This morn ing's Wilmington Star had to say of the wedding: "Friends in the city yesterday learned, with much interest and pleas ure of the marriage of Mr. George A. Meacham of Wilmington, and Miss Josephine Alexander, daughter of Mr, and Mrs. W. F. Alexander, which was 6olemni2ed at the home of the bride's parents in Fayetteville Tuesday after noon at 4 O'clock. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Watson M. Fair ley, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Fayetteville. During the ceremony Miss Nina Andrews of this city played softly 'To a Wild Rose,' by McDowell. "The home was beautifully decor ated with autumn flowers. The wed ding was very quiet, only the members Chapel Hill, Oct. 29 Is North Car olina's capacity to retain wealth com mensurate with its wealth-producing power T Does the wealth produced buck to the palms that sweat it out? This engaging topic was discussed by the North Carolina Club at its recent meeting, Fred. R. Yoder of Catawba county, leading the discussion. Fig urse carefully compiled, indicated that North Carolina produced far greater crop wealth per acre in 1913 than Iowa, Illinois or McLean cojnty, Illinois, one of the eight banner agri cultural counties in the United States. North Carolina's per capita wealth was $24 per acre over against $17 in the State of Iowa. This wealth does not stick to the palms that sweat it out the bulk of the yearly farm wealth seems to disappear as fi by evaporation, scattering to the far ends of the earth. The inability of North Carolina cotton farmers, in the many years of fat, to lay up a suffi cient store of wealth to tide them selves over a depressed business p. riod brought on by the limited de mand for cotton, conclusively proves that the State's wealth retaining pow er is not . commensurate with .its wealth producing power. The reason is apparent: Excessive farm tenancy and its associated conditions of the one-crop, supply-merchant farm civ ilization. This prevailing condition slaps in the face any concerted effort for the diversification of crops and the development of live-stock indus tries. The natural consequence is a deficiency of home-raised feeds and food-stuffs. The wealth-retaining power of the State of Kansas--the only State in the Union absolutely free from debt was contrasted with that of North Carolina. Kansas is a self-sufficing, home-ownership, live stock growing State. The single farm wealth of Kansas is two thousand dollars over against three hundred and twenty-two dollars in North Carolina. The dairy products of Kansas are val ued S9.549.129; dairy products of North Carolina, $1,787,245; Kansas poultry, $11,023,882; North Carolina poultry, $3,338,912; Kansas animals, $130,73fi,764; North Carolina ani mals, $7,209,308; Kansas feedable crops, $22,911,128; North Carolina feedable crops, $2,061,783. The two types of farming are illustrated dis tinctly in this State. Scotland coun ty represents the one-crop, farm-tenancy, supply-merchant system; Alle ghany county represents the many crop, livestock, ownership system. The food produced per capita in Alle ghany county is $106; in Scotland the per capita production of food is $42. Alleghany produces a surplus, food for marketable purposes, $170,890; Scotland county has to expend for im ported foodstuffs, $645,246. The North Carolina Club has bul letined for discussion and debate a batch of live topics for the year's program. The subjecst are calculat ed to arouse the students of the Uni versity to a proper appreciation of North Carolina problems and thus further link up the State University with the soil. The topics are: "The Decreasing Meat Supply of North Carolina and the Increasing Cost of Living"; "Local Packing and Refrig. erating Plants"; "Are Farm Lands Bearing an Unreasonable Share of the Tax Burden?" Debate Query "A State-Wide Dog Tax for Schools"; "The Farmer's Share of the Consum er's Dollar"; Debate Query "Resolv cd, That Home and Farm Ownership s Beneficial to the Negro and the Community in Which He Lives"; "New Zealand's Graduated Land Tax." mrrwrvrs? r.iy ax tnj mammy jwnmrwiwiwriflsiiiii i'iimih.

BAKING Absolutely Pure POWER No Alum by Illinois suffragists was the big subject to be decided when the annu al three day convention of the Illi nois Equal Suffrage Association open ed today in the Congress Hotel. Opposition to the re-election of Mrs. Grace Wilbur Trout as presi dent developed several weeks ago and centered about this one idea. Mrs. Trout's opponents declare she has not made the association the powerful force in Illinois politics they expected and accuse her of being "too easy go ing." One of their specific objections to her candidacy for rejection is the fact that she did not press the fight to have women granted the right to vote for county commissioners. r We have mov d into our new place of buslne?! opposite Free Press Office and are better prepaired than ever to supply your wants in PLUMBING.
