Whh Roxboro Selling Tobacco the f Old Auction Way end the New. 15,000.000 Pounds. , Co-operative Delivery Plan On next Tuesday, September 5th, f the tobacco market will open in Rox-1J boro. This opening will be at the New.,? Hyco, whiclJ has just been completed ]; and is easily one of the most modern, p most convenient warehouses ever. ? built in Roxboro. It is fire predf 2 throughout?that is as. near fire- proof |2 as it is possible.to build a house. The j) stalls will have, nothing whicH can, - burn ssve the trough, and the sheath-; J ing which si^pp'orts the roof is about! At tH.' only things connected with this]1 M mammoth house which can burn. P On the ..opening day all of the big i.-ill bwvA tVjr huvera m j the market, and the independent buy-i4 ers wil be on hand as usual, ^'ftW two J redrying' paints which will handle, so we are- informed, all tobacco carried 5 them, either by the ' Association or K any other firm. If you are going to;8 sell the 6M way and have sdme tobac-'|T co ready bring in a load and try out ? the market! Tib indications are that the prices wil| be 'very satisfactory. The opening: day for the Association ^ has not been set for the old belt, but ? we suppose it will be only a short ;J wh?le until they open and then you ^ will see things begin to fiim in this j J good old town. In any event,'whether|8 you sell the old way or the new wayifj every arrangement has been made * . for you and you are cordially invited to bring your tobacco to Roxboro. > SCHOOL NOTES. . 1 In regard to schools books?be sore1 " to find out how many books will be ] needed in each grade.

The North Carolina fuel director states that he cannot promise any encour-Sgnroent. In the absence- of Senator Overman and Simmons, whp ate. in NortH Carolina, A. M. Mclteon .of Senator Ch-erman's office and Prank Hampton, of Senator Simmons office immediately took this matter up in person with the fuel admistrator, and were advised by him that the Minneola Manufacturing company's application for ccal must be recommended by the North Carolina local coal distributor, and that the local distributm is bound by the classific snd Hive accordingly advised the co.

R Ho .sa^d- he had deoided to do this first of all for the good itmight do, imd sedond as an expression of hist leep interest in education .and the! schools of the county. Really, I do bi not know how to express my great ti appreciation for this fine contribu- li: t'ion to our schools and for tlfe many, c< many acts of kindness ?,y these years, sc tte^sinijgly open* the columns of his i<. paper each"- session, free of cost, to ai all "the teachtHPS and schools of the tl c-ounty. He stands ready and willing pi at all times to lend his valuable aid to the sclbols in all their interests f( with word or pen: Then, too, he does el it so well, sa.frnnply, nnri so construr- l-U tively! Truly we have a great editor, o\ thoroughly alive not only to the best a: interest of our-schools but to every rt good couse for the betterment -of our a: citizens.
