would equip three hives, t which
would be an adequate start for an
amateur bee-keeper. , ' . '
Special emphasis was laid upon
fareful and tataful honey (ar mar
keting. , Mr. Womble was plied with ques
tions, showing very great interest in
the subject. ' "' ? ' .
Statistics show that North Caro
lina produces twice as much honey
as California, yet owing to poor prep
aration of product . for yaarket the re
sults, fall far below other states.
.-Dr. Butler, director of .farmers'
institutes, was next introduced' and
talked upon the works of the wo
man's institute. Dr. Butler discuss
ed the work fully and with an earn
estness that appealed to all who
heard him. The aim' of the woman's
. institute is to arouse- interest in wo
man's work, to improve the condi
tions upon the farm. Dr. Butler be-
lieves that If the aim is kept In mind
no force of the state will accomplish
gi-eater good. : Women should be vl-
; tally interested in the art of home
market. The logical way to bring
about the improvement Is to begin
with the home, but the practical way
will be to begin with the college and
work from this to the public school.
There has been the most vital inter
ests during the entire session upon
the' question of teaching of domes
tic science and at the close of Dr.
Butler's address there was a free dis
cussion of all phases of the question
of teaching the girls of the state
some of the things . that they hope
to make a life work. It will be the
chief burden of the organization to
so arouse the women of the Btate
to the necessity of adequate courses
In domestic science In the schools,
that this work may be accomplished
promptly. A , resolution introduced
by Mrs. E. E. Moffltt was endorsed by
the association and was referred to
the executive committee The reso
lution reads:
Wheeras, the A. -.ft M. College ofj80und for a few hours and deceive
North Carolina was made possible
through the philanthropy of Stan
hope Pullen; and,
Whereas, the women of North Car
olina have had no opportunity of
showing their appreciation of this
generous gift; be it
Resolved, That ; the woman's
branch of the Farmers' Institute
gin the movement, to erect a memor
ial gate at the entrance of the college
grounds, to be constructed from our
native granite and properly inscribed
to Stanhope Puilen as a gift to the
college from the women of the state.
.Resolutions of thanks to the chair
man and members of the committee
for efficient services in carrying the
meetings to success were endorsed
by the association, after which fol
lowed adjournment. K
. -. . The Convention. , '.
At . 2 o'clock yesterday, afternoon
Mr. Q., L. Vinson discussed In an In
teresting way, plumbing in country
homes. His speech brought on
.general diseusslon of the subject.
Different ways of supplying water
was taken up, as by a gasolene en
gine, hot air engine,' or hydraulic
ram. The latter is the most econom
ical! and very efficient, if one has a
BDrlnc with some fall from it. A
tank can be nlaced in the attic, even
made of barrels or other, accessible
materia!. The water can ba runlDr. Talt Butler, R. L. Shuford and
down to take in the kitchen, or bath
room. Agood kitchen Bink can be
purchased for $2.50 and installed for
$5.00. a good bath tub for $12. A
good system of drainage and ventl-
latlon Is al30 necessary. The water
can be led out to a covered brick state uoara or. Agriculture to se
tank having open Joints so as to cure an appropriation for the organ
drain out all the water in the sur- ization and another committee was
rounding soil. One gentleman cited
a case where he saw water install
ed in the farm home with a. tank
placed at a good elevation, the wa
ter being forced up by a hydraulic
ram. The water in the house had
sufficient pressure to run a washing
machine, a churn, a sewing machine,
a fan and a cradle. The waste wa
iter went into a water jacket about a
refrigerator cooled from ' the same
source. , i nis caused a smue oi mer-j
riment, dut. me speaiier cpuea up
another delegate to substantiate his
statement. ,
. prof. J. M. PIckel gave some illus
trations on the value of pure water
and showed how it Is often contami
nated. He pointed out that & driven
well Is the surest of being pure, and
that no bacteria are found deeper
than fifteen feet in the soil.
. Prof. S. I. Smith gave a short talk
on Insects affecting garden crops.
As the audience was a little restless
after the three days of continuous
lectures, he made his remarks brief
and mentioned only a few illustra
tions of his very important subject.'
.He stated that cabbage lice can be
successfully combatted by spraying
with a solution of one pound of soap
to three' or four gallons of water,
and that It Is quite unlikely that any
one will spray enough parts green
on cabbages to injure a person. He
said that a man would need to eat
ten well sprayed cabbages to be even
nauseated. V ......
Dr. 0. A. Roberts veterinarian, of
the A. and M. College, gave a very
thorough demonstration of the ex
amination of a horse for soundness.
He pointed out the many weaknesses
that one has to be on the guard for;
how easy It Is for a man to rivet all
his attention on some pet hobby or
ftnnf . anI thna ftverlnnlf anmnihlnfr
!""' "1
else equally as Important at the eye-'
ap
mi
sight or mind. He cited the case of
a dealer in Raleigh who bought a
horse that fulfilled his ideal in every
particular and sent to Dr. Roberts
for his commendation, when it was
discovered that one eye was totally
blind.- Dealers can also cocaine a
lame horse and make him eo : as
thelr unwarrv tmvers.
It is well to
examine a horse thoroughly before
buying him or else test him out
a few days first.

the convention, on motion went into
the election of officers,
be-,ng were elected:

Last : night the State Dairymens' ,

ed to send a committee before the(
created on marketing the dairy pro
ducts. ' It was the consensus of opin
ion that the association should meet

The greatest trouble of all, the
awful suspense of wives and mothers
and all members of separated fami
lies is over. For days many women
sat huddled together in flood-sur
rounding homes, not knowing
whether husbands uptown were alive
or dead. The men held in the offices
by flood could not know whether
their homes were swept away and
their families drowned." This has
been a day of reunion here and there
are more smiles than tears now that
the trouble Is over.
: No homes were swept away unless
in the lowest portions of the city next
to the river.

A RARE OLD BOOK.
Published in Salisbury in 1812 Pre
sented to the State Library.
Hon J. T. Brittain, of Asheboro,
has presented to the State Library a
rare old book, "Poor Peter's Call to
His Children, and to All Others Who
Can Hear and Bslieve," by Peter
Clemmons, Sr.
The book contains 156 pages, and
was published at Salisbury in 1812.
The author was a Methodist min
ister, farmer, and perhaps a mission
ary, as he left his farm and minis
terial work in Pennsylvania after
freeing his slaves, to come to North
Carolina, where he resumed these oc
cupations and appended to them the
hot denunciation of slavery.
It is in many ways an interesting
old book, consisting principally of
sermons, advice to his sons and
daughters, and the great brotherhood
of man. The closing chapter tells
why he left the "Methodist Society."
Avoid the Rain.
Instead of staying home and fret
ting about the weather, get on your
rubber shoes, take your umbrella,
and come out, In spite of the con
tinued downpour.
It is always bright and sunny in
side the Gaiety, and no matter how
blue you may feel, or how disgusted
you are, there is generally something
projected upon the screen that will
appeal to your good nature, force you
into a sunny frame of mind, and get
you happy. Try it. It

mlt Roosevelt, second son of the pres
ident, stopped a runaway pair of
i horses yesterday afternoon after a
' wild chase on horseback and prob
ably saved the lives of Mrs. Frank
Hilton, of New York, and her two
small sons. .
The feat was a most perilous one,
and as the young man, who is In his
twentieth year, raced along on his
horse beside the galloping runaways,
the dozens of persons who were
watching, held their breaths.
' Mr. Hilton, who had been driving
the team, was thrown out when the
horses took fright at an automobile
and dashed away with reins dragging
in the road. After , Kermtt had
brought the horses to a standstill, he
covered the boy with congratulations
and blessings.
