One of the most interesting adver tisements we ever read was found in xchange coming to our desk this week. This particular advertisement has the names of fourteen citizens of the lommimity where the paper is pub lished and following each name was an amount due to a local merchant (ind that apparently was not colWt- able by the men haiit. A creditor's association had inserted the adver tisement ami offei-ed -for sale the the judgements that hadlieea secured :ainst tlie citizens. What a bombshell would be ex ploded throughout the nation if in every town judgements were secured from people who had made pur chases and who had purchases and who had refused to pay just obliga tions—and then these judgements were published in the local papers. Mniiv are going at such a rapid pace and a host of people living be yond their means chat some such a jolt may he necessary to bring men and women to a sense of their p- sponsibilities in the matter of credits and debts. Many a merchant has gone through bankruptcy because the man he has aided 'v]th credit has disregarded lionest obligations. IIow many in thUr community would be on the black list if the mer chants placed accouats in the hands of a collection agency, secured ju'dp ments and published them? Prob ably the shock would be too great for any’ community if such a plan was adopted in a wholesale manner. Tlie Tennessee 70 strain of lespede- za produced two tonsofexcellenthay per acre when planted on barley last spring in L'ha.tham Gounty. Yellow corn, ranking high in nutri tive qualities, yielded equally as well as the white varities grown in tests with ten varities in Caswell county this summer.
