In Memoriam?David W. Avery. David Wiley Avery, son of George Avery, Esq., of Clayton township, was born July 1, 1882, and departed this life March 8, 1909, making his stay on earth L'6 years, 8 months and 7 days. When he was about 15 years of age, he joined the'Mission ary ltaptist church, and lived a de voted and faithful member. He was a most excellent young man. As son. he was devoted and obedient; as brother, he was loving and ten der; as young man, he was univer sal favorite of old and young alike. It can be truthfully said of him that he never spoke an unkind word to father, mother, nor either of his sis ters. It is so hard to give him up. A place Is made vacant in the home that can not be filled. His father has been in feeble health for the past several months, during which time the deceased was most tender and devoted. He was an excellent young farmer. It seem ed that he had a bright future. He is survived by a father, mother, three brothers, two sisters and hosts of friends and relatives. His remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Mt. Moriah Haptlst church, funeral services being con ducted by his pastor, Rev. Mr. Hil liard. May the good Lord comfort and sustain us in this sad hour. SISTKR HETTIE. Benson, N. C. Kills Would-be Slayer. A merciless murderer is Appendi citis with many victims.

E39^J k No Land So Rich That Fertilizer Cannot Make It Better You use fertilizers for the profit you get out of them?and the better the land the more profitably a good fertilizer can be used on it. Do not imagine because land will produce a fair crop without Virgin ia-Ca rolina Fertilizers that these fertilizers cannot be profitably used on it, or that they were made only for land too poor to produce without them. If poor land will show a normal increase when fertilizer is used, good land will show at least double the increase. Use Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers to increase the quality, as well as the quantity of the crop?and you will increase the profits from your land. "I have been using your fertilizers for a number of years" says Mr. William Fraiser, of Glasburg, La., ''and/in J that it not only pays to fertilize, but to do plenty of it, and use the best fertilisers to be had, such as your brands. I have used a number of them and found them to be as recommended and to give better results than any other fertilizers that I have ever used."
