Rapid progress has been made with rock crusher this week, under the super vision of commissioner Boss Gooch. The crusher has run steadily, and we see the signs of the large amount of work accomnlished on our streets. With pave streets and more railroad facilities Ox ford will indeed be a winner with iron rails extending in four directions. Tobacco rolled in from every direc tion on Tuesday and our 6 warehouses were filled to overflowing and only sold at 5 houses, leaving the Minor over until Wednesday morning. We have had fine breaks all the week aid prices hold up well. Hurrah for our market and our farmers too, as they are standing by their home market which cannot be beat. Mr. R. I.

Thej' are now having a regular Snow storm in Georgia. The renerable Capt.

Deverish, the able secretary of the Modern Tobacco Barn Company is with "the old man" in hi3 tour of Georgia at the request of the farmers. During the severe wind storm of Monday a small potion of the tin roof of the Alliance Warehouse was blowned loose. It was soon repaired, and Graham Hunt is now extremely happy over the good prices obtained for all grades of tobacco sold on the floor.

Drucsist. Oxford. Undertaking'. With many thanks for the universal expression of sympathy and regret at the death of the late John M. Barnes, it has been arranged to continue the business under old firm named of J. M. Barnes & Son. Mr. Geo. A, Barne3, the junior partner will be manager and will be assis ted by a competent corps.

Coffins shipped by rail on short notice, and burials superintented anywhere In this section at reasonable prices. Respectfully, J. M. Barnbs & Son., Henderson, H.C OUR TORACUO M iRKET. Oxford Stands at tti Head ot the Pro cession on big; Prices. We are proud of our six large brick warehouses which are managed by as clever gentlemen as can be found in the State, and are using every means to make the farmers tobacco bring the cream of the market. They are backed up by- a liberal set of buyers, who have the money ready to pay for every pound that may be rolled in town, as they hold orders for large quantities that must be filled. We are not in the habit of telling our farmers that prices have advanced when they have not, but we can tell them that they have advanced and it will pay them to bring their tobacco right along, and unload the buyers of their silver whels. Last Fri day was indeed a lively day and many a farmer went home delighted with the Oxfnrd market. Our town has the re putation of being a hustler but she is a "regular hummer" now. All warehouses have had good breaks during the week and we never saw a happier lot of men than have been our warehousemen, buyers, autioneers and sellers. The sales have been lively and spirited as the order men are clamorous for all grades and they make each other crawl up to the "top notch" on every pile. Farmers we are satisfied that no market can pay more for tobacco than Oxford so load up and come along and "the boys" will see that you get every cent possible for every grade. Do not be lead off, by beautiful, smooth tongues, flowing with fancy figures, about what can be done on such, and such a market, but stand by and patronize your county town that can really boast of being the best all round tobacco market to be found anywhere. When you help to build up your own county market you are help ing to increase your own prosperty and it behooves us all to unite and pull togeth er. We have all gotten to much in the habit of wandering away and dropping dollars in the slot of others towns, to the great detriment of our own town. Death of Mr. S. C. Holmes. We mentioned in our last issue the serious illness of this highly esteemed young man, bat in this we are called upon to announce his death which took place Thursday morning at 5 o'clock, surround ed by his brother Charles, his friend A. B. Cook and a number of others who have carefully watched over him during his illness. He was a son of Mr. W. S. Holmes, of Franklin county, and was 30 years of age. He fell a victim of Brights disease of the kidneys and suffered in tensely for 4 wreeks. Mr. R. H. McGuire, with whom he lived, as well as all those who were ac quainted with him, speak in the highest terms of his christian character and kind ness of heart. He was a member of the Methodist church, and died in full com munion with his Maker and is no doubt now resting sweetly in the bosom of his Redeemer. The remains were taken to Franklin for Interment. Itch on human and horses and all ani mals cured in 30 minutes by Woolford's Sanitary Lotion. This never fails. Sold by J. G. Hall Druggist, Oxford, N. C. Let us Have Good Roads. The worst obstacle to the making of good country roads is the lack of practi cal knowledge as to how they can be made, not any lack of the money they will cost. A great deal of money raised by taxation and spent every year for the improvement of country roads, the most of which is simply wasted. The roads are repaired at the worst season of the year with the worst material clay out of the ditch at the roadside, and this farce is repeated year after year, with results that need not be mentioned. The money that would make one mile of good road is spread over ten miles to make the ten miles a highway of pulverized dust a pan of the year and a continuous quagmire the rest of the time. In Jefferson county, Ala., there is an in teresting experiment in building macad amized roads. Thus far it has construct ed 110 miles and has 37 miles under con tract. In all 150 miles will be built. This is a wise and ecopomical movement whatever may be the cost of the roads. The Manufacturers' Record truly says: "Every mile of good roads constructed would enhance the value of all adjacent farm property, increase the profits of farmers, attract the best class of settlers and help to increase the prosperity of the whole State." We want to see our farmers take more interest in public roads and do away with the old methods as they have always proved a failure. Granville county is noted for her bad roads, and we want to see this thing reversed, if possible. It can be done if one or more townships in the county will buy a rock crusher and macadamize a few miles a year and in the course of a few vears nearly every principal road in the county would be solid and last for aenerations to come with slight repairs.

Oevenish Tour Tbrongh the State at the Solicitation of the Farmers. Macon Ga , November 23-d 1 he Modern Tobacco Barn people of Oxford have invaded Georgia and the topic of discussion all over the State now is the growing of tobacco, Capt. Snow and Capt. Deverish, of the Modern Tobacco Barn Company are mak Ing a tour of the State by invitation of nearly two hundred planters, meeting crowds at various points and talking about the Modern Barn and the culture of to bacco. The tour, will last one month and fifteen or twenty points in the State, covering nearly every probable tobacco section will be visited. The party have just been out one week to-day. I have been assign ed by the Atlanta Jourcal to accompany them and look upon the scene and al ready my eyes have been opened. It is no longer a question about Georgia grow ing tobacco. The farmers are aroused and determined to go into the business and unless all the signs of the times fail, all Georgia will amaze the world in the next two or three years. It will be as much a tobacco State as is either North Carolina or Virginia. I hardly ever saw people so enthusias tic or more united on anything than are the Georgia farmers on tobacco. They say : "We all use it we buy more to bacco than any State in the union we have built immense cities in North Car olina, Virginia and others States by send ing our millions there, while we have the climate, the soil and can grow as fine tobacco as the world ever saw and now by the Heavens we propose to pull off our coats, roll up our sleeves and grow tobacco, establish our markets and build our factories ! The farmers have studied the advanta ges afforded by the Modern Tobacco Barn and the Snow process of raising and cur ing tobacco and they say that with this method their success is assured and all hither to unsurmountable obstacles are easily overcome. Everywhere Captains Snow and Dever- ' ish are warmly ancl enthusiastically greet ronoooantotlira r.lonfAt eager to learn process and the more about the Snow Modern Barn. Tobacco Associations for mutual benefit are being organized among the farmers - in many sections and in one town a half dozen business men pledged themselves to es tablish warehouses and build factories just as soon as the farmers get under good headway growing the weed. At other places business men proposes to build Modern Barns in tobacco sections and furnished experienced cures so that farmers of small means can pitch in and grow tobacco without any outlay whatever. The movement is not lead by shallow brain enthusiastics, but everywhere the leading planters and business people generally are interested and heading the procession. Officials of the Georgia Southern and Florida railroad have just held a conference with Captains Snow and Deverish and say they will plant several acres of tobacco on their extensive farm near Tifton neTt year and build Modern Barns there. They are very much interested,believed the movement to be of much importance to the farmers of Geor gia. Captains Snow and Deverish are highly gratified at their royal reception, and will return to North Carolina, when the trip is finished in high feather. C. F. King. Death of a Prominent Farmer. Mr- W. T.Stem, aged about 65 years died at his home at Stem on Monday morning last after a lingering illness of several weeks. He ranked as one of the best farmers in Tally Ho township and by hard work and economical manage ment had accummulated quite a hand some property . He was the father of Mr. W- J. Stem, of the warehouse firm of Beasley, Stem & Co., of Oxford, Mr. II. A. Stem and Mrs. Frank Bullock and Mrs. J. G. Bullock, of Stem. For a num ber of years Mr. Stem was a leading member of Moore's Methodist Church. When the Oxford & Clarksville Rail road was built and the village of Stem came into existence which bears his name, he at once went to work and with the aid of others succeeded in establishing a prosperous church at that place. He was honorable and upright in all his dealings, and in his death Tally Ho township loses a good citiz-n. To his wife, children, and relatives we extend our sympathies in the hour ot gloom and sorrow. Radly Injured. Mr. Robert Fleming, one of the good men or uuicuvuie lownsuip and a mer chant at Creedmoor, happened to a seri ous accident on Tuesday. He is having a house erected, and was assisting in fram ing it, and while putting up the rafters he slipped and fell below across one of the sleepers, breaking one of his arms in two places and several of his ribs.

Do !not the people think it would be advisable before signing petition and other papers to await the developments and see what it will cost to build the first section of 3 miles of the Oxford and Coast Line Railroad f We understand the Construction Committee are now cor responding with parties with a view ot getting the work done at the lowest mini mum cost. We do not care who builds the roads so they account honestly to the people of Oxtord for the money expended. We are heartily in favor of the road and trust it will be built as earily as possible, believ ing it will be the means of increasing the trade of Oxford in every respect. And if we have to judge, from our experience last winter it certainly will. We heard some of our experienced business men say that Oxford lost the past winter between $50, 000 and $75,000 by not having connection with the Durham & Northern Road so that the farme's of a portion of Southern Granville could reach Oxford by rail in stead of being forced to go to Henderson or Durham. We are for the interest of Oxtord and not any particular set of men, and say give us connection with another railroad system and we will not be at the mercy of one corporation who forced the citizens of Oxford to ride three miles through the country in order to make connection with the Seaboard system when the town has $100,090 invested in said corporation. The effort to throw difficulties in the way of the Construction Committee looks like trying to make cheap capital out of nothing. No one who is unprejudiced thinks for a moment that Dr. Herndon and Mr. Graham will permit $40,000 to be expended on the line from Oxford to the Durham & Northern Railroad. The chief objectors must know this to be true and it looks as if though they were sim ply getting ready when this enterprise is honestly carried out to get up and pro claim "We did it." "We kept them from spending the whole of the $40,000 " "We are the watch dogs of the Treasury." We feel confident nothing will be gained by trying to prevent what is not going to be done. "Aren't you ever going to grow old, like the rest of us?" asked a man of an acquaintance he hadn't seen for some time. "Well, not so long as I can purify my blood with Ayer's Sarsaparilla," was the apt reply. This man knew what he was talking about.
