Bank of Wadesboro A I R E Service AS TO MARKETING CROPS Frestdeit Altxioder, of the Farmers' Uitoi, Gives Some Good Advice Oa Mirketlflf Generally. To the Farmers of North Carolina: Whatever your money crop may be, market it slowly. It is poor business policy to force any non appreciating market The great bulk of agricultural products is non perishable if kept under shelter. Of course there is always the dan ger of fire, but we have that risk covered by insurance for a email cost. Feed the markets on short rations and you will soon see prices boosted by an increased demand. Don't let the cry of "big crops" scare you into parting with your products at a price that will not give you u fare and just reward for i your labor and the capital that yon have invested in your business. Yon don't find men in other callings disponing of products which represent a year's work and interest on the investment, at a price below cost. The fanner has often done this by following the suicidal policy of forcing on toe market in four months' time crops which must meet and supply a year's demand. Of course these crops are not to be ind will not be consumed in four months. They are bought by the "middle man" and held in storage until the demands of the market call for them at remunerative prices. We should not quarrel with the "middle man" as long as he con ducts a legitimate buying and sel ling business. We should quarrel with ourselves for not handling Our own crops for our own benefit in the same business-like way the "middle man" has been handling them for his benefit. If products were not offered for sale on the streets of our towns at whatever price they would bring, the mid dle man' would soon go out of bus iness. But as long as we follow the present method of marketing our crops, there will be a legitimate field for the "middle man,'' and in fact, he is a necessary part of this mode of marketing. In case of the cotton crop, which is the principal money crop of the South, we can well believe that a fair margin is made bv the men who stand be tween the producer and the spinner; otherwise there would not be so many "cotton buyers." -Now how arc we to get out of these "old ruts" and upon the high way of successful business like the marketing of our crops! It must be done by extending the selling period throughout the year sp that the supply will just keep pace with the demand. Also bv "bunching" our products and selling in such quantity as demanded by large buyers. This is co-operative sel ling. How is it to be done? Through the storage or warehouse plan. Go to any large cotton market town andfyou will find4the cotton buyers using the warehouse to store our cotton in to be held until demanded by the spinner. We should do this for ourselves and save the profits that new go to the men who have been doing it for us. But, you say that you have bills that are dne and that you must real ire money from your crop at once. Unfortunately this is true with a great many farmers. Too many of us are still following the old ruin, ous "credit system," which is the legitimate offspring of the "all cot ton system" and, next to its parent, is 'the agricultural interest of the South. Well, if you owe bills you should pav them when payment is demanded". But do not put all of your cotton on the market. Go to your local banker and borrow on your cotton, ust as little money as you can possibly do with. Leave this money on deposit and use a check book. Your check may pos sibly pay several bills and finally be deposited to the credit of some otner man wunout any money ueiug drawn from the bank. I mention this because I know that bankers are more 'ready to loan money if it is to be left on deposit with them. Follow this plan and economize in every way possible un til you get out of debt, and then swear that you will stay out If farmers are ever to attain their commercial independence they must raise home supplies and quit buying on credit 1 dont know a single farmer who has followed the "all cotton svstera and made a success at it Now, a few words about the cot ton crop. The cropis greatly over estimated. At the farmers' Union convention in Fort Worth, Texas, we had reports from every one of the Cotton States and according to these reports from the field it is be lieved that within thirty days we will see a: verv materai rise in tne - price.

Popular AnsonUa Merries la Rilelf ft, (News and Observer. 8th inst) A quiet home wedding was cele brated at 10.30 o'clock Tuesday morning at the residence of Mr. Julian Burton Timberlake on West Jones street, when their daughter. Miss Estelle Whitfield Timberlake became the bride of Mr. Charles Vernon Lilea, of Wadesboro. Only relalives and intimate friends were present to witness the cere mony, which was very quiet, ow ing to the extreme bereavement in the family. The parlor was beautifully dec orated with palms and ferns, the dark background of palms reach ing almost to the ceiling. The wedding vows were given by Dr. W. Mc. C. White, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. Miss Sadie Duncan played the wedding march. The ushers were Messrs. Charles McKee Newcomb, and Jul ian Burton Timberlake, Jr., neph ews of the bride. Miss Alice Bay ard Newcomb was maid was maid of honor. She wore a gown of white silk and lace, with white picture hat and carried bride's roses. Dr. N. P. Liles of Wades boro, brother of the groom, acted as best man. The bride was attir ed in a handsome dress of white radium, with duchesse lace and wore a beautiful white hat and was given away by her brother, Mr. Julian B. Timberlake. She carried a shower bouquet of lilies of the valley. The bride and groom left on the Seaboard northbound train for a trip north. On their return they will make their home at Maxton, N. C. The out of town guests here for the wedding were: Miss Julia Brewer, of Danville, Va.; Miss Amanda Clark, of Clarkton, N. C; and Mrs. C. H. Ward, of Wilmington, N. C, An informal reception was given at the residence Monday night to relatives and intimate friends, of the family. The array of handsome wedding presents attests the popularity of the couple, who have the best wishes of many friends. Noted Minister Spends Three Weeks With John D. Rockefeller (Charity ann Children) Rev. John E. White spent three weeks recently in Mr. John D. Rockefeller's home in Cleveland, Ohio. He says Mr. Rockefeller is not the brute he has been repre sented to be, but that he is a quiet, very- intelligent, unpretentious, consecrated Christian gentleman. He has too much sense to spend his money in cutting a swell like the Newport crowd, and too much religion to lead the life of dissipa tion common to the multimillion- aires. He is me superintendent of the Sunday school of the Euclid Avenue Baptist church and is loved and honored by all classes in Cleveland. If these statements make any one mad he has his life time before him to cool off in. Eloquent Tribute to Country fress One of the finest tributes to the country newspaper that has ever been rendered was contained in a address by Senator Chauncey M. Depew before the New York Press Association. Mr. Depew said: "I pay my respects to and express my admiration for the country editor. His lines are not cast in the places of the great and profit able organs of the metropolis, whose profits are reckoned often by the hundreds of thousands of dollars every year. But tke country editor lives in and is part of the commu nity. His virtue is not so much what he prints as in what he re fuses to print. He could easily destroy the peace of the communi ty by admitting to paper the scan dals and gossip of his neighbors. But he stands as a censor and guardian of public morals and 1 know of no conditions under which the public is appealed to in a certain measure where the ut terance is so free from criticism as the general tone of the country press The Conscience of '61. Washington, Oct 6. Vespasian Warner, Commissioner of Pen sions. told President Roosevelt to day of a remarkable case of strick en conscience. Some time ago the Commissioner sot a letter from a pensioner of the civil war sun-end ering his certificate and enclosing two $500 coupon bonds of the United States and a draft for $172 thereby making full restitution to the Goveenment of all money he had received on account of the certificate of pension. A special examiner was sent out to make an investigation on the theory that the soldier might be mentally irresponsible. The conscious stricken man was found to be in excellent health and of sound mind. Thereupon the account with conscience was de clared closed, and the bonds and money were covered into the mis cellaneous receipts of the Treas ury Department.

I am honored to be" the guest of & commercial association, for I recognize the importance of com merce. Commerce is the second step in material progress. First comes prodution and then exchange. Without exchange production loses its value. Those who produce need commerce, and commerce cannot exist without production. "Whenever an invention of im portance has been heralded some are ready to exclaim that it will deprive somebody of employment and sometimes the labor saving machine is condemned because it enables a few to do what it requir ed many to do in the same length of time, but the labor-saving ma chine .is rather a labor-multiplying machine. When steam displaced the craft that moved by oars, it did not decrease the number of those upon the sea. It multiplied the number of those upon the sea. Every new invention has enlarged the demand for labor as it has multiplied the efficiency of labor. I am not prepared to say that we have yet recognized the duty that society owes to bear some of the burdens that may fall temporarily on people displaced by improve ments that bring a large gain to society. But whether we have found an accurate adjustment or not there is no doubt that society has largely gained one of the great inventions that has made largely for the enlargment of commerce, that is the corporate untity. The corporation is a step in advance. It enables people to do together what people could not do alone. But with every new step in ad vance, responsibilities come. And so society accepting this corpora tion as an established fact, is pro ceeding to enact such laws as may be necessary to make the corpora tions serve the purpose for which they were created, and I am sure that the members of the association recognize that with the large power that corporate action gives restriction is necessary. "There isa difference between the corporate man and the natural man. God made man and placed him on his footstool to carry out a divine decree. Man made the corporation for a material purpose. When God made man He set a limit to his existence, so that if he was a bad man he could not be bad long, but when the corporation was created the limit on age was raised and it sometimes projects itself through generation after genera tion. "When God made man He gave to mankind a soul and warned him hat in the next world he would be held accountable tor the cieeas done in the flesh; but when man created the corporation he could not endow that corporation with a soul, so that if it escapes punish ment here it need not fear it here after, and the man-made giant has been put forth to compete with the God-made man. "I take it then that I can assume that all will recognize the neces sity of making competition between the natural man and the fictitious person sufficiently equal that the natural man may not be trodden under foot. "To my mind the worldVgreat problem today is not to solve cor rectly the questions about which my distinguisnea iriena ana dispute; these are surface indica tions of a larger problem, lhat problem is the adjustment of the rewards of society. Is there a measure of rewards? I believe there is. What is that measure ? It is the divine measure; it is- the aw that God stamped upon the world, and this law is that every citizen shall draw from society a reward proportionate to the ser vice that he renders to society." Noted Primitive Baptist Minister Honored. (Stanly Enterprise. ) Rev. Singleton Little, one of the most unique and interesting characters in the county in many respects, was made happy several days ago by the act of many friends f his here and in other parts of the county, who brought as a surprise a goodly store of provisions and a purse. Mr. Lit tle is a Primitive Baptist, and his eloquence has sounded from many pulpits in this section of the State. In warm weather, he always preached in his shirt sleeves and would mop his brows with a red bandanna kerchief. He has al ways lived the simple life, and in his declining days has drawn many friends to him. He has been a resident of Albemarle for several months past In appear ance he resembles a Koman sena tor, and, next to Vance perhaps the truest type of the Caucasian race.

Bryant in Charlotte Observer. ) The first thing of special interest that I saw at Blewett falls was the grave of Thomas Blewett who died in 1835, at the aue of three score and ten. Mr. Blewett for whom the falls were named, came to this country from England. He owned 1,100 acres up and down the Pee Dee. His residence, which was in Richmond county, was one of the finest county homes in the state. The'old house de cayed and fell years ago, and there is nothing left to mark the old site but the well. On the east bank of the river, in the sand, within 200 yards of the water is the tomb of the old Eng lishman. The grave and stones are enclosed in an iron fence, do nated by Gen. Stephen D. Lee, who married a granddaughter of Mr. Blowett. An eighth of a mile up stream is the magnificent dam being put in by the Rocking ham Power Company, which has its office on the Ansoo side. The plant at BlewettFalls, when completed, will be unique in many respects. It will supply between 30,00 and 35,00 horse-power, put ting .it in the same class with the largest single plant of the South ern Power Co., on the Catawba. The back water from the dam, which is 1,500 feet wide and 59 feet from base to top, will make a beautiful lake 1h miles long and make the river navigable 33 miles. The reservoir will cover 2,500 acres. In the course of time the Blewett Falls lake will be one of he most popular for boating and fishing in the South. It is said that it will be the largest body of resh water in the State When completed the Blewett Falls plant will have cost four and a half million dollars. At present two hundred men are at work on the dam, speedway and power house foundations. The force was reduced from fifteen hundred. Later, when the erecting of tow- ers ana tne stringing or wires De gin, the number will be increased. The panic had something to do with the reduction but not so much as an outsider might imagine. It held back the work in other ways. Foundations for the power house i mi i are being put in now. ne aam will not be closed until the race, the power house and machinery are ready. The building of lines will begin in 60 days. It is estimated that Rockingham cotton, mills will take 3,000 of the lorse-power. The remainder will be disposed of at various places within one hundred and fifty miles of the falls. Most of it will go southeast. Many new enterprizes are being planned. The recent freshet did not in i i any way injure ine permanent work done on the dam. Some machinery, which had not been placed; was washed away. The total damage was very slight. This speaks well for the construc- ure. Woman's Institute Will be Held in Wadesboro October 30th. The second annual meeting of the Anson chapter of the woman's branch of the Farmers Institute will be held Oct., 30th. Mesdames W. N. Hutt and C. L. Stevens, of Raleierh. the two strongest lec turers that were sent out by the State, will be with us on this day. An interesting program is be ing arranged for a morning, after noon and night session. There are now enrolled as mem bers 130 women from different parts of the county. We earn estly request them to be present at this meeting. The W Oman's Institute has been established for the more efficient training of women for the home. By at tending these Institutes we learn, one from another. We hope to have many new names enrolled at this meeting. We had planned to have an ex hibit of fruits, flowers, poultry and cooking and to offer prizes, but, not getting our list completed and finances arranged, this feature of our Institute will be carried out later. But if any woman has aDy seed, bulbs, canned fruit, or any thing pertaining to pantry sup plies, to exchange or sell, we shall be glad to have them on exhibit. Mrs. James G. Boylin, Uhm'n. Mrs. J. Coit Redfearn, Sec. Wherein the Wise Farmer Should te Contented. The happiest man in the land to day is the successful farmer. He sits under his own vine and fig tree, undisturbed by the madden ing noise of the great city. Banks fail, railroads go into the hands of receivers, booming towns collapse, all business stagnates. But the wise farmer can snjfp his finger at these things. He is the monarch of all he surveys on his broad acres. And the honesty of his boys and the purity of his girls , is guarded against tempta tions, and in them he is giving the country its best manhood and womanhood. The farmer is to be envied, and, if he is not contended with his lot, he is lacking in wis dom. Exchange. - ' . . ' Sunday School Department Cosduted fey Special Editor. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 18. Lesson. David's kindness to Jonathan's Son. 2 Samuel: 9: 1-13 Golden Text "And be ye kind one to another, tenderheart ed, forgiving one another. "Eph 4:32. Place. Jerusalem. Time. 1040 B. C- THE OUTLINE. David discovers Mephibosheth. Vs 1-5. David restores Mephibosheth to a place at court Vs 6-8. David makes provision for the future happiness of Mephibosheth. Vs 9-13. C0MMENTATIVE. There are other debts besides money debts it becomes you to look after. In youth perhaps you received much kindness from friends and relatives which at the time you could not repay; but now the tables are turned; you are prosperous, they or their fam ilies are needy. And these cases are apt to slip out of mind. It is not always hardheartedn-ss that makes the prosperous forget the less fortunate; it is often utter thoughtlessness. It is a strange thing that this counsel should be more needed by the rich than by the poor. Thoughtlessness re garding his neighbors is not poor man's vice. The empty house is remembered, even though it costs a sacrifice to send it a little of his own scanty supplies. Few men are so hardened as not to feel the obligation to show kindness when the obligation is brought before them. What we urge is, that no one should wait for others to bring his obligations before him. Let him think for himself; and espe cially let him cast his eye round his own horrizon, and consider whether there be not some repre sentatives of old friends or old re lations to whom kindness ought to be shown. Blaikie. That is the highest type of kind ness which is spontaneous and self-motived. It is well to be easily moved to beneficence either by the sight of need or by the appeals of others, but is best to kindle our own fire, and be our own impulse to gracious thoughts and acts. We may humbly say that human mercy the shows lik esib God's' when, in such imitation as is possibje, it springs in us, as his does in him, from the depths of our own being. He loves and is kind because he is God. So in our measure, should we aim at be coming. Maclaren. We may xiote that common sense and practical sagacity should guide our mercifulness. Kindly impulses are good, but they need cool heads to direct them, or they do more harm than good. It is useless to set lame men to work an estate, even if they get a gift of it. And it is wise not to put untried ones in positions where they may plot against their bene factor. Mercifulness does not mean rash trust in objects. They will often have to be watched very closely to keep them from going wrong- How many charitable impulses have been so unwisely worked out that they have injured their objects and disappointed their subjects. Maclaren. This lesson presents the one great subject of kindness. In the first verse we are introduced to a much needed element in bestowing favors, seeking but one person to helpand bless. There are many peo ple in the world who are willing to show kindness toward persons who thrust themselves upon their attention, but who never dream of seeking some one to help. The Christian world has largely for- gotton that Jesus came to seek and to save the lost. We feel that we have discharged our duty to the sick and needy if we assist those who come knocking at our doors; but David here set us the exaaaple of inquiring for some one to help. Dager. IN TEACHING. The lesson is a bit of personal history that has its significance because of its contrast with the habits of the times and because of the glimpse-which it gives us ofthe heart of David at the time of his highest renown and success. 1. It is worth while to go over somewhat carefully chapter 8 with its summary of the first part of David's reign for the sake of a clear view of the great things that have been accomplished and the progress that has been made. 2. David's kindness to Jona than's son has been made the oc casion of the fanciful suggestion, and 'spiritual" interpretation, and analogies which we may af- m 1 1 mm -m iora to neglect. J.ne n is to nan is about to begin the second part of the reign of David over which at once a dark shadow will fall. It is psychology as well as kindness to put between the two parts this "intimate" incident which lets us into the heart of the king. 3. Tell the story with the sense thatfDavid's conduct was unusual; link it backward to the friendship of his youth and make an estimate of the man of war and mighty king who had kept that memory green and at the zenith of his power is controlled by it Read this little paragraph thoughtfully and you will agree with it heartily. It applies to all teachers alike. "Professor Muensterberg, of Berlin, has come to this city to make a speech. .It has taken him eighteen hours to write it and he will deliver it in twelve inmates and then sail for home. He should stay here. We need him as a blessed relief from men who think twelve minutes and talk eighteen hours." Here is a point to be grappled with hooks of steel by all Bible class teachers. ILLUSTRATIVE "For Jonathan's sake." Fre quently during the summer a lady had taken a certain tram to the same point and became acquainted with the "Traveler's Aid" dea coness on duty iu the depot, the minutes of waiting for train-time were often spent in conversation together. One day she alighted from the street-car with a suit-. case and started toward the depot A little newsboy darted to her and wanted to carry her suitcase down to the waiting-room. Knowing that she had no change in her purse she refused. When he persisted, she explained. "It don't make no difference," said he, I'll carry it for you for noth ing, v and he seized the suitcase. Don't you know the deaconess down there?" adding, as the lady admitted that she did, "she's an awful nice lady;" and again the traveler assented heartily. And then she realized that he had seen her talking with the deaconess, and was carrying her valise, not for her, but for a love of the dea coness which overflowed on to the deaconess' friends. "Getting Even" Many years before, when Jonathan and David seemed to be great friends, Jona than had the chance to prove his friendship, and did so at great personal sacrifice. Friendship is pretty sure to involve self-sacrifice. Now David's turn has come, and he does all possible to show that his friendship was as true as Jonathan's. But that is not always the way we take to get even. When you hear something like "give as good as you get" or, "I'll , pay . you back" or, "I'll get even with him yet," from a boy or girl or a man or woman, you feel pretty sure they mean to do something as bad as the other one did, or a little forse. Which is -the better this way, or David's? A kindness reoaid. Here is a story which is well worth the repe- etition as condensed by Tarbell from Alice L. Lee: A woman was cook in a miner's " camp. She had made it a point to do a special deed of kindness for some one every Easter Day for twenty years. She called this her Christmas deed. At th mining camp the told a reckless young man who was her assistant cook how she was led to make'thirgift. ; One Easter time her husband had been thrown from his horse on the Kansas prairie, and would have died there with his broken limb had it not been for a family by the name of Hollandbecker who hap pened to come across him. t!They were good to him, as good as good as could be," she said. "They had to stop and camp out ten days, he was that bad off, and they sent 200 miles for a doctor. Mis' 'Hollandbecker let her hus band and two young ones take care of themselves mostly, while she took care of him. When he came home I'd saved $50 keeping board ers, so I sent it to her for bein' so good as to save Lem. She sent it right back with that letter. Read it to me again, Joe. I never get tired of it." And Joe read with a husky voice: "It was merely my Christ-deed for Easter Day. Will you pass it on in spirit each Easter ?v lou can tell by what she says that they're rich and don't want for.anything,"said the woman, but I've never got over wanting to do something nice for her." Wh5n Easter came the assistant cook was missing, and the doer of the Christ-deeds feared that he had gone off with some wild cobs panions till a miner brought her this message: Say, Mis' Staples, Joe ain't gone an a booze. He hain't been home in years folks hadn't no idea where he was and he struck the home trail yesterday. Said he'd reach his mother tonight. Wanted me to tell you his name's Hollandbecker and his mother'd sure think you'd paid back her Christ-deed whatever that means!" Why Colds are Dangerous Because you have contracted ordinary colds and recover from them without treatment of any kind do not for moment imagine that colds are not dangerous. Everyone knows that pneu monia and chronic catarrh have their orgin in a common cold. Consumption is not caused by a cold but the cold prepares the system for the . reception and development of the germs that would not otherwise have found lodg ment It is the same with all infect ious diseases. Diptheria, scarlet fever, measles and whooping cough are mucn more likely to be contracted when the child has a cold. You will see from this that more real danger lurks in a cold than in any other of the common ailments. The easiest and quickest way to cure a cold is to take Chamber lain's Cough Remedy. The many re markable cures effected by this prepar ation have made it a staple article of trade over a large part of the world. For sale by T. R. Tomlinson.
