. ATTENTION, RALEIGH!
We would call your attention to
the fact that the farmers of the
state have met in convention, discuss
ed ways and means for building up
our great state ,and have gone to
their homes, as quietly as they came,
to put the things they have learned
Into practice. Officially, Raleigh
didn't know these good people were
here. Other towns extend hearty
greetings to such visitors. Their
mayors make speeches of welcome.
Chambers of Commerce do all iu
their power to exploit their respective
cities and give the "stranger within
the gates" a pleasant time. Such
things please the visitor, give him a
liking for the city and make Him
want to come back again.
What did Raleigh do? Absolutely
nothing. There was no official re
cognition of the convention. If we
have a mayor, a Chamber of Com
merce, or- the -slightest appreciation
of the honor these good people have
done us In choosing our city as a
meeting place, they don't know it.
We mention these facts because
we love this good city and feel that
she needs' conventions of this sort.
The only way to get them is to ap
preciate them and make theiv coin
ing here worth while.
THE FARMERS' STATE CONVTEN
' TION.
We have seen ; bigger conventions
and conventions with more fuss and
feathers, red fire and noisy accom
paniments, but we have never seen
a more earnest and devoted band of
men and women than those faithful
ones who'defied the fury of the ele
ments and gathered in Raleigh last
..Tuesday. .
The program as arranged was car
ried out in its entirety and was full
of Interest from first to last. The
speakers seemed as full of enthus
iasm and spoke as earnestly and elo
quently as if thousands faced them.
Certainly there was no lack of in
terest in the audience. Every speech
was brimful of interest full of good
things, novel and progress-inspiring,
and not a word of it escaped these
searchers for knowledge. Question
after question would the listeners
put to those who addressed them,
and no subject was allowed to sink
into the background until every
phase of It had been thoroughly gone
over. '. V" '
And the good women God . bless
them! 'They were there, too. Mrs.
Hntt, the efficient chairman of the
woman's department of Farmers' In
stitute work,-' was ever- ready "with
helpful suggestion and sound advice.
Mrs. Hollowell, president of the Wo
mans' Betterment Association, Mrs.
Stevens, Mrs. Boylan, Miss Royster,
and others well known to the good
women of the state, made strong ap
peals for the Improvement of farm
life. What good these women have
.accomplished, the future alone can
tell. We da know that their earnest
efforts must In the end bring forth
good results. 'We fully realize the
fact that the way to revolutionize
the farm, from cleanly housekeeping
to Intelligent tilling of the soil, to
convert the womanhood of the state
to modern methods and principles.
Some one has said that if you con
vert man you have converted .n
Individual. If you convert a woman
you have' converted a generation.
'All 1 alt,' the convention was en
tire success. - Thousands were kept
'way because of the floods, and the
convention's influence was thereby
crippled but those who were pres
ent were zreattr benefitted. .

For Governor: $
W. W. KITCHIN.
A special sent out from TarborO
'reads very much like one sent out a
few days ago from New England. It
says the Wah-Ree hosiery mills are
working night and day to fill orders
and are manufacturing about 450
dozen pairs of hose a day. This
shows two gratifying things: one
that the increasing demand for the
mills', output indicates that prosper
ity is returning, and the other, that
people are not only cultivating the
habit of wearing these articles of
apparel but that they are beginning
to like them so well as to create a
demand for them.
The suggestion from Taxpayer in
an article found elsewhere that no
guilty dog be allowed to escape is
an excellent one. We commend it to
those in authority.
To the Charlotte Observer: If
you will pardon us for trespassing
on another's preserves, we would
like to ask, Have you put 'em on
yet? . . "
V DOG GOXn IT.
To the Editor of The Times:
I hope you are satisfied now. I
will have to pay tax on my dog.
You kept agitating. I thought the
thing had about died out, and that
my small dog had been overlooked,
but not so. I thought he was a smart,
dog, for last year when they came
around1 taking the census of dogs he
suddenly left the city, of his own ac
cord, and did not get back in time to
pay the tax. He showed poor judg
ment, however, yesterday, for he fol
lowed me down streete. I think
Billy Willson must have seen him
with me, for I got a notice from him
this morning to call in 10 days and
pay Jl-00 for him. It is a good thing
he gave me some time, or I might not
be able to raise the coin.
Misery loves company ! Since my
dog has been spotted (he . Is' not,
though),-and has to pay the tax, I
don't care If every dog-gone dog in
town has to pay the tax.
This may give our city fathers
funds enough to keep our streets
sprinkled, as the only ta we get
out of the water company is water
for sprinkling purposes. So keep up
your agitation. ; Let no dog escape.
Special privileges to none.

Excellent Health Advice.
Mrs. M. M. Davidson, of No. 379 Glf
ford Ave., San Jose, Cal., says: "The
worth of Electric Bitters as a general
family remedy, for headache, bilious
ness and torpor of the liver and bowels
is so pronounced that I am prompted
to say a word In Its favor, for the ben
efit of those seeking relief from such af
flictions. There is more health' for' the
digestive organs in a bottle of Electric
Bitters than in any other remedy I
know of." Sold under guarantee at all
