One Dollar enrolls you in the Legion of Savers. It is a much more difficult task to stop saving after you have formed the habit. The money «you save is never missed. You learn to get along without it, and have the added satisfaction of knowing that you are traveling the road to success. You’ll never know how easy it is to save a certain de­ finite amount until the happy day when your pass book shows that you have gained your goal. Then you’re amazed at the rapidity with which small amounts have grown into bigger ones. Come in now and start a Savings Account.

It has been said of North Car­ olina farmers that they have everynatural facility for live.stock growing except a knowledge of how to feed. In this thpy are ex­ celled by their western brethren, , Now they are learing how to feed and learning rapidly and late facta of better feeding áre being determined by , a sm^il griéup of men working on'nutritioh, ques­ tions ih the Animi?.l2,ln4u8try Dl- vision, , Peanuts and soybeans are two of !;glreat crops for feeding hogs in North Carolina. How tti feed these crops and still not prodiiue a soft-bodied animal for market has engrossed the attention of men ‘ like Earl Hostetler, Dr. J. 0. Halversim, and W. W. Sliny for a long time. Ligiit is being shed on this question by recent tests, the peanut will have a softening effect on the carcasses of tne young pigs, finds Hostetler and Halverson. But , another teat ' shows that feeding such rations as corn, digester tanlwga anJ ripe products will harden these bodies sufRdently to pass tiie , market requirements. ^ . Prof. R.,S.

Fred Anderson started in busi­ ness there with a capital of ^,000 with $2,200 of that borrowed. That was in 1VIQ6, He started in a little frame building. Last year he did a business of |300,ООО and his store now contains 3,700 square feet'of space. .The first ten years he did little or no advertiiing and just drag­ ged along. Then he. started ad­ vertising in the local paper. He has been at it.every year and his business has'grown steadily to its present ргорогЫрщШе gives all the credit to advertising; Last year he spent 'one*half per cent of his income fpir advertising. He says, he coiijd afford to spend twice that much. He has a duplicating machine and does lots of,; direct-by-mail advertising and he improves any and every opportunity for keeping his store before the public. He never'uses less than a page ad, sometimes several pages in the same issue. He says .he has bought the local paper many times but never got a title to it. But he doesn’t want the title.becanse it serves him so well as it is. The Rosenbaum store in Har­ vard, Neb., another 1,300 tov?n, is an. example of what can be done by giving the public what it wants and doing enough ad vertit- ing to make the facts known. Harvard is within easy driving distance of four or five larger tovi^ns, one of 60,000, one or two pi 12.0Q0 or more and . othep much' larger that it is, but this store draws the trade for 50 milee or more, These stores have, proved that it is just as easy to follow the good roads in a Ford to a small town as a liarge one, provided the small town goes after business. Mr. Anderson pays that what they have done anyone can do by fol­ lowing- the same methods. He says a merchant is justified in spending 6 per cent of his income for advertising while he is start­ ing. But no small town will ever get any placo by bemoaning the fact that all the businesB is going to the big towns and then doing nothing to, prevent it. stations; is' also being studied by Hostetler.

' We stand face to face with a new year. The wise business man takes careful stock of his «issets and considers his liabilities. In this way he is able to measure tolerably accurately his pos­ sibilities for the future. Whatever failures and disappointments the old year may have measured w t to us should be forgotten, or remembered only in so mudh-as ihey may aid us in avoiding like mistakes in the future. Vain, regrets are worse than useless, since they detract our attehtioji, sap.our strength and unfit us for new duties. Whatever battles we may have lost, let ua not be depressed, but turning our faces to the future and our hiinda to future duties, measure bui* capacity by. the rule ,df pracflpl reason, and push ahead. Some things in the past-may seem very lamentable, yet the game cock, fcibl bird that IHe is, never- allows the; effects of the licking he received yesterday to-lesseh his cour­ age tomorrow. The future holds too much of interest! There are too many calls to dtiiy out there to allow past failures a place in our lives. Let us turn to our new field of duty with Christian f«ith and manly courage, determined to forget" any and every tíiing that absorbs our energy and detracts from our efficiency. Let us take stock of our faith in men,,and above all, in God, for the more 'yre learn of God’s law and máií's limitations^ the brighter will the way become. The more we rely on God’s guidance and thé more fully we become subject to His ^idance, the greater the things we may do. There are greater things to be doné than .¡have ever yet been accomplished, and who can say to what* pinnacles Ôf AvisdomiHe will lead us, if we follow meekly, yet unfalteringly? Who can say what wonders we may search out, for it is written how things that are done in secret shall be revealed on №e house­ tops, also no good thiiig will He with-hold from them that love Him. What will the young year bring as it progresses ? To be sure it will turn in a few discoveries before which we will stand in wonder. The year is ahead of'us. It is a new year. It will be a wonderful year. Let us each resolve to do his little part, and let us all work together as, the fingers on a hand with a singlé aim.-■ " . ■ .i:-- ' It is culcate less/yet, . . _ _____ ears, they will grow into théir very lives.'as a scar on à healthy young sapling is healed over and lies coricealed at iist in the heart of the great oak.

'' The manufacturers of a hew process of weaving artificial silk materials, an industry started long before the war, are now banking fatted dividends because the giris in the shops and offices, and even schoolá, aré; ho longer content to wear the stockings and cotton blouses which they display­ ed before; and throughout the war.

State College, finds from one of his démonstration this year that thirty bushels of corn per acre was made on wet land where clover wasplbwed underaa against five bushels per acre bn similar land that hhd no clover. Both fields were fertilized with 400 pounds of aoid phosphate and the one with no çlovér plowed receiv­ ed an additibnal applicatioh of 50 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre. The great difference in yield v,’as caused by the land being yery wét. The inorganic fertiliz­ er was leached out while that supplied by the clover was retain­ ed in the soil, The clover also helped in giving air to the soil and in promoting better drainage. Mr. Blair says, “The demonstra­ tion was on the farm of E. L. Gre^n in Bladen County. County Agent J. R. Powell had charge of the work. The clover was plant­ ed on two acres in 1923. In 1924, it was plowed under and ;corh planted. The corn oh these two acres and over the remainder of the field received 400 pounds of 16 per cent acid phosphate per acre, Where no clover was plow­ ed under an additional; application of 50 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre was us^d.

' Economy is the thing we need to practice, fiow ' ever, there may be danger of uf. carrying the thing too far. We - may talk retrenchment and econ­ omy to the point \vhere we lose our head4 and make it penury instead of economy. That would be a very dangerous thing for ■ iiorth Carolina to do just now. W6 have spent millions laying sthe foundntian Гог а great civili­ zation, and now, while we must be economical, \ve must spend enough to iinish the structure, Otherwise a large part of the cost of the foundation is wasted. Let . UB not retrench, when it .comes to carrying out our great educa­ tional program and our pubiic vhealth and road campaigns. Let's not. lose our heads. V-i' The season of the small boy with the riilo ishow here. Many "pafents presenied their boys with riflea for Christmas presenta, a very foolish thing, we think, for 1 one to do. Foolish because it. '' often mcanatheinjuryof the boy Í. or Bome one else, Even diiring ' the holidays a little girl was shot "and killed while skating on one of ^he main streets of Salisbury. Some small boy with his rifle is .1 believed to be the person respon- ' sible. Uecently t h e Gastonia , ■ Gazette commented on the "Small .' Boy.and Hia Rifle.” The Concord r Tribune made reference to the Gazette's edi lorial and added this : further comment: "The Gastonia Gazette says :"nearly every day protest come : V. to this oiflce about boys shooting their riflus in various parts of the 'city," and that paper adds the auggestion that in such cases the , parents 0Í the boys and the police should bo notified. VVe have noticed here t h a t many of the young.stors go about the streets witti their rifles, shoot­ ing at birds, po-ts ' and other .objects that strike their eyes. . The practice is a very dangerous one; and should not be alloweii. ' As the Gazetta ..says ..further.,, the. trouble in this case' “as is usually the case with most of the trouble with the younger gene­ ration thtae days, the fault lies with-the parents, in the first place, a parent bought the gun, and in the second place, said parents know and care nothing of the v/hereaLouts of (heir off­ spring when they are not in schot 1 or at h(uhe. ■The Gazette, is right. If p u-- ehts kept up with their boys the latter ,woul.i not gat into so much trouble. And the boy who ha^ . beed givtiii a i'iílü should be close­ ly'watcht'd. In most in.stance6 he has not reached the age of discretion, dtiBpite the fact ihat he should havo, and he is i.oc as careful a.i hj should be.

Then every­ body knows, or ought to ktiow, that a newspaper ,is the greatest servant to the public of any other institution in the community in which it is published.: Did you ever hear of a newspaper man gettingrich? Do newspaper folks ordinarily make the money that cotton mills, merchants, banks and o th er businesses make? Everybody know they donot. And yet, there seems to be a certain gang around ourlawmaking bodies who are exceedingly vigilent to try to get laws passed regulating newspaper charges for advertís ing. Just this session of congress some fellow decided he wanted to make newspapers pay out a little more for postage. The bill to ncrease the rates was snowed under, however. Now, they say. an effort will be made in the General Assembly of this state now in session, to regulate the charges of newspapers for legal advertisements. Great Scott! The a veraee newspaper publisher will rankly tell you that he even now doesn’t realize on an average one lalf as much'for legal adversise- ments as he does for commercial advertising. And yet, some guy thinks we ought to be regulated by law. Well, if the average man whohandsinan ad will sgree to pay cash in advance for his advertising, or if the General As­ sembly will providé for a reduc­ tion of tho rates and couple with the provision for r e d u c t i o n a clause providing that all legal, ad vertisements must be paid for in advance, or that it shall be penete'ntiary offense to refuse to pay for a legal advertisement, we say if the General Assembly will do this, then we are willing to let t pass a law reducing the rates charged to one third of what it is now.

Only stata-wide bills last night constituted the .first stroke for economy that has taken definite shape thissca^on While it dues not effect the entire state it affects , people from all parts of the state, that is the attaches of the General •Aesembly.

Farm Census Now Being Made German Colonists Are, Coming Ï 0 America. 'In every township of North Carolina there is a census enum­ erator asking farmers for much detailed information about their last year’s farm operations. For fear some do nut understand this some explanations are offered herewith; “This information is being col­ lected from every farm in the United States. It is required by law, Each farmer is expected to tell the enumerators as near the truth as they can tell, all the in formation asked for. A penalty is provided for those who refuse. It has nothing to do with any taxation. It is for statistical pur­ poses and use only. It is strictly confindentâil. The records are burned,-only unidentified data is left. It is solely for thé bene fit of ihe farmers’ interests Every farmer, whether land­ lord, tenant or cropper, should be interested, because it gives facts that lead to a proper understand-, ing of actual conditions, (provid­ ed fariTiers answèr truthfully un- derestimationaandomissions work to their disadvantage.) This census is being taken primarily for the benefit of the farmers. The information is used for statistical purposes and is con­ fidential. Farmers should be will­ ing and glad to give the informa­ tion completely, fairly and ac curately. (How else can their proljlems be studied and solved?) This information has nothing to do with taxation of any kind. It is for the benefit of farmers and for the advancement of the agricultural industry." Paris, Jan. 13-Representa­ tives of the United States, for the first time, since'America’s'failure to ratify the Versaiiles treaty, are about to sigh an interallied agree­ ment, the object of ^hich is to fix and divide'German reparation payments. ' Instead of observers the Ameri- ciins now became active partici­ pants in the Hettlei^ent of the situation arising out of the peace of Versailles, which is said here to be the most important result attained at the interallied,finan­ cial conference Which is due to close today. The co-operation of the United States is regarded paVttciilarly by French circles as- constituting, a new and iniportant factor, which may have weighty'consetjiiences in the future, both morally atid materially, thembrie so, as one of the negotiators.

Kernansville, Jan. 19.—By al­ lowing 42 pigs to make hogs oi' themselves by grazing down nine acres of corn and soybeans and then feeding them to a finish ac­ cording to the directions of R. W. Pou, County Agent in Forsythe County, W. C. Michael of Ken- ansville made a net profit after deducting the cost of all feeds, of $552.90. In explaining his success with ,the bunch of pigs, Mr.. Michael says, "First they hogged off nine acres of corn and soybeans and I then fed them to. a finibh using 220 bushels of corn, 25 bushels of wheat and 1000 pounds of fish meal. Part of the corn was ground the wheat was ground and Imix- e_d corn meal, wheat meal and fish meal tpgethor, feeding it. in a slop mixture. "The pigs.averaged about eight months old when killedand weigh­ ed a total of G,511 pounds. Sell­ ing the pork at 15 1-2 cents per pound brought me $1,009.20; tht lard and livers were worth about $45.20, making a totàl of $1055 40; The total cost of feed given after taking the pigs from the corn and soybeans was $349,50 which left a profit of $705.90. I figured the corn and soybeans to be worth $17 per acre or nine acres to be worth $153. This, when deduct­ ed from $705.90, left me a net' .pt.o.at oi.$952,S0 sK-the work and allowed me to sell my corn and soybeans through (he hogs, at a good price.” Mr. Pou states that this grower is enthusiastic about his venture into the hog feeding game and that the success attending his efl;ortf has attracted much at­ tention in the community.

Mtin who are feeding corn at its present high price are entitled to know why the specialists of the State College of Agriculture be­ lieve this to be true. “On the assumption that, as usual, following the short crop and high price of corn, the plant­ ing of that-.grain will be heavy next spring", we may confidenUy expect a heavy crop next fall, if the'season is favorable, ” says W.'

If that occurs, aiid the law of supply and' demand continues to :fudction,of we are justified in be lieving it will, a year from now the price of corn in North Caro­ lina may be as iow as 75 cents per bushel,—I use the figures for convenience in illustrating apoint. It may be changed . to $1.00 per bushel, Hoga, properly fed, selling at the faim for $9.00 per 10Ò pounds will return $1.80 per bushel for the corn they eat in making gains from'the weight of thirty-five pounds to the desirable weight ot 200 pounds, “If, charging $5.00 per day for man and team, andotherexpenses at cost, a farmer can produce a bushel of corn at a cost of seventy cents, and he sells it; for 1^1.00 his profit is thirty tenta per bushel if’lie sells it to his hogs for $1,30 his profit is doubléd. ' ‘If the market price is 75 cent,^ and he sells it as. corn his profit ia five, cents per bushel. ‘.‘If the price of hogs holds and he sells it as pork his profit is sixty cents per bushel--or twelve times as much as through selling it as.corn.

Ralejgh, Jan. 19-Since the Farmers’ Federation of Western North Carolina was organized fivo years ggo, it has paid to its stock­ holders over $57,000 in dividend. Last season it paid over $5,000 to 1,400 stockholders and never, since it was organized, has i¡ failed to pay dividends both on iis common and preferred stock, eports George R. Ross, Chief of the,State Division of Markets, Mr. Ross says, "Few organiza- tioná of farn^er's in this or an') other southern state have achiev­ ed the conspicuous success of this association and it might serve as an example to farmers in other sections as to what hiight be ac coinplished by cooperation when kept purely on a business basis.'”' The association has adopted a s'ogan of "Increased prodtiction of iiiottí and bei;ter cash crops for next season,”' The State Division of Markets urges that those who shipdressed poultry take pains to prepare the hens carefully and ship in good containers. The division has se­ cured the latest information on low to prepare poultry for mar- cet and will be glad to furnish this information to anyone deair- ng it.

C., THURSDAY, JAN. 29, 1925 NO. 13 Leon Cash, Grand Master of North Carolina Grand Lodge ШЩ ййШШ The following was taken from i the Twin-City Sentinel of la s t i Friday and will be of much in­ terest to Enterprise readers! Leon Cash, one of the best known and most highly esteem­ ed Masons in North Cavolina, was elected grand master of the North Carolina Grand Lodge, A. F. and A. M. in session at Raleigh. His election to this, the highest office in the power oi the body, was not unexpected, as He has steadily advanced from the ranks to the elevated positions in tho order and has served with unfailing success inevery detail. In naming the Winston-Salem Mason as pre Bidingofficerof the order in North Carolina recognition was given his service and the members enter the new year under hia direction with keen anticipation of a most successful season. The Masonic life of Mr, Cash has been one of unusual success. For tho past 33 years he has given every thought to the interests of the order and has untiringly work­ ed that the purposes of the order might be advanced. To him be­ longs the peculiar distinction of having served as worshipful mas­ ter of tnree aeperate lodges, and, so far as is known, he is the only Mason in thestiite whohaaachiev- ed this position. Mr. Gash was raised in Farm­ ington lodge, No, 205, in 1892, He was senoir warden from Dec­ ember, 1892, until December, 1893, at woich time h e was elected worsihipful master, serving until 1896. Upon moving to Winston- Salem Mr; Cash transferred his membership to Salem lodge No. 239, this being in February, 1897. In December of that year he was elected worshipful master and filled this office for two 'terms, For several years thereafter he served Salem lodge as secretary. In February, 1903, Mr. Cash again moved his membership, this time becoming associated with Win­ ston lodge No. 167, On June 27, 1918, he was chosen worshipful master, serving for one year. He has been sscretary of the lodge since 1909. Mr. Cash was appointed grand sword bearer in 1918, at which time George S. Norfleet, of this I city, was grand master, and has since made steady advancement in :the offices of thé grand Ibd go. He-has been a member of the board of custodians of the grand lodge since January Ï2 ,1905, and has served as secretary of that board during the entire time. His term of.office expires this week, and it is his duty to appoint his successor. .As member of the committee on necrology, Mr. Cash this week read the record of de­ ceased members of the Grand Lodge for the fourteenth time in fifteen years. He was orevented from giving the report one year, being detained in Arkansas on account of ill health. He is also a member of the educational and Masonic anti Eastern Star home committees. -'V'' ■ Mr.' Cash's fraternal associa­ tions include the following: Win- ston lodge No. 167Î A, F. and A. M, ; • Winslbn commandery No. 24 R1 A. M. ', Zabud council No. 16, R. and S, M. ; Piedmont command­ ery No. 6, K, T. ; Winston-Salem LoÜ ge qiE Per feet ion ; Oasis teinple , Ai'A.’ 0^ N. M.

He was born at Smith Grove on June G, 1886. His ed­ ucation was received in the com­ mon gchool of Davie county and the high schools of Davie, Gaston and Lincoln counties. Whlie not a college graduate he completed a college course under Prof. James F, Brower, who was his instructor at the Davie high schoo and Mr, Gash accompanied him as he took up work in other coun ties, During his period of study ing he also taught in the schools of Gaston, Lincoln and Davie, He began hi« career of teaching at the age of 16 and continued for 27 years. For six years he was a member of the faculty at the Salem boy's school, and.aerved as principle of the North graded school for eight years. For sev­ eral years he was superintendent of the schools of Davie county Severing his connection with North school in 1909, Mr. Cash became office manager for the Forsythe Chair company for four years. In 1913 he was named Auditor of Forsythe county, and held this position for severa years, becoming identified with the Standard Building and Loan association on April I, W20. He s at present secretary of tho as­ sociation. In December, 1920, Mr, Cash was elected a member of the board of county commis­ sioners of Forsythe county, but 11 health necessitated his resign­ ation from these duties at the end of a year. The grand master is a member of Centenary Methodist church, iS district steward, and for a good many years has hold membership n the Western North Carolina annual conference. He is also a member, of the board oi church extension, .. Mr, Cash was married in 1888 to Miss Fannie Hartsell, daugh­ ter of Rev, J. C. Hartseli, of the Westean North Carolina Metho­ dist conference. He is the father of five children. Mr Cash is the possessor^ of traits of character that immediat­ ely make friends of all acquaint­ ances. In his Masonic endeavors he has traveled thruout the state and he is one of the most widely known members of the order in thè aorhaVtii ' He is cbhsidèréd ah authority on Masonic law and his opinion IS highly regarded. Grand Master Cash enters upon his new dutie.M and responsibilities with the best wishes of a 'circleof friends that includes every mem­ ber of the Masonic order in North Carolina, and many friends who are not identified with the frater­ nity, and his past record is an as­ surance of the success which will attend hia administration during 1925. Would Finish Our Roads—Primary Here To Stay—An Example of Economy—Our Tribute To Carelessness—True Greatness Recognized —An “Antiquated System”—Price’s Friends Boost Him For Judge—A Day of Young Men The General Assembly, proposes a bill to appropriate thirty- would hardly be enough, but would, it is believed, practically con- five million dollars to complete our state highway system. That nect up tho broken links in most sections. We need fine high ways. Good roads are one thing that cost the folks nothing, un less they own an automobile, and if we believe the statement figured out by Frank Page, we must admit that our good road.s cost nothing. We hope the bill will pass, as it no doubt will. We .should keep on building roads until our system is complete. Another would bo autocrat introduces a bill in the General ■Assembly designed to abolish the state wide primary. He would; therefore, say to the average democrat, “You haven't sense ert ough to know how to vote in youi* state primary, and, therefore, your power should be taken from you and lodged in the hands of some political boss,” But the state wide primary is here to stay, and tins bill will meet tho same fate which similar ones have in the past. The average democrat knows how to vote in the selec­ tion of candidates for Ihis party, and he will insist upon I'etaining £i say-so in naming the democratic nominees. Ever notice the blue stripe in the United States mail sacks. Well some time ago a young fellow commenced to wonder why it was there. He asked a number of postal authorities about it, and none seemed to know. The investigation which he instigated, dis­ closed that, while no one seemed to know why the mail sacks had a blue stripe, it did cost the government millions of dollars. The blue stripe was ordered cut out. Watch the new mail bags. Who bad that blue stripe put in the United States mail bags? We don’t know, but wo would wager any amount red handed graft was at the bottom of it. One hundred and thirty automobiles and eleven horses, to­ gether with a lot of other property, were destroyed by a fire in Raleigh one day last week. Maybe the fire was the result of care­ lessness on the part of some one. What a tax in lives and property^ we do pay to carelessness. What do you know about this? The United States govern­ ment has started tho coining of a large’ number of (half dollars bearing the image and superscription of> General Robert E. Lee. And half a ccntury ago most people north of the Mason and Dixon line swore Lee was a traitor to tho United States. What a change I It proves that the Civil War is a thing of history and that this great republic once more stands united, yes, united in stronger bonds than ever before since its establishment in 1776. It pi’oves, too, that sooner or later the truth will triumph, and that great souls can not always remain buried from favorable recognition by civilization, Lee was a brave, a true, a noble soul. The South knew it all the while. Now the North recognizes the fact. Governor McLean in his message to the General Assembly sounds the keynote of economy and common sense. Ho deplores the ever rising cost of government and attributes it largely to our “antiquated system,” He would cut and curtail our bureaus, com­ missions, departments and agencies, more than 75 in all. He thinks we have too much red tape in our state administration. He would save overlapping of efforts and thereby reduce the cost of government. A great idea.. Dempsey To Quit Ring. Jack Dempsey, heavy-weight boxing champion of the world, announces that he will relinquish the title next June when he mar­ ries Miss Estelle Taylor, a movie actress. Dembsey favors Tom­ my Gibbons as his successor. Gibbons is the only man who has ever stayed in tha ring with Dempsy through the limit. Mrs. Ollie Stockton went to Winston Thursday to attend the six 6’lock dinner given by Mr. and Mrs. M. D, Stockton, in horir or of their neicea and nephewa. The creation of a new federal district in this state which now seems a certainty, will call for the naming of a third federal district judge. The friends of Hon, A. 11. Price, of Salisbury, are already boosting him for the position. Price is a mighty fine man, a good fellow and an exceptionally able lawyer. He is young and vigorous, too, and that should mean something in his favor. Phillip Wrigley will succeed his father as president of tho thirty-five million dollar chewing, gum company which manu­ factures gum of the same name. He is only 30 years old. That proves that men do not have to wait until old and feeble to be­ come responsible for great positions these days. This is a day -when -young men are doing thing.s. Old-men, too, -arc holding their own, but it is I’efreshing to see so many fine upstanding and til'le business and professional men among the younger set] Shows they are not all frivolous. Мое Turman, New Yorker ¡with having swindled them of Admits .$1,300,000 Forgery: nearly $800,000, There also were bundles of notes, allegedely for- New York, Jan. 21—After con­ fessing forgeries totalling $1,300, ООО in a scheme to enrich himself and investors. Мое Turman, managii,\g director of the -Equity Finance and Service company was indicted today for second degree forgery and released in $5,000 bail. Clients who had been assured —and for a while received~300 per cent per annum on money loaned Turman, started an inves­ tigation a week ago. Thurman disppeared. He wandered thru Buffalo, St. Louis, Jefferson City, and Kansas City and then, last night, returned here, as he was reported to have said in his con­ fession "to take his medicine." With his wife he went to the of­ fice of the district attorey to tell all about it;. The indinient was based upon alleged forgery of one $6, ООО note. There, w<ire eight complaints, however, who charged Thurman geries, represnting large sums. Prosecutors believe Thurn\an's forgeries and misappropriations will total $2,000,000. His repor­ ted confession accounts for near­ ly three-fourths of that amount- ted confession account for nearly three-fourths of that amount. Six thousand cancelled vouchers bearing on the case are in the possession of the authorities,, “ I started borrowing from Petgjvto pay Paul in my struggles to pay high interest on $100 I bor rowed to send my widowed mot­ her and her children in Chicago," Thurman told prpsecutors. “I discovered a getVrich-quick scheme, I tried to be a Nabol- eon Of finance, and Ponzi and and flopped. My bubble burst just when it looked most real.’ The advertisements - it pays. 4 IS Was Chosen By The Con gress Of The Confcderay In liew York City Last Session July, 1788 How did it happen that March was the date selected for the inauguration of the President of the United States? It came about that it was iri the City of New York that the old Congress of the Confederacy held its final session.

During its last se.ssion, in July, 1788, it received official notice that tho new’ Constitution, fram ed by a Constitutional Convention held at Philadelphia, in 1787, had been ratified by the necessary number 0 f states, and i t im­ mediately adopted a resolution providing I hat the selection of presidential electors,'by the various states as provided in the new Con- stitution'should occur on tho "first Wednesday in January, 1789;" that the electors should cast their votes for President on the ‘Tirst Wednesday in February," and that the President thus elected iiould beinaugurated on the “first Wednesday in March.” And as it happened that the 'first W'ednesday in March" of that year occurred on the fourth day of the month, the date for the beginning of the presidential term was thus fixed for the his- toricdato, the "Fourth of March." And while it happened that in the absence of railway, telegraphs, longdistance telephones, wireless telegraphy and the radio, George Washington, seated at his com- ^rtable home at Mount Vernon, Va., did not receive official notice of his election in time to reach ew York by March 4, and was, fact, inaugurated on April 30, the date fixed for the inaugura- bn by the act of the expiring Congress of the Confederacy, March 4, has always been observ­ ed as the beginning of the presi­ dential term. Curiously, -'-' - says the Trade ,ebord of the National City Bank, which recalls th ese incidents, while the new government with ts Congress arid Chief Executive vvere thus estiiblished in the City New York, the actual seat of the government only remained here for a comparatively short time. All the sections of tho country, New England, the mid- e states and South, were re­ spectively clamoring for the es­ tablishment of a permanent capi­ tal, and the matter vvas finally settled in favor of the South by a compromise by w hich 'certain Southern members withdrew their objections to a bill providing that the government of the United States should assume the $26,000, - ООО of debts which the various states had incured during the Re­ volutionary war,and a measure establishing the permanent seat of governrnent‘on the Potomac river' was adopted, the necessary building for its occupancy to be ready by the year 1800, and the sessions of Congress meantime to be held in the City of Phila­ delphia.

The proposition would put him on part salary, with tho title of Assistant State Treasurer, or Bumething to that effect. This despite the fact that he was only reelected last November. . If there is a public servant in North Carolina who lias our mosi profound respect, and whom we honor as vie do few others, that ma n is State Treasurer R, B, Lacy and yet we can’t favor the idea 'of retiring him on a salary., Ii there is a man who deserves be­ ing pension, it is our present State Treasurer, but if we retire him on a pension, otherd will have" a right to expect the same thing., It*B a bad precedent.

Prevent Leaf Spot Disease Of Tobacco ion аь“ jvill To prevent Leaf Spot disease of tobacco such as Angular Lta t'spot and Wildfire, it Js necessary for the tobacco growec to treats his tobacco seed with Formaldehyde, using one table spoonful of form­ aldehyde to one pint of water. Shake well. Let the seed stay in this solution ten minutes by the watch, do not guess at it. Then wash the seed through four changes of water, be sure to squeeze as much of the water out of the seed each time it is taken out of the water as possible. This can be done just before planting without drying, or the seed can be dried by spreading it on paper in a waim rocm, or if small amounts are treated the seed can be left in the sack in a cool diy place. This treatment can bo done successfully if the above directions ave followed. Do not upe any more Formaldehyde than recommended, and be sure and wash thoroughly after taking out of the solution. If you use old canvas be sure and boil them thoroughly before using, them,, alse be'carefIii when planting and not handle other plants at your neighbors and then handle yours without washing your hands. Use glass fruit jars to put formalde­ hyde in. Be sure and work the seed in the bag so that the. solu­ tion will reach all the seed. I will have a supply of bulletins soon on growing tobaco. If any one wants them please call at the office; Geo., Evans, County A gent, II. It's meaning. It simply means, giving to the Lord's work in Hia kingdom one-tenth o f all, (not what we have,) but of whal we prcduce and receive, our net inccme. Some ask, "can'twepay ourtaxes with it?" No, wemijrht as well ask God to pay our funeral expenses. If our whole income be $700 and taxes be $100, then deduct the $100 from the .$800 and pay the one tenth of the $700 which would be $70 tithe. ' III. Easily done. No mystery or difficulty about. Any man can count nine dollars into his purse and put the tenth one in his "tithe box” and give it to God'H cause as He sees worthy causes come be­ fore Him. Or we may keep books on it, we can keep all other finan­ cial matters correct on our books, 80 in the same manner and for the same reason we should do this IV. The reason for it. The Lord commands it. Thewoik of the Church needs it. It is a duty, a privilege, a real means of grace and t here is no way to refuse it and be a honest, Bible Christian Christian, Those who do tithe c heerfully are always happy in it. V. Tho promise. God says, when we "bring the all, tithes” into His storehouse He will pour out blessings, more than we have room to receive. Reader, try God’s way; and pjove Him true to His promise. Amen.

' '•i l" ■ ' * Raleigh, Jan, 25. —North Caro­ lina dropped to twelfth place in the value of farm products in 1924, according to a tabulation of crop values of theleadingstates complied by ■ tho United States department о f iigriculture .and made public through a bulletin juat issued by tho North Carolina department- of agriculture. iT value of all crops in Nor th Caro­ lina in 1924, according ,tb;the re­ port, was-$320,415,000,' Tex leading the list with a valuation of $920.081,ООО.{ In 1923 North.Carolina ranked fifth in 1;he value of farm crops, * ith a valuation;of !f415,737, ООО. According to the report, the valite of fam crops in 1924 was, $95,- 322,000 leiis than in 1923. This loss, it is Raid, was largely due to \yeatherconditionM. ’ In comment- ing-on the loss .he report says ‘‘1*1 spite of adverse weather conditions throughout the year, North Carolina farmers have com.-' plained much less than they hád reasons for. Our production has decreased greatly while much of the.reiit of the .south havé made good crops. . The cotton was hurt perhaps more than.чпу other crop. ‘‘The late spiiing spring cold,: the June weather,, the dry sumV mer in the piedmont and Septem- ber’i .ijisastrous тдау poficd-told^ heavily at harvesting timé..’ Oct­ ober and Novernber were quite favorable for^biirvesting. The ,September delaj? and; shortage of farm :lahor prevented the har­ vesting of crops as soon as they should have been out of the fields. The delated fai’rn work also had its eiSect-oh fall plowing and planting of small grains. .'ThiMa quite in. contrast-to the work a year ago. “The North .Carolina farmers may be depended jon to go ahead with the 1925_ plans with /more optimism than,: might be expect-^ od,” the report ’concli|des.-:^" ■ I ■ The value:of farm crops accord­ ing to ran к i n 1924, toge ther wi th thel923 rankand Valuation ofthe 12 leading states,tabulated in the report, is as follows: ■' Value all Rank Rank' State crops 1924 ] 924 1923 Texas $920,083,000 1- I Illinois' •554.108,000 2 3 Iowa • 531,136,000 3 2 Kansas '455,9^24,000 4 1] California . 428,106,000 5 4 Oklahoma 427,904,000 6: 18 Minnesota , 408>829',OGO 7 9 Nebraska 36&,7Í9;000 8 IQ Missouri « 'ЗЙ;096,000 9 North'Dakota 84^,516.000 10 271 0.1 Saturday evening January 24th, íMiss' Walker :Woodley/ tho high school faculty, charm ingly -entertained the members'p the girls’ and boys’ ba-Ocet b,U team, at the home-of Miss Ethe Smithdeal.

This VTÍII mean hiore profit because it necessitates a lietter grade of pro­ duct, group action iri selling'and the establishment of brands which will, become known in all the argor markets. í ' There was à total (?f 8,S04;c'ar- lot.shipment9of the various fruits and vegetables ■ from eastern Nforth Carolina diiring 1924 as compared with 6,219 in 1923. At tho samo time 416,488 éxprsséd packages vyere shippcid in 1924 aa against 358,970 in 1923.

C., THURSDAY, FEB. 5. 1925 Says It Would Require $250,- 000,0(№ To Finish The Highway Job Raleigh, Jan . 31.—Governor McLean’s daily talk to the news­ paper boys was a continued ap­ peal to them to make it plain that his road recommendations are made as a friend of state high- waye. He takes the long view of Iti he feels. The governor does not compre­ hend the $35,000,000 figures. He falls to flee where they belong. Ha Icnows they are a lot of monpy and he recalls that the state has issued $66,000,000 in road bonds. He sees that$ 35, ООО, ООО ad ded t о $66,000,000 will round out $100,- 000,000; but that does not clear up the mystery, for $100,000,000 will not build the state highway sy­ stem of concrete, And that's what “completing the system" means to many road enthusiasts h e thinks? It will take $250,000,000 to build such a system and he would not be supris- ed if it should require $300,000,- 000. Of one . thing he is quite certain—th e state cannot con­ struct any such system in its pre- seht'plight of taxation. The governor feels the pressure. He knows that the legislators are fresh irom home and that back there the enthusiasts do not sec the.equation between roads and revenues. Ho desires to build the roads, but ho is a financier who has the samedilFiculty getting rid of the silver of an Abraham and thè gold of a David that old Adam Smith had. The plight of the ffovirnor isn’t pretty. His prèdeccór had to drive one.season and'Coaet'all the next. Mr. Mc­ Lean n)ust fall back or. the road machinery will run over him. But it musn’t run away. That is his, jobi ; ¿ Itis a terrific job. No executive ever had a harder one. He has the,sympathy of every­ body, but the county stateaman- ship is all pervasive, ’ Cabinet members, that is to could ask for a breathing spell without getting it, ---------^------------- . Short Course for Women at State College this Summer Raleigh, Feb. - 2.-Club girls have been given a short coiirse of in'itruction by home demons­ tration workers of the State Col­ lege extension service each year, but their mothers have been over looked and now IVIra. Jane S. McKlmmon plana that these moth ers shall have the opportunity which is rightly theirs. So, Mrs. McKimmon and her co-workers in the home demons­ tration division have planned a sliort course for rural women to be held at the college during the summer sohool. The course will deal w.ith family meals, costume planning, millinery and house hold furnishings. Work ’ with poultry and the home dairy will also be featui'ed for women want­ ing information on these subjects Mrs. McKimmon is now prepar­ ing for the corps of instructors who will give this worlc. "I want ten women from each county to attend this course," says Mrs. McKimmon, "The prospective student may arrivé at tho College on Monday morn­ ing, register and be roady for work Mimday afternoon. She may return home Saturday after­ noon and most any woman can afford to bo away from home for at least this time, No woman will be allowed to take over two subjects as we want time for conferences and recreation. “This cost will be moderate. Meals, lodging and laboratory fees will amount to one dollar and fifty cents. An extra dollar will be needed for material if the student takes clothing work and this means the.whole coui'ae will cost less than ten dollars. “We have received so many re- IS THERE OK IS THEEE NOT A STATE DE­ FICIT? VALUE Of’ MILK AS A STRENGTH AND BODY BUILDER. OTHER RAMBLING SUGGESTIONSfor ENTERPRISE READEKS And tliey keep on fussing over whether or'not there is ,a deficit or not a deficit in the state treasury. Now, there is no use talking, either North Carolina has more assets than liabilities, or else she has more liabilities than assets. One faction claims there is a deficit of around ten million dollars. Another claims that/ there Ì3 in reality no deficit at all. Among those who claim the big state deficit is Corporation Commissioner Maxwell, Among those who contend that the actual deficit is only around $1,500,- 000 is Secretary of State Everett. He says,,furthermore, that if all taxes due the state were collected and credited, there would be no deficit at all. That ought to settle the matter, but still the fleficit claim goes on. It ought to. be possible to, Settlè this ques­ tion once and for all. If there is a deficit of $10,000,000, as some claim, the people ought to know it. If there is no deficit, the tax payers are entitled to know the truth. The General Assembly now in session, should not adjourn until the tjuestion is finally and for­ ever settled—so completely settled that every self respecting man in the state would not dare dispute the question under peril of being branded as an ignoramus. The people are tired of hearing he question mooted longer. They want the real.truth, and they are entitled to it.' Let the truth be known to all. : The value of milk as a beautifyer,'a body builder and strength giver, cannot be over stressed. Since man's early histoiry, milk has been used as .the mainstay in theAvay of diet.“ But as we gain knowledge, we learn more and more about it’s true value, especial­ ly as it relates to the health, growth and beauty of our children. Now teachers; editors and welfare workers every where are prais,- ng the. good old commodity as indispensible. They are not only talking of it’s body building qualities, but they are telling.the peo­ ple how to care for their milk so as to avoid it's disease breeding tendency when improperly handled, , , ' A recent'writer, discussing the value of milk, as compared with-other articles of diet, says that the nourishment and chemical composition in one gallon of milk is as follows : Milk auKar, (1.8 ouncus, which makes gallactoso, or food for tho bvaln, liuttcrfut, about 5.8 ounces, for energy. 'Chlorides, 50 grains, which mako acid for the stomach and salt for the body. Bay, folks who sit next to him, believe he will win the legislature: > to a program which contemplates ^ i^om runU women for a from all sources about $14,500,000 , short course of this Innd that we annual expenditure on roads for’P»"« to begin the work this sum■¡mer and any farm woman who wishes to take pari: in the course should write mo in care of State the next biennium. The hope of compromise lies in the ability of legislative leaders to ¿ee that they have won subetahtial victory in driving the state highway com­ mission and Mr.' McLean from a 10 million to à 20 million program. The governor undoubtedly had thought vyell of a lower figure. To get abqut $15,000,000 into n road program two years in suc- cesBion means but a littl<r less than thé state would have to spend on its regularprogram, McLean back­ ers say. The city is full of party leaders whq are not legislative officials. They generally agree that Gover­ nor McLean will convert the leg- islatiire. This does not alter the • fàçt that this assembly is over-' .whelmingly. committed to roads, 'But it is’équàllÿ dedic up­ holding its governor, Itjs plain frpm the most casqal conversa­ tion with Max Giifdner, Jüdge Wflteç .Brock,'Chairman John G. ‘ Dsiw'son 'ahd Judge j, C.

' The question las come up at a number of elections, but every tirne, so far, the people have voted it down. , We believe this has been done largely through thoughtlessness. For why should the people desire, or expect their representatives and senators in the General Assembly to serve them for $4 a day and pay their expenses? Surely the amendment will pass if again put to a vote. ^ This is naturally á wheat growing Country. It is true we have never done our best in wheat culturé, but thaf'is not because we ought not to have done so. The farmers of this county ought to “spread themselves" on wheat growing next yaar. The price is now soaring to i.’ie sky, so to speak, and if our farmers had that commodity in abundance they would be ‘in clover." Let us learn what we can grow on our farms with most profit and then stress that'one.crop more,' And wiheat should be one of our most important crops. We boast of oui; schools, roads and other improvements, and we have á right to do so. We glory in the fact that we stand fourth among the sister states in the amount of federal taxes paid, and that is something of which we may well be proud. But our illiteracy is still staggering,'and, if we are to judge by the news­ paper circulation'in the state, we áre down at the very bottom of the list, A larger per cent of our people ai'e without any kind of newspaper in tlieir homes than almost any other section ol the country, and that will always tell the tale. Educated people nearly always take their home paper, Every close observer knows that. Then when we see so niany in North Carolina who do not read any newspaper at all, we are forced to believe that we are yet behind other states in the way of intelligence. But our folks are picking up in their newspaper reading, and within another decade a man who do63 not take and read his home newspaper will be regarded as nobody at all, and there will be few such found' anywhere in .this state.
