tested a lively uitesost in politics. Mr.
Forthoratono argued that prohibition
was right from the standpoint of busi
ness morals and religion. Col. Sehump
ert declared that that the dispensary
law whs the best solution of tho U
quor qnostion no far as it threw
around tho venders of liquor cer
tain well known regulations. Col
onel Watson referred to his ser
vices in tho constitutional convention
where he bolieved ho made a record.
Mr. Archer made A passionate speech
directed chiefly aguiust prohibition. It
was such men as the prohibition candi
dale and tho old whiskey sellers who
made it so hard for the dispensary law.
Col. Whitman declared that Feather
stone's candidacy was an imposition.
He had studied tho Itib'e for thirty
three vears and stated that Feather
stone deliberately misquoted Spcripture
as thero was nothing thero that pro
hibits a mau from dri iking iu reason.
Gov. Kllerho said ho had boon between
two opposing factions. He hud ex
pected tho support and co-operation of
Horn# who are now opposing him.
Those men had boon misled by tho
crieft of disgruntled politicians nnd had
jolnoU with them to make his adminis
tration a failure. Iu regard to his ap
pointments tho question for each voter
was, has Fllerbe weakened tho publie
service? The other candidates promise
great things for the comuiou schools,
but the Governor had nothing to do
with thorn a? this matter wa? fixed
in the count it ution. He believed
the Prohibitions wero sincere

a very complete plant for threshing
tho wheat and ha line the stiuw direct
from tho thresher, having a capacity
of 1,000 bushels of wheat and hall lit:
lifty tons of straw | or tiny of twelve
hours.
1 1 is certainly an object lo oa for tho
South, North, Mast and West to find
such a wheat crop growing in North
Carolina, and should ho tho means of
creating a demand for land in this
healthy section of tho country from all
quarters of the I'uitod .States. If tho
wheat growers of tho Northwest can
a fiord ^to pay $;N? to $7"> per aero for
laud to produce fifteen to twonty-livo
bushels of wheat per acre, and to raiso
only ono crop per year, how much
better would it bo for those farmers to
go South, whero tho land can ho ob
tained for }-.'{ to ?10 per acre, where '
farm labor can bo had for forty and fifty
cents per day, where j^rcou foddor for
the mules can ho cut at leant nino
months in tho year, and, abovo all,
wlieio tho la.id will produce two crops
per year instead of ono.
After harvesting thi wheat ilio samo
land will grow and mature a crop of
corn, Irish or Bweot potatoes, peanuts,
or a crop of cow pea liny. Tho lanu
this big wheat crop is on will all bo
planted in cow peas, and Mr. Oliver
expect. i to harvest three to four tons of
cured cow pea hay per aero. This hav
pells for moro money than any Northern
hay brought South. ni*4,at tho present
time is bringing $IH per ton. Tho
crop of wheat will cost for fertilizer,
seed -wheat and ait preparation of lund,
sowing and harvesting, not over Sit por
acre. Tho haled straw will hiiroly bo
two and a liAlf^ons por acre, and will
bring l(rt to |t?r ton, or more than
enough to pay for tho ontiro crop, leav
ing the whoat as net profit. The cow
pea crop wll cost about $10 per aero,
as the land will ho fertilized about as
heavily as for wheat. Thu c?op should
pay a pi??IU of at laaat f.'j hti per acre,
which, added to the wheat proiit-ei #34
to $40, will make a net profit por aore
of not less than $V>, perhaps as high aa
$??"?.
The cow |>ea9 will ho harvested in
time to sow whe?t on the ?j0 acres he*
fore December l. What is being done
on these two farm* is *111191/ a rerala

" Doctor, what is free alkali?"
41 The alkali used in the manufactuie of sOap is a strong chemical
and is destructive of animal^itid vegetabl^flssue.
" Pure soap is harmless, but when Hie soap is carelessly or dis
honestly made, alkali is left in it and it is then said to be 4 free/ Soap
containing free alkali should not be used where it may do damage.
44 In the medical profession, in sickness, in surgery and in the
hospitals we use Ivory Soap because It is pure and contains no
free alkali,
44 Ivory Soap is a powerful antiseptic, it is healing to a diseased
surface and stimulating to a healthy skin."

Ono hundred and forty-three dollar*
ft |)oiind In what Ceylon tea of a err
tali) kind brought at auction In London
so rue time ago. This Is stated, says
tho HulTalo Courier, on the authority
of .1. II. <*rairo, of the Ceylon Import
ing Company, who says planters of
Ceylon wove as much surprised as you
or 1 or the next person at such fabu
lous price. Owing to certain peculiar!- I
tics a pound of that Uni probably repre
sents, approximately, one hundred and
forty-three dolors' worth of labor; but
tin- figure it fetched is so extraordinary
as to give 'the tea or the sale absolutely
no commercial value whatever. Tills
is particularly so because this tea has
no appreciably liner tiavor. It Is named
"the golden lips." The leaves, when
only twenty-four hours old, are picked
from the lop only of tea bushes. They
are very small, no! half as 1 ?i if as your
finger nail, and extra expert pickers
are required to gather them. It can tic
imagined Mutt 'throe hundred or foui
hundred people on the plantation must
pick over several acres of bushes to get
enough given one day-old tea leaves to
make a pound of tea w hen dried. < ?r
dinary tea is from leaves which arc
ten days old, and consequently very
much larger.
A contemporary asserts that a Chi
cago woman has invented a bed which
