The Public Ledger Is deeply Interested In the success of farmers, as they are the bedrock of the country, Their avocation Is the noblest, tbe freest, the most Indepen dent that Is known to man. It Is hard. It requires toll, and at times Is filled with perplexity. Butsolaevery thing else In the rush fQr wealth, and most every other avocation Is bur dened with these troubles to even a greater degree than In Agriculture. The object of a Farmers' Institute Is to bring together the farmers In order that they may discuss the sub jects relating to their business, such as the best methods of using fertili zers on various crops, the prepara tlon and cultivation of soli, etc. Meeting of Flat River Association.

Thursday morning, July 5th, death ended the sufferings of Mrs. Sallle Murchlson, wife of our much esteem ed townsman, Mr. D. C. Murchlson. How we do hate to give up our loved ones, even when we know the won derful transition will be for their eter nal welfare. "They twain shall beot one flesh," explains why this earthly separation seems unbearable. When years have been spent In love and con fidence, when we have seen our hopes realized and rejoiced together, or de stroyed and together have shared each others' sorrows, these things fully indicate our anguish. Faithful In all the relations of life, though dead she speaketh. In Falrvlew Cemetery In the pres ence of a large assemblage the sad rites of burial were conducted by Rev. Mr. Dozler, tier pastor, a profusion of flowers marking her last resting place. Mrs. Murchlson is survived by a husband and six children, two broth ers, Messrs. John and James Parle, of Oxford, and two sisters, Mlsees Addle and Minnie Paris, of Rocky Mount, to all of whom the deepest sympathy Is expressed. La Grange correspondent KInston Free Press.

The Democrats of Granville county have an advantage this year In the precinct primaries not heretofore en Joyed according to the plan of hold ing a regular voting primary as de cided by the County Democratic Ex ecutive at Its meeting in Oxford last Saturday, as will be seen by the an nouncement Chairman B. S. Royster in another part of this paper. We urge upon our people the great Importance of taking advantage of the opportunity to express their dl rect wishes by a direct vote, and turn out In lull force at the primaries on August 18th. Under "this plan the primary Is equivalent to an election, and every Democrat as well as those who in tent to support the ticket has a voice in tbe selection of the county officers and members of the Legislature. If our people do not go to the prima ries and vote for the men of their choice it Is their own fault and they will have no one to blame but them selves. If good and honorable men are se lected as pollholders no fears may be entertained as to the fairness of the vote. Let no one remain at home the day of the primaries and then blame other people if his choice Is not nominated. We say again attend the primary and get your neighbor to go and thus insure a full "Democratic expres sion", which means good officials and a continued well administered county government. Do not forget the time, Saturday, August 18th, and In the language of the late beloved Zeb Vance "Remem ber the horse that pulls the plow should receive the fodder." A Bad Road was the Trouble. There was a girl and she was sweet; she had a fellow she wanted to meet ; she harnessed a mule and drove a way to tbe Sunday school on Sabbath day. Alas! for Maudle, alas ! for the mule, alas ! for the road to the Sun day school, for It was muddy and rough and bad, the worst durn road In the state bedad. Mule swamped down and threw the girl Into tbe mud with a sidelong whirl; her beau with a hickory pole came there and fished her out by her auburn hair, Alas! for the maiden wet to the soul and hurrah for her beau with a hick ory pole. . Does it make you mad to read such odes? You wouldn't have to. If we had good roads. Bowel Complaint in Children.

Farmers were never pressed harder with work In their lives than In the first week in July. For nearly two weeks the land had been too wet to work! The grass was growing all tbe time and had to be conqured or the crops would be ruined. A month before hand a meeting had been ap pointed to begin First Sabbath In July. If In the conference meeting on Saturday before the First Sabbath In July, tbe Brethren had told tbe condition of their crops no doubttbe meeting would have been off. But no objection was raised In conference and the meeting went on. Tbe first day the congregation was small, af ter that they Increased until the bouBe was nearly full. Rev. J. W. Downey, ot East Dur ham preached twelve good sermons. There was much Interest from the beginning. Quite a number professed faith In Christ, several backsliders were reclaimed. It was a meeting of-much spiritual power. There is a prospect for a fairly good corn crop. J ne toDacco crop is very inferior, though it has Improved right much during the last week. Much of the crop has drowned and can never recover. The extremely hot weather the last week in June made several men and horses sick. One horse died from over heat, REPORTER.

A Wonderful Record. As made up by improved and exact processes Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion is a most efficient remedy for regu lating all the womanly functions, corrcctr ing displacements, as prolapsus, antever sion and retroversion, overcoming painful periods, toning up the nerves and bring ing about a perfect state of health. It cures the backache, periodical headaches, the dragging-down distress in the pelvic region, the pain and tenderness over lower abdominal region, dries up the pelvic catarrhal" drain, so disagreeable and weakening, and overcomes every form of weakness incident to the organs distinctly feminine. "Favorite Prescription" is the only medicine for women, the makers of which are not afraid to print their formula on the bottle wrapper, thus taking their patrons into their full con fidence. It is the only medicine for women, every ingredient of which has the strongest possible endorsement of the most eminent medical practitioners and writers of our day, recommending it for the diseases for which "Favorite Prescription" is used. It is the only put-up medicine for women, sold through druggists, which does not con tain a large percentage of alcohol, so harmful in the long run, especially to delicate women. It has more genuine cures to its credit than all other medi cines for women combined, having saved thousands of sufferers from the operating table and the surgeon's knife. It has restored delicate, weak women to strong and vigorous health and virility, making motherhood possible, where there was barrenness before, thereby brighten ing and making happy many thousands of homes by the advent of little ones to strengthen the marital bonds and add sunshine where gloom and despondency had reigned before.
