noting: the splendid prices being paid on the Kinston mar

ceipts from the sales ran $100, or close to that, more
than he had expected to get, and he proceeded to spend
th.it und a little more with the merchant for articles nec
essary on his farm.
Such acquaintances are worth making, and this in
stance but illustrates the point that ws have been endeav
oring to drive home in our advocacy of a big co-operative
effort to extend Kinston's trade territory and bring many
tobacco and cotton farmers here this season, who have
not before sold their products and bought their supplies

above, will help. -.' y ..'

If it is true that public sentiment in Denmark is strong
ly adverse to the sale of the Danish West Indies to the
United States, there will be no sale.

From present indications of Hha cotton market, the

the latter is not the only pebble on the beach this season.
In; oilier words, ther is every indication that King Cot

KIXSTON MOVES FORWARD.
The trustees of, tho Kinston graded schools took a
lr.Mt decided step forward Tuesday night when they ar
ranged for medical inspection of all the clJldrwi attend
ing the publm schools in Kinston. The Free Press in
particularly gratified thai thist?tcp has been taken be
cause it is on of , the essentia, extras" to the modern,
well-regulate J and efficient school to whioh - this paper
has taken occasion from time to time to call attcutlon
Medical inspection of school children is not ia the theo
retical otajre. The splendid benefits coming from the
plan, where it has been employed, havo proven beyond
shadow of a doubt that much good can be accomplished.
Physical defects in the incipient stage are detected and
through jthe suggestions made by the inspectors to .tho
parents of the children such defects can be and arc rem
edied before they become chronic and the child, who
wjaid otherwise bo handicapped, is given a better oppor
turity to improve his or her advantages.
The medical inspector is not a practitioner and docs not
render free medical service. Let nobody get that idea.
j The Inspector will examine all the children and make
such recommendations as are found necessary to bo car
riod out by the parent and their family physicians.
Medical incpection is but one of the necessary auxiliar
ies, and the first to be added to the Kinston school y.
tern. Its benefits will no doubt becomo apparent immedi
ately.

TESTIMONY OF AN EXPERT. ' .
Wilmington Dispatch: "According tf Admiral Dewey,
the navy Is neither deficient nor lacking in progress. Fie!
Fio! Mr. Hughes knows better. Admiral Dewey was
only trained in tho navy, and is but the hero of Manila
and an expert naval authority,Vhile Mr. Hughes merely
wants to be President." '
PREPARATION BEFOREHAND.
Inland Farmer: "With t wheat as with many other
crops, the proper treatment of the seed-bed and the sup
plying of plant food to carry along the crop wfth a good
stan and a steady growth, may be considered half the
battle. As wheat is not cultivated after seeding, what-
production. i.Quch, roaos will bs large
ly of the perpetual blossoming sorts.
When a rose is cut from such plants
tea roses or other perpetual bloom
ersonly two or. three yea of the
current season's growth cf that branch
should.be left on the plant. This
should, give the rosos very long
stems. Succeeding blossoms should
be cut close to the ground. It will
seem like dfstroying the bush to take
so much off it, but if the object is
the production of roses, the cutting
away of the ourplus wood will attain
tho desired end .
If the spring pruning has not been
sufficiently severe the plant is likely
to have long, naked stalks and short
stems to the flowers. With this
character of growth only one or two
strong leaf buds should be left on
the branch when the flower is cut,
so as to stimulate as much growth
as possible from ithe base o!f the
plant. ' 1 "lr.TIF
The greatest temptation to leave
wood is where there are two or more
buds on one branch, some being small
when the, terminal one is opan. This
temptation to follow a bad practice
can be avoided by pinching off all
side hoot3 after a bud has formed
on one end of a branch. This pre
vents the formation of two or more
buds on one stalk. This summer
pruning will encourage additional
blooms on varieties which bloom more
than once a year. .
