NEW BERN SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL I- STOCK LAW SALVATION OF NORTH CAROLINA SAYS BION H. BUTLER Declares That This State Has a Most Glor ious Opportunity If it Will Get Rid of the Cattle Ticks. from a letter from ftion H. Antler, Stock Law.) It seems to me that your folks will surely vote for the stock Uw. And when the matter is settled, and yon proceed to clean up the ticks so that you can raise the right kind of cattle you want the world to know of your unparallelled facilities for stock rais ing. 1 I have seen much of the beef rais ing section of the United States, from the farms of New England and the Middle Northern States to the ranges of Texas, California and the West, and I cannot imagine anything that is superior for beef production to the mild climate and broad acres you have in your territory. If you ever find a better cattle prospect than in Craven and Jones counties, I would advise you to tie it up and hang to it. But you can't make cattle and ticks on the same ground. A few days ago I was at the plan tation of Roger A. Derby, the presi dent of the North Carolina Beef Breeders' and Feeders' Association. It is' not very long ago that the Derby place was in the tick infested terri tory and the type of cattle there wag the helpless hopeless scrub that could not be made into anything. But now on the Derby place are two pure blood Short horn bulls recently bought at the Asheville sale of selected animals. and the farmers are improving their stock so that in the course of half a dozen years it will be possible to gar ther up most any time a oar load of selected, uniform beef steers fit for the most particular market. "Si 3111UB me ucks nave gone uerov has been feeding cattle, and he has sent several oars to the Northern markets, and they bring as much on the hoof as the scrub Cattle will bring for dressed meat by the pound. Over at Pinehurst not long ago, before the season had olosed I was talking one day to Mr. John R. McQueen, the Manager of that big resort, and he had in his hand a statement of a steer killed that morning. It dressed out about a thousand jiounds, and with the hide and trimming: brought a hundred dollars. The moat was sold to the hotels, and the Carolina, which is probably the most jxrlieuUr h i', 1 in the State, said the meat was as good as that which they bring down from Bo iton where thoy get the most of their particular supply. The steer was fed and fattened on the Pine hurst farm, and the herd of fine cat tle I saw there the other day is suffi cient evidence that it pays to bo rid of ticks. I happened to see a letter from R. 8. Curtis, Secretary of the Breeders' Association, in which he mentions the purchase of a car of heifers for the Derby farm, which is extending its line of pure Short horn breeding stock. Three or four years ago it would have been impossible to sell a oar of breeding stock to any farmer in this section Of the State, for it would have been a dead certainty that ticks would get every one of them be fore (he calf orop would amount to half dozen Calves. I whs interested by the statement of J. H. Sham berg, of the Jersey City Stock yards, regarding beef from the South. He sN: "The first infiimation that I had that the H orth Carolina pos- sessed good was about eigh- teen months when Mr. R. 8. Curtis cam York to invest gate the ing of those oattle At tha ti ookod at the matter rather' skei ly. I thought the h Carolina were verv cattle from small and H&bred, such as they have down in Florida. "Last witt I had the pleasure of receiving oi market some of the cattle thatjMM fed in this State, and I must say that we and the butchers of New York were all very mueh as tonished to know that the eattle were not only good and fat, but they killed out fine, and to-day the butchers of New York are only waiting for us. to tell them that we have eattle from North Carolina." From Free District. These cattle oame front the dis tricts that have been freed from tieks. Heretofore the Northern mar kets bare been familiar with the oa fe ll' of the tick sections, Sinoe the tieks are gone the cattle that are ship ped North are of a different type, and k Mr Shamberg says, the butchers of New York are onlv waiting to h old that North Carolina entile are the market latsrof-fo ' li t f ( Now .rKt Now these cattle he speaks of are t cattle from your section, for you cannot send your oattle out of the quarantine territory except under certain very rigid restrictions, and you can't send out such cattle as New York butchers are waiting for be cause you do not have that kind of eattle in tick infested pastures. Mr. Shamberg was asked by some one if the South oan grow beef suc cessfully, and he answered: "I know that the South can breed and raise beef oattle because it has been shown to me. Whether they can do it successfully or not is a ques tion that they must find out for them selves. The question whether they can do it or not is decided, I think they must do it. There is the situation. The South has the climate and the range to make the meat supply for much of the East and it must do it. You cannot have our hands of Jones and Craven counties wastefully grazing a little handful of scrub cattle not worth enough to pay for the fences that you must keep around your fields while the oattle run the range. You must get better oattle, make better beef and more of it, and make it in such a way that it will be worth Something to you and worth something to the butcher who is looking for beef oattle so that you can find a market for what you make. We had a right 1 ively time up here to get rid of ticks, and probably you will meet with some opposition down your way. But now that we realize the difference if anybody would pro pose to go back to the old tick days and ways It would not excite debate nothing but laughter. You might as well propose to go back to the days of sand roads, instead of the improved roads we have all over our section and the automobiles. And speaking of good roads I will tell you something else. Good roads will get you the stock law if nothing else does, for good roads will get Ford ears ofa the farms all around and the farmers will not stop to open and i hut Btwwk law-gntesan the way tato-v and They will insist on ope'n roads and no stock law fences. Just by the way of showing what getting rid of ticks will do R. S. Cur tis, of the Beef Breeders' Association, tells me that the Association is going to have an exhibit of a car load of beef cattle from the part of the State that is free from ticks to show at the In ternational Live Stock show in Dec ember. I think this is to be held in Chicago, and it is also likely that the same car will be exhibited in Raleigh at the State Fair there in October. Plans are also on foot to have an ex hibition at Raleigh at the same tint r f cittUt "ro.ii Pii.elrrr', whic be iu.wn as a product of Ootto Seed Meal and grass of a North Caro lina farm. - You see that getting rid of ticks has brought North Carolina into right fast Company as far as cat tle raising is concerned. I want to see .you carry the stock law in your sec tion, and I hone you will go into the campaign in earnest, for 1 realize af ter our experience up hero what J means to your section." CATTLE THIEVES ARE VffiY ACTIVE N. A. Purifoy Has Lest a Number of His Animals N. A. Purifoy, of Olympia, was in New Bern yesterday and while talk ing to a Journal reporter told of losing several head of cattle during the past several months. They did not die with tiok fever or from an other natural cause but were killed by some contemptible sneak. Mr. Purifoy said that he has been missing his eattle for about twelve months and during that time ten head have diappeared, at a lose to him of not less than two hundred and fifty dollars. In addition to the ones that he has lost, several have been verelv wounded hv tlw MintMli of a ihot ffun being discharged into their body.

The follow ing have recently been completed and occupied: Store, Webb Bros.; market, B. F. Humphrey; residences, M. E. Hloodgood. Jr.. T. H. Pritch ard. Other residences under construc tion as follows: P. B. Smith, Lee Smith, Iasiah Willis. Mr. Carl Ward is having the lumber hauled and will begin building at once. Mr. T. H. Pritchard is preparing to erect a two-story cottage for Mrs. Sadie Byrd. Mr. Kay Bloodgood and C. T. Russell will commence building at an early date.

The following young ladies from Sanford are guests of a house party at Mrs. Dr. Daniels: Misses Margar et Jones, Floy Jones, May Cross, Hattie Parks and Marie Judge. The gas boat Lallie carried a large crowd over to the beach Friday afternoon, leaving her dock at 5 p. m. and returning about 9. All had a dip in the surf and a good time in general. Dr. O. C. Bender of Pollocksville in is Swansboro for a few days on one of his professional visits in the practice of dentistry. He is stopping with Mr. Emra Rogers. Mrs. Philip Adler and two child ren of Kinston, who have been visit ing Mr. and Mrs. Sam Adler for sev eral weeks, returned home Wednes day. Farmers Optimistic This is the first year in our memory when' the' farmers were unanimously optimistic over the crop outlook. It is a besetting sin with them to underestimate their prospects, and even" In the best crop years when ovegyshiag IboIm !( stBsslSSiai- ful, when asked about their crops they will shake their heads mourn fully and tell you in a voice that sounds like an artificial spook in a stage cemetery that they will only make a third, or a half a crop. But this year has caught them with the goods and they fiind it difficult to deny the allegation. They just plead guilty and ask the mercy of the court. Lucky fellows! Just as soon as we learn the useful art of manufacturing sweet potatoes which study we are di:ously pursuing on a little Agri- sulturists Experimental Station of our own, situated in the back lot of our domicile we shall become a ompetitor in the most independent vocation on earth, and we expect yet to wear a orown of 'tatar vines and corn tassels and head the procession with a jumbo pumpkin emblazoned on our coat of arms. We speak seriously, however, facetious it may sound. Eloquence Galore Before waving you ft farewell, we wish to rise and remark that we feel we have not done our full duty if we leave without ranting a little more about this wonderful, exhilir- ng, rejuvenating, delicious, re freshing, animating, health-giving sou' wester which we have in such super abundance down here. We are just crazy over that sou-wester. It is a life-saver. It is a miracle worker. It is peaches and honey, and straw berries and cream. It is inspiring and invigorating; a maker of cheerful thoughts and a dispeller of the blues. It makes people laugh, well, happy and brave. A money-burdened grouch came down and partook of it just a week and went away a millionaire of cheerfulness. A cross-eyed office boy, perfectly straight, only he look ed crooked, mixed a little of it in his respiration, and now he is a bank clerk. A minister, so sad that when he said grace the coffee froze, ab sorbed some of it in his anatomy, and now he preaches to standing room only. His church janitor, a hard luck goat, so poor if it rained soup he didn't have a bucket to catch it in, eased a little of it into his system, now is a salesman at 135 per. An old maid, of hopeless, impossible age, so mournful that the and-irons wept when sho came near them, rejuve nated her oosmo with it and married the best man in the world. It makes the web-footed brain hit the star dust trail of golden success. Puts velvet on the salesman's tongue and outs the fuxs out of the buyer's ear. Shows you how to love' your relatives and not be miserable doing it. Fills you with desire to live your life all over again and be happy, though married. It causes the hinges on cemetery gates to become eaten up with rust. Undertakers go out of business where it is around. People quit the dying habit Every person suffering from per spiration over-heated constitutions C0L0Rll0N PICNIC SUCCES s Spent Last Wednesday at Glenburnie Park The Inion-Paein idea was Irst discussed by the evicted ministers union of our erty sad nine Sunday schools adopted it, to-wit Methodists, St. Peters, Clinton Chapel. Trinity, Baalists, First Bap tuts, Star of lion. Christian. Gild field, St. ( yptian. P. I. and Ebe neser Presbyterian. Wednesday, July 14th, was se lected as the day for picnic. Two steamers, the Howard and Phil lips were secured to convey the crowd to and from the famous play ground. At six o'clock on Wednesday morn ing, the bells of the different churches began to call together the merry groups of children and adults and by 7:30 the first load left foot of Pol lock street, nor did the stream of humanity cease until nearly 2500 persons were on the grounds. They came through the country in buggies, wagons, automobiles and on foot, a happy, well-behaved crowd. AH children under 9 were given free tickers, and such a lot of jolly youngsters you never saw. Scores of babies, baby carriages, go-carts, etc, scattered all over the beautiful, rolling, breeze-kissed Glenburnie, en joying a real Sunday school picnic. Much credit is being given the min isters and Sunday school officers for handling one of the largest crowds ever gathered for a united annual picnic in New Bern, without any accidents or disorders of a serious nature. The Rev. Hazel and Gaskill and highly commended for handling the crowd to and from the picnic grounds. The former managed the Howard and the latter, the Phillips. All ex pressed themselves as being highly pleased with the courtesy and vig ilance of Capts. Jones and Phillips whose steamers carried the pincicers without any mishaps or frictions whatsoever. This, the most prodigious scheme of annual picnic, come late to the public notice perhaps. It is because of the absence of wd 'sm f I uentvffout my JEuS- events which would have given it prominence in our dailies. "Happy is that people whose annals are brief." i Mention should be made of Rev. Brooks, President of the ministers union, for his untiring zeal in the pro motion of this successful event, and to Mr. B. F. Cloud who so cleverly managed the selling of tickets at the wharf. The ministers union wish to ex press sincere thanks to the manage ment of Glenburnie for the use of the grounds, and to Lawyer D. E. Henderson for his assistance. We assure these gentlemen that -we have shown our appreciation by sending men the following day to put pavilion and grounds in as neftt a shape as we found them. By II. C. MILLER.

HUBBY WANTS DIVORCE. Wife Don't Want to Family. Leave Her Atchison, Kan., July 17. The ina bility of his wife to leave her own fam ily figures as an important reason in the divorce suit instituted by William C. Holliday against Mamie Holliday, filed in the District Court by T. A. Moxoey, as attorney. Except for a few short months, immediately after their marriage, Mrs. Holliday re fused to live away from her parents. Twice during the short period of marriage her husband ga e up good positions in order to gratify his wife's wishes in the matter, but finally gave it up as a bad job and seeks an annul ment of the marriage. The Hollidays wcro married in May, 1912. At that timo Mr. Holliday was employed in a good position at Hia watha. In the fall of the same year his wife went on a visit to the home of her parents in Tuslsa, Ok.

Swann of Stone wall Selected to Take Charge of the Affairs of the Institution. Ef forts Will Be Made To Protect Depositors. Oriental, July 17. W. J. Swsnn of Stonewall and president of the Bank of Pamlico, was today appoint ed receiver for the Bank of Oriental whose cashier, J. Will Miller, last Monday committed suicide and the affairs of which institution were found in such bad shape. As before stated, Mr. Miller's personal indebetedness to the bank is not more than twelve hundred dollars and this will be paid as he had insurance policies aggregating five thousand dollars. The affairs of the bank were due solely to the fact that bad loans had been made and that while the collateral placed for these is possibly good, it is of the "slow" variety and there is no money on hand to pay the demands of the depositors. The directors yesterday met and endeavored to borrow twenty or twenty-five thousand dollars from some other banks in this section but they wen- unable to do this. Just what steps will be taken by Mr. Swann to liquidate the indebted ness of the institution are not known, in fact he has not made his intentions public. However, he will be given the assistance of the directors and stockholders in every way possible. Mrs. Miller, formerly Miss Nellie Kimhrell of Martinsburg, W. Va., will probably continue to make her home at this place with her two child ren. iShe is recovering from the pro stration caused by the tragic death of her husband. Just why Mr. Miller committed suicide continues to mvstifv all. It is known that he could have ar ranged the affairs of the institution so that no blame could have been attached to him, in fact there was no criminal intent shown on his part. The only solution is that he has for weeks worried over the con dition of affairs and this finally drove him to desperation and he fired the ffttol shot which ended his career. Picnics Galore A union Sunday school picnic from this place was held yesterday at Beaufort and a large crowd went over po the Carteret capital ond thorough- Another picnic is bung held today at Pamlico and this is being featured by a rousing baseball game. A large number were in attendance. The Woman's Club which so suc cessfully rendered "Ma Dusenberry ind the Gearls" at this place a few weeks ago, will go to Pamlico on Tues day night and entertain the citi zens of that place and surrounding section. The cast presenting this play is a capable one and their work has been highly praised. IN MEMORIAM Died at her home, Ocean, N. C, July 6th, 1915, Lula Bell, the 2 yew- old daughter of Alex N. and Etta Weeks. After a lingering illness beginning with a severe attack of choleramorbus merging into Cholera Infantum, and then Typhoid Fever, the frail tene ment of the Soul of this lovely hu man bud, gave way, and at 8:30 P. M., of the 6th inst, angels came to bear her spirit back to heaven. It was a glorious flight for' sweet little Lula, and could she have done so, would have sent back a message to her weeping parents not to cry after her, for the new life was a most happy one to her. Whatever may have been the con versation, we can imagine her won der and delight as she passed the gate into the celestial city. Here greeted her ears, the sweetest music, and her spiritual vision was dazzled with the filtering golden streets, and the happjfrsingtn'; throngs. Borne on to the Throne, whose hx.lo makes Eternal day, her Saviour groi 'Is her lovingly, takes her in his arms, and again exclaims "of eoch is tho Kingdom of Heaven." Lula Bell can not come back to us, but we can go to her is saddened by her departure. In the heara of her Weeping parents, there is an aching void the world cannot fill. They will listen in vain for the sound of her pattering foot steps, and for her sweet voice lisping the name of papa, mama, and daddie. The sympathies of the oommunity for the family so markedly shown during the illness, has deepened into sinccro sorrow over the loss of their sweet little girl. May the good Lord bless them and assuage their sag of grief. Their friend and relative. i. W. SANDERS, Ocean, N. C. Rev. 0. r. Hill, assistant to Rev B. P.

TYPHOID GES JSENT MAK1 IF POISON Mysterious Yello Received by Ma urers in Man ct- Cleveland. Ohio, July 17 A box, declared to contain typhoid germs and a letter c ontaining a yellow pow der, the fumes from whisk hare placed a stenographer in the bare of a physician, were received at the of the Cleveland Automatic ' Company, whose advertise mont of poison bombs in a trade magazine a month ago stirred mueh comsasnt. The company had received many threatening letters, declaring that the plant) would be blown up, but the of ficials paid no heed to them. How ever, the receipt of the germs and the mysterious yellow poison has been brought to the attention of the postal authorities and inspectors are ying to locate the senders. While H. M. Rich, secretary-treasure, and John P. Brophy, vie presi dent, would not discuss the details it was learned that the most of the tbar e and the two packages came from Pittsburgh. The senders of the ty phoid germs sent an anoymous letter with the box, suggesting that the oompany use the germs instead of poison in the shells mentioned in their advertisement, as they would "kill more people." The box was turned over, unopened, to the postal authorities. The letter containing the powder was opened by a stenographer in Rich's office. She became violently ill after inhaling the fumes and is now in a serious condition at Her borne. The box and the powder have been forwarded to Washington by the lo cal post office officials for analysis. "The publicity given the adver tisement, which has all been explain ed as a misunderstanding, is respon sible for the situation," Rich said to night. "The annoyance has gone so far now that it is serious, and must be stopped. The sending of these letters is not an offense against our firm, but against the government, but I am the man who opens the mail, and I am taking all the chances. I've got about all I want of it now. "I am sorry the matter has become public because I believe it would have been better kept secret. Even the men in our plant have not known of these letters." MRS. JOHN J.
