C, THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 3, J 905. THE SUN HAS DOUBLE THE CIRCULATION OF ANY WEEKLY NEWSPAPER IN THE TENTN COGRESSION AL DISTRICT. 1 THE FARS INSTITUTE. Held In The Court House Friday With A Good Attendance. Friday morning bright and early the farmers of the county began to gather into town, and by 9 o'clock, quite a large and representative body of these sturdy yeomen were gathered in groups round and about the court house. By previous posters and otherwise it had been uorated over the county that State Horticulturist. II. H. Hume; Prof. C. M. Conner, of Florida; G. A, Roberts, Assistant State Vetiuariau, and Institute Director, Dr. Tait Butler, would meet with the farmers of Rutherford to dis cuss such topics relating to the farm and the farmer's interest, as would or might be suggested. At 10 o'clock the meeting opened in the court house with a very good size crowd attending, and alter a few pre liminary remarks, Mr. H. H. Hume spoke upon "Soil Improvement." His remarks were practical and to the point, and if our farmers would only adopt the methods and practice the principles laid down by Mr. IJume, it would only be a question of time when these commercial fertilizer companies would have to make assignments and our farmers could buy in their plants. The stress of Mr. Hume's argument was to buy only the chemicals which are used in the com mercial fertilizers and furnish the '"body" ourselves. This is a very good idea, as it is possible for our farmers to furnish the "body" for their fertilizer much cheaper on their own farms than they can buy it in the markets and pay the freight on it to their railroad sta tion. The farmers are just now begin ning to wake up and realize that they hold the key to the door of success, and no man, no matter what his position, profession. or creed, can enter without their consent, if they only will exercise their power. The farmers run the entire machinery of the world's industries and they could lock every wheel of progress if they were inclined to do so. Their power is indeed unlimited, but they have never yet fully realized the fact. It has only been a few months ago that they decided to make our manu factories pay more for cotton than they were paying, and they have by their combining together, raised the price of cotton from 5.6.50 to $10.75, which means an average of about $20.00 per bale more money for the farmer, and at least 10 per cent, deducted from the manufac turers promts. These county farmers' institutes are educating the farmers, not only in the methods of improving the soil, but in the methods of manipulating the prices of the farmer's products. Messrs. Conner, of Florida, and Rob erts, of North Carolina, both made in teresting talks, besides other of our own countrymen. These institutes are of great benefit to the farming class and we glad to see so many of our farmers tak ing an active part and interest in them. Whatever adds to the farmer's interest, the farmer's success and prosperity, cer tainly adds to the general prosperity of tne country auu we snuum encourage t hese institutes and give them wide scope and notice. It was indeed a feast of good things for our farmers, at least for those who were present and took a part in the meeting Friday morning and evening. Much good is calculated to be derived from the meeting and it is now a cer tain fact that they will be kept up in the future and their influence will be felt in every locality. A CHANGE IN BUSINESS.

Prof. And Mrs. Allhands Leave For Their Northern Home. Prof, and Mrs. J. M. Allhuuds, of Hen rietta, left Tuesday of last week on the Southern for Wingate, Iud., where Prof. Allhauds has accepted a position in the graded schools of that place, having been chosen to fill the position of teacher of the seventh, the eighth, and the ninth grades. His place in the school carries with it a salary of $60.00 per month for ten months in the year. Wingate is a progressive town in Montgomery county some sixty miles northwest of Indian apolis, the capitol of the State, and, like all the towns of that aggressive Com monwealth, is noted for the thoroughness and the proficiency of its public and its private schools. Prof. Allhauds has taught successfully at several places in this and adjoining counties for more than half a score of years, spending the last four or five years at Henrietta. In addition to his school here he has acted as special cor respondent to The Sun, The Charlotte News, The Charlotte Observer and oth er papers. Those who have been read ing his weekly news letters in The Sun, as well as those for whom he has re cently taught at Henrietta, will feel a distinct loss in his going away, but those for whom he shall labor will find in him an excellent instructor. As a teacher in the public schools in this county, he has been a success, and will, doubtless, car ry many of his plans into his new field of labor. He usually carries combs, wa ter, basins, towels and perfumed soap into his schools, and requires cleanliness with study in his daily program. When questioned by a representative of The Sun, as he was going away, he said it was his purpose to return to this county at the close of his school term next May. When asked why he was leaving he replied that he had received a unanimous call from the board of trus tees; that the work would be com paratively light ; that the term would be longer than here ; and last, but not least, his salary would be about double the amount he could hope to receive in this county. The Sun wishes a prosper ous year to Prof. Allhands, and indulges the hope that he will favor our many readers with an occasional letter from his new hame. ANOTHER NEW ENTERPRISE. Mr. R. E.

Haynes, in his extensive business enter prises for many years. , Mr. Haynes w'ill manufacture all kinds of soua water, ginger ale, noka nola, etc., under the name of "Piedmont Bottling Works." There are thousands of bottles of soda water and ginger ale drank in the town and surrounding conn try stores daily and it certainly will be a splendid opening for this new enter prise. Mr. Haynes is one of those thorough going young men who never knows a failure, and it is an assured fact that he will make a success of his pres ent undertaking. The field is open be fore him, as there is no other like enter prise in the county, or nearer than Shel by and Marion. The Sun welcomes Mr. Haynes and his family in our midst and congratu lates the town upon its valuable acquisi tion of such substantial and cultured citizens.

The power that gives you life and motion is the nerve force, or nerve fluid, located in the nerve cells of the . brain, and sent out through the nerves to the various organs. If you are tired, nervous, irritable, cannot sleep; have headache, feel stuffy, dull and melancholy, or have neuralgia, rheumatism, backache, peri odical pains, indigestion, dys . pepsia, stomach trouble, or the kidneys and liver are. inactive, your life-current is weak. Power-producing fuel is need-, ed ; something to increase nerve energy strengthen the nerves. Dr. Miles' Restorative Ner vine is the fuel you need. It feeds the nerves, produces nerve force, and restores vitality. "When I began taking: Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and Anti-Pain Piils I was confined tQ my bed. I had severe nervous spells, the result of two years illness with malaria. Z gradually grew so weak that I was unable to sit up. The spells would commence with cold chills, and I would become weak and almost help less. My circulation was poor. I : had doctored right ; along " but grew weaker and weaker.
