WILL HAVE INFLUENCE FOR GOOD. For the first time in the history, of the State alleged members of a mob have been indicted by a-grand jury: ■Borne of tlie meu hove not yet been convicted but several of them have pleaded guilty and nre being used as State's witnesses. It is a wholesome vign when men of the State will indict their neighbors for con duct that heretofore has always gone un noticed. The men indicted are charged with en tering the Jail of Martin county and tak- I ing from the jail Joseph) Needleman, charged with assault on a white girl. They did not wait for Needleman to be convicted. They just took the law in their own hands and their crime was as revolting as the one they charged Needle man with, for after carrying him from the jail they criminally operated on him. Efforts have been made in the past in North Carolina to learn the identity of mob members, but never before was the State able to get sufficient evidence to re sult in an indictment. The men of Mar tin county who issued the indictments, despite the fnct that in many instances they undoubtedly were indicting friends, should be commended. They are going at the matter in the right manner and their action is certain to have influence for good. Mob law is not going to be allowed in North Carolina and it is time the fact is being admitted. Time was when a mob could get away with anything,' but that time has gone and gorte forever, we be lieve. Needleman may have been guilty of the charge against him, but that would give no one the right to criminally han dle him. The operation was decided on undoubtedly for one reason—the mob thought it would be worse than death. They did not decide on the operation in stead of hanging because of any consid eration for Needleman. They were giv ing him what they thought was the worst thing they could give him. The wonder is that he didn’t die. Needleman is to be tried for the as sault and the court enu be expected 'to give, the case the justice it deserves. The members of the mob, whoever they might be, may have thought they could make such an example of Needleman,that oth er persons would take warning. Instead of that they were showing a spirit that tends to break down all laws. Two wrongs never make a right, and instead of improving matters they made matters worse. If Needleman is convicted we will be lieve he is guilty and we want him to get the full limit of the lnw. And at the same time we want the same treatment for the men who mutilated him after' breaking into the jail. A WISE £KTEP. Hundreds of dogs in the city of Con cord have been vaccinated during the past several weeks as a result of the or dinance passed by the aldermen making it unlawful for a dog to run at large unless he has been given the serum against rabies. Owners'of dogs which have not been treated should hnvp been vaccinated at once: 1 I BY CHARLES P. STEWART NEA Service Writer \Y / ABHINGTON —Congressman W Martin L. : Davey of Ohio estimates—or. aa he puts It, gueaae*—that America could dou ble her farni production If ahe tried. Few farmers, even, have studied the soil as Davey has. He calls himself a “tree surgeon.” I think “tree doctor" fits better, with the emphasis on “tree dietet> lcs." Os course if a tree needs an op eration, Davey operates. He has so be something of a general prac titioner. A boreal medicine la young. It hasn’t reached the stage of much specialization. But in the main. It seems to me that Davey prefers doctoring to the knife. Like most good doctors, he con cerns himself principally with What hia patients eat, depending little on drugs. • * • TREES’ bread and butter, meat and potatoes, cake and Ice cream are the soil, with a lit tle flavoring and a few relishes which they absorb from the air. So, as a tree dietician, Davey stud ies the soil. Farmers study the soil, too, but \Davey’s study has to be more thorough than theirs. For a tree has such an appetite! “It’s only k big plant, after all,” observes Davey. Yes, but whereas a plant like a stalk of grain requires only cubic inches of soil, .a tree re quires cubic yards. It follows that Davey has to go Into It more deeply—in the literal as well as the figurative sense—than almost anybody, except a miner or a prospector drilling for oil. Thus what he knows about the soil is the last word. •• • " AS an expert, then, Davey points out that very little soli remains on earth which Isn’t already being farmed. As for this country, “all the land available for cultivation and not now culti vated,” he Bay 9, "is about equal to the state of Illinois. When this And there is not reason why farm people should not bave their dogs vacci nated. It is true that the dog in the country does not have the opportunity to contract the disease that the city dog has, but just the same he can be made | practically immune for SI,OOO, and it does seem that the farmer would rather pay I j cliauo, Last year i several mad dogs Visits several' parts of', the county and they left havoc in their j wake. They not only bit dogs, but they j hit hogs, cows and other stock. The farm- . er is not required by law to vaceinate his dog but the dollar invested in the vacci nation would be a dollar well invested. The rabjrs vaccine works in nine cases out of ten. That was proven here last year after the aldermen first passed the lnw requiring dogs to be vaccinated. Not a single case of rabies was reported in the city and as a, result not a person was bitten by a mad dog. The European tour which is -being planned by Secretary Blanks qf the Con cord Y. M. C. A. is creating all kinds of publicity for Concord and -the Y. Mr. Blanks has forty persons signed for the tour now and many of them reside out side of Concord.

With a surplus already—or what Davey calls an “apparent surplus’’—they ahk, “Why raise more?” “Our present-day prob lem," they say at the Agriculture Department, “Is one of marketing. Production will take care of Itself.’’ “But our increasing popula tion;” Davey urgeß. “When we reach* the subsistence limit—What then?” “That will be a long time,” answer some. “Less than a gener ation, judging from the past," In sists Davey. “In my own short life I have seen farm after farm abandoned, exhausted, that In my youth produced excellent crops." • • • 44 A 7 the worst we can trek XI elsewhere," argue the op timists.

USE PENNY COLUMN—IT PAYS THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE ASHEVILLE CLIMATE AND SCENERY HIGHLY PRAISED | Dr. Kellogg, of Battle Creek. the I City Is Abundantly Blessed. | Asheville Citizen. : i s " - Asheville, abundnaitly blessed w’tli beautiful scenery, healthful climate and the most perfect snn conditions should 1 exploit these features, ileclareh Dr. John Harvey Kellogg. 52 years superintendent j of Hattie Creek Sanitarium, t editor of "Good Health" and ohe of the lending ex ponents of the outdoor cure for al! dis- ’ eases. "The sun In Asheville," the physiciaii observed, "is admirably suited to the cure ! of almost all diseases. It lacks those un desirable ultra-violet rays found in high-1 er- altitudes and. has a decided advantage over Florida and similar lowlands in not j having to combat the dampness. "Asheville is not awake to the good fortune bestowed upon her. There should be huge outdoor gymnasiums where men and women, scantily clad that their bod ies might absorb the health of the sun. might enjoy outdoor games. Every school should be so' equipped. A few sanitar iums here are offering their patients this treatment but the same advantages should be arranged for thp healthy. It is so much easier to keep well than to re pair the ravages of disease." Dr. Kellogg, who is nearing his 74th birthday, puts in eighteen hours and morp of concentrated effort every day. In his youth he sufferetUn severe attack of chlorine gas while working in a labora tory and before the age of twenty had in curred tuberculosis which has cost him the use of one' iiing. Despite this handi cap lie lias worked hard, sleeping no tftore than-six hours a day, has built up Battle Creek from a cottage with 12 pai tents in 1873 to its present capacity. of .4,000 to Which is always added a waiting list. "No man expends all his energies in work," the doctor said. "A large per centage is wasted, frittered away combat ting tlie effects excesses, of cigarette smoking, over-eating, over-drinking and the use of coffee and similar stiulants. For the man who works, seven hours a night should be test enough. But when one drinks'coffee to create a false effect of freshness, when lie taxes his lungs with cigarettes, burdens his stomach with excess food, he is wearing out his system to the point where the normal allowance does not refresh tired nerves and ids health disappears.” Dr. Kellogg is preparing to establish a branch of Battle Creek sanitarium near New Y’ork in response to tlie great de mand of patients from the hectic city. Asheville, lie admitted, would be a logi, cal center for such a, branch but owing to press of other affairs officials of the institution were not prepared to give their attention to such n project now. "At Battle Creek so great is tlie per centage of cloudy days we must create onr own shunshine bv means of high powered electric lamps. But Asheville, with an unbelievable number of sunuy days, is not taking advantage of tlie gifts of nature. Yofir, advertisements should feature the sun, should bear upon the health to be found out of doors, should emphasize the value of tlie solar treat ment amid conditions that permit an out door life." Dr. Kellogg at 74 is the picture of that health he expipits. His blood pressure is normal, his skin bright-colored, digestion normal, arteries sound ami physique supe rior to tlia-t of many men a score of years younger. 'tobacco, no stimulants, no coffee, sparing food anil plenty of work, he holds, are the cause of his health. .Jn Asheville he has found that relief from steady work amid surroundings that lie claims nre perfect. He feasts his eyes on the crystal air and his body on the sunshine. What more, lie asks, can any man ask? Nothing, he answers his own question, save that the world be told of the curative properties of Asheville's sun and its climate. septic poisorT comes from infection of cuts, scratches, insect bites, flesh wounds and every dgy bumps and bruises.
