Mil. BRYAN OUT
Mr. Bryan's resignation was sud
den, but not altogether unexpected
He has long been restless in the
shadow of the great president.There
was a chance for Mr. Bryan to step
down and out and he did it. He
is less of a statesman and more of
politician than at first appeared
Mr. Bryan has never been beyond
the lure of the platform and its
mint of gold.
It must have been a shock to Mr
Bryan to find the president the big
ger man, and unendurable to have
him step so clearly in the lead when
the nation needed a strong man
His peace-at-army-price policy met
with small response from the public
Clearly there was nothing to do but
to resign.
Mr. Bryan, always dramatic, saw
the tremendous . dramatic Chautau
qua possibilities of a resignation
tendered at this time and for the
reason he was able to advance. JVIr
Bryan is a rich man and he knows
that his spectular resignation is
equivolent to a fortune, as you count
gold, but it marks his retirement as
a dominating influence in national
politics.
The French are now using a bomb
which contains laughing-gas. Just
tickling the enemy to death, so to
speak.
A great many people don't even
know that huckleberry shortcake
and cream fully makes up for the
one-quart law.
Politics has gotten into the schools
of Atlanta. It is a pity, because the
school children will learn something
about the rottenness of politics.
The men of North Carolina never
got right down in earnest at the
problem of raising corn in North
Carolina until the boys showed them
how, and it may be the same pro

proper care of the roads. Grens-

Education quickens the wits of
people. Religion sobers the thoughts
of people. Enlightenment enables us
to see our opportunities. While the
Europeans are busy destroying one
another, the Japanese saw that it
gave them the opportunity to take
charge of the "open door" in China.
The Japanese show every sign of
having enough education to enable
their country to see her opportunity
in China and to know when it was
a good time to seize it.
The municipal authorities of Shel

ASTOUNDING FIGURES
It is charged, as shown by the -annual
published statements of the in
surance companies, that North Car
olina pays out yearly something like
$10,500,000 and receives back
something like 13,500,000; that she
pays out, $3.00 for every $1.00 re
ceived, a rate on each dollar of 200
per cent.
The exact figures for the . year
ending December 31, 1909 (report
of 1910, the latest we happen to
have before us), are $10,199,904.57
paid out and $3,676,076.43 paid
back. Using this as an average for
the past 15 years (dating from
about the time when we first began
OUR NEWS LETTER EIUKI STEII
')
A MAD RULER
In the current number of the
North American Review there oc-
curs an excellent analysis of Em
peror Wililam's mental condition.
M any articles have been written on
the Kaiser's peculiarities of charac-
' ter, but few summaries of the sub
ject can compare with the present
article, which is from the pen of a
physician.
The writer is not unduly prejud
iced in his estimate of the evidence;
he speaks moderately. And what
peror is the victim of a mild case of
insanity. He finds his proof in the
Kaiser's excessive vanity, megalo
mania, religious exaltation and eter
nal restlessness. As an instance of
his incredible vanity and belief in
his own powers, the writer mentions
"Emperor and presented by him to
one of the most celebrated of Ger
man painters as an exhibition
piece. Besides the array of evi
dence regarding the Kaiser himself,
an account is given of the Hohen
zollern family history, which shows
many marked aberrations.
Many people have believed that
the head of the German nation is
mad, and that he began the war in a
spell of insanity. The subsequent
course of the German government
confirms this theory in a most strik
ing manner. Above all other things
the sinking of the Lusitania sug
gests madness pure and simple.
If it be true that the Emperor is
insane, the fact illustrates the in
curable weakness of the monarchi
cal form of government. The Presi
dent of a republic may be mediocre,
but he is nearly always sound-minded.
The King of a liberal monarchy
is restrained by the Constitution.
But a government like Germany's is
at the mercy of the head, and if he
happens to be a lunatic, the welfare
of the whole world is threatened.
What Germany needs is a commis
sion of lunacy on the Kaiser.
to call attention to this "drain
the sum paid out amounts to $157,
500,000 and the sum received to
$52,500,000. Add to this the excess
(and interest) above receipts since
1865, and the sum is simply as
tounding, amounting by fair estima
tion to well over a quarter of a bit
lion dollars.
Let us suppose, in a visionary
way, that this sum had been left in
our local banks.and that it had been
used for home development; the
possible result is almost beyond
economic computation. The State
every county, city, town, and town
ship, would possibly be, financially,
ten years ahead of what we are to
day. As it is, with out lands only
50 per cent developed, life has been
almost a burden from having to
hear the constant wail of lack of
money, in government, religion
education and everything else that
tends to make life worth living. We
are slow; we are behind in many
matters; we still follow the line of
least resistance and "pile on the
miller," taxing, when we need any
thing, and for everything, the poor
old landowner. We continue to play
the part of the Nethinim and serve
the Hartford temple.
We do not say that this ldrain'
can be stopped; we do say, however,
that it can be, from the standpoint
of State economy, better handled
It is charged that other States
struggling with this proposition
have secured, and are now enjoying
certain remedial and reform laws
that are not enjoyed by the citizens
fo our State. If this be true, is it
not time for a showing to be made
before the people, by those who
would govern us, and for judgment
to be had, as between those propos
ing and standing tor tnese retorms
and those standing against them?

Lime Facts For Land Owners.
(1) Do not use "burned" lime for
agricultural purposes it is caustic
and will destroy the vegetable mat
ter of your soils by "eating away its
substance through chemical action.
It thus reduces the organic matter
content 'of your soils; liberates and
dissipates ' your soil nitrogen into
the air; and thus leaves your land in
a relatively impoverished condition.
(2) Use only ground limestone or
marl on your soils.- This form of
lime helps to enrich your land and
does not burn out your sou humus
There is, moreover, no danger from
an over application of lime in this
form.
(3) Do not rely on ground lime
stone or marl, alone, to keep up the
fertility of your land. The best re
sults are obtained only when these
materials . are used -in connection
with liberal amounts, of organtic
matter. ; Remember the proverb
Lime' and , lime without (green)'
manure mattes ootn son ana iatner
poor and Lime comDinea wun
vegetable matter makes both farm
and farmer better."
(4) Lime is said to liberate in
ert soil potach and render it avail
able for the growing crop. All
piedmont North Carolina soils have
an abundance of inert soil potash.
( 5 ) Lime . corrects soil acidity,
accelerates ' the rotting of green
manuring crops and otner torms or
organic matter in the soil; and ser
ves as a food for all kinds of plants,
especially those of legume family.
such as the clovers, vetches, alfalfa,
peas, and beans.
(6) Make liberal use of lime on
land intended for peanuts, alfalfa,
and the clovers.
(7) Spread lime over your mead
ows and pastures.
(8) Spread lime over your green
manuring crops before turning them
under to hasten their decay early in
the season.
(9) Spread lime at any conveni
ent time but preferably during the
fall, winter and spring months.
(10) Use from one to ten tons of
ground limestone to the acre, de
pending on the object for which you
use it. For the correction of soil
acidity on the far eastern "black
lands" make the larger acre appli
cations. - -
(11) Sinice lime dissolves in the
soil very readily, it is generally bet
ter to make small applications at
short intervals than large applica
tions at long intervals; i. e., it is
generally better to apply 50 Q lbs. to
the acre every year than to supply
2,000 lbs. to the acre every four
years.
(12) Lime cannot take the place
of thorough drainage in the correc
tion of soil acidity-drain first, then
lime.
(13) Ground limestone and marl
should be used in grades of differ
ent degrees of fineness. . The finest
materials become immediately avail
able and are either used up by the
plants or leached out of the soil; the
coarser materials become more
slowly available and thus last over
a longer period. The very finely
ground limestone, say that which j
will pass a one to two hundred mesh
sieve, costs more money at the quar
ry and does not last so long in the
soil as that which is ground less
fine.
(14) The State Department of
Agriculture will furnish ground
limestone and high grade marl to
the farmers of North Carolina at
the lowest possible cost. The ma
terials will be furnished in car-load
lots only and the ton price will de
pend on the location of the shipping
point of the farmer.
(15) A car-load of ground lime
stone or marl will run from fifteen
to thirty tons.
(16) Individuals who do not want
as much as a car-load can club to
gether and order a car-load shipped
to one point.
(17) Try to place your orders for
ground limestone or marl at least
six weeks before you want the ma
terial shipped.
(18) Cash must accompany all or
ders to the Commissioner of Agri
culture for ground limestone or
marl. The ton price "laid down at
your station" will be given on appli
cation to the Commissioner of Agri
culture as soon as it can be worked
out. JAS. L. BURGESS,
