IMPROVED STOCK SALE.
DELIGHTFUL HOUSE PARTY.
Ante
Al Innovation in Pitt County.
The sale of stock at the Ingle-
Stock Fain Wednesday,
Nov. 14th. was the first sale of
the kind ever off red to the farm-
of the county.
We understand that while the
sale was very well attended, yet
the bidding on some of the
stock was rather slow
and re was not altogether
life and spirit in the sale that
was expected Taken all
however. Mr, Joyner says
that the takings were quite sat
The people of this
county arc not accustomed
sales of this kind and naturally
until there is a sentiment for
improved stock no such thing as
fancy prices will be had. Asked
if he expected to continue the
sale of stock in future.
Mr. Joyner replied that, most
assuredly he did. He said he
did not expect to realize any
profit from the sale on the 14th.
and that his only object was to
break the ice and pave the way
for the future.
At this sale the stock that was
offered consisted principally of
hogs of the China and
Berkshire breed. No improved
cattle were offered at all, but
next year it is Mr. Joyner's in-
to sell a number of young
animals of the beef producing
type. If the farmers of the
county could only contrast the
difference in the value of even
a grade animal of the beef type
with our native or scrub cattle
at months old, they would sell
all the native, and if the price of
a pure bred animal was too
much for an individual then a
community would club in and buy
one together.
The principal difference be-
tween the value of a beef type
animal and a native is in the
rapid growth to maturity of the
beef type and the larger
of dressed meat to the gross
weight. A native will dress out
only about one half of gross
weight while the other will dress
from to per cent It gen-
requires about years
which to mature a native steer
while with attention a steer of
the beef type will weigh from
to hundred at to
months

Think of It
A dearth of local news often
leads to murmurs on the part of
those who prize local gossip
above all else, and it is not all the
fault of the publisher. Any live
publisher will not fail to give all
the local news worthy of note,
therefore when the local depart-
is short you should not rail
at editor, but remember you
have committed suicide,

your neighbor, stole chickens, let

Three ways are used by farmers
for curing and preparing their to-
for the market; namely sun
air cured and flue cured.
The old and cheap way is called air
cured; the later discovery and
proved way is called flue cured.
In flue curing the tobacco is taken
from the fields and racked in barns
especially built to retain heat and
there subjected to a continuous high
temperature, produced by the direct
heat of flame heated flues, which
brings out in the tobacco that
stimulating taste and aroma that
expert roasting develops in green
coffee. These similar processes give
to both tobacco and coffee the cheer-
and stimulating quality that pop-
their use.
The quality of tobacco depends
much on the curing process and the
kind of soil that produces it, as ex-
pert tests prove that this flue cured
tobacco, grown in the famous Pied-
region, requires and takes less
sweetening than tobacco grown m
any other of the United States
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
full tobacco taste that satisfies
tobacco hunger. That's why chewers
prefer Schnapps, because Schnapps
cheers more than any other chewing
tobacco, and that's why chewers of
Schnapps pass the good thing along
makes other chewers
until the fact is established that
there are more chewers and more
pounds of tobacco chewed to the
population in states where Schnapps
tobacco is sold than there are in
those states where Schnapps has not
yet been offered to the trade.
A plug of Schnapps is more
economical than a much larger
of cheap tobacco. Sold at
per pound in cuts. Strictly
and cent plugs.
