To Tobacco Farmers.
We have no desire to play th
demogogue and no desire to flatte
tobacco farmers with false hop<
from impractical schemes. We d
hope, however, to see the time whe
the Tobacco Trust will be brough
under control and some metho
oe+aKlicVio^ Ku menns nf whif*h th
farmer may be in a position to d<
mand what his tobacco is wort!
Some relief may come from the e)
pected decision of the Suprem
Court; but that is too uncertai
for us to hang our hopes on it a
this time. The one hope of su<
cess lies in the fact that th
farmers in our tobacco-growin
I territory need not depend upo:
tobacco for a crop nor upon th
. the Tobacco Trust for their monej
If the white man had never learr
ed to smoke the red man's tobacc
\ or chew the leaves, the tobaccc
growing region of Virginia an
> the Carolinas, Kentucky and Tennei
see, would nevertheless be to-da
' a prosperous agricultural sectior
t We believe the chances ar
i that these tobacco-growing district
' would be more prosperous tha:
i they are to-day. They would hav
won this prosperity by growin;
> corn, hay and stock, and other pre
1 ducts for which they are natural!

r adapted.
Now our point is, that this terri
j tory can start growing these crop
now just as well as they coul
have started with them in the be
ginning if tobacco had never bee;
' < thought of. And in addition t
i these crops they can grow tobaccc
[ which addition is a decided ad
>
. vantage.
We do not advise our farmers t
quit tobacco. Let every acre sta
. in tobacco where that crop will pa;
better than any other crop. Ther
are thousands and tens of thousand
d of acres in Virginia and adjoinin,
States, however, of which this i
not true, and it is these acres tha
y ought to be planted in corn or othe
r grain crops or put to growing hay
?_ pasture or live-stock. Most o
f our tobacco-growing section ha
e better advantages for raising liv<
0 stock than the West and most o:
e this tobacco territory has ad
3 vantages over the rest of th<
South in that it is free from cattl
e quarantine.
The thing to do is to put ever
acre of land to corn, grass or pas
ture that will pay as well in thes
L_ crops as in tobacco. The hig
price of meat offers a brilliant oj
portunity for tobacco farmers, an
g as they begin to grow stock an
l_ grain, prices for tobacco must g
j up at the same time because of th
^ shortened production.
And you can apply this methoi
this year without waiting for any
body to bust the trust.?Raleig

Carter-Jones.
e Lake City, April 9:?One of the
r prettiest weddings of the season was
?s solemnized here Tuesday evening at
o the Baptist church, when Miss Edith
n Margaret Carter became the bride
it of Mr J Frasia Jones. Promptly at
d 8 o'clock, to the strains of Mendelsie
sohn's beautiful wedding march,ren
j- dered by the skilful fingers of Miss
i. Dora Hinnant, the bridal party, prec
ceded by the ushers, Dr Alva Weaver
e and Mr S L Courtney,entered as foln
lows: Mr J Lenwood Richardson with
,t Miss Margaret McNeill of Conway;

d t. of her brother, Mr T Lide
3. Carivx, then entered and was met at
y the altar by the groom and his best
u man, Dr Clarence David Rollins.
e The words which. made them one
s | were very impressively spoken by the
n Rev H F Jones, brother of the
e groom.
g The bride wore a lovely grey cosh
tume and carried bride's roses. The
y bridesmaids were daintily gowned in
white lingerie dresses, with black
. picture hats, and carried white carg
nations. The groomsmen wore full
j evening dress. The decorations of
the church were in white and gold
n with background of ferns. The
0 bride is the youngest daughter of
Mrs Delia D Carter, of this place,
[. and is a graduate of the Memorial
Hospital Training school of Richo
mond, Va. The groom, who is the
y son of Mr J P Jones, of Mecklenburg
y county, Va, is demonstrator of anate
omy at the Medical College, Richs
mond, Va. The many presents res'
ceived attested the wide popularity
s of this young couple.

ii "One-School" DistrictsFor
several years I have urged
the forming bf "one-school" disla
tricts and the levy of a special
^ school tax. To my previous reasons
J' for advising this is added a recent
and strong one, viz: The policy of
ll the Legislature to give aid only to
those weak schools that levy a
,r special tax, and the regulation by
} the State board of education allowl~
ing aid to only one school in a dis'*
trict. I believe this plan will be
n permanent, and sincerely hope that
* our patrons in the large school disn
tricts will take steps at once looking
t towards one school district and the
i- voting of a special tax. The plan is
e simple: Outline in a petition to the
s county board of education the terri?.
tory desired in the new district(which
e should contain from 15 to 20 square
a miles), having it signed by one-third
r or more of the electors and free>
I holders in said territory, and unless
t there are special reasons against the
d forming of such a district the petition
will lw crrnnfpH Tn siifh His
(> ww~.. ?
fr tricts the State aid will be as much
e as they raise by special taxation,
but not to exceed $100.00.
