1 : iMl JhT HERE SHALL THE PRESS, THE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS MAINTAIN; UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN.' VOLUMN XL MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5. 1910. NUMBER 20. Of Iuterest to Farmers, Hampton's Magazine. :J -;, .ir Wbitelai 1, in Johnson f0Unt; Indiana, lives a farmer. His firm consists of 130 ncres, and he "ets up at five o'clock every i i i t : ' v. : morning, ami mis u-jico iu u its over alls. His name isLeonard B. Clore. He is the Corn King of the World. A dozen years ago Mr. Clore be gan to specialize in corn. Today he sets tlie world's pace in this ce real. He bas takea corn prizes all he way from the Johuson county fair, through Indianapolis and Omaha, t0 national competitions J W ith ten ears of White Dent at the Chicago corn sho in 1007 he took the sweepstakes. The Clore family very nearly keeps house with father's corn prizes. In the list is everything from a manure-spreader to a pi ano, including watch, clock, stove, mandolin, lawn swing, an automo bile, a quarter section of land in Texas, and a $1,000 cash prize. Oue of the incidentals is a silver loving cup valued at $l,O00. Mr. Clore is just on the edge of the middle west corn belt. He bas his own theories on raising corn. He deeideda few years ago that instead of spending so much time in improving their land the corn growers should give more thought to improving their breed of corn. All his efforts have been in that j to the belief that Cook acted in Poor Old Cook Gone Wrong. Poor old Cook he for whom we yelled and shed big tears, has departed hence gone where the whangdoodle mourneth for, her de parted offspring; and we are left to hold the sack.; It now turns out that poor old Fredaick did not get to the north pole, or even near it, although it is conceded by some of his enemies that he got as far north a Portland, Maine. We wouldn't have thought that Dr " Fredrick was guilty of such deception, but the following dispatch from Copen hagen made The Record man open hiss eyes: "The report of the special com mittee of scientists which the Uni versity of Copenhagen appointed to scrutinize Dr. Fiederick Cook's claims that he had discovered the North Pole was snbmitted to the consistory of the , university, en dorsed by that body and given to the public. The report shatters completely, almost contemptiously, the great American , explorer's- ti tle to such a disi ovtry. and fills tht: officials and people of Den mark with chagrin at the figure Denmark is made (o assume in the eyes os the scientific world. The public was prepared fora verdict of "not proven,", but did not ex pect its recent hero to be branded as an impostor. Many still cling direction r In a specially built barn he germinates the corn in boxes of earth kept at the right temperature in early spring by gasolina stoves. Thus he knows before planting what percentage of the grains will germinate. Two ears of corn may look alike, but fiood faith, but harbored a delu sion." Explorers and scientists al most unanimously, have lost faith in Cook's honesty, while one of his warmest supporters, Knurl" Has musscii," the explorer, ' helped to frame the report. The evening pa pers attack Cook and severely re the vitality cT-qpq . nH-H .nii?M?'&ehJhlTrj for.' hidi g.;.-.J?hie& thv higher than that of the other. Mr. Cloie is also a judge of what it takes to make a perfect ear j select ing the best ears each fall and 1 planting the hardiest grains in the spring, he has in a great way eli minated chance in corn growing, .ftn frtpnf a indfrp nf rorn is he that rv t, - j " e this December he is to superintend the judging and aw'aTritng of $60, 000 in premiums at different corn shows. He usually averages 100 bushels of corn per acre. The av erage this j ear is 90 bushels. This is about tweufcy bushels moie than before he began his experiments, but in addition the quality of his corn has greatly improved. What he has done for Indiana, -Where u is methods are followed, may be seen by the fact that tue average yield for the past ten years is thirty-five bushels, while over the corn belt of the United States for the same period it is only twenty-five. It is through scientific breeding that this has been brougnt about the selecting of only tested ears. Through his example and by bin talks at fairs and corn institutes the standard of corn in his stateis much higher, and Mr. CI ore in his quiet way is teaching a "national lesson in the science of corn grow ing. Experiment stations all over t.h United States are sending to him for his Jjigh bred seed corn, and are using his methods of breed d Tdahtinor. Leonard Clore o f -cs- wos born in the county in which lie now lives forty -two years ago, on a faim not three miles from where he now resides. 1 he czar haa offprpd him a position in the Russian department of agriculture, bat he ha always been a Hosier, and always expects to be. Xo raon has ever been able to convince his mother in law that he knows it all. - - : Bat the modest philanthropist lets the recording angel act fl-s his press agent. The busiest and mightiest little . thiag that ever was made is Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets. They do the work whenever you require their aid. These tablets ' change - weakness" into strength, listlessness into energy, gloom ines into joyousness. Their action is so gentle one don't realize they have 'taken 3 purgative. Sold by a C.

W e are just mean euough to say that we don't believe Pearry got any nearer to that pole thau Cook 'Tis a piiy that others did not get busy and make a good thing out of th-it graft. It is said that Cook ' skiddooieti" with afj.east a hund red thousand pluuks.- v . . The Sabbath Day Abused. ; ! Then seeing to - be growing a strouger sentiment'- against break ing the Sabbath, "and while we don't aim to preach, we call at tention to the f ;tet that observance of Sunday is a matter of vast im portance to any people, because trouble always to I lows that town, county, state or nation that does not give heed to the Lord' day. Therelsn't much Sunday in the United States, and we have heard it said that west of the Mississippi there isn't any at all. It is also claimed that there is more respect for the day in the South than in any other section of the ; union. However these things may be, Sun day is Suuday and it ough t to be observed . Kot by blue laws that rile folks-and do little good and- per baps m u 'h barm , but by proper action on the part of the people. A land without Sunday doe not appeal to us as a desir able place to live in. If people do riot care for the sever th day and turn it into a day of frolic, they do BOt'care for anything else that , is worth while. The movement ; of which we see evidences here, and there having for it object a more profound' respeei for - the Sabbath has-our most, cordial support Exchange, - The Doctors And Their Dues. The Baltimore Sun says: Few communities ever realize how much thej owe the doctors and few peo ple who do realize how much they owe, ever pay up. If every doc tor could collect his full fee for all the work he does each could have his own automobile and town and country houses. But the doctor goes along his way and uncom plainingly bears the sorrows, bur dens and distress of a large part of tht population. He knows that he is a very present help "in time of trouble; "he knows that he is performing a very real and practi cal service to humanity, arid that is one ol thereatest rewards of a profession that receives more hon or and appreciation than it does material compansation. , Most of the doctors in this part of the woods owu their own pala tial homes and travel almost ex clusiveiy iu their own automobiles. They perform a great service to humanity, but the majority of 'em gel luigbty good pay .tor it. Ed. A Unique Check.
