The True Home.
This is true nature of home
it is the place of peace; the shelter,
not only from all injury, but from
all terror, doubt, and division. In
far as it is not this, it is not home;
so far as the anxieties of the
life penetrate into It, and the
minded, unknown, unloved,
or hostile society of the outer world
Is allowed by either husband or wife
to cross the threshold, it ceases to be
home; it is then only a part of that
outer world which have roofed
over, and lighted fire in. But so far
as it is a sacred place, a vestal
a temple of the hearth watched
over by gods, before whose
may come, but those
they can receive with far as
it is this, and roof and fire are types
only a nobler shade and
as of the rock in a weary land, and
light as of the in the
far it vindicates the name
and the praise, of home.
And wherever a true wife
this home is always round The
stars only may be head; the
glow-worm in the night-COld grass
may be the only fire at her feet; but
home is yet wherever she is; and for
a noble woman it stretches far
her, better than with cedar, or
painted with vermilion, shedding its
quiet light far for those who else

To all Members of the Corn
Some of you will begin to harvest
soon and written me
asking how to measure your corn.
In order to it perfectly fair
each one in the contest, we want
everyone to use the same method in
measuring his corn the
following rules mus; be used as far
as
Ask your County Superintendent
or the one in charge of the work, in
your county, to appoint two persons
to help you measure your acre and
your corn. These two poisons must
not be related to you. These two
should certify to the correctness of
your report.
The acre should measure 1900
square yards. The measurement
should begin at least inches from
a row and not just the line
of stalks Use a tape line or a meas-
stick and do not guess at tee
acre by stepping it off.
Measure the shucked ears of
corn In a box or barrel, holding not
less than three bushels. Use care in
getting in as nearly as
the same amount of corn In each
measure. Record the total number
of boxes or barrels on the entire acre.
Shell the ears from one box or
barrel and weigh the corn.
Multiply the weight of this shelled
corn by the total number of boxes
and divide this total weight by
which should give the bushel per
acre.
If you have no scales at home car-
the shelled corn to some store and
weigh.
In the case the County
noes not appoint a committee
to help you, get two of your neigh-
bats you and
to report.
if you do not the rules,
please let me know, and shall try
to explain I hem to you.

addition of a pock of vetch seed to a

Where there is no boll weevil
rye or rye and vetch may be
planted between the rows of cotton In

farmers do not have this the seed may
be sown by hand and cultivated or

GREENVILLE TOBACCO MARKET.
A news item in this paper Friday,
calling attention to the fact that it
was the of the Greenville
tobacco market, the first sale taking
place hero on the 23rd of
1891, makes The Reflector feel some
what reminiscent It was a long time
ago, yet seemingly not so long when
looked back upon, and the changes
in the intervening years have
been many and varied. The history
of the tobacco market itself has been
told before in these columns, and the
readers of the paper have been kept
informed of the progress of this, Green
greatest industry, and the de-
it brought to Greenville
and the surrounding country.
The first few years of the market
a tobacco department was conducted
regularly in The Reflector by Mr. O.
L. Joyner, and to the
of the market was largely due.
The paper recognized the tobacco
market as I he leading business of the
town, and our mite was contributed
to its. growth and development.
Through all these years we have
en freely and liberally our time and
to aid this important Industry,
and while we are not complaining in
the least, the warehouse business, with
one exception, has not placed
under any obligation to
it.
From the day of the first sale Mr.
O. L. Joyner been connected with

future of the tobacco industry in this
section, he was It strongest backer

though the business at that time was

always paid what he got. Many
others reap I reward from his work,
ho did not quit because of that.
On the contrary he Increased his
after year, ending his
means liberally and working arduous-
for the of the market.
We are going to repeat what it has
given us pleasure to say that
Mr. O. L. Joyner is the real founder
of the tobacco market here, and Green
ville and Pitt county owe a large
measure of gratitude to him. He is
doing more today for the tobacco
farmers of Eastern North Carolina
than any man engaged in the
Our friendship for him, and
his liberal advertising, does not
prompt this expression, but we say
it because it is the truth, as will be
recognized by everyone who has fol-
lowed his work since the beginning
of the market
In this connection perhaps it is not
out of place to mention a matter that
a gentleman called to our attention
a few days ago. Discussing the mat-
of tobacco warehouses and ware-
house advertising with another gen-
the latter remarked that
the columns of The Reflector were
closed to all warehouses except those
operated by the Farmers
Tobacco Company, and that none
of the others could advertise in it.
The gentleman informing us of this
said he did not believe a word of such
statement, but felt that he would
speak to us about it. Of course there
is no truth in such a statement, as any
one who has the least knowledge of
postal laws knows that a newspaper,
in order to be admitted to the
of second class mail, has to open
its columns to all legitimate
on the same basis. And any other
warehouseman knows that he can get
space in this paper at the very same
rate that the Farmers Consolidated
Tobacco Company pays for the ad-
it gets.
It is a fact that the Farmers
Tobacco Company's warehouses
arc the only ones that for some time
have advertised in The Reflector, but
the reason could be not get space if
warehouses could not get space if
they wanted it. As has been stated
before, we had faith in Mr. O. L. Joy-
and always appreciated his ear-
nest efforts to build up tho market,
and when he organized the Farmers
Consolidated Tobacco Company we
believed there WM merit in his enter-
prise, thought that it was the best
step ever taken for the tobacco farm-
and did not hesitate to say as
much. Its growth and achievements
have proven beyond argument that
this opinion of and the
were well founded.
If the real cause of the other ware-
houses not advertising In The
tor is wanted it can be given in a few
words. It well known that when
the Farmers Consolidated Tobacco
Company was organized, the other
warehouses combined In a bitter fight
But the paper has managed
to get along, and has gone right on
year after year working for the home
tobacco market in season and out of
season.
It can be truthfully raid again, that
if it was not for the Farmers
dated Tobacco Company the farmers
of Eastern Carolina would get little
or no information about crop and
market conditions of tobacco. There
is not a week that passes but this
company sends out circulars and ad-
not only to its own
stockholders, but also to other
co planters, keeping them advised as
to conditions and prices. Of course
it costs much money to do it, but it
is done in the interest of the tobacco
grower and for his benefit. Were it
not for this the growers would be
informed, and they would be an easy
prey to the and country
buyers who would gobble up their
tobacco at much less than it would
bring on the warehouse floors.
Only a few days ago we spoke to
another warehouseman about this,
and asked why he did not do some
advertising or send out something to
help inform the farmers. His reply
that he had not mailed a
nor spent the price of a postage
stamp this season in sending out in-
formation. The information goes just
the same, and it is the Farmers
Tobacco Company that

men do nothing In the way of public-
to help promote the market, b it

labor and expenditure of others.

This very clear that a
large majority the people of the

result of election every barroom

Through some misjudgment on the
part of the legislature a gap was

called near-beer, and where a

sufficient backbone to stand up for the
prohibition law, licenses are granted
for the sale of this stuff. And under
this license there are In Greenville
today perhaps more saloons than
there were formerly barrooms. There
is not a bigger farce than near-beer,
and the places open for the sale
are selling the article And
there is plenty of rumor that other

The who wanted prohibition

tired of the lax administration of the
law that permits a business of this
kind to be carried on. Among the
first acts of the next legislature should
be one to close place of thin
kind in the State.

Judges for Special Terms.
A recent tragedy in Nash county
serves to call attention at this time
to a needed reform, which, while not
necessarily immediate, should on ac-
count of the importance of the sub-
be given much thought. The
chief of police Spring Hope was
mortally wounded by a whom
he was attempting to arrest, and the
criminal has been caught and is at
present in Raleigh for safe keeping.
The citizens of Nash county are re-
ported to be anxious, for obvious
sons, the the prisoner be given
speedy trial and have petitioned Gov-
Kitchin to order a special term
of court for that purpose. The Gov-
finds, however, that there is at
resent not a single occupant of the
superior bench available for this duty
and consequently the case must wait
the regular November term of Nash
superior court.
In South Carolina and as we
in Tennessee, the judicial
machinery provides for just such a
contingency. Governor Kitchin is
limited by law in his selection of a
judge to hold a special term of court
to one of the sixteen superior court
judges, and at the present juncture
it is impossible to send one of these
to Nash county. Under similar cir-
Governor Ansel or Gov-
Patterson would promptly de-

whom he knew to be in the

term of court.
The record of the Tennessee Ex-
with regard to the judiciary of
that State tends to emphasize
which have been made to
particular method of extending court
work. Not a few lawyers and lay-
men fear that this discretionary
power would lend itself too
to abuse in the hands of a
governor to strong prejudice.
An easier and certainly quite as ex-
a solution lies in increasing
the number of superior court judges
in this state. It is widely believed
that the sixteen members of this
court are the most over-worked of
our public officials, and time would
not hang heavily upon their hands
should room be made for half dozen
additional judges. The Nash county
episode illustrates a need for some

these wonders of the as rep-

Never before in the history
of the country has such

even. Thirty nine of the railroads
representing the entire South, east of
the Mississippi, have exhibits
the resources aims

ever doubted the great wealth of the
South in resources has but to come
to the exposition to be
convinced.
Convinced of what That there is
not a country or district known to
man that can show so many,
such varied and so profitable and pro-
possibilities as can be found
in the South. And yet these years
has the great rush if and
the great travel direction of home-
seekers been to the West and North-
west. A greater mistake has never
. been made, and yet these same travel-
did not know or had not seen the
convincing proofs of these same
Southern possibilities. For this very
purpose has this vast exhibit been
assembled at
What is it though, among those ex-
at that is appeal-
the most to the people who are
looking about for a change in
The South as a whole offers
far greater inducements in the way
of low priced lands than any of the
of the west or northwest, and
that of course is of vital importance
to the investor. It enables him to
get more acres for his money, and it
is this matter of more acres that gets
close to a man when he is wanting to
buy a farm. But, the matter of more
acres is not all. Quality of these
acres is the prime question and in
fact the all important one. Next to
quantity and quality the matter of
climate and healthfulness becomes
of interest, and after that the matter
of markets and cost of transportation
for farm products are inquired after.
then have low priced acres,
quality of soil, climate, good health,
markets and transportation. Bring-
all these conditions down to home
affairs and applying them to the
lands and country existing along the
Norfolk Southern railroad, and what
do we find There is one in the list
that cannot be fulfilled, and then
some. These are the very facts that
make the exhibit of the Norfolk South
at the exposition
most talked about features there. The
exhibit of the rich black soils, as is
shown in large glass jars, together
with the mammoth corn, oats and
that are as u
likes to look it over, feel of it, stir
it over and see if it stands up to his
ideals. This is just the chance that
is given with the large jars of soil
exhibit of the Norfolk Southern at the
exposition. There is not a moment
during the day when there is not a
large gathering of farmers around
this exhibit, sampling and comment-
on the quality of a soil of such
color, quality and texture. The rep-
of the railroad who is in
attendance is asked a thousand times
a day if this sample is not just a
small special exhibit and could not
be found in any quantity worth of
mention or investigation When the
inquirer is told that thousands and
thousands of acres of the same kind
are waiting for him in Eastern North
Carolina and Southeastern Virginia,
then his interest become a
one and he is ready to
gate further. One common statement
advanced by the railroad
is those thousands of
acres of virgin soil for the trained
farmer from the west and northwest,
why need be even consider the mat-
of going to any region where he
is required to restore and rebuild fer-
of worn-out lands, or even con-
sider a locality where it is necessary
to irrigate in order to insure a crop

and product-
of a sea coast country, such
as exists along the lines of the Nor-
folk Southern, why even consider a
region subject to the extremes of

west country Better a ten months

Better a land of sunshine than

All such arguments appeal to the
man from the west who has always
lived under conditions different from
what are offered in the coast country
and who would be the first to
a change for the better. Thous-
ands of those western farmers who
are at the show are in-
in the matter of a change in
location, which would give them more
acres and a longer cropping season,
a better climate and better markets.
The representative of the Norfolk
Southern is keeping a list of these
interested people, with their names
and addresses, and it is the intent of
the industrial department of road
to keep in close touch with them after
the close of the exposition and with
the intention of having them come to
make an inspection of the coast
try lands.
Several photographs have been
ken by outside papers, showing the
mammoth corn, oats and other field
products from the, line of the Norfolk
Southern, and these photographs are
appearing in the newspapers of Col-
Ohio, St. Louis, Mo., Indiana-
polis, Ind., Chicago, and many
other parts of the country. The best
evidence of the quality of the coast
country products is the fact that no
other exhibits of farm and field have
been so illustrated and featured.
