THE ENTERPRISE. iMuaanmtYniMf a« in amimu MIITIM CO. MntMONIWOteU WUUuuto*. N. C. M * aw. Mail ftUUtr. " " J"— — FRIDAY OCTOBER 13,1906. mmrngmmmmmmamm—mmmmmm & Higher Priced Cotton j. Cotton has taken a fall during the last few days but it seems to us that this cannot continue. The farmers are getting out as much cotton this season as for any sea son, but they are geetting about all there is to be gotten. The cot ton open now was July blossoms and there was a fairly good crop for that month. The August crop was lacking and when it comes to picking the second aud third time we will have the falling off Tn yield There is a short arop and the acreage was decreased, the yield then cannot be so large as present reports indicate. It would be un wise to diapooe of the crop until it is harvested and some reasonable opinion of the conditions can be ar rived at. The farmers have organ ized and they shonld make their organization effective. The crop is'short without any doubt. The present price is not a fair nor pay payiflg one, and the farmers would make a mistake to sell. You should recieve eleven cents and will do so if you are wise, and we are not otherwise,'farmers General Hoke's'Letter. Raleigh N. C Oct. 9th. 1905. Catain Wilson G. Lamb, Williamston N. C.

His speech was devoted in tin main to the exploits of the Confe* crate soldiersto the time of peact He told in growing terms of tl e heroic deeds that characterized tl e Conferate soldier when he returned from the battlefields of Virginia t his desolate and bleeding count! \ Following him from that hour > trouble and seemingly despair t the present day the speaker indeed grew eloquent. Then turning fron* the Confederate soldier to the worn anhood of the South be told of the sorrows, the bravery and the pat riotism that the women of the Southland displayed during that unhappy period.

United States Consul Halstead, at Birmingham, Eng., reports to this government that a German scientist has discovered and invent ed a machine for making alcohol from sawdust. The production of alcohol from wood is no new idea, but is a simple, practical ma chine that willl utilize the waste from saw mills is a boon.* The mountaineers of Western North Carolina,, have long held the theory that emptying saw dust into mountain streams killed the fish because the action of the wat er on the saw dust produced wood alcohol. The theory has been scoffed at, but it seems there is something in it, if the alcohol man ufacturering machine is introduced into the mountain section the saw mill men and the makei of moon shine sowpaw may find that they have something in common. As >a trade combination It would be a winner.—Charlotte Obaerver. The Atlantic Fire Insurance Company is the title of the new corporation to be organ ized in Raleigh soon. Men with money to invest nowadays regard the insurance business as one of the best places to put it.—Greens boro Telegram. Can Prove An Alibi.

Morning Tonic. Remember that charityjthicketh no evil, much less repeats it. There are two good rules which ought to be written on every heait: Never believe itiythiug bad about anybody un less you kuow it to be true; never test even that, unless it isabsolute lv necessary, and remember that God is listening while you tell it. —Henry Van Dyke. Croup is quickly relieved, and Whooping Cough wil not run its :ourse, if you use the original Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar. This Cough Syrup is different from nil ithers because it acts on the wwels. You cannot cure Croup ind Whooping Cough until you rid the system of all congestion, by working off the cold through i copious action of the bowels.

A Jitflciois iMiin A well known traveling man who visits the drug trade says he hah often heard druggists inquire of customers who asked Jpr a cough medicine, whether it was wanted for a child or for an adult, and it for a child they almost invariably recommend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The reason for this is that they know there is no danger from it and that it always cures. There is not the least danger in giving it, and for coughs, colds croup it is unsurpassed.
