Some parties down in Provi dence township who believe iu the observance of law, recently noti fied the sheriff that a noted block ader, of Montgomery county, was making headquarters in Morgan township. This, therefore, was cause sufficient for our Sheriff and Deputy Krider to plan a capture at once. So, Sunday evening, they drove down to the neighbor hood, called on M. E. Hall, an old-time and latter-day blockader. This Knight of the Moonshine Still, suddenly became interested in traveling. So, with little no tice or preparation, he began a tour through a near-by swamp and meadow, and made splendid head way, while the officers of the law connived to make the trip just as interesting as possible. Just imag ine the scene: blockader acting as pathfinder, the sheriff and deputy making four corn rows at a jump, and the distance between the two parties rapidly growing Jess until the officers nab their man, bring him to Salisbury, and lock him in jail to await the next term of the Superior court. Hall is wanted in Montgomery county for blockading. Solicitor”Hamm* r was communicated with and h iusturcted the sheriff to require it justified bond of $500, which Hall has so far failed to give. Th Montgomery officials will call f< r him in a few days. The capture speaks well for our .sheriff aud it is a source of grati fication to the good people throughout the county to know that we have a man in office who is doing all in his power to enforce law and capture criminals. Witli the aid of the citizens he will be the greater able to perform the duties of his office, and without this assistance he will accomplish little.

The Best Fertilizers for Corn That the yield of corn from the average farm can he greatly in creased by intelligent and liberal fertilization has been repeatedly demonstrated. Large crops of good corn result from preparing the land well, using the right kind and quantity of fertilizer, good seed and proper cultivation. Virginia- Carolina Fertilizers will greatly “ increase your yield per acre ” of corn or any other crop. In some cases remarkable results have been obtained. Mr. C. W. Caruthers of Sumpter County, Fla., writes: “Words cannot express the value of your fertilizer. It is really so far ahead of other companies’ goods, that it would not pay anyone to use other brands, were they given free and put in the field. I can prove what I say to be a fact. I made a test on five acres. I used on one half the land your fertilizer and on the other half another company’s fertil izer, same grade; the land received the same cultivation every time. / kept a correct account of the amount of money / got off each half and I got $300 more from the land on which I used Virginia Carolina Fertilizer than I did off the other half. / got four times as much ccrn from the land on which I used your fertilizer Write today to nearer office of the Virginia-Carolina Chemical Company for a free copy of the new 1909 Farmers’ Year-Book or Almanac, full of the most valuable and unprejudiced information for planters and farmers; or ask your fertilizer dealer for a copy.

The Gurse of the South. What Is the ma‘ter with the South? According to government report-of 1908 “The Secret is out at last—the Southerner, contrary to cunent opinion is not lazy, shiftless, indifferent or careless “He is sick1’ the South is afflicted with and harbors .hat most dreaded treacherous and destructive of all diseases Anemia, Pernicious Anemia. The average Southerner is a sufferer of this health destroying parasite which destroys the red bloood cells producing an impoverished con dition of the blood ; characterized by extreme pallor, general debility, weakness, loss of vigor, lack of ambition, and general undermining of vitality. The climate and atmospheric conditions destroy the vitality. Let him get over it. Get rid of it. Get well, and he is good physically as the best American can boast. If there is health of the slightest degree in your system, “WAKE IT UP! CALL IT FORTH. PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER! MAN, WOMAN OR CHILD; all can and should be well.
