JOINT MEETING CHAMBER OF COM- AND B. OF T. Large Attendance and Much Interest Several Important Matter. Another Joint Meeting Fri Night The Tobacco Board of Trade and the Chamber of Commerce met in joint session in the court house, Friday night at o'clock. D. J. Whichard, president of the Chamber of Commerce and R. O. president of the co Board of Trade, presided over the meeting. H. B. Smith was requested to act as secretary, in the absence of the regular secretary of the All of the members of the of tobacconists were present except one, and the attendance of the members of the Chamber of Commerce was very gratify- it being far better than it has been at any meeting in quite a while- In calling the meeting order President Whichard express.-d his gratification at having the members of the Tobacco Board of Trade present. He stated that the meeting was held in the interest and welfare of the com- and all who were pres- should free to suggest any measures that were for growth and improvement. Mr. concurred in the re marks of Mr. Whichard. He that at the request of the Chamber of Commerce he had called the members of the co board of Trade that they might join with the chamber in its efforts for measures of in- Mr. Whichard stated that the committee, composed of Mr Jeff Mr. Person and himself, went before the of County Commissioners at their last meet- and urged the acceptance the proposal of Hon. Jno. H. Small to have an expert road builder in the employ of the Federal government to construct a mile of good road somewhere in the county, and that the com- missioners suggested old plank road. The commissioners accepted the proposal, and the mile of road will be built west of Greenville at an early date. The president also stated that a com- had also gone before the Board of Aldermen requesting the improvement of Ninth street in the same way as the road. Alderman Flanagan stated to the meeting that owing to shortage in funds just now the aldermen are unable to do much in the streets, but that very likely Ninth street will be proved if the Norfolk South- railway will agree to haul the clay. The bridge being constructed across Tar river was discussed very freely by a number of the members of both organizations. All of deplored slow, unsatisfactory progress being made toward its completion. The tone of some of the speeches did not indicate the best of feeling in the matter. It was said that the town, especially the to- interests, bad suffered to the extent of of and that the people living on the north side of the river were being put to great and loss on account of not hawing access to Greenville. After many motions had been made and as many amendments offered, each being discussed in a lively manner, a committee composed of F. M. Wooten, chairman and H. L. Carr and J. F. was thoroughly the cause of poor progress being made. he committee was empowered to visit any and all persons who are in any way connected with the construction of the bridge, f urn materials, and pub- their report; they were also asKed to announce in the local paper the date of the probable completion of the bridge, the people on the north side of the river may know what to de- pend upon as to being able to reach Greenville A motion was also offered and adopted that two bodies should meet again next Friday night to receive the report of the and take further action if it be necessary. Dr. Laughinghouse was called upon to offer the assembly the suggestions which he made last Monday night in reference to the Chamber of Commerce, its to the town, The doctor did not mince words in his arraignment of the merchant; here. He said that he saw in the assembly lawyers, doctors, farmers, tobacconists, teachers, and a very small number of merchants. In fact, in his ion, but for the regular attend- of one or two, the mer- chants could an alibi, so far as the meetings of the were concerned. He said the chief object of, the organization is to secure r migrants, to bring about growth i and enlargement, and these things no one profits any more than the merchants; that in his opinion it is high time for them to work up and change their ways doing. At the conclusion of his speech. Dr. Laughinghouse was heartily cheered. Dr. James said that he en- most heartily what Dr. Laughinghouse had said; that TUCKER, WHITE AND MOORE NOMINATED By the Second Primary Held on day.

The organization has accomplished much for the town, and with the injection of alert and progressiveness on the part of the business men, many can be brought to up. A disinterested on-looker was heard to say, merchant has lost a great opportunity; if this town is what I think it is, if some merchant were here now to make a live speech, however short, he would make u goodly number of dollars in increased trade. Opportunities of this kind don't go begging in my After some discussion a motion was adopted putting the chamber on a salary basis; all necessary postage and stationary be furnished. Ex-Gov. T. J. Jarvis made a very timely address urging more co-operation in Greenville's ad The meeting was a and the members who were present were very much gratified over the results. If the business men would take time to attend all the meetings they would only profit by doing so. Greenville is large enough for its citizens to see that the time has come to look at the town as an institution, not as a cross roads place where one can live and work f self all the time. A good, broad, public- spirited citizenship must come into existence here if the town is ever to be anything. It is utterly incomprehensible why, in the face of this fact, all mer. who have made their abiding place here will not take time to develop the institution, and make it progressive and and I create inducements and so growth may be . my desire to promote the inter- work together, think together people, I have and strive for Greenville's better- able the U S. depart- the town's growth is the depart agriculture to detail Marriage Licenses.

Meet- like the one proposed are helpful to and much good should come from this gathering of business men. Both of these organizations have already accomplished much for both the town county, but there is yet more that can lit done and ought to be done in this direction. Let no one have an excuse for not being present. Massachusetts has lynched another and former United States Senator W. V. Sullivan led the mob the com- the deed. The senator did not try to conceal that part he took in the affair and said of I led the mob and am proud of it. I did all that I could to see that the man was lynched.

Williams, of the North Carolina experiment station, in a bulletin issued to the farmers of the state on seed corn for large practice of selecting seed corn from the barn late in the springs costs the farmers of North Carolina in decreased yields of shelled com, an amount equal to more than live million dollars annually. Just so long as this method is followed, just so long will the corn-growers of the state lack this amount of producing what they might with the same treatment under conditions were they to use better methods in the selection of their seed for planting poses. One day spent in the field selecting seed corn properly will pay better in increased yields than most any labor per- formed during the entire year. are many ways in which this work might be done satisfactorily under local con- and practices. Economy of performance of the operation is always to be looked after, but not at a sacrifice of efficiency. Where corn is gathered from stalks in the field in the usual way, a good method for the corn grower to use is to sling a cot- ton-picking bag over his should- or take a basket in the hand and go through and make the selections from the field of corn which he has that is a little above the average in Take two rows at a time and select seed from those stalks which have two well-developed ears per stalk, remembering that in the selection of seed one should select from the stalks that will yield the largest amount of shelled corn per stalk. The reason why it is advised from two-earned stalks is because in testing and studying The in Good Roads. The office of public roads in the Federal department of culture recently issued a tin showing what bad roads cost the farmers of the county. It tells the farmers that on the improved roads of this country, includes almost almost all of them, it cost them on the average cents a mile for every ton of produce which they haul. The English and French farmers using the hard, smooth roads of those countries pay only to a mile for the same work The difference in cost, which the farmers of this county had to meet for moving the harvest of 1905-6, amounted to Our farmers, therefore, get less for a single harvest than they would have received if the roads of this country were improved to the stand- ard of good public highways.
