A letter received from Mr. Wel born Braisford, who was stationed at Norfolk, and a member of Uncle Sam's navy, said he would leave there today for an outgoing port, which means, very likely, that he is on his way to France. Manning's third tobacco warehouse will be run this season by Messrs. Thomason and Tunnell of Wendell, N. C. These gentlemen are experienced tobacco men and are live wires.

Senn, with the assistance of the local committee, has completed the compilation of re quests for nitrate of soda for Claren don County, and all applications have been forwarded to Washington. There were 640 applications filed for a total of 1996 tons ,ranging in amounts from 400 pounds to 37 tons. Lieutenant Jake Harvin, who is sta tioned at Camp Gordon, has been pro moted to a captaincy. Jake is a na tive son of Manning, brother to Dr. W. S. and L. H. Ilarvin, and one of the finest young men we know of.
