How to Cure 1 Chronic Colds i and Bronchitis Bluevale, OnL, May 4, 1910. "I was sick for two years with a chronic cold and bronchitis and a consequent run-down condition. I received no benefit from doctors, and had to give up work. VINOL was recommended and from the sec ond bottle I commenced to improve I gained in weight and strength, my cold and bronchial trouble dis appeared, and I am at work again. I want to recommend VINOL to anyone who is in need of such a medicine."?Thomas Hkjgins. It is the combined action of t' 2 curative elements of the cods' liver > aided by the blood making and strength creating properties of tor.: iron contained in VINOL v. hi makes it so successful in curia; stubborn colds and bronchitis. VINOL is a constitutional rem edy for chronic coughs, colds, br<?? chitis and pulmonary troubles, not a palliative like cough syrups. Try a bottle of VINOL. If you don't think it helped you, we will return your money. HOOD BROS., Druggists, Smithfield, N. C. Dr. Paul Fitzgerald DENTIST SELMA, North Carolina. Offce Over Ba^nk Dr. W. B. Johnson,!

The Inauguration of Dr. William 'reston Few, the newly elected 'resident of Trinity College, at Dur 1am recently was an affair of large mportance to the educational In erestg of North Carolina and to he entire South. In response to in stations sent out by Trinity College >no hundred and fifty delegates from he. leading Universities nad Colleges )f the United States were present to lo honor to the occasion. Among iiose attending were: Dr. Harry Pratt Judson, president of the Uni versity of Chicago; A. Lawrence Low s'l, president of Harvard University; >?. W. W. Kitchin; Bishop J. C. Kilgo, and President Hamilton, of Tufts College. A host of interested I'.urant was there to witness the for mal induction of the new president and to participate in part of the exer cises of the day that in a large way marks the beginning of a new era for 'irinlty College and in at least some meausre the beginning of a new era for educational interests of the entire state. The College is very j fortunate in getting an executive | who has been for many years famil iar with the history and policy of the institution. The new president does not have to acquire an interest in the College for in his position as Professor of English he has been in : thorough sympathy with its ideals. The first thing on the programme > was the enrollment of delegates and guests which took place in the west wing of the Washington Duke Buil ding, from 9:00 to 9:30 in th^ morn ing. Next was the exercises of the presentation of the new building, from 9:30 to 10:00 A. M. The most spectacular part of the programme was the academic procession in which the professors, alumni, members of j the board of trustees .honorable del-: ?ates, and guests participated. The ceremony of induction was very im- I pressively performed by retiring Pres-t ident Kilgo, now Bishop of the Meth- I adist Episcopal Church, South. Af ter the induction Gov. W. W. Kitch in made a speech of congratulation in behalf of the Commonwealth, and President Harry Pratt Judson, of the University of Chicago, spoke in be half of the honorable delegates. The inaugural address of President Few tias attracted, much attention in edu cational circles. In his address he ?ave his conception of the place a i Southern College ought to fill and stated clearly what Trinity College Jught to undertake. A high ideal for my College is very interestingly ex pressed in the following words: "We here have no ambition to be miscall sd a university; we are not even con cerned that this shall be a "big" col ege; but we are immensely con cerned that it shall be a shining ilace where high-minded youth may catch aspirations to true character i ind genuine excellence, and whence 1 nto this vast experiment in Demo- 1 ?ratic government that is being tried >ut on the American continent, I here shall go a long succession of i nen who have been trained to think i itraight and to think through to ight conclusions, and made strong by ] he power to know the truth and the vill to live It." I At 1:00 P. M., a luncheon was ser ed to the delegates, guests and trus- t ees of the College. Chancellor Jas. I. Kirkland, of Vanderbilt University, ) vas toast master. Many brilliant af er-dinner speeches were made on i his occasion. At this luncheon per- < laps as at no other part of the p-o- i ramme one was better able to ga- , ther an idea of what this day in the history of Trinity College should mean not along to Trinity but to the cause of education In the state. All came away feeling that a new era was that day ushered in. J. M. O. MATTERS OF INTEREST. A letter recently issued from the office of Dr. Knapp, head of the de monstration work of the United States Department of Agriculture, contains some interesting suggestions with regard to a winter cover crop. He suggests the planting of cowpeas in the corn at the time of the last cultivation. After the corn is har vested in September the cowpeas should be pastured. Early in Novem ber the land should be broken deep and planted to rye, about one bush el being used to the acre. Rye Is preferable to either oats or barley In that it is hardier and is better adapted to poor soils. Where the soil Is adapted, the addition of a peck of vetch to every bushel of rye used in seeding will be found to have beneficial results. The plant ing of rye and vetch between the rows of cotton in October has shown some excellent results. Crim son clover used similarly in corn fields is a variation of the same gen eral principle which is worth con sidering. Summing up the desirability of a winter cover crop, Dr. Knapp points out that such a crop largely pre vents loss of soil fertility by wash ing and evaporating and tends to keep down the seeding of the land to foul weeds. It adds greatly to the humus which is essential to the fertility of any soil. It utilizes land which would otherwise stand idle and furnishes pasture of a very val uable type. On these grounds more attention to such crops is urged 1 and the letter concludes with the 1 unquestionably sound statement: ' "The farmer who does not try to J Bet all he can out of his land and ( yet leave it in condition to yield more | the following season has mistaken his vocation." I At the recent State fair in Ral- i: < igh ?3 boys entered corn exhibits. ' Some of these were fine and all J were good. The yields per acre were in every case beyond the av erage. With the boys leading in , this good work and the application of ' < the best methods the possibility of I the future is extremely bright for (: the corn crop of North Carolina. 1 This State can grow corn and with the assistance of the State Depart- ' ment of agriculture we will soon see ! five bushels of corn raised where ', one was raised before. A corn ' , school is to be held at the A. ft i M. in Raleigh in January and every- 1 hody is invited. When the corn < needed is raised here in the State ' and the cotton money kept at home j ?ur Old North State will become , me of the richest of the union. Work horses and mules should j tiave the best food and well balan- , "ed rations as prepared by a lead- j I ng expert are given here: > Corn, 10 pounds; oil meal, one I I pound: hay 15 pounds. i1 Another: Corn, 5 pounds; bran 5 ' founds; hay 15 pounds. And stiil another, and this is said t o be one of the best. I c Corn, 6 pounds; oats 3 pounds; f jran one pound; hay 15 pounds. |t Recently a home-made plantation a fun drawn by a gasoline engine haul- | ;d forty bales of cotton, weighing 1 >ver 22,000 pounds to the market at ,1 \merlcus, Georgia. The cotton was (1 from the (arm of Captain Council, lo cated four miles from the market, bu there was a well Improved road lead ing past the farm to Amerlcua. On the ordinary roads of Johnston Coun ty. it would have taken possibly ten or a dozen wagons with at least dou ble that number of mules to have hauled the load aud If the weather hapDened to be bad it would have re quired more. The necessity is good roads. Even the gasoline engine would have stalled if the roads were r.ot good. Agitation in favor of the graded and well built road la the need of this good day. Macadam is not always necessary. Sand-clay roads, such as can be built in any section of this county would be a great improvement over present con ditions. Every town needs organization looking forward to the improvement of conditions. To build up the town demands united action and earnest effort. A splendid commodity is "hot air" but this alone will not pro duce the desired result. The busi ness and professional men must come together and unitedly, determinedly work for the upbuilding and Improve ment of the community. It will re quire money, not necessarily a large amount, but some is needed. It will require work?lots of it. The men of affairs and finance in the East and North have their eyes on the South. They are fully aware of lta tremen dous opportunities for Investment and money is turning this way. Ev ery community should be awake to their possibility and especially is this the time to move things In this section. Hold the Right Ideals. We not only can strengthen mental weaknesses and deficiencies, but It Is perfectly possible to increase the general ability through the power of suggestion, says Orison Sweet Mar ien In "Success Magazine." Indeed, the susceptibility of all the mental (acuities to improvement, to en largement, is something remarkable. Sometimes very strong faculties are latent until especially aroused. There ire many people who pass for cow ards; who are humiliated because they have so little courage, when. If they only knew how, they could strengthen this deficient faculty wonderfully by holding the courage ous ideal; by thinking and doing the courageous deed; by carrying the thought of fearlessness; by reading ibout heroic lives; by constantly thinking the heroic thought and try ing to live it. The courage may be small in a person because it has nev er been called into sufficient exer cise. It may need only to be arous ?d. There are many people living sf mediocrity who might do great hings; might become mental giants f their dormant faculties were arous- , ?d, their general ability improved ind enlarged.
