Respectfully,

JUST GREAT.
Our artist could not possibly have
hit upon a more appropriate adjective
to use in describing our beautiful mil
linery. It is indeed "'great" except
only as regards the prices; and a good
business look through our millinery
department will force you to conclude
this is indeed the proper place to buy
a winter "hat." All our hats are
trimmed after the fashion of the new
French patterns for this fall. Polite
and competent are our patient salesladies.-

features of the show."

one on sorghum culture and manufac

terest is now being thoroughly investi
gated. The purpose is to increase
its cultivation. Dr. Battle regards it
as a very valuable crop. Improve
raeats in the quality of the syrup are
to be desired and the publications will
be useful. The cultivation of the
different staple crops from a practical
standpoint is also to be specially
treated by the state chemist's depart
ment. Political Points.

THE STATE MCSHI M.
It Is Now More Complete and
Attractive than Ever Before.
Two r three months ago the board
of agriculture decided that if it was
possible it would make an exhibit at
the " Border fair of the Carolinas," at

ticles iu the state museum. It is
found that to make this exhibit the
museum would have to lie closed llcSI
Weduesd.-iy and remain closed until
the packing of exln' its was eompleted
Therefore, as it would never do toclose
the museum during' the state fan,
when it has thousands of visitors, it i
decided not to sen, I exhibits to the
fair at Maxton. Carpets are beiu
put down in the museum and the
place is now very much more
attractive than ever before. It is the
linest, most valua: le and complete
museum south of Washington. It
ought to le visited lv all persons who
come to Raleigh .
