? THAT, Day & ?DDRESSJTOJPEOPLE Governor of North Carolina ls Trying to Suppress Lynching SAYS LAW MUST BE RESPECTED Chief Executive of the State Calls Up on Good Citizens to Uphold the Strong Arm of the Law and Writes Specific Instructions to Sheriffs and National Guard Officers-Expresses Confidence in Officers, Press and People. Raleigh, N. C., Special-Hon R. B. Glenn Governor of North Carolina, has taken a vigorous stand to put down the mob spirit in his State. To this end he has just issued the following: f,To the People of North Carolina, Greeting: TJp until a few weeks ago and for 'four- years, our State was blessed with law and order and peace and plenty reigned. Now, a few lawless men, in three instances, have taken the law into their own hands and by violence and with strong hands have overthrown the law, and wilfully and deliberately committed murder by lynching persons confined iu jail, lu none of these instances was there the slightest excuse for these acts, for in all cases special terms have been or dered and in one case the eourt was aotually sitting and trying the pris oners. Such acts breed contempt of law, bringing the courts into dire pute, and put a blot on the good name of the State. To stop these disgrace fid occurrences and to protect all prisoners, no matter who they are, I have issued the following order to all the sheriffs of. the State, aud to those in command of the State troops: To the Sheriff of - county, North Carolina: In the future, whenever a 113* crime ls committed im your county, use ey? erymeans in your power to arrest the offenders and bring.them to trial. Af ter their arrest and confinement in your jail, if you hear of any threats or rumors of violence, yon will at once notify me, giving all facts, to the end that! may take such steps as to me seem expedient. I also hereby direct you to notify the^captain .of the nearest military company of* said rumor and order him to be in readi-. "nc-s'to-'aid you in ease-of need. You also have the power to summon and arm all citizens as a posse comitatus. If, after this, violence'is attempted. I hereby command you- to order out the military company and the posse and have them armed ami ready for duty. You will then make proclama tion aud order all crowds- about your jail or attempting .to seize your pris oners to at once disperse - telling them if they refuse you will use force and their injury will be on their own heads. Use every peaceful means in your power to disperse the crowds, ' without using force, but if they still refuse to leave, and continue theil threats and unlawful acts, use force sufficient- to disperse them, even if kitting be, necessary. You will like wise arrest and put in jail all such persons engaged in said mob to the end that they may bc prosecuted and punished according to law. 1 have confidence in the iutergrity of the civil officers aud .count on their co op?ration with me in suppressing all crime. Herein fail not but obey this or Nder. t R.B.GLENN, Governor. To Captain -, Company -y North Carolina National Guard: ^Sir: Hereafter in ease at any time you hear of au attrnpt at violence by mob law. you are hereby com manded to report the facts to me, and also notify the sheriff of the county where the violence is threat ened, of your readiness to tender him your services. In the event you are ordered out by the sheriff, you are hereby commanded to obey his law ful orders. Attempt no violence as long as there is a chance to enforce order peacefully. If ihe sheriff, af ter ordering the crowd to disperse^ aud they refuse, orders you to fire, do so. Arest al lthe mob you can and deliver them to the sheriff, and continue to guard and protect the jail nutil you are relieved. Do nothing rash, but in every way possible aid the civil authorities in suppressing mob law. I have confidence in the willingness and ability of thc military to carry out this order. This is a gen eral order, in force now and hereaf ter until countermanded, and of it you will take notice and act accord ingly. R. B. GLENN, Governor and Comander in Chief. Thc. above orders show, my desire to preserve law and to protect the State, but even these efforts will be futile unless all good citizens of the State will aid in them. i Law-abiding people should keep out of the mob, render it no assistance or sympathy directly or indirectly, usc every ef fort in their power to get it to dis perse and should willingly help the officers in the discharge of their duty.'

There is, there fore, no need of lynch law, and if the courts and juries fail to do their full duty and this is niade known through proper channels every re source will be adopted to punish the guilty parties, for. thus degrading jus tice. Our judges are honest andlrue aud .speedy trials wil be oiidered^ and therefore there can be no shadow of excuse for the people taking' the. law into their own hands, and-when .they do, they become themselves daw breakt-rs. put themselves without the pale of legal protection aiid must be dealt with as a mob and suppressed by use of needed .force, even though carried to the utmost extent. \ The newspapers with their means of hearing and dissinating the jiews can greatly aid in warning of danger, thus repressing crime. I ask of the papers of the State, daily and week ly, to publish this address and to write strong editorials calling on their people to assist in maintaining T the law. I have confidence in the people and the press, the officials, both*;civil and military, and therefore call on them to help me in my_ efforts to maintain peace and quiet ?nd forever to prevent such disgraceful scones as we have just pased: through scenes which reflect on lour people, giving us the name o xalw-bre?kers. which the overwhelming majority of the people don ot deserve, anft in juring our good State iu every spense, raateriallv, educationally and moral ly. Living in Raleigh, often far from the scene of trouble, I can only act through agents, and in person when I can arrive on the scene, so again I call ou all good citizens, civil and military, who love their tSate, who de sire lo protect its fair name, to give me both their physical and moral sup port, and if mortal man. can accom plish such au end. 1 shall aud will enforce the law and protect all citi zens. .

Good Colors 3"or Houses. It is not gsnarally. known-not even among painters-why certain tinte and col?r3 wea:- much hatter than others -ca hoases, aud the knowledge of just what tints are best to use is, therefore, rather hazy. One writer on paint, in a recent book, says that experiments seem to show that those colors which resist or turn hack the heat rays of tho sun will protect a house better than those which allow thefce rays to pass through the Aim. Thus red is a good color becnuse it turns back, or reflects, the" red rays?, and the red rays are the hot rays. lu general, therefore, the warm tones are good and the cold tones are poor, so far as wear is concerned. In chooaiug the color of paint for your house, select reds, browns, grays and olives which, considering the various tones these tints will produce, will give a wide rauge from Which to choose. Avoid the harsh lints, such as cold yellows (like-?

'Don't say 'am, son; say 'am.' " 'I did say 'am,' the lad protested, in an injured tone. " 'You said 'am!' cried the father, fierceiy. "Am's what it should be. 'Am, not 'am.' "In the midst of the controversy the farmer's wife turned to me with a lit tle deprecatory smile. " 'They both tbiuk they're saying 'am!.' she said." Home-made crosses fit like home made clothes.

Postum Food Coffee has proven a means, in thou sands of cases, pf clearing up bad complexions. A Washn. young lady tells her ex perience: "All of us-father, mother, sister and brother-had used tea and cof fee for many years until finally we all had stomach troubles more or leas. "We were all sallow and troubled with pimples,. breath bad, disagree able taste in the mouth, and all of us simply so many bundles of nerves. "We didn't realize that coffee was the cause of the trouble until one day we ran out of coffee and went to borrow some from a neighbor. She gave us some Postum and told us to try that. , "Although we started to make lt we all felt sure we would be sick if we missed our strong coffee, but we were forced to try Postum and were surprised to find it delicious. "We read the statements on the pkg., got more and in a month and a half you wouldn't have known us. We were all able to digest our food without any trouble, each one's skin became clear, tongues cleaned off and nerves in fine condition. We never U3e anything now but Postum. There is nothing like it." Name giv en by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book, "The Road to Wei'vi lie." "There's a rea Bou." Food For Young Hogs. Cuy E. Mitchell tells American Cul tivator readers that it would be diffi cult to find a better food for youne hcjs and shoats than two parts (by weight) of wheat, two parts of corn and one of shorts; or :i ration perhaps of equal weights of wheat, corn and shorts. Corn For Silage, Experiments at the Massachusetts experiment station as to the suitable ness of various corns for the silo con vince Prof. Lindsey that Northern farmers will do well to stick to those varieties that will mature not later than September 10 to 15. He a}so re minds farmers that silage made from miniature corn has less nutritive value than that obtained from mature plants. Lazy Fowl6 Do Not Pay. A lazy fowl is not profitable, and one way to make the birds lazy is to overfeed them. Overfeeding leads to many vices, and some diseases occur mostly where the birds have been pam pered. The blood of birds is warmer than that of animals, and as soon as they are overfed they take on fat very readily, the result being that they die from vertigo, or become subject to liver disease, especially fatty degen eration. The feeding should be so as to keep the hens at work by scratch ing, and if a few grains of. wheat or corn are buried in the ground in litter the hens will industriously work for them, an excellent plan being to scat ter millet seed in litter, or even on the surface of the ground. The ' object should be to feed less concentrated food and make potatoes, grass and oth er bulky material serve the purpose, as the hens prefer food which contains all the elements necessary for promot ing laying. Lean meat, blood and ani mal meal are valuable additions to the grain and bulky foods. Planting Strawberries R. M. Kellogg cuts back the roots ot strawberry plants fully one-half-even more when the plants are dormant, his experiments favoring the plan as against leaving them as received from the nursery, his theory, result ing from practice, being that wounds of the cut back roots callous at once and numerous little feeders start at once, which develop a much larger root system, whirh in turn builds a larger crown, the net result being a heavier foliage and more abundant yield of fruit. The cultivator is pressed into service at once the plants are set to overcome the waste of moisture result ing from the tread of the planter. He finds the 12-tool implement better adapted to his use. If you would se cure the highest possible results, says Mr. Kellogg, "cultivation should be repeated weekly throughout the sea son. And don't forget the hoe. All the crusts should be broken close up to the roots of the plants. This prevents weed seed from germinating, conserves moisture and- admits air to the bac terial germs. The best time to kill a weed is before it gets started, and the hoe is the most effective tool with which to accomplish it." After the Tants receive one or two cultivations and hoeings, they will start blooming. The blooms should be picked off at once. ' " ' . Eggs For Hatching. Good, hatchable eggs are necessarily the foundation of every successful hatch. Good breeding stock is just as certainly the foundation for the se curing of good eggs. Degenerate, pam pered, unthrifty stock can't be reason ably expected to produce many hatch able eggs. Neither can hens that have to roost in trees, on fences, or in a shabby house. A poor hen house is as bad as no house at all. Don't expect many eggs nor a high percentage of fertility if your hens are housed in a building through which the wind can blow, or which gets cold so that the fowls' combs and wattles freeze on cold nights. Eggs may be very care fully incubated, but there will be dead chicks in the shell if the parent stock wah lacking in vigor and vitality. When weak germs do hatch they make weak chicks that die in a week or two. Eggs should be set as soon as possible after being laid, but strong germs may be held for three or four weeks if turned frequently and kept at a temperature of from 50 to 70 degrees. Eggs intend ed for incubation that are laid during cold weather should be gathered while still warm if possible, or at the longest, before they have become chilled. A good plan is to keep a basketful of bran or oats In a warm room and take it to the hen house when the eggs are gathered. The fresh-laid eggs are placed in this material and so protected from the cold while being conveyed to the house. Wash all dirty eggs before setting. Discard all ill-shaped and all very large and very small eggs; also those having chalky shells, as they are too porus and not properly finish ed.-The Epitomist. Apple Trees in Dynamite Holes. We have been setting out an apple orchard of about eight acres, using baldwins and greenings forty feet apart, and Wagener, wealthy and Duchess as fillers, twenty feet apart. The ground was formerly mowing land, but the old man from whom we bought the farm had so much land that it rather ran away from him, and there were, quite a good many alders, birches and hard-backs on the piece. These we had cut and burned. We expect to cultivate close around the trees with plenty pf fertilizer for two or three years; then follow the Hitch ings plan. We wanted good holes and three of us dug eighty holes the first day, but the roots and stubble made slow work and the holes were not sat isfactory, so we tried digging by pow der, and found it satisfactory, as il dug a much better hole and did it cheaper. Dynamite was the power and it makes digging sport, rather than hard, tiresome labor, as it was before. Wc experimented with vaiy ing quantity and degrees and found that one-fourth of a stick of fifty and sixty percent, that is B and C grade, gave best results. The cartridges weigh one-half to three-fourths pound, and it costs twenty to twenty-five cents per pound, so that covering cost of cap and fuse the holes did not cost over five cents apiece. We inserte.i tho crowbar about fourteen inches and into this hole we put the one-fourth cartridge with cap and about eighteen inches of fuse. Thea, with the heel, kick the dirt tight at top of crowbar hole, and it Ss ready to light. One man can easily prepare, load and fire twen ty holes in an hour. If the ground is very wet* the dirt will be scattered far and wide, but with the ground in fair condition you will loosen the earth for from three to five feet in diameter and one or two feet in depth, making a perfect bed for the roots to grow in, ami making the setting a much easier job than the hole t'.ug in the ordinary way. Some people are afraid of the stuff, hut we have used it for several years for blowing rocks. We are care ful in handling it, and believe anyone who is not naturally careless can soon learn to handle it with comparatively perfect safety. If you are afraid of it there is usually some one in the neigh borhood who understands it and will use it, but such men are rather prodi gal in using it, and we find we can do as good work ourselves and save lots of dynamite.-Rural New Yorker. Raising Alfalfa. I wish to make an alfalfa sugges tion and give a few hints. There is an impression that alfalfa is slow to start, and that it is difficult to grow it. I have raised alfalfa for ten years, and I find it the fastest grower of any of the clovers, and the most hardy. Of course, if it is sown on "foul" ground, the weeds may shade it, and rob it of needed moisture, and it may be a failure. The suggestion that I wish to make is that your readers try alfalfa on bluegrass sod ground. Don't be afraid to plow up the best Kentucky bluegrass you have to sow alfalfa. It will pay you. It will only temporarily check your bluegrass from growing; and, you will soon have a full crop of both bluegrass and alfalfa, on the same ground, at the same time. Plow the sod without a jointer, so the blue grass will come up between the fur row slices. Harrow the ground thor oughly, after rolling. Sow twenty pounds best . alfalfa seed per acre. Don't buy cheap seed, buckhorn or dodder in it, or you will have trouble. Harrow to cover the seed. If crust forms after the seed has ger minated, (or before, for that matter), roll to break the crust and to conserve moisture. By the time alfalfa has started well, you will notice the blue grass, and you will soon have the best pasture in ?.he v/orld. Alfalfa is a deep feeder as well as a feeder on nit rogen of the air. Bluegrass is a sur face feeder, and they seem to help each other. This mixture makes good hay too, if cut early before bluegrass rip ens. About nine times in ten alfalfa growers are apt to think their alfalfa is too thin, and they plow it up be fore it has a chance to show what it can do. Some also think It is "froz en out" and that it will not pay to let it stand. I would say don't be In a hurry to plow up thin alfalfa. The alfalfa, plants require plenty of room to do their best. If you have one plant on every square foot your alfalfa is too thick. If the plants are two foot apart don't be discouraged, but after "one year old disk thoroughly using three or four horses and have a steel frame spike tooth harrow attached to disk to smooth and pulverize the soil. The teeth of harrow should be slanted backward. This cultivation will kill weeds and will make the alfalfa grow, until you can notice the ground be fore harvest time. Alfalfa that ia raised out of the ground three or four inches by frost will grow if the spring is at all favorable, so do not be in a hurry about plowing up alfalfa.-J. N. S., in the Indiana Farmer. Farm Notes. A good, properly kept cow stable has no offensive odor. Land plaster should be used freely in the stables to absorb odors. Use small tin pails or buckets for the calves and wash and scald the pails daily. Are you feeding a cheese cow trying to get butter? Use your scales and Babcock test and find out for sure. Tree roots extend as far as the limbs extend and sometimes further, on this accounc manure should be scattered broadcast. Any attempt to grow something that is not well adapted to the soil in creases the cost of production and les sens- the profit. More calves die from scours caused by drinking from filthy pails where a.i sorts of germs multiply than from any other cause. Nothing can be more essential to successful farm life than having a variety and abundance of good food at all times. Poultry will help out great ly in this respect by furnishing eggs and meat. A noted English poultry raiser is the authority for the statement that fifty chickens can be kept on one acre of land without detriment to ordinary crops that would not be injured by scratching. The greater the variety of good grasses in the pasture, the better for the thrift of the stock that feeds there. An especial advantage with mixed grasses is that you give a longer sea son of pasture. Eggs are like milk in that they can be psed in a large number of ways. They are good alone or used in making other dishes and are highly nutritious. The amount of nutriment they supply is not appreciated sufficiently. In order to grow small fruits suc cessfully, it is essential to have a fer tile soil. There is little danger of Its being too rich. Secure healthy and vigorous plants. Be careful not to allow the roots to become dry in trans planting. Give clean, thorough culti vation. A Babel Club. The latest thing in London clubdom is and Polyglot Club. It has been formed to provide a common meeting place for speakers of all nationalities in <the metropolis. Temporary prem ises have been obtained at No. 436 Strand. The strange tongues to be heard at this modern Babel will in clude Esperanto. The women of Scotland carry heavy loads on their hacks in baskets, which are strapped around their waists and over their shoulders. The Art of Dining. The Delineator for September marks the initial appearance of Jean Marie Devaux as its culinary editor. M. Devaux is considered one of the greatest living authorities on mattera pertaining to culinary art and science. In his initial talk, "The Perfect Din ner," he says- "It is a long step from the absurd and vulgar dissipa tions of the table to the perfection of the delicate art of dining as it is now practiced by lovers of nice eating. Thus, what diner today would be guilty of studying bow td prolong his menu:rather than bow to perfect it, and yet the ancient gourmands fail ed to realize that this is the first rudi ment of the art of ealing.- To weary thc palate with excessive feeding is as undesirable as it is to nauseate it with improperly cooked foods. Both are responsible for indigestion." He then goes on to treat of the hors d'oeuvre, or thc first course of the Perfect Dinner. A Culinary Dictionary, giving the meaning of the terms in cooking and menu-making is one of the features of this department this will appeal strongly to housewives, and this, along with a series of "Favorite Receipts ol' Famous People." Lillian Russell. Lillian Bell, Swami Abhedau anda, the leader of the New York Vedanta Society. Serge "Witte of Rus sia, Hall Caine, Miss Margaret Wyeli erly, Miss May Irwin, and Jerome K. Jerome, each expresses his, or her, preference in cooking, and lhere is an opportunity also, for others, whether of high or low degree to do likewise in a new department called "Secrets of the Kitchen." Nothing Unusual. Two neighbors were confiding their troubles to each other over the back yard fence that separated their prem ises. "You know," said Mrs. Higgins, "that my husband is a carpenter?" "Yes." "Well, I give ycu my word that all our up-stalrs rooms are unfinished, and the roof leaks whenever It rains, and i can't get Henry to do a thing to 'em!" . "You're not any worse off than i am," said Mrs. Clingham. "You know my. husband used to be a fireman on a locomotive?" "Yes." "Well, just as true as I stand here, I always have to get up in the morn ing and make the fire. It ls so easy to find fault with the good things possessed by others. COULD NOT KEEP UP. Broken Down, Like Many Another, With Kidney Troubles. Mrs. A. Taylor, of Wharton, N. J., aays: "I had kidney trouble in its most painful and severeform, and the torture I went through now seems to have been almost .unbear able.- I had back ache, pains in the side and loins, dizzy spells and hot, feverish headaches.

"My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to bare sores come out on his face. 1 had a physician treat him, but tho sores grew worse. Then they be gan to come on bia arma, then on other part? of bia body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then 1 called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad 1 had to tie his banda in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt advised me to try Cutieura Soap and Oint ment. 1 sent to tre drug store and got a cake of the Soap and o box of the Oint ment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any tores ot any kind since. He ia nov/ strone and healthy, and 1 can sincerely say fnat onlj for your most wonderful remedies my precious child would have died from those terrible sores. Mrs. Eg bert Sheldon, R. F. D.
