He was a giant in size, clothed in the coarsest rats, and his face was as uelv and rennlsive as that of a gorilla.

There was no one to plead fori him. Twenty miles away he bad assaulted a woman. In the South that crime does not mean a com plaint a warrant an arrest a trial in open court.

The next issue of thsb-Bulletin of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture will contain the follow ing: s "For the protection and guidance of the farmers of North Carolina who purchase commercial fertilizers or fertilizing material, they are ad vised not to buy any fertilizers or fer tilizing material unless the same has the Department of Agriculture's tag attached to each sack, and the man ufacturer's guaranteed claim or analysis stamped upon the bag, and which claim to be without any varia tion of the several ingredients con- : i .1 mi . uuueu tuerein. ah iarmers are re quested to inform the Commissioner of Agriculture at Raleigh of any c3e where a fertilizer or fertilizing mate rial is sold, or offered for sale, with out the above legal requirements.

The farmers of Spartanburg coun ty evidently have little confidence in the sub-Treasury plan of doing business. A proposition was sub mitted to the Spartanburg Count Alliance at its meeting on Monday by Mr. J. H. Sloan, of Charlotte, N CL, to advance about 80 per cent., on the value ol cotton, and store and insure it until August next, if the farmers so desired. The Alliance declined the offer on the ground that the cotton crop is short and that a large part of it has already been marketed. In other words, the farmers beleive that they can man age their own business as well as an agent could manage it, and that the price of the sta pie is regulated by the law of supply and demand. A large crop means lower prices; a small crop means higher prices. Take Simmons Liver Regulator in youth and you will enjoy a green old age. I There' Something in .These Names.
