Sept. 20 1911 R0XB0R0 SEVENTH. The report shows that the Roxboro market was the seventh in this State last year, tfyere be ing only six other markets which soldniore than this market. Now, that is a good showing, but when we consider the amount raised in this County and, the sections tributary to it there should be fewer markets ahead of us. For many years this County has given itself almost exclusively to the raising of to bacco, and this system has seen our farmers got poorer and poorer. It is simply impossible ;Jor any section to confine " itself tothejpne "money crop" and prosper.

Rockingham county." 'If our memory-serves us riekt v ; , some time since.a report was iji the air thai such a farm was to J,t irom Caswell, ; Sfranville and - ; Jrerson visited the Board con- cerning the location of said f aiHn? . Nothing, was done about the mat- : ter, that is it was not established but the delegations were assured 332 'that the next : farm- established would be established in the sec tion known as the -Bright Beft but this notice implies that the Agricultural Board has forgotten this meeting. In fact, as farN as this County is concerned, there had as wejl be no Board, for wej are not even given an experiment al farm of the Smallest . dimen sions. But we merely mention tilis to show how short, is the mem0ry ol man: "Sensational Developments Expected." Such have been the headlines in all of the dailies con cerning the murder of Miss Myrtle Hawkins at Henderson ville. It has been more than a week since the crime wras com mitted and yet no arrests have been made. To an outsider this case looks as if it was easy of solution. Here was a young girl 17 years old who had been be trayed and to hide her shame a criminal operation was perform ed unsuccessfully. It is hoped those guilty of the crime will re ceive their' just dues. I We received a letter from the Western Newspaper Union ad vising us if we could use it that they were authorized to send us' a page of matter boosting one of the candidates for the Senate.
