Three Stills Captured.'
Monday Deputy Marshal Mor
ris and J. F.,, Lifsey and. Mess,
Gates, Cash and Barnett went out
and captured three stills and two
men. The first two stills were
found over on Hyco and in the
afternoon they made a second raid
and captured one.. overt, near the
Lake. At the third" capture were
three men, but one ofWthe men
succeeded in getting away. Depu
ty Morris out ran and took in the
two men Tom Chatham and Brud
Duncan. They were carried to
Durham and had a hearing bound
over to Federal Court in the sum
of one thousand Hollars . each,
which being unable to give they
were placed in jail. After awhile
these moonshiners will learn that
tempt while Bob Morris ison du
ty. If you want this business
broken up just give him a tip and
soon you will see men and still
brought in.

The Tobacco Market. - x
.Tobacco has been doing very
much better for the past - week, in
1 . ' 1 A' l ! !
Ifact the farmers are feeling very
inuch better over tlie prices. Last
Thursday; the Hyco Wareh ause
made an average of something
more than twelve dollars for the
entire sale, and they had a very
good break, too. Sales Monday
and Tuesday at all of the houses
werev good, and indeed, some of
them may have made better aver
ages than the one quoted above,""
but we did not have an opportuni
ty to see them about their sales.
We believe the sales here are
just as satisfactory as on any of
the markets and you will make no
mistake to get your tobacco in
gbodVshape for handling and sell

One day last week it was, our' I "
pleasure to see the farm 'of Mri
Alex, Bass; in Cuningham town-. v. '
ship. This a splendid farm, with a ''
magnificent old mansion adbraingV V ?
the place. But it was not the beau- ; c v.
tiful home which attracted our at
tentioq. It was a herd of some- .C
thirty'or forty nice, sleek year
lings which wer grazing on a.'-..
field of grass. Mr. Bass has solved V : v
the question oi farming and in a ; s"
few years his neighbors will note' ;-
his prosperity and will' get into; ' -the
cattle raising business. I . , , . '
This is a fine farming communi
ty, for hard'b.ris the farm of Mr. '
E. W. Carters and adjoirbg this-"
is the farm of Mr. Judson ' Greeny7
and this trip of good farmers can'
not be excelled in this or any pth-
