DEMONSTRATION FARM WORK.
The killing of Senator Car-
mack, editor of the Tennessean,
by the Coopers, at Memphis,
Tuesday was the most
deplorable tragedy since the
murder of Editor of
the Columbia State. Senator
was one of the most
brilliant editors in the South
and a strong, courageous
and he will be greatly
missed by the State in which his
efforts were put forth to keep a
clean government. It is a great
pity that an editor in the South
cannot express himself through
the columns of his paper about a
public man, since a man places
himself in a position to be
when he goes into public
life, for fear he will be shot
down as some worthless cur.

The object of the farmers co-

to place an object lesson in the
various communities to illus-

prove that the average farmer
can do better work and will do
it if properly approached.
These demonstration farms
show that better and larger
crops can be raised on the aver-
age farm and at a vastly greater
net profit per acre. Incidentally
they are designed to prove that
there is no necessity for the
present wide spread
of the farms and the com-
poverty of many of our
farmers. Like all great reforms

Suggestions How to Advertise the City
and
Greenville. N. C, Nov.
Editor
While business men in this
community are talking about par-
post laws, improving and
advertising the city, I would like
to have a or two through the
columns of your paper.
Monday night at the meeting
of the Chamber of Commerce,
after the election and installation
of officers for the coming year,
etc., a very important matter
was brought up-a matter that
every public spirited citizen in
the community should take an
interest the town.
All of us know the good to be
derived from advertising, rut
how to advertise is the question
that confronts most of us.
Some people sail in and blind-
and getting poor results sour
on the method of publicity used.
Having observed a great deal
along this line and hearing the
suggestions made at the mo-ting
leads me to offer my on the
subject, thinking p they
will be of benefit to the
city and the progress
of which am very much inter-
in.
I think advertising in the
local newspaper, together with
other which will men-
the very best. The local
paper reflects what the
really is, and as a man is
sized up by bis face so is a town
Bleed up by the thrift displayed
by its business men through the
advertising columns of local
newspaper. Good, bad or
the newspaper the
town have given your
the right and unless the
business men advertise in
help make something cf their
local paper It will show their
lack of interest in one of the
most vital factors of the com-
and going out into the
world the will counteract
any other advertising they may
do. Every merchant and
man of whatever calling
should have a good, snappy ad, no
matter how small, in the paper.
It will help him immensely and
will greatly help the community.
Then the Chamber of Com-
or Board of Aldermen
should take a large space from
time to time, set forth the ad-
vantages and needs of the town
and community, keeping on hand
a number of the papers contain-
the ad to send to inquirers,
leaving the special editions of
papers in neighboring towns
alone, for they will never realize
one iota of good from them.
The combined ads in the local
paper, showing that all their
needs can be supplied, may lead
dozens of new families to move
to the town.
The suggestion to issue a book-
let is a good one. A nice one,
gotten up in good style, setting
forth the advantages and
giving a short sketch of the town,
will accomplish a great deal by
being sent out to inquirers.
After the above has been done
I would suggest, to get in-
that they take a space
in the Sunday edition of some
northern or western newspaper
or a widely read magazine from
time to time, telling what they
have to offer. Then as the an-
come send the local paper
and booklet.
In the meantime the mer-
chants and other business men
of the town and community will
getting direct results. The
results of such advertising are

D. Hunter, a Baptist minister,
committed suicide at his home
here this morning by cutting his
throat with a razor. Rev. Hunter
has been depressed for several
weeks, due to financial troubles
and no other reason can be given
for his act. He was in Mr.
store this morning settling
with a tenant and requested Mr.
Jones to straighten his accounts
out as he was in trouble and
could not. About o'clock Mr.
and Mrs. Hunter were walking
in the back yard of their home

night and this morning that he

Daughters of Confederacy Proposed to
Erect a for These.
The North Carolina Daughters
of the Confederacy have in view
an enterprise which is to provide
a home for the wives and widows j
of the heroes once wore the
who have need of
this.
An officer of the State
has written to Dr. B. F.
Dixon, the State auditor, in
to this enterprise, which
was given a start at the recent
meeting of the Daughters of the
Confederacy in Goldsboro.
The purpose of the Daughters
of the Confederacy is to raise
such a as to make it possible
to erect on the grounds of the
Confederate Soldiers Home at
Raleigh, a building that will be a
home for the aged wives and
widows of Confederate soldiers.
Dr. Dixon is greatly pleased
with the purpose to do this and
hopes that it may be carried for-
ward to success. He says that
he heartily endorses the plan,
and that he thinks a good work
will be done, that many of the
noble women who suffered and
kept the home during the war
are now in needy circumstances,
and that they should be cared for.
The entire State would endorse so
noble a work as that which is
proposed to be undertaken by the
Daughters of the Confederacy.
