Hard ing, Chicago, 111 who is Secre tary of this organization The sale will be at the Fair Grounds also known as Riverside Park, Asheyille, N. C. We have Che assurance of the Association, through Mr. Hard ing, that no cattle will be put on sale that will not be a credit to his Association, as well as to the farmer who makes the purchase. These cattle' will be ' in the States one or more days before the day of sale, and all prospect ive buyers are urged unoni to be on hand at least one day before the sale and locate the individual bull or heifer desired and make up his mind on the quality and price of the animal. Mr. R. S. Curtis and Mr. K. C. Ikeler, of West Raleigh, N. C. who have charge of the Beef Cat tle business in North Carolina will be there two or three days in advance'pf fhe sale apd-. wtU advise with farmers relative to quality and price of stock. ' No one need be alarmed about mouth and foot disease; as every animal offered for sale will carry with him a certificate of Reg istration, aud also a certificate of tuberculine test and freedom from foot and mouth trouble from the State Veternarian of North Carolina. All farmers in ' Madison who desire, to join the progressive movement in this County, should attend this sale and be among the leaders of the movement. Nothing will add as much just now to any community in the county as to bring in a pure bred bull. ' YV here a settlement has no one man able or willing to buy one, it two or more farmers join and buy one co-operatively; which will be done in many places. . He said that had The Hague Tri bunal of 1907 achieved anywhere nearly as much as its projectors had hoped, it would have pre vented the present war. . This world court,"-said Mr. Hammond, "is the first step to render possible any limitation of armament. The leaders in the creation of this court do not ex pect thereby to obviate : the pos sibiuty ol future wars any more than medical science1 can avail to eradicate disease, or that colleges can banish ignorance, or religion put a stop to wickedness.' The most that is expected is that such a court will minimize the danger of.wars. There can be no quest ion of the adequacy of the court Because of her irreproachable neutrality, her conspicuous ad vocacy of peace, her commanding position in finance, industry and commerce, her freedom from political allinances. and, almost more than all, her poly got popu lation. America is o d lined of God to tatfe-the lead id tlUs world o u r t proposition, lo is onr supreme duty, our gol.Ien oppor tunity, and let it be our cherish ed privilege. V ' ;' Mr. Hammond scouted the pleas of the armed peace people Christian nations expended ' on this armament, in time ot peace $500,400,000 a year, ha said, and a mere fraction of that sum, ac cording to experts, would put an end to tuberculosis the world. throughout Our "JITNEY" Of fer-Thls and 50 An Illustrated Lecture (By I.
