MIRACULOUS CURE
BY CUTICURA REMEDIES
'When mjr little boy ni ix months old, he
bad tciema. The lores extended so quickly
(W the whole body that we at once called in
the doctor, we then
went to another doctor,
but he could not help
him, and in our despair
we went to a third one.
Matters became so bad
that he h-.d regular

finger into. The food

spoon, for his mouth
- was covered with crusts
aa thick as a finger, and
whenever he opened the
r.iouth thojr began to
bleed and suppurate, as
did also his eyes.
Hands, anns, cheat, and
back, in short the whole
body, was covered over
and OTer. Wj had no
rest by day or night.
Whenever lie was laid
in his bed, we had to
pin his hands down:
otherwise he would

scratch his face, and
make an open sore. I thiuk his face must
hare itched most fearfully.
" We finally thought nothing could help,
and I had made up my mind to send my wife
with the child to Europe, hoping that the sea
air might cure him, otherwise he was to be
put under good medical care there. But,
Lord be blessed, matters came differently,
, and we soon saw a miracle. A friend of ours
spoke about Cnticura. We made a trial with
Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent, and
within ten days or two weeks we noticed a
decided improvement. Just aa quickly as the
sickness had appeared it also liegan to dis
appear, and within 1 "U weeks tl.e child was

Special to Journal.
Raleigh, July 10-The North Caro-
i lina Farmers Convention met today.
e opening address was by S. L. Pat-
terson, commissioner 01 i-vgimunuic,
followed by patriotic address of wel
come by Governor Glenn, which was
marked by enthusiasm and praise of
State and its development in air ways.
C, C. Moore, President and ex presie'ent
of Cotton Growers Association of North
Carolina, made the response.
At the afternoon session, Hon. J.
Bryan Grimes, Secretary of State,
spoke on "Ten years of progress in ag
riculture, and agricultural outlook in
North Carolina. " He expressed a gen
eral view of the State's resources, con-
trarted present and old methods, re
viewed the period of depression among
fcirmers and conditions today. Spoke
specifically of adaptation of methods
of steam ind power against, men pow
er, occasioned by scarcity of labor.
Explained that scientific agriculture
had done more in a scientific way than
the appliance of any other type of
science. Was emphatic in statement
that old and supposed barren lands once
almost abandoned had been brought in
to state of greatest profit bearing to
day, because of improved applicat ion
of chemical fertilizers, and noted the
fact that today two and three crops are
grown where one was considered a
hopeless task. Dwelt with force on
educational development, road building
as factor, rural routes, and the parcels
post, also local tax elections and their
effect on education.
Doctor Tait Butler, State Vetrinar-
ian, was strong in his treatment of the
tick trouble, giving three reasons, first
it did sufficient damage by- sucking
blood and depleting stock; second, con
veyed tick fever which killed more cat
tle between May and December than
any six other diseases; third, Federal
quarantine restriction, which so mili
tated against "profitable vc-aring and
breeding, ard depreciated values, some
times as much as a quarter cent a
pound. Have proven the practicability
since have exterminated in ten coun
ties of State.
A. G. Green was impressive and prac
t'cal, and followed in a talk, spoke
against present lien law' as operating
against merchants, farmers, land own
ers and tenants.
Prof. Hume, J. S. Jeffrey, Dr. Wil
cox were not present, will speak at
later time, possibly tomorrow. At
night session speeches were made by C.
B. Harris,- A. L. French and Ed H

ion at Washington, D. C.

Much Rag C'lu'wing and Waste of Time
in Convention That 'Ceroid Have
Been Put to Better Use. Full
Attendance of Delegates
Present. Disappoint
ment to Craven.
The Eighth Senatorial convention
was held at Morehead City yesterday
and it was very much on the order of
an Adams-Bkickburn affair There was
discussion over a non essential techni
cality which to the casual observer
seemed like a waste of words and test
of temper all unnecessary. :
The convention was called to order at
1:30 by Col. S, B. Taylor, of Onslow;
the chairman of the executive commit
tee, Mr. W. S. Chadwick, was detained
by sickness. Mr. J. E. Debnam of
Greene couuty was elected tempoiary
secretary. The roll call of counties
was made to ascertain whether thera
wore contests in the lists of delegates.
All answered none except Lenoir and
right there was the beginning of the
first and worst scrap. Mr. E. M. Land
secretary of the Lenoir delegation an
nounced that there was a contest and
Mr. Plato Collins made the assertion
that there was none, stating that the
list presented -was duly authorized and
signed by the chsirman anJ secretary,
Mr. Land hi tnselt being the secretary.
Mr. Land insisted that there was a con
tort on b-jc-iuse the d-jU-gutes wen-
not allowed to appoint their own dele
gates. After considerable oi3cuasion
some of which showed some temder,
other delegates butted in trying to
allay the difficulty and they made it all
the worse. " The confusion made by
this Dlav was of course intense. The
matter was ended by the convention
putting Lenoir county on the creden
tial committee.
The appointing of committee on reso
lutions and platform was the next in
order and was as follows: Dr C N
Mason, R A Nunn, J B Frazelle, T D.
Warren, L R Varser. W M Thompson.
The committee on permanent organiza
tion were D C Wade, E M Green, E L
Horton, L P Tapp, W B Sande.-s. After
the appointment of these committees
the convention took a recess of thirty
minutes. . '
Upon resuming proceedings the com
mittee on permanent organization re
ported Mr. Plato Collins, of Lenoir as
chairman arid Walter Thompson, of
Onslow, aa Secretary. The report of
the committee on resolutions and plat
form was made through Mr. L. R,
Varser. It endorsed the platform as
adopted. by the State Democratic Con
vention; the temperance laws as shown
in the Watts and the Ward lawsj Sena
tor Simmons' candidacy for re-election
to the United States Senate. They is
sued inetaruetioiw to the nominees that
they should assist in every way' enact
ment of laws compelling the material
and substantial reduction of freight and
passenger rates. Ths report was unan
imously adopted. ;
The" nomination of candidates were
then fn order. Carteret yielded her
right to make nomination tq Lenoir and
L, RliYarser placed the name ot Y. 'I.
Ormond before the convention; Mr. C,
E. Foy nominated D L Ward; 1 .second
to Ward's nomination came from Mr.

Dr. Sanders of Carteret,'and T D War

name of J W Burton, of Onsloy amid

Special to Journal.
Raleigh, J u'y 11. -President Moore,
of the State Farmers Convention made
a big sensation today .when he charged
State officials, city officials, merchants,
manufacturers, bankers and profess
ional men for their notable indifference
in regard to the farmerf meetings. He
saM that it was a matter of intense re
gret that no hand of hospitality and
welcome had been extended to the vis
iting farmers inasmuch as the farmers
contributed so much to their welfare.
His remarks were strong and were
directed to the citizens.
A resolution was introduced by Mr.
E. L. Daughtridge and seconded by Mr.
R. H. Gower, and it was unanimously
adopted that a special tax be levied on
farms for the support of the Agricult
ural and Mechanical College be in
amount taken from the State treasury
funds as others not specifically taxed
for other departments.
That agricultural education is entitled
to the same helpful nurture as in other
brauches, -that in no wise shall special
fertilizer tax be diverted to other inter
ests from agricultural advancement af
ter the farmers of the State receive for
their business the same support and
consideration that other interests re
ceive. The executive committee of the
North Carolina cotton growers associa
tion after consideration of the resigna
tion of President C. C. Moore, of Meck-
nburg county, declined to accept it,
holding in abeyance until the special
meeting to be held in August.
The afternoon session was devoted to
tispection of agricultural buildings,
band concert, and address of H. C.
Docke.-y, Chairman of the Executive
Committee Cotton Growers Association
His words were admonishment to higher
and more ethical life among farming
classes appealed especially for boys on
the farm, their proper care and nourish
ment as well as education and more
encouragement of gentler and subtler
amenities that civilize and educate.
Mr. Dockery paid high tribute to Presi
dent Moore and reviewed successes and
strugles of cotton growers. . Qe called
on farmers for more liberal support
showing how association had so slight
beginning in resources and direct re
lief afford by merchants, -others em
phasizing need for corporation and
direct help among themselves.
