Gray. "We now(have an enrollment of nine hundred and forty-seven men with whom we conduct a correspondence course in regard to raising hogs and curing meat. The enrollment is spread over eighty-eight counties of the state with Wake county leading with a membership of one hundred and fifty six. Columbus is next with ninety- seven, and Sampson third with sixty eight. Mecklenburg, Cleveland and Duplin all have good enrollments and we are trying to give each member of the clubs all the information we can in regard to raising pork. The work last season was very beneficial and a phase of our extension work that is paying good profits." "Where ia Huerta?" inquires an ex change.

Newton Enteral he. 20th. At a call for the ministers of the county to gather at Newton on July 19 to consider the subject of Sabbath observance, a number of clergymen were present It was resolved to issue tho following- resolutions: Whereas, the key to Christianity is most truly a day of sacred rest, and the Sabbat', day is still a moral obli- fation, sanctioned not only by the en Commandments but by the Sav iour himself. Whereas, the scriptures and human History reveal the fact that obedience to the Sabbath law has always brought the blossirig of God, and its Desecia tion has invariably been avenged by the oamo Almighty hand. Whereas, the present trend of pub lic life is making fearful inroads on the religious life of our communities especially by Sabbath desecration, and prooauiy Because of Sabbath dosacra tion. Bo it resolved, that we as Rervnnts of God and leaders in part of the re ligious work of this county, do solemn ly warn the people and tho churches me sui oi oreuKin? tne sud- bath by business or recreation or en gaging in anything that takes the piaee ot rest and worship on the Sab bath and ure thr.t eac'i bead of a family and each individual, and all employers and employees feel the in dividual responsibility for this mat te. We realize after all that the pe-son-al obligation and sence of moral ac counability must be aroused. If mat ters go on as they are catactrophes and calamities are sure to befall our homes and communities irreligion and infidelity are sure to cpr?aj through out our land. We would alno supeect thit cur min isters of all the churches preach on this matter at an early opportunity. as it has in public health matters and interest. Already North Carolina knows the value of her farm demon strators and she is using them. She has realized that they pay. She has found that in the end they are a pay ing investment Consequently several counties are employing as many as four demonstrative agents, two in the farm demonstrative work proper, and two in that line ot farm work that con cerns women canning, scientific house keeping, dairying, etc. A few counties, we believe, have progressed equally along other lines m health and educational matters as well as in farm work and other ma terial interests. But this is only a few as is evidenced by the fact that there are only ten whole time health officers in the State as against sixty three whole time farm demonstrators. In other words health work and interest in North Carolina are a generation behind the times. It is no wonder that some of her citizens who are just hav ing their eyes opened are humiliated at her high death rate and the posi tion she holds in health work, as com pared with more progressive states where health matters nave not been deferred as the last item and of least importance. visitors from this state to the Panama-Pacific Exposition have declared themselves mortified at North Caroli na's disgraceful high death rate. They say that this fact is practically all that the Old North State has to represent her there, and they wonder why this is so. They are puzzled to know the explanation of her unevitable position. Be this said in her favor, however, that her death rate is probably not the highest in the union but the high est of the registration area. This area comprises only thenty four states and only tour ct these are southern states, having elm ate and health conditions similar to those of. North Carolina. The three Southern States in the reg istration ?rea besides North Carolina are Missouri, Kentucky and Virginia. But on big fact remains as regards her progress in health matters and that is her people are not yet interest ed in health work to the same extent that they are interested in other mat ters in her material prosperity, for instance. They don't yet see where money spent on the prevention of dis ease is worth more than money spent on sickness and death. They haven't yet seen that whole time health officers are as profitable as whole time farm demonstrators; and not until they put a greater value on health and on the profits to be derived from money val ue on health, will North Carolina ex punge her record of her unenviable po . sitioif. ... MARKETING THE FARM EGGS. -Press Bulletin,,. . , The families of the cities wunt stric tly fresh eggs, they are tired of stor age eggs and eggs sold them strict ly fresh country eggs which are not, (the writer having lived in the city for more than 20 yerrs speaks from experience) and they are willing o pay the highest prices for them. Will you da'iver to them this first class product ? Now with the parcel post it is within your power to come in direct touch with the city consumer. How are you going to reach them ? Most farmers look upon eggs as by-product of the farm and in many instances the hens are compelled to forage themselves and are not provid ed with proper shelter, feeding and care When the hens forage for a living and go without care it may be true that the money their products bring in is clear gain but on the other hand if they were properly cared for, water ed, fed and housed they could be made one of the most profitable branches of the farm. They should be placed on the Visis trey dosfcrve. The 'osses to the egg industry which are voidable i.i about 17 per cent-and includes rotten, stale, held ,dirty, heat ed and cracked eggs. Don't keep broody hens around the nests used for laying hens. A broody hen is not a profitable hen and if she js not needed for sitting and brooding purposes break her up at once don't put her off from day to day until fi nally she gets discouraged and gives up herself. If she is broken up from setting she should return to laying in about ten days. Don't keep mongrels or pullets that don't reach maturity "j "j winmr. n.eep ciean nesting material in the nests as soiled eggs don't present a pleasing appearance to the city buyer and don't pay so much for them. Provide special rooms for the setting hens and keep the room closed so they will not be molested. Collect the eggs twice daily in hot weather. Store the eggs in a clean, dry cool room and market them twice a week. Sell your eggs in attractive packages and sell on a cash basis de livering only clean, fresh and large eggs. The eggs should weigh at least 24 ounces to the dozen. Under such conditions you will find It profitable. Egg circles are being formed. Every community in North Carolina should of the fact that: "The Democratic party has made a record of which it has reason to be proud," and in a sign ed article declared that Republican solicitude for the Democracy is un necessary, that it is not a party of dis cord. There have been those who have been insistent that the withdrawal of Mr. Bryan from the position of Sec retary of State meant a break be tween him and President Wilson which would split assunder the Democratic party, and tend to Republican success, doing this in the face of the explicit reasons which Mr. Bryan gave for his resignation, some of them being still at it. The Republican press has been particularly rampant upon this matter but they have built up figures of straw to tear to pieces as they wished. In this connection Mr, Bryan's utterances in the current number of The Com moner should end their clatter, for these ring clear and to see the point as those who read will recognize, his signed article headed "Republican Soli citude Unnecessary," being: "The Republican press has seized upon Mr. Bryan's resignation as an excuse for giving expression to a vast amount of unnecessary solicitude. The editors who have made it their busi ness for several decades to point out the menace involved in Democratic success are now lying awake nights worrying about the possibility of dis cord in the Democratic household. In somnia is such a frightful disease that the Democrats, out of human sympathy if for not other reason, ought to exert themselves to allay these fears. What is there in Mr. Bry an's resignation that can give hope or encouragement to a Republican? No personal element enters into it; it was simply an irreconciliable difference of opinion as to the methods to be em ployed for settling a dispute which had arisen between this country and Germany. Unless the veracity of both the President and Mr. Bryan is to be impeached the sole cause of resigna tion is set forth in the letter of resig nation and in the letter of accepting it "This is not like a Republican quar rel over office it is not a conflict be tween to ambitions. In other words it is not a Chicago (Republican) contest, with two men splitting the party rath er than that either should surrender to the other the prize which thev both coveted. The fact that the Republicans and Progressives are "getting together without any change in principle or policy shows that it was not a prin ciple or policy that ruptured the party. "The President and his Secretary of State were seeking to promote peace but they differed as to the methods most likely to result in peace. They agreed to disagree they separated, each respecting the other's position. Their purposes have not changed their zeal for the party's welfare has not abated they are alike wedded to the principles and policies for which tne Democratic party stands. "The Republicans are singularly dull of comprehension if they think that the diference between the Presi dent and Mr. Bryan willredound to the benefit of the Republican party." THE SINNER AND SAINT. Years ago when the preacher was new in the work, he hud among his flock a member who was a type of what is to be found in nearly every tun' cKiiuun, tne tamer or a lamily of bright boys and girls, with a wife worthy of the best of men. He was a model member for the most part a reg ular attendant at church and prayer meeting, well versed in the history of the church, a strict observer of the Sabbath, forbidding cards in his house, and having family prayers regularly. Once or twice a year however, he fell into drink and when the spell was on him, nothing could stop him until he wound up in delir ium tremeus.Then he would come forth penitent, and resume his exemplary life, only to repeat it at regular in ter'als. The pastor prayed for him and pleaded with him; but it was all in vain. It had become a disease ana ne was as powerless jn its grasp as if he had the fever. This pastor had also 'another mem berthe mother of vonno- .hiiHrn upon whom she bestowed every care. turn wo itpur in every cnurch duty a member of all church societies, a' member of the choir, and .a support to her pastor in every good work . Like Naaman. however, all qualities were followed by a "butt" She was a gossip and the reputation of no one was safe when she took it in hand. Her tongue was long and keen, and tenderness seemed to have been left out of her make-up. The poor sinner with his freqeunt lapses was her favorite subject and one of his performances lost evidence by her recital of them. After each spree of the sinner, the pastor became the object nf her attacks because he did not turn him out of the church. Finally the pastor, in self-defense informed her that he be lieved that a poor diseased man, with an unnatural craving for drink which THE MIDDLE GROUND. Charlotte Observer. Mure than one paper has com mented the nast few days on the pe culiar position President Wilson oc cupies between an ex-President and a thrice-candidute for President.

But a board of inventors does not make a Navy. Perfect plans for battleships, cruis ers, destroyers, submarines and hv- dro-aeroplanes are useless unless Congress can be persuaded that we need more ships, more officers and more men.

Fairbrother's Everything. Sure as a gun is iron it takes Place and Opportunity to inspire a man to say things and do things. We have heard him in the Senate of the United States when he held his brother sen ators in close attention but we heard him a few weeks ago in San Francisco, and it was the speech of his life. The occasion was a banquet given by the United states Government to the Com missioners General of the thirty-three foreign countries represented at the txposition. The Commissioners from these for eign countries the Governor of New York noted men were in the audience and they were to speak. Senator Over man looked over the audience of some 250 odd people the banquet room was a picture such as you read about a wilderness of American beauties the music was inspiring and the occasion was international. Japan was there France had spoken all the foreign countries were there and Overman's theme was Wilson and Peace. We watched the guests and saw that each one was all attention. He receiv ed more applause than he had ever re ceived and after the banquet all pres ent congratulated him. It made us feel good to know that we had a North Carolinian who could do what Overman did to know that he was our representative in the Senate of the United States. The banquet was neid at the rairmont Hotel and North Carolina was kept on the map all right by that notable speech. The editor of the Wendell Times in Wake County is advocating the use of fruit trees as shade trees on the streets of the town. The Times says that thereby will be found the cheapest and best plan for advertis ing tne town ana mat more will be thus accomplished for the attarction of people to Wendell than by any other scheme that can be devised. This would be mighty nice. The hungry sojourner in Wendell would have nothing more to do thun reach up and pluck his breakfast or dinner from the overhanging boughs. It would then be a town of Utopian de light.
