C. MT. ELI AM MATTERS. FARMERS INSTITUTES. Better Than Shingles "THOUSANDS of people buy shinnies for their roofs rather than face the prospect of painting a ready roofing every year or two.

Shingles are expensive, but they are actually cheaper during ten years than a ready roofing which needs frequent painting to keep it free from leaks. Amatite roofing costs less than hdlf as much as shingles and does not need painting either. It is easier to lay and will give years of long hard service without any care. Amatite has a real mineral surface. That's why it needs no painting.

Once laid on your roof your building has real protection. Amatite is easier to lay than ever this year. The liquid cement for the laps does not require heating before use. A three-inch smooth margin is left at the edge of the sheet so that the laps will be tight fitting and easily cemented. The large headed nails which we furnish save fussing with caps, which rust easily.

Amatite is up to date. Send for a Sample and look it over. You'll never buy any other. N. JACOBI HARDWARE COMPANY, Agents.

S. Cobb's Truck Farm at Lumber Bridge. A representative of The Robesonian visited Lumber Bridge Tuesday of last week and told, in last Thursday paper, about Mr. W. S.

Cobb's excellent truck farm at that place. Mr. J. R. Newlin, of Alamance county, writes as follows to The Progressive Farmer of a recent visit to the same farm: Messrs.

Editors: That which impressed me most in a recent trip to Robeson county, was the magnitude of the truck farming. It was my privilege, in company with my host, Mr. D. B. Humphrey, to visit the farm of Mr.

W. S. Cobb, of Lumber Bridge, I found the farm to be beautiful indeed for situation." The loca tion, equipment and everything connected with it are nearly ideal. The residence is just in the right place on a good road, surrounded by broad acres of fertile land the finest building that the writer remembers to have seen upon any farm. We i'ound the force engaged in ma nuring and preparing the land for a patch of cantaloupes, and sow ing nitrate of soda upon the oats Mr.

LvODD kindly snowed us around the farm and courteously and patiently answered my many questions. Is asked how much he would plant of each crop, amount of fertizer used.probable yield, price, etc. and give your readers the following summary: "Irish potatoes, 110 acres in rows 5 teet apart, to be planted in cotton between the rows after the potatoes have been started Fertilizers per acre, 800 pounds guano 857: yield and price, under fair conditions 3,500 bar rels at $3.50 per barrel. "Cantaloupes, 150 acres; 800 pounds guano, 8 57 crates per acre at $2.00 per crate. "Watermelons, 50 acres; 600 pounds guano, crop ex pectations, 40 car loads, $250.00 each.

"English peas, 30 acres; 600 pounds guano, 834; 2,000 baskets, $2 each. "Snap beans, 25 acres; 600 pounds guano, 857; 2,000 baskets, SI. 50 each. "Early corn, 20 acres; 600 pounds guano, 834; 1,000 crates, 2.00 each. "Cucumbers, 5 acres; 600 pounds guano, 8 57; 1,000 baskets, $1 each.

"Cotton, 150 acres; 600 pounds guano, 8 3 4, besides 150 pounds nitrate ot soda per acre; 150 bales. "Oats, 40 acres; 400 pounds guano, 8 34, nitrate of soda 100 pounds per acre; 2,000 bushels. "In adition to this he hopes to raise 1,000 bushels of corn with 50 tons of corn stover, and also 100 tons of hay think) on the melon land. "Mr. Cobb works fifteen regular hands, but in the harvest time employs anywhere from 50 to 150.

To give you an idea of the activities of their farm, I was told that in the time of the melon harvest, from two to six carloads of cantaloupes and from four to eight carloads of watermelons were shipped daily. "We found that the farmers bedded their land for corn and planted between the beds, the alleged reason for planting so low being that the corn would stand the dry weather better. Will not corn planted upon a level, well-prepared seed bed stand dry weather as well as if planted low down? "The ground was bedded with a one-horse plow for cotton and then two furrows were thrown together over the middle for the seed bed. "If it would not be presump tuous to make suggestions to the banner cotton county, I would describe an Alamance method We prepare the land by thoroughly breaking and pulverizing with two-horse plows and disc harrows. We then run off the rows, preferably with a single shovel, scattering in this furrow the manure and fertilizer.

We then reverse and set an eight-disc harrow so as to make a slight ridge. After fastening the cotton planter to the center of the harrow frame, we are ready for business. One man drives the harrow centrally over and along the ranning-off furrow, while another holds the planter. This method saves much labor, and leaves the land in fine con dition. "The writer did not meet with a single two-horse cultivator, though the land, where the stumps are removed, seems ad mirably adapted for their use, One gentleman stoutly insisted that Robeson county grass could only be kept down with the sweep.

When the two-horse cultivator is instiled in our county, the sweep makes an excellent substitute for a farm bell." A Fine Farming Country Bad Luck Getting Stands of Cotton and Tobacco A Boat Thief Fined A Loose Pony Causes Excitement. Correspondence of The Robesonian. Mr. and Mrs. I.

Mr. T. H. Beverly, son of Mrs. S.

E. Beverly, who makes her home in Lumberton with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. John T. Biggs, arrived here Monday night from Tuscaloosa, and will spend some time here.

Mr. Beverly is well-known in Lumberton and the following from The Tuscaloosa Times-Gazette of the 20th inst, will be found of interest: "Mr. T. H. Beverly, secretary of the Y.

M. C. A. at the University for the past two years, left last night for his home in North Carolina, where he will spend a little while. After this he will go to Seattle to take in the great Exposition and in the fall he will go to Harvard, where he will take the three year course in law.

Mr. Beverly is yielded from Alabama with profound re gret. The greatest pressure was brought to bear upon him to have him remain in charge of the association work here but he felt Not Once Since He Entered the White House Has There Been a Day of Illr.ess or an Engagement Postponed. Mark Sullivan, in Collin's Wwkly. First of all, his physique.

Who can remember the morning when the daily papers said the Cabinet meeting had to be postponed because of the indisposition of the President? Where is the record of an engagement broken, even of work avoided in advance to save his strength? Roosevelt has been in the White House 1 i. i i ii auoui seven ana a halt years. The other day I asked Stone, the usher at the middle door, if he i.j i tuuiu runit'inuer wnemer tno President was ever ill. "One day he certainly looked bad he hud a return of that Cuba fever; he really had to push himself to stay at his desk." Who can doubt that that tremendous physical strength accounts for much? Think of the strife and conflict, the pulling and haulinir of counter influences, the weight and importance of the dailv tasks, issues that put in jeopardy his own prestige, the victory of his party, even the peace of the world and every morning to go almost literally bounding downstairs to his work, with a bubbling consciousness that he was "having a perfectly corkint time." What other man with af fairs infinitely petty in compari son, has not been tired, has not avoided engagements, sought seclusion? Undoubtedly the Roosevelt of today owes very much to the physique which, with his own will, he built up from puny beginnings.
