DUNN, Agent sa7 A Proclamation. Whereas by the Act of Congress approved July 2, 1909. the Thirteenth Decennial Census of the United States is to be taken, beginning on the 15 of April, 1910; and whereas a correct enumeration of the population every ten years is required by the Consti tution of the United States for the purpose of determining the repre sentation of the several States in the House of Representatives; and where as it is of the utmost importance to the interests of all the people of the United States that this census should be a ccmplfcte and accurate report of the population and resources of the country: Now, therefore, I, William How ard Taft, President of the United States of America, do hereby declare and make known that, under the act aforesaid, it is the duty of every per son to answer all questions on the census schedules applying to him and the family to which he belongs, and to the farm occupied by him or his family, and that any adult refus ing to do so is subject to penalty The sole purpose of the census is to secure general statistical informa tion regarding the population and re sou rces of the country, and replies are required from individuals only in order to permit the compilation of such general statistics. The census has nothing to do with taxation, with army or jury service, with the com pulsion of school attendance, with the regulation of immigration, or with the enforcement of any nation al, state, or local law or ordinance, nor can any person be harmed in any way by furnishing the information required. There need be no fear that any disclosure will be made regard ing any individual person or his af fairs. For the due protection of the rights and interests of the persons furnishing information every em ployee of the Census Bureau is pro aibited, under heavy penalty, from lisclosing any information which nay thus come to his knowledge. I therefore carnc3t!y uigc upon ill persons to answer promptly, com oletely, and accurately all inquiries addressed to them by the enumerat ors or other employees of the Census Bureau, and thereby contribute their share toward .making this great and necessary public undertaking a suc cess. In witness whereof, I have here unto set my hand and caused the -eal of the United States to be affix ed. Dene at the city of Washington 'his fifteenth day of March A.

An Appeal to tiie Pecplo of North lar olina lor Papers and Letters of Governor Vance. The North Carolina Historical Com mission is making a collection of the letters and papers of Gov. Z. B. Vance, with a view to their prerervation and publication. Through the cooperation of Mrs. Vance several thousands of such documents have bean secured, making one of the most important manuscript collections ever made by the State. The publication of these papers will do more to establish the State's Confederate history beyond dispute than any collection in exist ence. But. unfortunately, this collection contains but few of Gov. Vance's own Iti-teio, must of those in the col lection being letters received by him. It is most important that the pub lication should contain as many of his own letters as possible. The Historical Commission, there fore, takes this means of requesting those who possess letters of Gov. Vance to turn them over to the Com mission, either for permanent pre servation or for copying. No letter or paper is so unimportant or trivia' but that it may have its place in such 1 collection; and, we think the per sonnel of the Historical Commission is sufficient to guarantee that no im proper use will be made of any letter or paper. The publication has the sanction of Mrs. Vance. Nor is the publication on a private enterprise undertaken for the pur pose of making money. It will be is sued by the State as other State printing, and its purpose is to per petuate the fame of North Carolina's best beloved son, to extend the rep utation of the State, and to make available for the historian the mate rial for studying her history during its greatest epoch. Any person, therefore, who posses ses a letter or other document ox Governor Vance will render a service to his memory and to the good name of the State by cooperating with the Historical Commission in this work. Due credit will be given to all who help to forward this work. All com munications should be directed to the Secretary at Raleigh. The North Carolina Historical Commission. J. Bryan Grimes, Chairman. R. D. W. Connor, Secretary. How MucnTFei tilizar Should We Use? Perhaps, on average lands, from 200 pounds to 400 pounds of commer cial fertilizers under corn, and from 400 to 600 pounds under cotton is the safest for the general farmer, but some find it profitable to use even more. For special crops, yielding large gross money returns per acre, larger quantities are generally profit able, in some instances as large as from 1,000 pounds to 3,000 pounds per acre; but these large quantities should only be used when experience or tests show that they pay.

S. C. Rev. G. T. Lumpkin. The Winston-Salem Journal of re cent date contained the following leading editorial concerning a gen tleman well known to many of our readers, and they will be pleased to know that he is esteemed so highly by the people he is now serving. The Journal says: "Of the number of young ministers in Winston-Salem, Rev. G. T. Lump kin who last Sunday ended his sec ond year as pastor of Brown Mem orial church, is the best known. And that is saying much for Mr. Lump kin, because the city is blessed in the ability and power of its young div ines. When Mr. Lumpkin was elected pastor of the Brown Memorial Bap tist church two years ago, he assum ed a responsibility difficult for one with three times his experience to fill. He rose to every occasion. He proved the right man in the right place. "During his pastorate the magnifi cent testimonial of Winstom-Salem's grand old preacher was finished. This was accomplished in great part through the resoucefulness of Mr. Lumpkin. It was he who planned and worked and it is due much to his earnestness of purpose, his tact, his personality, his Christianity leader ship that Winston-Sitlem was quick to respond to honor while yet serv ing the community one whose name is revered and whose works are well known. "Mr. Lumpkin i3 in the hearts of his congregation and is loved by all denominations. He has already shown himself a power. If he has done so well here in his short ministry, what mav one expect of him in the years to come? The only fear that his con gregation and friends could possibly have for him is that the flesh may not be strong enough to support the spirit. For Mr. Lumpkin is a hard worker. "In him the community has a bright and forceful preacher, an advisor whose counsels are good and a friend who is earnest and true. In him the community is rich." Some one has said that a sure way to save money, don't spend it. CATAARu HTLL GO. Relief in Two Kisiites, Complete Cure Soon.

Announcement of a national tuber culosis Sunday to be held on April 24th in 215,000 churches of the United States has been made by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. Following campaigns against con sumption that have been carried on in the churches of hundreds of cities, and sermons on tuberculosis that have been preached before thous ands of congregations during the past year, a movement has been started to establish a permanent tuberculosis Sunday, on which it is hoped that every one of the 33,000, 000 church-goers in the United States will hear the gospel of health. It is planned to enlist the active co operation of anti-tuberculosis organ izations, labor unions, fraternal or ganizations, and other bodies, to gether with the churches in the movement. The aid of leading churchmen in many of the principal denominations has already been of fered. All of the large interdenom inational bodies, such as the Young Men's Christian Association, the Young Women's Christian Associa tion, the King's Daughters and Sons, and the various young people's so cieties are also in sympathy with the anti-tuberculosis campaign. It is planned that on April 24th tuberculosis sermons shall be preach ed in all the churches of the country. Literature will be distributed to members of the congregations, and in every way an effort will be made to teach that tuberculosis is a dan gerous disease and that it can be prevented and cured. Clergymen who desire to obtain additional information in regard to tuberculosis will be able to secure literature from state and local anti tuberculosis associations and boards of health, as well as from the National Association. The Camden (Ala.) Register gives this sample of a write-up of a wed ding in the days of the suffragettes: "The bride looked very well in a traveling dress, but all eyes were centered upon the groom.
