ARE DOING A
GREAT AND GOOD WORK
METHODIST CLASS OFFICERS.
Bluet Delightfully Entertain The
Beds.
The Methodist class with a
large attendance last Sunday morn-
elected the following officers for
the ensuing term of six

Following close on the election of
officers, the Blue team on Monday
night entertained the Reds at an ex-
banquet in the Sunday
school room of the church.
While waiting for the guests to
all arrive Mr. A. B. Ellington
some very fine selections on his
large phonograph, which were great-
enjoyed by every one. This was
followed by the meeting coming to
order with Mr. Q. E. Harris in the
chair, presiding as captain of the
Blues. Besides some excellent and
complimentary, as well as amusing,
side talks by Mr. Harris, Mr. J. B.
James, ex-president of the class, spoke
very appropriately on the
of attending to the little things
in and gave several apt illus-
that forcibly impressed his
point upon the audience. Mr. James
has made the class an excellent
dent, and although we have to release
him from these obligations, it makes
us glad to know that his good work
will still go on.
After some remarks by Mr. Harris
that made every one feel good, Mr.
Austin, the successor of Mr. James,
was called upon for a speech on
To this Mr.
Austin responded, in his usual de-
way, creating much amuse-
by his Jokes, and finally
with a tribute to the high stand-
ard of success that had been obtain-
ed by the class, and pleading that
every one co-operate with him in
making its regular attendance still
larger, and in doing a greater good
than it has ever done. Prof. Austin
is Just the man the class needs, and
by selecting such a man as
dent the class is doing much
credit.
Mr. D. M. Clark, the newly elected
vice president, was next called on
and delivered an earnest, thoughtful
address on History and
poses of the
Mr. Clark's deep interest in the
as well as the material interest
of the community, is well known and
that his speech touched responsive
chord in the hearts of his hearers,

After the speech-making was over,
delightful refreshments were served,
while Mr. Ellington's phonograph
reproduced the voices of a fine
very similar to some of those
heard in the choirs of our churches.
The banquet was a great success
and afforded the participants much

to do great things next month to

Tells of Things
Around His New Home.
Una that are not yet properly de-
the Norfolk Southern Rail-
road has set about demonstrating the
foundation facts for such belief. Early
last fall that railroad took up with
the secretary of the North Carolina
board of agriculture the of
establishing experimental farms in
various representative districts in the
eastern part of the state. The pro-
posed plan was to make these ex-
farms joint operating
propositions between the state board
of agriculture, the Norfolk Southern
and the enterprising farmers
of Eastern North Carolina.
As a result of these
the Norfolk Southern has already es-
several experimental farms,
which will begin demonstration op-
this spring. One of these
is located on the farm of J. L. De-
two miles north of Shaw-
another on the farm of S. W.
Wilkinson, at Wilkinson station,
same, and as a remuneration for ins
services he receives the entire crop
proceeds.
The Land and Industrial Depart-
of the Norfolk Southern Rail-
road will have entire supervision of
this work, lay out the plats and keep
close observation of the different
tests. Accurate records of costs and
crop yields will also be kept and pub-
in the railroad literature that
will be issued from time to time.
One condition that the railroad com-
exacts is that all these
farms must be located facing
the railroad, where they can be
seen from passing trains, and they
must also be located upon public
roads that they may serve the
pose of observation by all the people
in the local counties.
Valuable information calculations
will undoubtedly result from these
experimental farms and the Norfolk
Southern Railroad company is to be
at Wilkinson
seven miles from Belhaven; and commended for their enterprise in
on the farm of Chas. establishing of
one-half mile north of and
another on the farm of J. A. Miller,
about five miles southeast from New
Bern and near Thurman station.
They expect to establish still other
farms yet this season, and plans are
that several more will be added
the second year after these first
farms get under way.
The work taken up this first year
will mainly be the demonstration
of possibilities in growing forage
crops, and the experiments will be
the testing out of the many different
grasses and other rough feed crops.
Among these will be tests in the
Alfalfa, fall sown, and
spring sown, clover;
sapling clover and red clover; mixed
grasses and clovers; timothy;
state. They are surely the leaders
in the locating of these experimental
farms as a part of the railroad
work and it is expected
that other railroads will follow the
good example set by the Norfolk
Southern.

ville. The BUll was brought to enjoin
town from cutting down a row of
shade trees on the outer edge of the
sidewalk in widening the street.
The first question raised was that
the town did not own the easement
In or title to the sidewalk. Judge
Walker states that there was ample
evidence the street
had been dedicated to pub-
use, the sidewalk having been
paved by order of the town, etc. The
second question raised that town
had Instituted condemnation pro-
and the attempted removal
of the trees was without due process
of law. Judge Walker states,
may he regarded as settled law

It was not, therefore, necessary that

The next question was that public

A feW years ago a notable meeting
of educators was held
and at that meeting-a score of the
most distinguished men in America
made addresses. Easily, the greatest
address delivered there was by Dr.
Knapp. It was on the practical sub-
of agriculture, and its treat-

as Daniel Webster
ever brought to bear on the discussion

He discussed commonplace things in
so interesting and as thrilling as if
he was discussing some new and
wonderful discovery. It was so re-
markable a speech that the editor of
this paper requested it for
on, and printed it in this paper the
day following.
Dr. Knapp was a native of Vermont
and lived in Iowa and in Louisiana
before coming to the position as
Chief of the Demonstration work for
the Federal Government. He. there-
fore, understood the farming con-
of every section of America.
The first work he did in the south
brought him into national prom-
and made the people of Lou-
and Texas rich, was in re-
to rice culture. He enabled
the people of Texas to open large
areas to the profitable cultivation of
rice that had never before been
for agriculture purposes. From
that success and the pointing out of
the need of drainage and the practical
way of drainage it was his states-
that conceived the remark-
able work that the Depart of
Agriculture has done in the line of
demonstration. He preached diver-
Many other men have
that, but he organized and put
behind this preaching the power of
the Federal Government, and he so
impressed his views upon the
of Agriculture and others that
congress voted larger and larger
appropriations to enable Dr. Knapp
to employ practical farmers to go in-
to every county in the country and
show farmers how to improve their
methods; how to diversify their crops
raising more crops on the acre of
land, and to change agriculture from
a thing of drudgery
to a business whore hard work would
bring good returns.
It was Dr. Knapp who pointed the
way to escape and relief to Texas
farmers, when the boll weevil threat-
destruction of its cotton crop,
and the Texas people did not hesitate
to say that the farmers of that state
owe to him than to any man
who has lived in this generation. It
was true of Dr. Knapp. as it has
true of a few other wonderful men,
his great work was done in his
old age. He was over seventy before
he undertook this nation-wide work
Of farm demonstration and went to
Washington as its head, and, although
old in years, he was young in strength
In spirit. He Was much in the
He traveled much, went on
the fauns and practically showed
how to try new methods,
and he may Le said to be truly the
father of the new

credit to Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson, who has held that position
so many years that he has been quick
to farmer-statesmen such
as Dr. is, men who have
wisdom about farming, and whose
spirit of progress give a new value
to the Department of Agriculture.
Dr. Knapp had an impressive way
about him. He spoke with such
clearness and logic and force, that
he convicted those to whom he talked
His knowledge was so complete and
large, both Scientific and practical
that upon the subjects he discussed,
he left nothing to say when he had
finished. Secretary Wilson was con-
that his plan was the only one
that could put his department in
touch with every farmer. He
warmly approved it, and adopted it,
and made it the Government's plan,
so that, although Dr. Knapp has pas-
away his statesmanship
is to remain, and other men will
carry on this work of demonstration
until agriculture everywhere

Our people are awake and realize
that we must have some sort of
amusement during the hot summer

they say, must be carried out and
Greenville must be the winner.
As only homo boys are allowed to

enough to build a park, people
should do their part and assist In

Chesapeake Steamship Company, are
being fitted up for the summer's sea-
son to begin about April The
will be scheduled to make the
run from Baltimore to Norfolk in
twelve and a half hours, including
stop at Old Point Comfort. Each
vessel has staterooms, with ac-
for carrying in all as
many as passengers, besides a
crew of fifty-one. The vessels are
feet long and forty-six feet beam,
with draft when loaded of thirteen
feet three inches. Of the staterooms,
eight are main deck, eighty-one
loon deck and fifty-eight gallery deck.
Of these, six will be provided with
private bath and ten with private
shower bath, while there will be two
general bathing compartments, all
provided with hot and cold, fresh and
salt water facilities, and shower
baths are also provided for the crew.
As a distinct invention, the dining
room is on the gallery deck, with
fine view, open and airy. There is
running water in all rooms, with
good pressure maintained by auto-
pressure system. There will
be a complete telephone exchange on
board, with telephones in state-
rooms and all departments, and a
wireless outfit ready at all times to
transmit messages to the shore
so that passengers may com-
by telephone and
graph directly from their staterooms
to any point desired.

DOGS ARE TAXED .
People in Pitt County Must Pay on
Them.
The last legislature passed a law,
applying to five or six counties, Pitt
being one of them, placing a tax
on dogs. The rate is for each male
dog and for each female, the fund
derived from this tax to apply to the
public school fund of the county. So
when the people of Pitt county go
to list taxes this year they must not
overlook to give in their doge also.
It is a misdemeanor not to do so.

THE GAMES THIS YE AH
President Lynch on the Coming Base-
ball Season.
I look for the coming season to
one of the most successful that the
game has had. There is nothing very
original in that statement, tut it
shows I am an optimist as far as
the diamond is concerned. Certainly
everything points to a fulfillment of
the usual forecast. There is every
reason why the coming campaign
should break records. The country
is prosperous; so is baseball. Inter-
est in the game was stimulated by
high class play last season. Teams
that had been in the ruck, climbed
out and in their rush -to the front
played sensational ball. The
such cities were pleased. This year
these fans will turn out in even great-
numbers. Their teams, may do
even better. And in 1910 there were
clubs that fell off somewhat. It fol-
lows that the supporter; of such
teams are hi a state of uncertainty
this spring. They want to see their
favorites regain lost honors. They,
too, will have all the rust clicked off
the turnstiles within a few of
championship play. There promises
to be an element of great uncertainty
regarding the races in both the Na-
and American Leagues. Of
course this argues well for
and widespread interest from
mid April to early
J. in May Columbia.

realized instantly that this meant her
loss of rank and power-toe power
and honor riches which her selfish,
proud heart so loved. She realized
that the moment her grandson ascend-

The Resources of Panama.
A party of naturalists from the
Smithsonian institute are now en-
gaged in making a biological survey
of the Panama canal zone. This
expedition, though primarily of in-
to scientists, serves also to
call attention to the importance of
the country itself, aside from the
great canal.
The reports thus far sent in by
the explorers indicate that this
region, where Europe
planted its first town on this con-
abounds in a
wealth and variety of vegetation as
well as animal life. It is to de-
precisely the extent and dis-
of these plant and animal
families that the naturalists are at
work. Some of the streams of the
Panama country flow into the
tic and others into the Pacific ocean.
On the opposite sides of this con-
divide there now exists great
distinctions which will doubtless be
merged or completely wiped out by
the opening of the canal and by the
fresh water lake that will be formed
by the Gatun dam. It is particular-
important to science that such
distinctions be noted before they are
erased forever, since it was through
this Tory Isthmus territory that many

To Hang Train Wreckers.
The sole crime punishable by death
In the state is deliberated and
murder or the killing of-.
human being in the perpetration or
attempt to perpetuate any arson, rape
robbery of burglary. The killing of
any number of human beings by de-
throwing a moving train
off the track will not cause the man
convicted of this offense to lose his
life. The House at Harrisburg
thinks evidently this is a mistake, for
it has passed on second reading, with-
out a dissenting vote, a bill making
which results in loss
of life punishable by death.
Though the tendency of the
present day is to restrict rather than
extend the application of the death
penalty, no valid objection can be
made to including killing caused by
train wrecking in the list of homicides
for which life is to be forfeited. So
long as we have capital punishment
for murder the train wrecker
who destroys life should receive the
penalty. A grave crime can hardly
be conceived than the deliberate
wrecking of a rapidly moving train
carrying human beings. The
slaughter is usually wholesale, while
the miming and suffering caused are

It was a tribute and it was a pro-

A patient people have felt in this
disaster a sense of personal outrage.
They have grown used to hard toil
whose returns seem ever less
to measure against the bare
necessities of life. They have learn-
ed to accept with little complaint
cramped homes and the cruel fatigue
of many stairways and thronged street
cars and the lack of space for their
children's play as inevitable

But they do feel intolerably wrong-

Greenville does likewise. A bill was
passed by the last legislature giving
authority to Greenville township to
vote on the proposition of issuing
bonds for for building roads
in the township. We do not know just
when the election will be held here,

In the death of Dr. S. A. Knapp,
which occurred a few days ago in
Washington City, the agricultural de-
of the government lost one
of its most useful members. Dr.
Knapp had long been connected with
the department, and no man has
done more to advance the
interests of the country than he.
All over the South he was well known,
his work, especially in the cotton
belt, being prominent. It was under
his direction that the farmers of the
infected districts learned to combat
the boll weevil and lose their fear
of that pest.
INCREASED SCHOOL TAX LOST.
An instance has come out in which
the recent legislature only half did
a thing. A law was passed by that
body purporting to increase the pub-
school tax cents, by which
something like would have
been added to the school fund of the
state. At the same time the
failed to observe the
equation between the ad
and poll tax, increasing the
latter cents. With the purpose of
getting this oversight corrected Gov-
brought suit in the
name of the state against Auditor
Wood to compel the latter to make
the change in the poll tax. The case
was carried before Judge F. A.
Daniels who held that the increased
tax of cents unconstitutional,
because of the failure to observe the
equation. The case was appealed to
the Supreme court.
TAKES THE LEAD.

the people of Greenville themselves
get real busy to establish
enterprises here. The

their money to the channels of trade

there is an element, more or less, of
personal danger, but the man who
goes to work down in a mine
takes his life into his
hands. There are plenty of men who
will risk everything for money, even
though they could easily find em-
attended by less danger.
Judge R. B. Peebles held court in

the hour is spent profitably and all
who attend are helped.

SETTLERS.
What Every Section Wanting Them
Should he Doing.
The Star has several limes
sized the fact that in order to attract
settlers or industries
must be made. A friend in-
quires what we mean by definite prop-
We mean a proposition
which has something in has
a tangible business offer in it to be
accepted or rejected, so its
or attractiveness may strike

T Illustrate. We are inviting set-
and industrial promoters to
come to Wilmington. In the ab-
we are inviting them, but we
haven't taken the steps to send out
the invitations where they can be read
and accepted. To get down to the
we must actually publish
our in vital ions and give publicity to
the advantages and possibilities for
settlers and Industrial promoters.
That would still be indefinite, but
if we were to extend the invitation,
accompanied by the facts and
that naturally is desired, and
would at the same time offer settlers
the choice of a farm in the midst of
acres of land into farm
tracts, our proposition would be
if we should state the price, the
terms and the aid and the co-operation
that would be given to settlers. When
we offer manufacturing sites free, or
at nominal prices, and have the goods
to show when a promoter comes to
look them over, and when we state
what we can do for his Industry, how
much stock we will take in it, and
give him full Information about raw
material, transportation, etc., we will
be getting down to a definite
trial proposition.
A good illustration of a definite
proposition to settlers comes from
Florida. Three weeks ago men,
women and children, composing a
party of visited the
southern portion of Florida to look in-
to a land proposition. They
came from dozens of States, even
from the Oklahoma and
Western States, and they were at-
to Florida through
propositions and following-up cir-
concerning the drawing of ten
acre tracts of land which they could
contract to buy at for each tract.
The land was ready to be shown, the
price was known before the home-
seekers left their states and they
knew definitely what they were go-
to Florida acre
for That Is per acre, and the
lands were in the great Everglades
drainage district, where exceedingly
fertile lands were valueless till they
were drained.
After these Florida lands were ready
for settlement on definite plans, a real
estate developing company conduct-
ed an advertising and selling cam-
for a syndicated farms company
and the result was the disposal of
lots of land to thousands of
purchasers. When the date for the
sale arrived, special train brought
the purchasers to the lands, Many
them coming from beyond the Mis-
river. The purchasers were
all white people, and thus the
or Florida will be Increased.
We-i and women are the real assets
of and It Is they who make
fa mi, build the cities and do the
Lu i. n. No country will grow to
any extent on the Increase of
its population, and If we want North
Carolina to grow we will have to fol-
low the Florida plan or be
with the slow freight development
that we have been accustomed to.
When we get a move us we will
make Star.

As I think the line of co-operation
suggested by me in my last article
to you is really important to the well
being of our county, I desire to ex-
plain it more fully
Those who live in, say, Smithtown
might devote their energies to
Poland China hogs and
Island Red chickens. Those upon
the New Road might busy
with hogs and Leg-
horn chickens.
The people of and vicinity
might fancy Jersey hogs,
Angus cattle and black
chickens.

to raising, Berkshire hogs
Jersey cattle and Barred
Rock chickens and a few bronze
keys.
Up in Lewiston, Holstein cattle,
Yorkshire hogs, white
chickens and ducks might com-
mend themselves to their energetic
people.
Over the creek might prefer native
hogs, scrub cattle, a variety of chick-
ens and geese.
Each community might strive to
out-do the others, and at the county
fair put some choice animals and
fowls upon exhibition. not the
rivalry be more intense and the en-
of the visitors and the ex-
be keener and more uplift-
Don't you know if these people
could be induced to do as I have
suggested that we would soon have
one of the best county fairs in the
state, and that buyers of good stock
would be on hand to secure our best
specimens at fancy prices
Besides the community spirit,
would be developed pride in one's
surroundings would grow. The boys
and girls would take an interest in
the farm, in the school, in the church,
and I assure you that things would
move and move in the proper
I am exceedingly anxious for

utterly failed to provide the supplies
which the world's mills have required

impossible for many of the mills, par-
those in the United

The short crops of recent years
