places and
made for the tall timber pursued
by the officers. More than twen
ty of the hoboes each carrying
two jugs strapped about his body
were chased from the cars. A
tall negro somewhat the worse
for liquor drew a revolver and
fired upon the officers at close
range. The fire was returned
and the negro was shot through
the shoulder by deputy sheriff
Joyce. The wounded prisoner
however made good his escape
while the officers were engaged
in getting a doctor to attend him.
Only two of the offenders were
arrested and these were com
mitted to jail to await the next
term of court.
A lawn party was given Thurs
day evening by the Ladies' Aid
Society on the beautiful lawn at
the Baptist church. The party

Germanton, July 2*».
Mr. Editor:
I wish to say a tW wdfiid
through your paper in behalf c»f
the work our county demonstra-
J tor is doing. I had him with
;me in the spring to show me
! how to terrace my land and I
| find after following his instruc
j tions I get good results. I have
j *
: had a great deal of trouble try
| ing to keep my land from wash
! ing until Mr. Holt instructed me
how to do it.
' I find that this is one of the
, things we must do if we wish to
improve our land and stop it
j from washing. Terracing land
jis only one of the many things
I Mr. Holt could give us good ad
| vice on. He can tell us how to
j feed our stock with less cost
| than many of us do, and many
iother things that would mean
j a great saving to us. Hoping
this letter will cause some one
else to ask his advice.

j i county. After a short time spent
jon his farm Mr. Reynolds went
ito Winston-Salem, where he at
a !
'i once began the manufacture of
