The cotton fields begin to show the fleecy staple and the pickers w ill soon be busy from early morn to dewy eve stripping the fields of snow-white harvest. Will the farm ers sell at once, or will they hold their cotton to lose money on it? Fire near Plymouth. hile at Plymouth last Friday we learned that on the night before Mr. John Ambrose who lived 4 miles from Plymouth had the mistortune to lose his houee and its entire contents by fire.

A genuoman who lived in Scotland Xeck two years ago visited the town recently and after looking around he said he be lieved that the town is more prosper ous than he had ever seen it.

The editor of The Democrat ran down the road a dav hist week. Tar- - j mele is perhaps the most wonderful town in Eastern Carolina. Five years ago no one who rode on the cars from Rocky Mount to Williamston would ever have dreamed that the croaking of frogs in the swamp midway between Bethel and Robersonyille was the pre lude to the hum of machinery and mer riment of a town club. But such was the case. The Parmele-Eccleson Lum ber Company now flourishes there, the waste place has begun to blossom, the croak of the frogs has been silenced by the hum of machinery and the crack of the hammer and the town has a nlensnre. club. Let no one say that I have used Macnair's Blood and town building is impossible anywhere. Plymouth is the same good-natured old town it has been for a long time. Several new buildings indicate prog ress and the people there, like elsewhere in the State, hope for good business this fall.
