IT'S UP TO SOMEBODY It is up to nonicbody to repair the ferry and terry road leading from Wtiitapaton to Bertie coun ty. We do not know whether it is the duty of Martiu county, the duty of the town of Williamston or the duty of private citiaens, but it is plain enough that it is souic- body's duty Shall Williamston fail to the business of Bertie county farmers and the tobacco warehouses of this town fail to handle the tobacco that has heretofore been coming here on account of the bad condi tion of the road aud ferry? A prominent tobacco farmer of Bertie wrote a local warehouseman a few days ago that unless soiut repair work is doue on the ferr> they, the farmers of Bertie, cannot bring their tobacco here. Every business man in Williams ton knows what it would mean to fail to keep upn tbir. ferry "A word to the wise is sufficient." Mr. Fairbanks has an opinion of his own as to the ' 'only man that can beat Bryan.'' It must lie rather provoking to peacemaker Roosevelt to see Hon duras and Guatemala getting ready to slap each other just when he is nettling down for a -peaceful suuiuici. The National Billposters assocla tiou has decided not to |>ost any more pictures of the devil, but will continue sticking up pictures ot chorus girls who have been raising the devil. It must be embarrassing to Mrs. Leslie Carter who was married the other day, at the age ol according to the marriage license record, thirty years, to have her son come along and confess to beiug twenty aix year.» old. t ~~ The Pennsylvania man who waited twelve yeais to repay cat fare advanced by a irieud, hah still too much conscience to be a success as an ice man. Next time it might be advisable for the president to send his whole cabinet down South to sit on the lid during a state convention, that North Carolina convention actual ly tilted under even Secretary Taft. A sweet breath adds to the joys of a kiss. You wouldn't want to kiss your wife, mother or sweet heart with a bad breath You can't have a sweet breath without a healthy stomach. You can't have a healthy stomach without perfect digestion. There is only one rem edy that digests what you eat and makes the breath as sweet as a rose—and that remedy is KODOL FOR DYSPEPSIA. It is a reliel for sour stomach, palpitation of the heart, and other ailments aris ing from disorder of the stomach and digestion Take a little Kodol after your meals and see what it will do for you.

It was hardly necessary for Sec t rttary Tsft to compare democratic promises with republican perfor mances.'' Nearly everybody has Bid LOSS TO FARTIERS Prof. Tail Butler, through the Progressive Farmer says The writer was recently asked the question: "By bow many bushels will the yield of corn in North Carolina be reduced by deep cultivation at laying by?" At that time we thought a million bushels would represent the loss, but in the light of the results ob tained by the various experiment stations it would seem that such an * f i estimate is conservative in the ex treme. The following summary of the results obtained by the experiment stations in testing deep and shal low cultivation is takeu from the annual report (1904; oi the United States office of experiment stations. Illinois Station—An average of I five years showed a gain for shal low over deep cultivation of 5.9 I bushels. ludiana Station—Cultivating from one to one and one-half inch es gave the Itest results and the re mits for nine years showed in fav or of shallow culture. Ohio Station —Tests between cultivatiug one and one half inches and four inches deep, continued for nine years, gave a gain of four bushels per acre. Pennsylvania Station —Corn cul tivated two inches deep gave fifty eight bushels per acre, while that ! Mom by pet*** who wmwtw. K u» cultivated lour ...cl.es deep gave i wblrfi It luUbttt h»i» glvtn M the fifty nine bushels. u»mt; ut tool futll ou ul tiu» Missouri Station- The testfi for trail five years showed a gain fot shal low cultivation of 25.2 per cent Kansas Statioft- —Tests during two years showed the yield from shallow cultivation. Oklahoma Station - With drilled corn deep cultivation gave, the l>et tei results, while with listed corn shallow cultivation proved super ior. Utah Station Tests extending over five years showed the best re suits for a medium depth of culture. Nebraska Station Results-fronl cultivating three inches deep were mticli lietter than from cultivating si* inches deep. North Dakota Station- - The re sults were in favor of shallow cul tivation taken as a whole. lowa Station - Results from two years' work showed a yield of 27.9 bushels from deep cultivation and 82.4 bushels from shallow cultiva ation, or a gain of 10.5 bushels per acre iu favor oj.shallow cultivation: New Hampshire Station Five shallow cultivations gave a yield of 79 I, while five deep cultiva tions Have 69.7, or a nam for shal low cultivation of 9.4 bushels. Georgia Station Shallow culti vation showed an average of 2.4 bushels of. shelled corn per acre more than deep cultivation. - The objection given to shallow cultivation in this State is, usually, that it is necessary to plow, and go deep, to kill grass. This difficulty can IK- partially overcome by l>et tei preparation of the the more frequent cultivation which can lie done with tools that stir the ground only to a shallow depth, especially* when the plants are young. Certainly, deep culture during the latter part of the sea son decreases the yield under usual conditions and there should be and is 110 need for it Out yield "Of thirteen bushels per acre is small enough, why make it less, as is certainly done, by the method of laying by with the plow, now practiced by thousa'nds of our small farmers? . .. .
