'With peaches, an open headed system of pruning is ad visable, in which case the tree is trained to notmore than-foiir scaf fold limbs so selected tfiat no two limbs are directly opposite. This is done toprevent weak crotches, ” Mr. Randall states that sunlight is necessary to best color of fruit and if there is nota.freecirculat- ,■ 'I'n of air, danger from plant dis eases is greater. He says, “ Ex periments with, apple t;'ees made by the North Carolina Station show conclusively thaft itis best to thin O'lt tha small,branches rather ythanto prune severely cutting back the large branches. Because , of soil conditions in the Sandhills 1 It is necessary to prune the peach trees here rather severely. In all other cases, however, it is not wise to cut out too much wood.” Fulton Township Sunday School Institute There was a Sunday School institute at Fulton M. E. Church Sunday, Nov. 2. This Institute was well attended, there being present two preachers, two Sun day School superintendants, twenty officers and teachers with a total of two-hundred and fifty present. Everyone seetned to enjoy the day. It was'.a day well spent. A day full of good talks and sing- ing. We wish to thank Mr. J. R. Foster, Fulton Township Presi dent, for his good work in the mestirig. Mrs. W. E, Kenner, our Adminstrative Division Sup- erintetdanl, talked for 36 min utes telling us how to run a good Sunday School. Her talk was a very helpful and was enjoyed by all We were very fortunate to have with us Professors Paul B. Collins, of Arkansas, and M, H. Hixson, of Tenn., who did some splendid singing. They held the crowd spell-bound as they al ways do when they sing. Many thanks to them.

Concord To Build Hotel * Will man’s ingenuity unhorse ;thè storm-god'^and queir the fury of the tornado ? Will the farmer of the future reach up into the heavens artd bring down the rain, or stay it at Avill, as the present-day farmer throws the switch and puts the elements to turning the wheels of his machinery ? Will the coming genera tion bring the clouds, and then say to the sky, “Come forth,” and it be so? SKairthis generation sweep the fogs from the face of the earth as one brushes the ashes from his cigar? During the , next six weeks army airplanes, equipped with a device patented by Dr. L. iFrancis Warren, of Harvard University, will carry out extensive experiments in the sky with the view to learning the art of ф•iving away fogs, dispersing storms and bringing rain. Electrified sand wiU be used, and these experi ments will be conducted under government supervision. ' The idea is to determine both the peace as well as war value of aviation. Already wonders have resulted from these experiments. Last Wednesday two aviators made an attack on a cloud near the City pf Washington. Observers from the ground could easily see the effects of i:heir destructive work on the cloud attacked. The fact has been demonstrated that clouds can be broken or as sembled; For instance, Dr. Wari^eh tells .»the following story of ;an experience with a severe thunder storm last July:; ; Щ'- “These tests have resulted in some cases in^uiicàiihy mani festations. For example, on July 8, at about 2 o’clock of the af ternoon, a frightfully heavy thunderstorm with almost continuous lightning lay to the south of Phillips Fiejd, over Ciesapeake Bay. at 2 :30 we'attacked a small corner oif this storm with a quantity of negatively diarged sand—rless than ten pounds—and coincident with its application there Was ho .more lightning and ' no more thunder. There followed a slow, gentle rain of about four hours’ _ d u r a t i o n r > - ^ - '> f v '; r j - . '^ i ^ ; ; - r ^ ; : V . , ■ “No claim is,' of course, made th^^he rain is caused by us. because it would have rained anyhow^ut thè rain would .have been attended by constant thunder and lightning and the sudden bursts of downpour so familiar to us. This experiment was in tended to test an opinion expressed by Mr. Edison, in an interview in which he was reported to have stated that we should be able to upset the electric charge of a tornado or a cyclone.” Or. Warren belieyes that the work of assembling clouds and bringing rain, dispersing clouds and fog, as a practical proposition, is easily within the range of possibility. “Two of the larger planes,” he says, ‘.‘would be quite sufficient to entirely quench a dense fog covering an area of 117 sqtlare miles.” He believes that the method can be used as a practical method of producing rain when and Avhere needed, and he closes ; his statement -With these remarks: ’ -/ “Should the government provide the money and facilities to perfect, install" ап(Т operate the process for large scale-work, with hundreds of planfci designed to be built to сагту 3,000 pounds of sand to heights vai-ying from 1,500 to Дб.ООО feet it will have at its command the means of removing fog-over its harbors, leading cities and elsewhere, and the power, further, to cause rainfall as, when and where needed, both in the east: and in the dry and semi- ^ dry sections of the country-provided, of course, that there are rain clouds present,-local or otherwise, and that the air between the earth and the clouds is saturated to a degree beyond the point of evaporation, that is to say, at tinies when it sprinkles and does not rain.” Now there may be some who will say such things -will never be done. That man is tampering with the affairs of Deity when he undertakes such projects. That is exactly what they said-when Franklin, with a kite'string, attempted to discover electricity. Truely these things are the affairs of God, but we read that “It is the glory of God to conceal a thing; but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.” So it is not out of place for us to attempt these great thii/i,'s, but is our duty to “have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and, overall the earth.” , “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than thestei shall he do.” - Coolidge Gets Overwhelming Majorities In The East And The Middle West Concord is raising money with which to erect a modern hotel. The wonder is that a progressive town like that has waited as long as Concord has waited. That town has suffered in the past because of a lack of modern hotel facilities, and the, people áre doing the wise thing when they build a new and more modern hotel. If one had dared advance the ideav-a few ye,vs ago that this State could spend millions,of dollars in ^building a great system of roads without one cent of cost to a single citizen in the State, directly or indirectly, he vfould have been branded as of all iier- sons, most foolish. And yet, it seems that is exactly what has .been done. Interest on our highway bonds and a sinking fund on same are being provided for by a tax on gasoline. But this would indicate that'the man who purchases arid uses the gasoline would have to pay for the roads, indirectly through his gasoline purchases. Yet, Frank Page,. Chairman* of the; State Highway Commission has figured it out that enough less gas is burned on our good roads than would be required were our roads undeveloped, to more than take care of. thé little extra tax on gas. It is'most wonderful. And yet it seéms to be a clear cut example of getting something for nothing. In other words. North Carolina’s “good roads seem to have built themselves, , and they seem capable of maintaining themselves without outside assistance. / New York, Nov. 4.—Coolidge and Dawes swept New York state with a plurelity that had reached over 700,000. when all but 1,397 districta in the state had been tabulated at midnight. Of the districts missing 465 were in New York ci^ and ¡932 up state. They álao rolled up over-whelming ma jorities. in the east and middle west on .the basis of incomplete returns from the general election. In all of Néw England, New York, Nevv Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland, Idiana antáilinoia the lead of the Republican nominees was mount ing steadily at 11 p. m. eastern standard time;'and both the New York Times and the New York World, supporters of John W. Davis, hád conceded his defeat by Mr.: Coolidge^. 3 , At Democratic lieadquartera, ho wever, party leaders still clung to;á hqpe that the west would turn, the trick as it did for Wilson in 1916. , Reports frorn most of the sections'beyondthis Mississip pi still were in the most fragmen tary character, but they gave ;'fte best of it lalfeer-states/t^ All the southern states, includ ing Tennessee, Oklahoma, Keri- tuchy and Missouri, were piling up majorities for Davis. The south apparently had returned by the usual vote its Deinocratic candidates for the aenate, except in Oklahoma, whére J. C. Walton waa running behind. The elec tion of two Republican senators, Borah, of Idaho and Capper of Kansas, had been conceded. With returns complete from more than a hundred congres sional districts, not a single seat had changed from one party column to another. Returns from.^ 5,085 districts out of 7,563 in New York state, including 1920 out of.2970 in New' York City, showed: Coolidge;l,264,239; Davis 658,- 597; LaFolletle 328,389. In all thirty-four states were electing governors, but in most cases there were local* complica tions and cross currents of politi cal opinion which led sophistical politicians to withhold predictions on the basis of the fragmentary early returns. Encouraged by the vote polled by Senator LaFollette in in the east Chicago headquarters of the La Follette-Wheeler campaign announced that their political or ganization would be kept going and try for the congressional elections of 1926 and the presi dential contest of 1928. In some parts of the country drift to Coolidge was so over whelming that it threatens to ri val the Harding landslide of 192Ó. Mr. Harding’s own voting pre cinct in' Marion was carriejd by his successor by a larger major ity than it gave its native son four years ago. In his; own home in Massachu setts, Mr. Coolidge was leading Davis by a ratio of almost: four to one: and La Pqllette by al most fourteen to one; in Maine, also the Coolidge advantage over Davis was almost 4 to 1; in Rhode Island more than 3 to 1, in New Hampshire more than 2 to one and in Connecticut more than two to one. S With 16,000 votes counted in Oklahoma, Davis lead oyer Cool* idge was a little over 1,000, and Watson was poliing only about half as many votes ; aa hie Re publican opponent. With the étaté almost one fourth complete, Kentucky gave Davis 92,500 and Coolidge 79,800. In Tennessee with about a fifth of the state in, the count stood 21,000 for Davis to 12,500 for Coolidge;':’- , In West Virginia, the native 1 state of John W. .Davis, MÎ; Coolidge was leading by a nar- now margin, but in Maryland he ; was counting two votes .to one ' for Mr. .Davis, and in Indiana he was leading Düvis by 5,000, ' - ^ Davis . Was ahead in Mlasouri and Tehnèssee by a ratio of 2 to 1 on the early returns and was leading by lesser majorities in ■ in Oklahoma and Kentucky. ' Democrats Will Elect At ^ Congressmen ; Raleigh, Nov. 4.—Eight outof ’ 10 democratic candidates for Con* gress apparently were elected en - the face of meager returns receiv* ed here tonight from the ballot- ing today jn North Carolina. In the eigth district, J. D. Doreett, repubhcan, waa ieading .Robert L. Doughton, democrat, Incum* bent. 561 to 402 in the only pre cincts rëported. No returns had been received froin the second, sixth and tenth districta, but the first two are normally democratic and conceded by the republican leaders. Thirty-four oui; of 223 precincts in the seventh district gave Con- " gresaman Hammer6,447; Williams 825. In the ninth, 39 out of 214 gave Congressman Bulwinkle, 10,018; Hendricks 3,302.

Out of this one-man, one-town business has grown a Nation- Wide Institution of Department Stores. Its opera tions today offer a sharp contrast with those of 22 years ago. Then a few hundred people were served. Now millions of people living in 571 communities, scatter ed over 41 States, are served. The tremendous collective buying power of these stores has given a savingi)ower to the people which enables them to retain millions of dollars and at the same time enjoy needed goods of indisputably re liable quality.

The words of his text were takn from Daniel 1:8. “ But Daniel piirposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of tha King’s meat, nor with the wine which he'drank ” In the sermon Bro. McKinney made, it plain that to meét the temptations of life and be able to stand firm for God: we must purpose in our hearts not to defile^ ourselves with any sin, : There were not near as many at ))reaching as rnieht have been. Can’t we as . niembers of the church-realize that It is a duty as well as a privilege to attend its services? Thé Bible teaches us, “To him that knoweth to dc good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.” Then if we feel 'that going to church and joining in the worship is dohig good let us be in our places and ’dp our part; lest we committhe sin of omissin.

That would seem somewhat radical in some sectionii, but out in California they do things that would stagger us in the east.

We are still saturated with the old idea' that sickness is a sort of necessity and that there is ¡little or notSing which the average man can do to prevent it. But as a matter of facttheNorth .Caroliaa State Board of Health has demonstrated that much of our illness is pre veritable, and we are now opening our eyes to the fact that the most important thing which we should consider is that of how to keep well and efficient to do the duties of our lives. “The promotion of , patriotism, involving as it does the sense of seif preservation, ■ is not only a public purpos?, but the most ele- . mental of public; purposes,” s^ys the suprema Cjnri of Caiifoinia in deciding th ii. a-public debt in curred for the erecti'-in of a public hall to he kno-.n :,s “Victory; Hall.” is for a leg! imate purpose. Stressing the value of moa' ing of patriotism .h^ couri l oe.s on to say: There ia more or !ess discussion and argumrfnt in a number of the State papers at the present time relative to the mcdern boy and girl. One young man gives out an interview in which he tells why he wou!d not select one of modern bob-haired, gum-chewing liquor-drinking, cigarette-smok ing females for a wife, and the weaker sex comes right back with reasons as to why they would not tie up for life with one of the drug-store cowboys who hang around the corners with their bell- bottomed trousers held up by a oelt three inches wide, with a flask on each hip "and a lustful look in both eyes. And while all this discussion is in progress, whilecolumns of space are being devoted to the issues at large, the sweet young things and their dashing cavaliers continue to call at the marriage license bu reaus and purchase permits to en able them tn hook up. in double- hairnesd and try team-work for a while. Every age, every period has its styles and its types, and the vamp girl and the foppish boy are one of the types of the day.lMarriage has always been an institution from the days of Adam and Eve on up to the present time and al ways will be, regardless of re formers and all others, There will be no cessation of the taking of marriage vows de spite all that can. be said and done. iRHONORROLL Mrs. W.

Nearly 9,000 employees of the Southern have their homes in North Carolina, and their wage earnings last year aggregated $12,000,000. Of these, 2,300 were employed in'the Spericer Shop, the 1923 payroll of which was $3,500,000. W e have kept our capacity as a transportation machine ahead of the demarids upon it. In 1923 our freight service in the State of North Carolina was 82% greater than ill 1913. ' The Southern has spent more than $40,000,000 during the last twenty years in adding to its facilities to provide süperior transportation service for North Carolina industries. Last , year fifty-eight new manufacturing plants were established on Southern Railway lines in the State and ninety-two old plants were enlarged. The main line of the Southern through the Piedmont has been double-tracked. This work on the Washington-Atlanta line cost $52,000,000. No commonwealth in the.South has received greater benefit from this improvement than North Carolina. Our lines in the State represent an Învestmént of nearly $100,000,000. Improvements in the State now under way will call for the expenditure of more than $5,000,000. The Southern that is today serving North Carolina is a trans portation system in which North Carolina c ^ take-piride . The Southern, in turn, is proud to be a buildér of Nbr& Carolina prosperity.

T Random Thoughts of A Hill Fai:mer • A striking thirig about our great Eastern cities is their great cong lomerate foi’eign population. New York City is a veritable Babél*óí tongues. German, Ríjssiári, ánd Polish Jews, Italians, Greeks, Aameniaiis, and Polacks have crowded the native American, stock into the background. It seems to me that three out of every four New 'Yorkc’s speak a broken English.. If we had not shut down on the flood of immigration when v^e did it would have been only a few years until much of the Eastern United States i\'ould have been overrun with these undesirable peoples. Isay undesirable, be cause I believe the beat breied of men the world has ever produced are the North European, Nordic types that largely settled and de veloped America and made our country and its governmental principles enduring and great. I believe our strong support and approval are due our representa tives in Congress who have fought to dam back the great flood of undesirables. I feel, aa I think of our great arid almost pure Anglo-Saxon white population here in the South that we have much to be thankful for. We-have our he- gx’oes, it is true;' but they are a tractable ppople, with many good traits, and we know how to get along with them. Our white pop ulation is more neárly predomi nantly Anglo-Saxon than is to be^ found anywhere eke in America, j and this augurs vvell for our.fut-’ ure. But that this splendid faciai, stock may reach its fullest develop ment and attain its rightful.place of American leaBerseip, we must! provide ' education and training] for our children, without stint or' imit.-:-B.

To Secretaries Of Locals Ral'*i.c;h, Nov. 3. — “Some of oiir very best f.irmers l ave :ui idea that vaccination is the S)ie solu tion of the hoRcholtra problem and they depend entire'y on the immunity given by this treatment for the protection 0 f their swi ne, ’ ’ says D W, C. Dendinger, in charge i f i.o c.iulera control work for the State and Governme it agricultural sgenci<'s/ Because of this feeling of security, the-ie men, finds Dr Dendinger, fre quently disregard those factors responsible J'or the iUroduciion, harnoringanb spread of this cost ly disease “There are two phases of ihe problem,*’ says the Veterinarian. “Firsti andofgreates'limport mce is proper sAiiG management. This comprises the practice of methods that will prevent the in- trbdUction, harboring and spread of infection and if properly ob- . served, there will be little need for vaccination. “It is well known that without infection or tbe virus of cholera, swine cannot contract thediseasp, , This infection does not originale spontaneously and is riot borne through the air. Therefore if the V iufection reaches the swine, it must be carried lo them in some manner,; In another State, inves tigations showed that there were three factors responsible for the ^troduction of infection into free territory. Thèse were the feed- / ing of infected pork in garbage or ; table scraps, the bringing in- of < sick or exposed hogs and the : abuse of the double treatment. If these three things are contro - i ' ed new nutbreaks of the disea e can be-prevented, Theiefore, this would spell the doom of hog cholera. > . “ Once infection has spread to a section, care must be taken lo 'save the bogs by-inoculation and then to prevent the spread of th disease by isolating the sick ones. .

Dual purpose types, such as tho riy- nwuth llocku or Ithode Island Ileds, will give little worry ot maturing too early. The average early-hatched chick should by careful feeding, be ready for laying early in November. Since pullets w ill not lay w hile they are growing rapidly, further develop ment Clin be chpckod oftentim es by Increa.slng the feeds which producc tat, such as corn.

AVhon "city folke" find the crowds In mtd-sunimor are becoming unbearable they want to get aw ay to quiet places where they witl have more “elbow room.” W lien the' square “tenements" o f,the bon we&* vlls become too', crowded', théy also become restlesB and take to the air. However, It la not noessary that they be crowded before their movement begins tor their m igratory Inatlnct prompts thera to seek new fields. The weevil move« from place to place by flight. Although It does not fly tar as compared with many other Insects, It has been known to cover a dlbtance' ot more than forty miles In a short tim e. It ia unable to con tinue flight very long but by a aeries ot short flights, especially when the wind Is favorable, ft m ay cover con- sldorable'dlstances. The first movement Is In the spring from winter quarters to the nearest cotton, usually a short distance. Af ter the weevlln reach tho field- there la very little movement except from plant to plant until w ell along in the summer. Over-^vlntered weevils and tholr offspring for several months only move like a slowly advancing over flow. Up until August about 90 per cent of tho weevils in any field are those which develop practically whore they are found. About the middle of August an In stinct on the p art o f.the weevils to move about becomes noticeable. Dur-< Ing this period w eevils become rest less and tako to tho a ir very active- Iv, flying in all directions. This is sometimes dtie to hoavy infestation in tho field hut seems prim arily to be an Instinct that has causeó tne ex tension of Ihe Infested area in the Uiiitcd States year by -year until now It covers more НГйп 600,000 square miles.With the approach of cold weather there is another distinct movement on Ihe part of the weevil^. This Is ln< to w inter quarters In and about the. cotton fields, and usually is a short flight.One of tho most striking things about the boil weevil Is tho rapid ad vance It has made across the cotton belt. The insect made its w ay llito Southorn Texas about 1882 and since has swept across the cotton territory to the Atlantic seaboard and as far north as V irginia. The annual ad vance has been trom 40 to IGO miles. Under some conditions tho boll weovll is sometimes spread by man through the shipment of cotton and cotton products or ot any commodity -ivlitch originates on the farm. Spread by this means, however, baa been ot Tory little imvortanoe. Tench the chicks to roost early. This can be started when the chicks are about a month old.

Raleigh, Nov. 10.—That oft sounded doctrine of good farming, (‘There is more. in' the man than there is in the land,” preached by Dean B. W. Kilgore of the North Carolina Experiment Station, is again amply confirmed by the ex perience of E. T. Brawley, a far mer of Barringer township in Iredell County who is now con vinced that regardless of how badly a field has been abused it may be brought back to a pro ductive state without great ex pense if legume crops are plant ed. ‘In 1919,” reports District Agent E. S. Millsaps “Mr. Brawley had a badly washed, gullied hillside on his farm. The field was in plain view of the highway and was an eyesore to every one who passed. Mr. Brawley decided to make the field green to the extent that it would not be so oppre-'^sive. He filled the gullies, terraced the field and prepared it for seeding to rye. He also made a light ap plication of limestone. In the spring of 1920, he sowed red clo ver and secured only a scattering stand. This was allowed to fall on the land and make seed for another crop, in the fall of 1921 the field was again sowed- in grain followed by clover the next spring. This time he secured a better stand. He has continued this rotation until today he is se curing a perfect stand of clover over the entire field. and those who pass that wav remark the beauty bf the farm. “WitlT'this expei'ience as a de monstration Mr. Brawley is riow renovating the last of his gullied fields and is putting his farm in excellent shape.

Sweet Potato storage Needs Careful Attention Thanks To The Patriots By this I wish to extend my thanks to the 649 brave men and women who had the courage to vote the Citizen Ticket, and for good governmentiii'Davie County, it being much the largest vote for any ticket cast in Moeksville pre cinct Nov. 4 1924. Total vote cast being 999-649-350 majorities for Citizens. Also to the good crippled lady who fearing she might not get her vote in, had herself placed in a car arid brought to the polls so she might cast her vote for the'Citizens, like a ‘Patriot.” Also to the young voter whom I met, by a drive of more than 50 miles in order (o cast a similar vote. Such people as these will kesp our ccuntry safe. But how about the 300 or 400 who should have done like wise't ut did not? They did not mean tp be “Slackers,” they just let it pass perhaps without realiz ing their responsibility. I hope, and 'believe they .will notdo-this again! We have on the Moeks ville books 1,475, 999voted-476 did not vote. Most all wh# did not vole favored the Citizens ticket, Besides there are nearly 200 more of our folks notregister- ed in Moeksville township. So you see if we put -this all over two years hence. We will have a good majority over the other precincts. All together now and et’sdoit. J a m b s H. Ca in , The Fourth Estate tells an interesting story of the well known drink Coca-Cola which proves cohclusively that when the right man gets in behind a business proposition it generiilly goes. The story, which goes -somewhat intó the history of the Coca-Cola business, is one of gripping interést. Here it is. ^ “The Coca-Cola Company started about 25 or'30 years ago. A chemist down in the South-macle a drink of the cola nut and the cocoa bean and everybody liked it. So he called it ‘Coca-Cola’ and copyrighted the name. He didn’t know then what he was copyrighting. But the governmeiit made him stop selling the drink because it had too much kick in it. Yet everybbody liked it, so he said, ‘I can make the samé thing out of tea and sugar, and they can’t stop me from selling that.’ So he did it.” Charles W. Duncan of San Francisco, told the recent convention of the Oregon State Editorial Association. “And the recipe is on fine in every drug store in the Union.- Anyone can make it and use it; but you cannot call it Coca-Cola. Aná others did make it—^the same thing. —and called it everything they-could think of—^Nola-Nola and such imitations, but people didn’tifall for it. They wanted Coca- Cola—‘Delicious and refreshing.’ So when Mr. Candler got a little extra money, he began to do some advertising—in a newspaper here, a magazine there, and a drug store window—^\vith a pretty poster. He used a pretty girl (that’s the stuff that ge^ everybody). He.always kept the same script—even in the nfews^ paper advertising. And his business grew and soon was'known all over the country. j , “Finally some bankers in New York took notice of it and decided they wanted those profits for themselves. So a group of men formed a syndicate and \yent down to Georgia to see Mr. Candler. They argued with him that he was getting old and had better quit. “But the more he pushed them away, the more they pressed him. Finally he said, ‘Come and see. me in the morning.’ Then he went home. He said to himself, ‘I’ll fix them. I’ll just put the price so high they’ll forget all about wanting to buy this company ’ “In the morning they came ‘ ‘Well, Mr. Candler, what hb^ck. iVe you decided ?’ ‘I will sell youthe Coca-Cola Company for $25,vb0,000.’ And they said” ‘Sold’ before he fairly had the Avords out of his mouth. “ And they took it to New '^ork and sold it for $30,000,000, clearing $5,000,000 for themselves, and it paid $11,000,000 in dividends on a'business whose het assets were,.$480,000. Now what did they buy?—these bankers who don’t believe in adver tising. I’ll tell you what they;did. The^ bought the name and the good-will that extended all over the United States, of an article thataWMibedy^uld mak'e.and us^iinder any other; nam^but Coca- Cola. " ' ............. “Then what did they do? They cancelled every advertising contract just as soon as possible and squeezed it down so that they lost 2,500,000 gallons the first year in sales, and they spent the following year more than twice as much money ih advertising to re-establish their business as they would have had lo carry out their advertising as it had been before their change of policy.” The business man who' can read this and not be convinced that it“ pays to advertise” need never expect to succeed on a big scale. -He may make a bare living but he will never become a big rich, business .man for he is too smalL ,.That’s putting it pretty plainly, but it is not faj from the truth. Don’t you think we are right? ' Raleigh,-Nov. 10.—Building a well planned s-weet potato .‘.stor age house is not all that-is es sential to success in keeping the roots over winter. Storage precautions must be obser.ved. There are many de tails which appear to be of minor importance yet are ; of tremen dous value in successfully keen ing the potatoes. One of the first is to careftilly handle the roots before and after they are placed in storage. Infection by rot producing fungus diseases vakes place largely through ab rasions -in the skin made by handling the roots carelessly. 'It is a good pratica to store graded potatoes in slat crates and then let them lie undisturb ed until they are marketed,” says Glenn 0. Randall, extension horticulturist for the State Col lege of Agriculture, “ There i.i much loss from rotting brought about by sorting the roots from time to time daring the storage period.. The fungus spores-iare spread in this way. ' ‘Careful attention must also be given to regiilating the tem perature. A high temperature of from 80 to 95 degrees during the first ten days or' two weeks is of primary importance. This is the curing period during which time the moisture is removed Tonrthe roots. If the weather is dowdy or rainy, it is necess ary to keep this high temperature for a longer period, ‘After curing the roots, the temperature of the house should be lowered gradually to 55 de grees and kept with in the range of 50 to 55 degrees without great variation. Careful attention to maintain n’ uniform temperature within these limits not only in hibits infection from storage rot, but also prevents undue, loss of weight by the potatoes l^ecause of unnecessarily high tempera ture. .M'TfJEENIEM Now that the election is over, let us get down to business and co-operate with our officials, city,.county, state and national, and make the best of what we have before us. We, who supported the democratic party feel that the country would have been better off \yith a democratic president and a democratic congress, but several millions more believed otherwise. So after all, to a great .extent, the country, the state, the county, the'town is what we make it. We here: in Moeksville and Davie County can’t do much towards revolutionizing the nation, but we can do very, very piuch towards making Moeksville and Davie County a better place in which to live. .Let’s go! Mr. Merchant, forget politics and remember that November and December are the b|g business months.' Get ready for: it. and remember that thé best way to commence getting ready is to see, your home newspaper and make a contract for a good:sized lot of regular newspaper advertising. A Message To The Baptist The Baptists of this State and of the South are now on the last lap of their 75 Million Campaign which was launched five, years ago and which has proven to be a breaih of life to all the institu tions fostered ¿y that denomina tion at home and aljroad. In a far more adequate way than ever before, as a result of the cam- paig'n, the Baptists have been able to take cai’e ot their State, Home and Foreign Mission work, their colleges and schools, their orphanages and. hospitals, and their aged and infirm ministers. During this five year period the growth of the denomination has been phenominal, having baptiz ed a million new converts in the Southland, 100,000 of them in North Carolina, and having in- crease'd the membership on the foreign fields more than 100 per cent. North Carolina Baptists have set for themselves the task of raising more than a million dol- lors from how'until DecemberSl, when the 75 Million Campaign will end and, the new 1925 Pro gram will begin. To that end every Baptist church is baing or-;, ganized out to the last man. The week of Npvember 23-30 has been designated “ Completion Week,” when a heroic effort will be.made to give every individual Baptist |n the State a chance to du his best to help finish the task in’a worthy way. The week followr ing, November'30 to December 7, the same “ Victory Teams” will go afield again to get pledges for the 1925 Program. A million dol lars, exclusive of what will be given to the’O.rphanage, is the goal set for North Carolina Bap tists for the next year, this is to be divided equally between State wide and South-wide interests, 'ihe objective sought, which it is believed would insure the con tinued success of all. the causes fostered, is, “Every member con tributinguvery week to every cause according to his ability. ” ' . , J.

Four years ago the Republicans found themselves with a deficit of $1,т 600,000 at the close of the cam paign and took them nearly four years to pay it off.. This year more than 80,000 contributors gave about four million toward the campaign.

Carolina as told t y French S r - ther in The World’s Work di-av. a the ¡magination like a magnet, i-o fascinating are his pictures ofthe progress of its people in thy last .quarter of a cuniury. Many a man looking at a map of North Carolina, with Pamlico SDund and the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the towering Appalachian range in the west, so that it is blessed with every climate of the temperate zone, has envied its inhabitants their natural advan tages. What a State to be born in and to work and play in, where the Summer heats can always be escaped by hiding, to the mountain forests, where the Winters are mild and short, and where the soil yields of ils abundtsnce and the sea and its lagoons of tlieir teeming fish and game! But to North Carolina’s natural weallh the.energy and industry of i's people have added taxable ma- ^terial wealth, with the result that cities have sprung up from back- wood s settlements, straggling villages- have become handsome towns; modern highways havu been constructed' f ri*m sea to mountains, and where \verepover ty and privation not many years ago are now plenty and luxury. In brief, North Carolina haa risen fpom the rains of the Civil War to an almost incredible prosperity. Her people owe much to the iil- spired leadership of Charles B Aycosk, who served them a s - Governor and died full of honors twelve years ago. He had been *'a plowboy on a ved-clay farm, his family of no consequence. ” -His fiirst passion when he grew to manhood was schools. ; He “drop ped dead.in the middle of a sen tence in a famous speech on 'uni- ; versal education.” Mr. Strother speaks of Aycpck as “perhaps the greatest orator (¡North Carolina has produced,-as; , well as pne of its sweetest spix'ita and bravest men.” No mjin’s epigrams were more stitiiulaung. He declared that democracy cannot be - built on the backs of ignorant men.” Others who help ed North Carolina to see ‘‘her dreams come true” - were Edwin A, Alderman and Walter Hines Page.. Tho latter’s inspirational , speech on “The Forgotten Man” was read and is treasured by thousands of North Carolinians. W'ell known also is his book “The Rebuilding of .old Common wealths.” Such. cultivators of natural retources as the Dukes contribuled powerfully lo tlie pro gress of the state.

' vvMOCKSVILLE, N. C., THURSDAY, DEC. 4. 1924 GiWING UND MARKEtlNG Fifty-One Points in North Carolina Where The ' Weed Is Now Sold The Market Facilities Buy Christmas Seals 7* (C. J. Roberts, in the Dispatch) Probably no tobacco-growing state of the Union is so amply provided with convenient market ing centers as North Carolina. There are fifty-ope or more mar kets, all strategically located with regard to the tobacco-producing areas. The world's largest manu facturers of tobacco maintain buy ers at these half hundred or more meccas of .“leal” b^artcr trade. The better known concerns who bid on North Carolina warehouse floors are; The American Tobac co Company, the R. J. Reynolds Tobacdo Compahy, the Lorillard, and a number pf .exporters, in- eluding, the British-American Tobacco Compahy and many others of lesssr note. The larger markets are situated at Durham, Goldsboro, Greenville, Hender son, Kinston, Oxford,. Roxboro, Rocky Mount, Winston-Salem and WilHamstoa. Wilson, center of the "bright belt,” is the largest market for bright tobacco in the world. Tobacco was one of the first staples produced in this country and North Carolina nas, after Virginia, the leading unit of pro duction in the provincial crops of the country’fl early hifltory; Añte- bellumplatations in tobacco-grow ing localities gave up much of their acreage to cultivatipn of the golden leaf but, owing to the generally disorgrnized agricul- tural conditions following the Civil War, the industry suffered a marked decline in both scope and quality. There are thousands of acres of choice tobacco-produc ing lands in the eastern counties which were obtainable after the cessation bf hostilities between the states at one dollar per acre, which are now turning out yearly crops of large proportions to their owners. But not by any means are all North Carolina's leaf-pro ducing soils, yet cultivated to maximum possibilities, for there atill remain tracts in the more re mote sections of rare fertility which are available to the’ grow er at terms out of proportion to the potential richness. A light and sandy soil is neces sary for thegrowingof high-grade tobacco, and this boon a kind na ture has conferred upon appruxi- tnately half of the counties in the state. With the exception of the requisites for cigar manufacture, almost every grade of leaf ia capable of production in the state. Some twenty-five years ago Was discovered that the region east of Durham, the present “bright belt,” was admirably adapted to the growth of a light er grade of tobacco, suitable for manufacture into granulated cut and cigarettes. The result has been a remarkably quickening o tobacco cultivation in this part oi the state; Coincident with the discovery of the bright grades as an Old North state aaset( there came the establishment of many additional manufacturing plan for the utilization of the milder Quality of leaf. Then Penn fac tories in Reidsville and the Amen' can Tobacco. Company's plant Durham were among the first ex potients of bright leaf manufac- ure. Wrappers from this grade of (Continued on page two) 30,000 Christmas Seals have just been received by Mrs. R< P. Anderson, chairman for Mocks ville. The 1924 seal iathemost artis tic ever produced , in all. the 17 years during ■which the annual Seal Sale has become a recogniz ed and popular institution. It is done in béautifuí shades of red, blue, and gold. It is printed on better paper than ever before. The adhesive material on the back is more efficient and the .Seals are guaranteed to stick where put. The color process is a perfect lithographing job. The seals are so artistic as to be the equal óf aiiy commercial Seal ever put bn the market and advertising experts declare that they should sell readily merely for their decor§itive value. The design contains the words "Health, Christmas. 1924.” The red double barred cross on a wiiite shield bordered in red sym bolizes the world wide inovement for the prevention of tuberculosis in which are enrolleid the inter- I national Union against Tubercu losis, the National Tuberculosis Association, 48 state associations, and about 2, ООО local associations. This campaign has resulted in a saving of millions of lives through out the world, and in the United States alone has effected a re duction of the death rate in the past 15 years from 202 per hun dred thousand to 97. This is the great life-saving work in which the local association at Mocksville isa participant. At the leftiof.-Üie Seal there ia a woman’s figure clad in gold drapery .holdings aloft a torch which symbolizes, the hope that has been brought to mankind through the successful efforts of .he public health movement-a message to the ill that tuberculios can be cured and to the well that it can be prevented. The word "Health” on the Seal indicates the enlargement of the tuberculosis movement into a general work for the betterment of public health in all directions. The health program is based on the theory that any educational effort or . sanitary measure that tends to improve general health conditions or to prevent any form of disease, lends to the eradica tion of tuberculosis. The quota of Seals for North Carolina, 15 million, which is be ing distributed to county and local chairman by the North Carolina Tuberc-Uosis Association, if placed side by side would extend from Asheville to Raleigh. An Administration Without A Lynching. The Court Passes On Rebate Question. Avoid Accidents During The Hunting Season Nation To Pay Tribute To Wilson December 15: Governor Morrison did the right thing the other day when he called out the state guard at New Bern to protect a negro from a mob that had gathered around the jail, threatening the life of a negro, who had driven his car over a. littlè. Craven county girl. The Morriáon administration has not yet been marred by,a single lynchirig, and let us hope that during the remaining days of the present administration we shall not have à lynching in thjs state. We should like to see at least one four years pass, in North Car ogna without a single lynching,! ' The recent decisioii of the Supreme Court in the tobacco tax reduction -case, leaves, a great big question úhsettled,' the very question involved when the suit wás brought to recover the rebate given by the state tax commisálon, to American- Tobacco Compahy and Leggett & Myers Tobacco Company, f ' : " - , As we undérstànd it, the property of these cbmpahieá was assessed and . then the assessment ráised„ >The companies paid their taxes as assessed, but later a largè rebate was made by Tax Commissioner Watts, Citizens of Durham County protested aiid brought suit to-recover the rebate, on the grounds that the rebate vvas not authorized by law. The defendant tobacco companies took the position that the raisé ih assessment’in thè begihning was unlawful, and that, therei^re, even though Commissioner Watts was not authorized to give the rebá té, ÿét thè rebate having répresénted the aniourit of the raise, from, the first assess ment, it could hot be recoveréd; As : we undewtand-the court’s decision from reading the new^aper reports, the court held that the first ráise was unauthorized, ^but did not pass ion the right of Commissioner Watts to allow thj^ rebate. - So the'companies: atill have their reba.te in their pockets and the question is stilliún- settled..-, • v:. ' The hunting season is now here. Many, persons are hurt by accidents nearly every year while hunting. This'being the case, we think thé following timely ad-yice from the Progressive Farmer is worth passing along. Says that paper : ''"Some time ago I read thatf over 300'persons were killed and 1,500 hurt in this country^last year by .shooting apcideiits. You may be surprised to know that 70 out of every 100 ofvthe persons, killed or hurt were iío'y'á below twènty-ohé years of age; Most of these accidents weio due to carelessness' and not knowing how to handle the gun. Therefore, am going to give you some rules about hunting and handling a gun which all experienced hunters foltow. ' :•“1. -Do not load your gun until you'^et to your hunting place and be siire to unload it wheii you have finished hunting. By all means do not carry a loadéd gun in the house. Do. not think that tliegon 13 UTiloaded, but KNOW it.“2.- -Put your/gun-in your. a«tomobileí¿buggy>^-wagon,.,o.E;'bóat so that it can be pulled but by the butt with;.the muzzle away from you. A larige number of accidents are caused by thé hunter drawing the muzzle of the gun toward him. Remember that the only time a muzzle is safe is when it is pointing away from you."3. Never, climb a fence, cross a stream on a log,~or climb a tree with your gun loaded. When reaching a.iehcë the gun should be placed on thé ground I with thé butt nearest the lowest rail or strand Wire. After climbing over thè fencéyou can pull the'gun through with the butt end fîîst. " ^ .“4, Many accidents are caused by the hunter stumbling, thereby oausjng the gun, to fire. The first thing to remember if you should stumble is to swing the point of the gun in the direction it will do least harm.“5. If you should have occasion to stop when you are hunt ing do not rest the gun against a tree or clump of bushes. Put it flat on the ground,—^Uncle P, F,, in The Progressive; Farmer.” The Farmer of the Future $500,000 Per Year For The Presbyterians The Equipment Fund is set up by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the Unit ed States to cover a ten year per iod and the plan is to raise $500, ООО per year.

Late Fall Work In The Apple Orchard Raleigh, Dec.l—After the packing and snipping season is over, the orchadist should direct his attention to cleaning up the orchad, make preparation for fall spraying, if the infestation of San Jose Scale is very serious, and get his pruning tools in condition. "In this cleaning up program it is good practice to cleanaway all rubish around the base of each tree,” says^ H.R. NiaWonger, Extension Horticulturistfor State College in Western North Caro lina, "Field mice seek winter hi bernation wherever there is an accumulation of grass or weeds. Those rodents spend their time in gnawing and girding the body near and under the ground. Many orchad men also scrape the loose flakes of bark from the trunk and large branches of the bearing trees as these places har bor many insects through the winter; This is particularly true of the codling moth., when this bark is scraped off many of the scab infection, in his orchad this year.

Run down dilapidated buildings do not make the farm look like a place of op- pbrtiinity. They are depreping and unconsciously help to dissat isfy a boy with farm life, Priend- .ships'have been formed in town or,c|ty ahdhe wants these people ■to have a good opinion of his honie These geherally Unrealized truths are graphically, broght out in a report i list compiled from thbus- andslof interviews with farmers aiid extension workers.' ' À recent survey of the Unitéd States Agricultural Department found that 47 per cent of the farm- children in the northern states are not stopping until they have had a high school or a col lege education. In the southern states'the percentage of children strivipg for better education is 26 per cent, while still another survèÿ in Iowa shows that 54.1 !per'cent of the distinguished high scdoot' jjupils'are farm childran."^ Many centralized schools have been established during the last few years, and these are most important influences in the better education of country children. Friendships are formed which are maintained after graduation. These add greatly to the social life of ruralpeople—with aconse- quent desire tor more attractive farm homes. The abandonment of the little country school houses and the transportation of the f^rm chil dren to graded schools in the center of consolidated «chool di^ tricts, have been important in fluences in the better education of these children. But school training ia the least part of educa tion. Far more significant.than anything the school can do is the unconsciously exerted influence of the surroundings in which a child lives. Tbe importance of iresh paint, both inside and out side of the house, with resultant cleanliness and order, cannot be over estimated in the formation of character. No amoun t of preaching will counteract the in fluence of dingy, dirty, obvious ly neglected surroundings. The farmer’s wife and children are keenly alive to the importance of paint.. A fresh coat of paint on the outside of the house, and well painted furniture and interiors transform a dull place into one of much attractivenesBi Unpainted farmhouses dull the finer feelings and make life needlessly dreary. The children of today will be the farmers" tomorrow. Where thé buildings on a farm are well painted there is a natural tendency to keep the rest of the farm in good shape, and a farm in which a boy can take some pride will inspire him to make farming his life- work. There is a definite need for mcrfe and better farmers. The National Bureau of Econo mic Research reports that the population of the United States increased 1,943,000 during 1923, an increase of nearly 2 per cent in a year.

The tests report- . ed qn by Mr. Moss were begun in 1920and carried on for four years. In making the experiment, the tpbbaco was planted in plots and was fertilized, cultivated and ' cared for in the.same manlier eactí : i year. The only-difference in the Pi : treatment was that ohe. half off-, ; the plots waslitnedand the other\-1 half was not. The results show. , that during tLei four years, the unlimedacrë made a tptail yield'of 2,977,46 pounds with a .value of ^72.7Ì2. The average: yield for ; each year was 744^. 36 pounds of fj cured weed per acre with an avr - erag<i value, each year, of $118i ‘ Í 18 per acre. .. . ; Por the liined half of the plots a total yield per acre of, 3,675,52 pounds of cured weed, was secur-’ ; ed for the four yearâ with a value > of$696,01. The average yearly , yield was 918.88 poi^nds: per acre with avalué of$i74.00. v These figures show that liming " a will pay good returns. Mr. Moss i ;• broadcasted the ground limestone : I using about 2000 pounds peracre.' The total yields would probably have been larger were it not for :î, the fact that different fertilizer • ■ mixtures were used on the differ- ^ ent plots resulting in low yields , i where incomplete mixtures were applied.
