ОЛК GKOVE NEWS Washington, Feb. 4.--'Decision ' to hold a simrtle foiitjial service for former President VVilson, it was authoritatively learned to­ night, u'u i 1 .-!f f'rence to an ex­ pressed WÍBÍ1 i)L' Mr. VVilson that no public or cfiicial exerciscs be held in connection with his fun­ eral or burial. It was in conse­ quence of this circumstance that’ Mrs. Wilson hiis felt unable to yield to the expressed wishes of those who have urg:d public cer­ emonies. America’s war President will . be laid to rest here Wednesday with a.simplicity of religious ser­ vices befittinK the closing:, years of his life. No splendor of official honors, will 'mark the entomb­ ment. But while this decision was maturing among those ,he held closest |n his heart, the name of Woodfow Wilson was a'gain ring- ing,aroiind the world today in an outpouring of tribute to a leader who had given life itself in ser- vice for mankind. Time - was, not so long ago, when that name kindled the war stricken millions of Europe to frantic hopes that the vision that .shone before bis eyes could be wrought in a world reborn to peace. Time was when the tramp of armed hosts on parade; the sui'ge of tens of thousands strain ing to {ilimpse his erect figure greeted him in the great capitals of Europe. The world hung upon his words as seldom if ever be­ fore* upon the 'utterance of any man. And yet after another day, he will be laid tores^for a space in a marble vault on the hills over­ looking the city with naught but the brief ritual of the church to •solemnize his.entombment. The shouting and clamor ended for him and with it^all pomp and cir­ cumstance of greatness of place when the heavy burden of the presidency slipped from his.tired shoulders nearly three yeai's ago.

It should be borne in ,tnind that the increase in money yaluea are to a large extent due to the rise in prices,' which have taken place in recent years and so far as that is thé cáse they do not represent, corresponding in creases in the quantity of wealth. ’ The estimated values of gold and silver, coin and, bullion; the vessels of : the navy and pl:ivate- owned water worká will appear only intotals for theUnitedStates, That the true American spii'it tends towards adventure and Hazard is generally concéeded by all who pay any special attentipri^ to the tendency of the masSes,5hnd ¿oming 'to think on this tend­ ency, there is a reason. .Our ancMtry. must ijaye been full of this -very spirit.

Invention of all lines is the fr^it of risk. Some one must take a chance that means great siiccess or complete ruin. Even our progress along, agricultural lines; .has been purchased at the same pnce, and none will dispute this being the-surest of all lines of work'. -Perhaps this spirit of hazard would be far less extravagant if carried out along better regulated lines, however, our recklessness along these lines, has; put America in the front of all nations as for progress. , Million^s have been spent in the search for hidden treasures that ireally rieyer éxisted^ except in fable. Our coasts having been the haunts of nipny, sea robbers, during the early days. From Nova Scotia, to points well down the coast of South America there are hidden treasure chests, an^ many, fortunes have been spent in the search, while even in the interior there exists points where land robbers are supposeo to have hidden t h e i r treasures, wealthji pilaj^ters duWng the Revolutionary War, the war between the states and other un­ settled times, have hidden their gold. Wealthy cattle men out West and often gold miners have been supposed, to have hidden their wealth frorii the common eriemy of times, arid the lure of it ¿alls hard to the soul of the true Ariierican, It is not so much, the 'desire for the treasure as it Js the tinge of hazard in the blood. Old mother riatùre always, has a hidden treasure for the fellow who will search. However, we should not condemn the tendency tp follow’the rainoow.lure, as it brings, all told, it’s worth many times to the world.

He was a real world figure and one of the few great presidents pro­ duced by America. ' “As an editor, this writer never wrote a line in condemnation of Prf sident Wilson personally, and but little that was critical of his policies. I did not favor the Lea­ gue of Nations, largely because it did not contain Wilson’s Four­ teen Points, which v.’ill live among the immortal documents of his­ tory, perhaps after the League has been forgotten. “If the buccaneers who sat a- round the council table of “peace” in 1919 had listened to Woodrow Wilson, the world, and especially j?uropc, would be in far better shape today.

A nice change in the menu, is to, have a meat pie occasionally. I always find itkinda suprises the folks and they eat it with.relish. There are always bits of chicken or pork or beef leftover and cat- rots, potatoes or peas to go in it. Bnt the real secret of a delicious nieat pje is to get »firm but ten­ der crust. Now here’s the way I make my meat pie erust: 1 work 2' tablespoons of butter (or one each of butter and lard) witi) my finger tips into 2 cups of self- rising flour and then slowly add 3-4 cup of sweet milk and mix with a silver knife. Roll mixture out to 1-4 inch in thickness. Fill a baking dish with cubes of meat moistened with gravy. Cover the top with crust, putting deep gashes in the center and bake in a hot oven. (J. T.

I N order, to determine from an un* prejudiced standpoint, the operating results of the year 1933 as reflected in the position at the principal cerocnt ii)i|ls in the Ea.stern district of the Uni­ ted States, some leading producers of Portland cement in that district recently offered to place their operating returns at my disposal with the request that I should analyze them and determine the facts shown for that year. The returns I am presenting, have, in every case been bnsed upon the Income tax. statements furnished by the concerns to the United States Treasury, They are, therefore, substantially uni­form in their basis of computation be­ sides bein^' free of doubts as to ac­ curacy which might exist were they merely the results of local bookkeeping not checked up-or adjusted to. any general standard, ' The' Industrial results of the year 1922 on' the part of these mills have been the production of the largest vol­ ume of cement in their history. PiSr the eleven companies under con­ sideration, this output was 28,774,191 barrels, or over 25 percent of the en­ tire product of the country as a whole. Gross sales of the eleven coinpanies comprising both new and old product, were worth $49,592,S72. The relationship between the outp4it thus indicated and the capital invested will be inferred from thc statement that tile aggregate net worth of the invested property of the conccrns as reported , was $87,0))3,767; Oil this, actual investment,‘the eleven Relationship between investnient an d earnings of 11 Eastern Portland cement comp&nies, reprcsentlfig 7S% of- the cement produced in the East mills have earned a total net income after expenses and taxes amounting to $6,363,461, or an average retur;i of about 7.3 per cent for the entire group.It is worth noting that great;varia- tions in the percentage of net earnings to net worth are found, some con^panies reporting only a fraction of t {^er, cent as their net return, while others riin higher. In varying, degrees. Several were operated at a net lo?s. It is also interestiiig to observe that the-largest percentage of returt^is by no msahs obtained by the largest ràmpaples.- Total cash dividends declared dur­ ing the year 1923 were $?,_278,<34, or an average percentage of slightlj^ over 3.5 per cent on a total capitalization of $64,664,061 (reckoning both common and preferred stock as the basis of computation). Four companies de­ clared no dividends whatever. Two stock dividends were declared, amount­ ing together to $2,833,900,- or sligchtly less than 4.6 per cent on the combined canitalization just mcntioacd. , In view of the fact that, during the discussions of industrial caroings In recent years, much haa been made-of statements that earnings returns were frequently vitiated by the existence of very large allowances for depreciation, it is especially worth comment that total allowances fOr.depreciation; and depletion of every, kiiid .aggregated, during the year Í933, foi“ this grouii of companies,’ a total, sum of $2,9S4,0M, or the, equivalent of pbout ,3.4 per .cent of the entire net worth of the group as already staled. ' It would appear.that whether viewed as a return, upon business turnover or upon the value of . the outputr'ior whether viewed, as, a return.upoh actual investment, the. earnings, of reiiresenja- tive cement producers diiring the year 1922 have been well below the.average obtained by industrial undertakings' at large. ’ . • ... V.'i' From this point of view, too, it is noteworthy that the eleven cofnpanies; under, study inaterially rediiced their- prices' during 1922, receiving'on, the. average $.13257 less per barrel than iiv 1921., This figure represents the di(f- fere'nee between an average. 1921; priüo. of $1.75453 and a price for 192’ of $1.60196 tts reported.

It was , In. the dark .hour that. tlie. farm' bureau . : proposed a way on^—co-opemtlvo mar- V' ketlng was tlie suggestlon. The magic iwordco-operation* brought the daaed rice- farmers back to consciousness. ' 'ITor -thè flrst timo they , set about to analyze their markets and-find out Just where tho trouble lay. ’ It wasn't '.hard to discoTer. ’ Rice formers, sold their rough prod­ ucé to the buyers „who In turn difh posed of It to . the millers and some- . times they sold It themselves direct ' to the.millers. They knew tliat both ‘ the buyers and the millers were spec- ' ulators. The term miller and specu­ lator had become synonymous In tlie rice'business. They, knew that there ' were over 00 rice mills In America ' and that 85 per cent of them were con-. tròlled':by<4ess than twenty men. *It wasnj;): any secret that tills little group of millers had .in their power the com- ■ plete-.price control. As long aa the ■ : market had paid a living wage with an ,'occasional extra spill for good measure < the rice .men merely grumbled among ■> themselves and did nothing. . ' . la 1011 thuy bad'tried organization. The Southern Rice Growers' : assocta- , tion was formed In Louisiana to act , as-a 'growers' selling agent In deal­ ing with the millers. The organlza- ■ tion was fairly well supported, but It didn't accomplish much. ..Then came the dark days of 1020. Tlie assocla- tlen, 'urged by Its members, tried to nnd a way out- A plan of toll milling was tried, under which the growers turned their rices over to millers, who cleaned -and milled and sold them, k'eepl^ a liberal aimoun^ for toll. That finished the growers. Under this sys^ ; tern came those bills fbr handling, with their big lettered “please remit" print- . ed across the face. The: prices for the , the finest grades were so low that It seldom paid to haul them .to :the mills. ' The association had failed complete­ ly; the only thing left to do was to reorganize, not as a bargaining associa­ tion, but as a full-fledged jcproperative marketing association capable of con­ trolling Us own markets. This was a stilt Job for the growers Were'few in number and the rice growing areas were scattered In various parts ot Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas. Leaders sprang up here and there and offered themselves and their ser%’- ICM to'the cause, in place of the old association a new movement was or- ganized—the Arkan.sas Rice Growers’ Co-operative association. This was started In .Tanuar.v, 1021. ’I'he cam­ paign was carried on with grim deter­ mination and In less than 00 days SOO grower.s, representing' 80 per cent of the acreage lif the state. Were signed up and In time to market, the J021 ■ crop. Based on Five-Year Contract. 'I’he as.soriutlon was based on a flve- yeiir eontraot c;ovcrlng all tlie rtoe produced liy the, signer. Tiie title tn the rice iiasses.to the association iiiwn delivers-. Tho .vrop Is pooled liy grades and varieties over an entire season's holdings. In this way the reliirns are «(lualized among the juembers. It Is a nonstock, nonprofit organization, muèh tho same as that oí the other •uicèfwful ■ prodvcers’ co-operative». Tlie association Jiegiin marketing .he rice in the rough. They cleaned iiid milled It end then sold It to whole- mle ileaiers. The old-time speculative aii.ver and miller were eliminated. For I few weeks thngs went along well ?noiit:li. The first rice sold over the a.isoclutlon’s tables brought $l.á0 per Uiishol. Then came the smash In the ■iin('k(;r. It dropped and kept on drop­ ping—till olters were hovering around iih Sn-cnnt hasis nnd there were few : nlTerlng.s at that figure.' The condition continued. It begiin to grow worse. It dl(ln’t\pay to sell rice In the rough: there were too many Interme­ diate i’ee.4. The farmere must take os'er the iiiills and market iheir own rloe Jn the clean. This- was Just the situation that the organizers of the marketing company had expected from the beginning; lind they were prepared to meet it. .Although the as.soclatlon had ,no mljl!5 or mpne.v, the milling problem was easily solved. Tentative cohtrfiets ■ivitli several large rice mills were tmide thro\igli which to niill the rice of the co-ópenitlve members when it no longer paid the organization to sell the rli'c in the rough. The War b’lnance coi-poratlon,offered to loan the rice gro\yers GO per cent of the market value of the rice as it was delivered. Tills mijney was to be used for the first advimee payments to • the grow­ ers. Tlie other payment-s were not to lie made until the cleaned rice was on the market. • IVIade.More Than Neighbors. , -The rice farmers of Arkansas began their milling operations in tlio. last week, of November, 1Ó21. This was not until tliò bulk of tlie choice rice in the,state had been sold to outside mills Ш,tlie rditgh., AIL that was left was the ,lower grades, tbut even with, the.se the aesoclatlon averaged oij all gtniieis and''Viirieties a fraction ’ over Op cents- a biishei.'* The bulk ; of the entire,'-'’icropifi '1020 had •gone, at ' 85 cents p^r bushel. ’ During 1021 tlie as- eoclatlo'n: hnndìed 187,700,000 .pounds of rlcei'for which Us (growers netted Í8,^,000. The Arkansas rice grow­ ers'.recelv^ more for their rice'than the ¿rowers'of any other section. They made from 10 to 35 per cent , more than their neighbors In Louisiana. ' In'- '1007 It. was discovered that ;the ewanip’lend of the Upper Sacrarhento .valley \vould grow rice. The Japanese ImmGdlately took advantage of these aci^B, renting, them on' a one-year lease. |Thon they, pitched'in with; their Oriental, pugnacity to make rice pro- ductiqà pay. .As the .CJallfornia-rice Indiistry developed there grew up with It an orgánization half co-operative. The,'Japanese needed someone to sell tijelr product for them. In 1015 the Pacific Rice - Growers' association ¡ was organized, to serve merely as an agent with the exclusive right to sell all 'the members’ rice. The grpwer, however, had the privilege of accept­ ing or rejecting the bids. Under this system each [ grower’s rice was kept separately and ,%yas. accounted for sep­ arately after the expenses of handling ha& Ьадп subtracted. / ' This' way of selling was almost like a public , auction. The association w ap ’t. a real producers; co.-operatlye. iiut It did give good results for about live years,' but In 1020 It failed be­ cause''the ihlllers were .afraid to buy the crop. The, assocloitlon wos forced to ad9pt a new plan. Toll milling was tried..v/ThIs- meant; .wiling pol­ ished- rice.,, Slost. of the growers were wprlclág Itiielr; land,: on a' 9iie-.vear lea^, and this prevented the associa­ tion from buying and operating its owii mills. Uut the tolls-plart didn’t work out,' SO they fixe^ npl the original plan under a new ■ nam ^the; Itlce Growers’ Association of Calibrala. The one-year .contract was lengthened to five; that was the one big chanj^e In tlie plan. . .The title of the rice-was to pass to the associatioti upon dellv- .erjv but the original plan of^ selling each- lot separately wa.s retained. Tho association continued to refer albblds to .the growers for' acceptance. The War Finance corporation; made them a. substanllar loan and the , plan work^. , *There was no dumping of rice; qij- the market In 1021. That .vear tliu association handled more than 1,500,QOO bags of the 1021 crop and sold tli.em for an average of $2.G5, which was almost 40 cents per biig higher, than was made - by^ the un­ organized rice, growers of Texas and Loi'ilalann.' Under One Contract. . Texas and Louisiana saw what co­ operative marketing was doing for Arkansas and California growers ; tliey decided to give tho marketing game a whirl for themselves. In 1022 the Louisiana Farm Bureau Rice Growers' <3o-ojieratlvo association was organ. Ized. it was an e.xact pattei-n of.the" Arkansa.s a.ssociatlon. A similar plan is now being worlced out for ea.st Texas. AVlien Louisiana and Texas groups are well under way, ,it -Is planned to co-ordlmite the three southern .state associations under one overhead machine. Itice farmers are putting their faith in co-operative marketing. O^liey are giving , it a trial lease oil their rice Helds, in 1021 not'one pound of the 2,(ХЮ,1ХЮ,000 pounds of rice produced annually in the United States was sold on the I'o-operatlve plan. During the years 1022 and 192:1 one-half of all the rlcp'' produced was sold through, co­ operative growers’ n.s80Clations.

The Lure of Chance Vs. The Old Home Town— •Stay At Home And; Build up North Carolina —Other Thoughts For The Week Very few of us but have ah eUr for the call of the far-away. Perhaps it is a heritage from 'the remote past—a something of the wonderlust in our blood. But whatever it may be, It seems to be an American peculial’ity, and! for all the trouble it gets us mixed up in, it is perhaps all told, a valuable asset since it leads-into new iields of accomplishment and discovery. Crooks of every descrip­ tion kno-w of the existence of this peculiarity and'play on it ac­ cordingly. Some wonderful, far off investment tha’t promises a quick for-, tune, and next we kriow thexrook is on his way using our hardi earned cash to satisfy his dirty desires for the lowest in life, and| we are'loft with cold feet, an'empty purse and an outlook void of' romance. Better stick to the''surer and, safer things of the horno; town, even if the returns are'slow and none too large and the out-i look without romance. Even the ipail order man can al\yays oifer: a sensational bargain b'ecause he happens to buy a bankrupt stock —a great quantity of goods l|iat had to gò at a sacrifice and such a thing may'never happen a!gain. However, when ali has been rounded up and all cost counted, we find we could have bought the samé goods from the retail m'erchant of limited means and stock,; just around the corner, and srivcd ourself a lot of trouble and risk as well as helped a home industry to stay on foot with the'result that it would have been better hbìe to servò "lis in the fututp. Bet­ ter keep in mind that these \yonders, are always fhv aWay some­ where, and that they never happen close to any ones home. Like chasing the'’rainbow, it is always just ahead, yet we never get there. ' The great country is.always far on ahead. Fact is, it is seen through the golden mist pf romance,and once we have drawn near enough the mist disappears l|aving all things commonplace .-just' a« they were in the old home|town or settlement where we w.ere bom and reared. There is n| better place on earth than right here, for the fellow who is;acci|piated. We don’t mean to say that' no special branch of industry can offer a better field in some spec­ ial section.pf country, nor do A^^ mean to dispute the-fact that men gain in many industries by . mixing and learning how they .do the things in another Section. Tlie exchanging of ideas is always » stimulas Jp-greater and,.more «areful effortr. -But «ur soil and cli­ mate are such that the fellowwho would seek California in order that he might specialize in.fruit growing, might with fat less risk and e-xpense bring a part of ¡California right to'Davie County. We owe the home section the best that is in us, and 'certainly the field is broad enough and,’-fei'tile enough; to absorb the best brain and brawn we can put forth. There is certainly enough of the wonder lust right here,'¡too, if we once learn to lopk for it, in the right places, and in theiright way. It lies hidden in our soil, it sleeps in our mining'pos'sibilities and thrills.e-veiry fiber of our other industries. Our, young men should look around with a keen eye before leaving home andmine cases out of ten when we do this we find that the making^ of a greater North Carolina, is far more desirable than enjoying a ready made California. And lets make this good, good old county the best in the state. ' i ■ ' .To'wear out may be:better Ithan to rush> out,',but to do either, ill the height of folly. We have our three score and ten years as an average life.;, Allowing^an average of tw'elve hours of day liglic for, each twenty-four’ hours, Ave .have a space, of thirty-five years in which to work. W hat might; a man accomplish in thirty-five years if he kept steadily at-it? Orirather we might ask what might he not accomplish? God is I I’easonable; and never by any means shapes things so discordantly as to make it imperative thait we wear ourselves out. i The/ailotinent of time is sufficient for'ihe work requii'ed; therefore, if we ever wear ourselyes out, self alone IS to blatae. But to'rush' out in a world so full of work, is noth­ ing less than a very grave sin. But for all this, a great many of us rust out. The, muscles not, in use become flabby and weak; aiid finally refuse to act. They have: in-a manner rusted'out. The mind not in use [becomes'dull ^nd'finally shapes itself to the .re­ quirements.. The soul that feels not the. thrill of beauty, knows, not sympathy, or love, and sees only self, will soon, rust out and leave the body, actuated only by the,bsiser animal passions.

DEVELOP FLESH Lime Part of Farm Each Year Many a failure is due to the fact that we get the wrong meas ure of life. In the beginning we get a wrong impression of what life really means. There is no more false impression, nor one that works more harm so far as our real success is concerned, than that life means getting all we can for self, perhaps in the way of, wealth, in dollars, or, if perchance we have inherited a bountiful su^jply of this world’s goods, in securing all the com fort we can for self, and as the boys say, “having a general good time” without tiki g any.respon- sibility for the conditions of things around us, A few year.-i at most may be spent in this way under the delusion that weai'e really living, but soon we hav. tired of the=e things and mu-t either get about; .some acconijjlish- ment'or deterhmati jn s jts in am eventually leads to the gu‘ toi Man was creati-d for a purpo. e and that purpo.se in .so deeply in beded in his m kenp that it с not be ignored. Of course, man’ chief duty is “to glorify G ;d”. but certainly he cannot do thi.'- in a better way than in the ac­ complishment 0'' some unselflsr work. We doubt if the real Idl- r is living a more falsp or wo-th- less life than the man who ihink^ only bf the accumulation of dol lars. At most, our financial sue cess is of minor imp irtanca when measured with real living. \Vc- get what we can use of food a d clothing and so do mojn animal of Ihe lowest variety. .But cai it be said of us when we have ' past on "‘Blessed is the ma' whose works follo'.v him” ? Tin n is where our real pleasure, our real living, comes in.

It i'i posiuvely pitiful to see the m iny homes that are without plantings of any kind. Such pUices may oftnn ba seen not on­ ly in the country, but in the cities and towns as well. When one can so easily and so inexpensively beautify these bare places with a small amount of shrubbery and trees, grass and flowers, it is no­ thing short of a calamity for it not to be done, E v e ry o.ve L ik e s B e a u t ifu l Gro und s. It is true that one may live just as long in a home that is not properly beau'ifiird with trees, shrubbery, etc,, but in .such a place, one can never get the most out of life.

Do it now, as ihis pi nting work can be dont any lime during the winter or early spring b fore bud.-t in the plants begin to swell, .

Sink asked if there was not some way whereby she might market her timber and preserve her forest at the same time. Recently H. M. Curran, Farm Foi'ester for thé State College Extension Service, visited the county and spent a good part of a day in Mrs. Sink’s forest. Un­ fortunately the County Agent could not accompany Mr. Curran, but from the report made it was ■shown that there was a consider­ able quantity of marketable tim­ ber now ready to be cut and should be taken cut, Mr. Curran reported further that the place contained one of the most re­ markable growths of young ash that he had seen ‘ift this State, and which, if thinned out, and the few. mature trees removed with care, would doubtless return to Mrs. Sink $1,000. per atremore in some few years hence. ‘‘Wheti the local mill men visit­ ed this timber tract last year their idea was to out ovei' the grov/ing timber” says Mr. Yea­ ger, ‘‘ and then have Mrs. Sink cut t.he rest of the timber, in­ cluding this young ash for woodi Had this been done Mrs, Sink would have received probably less than 10 per cent of the value of her timber,, Under our present plan the timber will be cut and marketed in an orderly way over a period pf years, returning to Mrs. Sink a steady and increas­ ing income, ' and her forest will be preserveb at the same time. I havé no doubt but that there are many other woodlots which might be handled’ in the same manner. ияш яш нш пп BOOKS AND MAGAZINES Our line of books and popular magazines will appeal to you.

J aco b S t e w a r t , Chm. Board Trustees. Agriculture In Our Schools. The teachers of agriculture in the vocational agricultural high schools of the State render a helpful and needed service tff the farmers of their communities as well as preparing the boys tor the business of farming. In a period of twelve months seventy- • eight teachers of agriculture held 679 meetings with 63,308 people in attendance to discuss the pro­ blems of , these fanners and de­ velop plans for improving farm­ ing practices, according to a stater ment by Hoy H. Thorhaa, State Supervisor of Agricultural Edij- cation. Sixty-four of the schools held community fairs, and a ma­ jority of the seventy-eight schools . .made exhibits at county fairs and at the State Fair at Raleigh. In addition to this group service the teachers visited 2562 indivi­ dual farmers on their farms to help them some problem. This individual service covered hun­ dreds of p.oblems connected with the growing of crops, raising livestock, caring for orchards and managing the farms. While rendering this service to the people of their commanities the teachers traveled fa total of 138,035 miles. Each teucher of agriculture is required to have an autoinobile which enables him to render quick service. Plans for the short course work ■ this year are alrendy under way in the ninety-two communities served by the agriculture high schools. During the months of January, February and March the farmers in these communitits will attend from ten to fifty les­ sons to learn how to improve their various farming operations. The courses will be given by the local teachers of agriculture as­ sisted by men trom the State Ex­ tension Division. At the request of t’^e State Supervisor of Aericuliur...

The total for the remaining eight states, including Georgia, Ala­ bama, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Florida, Mis­ sissippi, 1,007,900. Thus it ia shown that the electricity de­ veloped by water power in the Carolinas almost equals the com bined output of the other eight states. Conservative estimates give the potential horsepower of the two Carolinas as 1,552,000, North Carolina 885,000 and South Caro­ lina 677,000. Of the States east of the Missippi, North Carolina is led by only New York iti hydro electric development. Unprecedented industrialgrow- th 18 largely .responsible for this remarkable development and use of electric power in the two states according to a statement today by the North and South Carolina PublicUtility Information Bureau. Expansion of industry has reach ed such proportions as to attract comment from authoritative sources througnout the United States. In its latest issue the Textile World says: “The first impression the visi­ tor gets en route from Danville, Va., to Atlanta, Ga., is that the - .South is on a construction apree. Particularly in North Carolina is this evident. Every hundred yards or so one sees a new mill or a new school or a new bridge.” Mr. Thorndike Saville, of the University of Ijlorth Carolina and Hydraulic Engineer of the North P CaroUna Geological and. Econo mic Survey, in his review of the water power situation in the state says: "A sudden metamorphosis has occured in North Carolina within the past decade by which the State has moved fj-6m twenty- third to fifteenth place in value of its industrie and from; nine­ teenth to about fourth in value of crops, as well as becoming the , createst industml State in the South. Accompanying this has come a tremendous demand for power to meet tne needs of our growing yndustries. This has been met in large part by the cration of a giant water-power business. Even so thei-e id a dearth of power in the State to­ day and the hydro-electric indus­ try is bound to be greatly extend­ ed within the next decade.” Mr. Saville estimates that pow. er demands foir the year 1980 will be approximately 1,000,000 horsepower in North Carolina alone. Evidence of the vast growth of the electrical industry in ihe United States is contained in figures j ust issued by the Nation- al Electric Light Association which show that'in 1928 more than 1,150,000. new customers were added to the electfic light and power companies’ lists. Tnese companies during the year spent $702,143,000 for additions to plants and lines, bringinji the to­ tal investments up to $5,8и0,000.- 000 for the whole countr5^ The total gross income for the country , in 1923 was $1,300,000,000. The companies in that year paid in-.o the federal slate and municipal treasuries approximately $130, 000,000 in taxes..

One co-operative at that market wotiid haw had twice the business and but little more than half tlio overhead. Since the second month of Us carcer i the Producers’ commission has .^tood ! first or second place at that market. The first month 2S0 cars were handled and in the twelfth month 776 cars, itliu total for the year equaled O.O-W cars, iiichuling . river and. drlve-ln busli)e.s.«. This .was a total of 481,-170 head of live stock valued at $9,625,000. ■Net eai-Jilngs for the year aiiiounted to $i:!,;j'J8,5iO, or Я2 per cent net profit. Thirty per cent of this was paid It) the members as patronage re­ fund, about .$fl per ear. 'i'lie second oillce to open was the Producers' Commission Association of TndiunapoHs, Ind. It Is now handling more live stock than any other of the 10 fli-ms In the yards and gets about 28 per cent of all the live stock at In- ,dIunapolls. The business was done al a net profit of i?28,870.88. In a total of mouths tlie St. Louis and Indlnbapolls offlccs have shown earnings^ ready for refund ' of ¥72/i74,2S.

' Seven days after the ^Ica^o olllc« opened the Peoria Producers’ commis­ sion opened. Peoria Is a small truck- In market, but from tbe very b«gln- п1од It has averaged over 30 cars of life stock per week. ■ ' Two new offices are. the Producers’ Oo-operatlve Commission ' association at Bast Buffalo, M. Y., and the Cattle Kaisers and Produieera’ Commission company nt Fort 'Worth, Tex. These two companies bave averaged over one hundred cars a week. The Producers* Commlssloa associa­ tion at Kansas- City opened a short time ago. Commission associations have also been organized at Cleve­ land, O., Sioux Falls, Oklahoma City, Pittsburgh, Olndnnatl-and other points. ■ Tlie big (aid In view Is not a m ere saving of a little commission charge at the tenulnals. The big' Idea Is to provide orderly marketing of 4he dif­ ferent kinds of live stock. It's a long­ time process. There is no easy way— no short cut to the end. ■.There must ■be. campaigns of education which istress the ways and means of secur- llng It. There must be dependable land accurate live etpck statistics avail­ able to shippers. ,A complete system ¡of orderly marketing must take,into ■consideration the (movement of the .Stocker and feedfer cattle, feeding ,sheep and - lamba and stock hogs In .feodlolB and pastures. But the estab­ lishment of’ the co-operative commis­ sion cotupanles at strategic market ¡points under a national plan Is the ; first step. Sometime.s we like to fool peo­ ple. It’s fun to watch how they act A good partv jjanie for fool­ ing the chil(Jren is this one; have everyone seated and then an­ nounce that you are about to go around and whisper in everyone’s ear, the name of an animal. Tell them to be sure to Iveep their name secret and not tell what they are. Next say that after everyone is named you will call one of the name’s aloud and the person whose name that is must jump up and run out of the door as fastas he can. The funny part is that you must give every­ one in the room the same name like Wolf, for instance; Then when you call “Wolf!” each one jumps up and starts to run! Of course they all bump into each other and everyone falls pell-mell and laughs and screams, and they have a fine time. Next time you have a party be sure to play Wolf.

The Fight Will Continue i p V'issiKffU- ’ Washington,Feb.28 —Astream of messenger boys was today de livering messages to every mem­ ber of the North Carolina dele gation in Congress protesting a- gainst the Garner amendment passed on Tuesday in the house to the general tax.bill, increas­ ing the tax on cigarettes from$3 to $4 per thousand. ^ These tele­ graphic protests came from near­ ly e'V’ery important town and from many leading farmers in the state. Their general pur^iort was contained in a dispatch to Representative Hammer from W. A. Goodson, president of the Winston-Salem Tobacco associa­ tion. It read: “ We protest against increased tax on cigarettes. Our people had hoped for some relief from tax burdens instead of increase which would be disastrous to the tobacco growers of your district as well as to manufacturers and dealers and would serioiibly aff­ ect the growth and prosperity of our ent ire state. We beg that you make every effort in your power to defeat this proposed increase tax on cigarettes.” It was said by North Carolina members in the house, all of whom, voted auraitist the Gamer amentiment, that if this proposed increase of tox bn cigarettes was finally passed’ by Congress it would be a great setback to the progress of the state. Nearly all the tobacco grown in the state is smoking tobacco and nine-ten ths of tbis dmoking tobacco is made into cigaretts. The state’s tobacco industry would be seri­ ously crippled. In more than half the territory of the state; the cultivation of smoking tobacco has bec me the leading agricul­ tural crop and thrt principal sour­ ce of revenue of the farm-;rs. The tobacco industry is regard ed as largely responsible for the state’s present prosperiiy, tobac­ co having largely taken the place of coiton and for that reason the farmers,have not felt so severely the ravages of the boll weevil as they have in other southern states where tobacco is not a profitable crop. . Before this feature of the. tax bill can evsr be got through the senate a stubborn fight on it by the whole tobacco industry of the country is sure to take phce. Already a krge number of tobac­ co men have come to Washington Charles Dushkind. counsel of the Merchants Tobacco association of the United States, is here. He w ^ busy today arranging con- fererices'betvveeh representatives of the tobacco industry and meni bers of Congress in an effort to defeat the amendment on the ifinal passage of the bill.' “Nothing could be more incon- sisteni. with the annou K'ed pur- posii of tiie Gariiiir bill to reduce taxes on persons or small means tnan the incorporation in rhal bill of an increase of $1, thous­ and in the taxon cig-'.rettes,” said iVIr.
