ROWAN AND DAVIE.
Salisbury, Special. Klutts for Con
gress gets 1,600 majority in Kowan.
The Democratic electoral ticket gets
800 or 1,000. Mr. Kluttz's lead is due to
his personal popularity. The employes
of the railroad shops and cotton mills
voted principally for McKinley or
Woolley. The latter"s vote in the
county will equal the usual Prohibition
vote in the State.

When to Sow Wheat. .
Tbe time for seeding fall wheat de
pends on so many circumstances that
no definite rule can be given. If tbe
land baa been plowed early and no in
sects are present, good results can be
obtained by seeding in early Septem
ber; If, however, there is danger from
the Hessian fly or from grasshoppers,
or there Is promise of a Iste, moist au
tumn producing rank growth, It Is best
to delay seeding until tbe first two
weeks In October. If the plants grow
vigorously, they will become well es
tablished and a good crop will result
from late seeding. Any time, then,
from the 10th of September to the
10th of October will answer, the ex
let date being dependent upon the
above conditions.
Treat Hones Kindly- 1
. Never hit a horse on the head. It
Is not only cruel, but foolish. You
may'lnjure him and also make him a
halter puller. If repeated several
times the horse will be afraid to have
you approach his head. Such a horse
will never be sofe for driving. Never
use a whip Unless a horse Is vicious,
and even then kind treatment will
often do more to make him safe and

South Carolina negroes have started
t new industry by the hand-picking of
phosphate rock. During the summer
they anchor boats on the Coosaw river,
which is from 17 to 25 feet deep, and
dive for the fertilizing rock, sometimes
bringing up a fragment weighing too
pounds. The phosphate from the river
bed is the most valuable known. ' .,

friend's advice, and the first box made me all right and I have never
been without them since I take one Tabule each morning and night ,
and sometimes when 1 fee. more than usually exhausted 1 take three in
a day. They have kept my stomach sweeC my bowels regular and I
have not had the least toucv " malaria nor splitting headache since I
commenced using them. I k.iow also that I sleep better and wake up
more refreshed than formerly. I don't know how many complaints
Ripans Tabules will help, but I do know they will cure any one in the

honestly consider them the cheapest-priced medicine in the world, as
they are also the most beneficial and the most convenient to take.
