'Committee of l<' stai-ted to Woric in
June, M21. !0n November .10 and 11,
1Ó22, Uiey reported the co-operative'
'inarkating plan around which the Na-
tlonar tlyc'Stock Proiiucnrs’ assocla-
'.tlpn Is organlze<l.
• iThle plan calls for the oj-ganlzatlon
of a national association with subsld-
..lary commission ii.ssocliitlons at vnrl-
' 4us 'shipping points where business
, :)ir08pecte are gooil. Those co.mmisslpn"
associations are purely co-operntlve.
.They are prodHc«!i--o\vuod and pro.

jKoing rate of commission and at the
end of the year pay back tho profits to
Uielr customers In llio form of a pat-

Idea that tho a.‘«oolatlon i s . a co

, ^ I s Is a mistake. Any regular pro-
i^ucér may Join. Originally the mem-
' bérshlp fee was .'¡1П0 for a co-opei-ative
ahlpplng association and §10 for nn in

In till- ireii.sury. At tho end of the year
afipr the nccessary surpluses and re-

I )(li-nd is niallPd out to the agency
members. It's the number ot head

Ч’Ыя plan was adopted in November,
1021. The provisions for putting It

I On .laniinry 2, 1922, tho flrst pro-
diicpr.s’ commission association was
ojiened for .business at the |Natloiial
I stock .yards, Bast St. Louis, 111. •■^bout

. ket, .ii'.ln reality the record at St.
Louis represents a division of effort
, among the farmers themselves. 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. Otber pi-oducers’ agencle.s
have paid expenses from tlie beginning
and will without doubt ^show similar
results at thè end of their year’ii busi
ness.
The Chicago’ Producers’ Conunissloh
association at tbe Union stock yards'
sold 2,718 care the flrst 22 weeks. The
firm Htandji Brat among more tlum one
hundred Chicago commission сотрп'
nies and receipts show a steady In
crease. , •
Averaeea 30 Cars Per Weak.
' 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.

be awfully glad to make them.
Give her this good recipe so
she’ll kno,w just how to do it:
3-4 cup butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 eggs
1 cup self-rising flour
' 14 teaspoon almond extract
' 1-4 lb. almonds, blanched.
Cream thè butter and sugar
together, add eggs beaten light,
then sifted ñour and almond ex
tract. Spread thin in a shallow
pan, sprinkle with chopped nucs
and' sugar. Bake 15 minutes,
and cut in squares.

’ 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

When setting fruit trees for
home use the selection of vari -
ties is of utmost import ince, be
cause what one wants is fn-it
ripening over as long a period of
lime as possible. The cpmnvi r-
cial fruit grower usually confines
his efforts to a comparatively few
varieties, The varie'.ies that are

and as said above, it is of the ut

varieties be selected, whether

The peach tree succeeds in prac- varieties, Red June and AuuA-
tically all sections of the South, dance will probably be the best,
but there is one thing that a peach
tree will not stand, and that is
wet feet. Few, if any fi uit trtes
will do this. Therefore one of
the very first things to do is to
see tQit that the land where the
trees are to be set is properly
drained. A low, ^ e t place is al
ways to- be avoided, unless, of
course, it can be properly drained.
h is also important to select as
far as possible for fruit trees,
ground that is properly air drain
ed, as well as water drained. It
is a well kno.wn fact that cold air
is heavier than warm air and set
tles to the bottom. Therefore
wherever it can be done, select
a high piece of ground for the
fruit trees, so as to insure as far
as possible, a proper air dainage.
This will go a long ways toward
preventing damage by late frost
and freezing, because it is always
. in the low places that are improp-
unless one especially wants some
for preserving purposes. In this
case use the Red June for eating
purposes and the Damson variety
for preserving.

that only a few ^varieties should
be planted iii the South, except
in .the upper portions. In the
lower part of the South the Sand
Pear or Pineapple pear should be
phnted, as it is blight proof and
is e.xce.l nt for canning and pre
serving. The Kitffer, while not
blight proof, is not so susceptible
to this disease as the otner vari
eties, and where one does not
wish to grow the Sand or Pine
apple pear, the Kieffei is proba
bly the next best choice. Other
good varieties ure Garber, Seckel

At the i;i.'quest of J. Q. Garút,

Ove man look up with the de-
partiuvnt of auricuKure the mat
ter of providing for the stand
ardization o'f tobacco gn des that
C0U41 be used as a basis for тн.г-
keting under the authority of the
United Stiffs warehotts; act, ;he
prim.it V obj ct being to provide
a system with resptct to tob.uco
w,.rehouring, a d hcis received a
còmmunication in reply fioniiVlr.
li’rank B. Wilkinson, actin;; chief'
of bureau, W ncn reads in p>.rtas
follows;
“Um er this tintative plan thè
bureau has p;ovided a sysiem of
grades for 15 iuipoitant types of
tobacco, including the flue-cur.-d
grades; have been adopted, and
are being used at the- present
time by the Tijbacco Growers Co
operative association of Ruleigh,
N. C. The system h.-iS proven j
veiy satisfactory for the purpose 1
of the association. The tentative¡
grades áre also being used by all
warehouse meo licensed un'!i r
thu United States vvareln use act,
as well as by a large number i..f,
rii-drving aiid packing plants in
your .state.
"The ace is entirely permi -sivo
with respect to the use of stand
ard gra ies worked out by che tie-
paitment except in connection
with warehouseü licensed under
the act. Ver,y few di the targe
tobacco companies operating iii
North Carolina have u'ed the
grades prepaied' oy the d 'pavt-
menc to any great extent with
the exception of those compa^úes
which purchase" tobacco diiectly
from the tobacco growers asso
ciation.
KEEPING UP standards
“To carry out. ivlr. Gantt’s sug
gestión that all public tobacco
sales warehouses be required to
keepa full line of etandatd grades
woula involv'b some difficuity, as
it requires a rather elaborate con
ditioning apparatus to preserve
samples or ieax lubacco in such a
way as to avoid ciiaiige, break
age ^and deterioration. When
standard grades have been estab
lished, it is the p^an of the de
partment to maintain in one or
two iniportaüt markets of the
state btandard grad-^'s samples
which may be inspected by far-
uieiv, dealers anci others inter-
esied fiom time to time. Under
tiie tentative gl ades v/hich have
bee./ worked oui, it has been nec
essa/у for us to limit our cohec-
tio.'i of sumples to our tobacco
st.-.ndardization laboxaio’y in

Farmers Help Themselves
'■'X ■ v "Taxes are a bit high, but we
are starting things in Old Davie,”
said a citizen to us the other day.
"Iter one,” ha continued, "be
lieve the people are going to re
elect the présent county officials
another y»?ar.” This seems to
be the general sentiment every
where, We want progressive anc
honest men, who give us some
thing for the money we spend in
taxes. • y
Milk is possibly thu most nour-
' ishing diet obtainable. This is
certainly triie as to growing chil
dren. Children should have
plenty of good pure milk. One
would think, that in a great graz
ing county like Davie, there
\yould be no one who did not
' drinit all the milk needed, but
■^e venture the , assertion that
there are liundreds of growing
children in thi» county who are
under nouriseedi and who would
pick up weight and start growing
by the use of an extra pint, or
quart, of milk per day. See that
your children get all the good
pure milk they can drink. It
may save you an expensive doctor
bill and save the child’s health.
The other day a farmer asked
us, “D9 you know of any one in
town who needs a load of nice
firewood?” He stated that he
had some fine wood that he would
like to sell, but,did not know of
any one who wanted to buy it.
A few minutes after he had walk
ed out of our office we met a re
sident of the town on the street
and stopped to pass the time of
day with him. "Do you kr:ow
where I could purchase a good
load.or tv.’o of firewood,” he ask
ed us. We thought ‘ here is a
concrete example of where one
ofour wantadi. would serve two.”
Had this man advertised that he
had a number of loads good fire
wood for sale, and had the man
in town read that ad, you can see
where both would have been bene
fited. The man would have sold
his wood and the town man wou'd
have been rewarded for reading
the ad, in that .he would have
known juBt:where to get his need
ed firewood. Mr. Farmer, if you!
have anything to.try, one of our
want adf. Friend Reader, read
the ads in this paper. You may
be greatly benefited.
It is found that more ihan two
billion dollHrs’ worth of business
was done last year by organiza
tions of American farmers.
It has long been said that the
agriculturist is primarily a busi
ness man, but it is only of late
that he has compelled recognition
in this cap city by adopting the
most up-to-date methods of busi
ness men in other lines.
Col'ectively he is the greatest
of capitalists, also the greatest
of producers. His weak point
has been distribution. When he
learns to distribute his products
us manufacturers do, he will have
his built upon a rock. Through
co-operation and the empliynient
of SKilieJ executives to handle
his goods, he m v do for himself
more than the government can
. ver do for him.

ty thoroughly stripped ,the voter

Glenn Frank has conceived the
ideal President and describes him
in "The Man Who Should be
President” in the January Cen
tury.
He sayi: "The next President
should be a 'man of courage,
should live intellectually and
morally enough above the battle
of politics to enable him to think
and to ae: with the requisite
realism and courage.
"The se vice such a President
could rend*er, would help us break
the paralysis that has fallen upon
American politics. He would
help us reinvest the political pro
cess with reality. There is no
thing more certain than that re
presentative government is doom
ed unless we do away with tho
anonymous b'atkmail which oua
democracy practices on its poli
tical leadership, with the result
that courage gives way to cowar
dice and the statesman turns

Receive Many Inquiries
iBy s'. H. Jeteir)
The ‘.‘Live at-Home” program
put on by the Agricultural Ex
tension Service of the State Col
lege and fostered by the Progres
sive .Farmer and other leading
papers of North Carolina seems
to have met with a hearty recep
tion not only in North Carolina
but in all parts of the country.
Because'of the-Brisbane editorial
I on the News and Observer, the
|i|,coltege has received inquiries
“|from all over the country asking
labout the plan. Business men
fare interested. One large com;
Imercial concern'writes,Wis wish
to use reference to yuurplahm I our advertising-of electrical ap-
1‘pliances.” 0th*r concerns ask
Uhat they be sent copies of the
Iblauks which the f гтегэ^ are
lasked to sign and m my write
liinerely to express appr>) vai.
At least five diiecturs of ex-*
liension from other ^outhern col
lèges have written Director Kil-
|gòre commending the work and
|stating that they will Ике1у put
forward some such plan for. the
ptatea which 'they represent,
^rapng' those ■ commending the
plan arc Director W. W. Lung of
iouth Carolina, T. . Roy Reed, as-
jistant director^'InpArkailsas,

|Many other letters have been
dved commending the move-
ent. A farmer from Mississip-
writes that he wants à copy.of
Jle program, for his state need-
i such a çttovement badly.
Che county agents are finding
iite a favorable response. Many
the agents have aliready had

writes that he held 26
fmeetings in his county on the
ЩЙегпооп an(l hight of February
This agent worked up plans

Over 800,000 refug'ees were res

little fittings and accessories. Every
Hoosier Cabinet is a really fiite i^iece of
of kitchen furniture: Solid and'sub
stantial, it has yet ä daintiness of de

gives to any kitchen a certain distinc

ia vièiting at the parsonoge.
■ We hope to be able to take up
pur regular plaan' of visitation
soon The children [are récupérât
ing very nicely how, we^re glad
to say. . ,
All occassions which draw peo
ple froril their churches on Sun-
mornings, shouldbeheldon week
days. The Sunday School itself
is more to be desired than any
school of methods “about Sunday
School”. Let us do our prayer
ful best to persuade our people
on Davie Circuit to ignore every
unnecessary Sunday occasion and
stick to our job' and make, our
aphoola succeed while the less
scrupulous run about, to extras
and scatter their energies.
I certainly sanction these var
ious church and social gathering
under the proper directions, but
none of them on Sunday if- more
than the individual church invol
ved to take them from their Sun
day Schools I trust none of my
churches will want any such big
Sunday morning occassions their
and that none of my people will
want to run off to others and
thus miss their Sunday - Schools.
If we must have extra Sunday
meeting lets have them Sunday
afternoons, when Sunday School
are not meeting, less we tare
down more than we build, Read
ers, who favor this begin to pray
about it and talk about it. .. .

They belong to the lily family.
They require a soil with an a-
bundance of humus.
They require a cool, moist cli
mate for early growth, and hot,
dry weather conditions while
maturing.
In eastern North Carolina they
must be grown ¡as a winter or
spring crop. In the moutains
they may be grown as a summer
crop.
The crop may ba grown by
tht--e different methods: By sow
ing the seed directly in the field,
by sowing the seed in a hotbed
and transplanting to the fields or
by planting small onions or sets
THiB -transplantin'r method gives
the largest yields, but because
of the labor it; cost it is impracti-
cal except for small areas or tor
localities where labor Is cheap.
Careful preparation of the land
and intensive cultivation are the
essentials of successful onion cul
ture.—Robert Schmidt, Division
of Horticulture, State College of

As the writer took a trip from
Lone Hickory to Winston-Salem
via, Mocksville, he passed by
Cook’s school house which has
not been used for two years.
There is not any school in the
community. The building is
worthless. One of the windows
has beeu taken out and used to
reyair the Anderson’s school
house. The Anderson’s, school
house is but' very little' better
than Cook’s, however, it is being
used but under the conditions of
the house the teacher cannot do
justice to the pupil's.. Next we
came to Chestnut Stump school,
which ia a tworteacher school and
a big improvement over the
others. Then we passed Hol
man’s achool, which is also a two-
teacher school but has been weak
ened by the Mocksville consoli
dated school ' By and by we ar
rived in the midst of Davie’s
thriving little town. There we
tound a modern school building
well on the road tO' completion
and everybody rejoicing over the
fact that in the ¡near future their
girls arid boys will have "City
Iducational advantages". But
the “crowning glory” came when
our éyes fell upon the magnifi
cent school building at Smith
Grove, although this building is
a rural district, it has all of
the' modern conveniences found
in the city schools.
Now,' let’s come right down'to
business. Don’t we believe in
'oreign Missions? Yes, we do.
e send'men and women to all
parts of the world t(* carry thé
gosper of- Jesus Christ , to those
who “know it riot”. The various
schools of Davie County are con
tributing to the “Near East Re
ef work’,. This is perfectly al
right and is what every Christian
man and woinan should do. But
we should wake up to the fact
that Clarksville Township should
not be held back because pf sel-
ish interest. Stop! Look!! Listr
en!!! Why not meet and discuss
Consolication in the same prayer-
;ul spirit that we do when we
meet to discuss our church pro
blems. The churches and schools

Davidson, Mar. 10'.—Miss Mary
Bicharda and Miss Mary Black
returned several days ago from
a trip to and stav in Europe cov
ering the fall and winter. Since
reaching home they have been
kept busy answering the ques
tions of friends, relatives to what
théy saw and heard arid learned.
The young ladis went oyer in the
early fall with a group of Rhoades
scholars Miss Richards’ brother,
McDowell Richards, being under
appointment from this state as a
scholar.
Misses Richards and Black re
port a most enjoyable and profit
able trip. They were in England
taking lectures at Oxford univer
sity for its fall, terril." They
found life in that old university
townaltogether pleasing. Besides
nvofiting much by study and work,
in the Bodleian library, they had
time for many, social-activities,
such as afternoon teas, college
breakfasts and dinners.
At the close of the term the
young ladies, accompanied by
McDowell Richards, went on a
continental trip, visiting-^France,
Italy, “ Switzerland, Belgium arid
Holland. They seem unable to
décidé in which oae of the coun
tries visited they haa “the best
time,” but mention as some of
their most entertaining experien
ces, Christmas in Rome, the ëx-
cursion to Vesuvius, a week-end
in lilice and excusións from there
to Monte Carlo through a country
beautiful in orange and'olive
groves and all varieties - of tropi
cal growths, 1 thé winter sports
i^n Switzerland, and days in Brus
sels and the Hague.
The young ladies visited Scot-
and in the early fall before they
entered upon serious study at
)xfgrd. They speak of Edin*
)urgh as*being probebly the most
)eautiful and interesting'^ city
1;hey visited. They did not like
London anything like so well as
they did ^<!>>>burgh.
The return voyage to America
was made on the S. S. Olympib,
of the White Star line. ' The trip
proved comfortable, the weather
being favorable for a good voy
age and allowirig the passengers
to enjoy the ocean “breezea” to
the limit.

. are a-dark Klossy green and stay
on throughout the winter. From

of the l«ad'ersii and everyone
shoHld’plant; one ormore clumps
of this beautiful flowering shriib,
Spirea Van ;Hóutte, the common
name of which' is bridal-: bow^r,
is one of the best. It produqes
a*'great mass of whiter blooms

Ten cars of this coal came from
the old Cuinnock mine in Lee
County and eight from the 'new

Regular use of this coal during
many, months has demonstrated
to the officials of the Norfolk and
Southern railroad that it is very
good for use-in locon]otives, an-?
opens great possiblities for fu
ture . development. All of the
tniinload that came into R kigh
Sunday will be consumed by this
railroad.
This trainload was the fi-st
shipment of such large amoiirt
to be hauled at one time fron
the-'.e North Carolina mines, but

er output in the future, that will
soon place this state in its right

Mocksville, N. C. Mar. 20,1924
The following from last weeks
issue -of the Asheboro Courier,
Congressman’s paper, show that
the Mocksville chamber of com
merce is making an excuse for
its existance and that that organi
zation is starting out in the right
direction:
‘Representatives from , the
I’chambers of commerce of Davie
land Davidson counties met this
¡ past week at Lexington and join-
[ed hands in an effort to secure
|the construction .of a highway
Ibridgeacross the Ÿâdkin.River.
pheyalso pledged themselves to
push with vigor a movement to
Secure the construction of a hard
«surfaced highway betwéen Mocks-
fville and Asheboro, through Lex-
|ington, and to invite their neigh-
?boring counties of Iredell, Ran-
cdolph, Moore and Guilford to join
«in the promotion .of this Finehiirst
|to Blowing Rock road.”
The Enterprise hopes to see
ithe Yadkin between Davie and
iDavidson' bridged and a first
Iclass 'state highway built over
{the route advocated. This would
Icertainly put Mocksville and
|Davie' County on the highway
Imap.
The Greatest Asset.
The very wholesome sugges-
Itions made by the Rutherfordton'
|Sun last week are as applicable
fto Davie County as they are to
lutherford. Says the Sun;
* 'The County Teachers' Associa-
|tion'took a forward ’ step Friday
Iwhen they went on record favor
in g -a n eight months’ public
School term. It is fair and just.
U present the country bred child
ipoes not have the same educa-t
tional opportunity that the town
|and city child have. ^ Tliis is an
{old custom that'should'be abolish-
|ed.. Why should the state make
iany distinction? the' country
Iboy and girl deserves as good an
yapportunity as his city neighbor.
le- is -as capable' of absorbing
|training arid in' many instances,
lore.:
In industrial sections it would
|put children through the seventh
Igrade before they ai’e old enough
po work in the mills. It would
pqualize educational opportuni-
EtieS. ; ^
There are “Precious Jewel,
luman Minds” in the rural sec-
itions that need polishing with
^education : and,' culture., Who
‘ '‘inows but w hat, this, county
^^ight raise up an Edison, Henry
Pord, -Wilson, Burbank, or some
^Veat preacher or teacher if we
p an discover him, or her through
^he'channel of education. '
I It takes $й,000 per month to
pay teachers salaries in this coun-
and ?i,000 per month to pay
|or all trucks. If we could raise
an additional $48,000 for school
Ipurposes it would run our schools
Й\уо; months longer. A county
pvide tax levy of 20c on the $100
^orth of property would easily
Ш0 that.. Many towns and special
jax districts now levy more than
that. Some of our largest tax
jpaybrs in the county, pay little
|o the school fund. ' Our largest
fj^ipayer is the C. C. & 0, rail-
oad and it pays very liti le. Think
?hat a county wide levy of 20c
/ould do. It • would lower taxes
l inahy sections and raise them
1, others. We.need equ^ization.;
I^bur’greatest asset is our boys
(id girls. Let’s help them.”
Down in Florida a new kind of
creature has brust into the lime
light. This is "girl preacher.”
She is a "mere girl, ” it is said,
and is kno.wn "The Flapper
Evangelist.” She is holding, a
meeting in a big show tent near
St. Petersburg, Fja., and reports
say that large crowds are flocking
out to hear her every evening
She upholds the "modern girl,”

“We must not get too loud

make this out break of ‘shieking’
unpopular. It has existed in
some form or other, since the
world began.; Girls have-turned
‘Shebas’ in answer tb the call of
unfettered youth and' to keep
their husbands and sweethearts
from stepping out -with some
other‘sweet mama.’
“This wildness will pass. It
is just a novelty. It is not going

into commercilizei ‘petting.’
.But the good girls have. a cons
cience, and they always re
member, sometimes sorrowfully
when some man has mauled a-
round over them, and this very
conscience is so potent that the
flapper’s freedom is > littl6 less
than her protection.
Well, we hope she’ is right,
but we could, not hold up her
teaching aS infallible by any
means. But certainly her preach
ing must be a source of much
comfort to the “flappers”^ in
these days when they are being
lambasted from platform, press
and pulpit. But after all, is
there “anything new under the
sun?’
Have You Got It?
We would like to know how
many people really get the var-
iotis newspapers which they sub
scribe for here during each term
of court. The offers made by
some are, indeed, very attractive
W e. understand that some were
selling -the Progressive Farmer
three years for two dollars and
giving a dollar pocket book free.
Now, IF you should get the Pro
gressive Farmer, as stated, you
get your moneys worth—and then
some. If you fail to get the pa
per, you just have a receipt sign
ed by some fake agent, and ttat’s
all' Every farmer should have,
the Progressive Farmer, and read
it, but why pay this price for it
when you can get it for less. We
will sell you the Progressive Far
mer and the Mocksville Enter
prise both for $1.25 per year,
and if you should fail to get the
paper, yon know where to find
us at, just drop in and tell
us that you are not getting your
paper,, we will see that you do
get it or we will give you your
money b^ck. We cannot see why
people will subscribe for papeW
from agents they have seen be
fore, and will never see again,
when th'ey can get the same pa
per from men'whom they have
knowr. for years, and can get it
for less money too. Our receipts
are> or th one hundred cents on
the dollar. Whaf s the one worth
you got'from the fellows during

the Circuit. Each boy of twelve
to sixteen who is healthy ^nd
does not smoke or swear and who
will give himself to rigid' obe--
dience to the rules of conduct an
effort is solicited to join. A good
scout riiaster will direct them. It
will be necessary to meet about
two Saturday afternoons in each
month to practice etc. We shall
hope for one good Camping' trip
this summer. Let each such boy
interested send us his name soon.

How to Be¿ Sweet
Potatoes
1^:1 -
•RaleiKli, March 19,—Sweet po
tatoes should be bedded in a
manure heated hot bed about six
weeks befovn it is time .'to set
them in the field,. recom men cl
horticultui'al workers of tlie Agri
cultural Extension Service.
To ma ; ■ llus hot-bed, an ex
cavation 12 I o' is inchei deep
should be made under tiie frame
■ and in this should- , be placed
stable riianure to a depth of 8 to
12 inches. This should be water
■ ed if dr.y and well packed.^ Pn
this should 1)0, pl:\ced 3' to *1 in-
'ches ot! clean sand in which pO'
tatoes hav2 never been grôwn.
After heaMhg has reached the
highest point and dropped to 80
• dr 85 d'eg. F., the potatoes should
be firmly placed in the bed leav
ing at least an inch of .space be
tw<Jen them. If the potatoes are
too close* the sprouts will be so
crowded that long spirtdling
plants will be produced. After
placing the potatoes,, cover them
with sand to ,the depth of about
ran inch, ( and when the sprouts
I begin to force their way through
• tii^'surface' apply . 2 inches more
of sand. '
The temperature of ,,the bed

an asset to the world.
over-balancc.4 the evil eifect it may produce, then be in this way an
asset. Too many of us get the idea early in life that the ganie is
best played by getting all we can and giving as near nothing: as
we can, which is all wrong. The old ^vorld owes us nothing. If
we pass through and leave it as well off as we foifnd it, the balance
is about fifty-fifty, only we have filled space that might have ac
commodated a farjjetter man, or even a pig which would have
added at least a few pounds of food to the wox-ld’s supply. Per
haps nothing is so responsible for suffering as selfishness. The
young man or woman who is starting along with the idea that
the right way to play the game of life is to get as much out, of
it as po.ssibie ^vit'h putting the leas^^^possible into the deal, should
stop and think hard and earnestly, "What does it all mean? Why
am I here?” Even Ihe smallest plant that grows,is an asset
becausd it serves something. It may beautify an otherwise rough
spot, or it may serve as an antidote for some poison, or it may
iJ.^ther plant food from the air and deposit in the*soil for the
growth of a better plant. - Shall we be the least of all God’s crea
tion—a liability to the world, or shall we be an asset?

' ' No nation'ever went into war and came out without it’s moral

though that training be only aiong-the lines of self-defense.' The
great World War may have accomplished some little good by
way of bringing millions of different nationalities together, in the
exchange of ideas and above all giving our youth a sort of first

corruption, slacjcened moral codes, and pandemonium, generally.

B. Johnstone charmingly enter
tained at one of the prettiest
parties ever given here. The
hall and living-room were decor
ated, with joiiquils, and, the flow
ers in the parlor were white
jonquils and lavendar primroses.
On arriving the - hostess gave
each guest a tiny sealed envelope,
and explained that a game was
to be played. Upon opening
them a ring was found, insioe to
be used in the game of rlng-toss
which was played at four tables.
It .was discovered by Miss Mary
Heitman that Miss Margaret Alli
son’s ring was different from the
others, having a tag on it with
the initials “M. E. A.” —"E. C.
L. ” thus announcing the engage
ment of Miss'Allison to Mr. .Cliri-
ard LeGrand., The lovely b ride-
o-be, was showered with good
wishes by her friends, and some
one ,remarked that the pictures
of; the engaged couple were on
the mantelpiece. After a num
ber i of interesting games, in
which Mrs. E. G. Painter was
the lucky winner, the hostess
asked the guests to write their
good wishes for the fair honoree
in a dainty hand-painted booklet.
Delicious refreshments consist
ing-.of ice-cream in the shape of
lavendar slippers filled with
candied violets, angel cake, white
cakes in the shane of hearts,
wedding rings, and engagement
rings, and lavendar and white
mints were served. Each guest
was given as a souvenir a pretty
lavender crepe paper baskfet filled
with violets, with a tiny bag.of
rice attached. The baskets of
Miss Margaret Allison and Miss
Louise Rodwell had orange blos
soms and tiny white bride’s slip-
persi.tied'to the handles. The
hpstessjthen. brought in a tray, of
miniature candles lighted, which
she gave to each guest, saying
that the candle which burned out
firsts would', prove who would be
the next bride. Much merriment
was caused by a very clever ori
ginals p6em vvritt^n by Mrs.
Johnstone which Miss Mary
Heitman read. It was entitled
“Margaret and Clinard”, and
was an account of the friendship
which began in their'early school
days, and deepened into love, and
will lead them' to the altar in
June 1924. Both of these young
people.! are very talented and
popular;. and their scores of
friends: wish/thern all joy. The
hostess ;.ptesented the . honoree
with a Jovely pair of pillows and
beautifully; erabi-oidered pilloyv-
cases, and to'Miss Louise Rod-
well, another attriactive bride-to-
be, a pretty pair of hand-painted
candle-sticks, “while Mrs. E. G.

Thè Aim of Farming is to
Produce Salable Produce
.'Ф
Raleigh, March 19.—Where
does marketing begin? The bim
of a man seeking profits on the
' farm is to produce a salable pro-
• duct. If that is the case he must
; employbala^pcd farmn'g method.
' In this way does Correli Shuma
ker, speci*ili8t in marketing for
the Stdt« ColisRe of Agriculture,
■tate the case for better atten.
tion to growing crops for mar-
' ket
He says, “There was a time
■ when all good farmers prided
' themselves upon the fatness of
: their family cows. If Bossy’s
J ; , bony structure was notcomplete-
I' ly conqealed with a heavy layer
of fat it was thought that she
' Jiad not been properly treated.
Owners of cattle in poor condi*
. tion .were lopkeà upon as being
guilty of careless and\ inhumane
treatment. Present-day testing
' methods pròve the fallacy of
. this old . belief. We find that
I some fat cows may bé very poor
, milk •.producers. Cows capable
; of heavy production may become
! poor produieers;if not fed apro-
• perly balanced ration. One sort
of ration may - be conducive to
the production of flesh, another
to the production of milk and
hutterfat. V ^ ,
Via like manner a farm, al-
t. though having every appearance
• of being fat, may not be proñt-
; able. It may be capable of pro*.
. > ducing fine ptofitsif carefully
i managed, and yet even bounteous
{ yields of poor quality crops or
light yields of very high quality
' [iproducts may leave the owiier
; wiÀ'a loss at the end of the aea-
, ;son.’ A farm, then, like the cow
. needs balanced rations. The ra*
i tibns of the farm are the ipethods
employed. Poor seed may be
. planted in; good stiU and yield
: jpoor results.. You. nay sow good
> .seed in gmd soil and Ket an in*
' ) ferior crop if you fail to conibat
disewes and in^ct pesta. ¿Heavy
. yields may bring only a small in
coiné if the product is not sala
ble: ,
“Every phaM,of the farm work
has its bearing upon marketing.
Seed selection, ■ seed treatment,
I time and manner of planting,
¡.cultural, practices, pest control,
' time and manner of harvesting,
and the method of preparing the
harvested product for the market
',~all are esséntial in the produc-
‘ tion of a commpdity acceptable
■ ;in the market.”

Raleigh, March 19.—Every
gardener should plant some pep
pers this year, fas they are not
only exeellent for table use but
also furnish a good crop for the
market and are becoming more
popular as a ; gfSrden crop each
season, saya R. F. Payne, Exten
sion Horticulturist for the State
College of, Agriculture.
Mr. Payne givra the' following
suggestions as to growing'the
crop. He says, "Peppers grow
best on a deep, well-drained,
fertile, sandy loam soil. Appli
cations of 'btmyard manure give
good results., Comroerical ferti
lizer, an^yzing 8-4-5 to 8, appli-
ed at the rate of *600 to ISnO lbs.
per acre is recommended,
■‘‘The crop is tender to frost,so
should be sown in the hot bed a-
bout 60 days before time to trans
plant to the field. These plants
need to .;be transplanted to the
cold frame to harden-oif and to
get a stockier plant.
“After all danger of frost is
over, they should be set in the
field in rows two to three feet a-
part and 18 to 20 inchei apart in
the row. The soil should be thor
oughly prepared before setting
out the plants Cultivation should
be given frequently to conserve
soil moisture and dwtroy weeds.
The first cultivation should be
deep and later one shallow.
"The following mild fruited
varieties are good: Bull Nose,
Ruby King, Piraineto, Chinese

Jenkins In Jail
Lexington, March 15.—Charg
ed with the murder of a woman
whose body was found in his room
at Thomasville, L. C. Jenkins)
, chief, of .police of Thomasville, is
in the coiinty jail here awaiting
Tn tlie p icV & V m i^ hearing. He was
bile after telling the night desk morning by
rhan at headquarters that he was
on t}ie trial of bootleggers. He
has hot been heard from since.
The disappearance of Chief
Jenkins did not occasion cencern
among the town officers, as they
believed he was in pursuit of a
man wanted oh a whiskey charge
Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins and Pearl,
the little daughter, occupied a
room in the home of Mr. and
Mrs. J. T. Carter, and anxiety
pf the Carters over the non-ap-
perance on the ouiside of either
the woman or child for food or
. other needs led tp the discovery
other needs led to the discovery
to the true situation today.
‘. Shortly , after midnight last
nigh.t,' Mr. Garter, when he got
, home fronl his cafe, urged into
inquiries by his Wife, knocked bn
the door just across the hall from
his own bedrroom. The Jenkins
girl called out “po away” and he
reported the matter to pulice
headquarters. Oflicers there ad
vised him .not to worry about the
Jenkins’ as there probably was
no cause for alarm.
At 9:30 o’clock this morning, a
patrolman knocked at the door
of Jenkins’ room. The girl an
swered with her “go away” bui
helasked her it’iher father was
at home. She replied that, he
w'as not and she did not respond
when asked if her mother was
with her.
The policeman a few!£minute5
later sent the negro woman „who
works for the Carters into tiie
room and she found the undress
ed body of Mra. Jenkins lyingon,
the bed with the little girl l\ hii>
near it.
A physician suniniono:! stated
tliat Mr.s. Jenkins h;id hecn dead
for “.sonit* tinifi. ’/vii . ,v i.,:;-.
The liead woman. h;;d not lived
uninteiTuptediy with Cheif Jen
kins sincu he came to Tiumias-
ville. He had been away on ac-
easions to "visit liis i';.ini|y,”
police .stated, and .siio with the
little, da'jghter, Iims visited l,im
several times. '.I'hey arrived last
there
sheriff R. L. Talbert, into whose
care he was delivered by City
Manager R. M. Cooksey, of
Thomasville. Date of the preli
minary hearing has not yet been
set. but it is thought that he will
be ai raigned in recorder’s court
within the next few days.
His whereabouts a mystery
since midnight Wednesday, Jen
kins arrived in Thomasville about
ihree o’clock this morning, went
to a cafe and made inquiries a-
bout a httle girl, the daughter of
the woman found in his room.
He was told that the little girl
was getting along allright and he
then gave himself up to Police
man Lookabill, who in turn gave
him into the custody of City Man
ager Conksey and Jenkins was
brought to Davidson county jail.
Jenkins was in a very nervous
condition, and when seen in his
call he had very little to say. He
lalked this morning to Sheriff
Talbert, but g; ve,very lit le in.
formation relative to tho crime!
He declared that the woman, who
was first known in Thomasville
as his wife and has later been
identified- as Mi’.s. Elizabeth D.
Jones, wife of Thomas S Jones,
Appalachia. Virginia, Killed her
self. When asked for his expla
nation as to how tho woman could
shoot h; rscif ill the left shoulder
so that tho bullet would range to
the front towards tlie heart, he
said nothing,

Here’s a cunning "singing
game” which you can tt ach little
brother or sister All of the
kiddies must stand in line- one
behhid another. Eai-h one holds
the coat or dress of the one stand-
ing aheird’of'him,“while singing
the words “Make,a tail, for the
great big whale” they step fore
ward on tip toe in timé with ’he
tun«». The leader who is at one
end of the tail may lead the
others wherever he chooses, un
til the word “whale” has been
sung. At that word each child
stamps his foot, drops the coat
or dress of the one ahead’ turns
quickly and catches at once the’
coat of the one who was just be
hind him. In this way 'th»"re is
a new leader for the tail. The
song is sung again while stopping
in the oppositive direcdon and
once more the kiddies turn.
Th- longer the tail the more fun!

Our forefathers in founding, this government took care to
sweep away the sanr’^and lay the foundation on the, solid rock
which is to say they had no creeds and isms, but'a fiilliaith, in
God and the teachings of Jesus Christ. Ju s t hpW» far creed .and
political ambition figured in the,deal we cannot tell, but oné thing
v/é may well guess and that, is that such a scandal as vve have now
on at the National Capitol would have been dealt with in a manner
to guarantee no-re-occurance in the near future..: 'Nb ,wonder
with such acts of selfishness and treachery comiiig to light .along,
with á thousand others,; that; revqal cheápnéss , and greed right
in the very heart of our govex'riment, that'people are beginning
to feel their confidence even in our federal government slip. One
of the best things, we have read in the past little while is “The
Knot on The End,”-by Si ;D, Gordon, wherein he likens Christian
faith to the knot on the end of a thread with which we sew a
garment. Surely our forefathers tied the knot on the end of the
thread when they built this nation but it: looks very, much like
the knot h^been cut away and the whole structure abbutv.to fall-
to pieces.. Treachery, incompetehcé and unworthiness^ are . being
reveale'd; on every side and political greed to the' extnt' that, we
scarcely know how much is truth and how miith is politics. . We
have too much party machinery. Had a man to stand on his
inerits more, he would bea bit hibre qareful even tho’ he might
be an unworthy man, but since he has only to keep within the
‘.Thou shalt, and thou shalt not” limits of the machine and be as
sured of success without cóñ^deration of real merit, he fpels
pretty free to do as he pleases. Well, the knot in tie end ha?
stood, some pretty severe tésts, and may yet sufficiently intact
endure this-strain, but we fear tljat our national government
is not holding the 'high respect of the people as it once did, and,
once that cpnfidencé is fully shaken the fate of Russia and Mexico
awaits u s.'

COOUDGE EXPECTED TO
SIGN NEW BONUS BILL
Bill Is Designed To Aid Ve

Approaching Old Age.
Oppose Aid to Well Men
IBy David Lawrence in Twin-City ,
- .Sentinel) ; ; ■ . •’
Washington, Maróh 21.-^Presi
dent Cpolidpejprobiibly will sign
the .endowment policy insurance
bill just.passed by the House for
the benefit of soldiers arid .sailors
who participated in the European
war provided thé Senate'dees npt
materially altar the measure.,' v.
The President was opposed to
a bonus bill that, the govetnment
could not afford and ¡.he parti
cularly emphssizèd his àntipathy
toward the payment of funds, to
the ablerbodied." i The new'bill in
large part takes, care; of the vete
rans when they are approaching
old age or when they are in aciite
need. Itis a bill to relievo pos
sible distress and not a measuM
that will permit the ex service
men to frittèr away thè funds
given them as argued by the op-;
pon ents of ‘a lárge cash J outlay.
The principal of; the insurance
bill is so different' from prêviobs
measures passed by congress and
veto€(d ;by ; the exécutive; thatjMr.
Coylidge can consistently sign it.
The Anierican -Legion .favors the
Bill.. The;,totàl : cost to the govi^
ernme.nt'i’.is, slightly, more than

So the, existing budget containsj
the funds, the total cost is not
conjectural as has hereto^oré
been the case, eighty-seven per^
ceiit .,pf the ex-servîce men will
be alive to enjoy the benefits of
the;xin^iirance according to the
estimates of insurance : experts
who have been able in the past;
to ÌBgure out.mortality tables, and
the families ot those veterans'
whp.haye.died since the war will;
immediarley, get the .benefit, of
the insurance payments.
The reason.why thè new mea-!
sure ' will - not make a serious
financial burden is the introduc
tion of the' sinking fund. In
other words the maximum annual
appropriation bill will be. $110ir
836Ì564 while the minimum out
lay for any one year will be $9,-
835,930. Stich sums as that when
set aside r annually grows larger
and:jarger .each year^
Thè law of .probability and

as it will take care of the govern

! There : may be those who will

forced to admire his courage and
■ manhood. This paper does not
claim that all Republican are
‘ lacking in the qualities that go lo
make real men. We have al
ways been a great admirer of
Rooeevelt, and:we still admire
the’ stand which Senator La-
Fòllette has always and is now
taking. /Of . course, the old Re
publican machine.calls LaFollette
an "insurgent”, but one thing
is certain, he doesn't say “Polly

Morris, also. The ring may call
him’ “a kickei;”, but they have
got,: to admit that be has the
courage to stand for what he

certainly shown that he pos.ses-

Those who have read the article

We have never been among
those who discredited red hnir.
Frankly, we have always regard
ed red hair as a sign of extraor
dinary mental ability, as \Veli as
a pretty good indication of an-
industrious inclination on the
part oi: the owner. Of Qourse,
red headed people have the repn-'
tation of possessing an unusual
amount of temper and they have
never been accused of trying to
to suppress their emotions when
thoroughly aroused. Neverthe
less, there are possibly those who
would prefer the flaxoh tresses
of a typical blonde or the jet
black head covering of a brunette
to the “copper tresses” of the
“red headed” individual. But
there is always a remuneration
for everything, if we look it, and
the “red headed’ person can take
new, courage, for Prof. Carl Pear
son, the celebrated European eu-
genist, has juat completed a
mental and physical examination
of more than 2,000 red headed
school children reports that they
“rank with the very foremo.st in
efficiency.” Similar examination
of a large number of red- school
teachers in California prove the
same thing for they too, are “a-
bove the average intellnct.” To
the red headed, therefore, we
would say, cheer up, Titian
tresses have come into to their
own. '
Don’t Kill Tlie Dog-
l^roni Statcsvillo Landmark ,
Killing men and women is so
common that it excites little irt-
terest unless accompanied by un
usual circumstances. Bui; killing
a dog is cause for war. Down
in WiKson county a man killed a
neighbor’s dog. Circumstances
of the killing not recorded and
not important. The dog was dead
ind the slayer of th^ canine found
it nece.?sary to appeal to the' law
for protection of his person and
property against the avenger.
He not only averted that he was
threatened with bodily harm but
that his live stock was in dangtr
of being poisoned and,that the
torch might be applied to his
home while he and his family
slept. Killing a memfeer of the
family may be forgiven, but kill
ing the family dog is tbe unpard
onable sin.

Is A Nagging'Wife A Good
Thing? .
Of all the woes with which one
would hate to be afflicted, a nag
ging wife is it, and yet now comes
along Dr, Eugerie Layman Fisk,
medical divectnr of the New York
Life -Extension Institute, who
says that “a nagging wife is a
boon to any husband.” This
nagging is especially good, “if
it causes the husband to take
precautions to protect his health; ”
and the doctor cites as his authori
ty, figures which he'claims prove
that men , who are fortunate
enough to possess a nagging wife,
as a rule, “live to riper old age.”
Mr. Fisk would, therefore, say
to one. “If your, wife nags at you
do not take it as an affliction,
but as a boon to long life,”
Of couise, none of us have any
right to dispute the opinion of so
liigh an authority, ■ and yet, we
are rather inclined to the idea
that most men will doubt his
statement. We believe it was
iolomon who said, “It is better
to dwell in the corner of the
housetop, than with a brawling
woman and in a wide ,house.”
Most of us will therefore be in-
cline,d to side with, Solomon on
this question.

“Say, Chimmie,let me tellyouse,
I’d be happy as a clam.
If I was only the feller that me
mudder t’inks I am.
She t’inks I am a wonder, an’
she knows her little lad
Could never mix ’ith nuttin’ dat
was ugly, mean or bad;
Oh, lots o’ times I sit an’ t’ing
how nice ’twoud be, gee whiz!;
If a fellei' was de feller dat his:
mother t’inks he is.” |
My friends, be yours a life of i
toil or undiluted joy, |
You still can learn a Itsson firm;
this small unlettered boy; • |
Don’t try to^ be an earth saint
with your eyes fixed on a star, ;
Just try to be the fellow that,
your mother thinks you arc.

Snappy question and answers:
1. “Is the worm, getting bet
ter or worse?” .Ans. 'Just sum
up the evidence and compare it
with any period bf modern times,
and see which is increasing fast
er, reverence or folly; soberness
or frivolity; profanity or meek
ness; contentment or wantonness;
docility or “punkin” headiness;
obedience or disregard for advice
^nd law and right; worthy ideals
or empty hallucinations and fan
cies. Are there more or fewer
laws and courts and officers and!
prison crimes? Since when?
Have good roads made saints of
us or does the devil too ride in

2. Is there a personal ‘Daddy’
living Devil? Ana. If not tnen
whence came this large cron of

Addressing the State Teachers
Assembly, recently ‘ in session in
Raleigh, Dr. J. F. Williams, pro
fessor • of Physical Education,
; Columbia University, declared
i that no feature- of health educa
tion that vvas riot lived daily was
worth while. He advocated the
daily practice of health laws as a
means çif living the best life and
rendering the greatest service.
The Modern Health Cru'sade,
a system of training' in good
health habits which is now used
in many of the schools in 'the
State, is evidently a feature of
health work, that meets Dr. Wil
liam’s approval. This system is
based, ori practice and not pre
cept. Under it children daily do
the duties explained in hygiene
and physiology,, which are too of
ten left undone; During the last
five years millions of school chil-'
dren in America have been train
ed to practice daily certain health
chores till they have bècome es
tablished habits.*
Another important health fact
emphasized by Mrs. Z. V. Con
yers, of Greensboro before tHfe
teachers of the State, was that
underweight in children should
be taken as a danger signal. This
dondition in children, she says, is
usually brought about by the
lack of proper nourishment. The
danger lies in the fact that the
mal-nourjshed child tends to be
come disabled, incapable of re
sisting disease or withstanding
its onset and progress. Nutriion
classes were advocated .for/ chil
dren 7 per' cent underweight.
The basis for nutrition work
th^t every, child requires a cer
tain body weight to. sustain his

CLIMATE AND WEATHER NOT
CURES FOR TUBEKCDLOSiS
Climate and weather-are not
the big ^essentials in the treat
ment of;.tuberculosis, according
to Philip P. Jacobs, editor of the
Journal of Outdoor Life. Speak
ing editorially in the March issue
of the Journal, he declares that
care and-not climate is the big
factor itttaking the cure and de
termines ' to a large extent
patient's^recovery. Given proper
care, which „^of course includes
expert medical sujpervision, tub-
erculoiis ? parents will get well
anS^ where’in the United States,
hesays, i- 'Y ' '
Dr. ' ’Jacobsl*admits that it is
easier , for a (person to take the
cure for tuberculosis in an even
climate; that in such a^ climate
it is much simpleri to live an out
door lif e _and t6..get the benefit of
rest and .the proper mstabolism
.of food. ; But the fact remains
he adds that pedple do get well
of tuberculosis in all sorts of cli
mate.’ f.,- .
To substantiate this, statement.
Dr. Jacobs cites results of the
Home. Hospital which is situated
in one of ;the most corige§tèd dis
tricts iii^’-New York City.-' He
says that the results from this
hospital compare ' favorably with
the heat aanatórià of - the south
west or any other part of the
country.; f Furfehernjore he says
that sanatoria on ."the Atlantic
coast, wheré thé¿e’s all sorts of
■weather,'produce as good results
in : the treatment. and cure of
tuberculosis as any of, the pet
climat'as o'f. the southwest, as far
as; comparative statistics show.
D^. Jacobs issues this statement
inj view of afivising anxious
patients against' heing deluded
by the many .alluring ; advertise
ments of •resàrtsr/'and ' sana,tona,
claiming to have superior adyan-j
tages'aiforded by climate. '
Guessing games are always the
most fun for indoor.9. But here’s
one that can be played in the
garden dr even in the woods.
.The very next time you go with
a group of boys and girls into the
woods where there are. plenty bf
wil^ flowers try playing “Flora
Fair.” Blindfold one of the
children and have someone , lead
hfm. Then get the others to run
about and gather as many difiler-
ent kinds of flowers as there are
to be fpund. Now bring them
back to the blindfolded child and
holding them_one at a time to his
nose make him guess the name
of the flower by smelling it. But
be careful not to ticl^le his nose
'causethat'll make him sneeze!
This is a good way to test" how
keen your sense or smell is. The
child who guesses the most -coi*-
rectly must be crowned with a
garland made from the flowers.
Everybody must hely to weave
the garland.

Raleigh, March 25.—It will
soon be time to plant aweët pota
toes. The crop is common to
most North Carolina farms but
there are a few suggestions a-
bout growing it that might en
able some growers to produce a
more marketable root. As out
lined by R. P. Payne, extension
horticulturiatifor the State College
of Agriculture, the proper soils
and fertilizers are most impor
tant. Mr. Payne says:
“Sweet -potatoes grow best
on a light well-drained sandy
loam with a clay sub-soil. The
light soils will produce a nice
looking potato suitable for the
market and will give plenty of
room for its growth. The clay
sub-soil will prevent the roots
from growing deep into the
ground and making a stringy
potato. Scurg is more severe on
dark soils than on light soils and i
this mars the looks of the potato. |
“A complete fertilizer contain- g
ing 8 to 9 per cent Phosphoric
Acid," 2 to 3 per cent Nitrogen
and 3 to 4 per cent Potash should
be -applied at the rate of 600 to
1000 pounds per acre, depending
upon thé fertility of the soil.
About half of this should be ap
plied in the row a week before or
at planting time.
Transplanting.Sweet Potatoes.
,“The success of the ci;op de
pends largely upon the vigor with
which the plants start growth
after being removed from the
bed and set in the field. The bed
should be thoroughly moistened
before the plants are puUe,ii. The
plants should be wrappei in bur
lap to prevent drying;. Before
set in the field, they should be
“puddled” in' tub containing
■yvater and a quantity of clay and
cow manure which has been j
stirred until it forms a thin slime., j
“The plants should be set on a
cloudy day and the soil pressed
firmly about the roots. About a
half pint of water should be pour
ed around each plant to prevent
loss from dying,
“Theplants should- be set in
rows 26 to 42 inches apart and 12
inches apart in the row. Close
planting in the row will increase
the number of marketable pota
toes and decrease the number of
Jumbos.
“The best results are obtained
from • high ridging as this gives
the potata plenty of room to de
velop. Vine cuttings'^ are more
profitable than draws as the per
centage of marketable potatoes
are increased considerably:”
Carrying School to Shut-In
Children
'To enable children temporarily
confined to their homes by reason
of accident or illness to keep
pace with their regular classroom
work, and to enable children per
manently removed from school
to receive instruction notwith
standing crippled limbs or bodies
the sceool superintendent of Pa
sadena, Cal., has worked out a
plan for sending school to shut-in
children, according to áchooí Life
a publication of the Bureau of.
Education. The work follows
closely thi subjects of. the curri
culum, but handwork is stressed
in'riiost of, the special, eases.
This method gives opportunity
for corrective work and the de
velopment of^ such muscles as
need exercise/ This nart of the

Members of this community
have come to the conclusion that
wishing for spring weather Is a
useless activity of one’s mind.
Even an assertion from the
meovologist that spring is here
has no particular influence upon the weather.

saddened Sunday morning when
they heard of the death of Mrs.

At the opening of school term
in the fall of 1919, the MpcksyiUe
High School . had ' an entQllmeht
of OT pubils; -with a faculty, ûf
two .High School teachers. In
thé State Department of Educa
tion! this riigh School was then
rated, the lowest group of., two
teacher^ High Schocil.
Shortiy after "schodl opened
that fall, ;an additional High
School teacher was employed, at
that time the seven grammar
grades with an en.rollment of
about 150 and with only five
teachers, and the High School
departmentjwere both housed in
the grammar grade building of
seven rooms.
Gradually since that time new
twchers have been, ^ded, new
equipmentpurchased,hew courses
offered, until today with aii en
rollment of 88 in the High School
and in the grades, our school is
recognized as one of the institU'
tions that Mocksville is proud to
point to.
Recentiy, however, the classi
fication of the. High Schools of
the ;State by tHè] Stale depart
ment of .Education has revealed
another fact that the citizens of
the town should.be proud „of.
It is that Mocksville High School
is npt merely on ,the State list
of accredited^igh Schools, but
it is rated' in group I cIm s B s^long
with such High Schools as Albe
marle, Ashboro. Chapel Hill,
Hamlet, Lenoir, Marion, Newton.
Thomasville and Wadesboro.
The classification of the State’s
High Schools' cohsists ,of two
groups: Group I class A ant
class B; Group II class A and
class B; group II class B being
the lowest standard ,c>r^accredited
High School. The '^'nly reqii ir-
ments thàt keep Mocksville; High
Schooliftoin being blassified in
group I class A. are, 1st labora
tory facilities for teaching Biology
2nd a library of at least 1000
volumes, 3rd at least 310 High
School pupils in daily attendance.
Therefore, Mocksville HighScljool
is rated in quality as high ail it
can be rated until oiir population
increases. >
•",ThU is' -a record that every
Mocksville citizen should know
Mrs. Dwiggins was i a faithful
member of Center Church, M. E.
She leaves behind to' moiirn, a
husband, four' daughters, three
sons, and a host of friends.-' •
She was laid to rest in Center

our greatest sympathy.

tion planting. Also, as a general
r u l e ,shrubbery' should be set
from 2è tp Sj feet apart, depend
ing on the size which the plant
girows. Roses should be set 3 to
- 6 feet apart, depending on the
varieties grown and space avail
able. They are not as a rule,
very desirable for planting a-

roses are useful for planting in
the borders of shrub beds where
they will bloom practically ail
summer,, and their attrac.tive
bright .colored flowers give life

The, climbing .varieties ai e. of
ten iused'asiouhdation plantings,
, but: even: with'lthese.théylshoüld
beAiiseti^ully twòi feet out from
the'wall. 'Of course the climbers
should hot: be used except where
one desires a screen or to cut off
the view. -.This would naturally
. mean that the .climbers should be
planted only to oné side of the;
porch; ot: hous^ as it is never
desirable to cut 0ff;the view from
the _f«int win^ws and doorsi
except; in very rare cases where
- unÜBuàl.conditiohs exist.
Location Op . Beds Important.
!^ e s, liKe other shrubbery,
should, as a rule be planted in
masses or. groups, rather than
singly, or, as individual plants. A
ròse bed when properly planted,
, and cared for. is a thing of beaur
ty, but to plant a few bushes
poorly and to put them in the
wrong location, will detract from
rather than add to the appearance
of the grounds. Therefore, the
matter ,of location is one of im-
; portance. Like any other shrub
bery, they may be planted in
groups or clumps provided the
grounds are large, but in this
case, they should be planté only
in the angles of walks, corners,
or other places where clumps of
slttubbery naturally fit in. Either
plant them as clumps of shrub-
• béry in the angles of the walks,
and corners, or put them in beds
to one side or to the rear of the
house. As a general rule it is
preferable to place them to the
rear of the house, making a reg
ular bed out of them.
While the rose gniws on al-
• most any type of soil, yet there
are some soils where'the plants
succeed but indeflierently. The
extremely heavy clay or sandy
soils do not fit well. Therefore,
where one has a very heavy clay
thoroughly prepared, the deeper
the better. A good plan is to
fork up with a spading fork, go
ing down at least .12 to 15 inches
deep, and even deeper than this
is desirable. After it-is spaded,
add tho manure and spade up
again, so as to thoroughly incor
porate it with the soil. Keep
working the soil until it is entire
ly freeof lumps, -trash, rocks, or
other matter of this kind.
In planting roses in this wel
prepared soil, dig the hole deep
enough so the roots may be
spread out in their natural posi
tion. Ne.ver cramp them, bu
allow them to spread out just as
they grow in the nursery row
OJven though the ground is fairly
rich and lias considerable manure
incorporated with it when it was
broken, it is desirable to put
some manure in the hole at the
time the irose is set. It is highly
irnportant, however, that this
manure be not allowed to còme
in contact with the roots." Put
the plant in the hole in the pro
per position and cover'the roots
with top soil, packing it tightly
around the r00 ts. Use only the
top soil or rich soil to come in
contact , with the roots, as the
raw èoil that may have been
thrown out frcm the bottom of
the hole should not be put around,
,he roots, but put up near the
¿urface. After the hole is about
half full.of^apiland qU roots are
covered, 'put' in a shovelful or
two of • well rotted cow stable
manure. Use gnly the well rot
ted material. Horse stable ma
nure is second best to the cow,
but only well rotted manure
should be used.* Where no stable
is available, put a few

On February 2 the ground ho^
was reported to have crawled out
sniffed Hie keen air of winter,
spied his shadow on the ground
and scuttled back into his boudoir
for a six weeks rest until spring
set in. Six weeks, then, of win
ter weather were predicted by
the groundhog-wi.se prophets.
The giound hog was-wrong.
His dopd-book was filled with the
kind of figures and percentages
that made the owner of the Chi
nese horse believe he could beat
Sparky in the California race re
cently.
Knox Henry, certified public
accountant associated with Scott-
Charnley conipany here, has it
all figured q,ut that the ground
hog was 77 per cent^wrong in his
calculation that six weeks more
of real winter were due when ;he
saw his shadow on PJebruary 2.
In the 40 days from February 2
ending on March 13, there were
Sf sunshiny days and one partly
sunshiny, so if the ground hog
had stayed out in his front yard
he would have, enjoyed some of
the best 'weather of the winter.
True, Mr. Henry admits, during
that time between February

and March 13 there was experi
enced the 'roughest- weather of
the winter, but it was for only
day or so at a time.' There were
really only eight bad days, or
days when the sun did not shine.
Whenever the sun shines in this
part of the' worlds it is wel
known, the weather under al
circumstances in this popular sec
tion of the world is ideal when
the sun shines.
So of the 40 »days from Febru
ary 2 to March 13 there were 32
fine days, and only eight days
that could be called bad weather.
The 1924 krourid hog,. a,ccording
to Mr. Henry, missed his bet that

Roses may be set any time dur
ing late fall, winter or early
spring. They should not be trans
planted after growth has started
in the spring. In most sections
of the South this, will mean- that
.they may be planted iu March
and up into the early part of
April.
One will not go wrong by plant

The Angel of Death, that sil
ent visltoi’ who comes to one and
all, irrespective of rank, race or
creed, called on Monday aftei -
noon, March 17, and reifioved
from this world oE siiifering and
sorrovy one,Qf Davie county?s old
est and iini st citizens, Mr. Joseph
W. Collette, of near Cana. ’
Mr. Collett^ was born near
Thomasville, Davidson Couniy,
July 12, 1848 and moved ;to this
county when a mere lad, where
he resided until death, with the
exception of about 3 years spent
in Higginiiville, Missouri.'
He was. a brave and patient
sufferer for'five long months from
a complication' of diseases and
vv hen the summons'arrived near
the middle of a bright spring day
he was, found ready and waiting
to - go ,to that home where there
is no pain nor death. .' < <
This good man passed a life of
simple usefulness, characterized
by his unasisuming manner. He
was a successful farmer, and his
rural life was marked 6y perfect
contentment for he loved nature
and the scenes of her loveliness.
Day by day he lived as he died—,
quietly, gently and at peace with
his fellowman and God.
The funeral services were held-
from Eaton’s Baptist Church
where he worshiped for over half
a century, and were conducted
by Rev, S. W. Hall, of Winston-
Salem and Rev, H. T. Penry, of
Southmont. Pail-bearers were
his four sons and two sohs-in-Iaw
Tnterinent was in the little ceme
tery hear the church by the side
of his wife, who was before her
marriage Mary Elizabeth Ijames.
She, pteceded him to the Great
Beyond twenty-one years ago.
The high esteem in which Mr,
Collette^ Was held, was attested
by the number and beauty of
floral tributes and by the large
concourse of relatives and friends
vvhoi, canie to,pay him their final
respects and to share the grief
of his bereaved one.s,
Sum viiig relatives are four
daughters^ four sons, and a num
ber of grandchildren, and one
half sister; to all of whom we
we extend deepest sympathy and
point to Him 'who “doeth all
things well”. May they be able to
emulate the example of our Lord
in prayer when He taught us to
say “ThyWill Be Done.”

six percent interest compounded
annually. This Avas arranged so
as to discourage' veterans from
borrowing on/ tneir certificates
and failing, to pay up. Themum-

years ,thát .the amount approxi
mated annually can be cut dowji
fpr 'the purpose pf the fund is not
,. to;na;.ake a profit but to take care
of the needs of the veterans.
The bill provides:
First, the payment in cash of
the adjusted service credit to
those veterans to whom $50 or
Jess is due. The basis of the cre
dit is $1 per day for each day of
service, on this side 9f the At-
' Jantiç $1,25 per day for overseas
service. So many men were in
the service fifty days or less that
, the. sacrifice involved was con
sidered relatively small and the
cash amounts in the aggregate
will, not total very much.
Second, the dependent relatives
of the veterans will be paid the
full amount of the insurance
government will indicate on the I Will Push Live-At-
certificate the amounts that can
be borrowed at any one time:
More money can be borrowed as
the policy approaches the end_^pfwiw R ‘ lelgh, MarcH 25. — Accordlng

the beginning, for the policy will Gilbert Stephenson, Vice-Presi-

for loan^ made and no borrowing ?500 in prizes to further the pur-
is pernfiitted until two years after ppses of the “Live-at-Home”litted until two years after
¡assage of the bill. Provi-
is made, to prevent these
' loans from becoming ‘frozen
assets” at the banks.
‘‘The House ways and means
committee estimated that the
average amount of compensation
for those who served over 110
days (maximum service being
560 days) would be about $382.
About $14,799,470 would be pay
able to those now living, About
$50,000,000 would take care m
the claims of families in which
veterans have died since the war
and prior to January.!,• 1924,
Some of the cash payments
may be made during this year
but owing to the labor involved
in setting up the machinery of
administration, the war depart
ment doiisn’t think it will be able
to issue certificates or make pay
ments before next January,

The group of American bank-
policy to which the veteran’s ers, headed by J. P. Morgan &
length of service would have en
titled him based, on a twenty
year paid up endowment policy.
The age of the veteran, is a fac
tor in determining the amount of
insurance to v/hich he would be
entitled.
Third, the credit in no case ex
ceeds $500 for home service and
$625 for overseas duty. The vet
eran receives the equivalent of a
20 year paid up insurance policy
for the amount of his service
credit plus 25 percent and with
interest compounded annually at
4 percent. If a veteran thorefore
is entitled to $500, tho face of Jiis
policy would be IncreaHod by 25
percent to $625 and that sum
compounded at intwe.st oC 4 per
cent for 20 years constitutes the
amount of money he would re
ceive at the end of that period.
If he dies before the 20 years,
hisfamily receives the full amount
the veteran would have received

wonder, why?
We know that we are ideally
situated in aU geographic respects

road facilities and connections as
good as any place in North Caro
lina, the best lighting system in

within the borders of this Old
North State, still we know that
something must he missing. Even
the rankest stranger notices and
mentions ;it on his first visit.
Everyone »‘realizes- it -is a very,
evident fact that* Mocksville has
not the industries that should be
surrounding us on our outskirts.
True we have a Chair and Table
factory, Veneer plant, Shjrt and
Overalls factoi:y. Lumber plant,
and smaller other industries, but
where are^the large Cotton Mills,
' Canning factories, box factories
and many other concerns that
have tried to locate here? We
i heat them discussed today and
tomorrow they are vanished.
'We hear now that some of the
iindustries named above are con
templating leaving and locating
elsewhere. Why?
To the reasonable, sane think
ing man that understands busi
ness there is only one logical^con-
clusion to the deplorable condi
tions that exist right here in our
midsts. That is Industrial War
fare, Industrial Warfefare,' killing
competition, la:k of coordination
or anythiing that one wants to
term it, very intangible and very
evidênt. It has almost got to the
place where the children are
talking it, ,
Every manufacturer located in
Mocksvillo considers his plant in
itself as the old feudal lords diit
over their castles. He thinks
that if any other manufacturer
comes ¡into this vicinity he should
at once consider him as his arch
enemyi his competitôr. The creed
of the-manufactures in Mocks
ville is the survival of the strong
est, he. makes a veritable fetich
of open cut throat competition.
If he is successful in- blocking
any ofcljer companies from coming
here he pats himsfIf on the
shouldèr. and considers- himplf
as adcdmpHshing a good business.
When in truth he is slowry riiin-
ing himself, holding the town
back from all progressiveness
and making Mocksville thé Jobah
to all prospective financiers. •
We must not get the idea that
competition should be eliminated.
That would be almost as bad as
the present conditions.. But that
is not necessary. It is an old
.saying that: cbinpetition is the

in turn will I’eap tho rewards in
larger returns.-
If our manufacturers anti busi
ness men would have some sort
of scientific cooperation among
themselves, if it werp possible
for them to have an intelligent
intemeditary, for instance, the
'Chamberof Commerce, and would
discuss their dilferencss openly,
then the uifficultie.s now existing
would vanish like a bubble on
picket fence, to use Andy
Gump’s phraseology. Mocksvilia
would expand into a real live
prosperous community, .a finan
cial power and would be recgniz-
ed in all respects. We would
have a.home ..that we„ wo.uld be
proud to call ours. But until
they do get into a concilitory
mood and work together, pull
together, boost always, remem
ber the other fellow, we will live
in the same old rut, do the same
old thing day in and day out,
never advance in a liriancial way,
in fact we will be almost the
fictional living dead.
Cooperation and coordiantion
of'effort in business toward the
right channels is the true golden
mean which every true and hon
est Mocksvillian should hold as
the ideal for thich to strive. It
should govern his actions, his
thoughts, his words, and then
we would realize in Mocksville
what only a few are optomistic
enough to hope for.

People And Get Away Witli It—Not
In Old N. C. Good Work Of Uni
versity Exterssion Service.
Just at this time iliei’e is much tal.k in this county атопй
lioth deinocrat.s and ropublican.s, of “I'inji rule.’’ We have recent
ly e.xperienced instancc.s of •vvlioro t!iu will o.f tha majority of tho
voter.s has b;;eii ab.sdlutely ignored. At such a time, the question
6c the primary is of especial interest to us all. The primary gives
oA-ery voter an equal chaiice to expreys himself in the naming of
the candidate.^ in hi^- own party, а.ч he h:i;i in the regular election.
We are for the primary. Vve have ahvay.s believed in tho pri
mary. ir we did not believe in the primary \ve would not favor
democratic gnvernment. Tho other day Governor Pinchot, of
Pennsylvania, a republican, made this .stiitemeiit regarding pri
maries, which we believe wil! prove the sontiment of practically
every honest voter in tliia county:^ , .
“I am for the direct primary, horse, foot, iind dragoons. It
is not a perfect guaranty of good government—there is not such
a thing yet in this uniini.«hed world. But it gives the', people a
real chance to make their will prevail, which the machine ruled
and run convention system does not. Doubtless we shall improve
upon it in the future, but the dii'ect primary is the best way we
havo found up to date. ^
“The convention .s;?stem is the bosses’ delight. Under it
women have no chance. The pi warv is the open door for their
most valuable influence to enter politics. Under the convention
system the candidate without machine backing is beaten before
he starts. The primary gives him a look-in. Under the conven
tion system the only power that can clean up a party is the other
party. Under tho primary it is possible, to clean up from within.”
IVo years ago the “old ring” in this county, as they had'
been doing for years, ran the “steam roller’’ right over the average
rc'publican voter of Divvie. ■ The .voters, therefore, took advantage
of the regular election to “clean up,” and the result was that every
“ring” candidate was defeated. However, the same tactics were
again resorted to this year. And will the voters assert themselves
again as they did two years ago? We fesl quite sure they will.
You can’t run all over the rights of the masses and get away with
it in old North Carolina yet awhile. We are not made out of the
stulf to take such treatment withjut asserting our rights. Let

Is A Time Of Rejoicing
Easter this year falls on the
20th of- April, something that
rare ever happens so late in the
season. The time for the cele
bration of this Christian festival
has tluough the centuries been
the subject of ihuch controversy.
The E.istern and Western church
es brought up the question in
the second century, tha Eastern
Christians contending that the
festival should be held on the
fourteenth day of the first Jew*
ish month, the Jewish Passover,
and the Western churches be
lieving it should be celebrated on
the first Sunday after the four-
t,eenth day. This dispute was
-vetclcd in favor of the Western
church by the Council of Nicaea
3:25.
Ecclesiastical authorities then
adopted the method of adhering
to the moon as a means of deter
mining Easter Sunday, after the
Georgian calendar was introduc
ed, and it could not be decided
wnt;ther-it should be movable or
a fixed feast. It is an; imaginary
moon, however, that'determines
the date. The encj'clopedia says:
