Bndin, Feb. 28.—The Piedmont
Difttrict meeting of the P. O. S.
«f A., was held here last .night
in the Theatre with one of. the
: largest uroWds that hus ever as-
jiembled in Badin. Mr. H. H.
' Koontz of Lexington who is pre
sident of this district , presided
■ over the meeting. The devotio
nal exercises Wore conducted by
3Rcv. J. M. Page of Badin. Ame-
jrica was sung as the opening.
V Hymn. The address of welcome
was mnde by Mr* S. A. Cope, gene

Cope’s address was a mnster-
■j)io(!o of welcome to the visitors

The response to the addre.Ms of
welcome was made by Rev. J. T.

sured Mr. Cope that the visitors
Jiad already found that they were
welcome by the honor of being
permited to go through the great

is thè best friend the democratic
party has in the republican ranks.
He. is- the greatest handicap the
republicans have. He just will
not stay out of the party’s work-,

started what now appears a fight
in the republican ranks. Com
menting upon Butler’s attitude
the Durhnni Herald makes this
interesting comment:
“Judging by the reports coming
from Washington, Marion Butler
is not at all satisfied with the
work of the republican state exe
cutive committee which met. here
last Wednesday. He claims that
the committc(i is hand-picked, but
doesn’t say out loud who did the
picking, and characterizes the
vvhicii affair as ‘the last pitiable
performance of an unrepresenta
tive and incompetent party ma

TIME TO PREPARE
FOR SPRING WORK
'Raleigh; Feb. 24.— Heavy
«pring work will soon begin on
-the farms of North Carolina,
^erefore any preparations made
now will, lighten the burden later
so. It’s a very good idea to see
that the plows are ih shape, that
iho points aro sharp and all bolts
are tightened, states D. S. Weav-
■ er, agricultural engineer at State
College. Mr. Weayer states that
'Where the disk plbw is to be us-
, -«d, the disk bearings need to be
cleaned out, the grit washed out
and new cup grease put in.
"Then, too, if we are to make
■ aome needed additions to the fai-m
buildings, it is a good idea to
i?et plans for these buildings as
early as possible,” says Mr. Weav-
er. “This is a better plan than
, to wait until we are ready to be
gin construction. By having a
. cet of plans, costly mistakes can
'' l>e avoided and last minute chang-
. « i made unnecessary. Sometimes
;'l»tter prices for materials can be
secured by buying slowly in ad
vance and not on the moment,
pressed for time.”
Another important maUer is to
, clean up about the farm home.
Mr. Weaver states that at the end
of winter there is an accumula-
“tion of trash in and about the
average farm yard. At odd tim
es, this may bo cleared away and
plans made for beautifying the
.yard. . This results in making the
<arm home a more pleasant place
in which to live and gives the
owner .a pride in owning a neat
: appearing place.
'coriipeterits’ of the party. Very
naturally, both of those expres-
sloHs would apply, in Mr. Butler’s
opinion, to Mr. Butler.
“But, the fact that Butler re
fers to it as the ‘last’ performance
shows very clearly that he is pre
paring to assail the present party
organization. The meaning of it
is that the convention will in all
probability be a lively affair.”
Verily the democracy of North
Carolina need not fear defeat as
long a.s Marion Butler keeps
poking at the state G. 0. P.
MODERN CHICK MUST BE
HATCHED EARLY TO
RING CASH REGISTER
The early' bird gets the worm,
and the fi^ e r who hatches his
chicks early is iayirig the founda
tion for profitable egg production
next winter, according to the Lar-
rowe Institute of Animal Econo
mics. November now< brings
highest prices for eggs instead
of January as in foi-mer years,
and progressive farmers are find
ing that it pays to advance hatch
ing formerly done in May and
June to P’ebruary and March.
While winter is normally the
season of dormant reproduction
in poultry, the farmer who applies
the few basic principles of poul
try culture will And that he is
able to get satisfactory produc
tion from his flock during 1:he cold
months, the Institute states. The
use of good blood is thé first pre
requisite; early hatching is im
portant; third, there must be con
stant growth from the time the
pullet pops out of the egg until
she lays one, and plentiful feed
ing of egg-making food during the
laying. Especially important is
the matter of proper feeding, for
without the right kind and quan
tities of feed the other factors
will be of little avail.
The advantages of‘early hatch
ing are enumerated by the Insti
tute as follows: Early hatched
chicks are less susceptible to the
common poultry diseases, make a
good normal growth during spring
and summer and come into laying
condition when eggs are in ex
cellent demand at a satisfactory
price. Under average brooding
and rearing conditions, chicks
with an early start make a much
better growth and attain a larger
size and development than do late
hatched chicks. Another advan
tage of early hatching chicks is
that the surplus cockerels can be
Chapel Hill, Feb. 23.—‘‘North
Carolina is probably headed into
farm tenantry more rapidly than
any other state in the union. Such
ia the conclusion one must draw
from a close study of the 1926
farm census data which have re
cently been released,” according
to an article in the current numb
er of the University’News Letter.
‘‘In 1920 there were 117,459
'farms operated by tenants in
North Carolina. In 1925 there
were 131,867, or a five year in
crease in all farms was 18,729,
which means that the increases in
the number of farms operated by
tenants was larger than the net
gain in all farms. Only two stat
es in the Union experienced larg
er increases in farms during the
last five years, and probably no
state had anywhere like as large
an increase in farms operated by
tenants.
‘‘In 1920 the farms operated by
tenants were 43.5 per cent of all
farms in the state. The farm ten
ant ratio in 1925 was 46.5 per cent*
a ratio increase of three per cant
in just five-years. This is a sig
nificant gain considering the en
ormous number of farms in the
state.
. ‘‘Dare county, an exceptionairy
unimportant county in agriculture
with only 7.6 per cent of her
farms operated by tenants, has
the lowest farm tenant rate in the
state. Edgecombe county has ra
pidly been heading into tenancy
during the recent years and now
ha^! the highest farm tenant rate
in the state. Of all farms in the
country 88.3 per cent are operat
ed by tenants.”
How does this one account for
the fact that Niorth Carolina leads
all states in increased numbers
of farms operated by tenants dur
ing the last five years? The fol
lowing three reasons are perhaps
the man explanations, the writer
points out.
‘‘First, the depression. During
the prosperous war period imme
diately preceding 1920 thousands
of farmers mainly former teiianlB,
made first payments on high-pric
ed cotton-tobacco land. When
the slump came these would-be
farm owners found it unwise or
impossible to hold the land. The
land reverted to the original own
ers, and the would-be purchasers
reverted to their former tenant
status.
“A second reason is that both
cotton and tobacco are ideal ten
ant crops, and Noith Carolina is

LINA SHOW LAROB tó tm A S É I^ MiHer/of WlnsìoniSaleni^ Mr.!
The Charlotte Observer..
It is not simply an occasion for
North Carolina to take oflF its hat
to Senator Simmons. The Unit
ed States could afford to uncover
before him, because he is the man
who won'tho fight for reduction
in National taxes. There are
none who can deny that fact and
we believe the country is in mood
to give willing acknowledgement.
The Observer would not give
praise to the North Carolina Sen
ator solely because he is a pro
duct of this State nnd a Demo
crat. Slate pride is strong, but
it is Simmons’ rise to dominating
influence In the National law body
that is the point of emphasis. He
was chairman of the Finance
Committee during the Administra
tion of Mr. Wilson and in that
capacity developed an under
standing of tax aifairs that es
tablished him in the confidence
of his associates on both aides
of the Senate. He has. remained
a doniin.tting influence in tho Sen
ate committee and that has been
demonstrated in the fact that he
played a stronger hand in formu
lation of the revenue reduction
bill this term, than he played in
shaping the same measure at tho
last session of Congress. It was
Senator Simmons’ determination
to relieve the tax-payers of the
country of the fullest burden of
estate taxes. He did not get tho
whole loaf, but he got tho tradi
tional half, with very good pros
pect that the other half will come
along later.
Included in the Simmons. list of
gainings is the saving of the
Duke benievolences from what
would have amounted to gove'rn-,
mental confiscation. It is a long
list in public benefits that Sim
mons accomplished by reason of
his determined stand and his pre-.
sentation of situations in indis
puted array. It has been not on
ly a big day for Simmons in the
Senate, but a big day for the tax
payers of the Nation.
The news))apers of North Caro
lina and of other States'have op
portunity to discuss Mr. Simmons
in the light of one who has achi
eved distinction by reason of ser
vices of National importance. He
had the -niisistanco of able asso
ciates, but there was a strong
combination of circumstances to
overcome, and it i« another dis
tinct credit that Simmons and his
supporters were able to strike a
compromise that embodied the
major benefits they had claimed,
nnd ,thnt will in all probability
prove of acceptance by the Pre
sident and his advisers. And
t^iis is*as much as saying that the
outcome of the Simmons fight for
reduced taxes was accomplish
ment of a character the Adminis
tration w'as not able to bring
about with its own political re
sources. The Nation will have a
revised tax which was shaped and
forced by the minority party in
a Republican Congress. The con
crete result is a reduction in the
people’s tax burden of $881,000,-
000 during the first year of the
operation of the revised bill, and
subsequent tax reduction of $343,-
000,000, with-prospect of ultimate
relief from excessive income tax
es and no inheritance tax at all.
Senator Simmons, active lead
er in the tax reduction schedule,
has paved the way to progressive
return to normal in tax levies, 68 Bertie
the concessions secured from the ''
opposition being of a nature to
facilitate this eventuality. One
fine prospect growing from Siin-
mons’ fight for lower taxes is the
advancing of this country but of
a condition of taxation on a war
basis. The retroactive cut 'in
taxes is a long step in that direc
tion. Best of all is the developed
fact that the reduction forced
from the House can be given the
people without danger of impair-

'In; his announcement Senator
pVeripan makes no mention of the

In his announcemerit Senator
Overman states that he will not
leave Washington to campaign the
State for renomination. No or
ganization plans were announced
by the Junior North Carolina
Senator.
"1 shall remain at my post; of

Overman states, “and I have tho

be iîeçurod .in the hands, of my

them to return mo again to- the
Senate. To their service and to
the service-of- my whole country.
I have given the best years of my
life arid with this long experience
I believe .that I am the better pre
pared to serve-North Carolina in

“ I have fought conscientiously
to maintain the htgh ideals in
public life which I have always
sought to live up to in private
life. I do not believe, as my rec
ord will show, that I have been
ari unprofltable servant of Iriiy

er tern in the Sénate I pledge
myself to give thé very best that

tried to do in the paist. I shall
remain at riiy'post of duty where

Senator Overman has seen long

YOUR HEALTH
Baby Teeth
A putient in a »lontist’a oflice
said, "cloctoi-, I don’t see why I
havo so much trouble with my
tooth, I think I have been as care
ful and as faithful for the past
fifteen years about keeping my
mouth clean as most people aré.”
The dentist replied, "yea, I see
you have been but it wos the first
fifteen years and not the last
fifteen that caused your:trouble.”
The baby teeth act as path
finders for the permanent teeth,
and guide the second teeth into
their proper places. If you want
to keep the baby teeth in good
condition until it is time for them
to come out, you mtist give them
the best of care. Brush them oft
en anti always at night before the
little one goes to bed see that
their teeth are absolutely clean.
It 18 said, "a hat>it once form
ed is hard to break,” so start the
habit early of keeping the teeth
cican. As the de.ntist so aptly
said, “it’s the first fifteen y.enrs”
that count. Early habits and
baby teeth will determine moat
surely the amount of trouble the
tiseth will cause in later life. Ev
ery child'is entitled to a square
deal. ■
Remember that decay, holes in
the teeth, can be preVehted by
keeping the teeth,'clean, aiid re-^
member that if the boby teeth are
kept ■ sound until they come out
the second teeth will come in
Straight and sound.. If the se
cond teeth are nevervallowiad tó^
accumulate decaying food and tar
tar along the guni margins and
between them they will remain
sound' arid Straight. (
i; Decayed''iteeth càuse as much
or more “growing pains” in, child-
ten and "rheumatism”, and "heart
discàse” in older people as all'thiD
other, causes combined.
■ Don’t wait to "lock the stable
iintil after the, horse is stolon”
and "it’s much better to be safo
than sorry.” Be fair with the
children and give them the right'
start., ---------------*:----------:----

Ih using sulphuric acid for this

repeated tests that acid of 06 de
grees Baume should bo used. Acid
of this strength will dcllnt tho

temperatures. Not less than 2 1-2
to 3 quarts should be used for
each bushel of seed and the acid
is best applied by pouring it over
the seed with a sprinkling can
while the seeds are bein gstirred.
In this' W ay, the operator cgli
coat' the seed with acid with >a

Raleigh, Feb. 26.—The Cham
pion Fibre company of Canton to
day drew another order for a car
load of paper from State Print
ing Commissioner Frank Gri^t,
who is ai confirmed trade-at-
homer. The order called for a
fine grade, of book paper manufac
tured in the Can.ton plant.
The state first turned to the na
tive stock to supply its paper
needs last spring when it brought
a carioad of' bond paper. Today's
order for a carioad of book paper
is in recognition of the excellence,
of the-first supply.
The Champion company stands
in well with state ofncialdom by
reason of its interest in advertis
ing to the , world tlie nativity of
its product.
• Governor McLean sometime ago
wrote tho company’s president to
register ofHcial appreciation for
the water mark, "Made in North
Carolina” which paper produced
in the Canton plant carries. ■

Farm tenanby in North Carolina
is increasing, according to the
Department of Commerce 'which
has released the 1925 figures on
the conditions in North Carolina.
The number of farips in the
State operated by tenants in 1920
was 43.5 per cent and this in
creased to 45.2 per cent in 1926
and the number of farm tenants
increased from 117,469 in the
same five year period to 128,284.
In 36 counties in North Caro
lina more farms are operated by
tenants than- by .owners. From
Cleveland county west only a
small per cent of the farms are
tilled by tenants while the farth
er east the more tenant operated
farms.In Randolph county, 799 of the
4,241 farms are operated by. ten
ants and four by managers. In
Montgomery," 663 out of 1,817 --------------— -
farms are tilled by tenants. Over the electric'refrigerator because
in Davidson tenants operate 822 it increases her liberties.^ W^h
of the 4,022 farms while manag- it in her kitchen she doesn’t need
ers operate 4. Chatham has 1,- to remain a t home when she wants
189 of its 3,639 farms operated to go away. She never needs to
by tenants. Guilford has- 968 leave the back door unlocked. It
tenant operated farms out of, a eliminates fuss, and bother, clean-
forward with keen anticipation .
to the day when she will turn the
house upside down, from base
ment to attic—just as all Eve’a
married daughters have periodi
cally done—and is already men
tally buying paint and varnish,
hanging pictures and wielding a
dust cloth.
But the modern wife is interest
ed in other things besides merely
cleaning and beautifying her
home. She is decidedly practical,
in her thoughts and plans. She
wants to run her home in an ef
ficient way, to cut expenses, to
improve the quality of the family’s ,
food, and, whenever ^possible'to I
save herself needless labor, and
close confinement to the kitchen.
Thouf^nds of housewives, in
starting their spring hduseclean-
ing will begin with the family Ice
box, which requires Teno.vating
to guard against the insanitary
conditions caused by dampness.
This alone requires a great
amount of work—just taking care
of it.' 'Work that is'eliminated
by the electric refrigerator.
Electric refrigeration preserves
foods perfectly. Foods usually
regarded as highly perishable,
such as ripe berries or tomatoes
can be kept in the cabinet for a
number of days and they will re
tain their original freshness. She
has the assurance that anything
taken from it will be fresh and
wholesome, ready for use.
N(?t only does the electric re
frigerator keep highly perishable
foods in a perfectly fresh condi
tion but it actually improves cer-
toin vegetables, such as lettuce
and celery which repiain crisp
and appetizing bn its cold, dry
shelves. The full flavor of meats
and the sweetness of butter, milk
and cream is preserved for an
indefinite period.
Then it provides ice cubes of
convenient size for table use.
'These cubes are frozen from the
regular family drinking water.
They are clear, clean and uncon-
taminated by foreign matter.
In addition, the housewife with
an electric refrigerator in her
kitchen can always have many
new ices, chilled foods, frozen
desserts and other wonderful
dainties, The Frigidaire recipe
book telis of dozens of delightful
dishes she can prepáre in this
manner, with little trouble and
slight expense.

'( By-,Mrs. Lindsay Patter.son, in

Every spring that comes along
I am jiist as thrilled as if I were
seeing hiy'first ono. Repetition
cannot dull the glory of the
change from death to life.
I am so surprised, too, to see
so many plants that I thought had
died from last summer’s'drouth.
Those sensible plants just went
into summer quarters like bears
go into wiiiter quarters and stay
ed below ground while it was so
hot. Now tho very ones that I
mourned as dead are poking their
nice green noses out of thc ground
as chipper and hearty as you
please.. Mother Nature certain
ly takes care of her own. And
the peonies that I wailed over
loudest aiici longest are the most
flourishing—a whole border of
them. When I saw the luxuriant
leaves growing in the half-frozen
ground and recalled my wasted
anguish of last summer, I thought
of those funny lines of Edna St.
Vincent Millay:
“Was it for this I sald my prayers
And wept and wailed, and kicked
the stairs” » '
Why do wo so often just take the
worst for granted instead of pa
tiently, waiting for the best which
invariably comes, if we are con
tent to wait?
you will have to give timó and
labor and thought to make it even
half u'hat you want it to be,
And,don't worry if you make
mistakes and set out'plants where
you later find they are' in the way.
I wish you could gaze on niy mis
fit jobs. though Pve been working
with flowers all my life and ought
to know how by this time. Yet
at least one-thlrcl of my job each
season is undoing what I did’the
previous year. I’ve just changed
my mind, or thint» didn’t look as
I thought they, would.
So mistakes are all In the day’s
work and we can iet them go at
that. Life is long enough to do
all you want to in, but it’s entire-'
ly too short to worry about any
thing, I don’t care what it is. Ui;-
do your mistakes if possible, and
if it isn’t rememoer that one
sometimes pays a heavy price for
wisdom, and let that be your price
and don't make the same mistake
over again.
have plenty to give in turn and
can help others with their new
homes. You can Imagine'what
thi.9 place looked like when I took
it, after it had beeii a cattle pas
ture for fifty years without any
trees. ' '
But the view-is beyond words
beaiitiful iind ,I wanted that and
knew the‘ rest could be changed
gradually .'by hard worlc and ,pa>
tiencu. So as I have so often told
you while Long Hope Hill is not
worth looking at now 'from the
viewpoint of a landscape garden
er, in' ii tew years it will be love
ly. Not the house, which Is quite
a simple little affair, but the^
grounds.-which are extensive en
ough to give eVen me all . the
room I want for all the plants

machine which loses no time or I instance, Mr, Blair states
.space in the newspapers to tell' Experiment Sta-
Raleigh,; March 10.—Despite
tho higher cost of red clover seed
produced , Ih the United States,
such, aeod js better for uao in
North Carolina than foreign im
ported seed.
E. C. Blair, extension ■ agrono-
mlflt at State Collogo,.finds thTltf
rod clover seed grown in the
United Stntes i now coats about
live dollars a bushel more than
ihe French grown seed. “But,”
he, says, "the native grown seed
are, best and well worth this dif
ference in prIcQ,;. Although tho
French seeds are among tho best;
of the foreign seeds brought into
the United States, our native
seeds have several advantages
Those advantagea do
of the w,onderfur,’t!conomiea of
"calculating Cal.” ‘
Oldfield goes to tho rocorda and
finds these figures-for the enlight-
mont of the people:/ ,
Tho great'est oxpenao of tho
Presidential yatuh Mayflower in
nny year of the Wilson administ
ration waa $227,110,
During the firat year of Hard-
ing’a administration the upkeep
of the Mayflower cost tho peopio
?'12-l,9ia, and Harding did not
claim to be an economist.
During tho fir,St .year of tho
Coolidge administration the up-,
keop cost of' the Mayflower has
been if613,139, and Coolidgo
claims to be king boo of the eco
nomists. Yet the coat of his pri
vate yatch was throe times that
of any yoar during the \Viison ad-,
ministrafion and fifty per ' ‘cpnt
more than during that of Hard-
ing,
, Not. only that, but in-,1924, this
king bee of economists exceeded
hia traveling allowance of :?26,-
000 by an extra; $8,500 and' iCori-'
gross paid ,the difference out 'of
tho people’s money. ■ ^:
: Not yet, ending,, it is estimated
that it wi.U coat ?500,P06 to hiako
tion has found that American
gi'own seed averages over 1,000
pounds more Hay per aero than
the French grown, when the two
are aown aide by aide. Thia dif
ference ia due mainly to the fact
that tho foreign seed is more subf
ject to nnthracnose. This disoasp
destroys much of the stand of
clover and seriously checks ' the
growth of those plants not kiilod
outright.- As a result of thia di-
aease, the foreign grown aeod ael-
dom makes a good second crop.
Indicationa aro that the supply
of, American grown seed will bo
very short this aoaaon, while an
unusually Inrgo amount of foreign
ancd ia on the. market.

lina farmers to know the aourco

This is the month to sow lawn
grass. As. a rule April is a bit
too late. Fair is the beat time,
but spring as a ruie will do, but
it'is not best to wait too Inte in
the season, for then, unless the
season happens to loe an exceptio
nal onej the sun burns up the
young grass before it has time to
take sufficient root. So, if you
had planned tp sow ydtir lawn this
spring, the earlier in March you
do it the bettor.: And don’t for*
get that it will soon be a bit late
for planting trees and shrubbery.

pose the doctrlno of special privi

the big interests, «nd claim to

criticize tho republicans of the
north for their stand in favor of
the "big interests,” while we
proudly proclaim that we are for
"the dear people,” i)ut let sòme
of our own big interests located
in oiir home section get into a
tight, place and see how most of
us really love tlie. cause of the
"people.” If it is iiroper for the
gover|iment to offer special' privi-
Jeges to a. big business in the
south, then it is right for the gov
ernment to take the same attitude
toward the big ii^torests located
in the north. Even .some of our

to the aluminum company investi
gating, becausb it might cripple
the Badin plant.
The word, “hero,” and the e>:-
presaion, "victor,” almost instiint-
ly call to ^our nunds some great
■politician or soldier. We have
been trained to believe that' only
those who make groat sacrifices
■in times of war, or risk their lives
td save some persoii from drown
ing or’irom a burning building or
such lilco, are .horqoH. But who
shall say that; the'.world’s great

• tiiose whoso names are blazed on
hÍKtory’.s pages, or wri(,teu in the
hall of fame. Rather, ia it not
a fact that the real heroes, .the
real viftora, are those Vi'ho have
made, nnd, are .making’, ,'their
' fights in a quiet way, the "inglo
rious victors,” whose deeds for
mankinds’ welfare, are., never
heralded abroiid nor cried out
"from high places? We would not
- tiiko from .Uio offer their
lives : upon the altar of their
country times of' war one par
ticle of the honor duo. them. But
are there not, others whóse. lives
are just ;as much or even more
' effectively devoted to the welfare
of mankind, whose names arc nev-
, or heard except among their elos-
eflt friends and neighbors. This
,‘.1 is what the editpr of the \Vlnston-
Salem Journal had in'min'd when:
fip penned this beautiful lino of
v t}]iOught for, that paper a few days ‘
died now constitutes one-tenth of
all the deaths in the United Stat
es and while Stephen Leacock has
lost the battle which he waged
for his wife he has pledged him
self to continue the fight for hu
manity’s sake against this insidu-
ous malady. For the remainder
of his. life he will dedicate his
literary earnings to finding an
adequate deterrect fx>r cancer,
“The nobility of soul which
animates Stephen Le;jcock in his
humanitarian mission makes him
worthy to be called a hero of
peace. Through the chastening
of his own suffering he has won
a great victory for himself and
humanity and he is indeed for
tunate in this noble achievement.

Raleigh, March 3.—^There is
not enough plant food left in the
soil from fertilizer applied last
year to raise profitable crops
this year. Another application
must be made this ueason if good
acre yields. are to be secured.
This is the opinion of L. G.
Willis, soil chemist at the North
Carolina Experiment Station, who
states that the Station has had
a great number of requests fToni
farmers as to the value of the
fertilizer left in the ground last
season. He stateu that while the
dry season last year resulted
much of the fertilizer not being
used by the crpps.during the sum
mer seiison, much of this plant
food has either leached out or has
formed such chemical combina
tions with the soil particles that
little of the material is available
to get the crops off to a start or
to mature a full yield.
The ammonia or nitrogen might
have stayed in the soils until the
winter rains but these have wash
ed out practically all the remain
ed. Potash, he states, is not easi
ly leached out but it is fixed by
chemical action soon after being
applied and- these; combinations
grow, less' soluble with age

“ ' S : i:
there is little likelihood that tho
potash will be of value.
With phosphate, the same is
true. Phosphate dissolves readi
ly in the.soir moisture when first
applied but is then almost imme
diately fixed by chemical action,
with the soil; miiiorals and will
not be readily apaiIable;’now,
Experiments have shown, stat
es Mr. Willis, that,applications of
phosphate to soils two weeks be

than applications’ made imniiedi-
ately; before. ; planciiig,'. If . twft

The month just closed was the
biggest January in the history of
Dodge Brothers, Inc., and Graham
Brothers, according to' ofilcial
figures just given out at the ofllco
in Detroit. Actual retail deliveri
es of 14,943 cars and trucks was
the record reached in the four
weeks ending January 30, This
was nn increase over t.hc same
period of January, 1925, tho
greatest previous' January for
Dodge Brothers, of 6018 cars, or
a gain of 67,4 percent, Tlio gain
over January 1923, the banner
year prior to 1925 for tho .automo
tive industry, was oven greater.
New orders for the' month
reached an even higher figure,
19,218 units. ■
Tho biggest January week in
Dodge Brotiiorii’ history was tho
ending tho i!Oth, when deliveries
of motor vehicleo reached 4,370,
an increase of moro than 82 per
cent over the same week of a year
agp,, ,.
The delivery of 4188 cars for
the week ending January 16 was
a gain'of 101 per cent over the
corresponding week of thè previ
ous year.
These cumulative advances are
attributed by Dodge Brothers e.xe-
cutives to the radical reductions
in prices on all types of Dodge
Brothers cars which were made
public January 7, at tho same
time that marked improvements
were made in all types.
The figures announced by
Dodge Brothers, Inc,, represent
actual deliveries to car owners for
immediate use, not factory ship
ments of ears for storage to sup
ply anticipated spring demand,
“Although Dodge Brothers, Inc.
and Graham Brothers production
is rising daily,” said a factory salr
es executive, commenting on the
January record, “these delivery
records, made in January, usual
ly an off month, show clearly that
public recognition of tho excopt-
onal values represented by the
recent improvements and the new
low prices''will soon result in
complete wiping out of the small
winter stocks which dealers have
been able to accumulate in anti
cipation of the heavy demand us
ually experienced by all manufac
turers in the early spring,
'fhe demand that American car
buyer.s are now making on the
automotive industry is indicated
by the fact that Dodge Brothers
so retail sales are running ahead of
deliveries although the produc
tion schoduie was cloae to 1,100
cars, a day all during January,
Witli tho ne.w buildings and ma
chinery provided by^a !fl0,000,-
000 expansion program, Do'dge.
Brothers expect to ii)croase pro
duction to .1,500 cars daily before '
tho end of February.
Factory sliipments of cars a.nd
trucks totalled 22,1.S6 during,
per cent January as compared
with 15,083 fluring .Tanuary, 1926;
an increase of,41 por cent. Of
tliG total factory ahipmouta, 19,-

And you can get relief—ijuicWvand completely—with a very siraplohomo treatment.
"I was In bed with Îumbago,"writea C. L. Normandy of St. Paul, Minnesota. "A friend told me about Sloan’s Liniment, and after using it one day, I was able to walk around the house. After three days 1 was able to go'to work, and now I’m as well as ever."
The reason that Sloan’s Llnlmènt gives such remarkable relief is that it gets right at the cause of the pain. It stimulates the circulation throughout the place ^hére thé pain ia, and dean out the gemii that are causing it.

Nervousness
(By State ;Board’ of Health) _
In this strenuous age when al4
ways there appears to be somerv
thing waiting to be done and with]
never time to do it; wc hear moré;
and more of nervousness. ' With
the ever-increasing competition in'
business and in social life, and’
the competition in sociai'Iife may^
be, keener and more ■diiastrous;
than in business, there results an:
increasing number of victims of
“nervousness.”
The medical director of 'a sani-.
torium for nervous patients once
explained that very often patients,
more .often women, come in f'or
restj or for the treatment of vari
ous complaints when the only
need is reát, and when ordered to
bed they all but refuse. Siich per
sons, after being! compellfe’d. to ré
main in bed for three or four days
often say at the end of that time
that they feel much worse than
when they, first entered. And
this indeed is true. They had liv
ed in high tension so lóng they
could not relax and “ let g;o” of
theinselves. There, was an actüal
physical exhaustion which they:
had not realized, until á forccd
rest broké this high nervous tpn-
siohl When .they did relax the
real exhaustion was felt. After
once securing relaxation, ;.thuuv
this doctor explained,.; it4 is easy
to build up thei^astcd strength'
and recovery is rapid.
Let’s take this doctor’s state
ment as'a.yaluable tip. ,> If' relax
ation w ill' ciire. nérVpu.8‘ñefiá;,3!'e''- laxatión ‘ w ijl, .pireveht * n
hess.''',,, ’■ .1;;'"''jV < '
-But, the busy housewife repli
es with almost scorn iii her iaughj’'.
I'wheri can I relax? THére is nev
er a moment for rest at my
house.” The reply should be,
"But there is always time to do
the.things that must bo done, and
sufllcient relaxation and rest are
things that must,be done if health
nnd usefulness are preserved.”
Lot the notvous woman sit
down for a moment each mornin«
and deliberately pl.an, her work
for the day. Allow abundant;
time for each task to bo complet-!
od before beginning ajiotiier ;and •
follow tho schedule. Always ih-
elude in;, the. schedule ‘ii 'péi^dd''
of rest;. ■
Perhaps nine out of ten >\4|1-;
ridicule this suggestion and ¡say
it is impossible, and it is inipos- i
sible if you will not try. But ;
those who try it usually succeed,
and what is, more, they soon de
velop an attitude of poise and
self-command which removes _all
probability .of'Jhe need of a roat
in a sanitoriuni. '

the fact that in the beginning: nil

powers were given to the ministiV,
arid that almost all still remain

Representative Methodismilqi-
rectly opposes both these idetts.
It holds that to the ministry^is
given diviné authority to
the 'Gospel, but that authority .'to
rule ;> can only come from tnppe

holds that the New TestameHt:
recognizes but one order 'in| t^
ministry, that of elder, dèacpjis
not being ministers of the Wor^d,

of many a North Carolina farmer,” says the Gastonia Giizctte. That

a chance. This doctrine has been preached in season and out of

"One of the firat thingia tha^ Mr. and Mra. Greene did on their

they then added four dairy cows, two pu.rebred Berkshire brood sows

farm income over since. , : ’
"The gross income for the year 1925 from ju.Mt the livestock

Time For Sale of Memorial Coins
In North Carolina Extended
Until April 1st.
Chairman for North Carolina,
Mr. Cameron Morrison wired the
Stone Mountain Memorial Asso
ciation at Atlanta as follows:
"Inasmuch as North Carolina
has responded so wonderfully in
the short time alloted us to sell
our quota of Stone Mountain Me
morial Coins, I fpel that it is only
fair to the people of this State to
give us until Aprii_ 1st. If you
cannot do this. North Carolina
wiir in-all probability lejid every
Southern State anyway, we are
just like that in North Carolina."
•Tb which reply was' I’eceived
March 12th,as follows:
"Your; wire. You may have to
April first as we will not recall
coins from banka there until that
date.”
This will be splendid news to
the many cities and towns in
North Carolina who really need
more time to sell their quotas.
Already in North Carolina over
100'. towns are organized and at'
work. The City Coins are being
sold at prices of a higher aver
age than any Southern State.
Af'ter April 1st, all coins will
be withdrawn after which date
on Stone Mountain Memorial Coin
can be purchased at the old price
except by , special order. On
April 15th price advances tb$2.00.

Davie County farmers have caught on long .ago, and that ex
plains the ever growing interest which they are taking in the pro-,
duction of dairy cattle, hogs and poultry. The time is not fa^r distant
when the big source of revenue to the Davie farmer will be from the
hog, the cow and the hen. In fact, that might almost be said right
now.
The telephone celebrated its fiftieth birthday anniversary last
week by making it possible for a conversation to be carried on be-
tweenii Lon(>nn and New York.,; The words were aa distirictively
heard as though the line had been only a few miiep long, it ia said.
What will the next fifty years bring up in the way of long distance
communication? There is ne telling. Nearly w w« m ^ think the
telephone jpterfected, the method of long distance communication is

He explained that the estimate
was based on actual recpipts for
the first six months and asserted
that, since the first of the year,
there had boon a “slight de

if continued, Would reduce the

More than three quarters of a century ago a woman in Jackson
County said "dern,” and she regreta it until this good day, so she
tol.d her friends the other day who were asaembled to do honor to
her on the occasion of her 103rd birthday anniversary. If she had
lived to be 103 years old and had done nothing worse than to say
"derri" she ought to forget that slight variance from the fixed rules
of good EngHsh and live happy ever afterwards. But, if at 103
such a light word should cause so much regret, what must be the
regret of some of us who have said regular "cuss words” on nume
rous occasions and at divers times during our earlier years.
If a few more people had the pluck displayed by that Greens
boro motorman the other night when he shot one of two wouldbe
holdups, and, if more people could use 0 revolver with the deadly
accuracy that the Greensboro man did, it would not require the
“strong arm of the law” to put most of ' our highwaymen off the
highways, for it would then be a mighty rial^ thing to attempt to
hold up. a street car or an automobile, either day ior niglit, May
more of the highwaymen get just what the man did who tried to
hold up the Greensboro street car.

Postal business took a .sharp
slump immediately after adoption
of the higher rates, it said; but
it has increased subsequently
with indications that it will re
turn to normal.
This particularly was true of
third class mail, including cirou-
lars and other printed matter, not
including newspapers and perio
dicals.
During the first quarter, after
tJie new rates V'ere adopted, a
decrease of 3.11 per cent com
pared with the same quarter in
1924, was shown, and for the suc
ceeding quarter oi' 6.03 per cent
but, for the last quarter the vol
ume increased 4.11 per cent oyer
the preceding year’s comparabk
fiigures.
Contending the postmaster gen
eral's report proved that the,
higher rates were 0 mistake, Sen
ator McKellor, proposed in his
bill to restore the 1920 rates in
second, third and fourth class
mail and the one cent rate on
postal cards, remove the service
charge on parcels post and pro
vide, a new provision for private
reply postal cards on the permit
system at a two cent rate. The
bill also would restore the “blue
tag rates” for -newspapers and
periodicala to permit their trans
mission through the mails by fast
freight at actual cost.

Sir. A. _L. Wheeler, stale saloa
manager of the Kenton Baking
Powder Company, was in Mocks
ville foi' a few days considering
the advisability of advertising
Snow King Baking Powder here
At the time of leaving he said
“Mocksville has always been
fairly good town for us; I am
now convinced that there are
great many people who would try
Snow King Baking Powder if we
tell them some of its good points
by means of, advertising.”
Until very recently the com
papy has not done any advertis
ing although they have been mak
ing and selling 'baking. powdçr
for oyer fifty years. The sales
liave grdwn to a large figure only
as people have told their friends
about Snow King. There are to
day, many whole communities in
thé South wherè nothing but Snow
King Baking Powder is used,
’Although Snow King Baking
Powder is fully guaranteed

to make a special introductory
offer of a cake pan and cook book
free with, the 25c size can of

BOYS DO FARM BLACKSMITH
WORK IN SCHOOL SHOP
THE MOCKSVILLE. ENTERPRISE
UNION CHAPEL NEWS
Tliursday, March .18, 1926
Should the farmer do any black
smith, work on his farm? The
Agricultural department of the
Mocksville school -answers . yes,
and shows how it may bo done at
a surprisingly low cost for equip
ment. The equipment used in
the shop excepting an old second
hand iron stove for burning coal
may i)o secured at a total cost of
less than $12.00, and will enable
a farmer to do almoat any kind
of iron work needed around thé
farm. Following is a list of the
equipment used with prices taken
from a mailorder catalog;
1 combination drill, visé and
anvir ......4.85
1 ball pien hammer (l%lba) .70
drill bits (round siiank) 1.66
cold chisel (%in) .36
1 adjustable S wrench (Bin) .64
monkey wrench (8in) ..., .89
1 file,(12in) ................ .24
100 assorted' carriage bolts .69
100 assorted machine bolts .72
100 assorted cotter pins .... ■ .18
5 lbs assorted washers....... .38
, Total ................................$10.31
Freight should be less than
12.00.
It is surprising the variety of
metal work that can bo done by
a man handy with tools, using
the above equipment:. The small
coal stove vvith a 'direct draft
demonstrated to the surprise 6f
the boys,that it could bo used to
heat iron to any temperaturo de
sired oven to the extent of biirn
ing into two parts a % inch iron
rodi The forge, one of tho most
expensive items of blacksmith
equipment may be eliminated if
the small upright stove is avail
able. '
Tho tongs for metal work may
bo made from scrap rod iron as
some of the first jvprk in tho shop.
The above outfit, for tho most
part, may be purchased locally
for almost the same price and to
gether with the usual set of
woodworking tools found around
the farm should enable a farmer
to save many expensive trips to
the blacksmith.

ing costs
" service up
Г4 this complicated econonnic age, when coneumns
are dependent upon the efficient performance of in*'
dustry for the necessities of life, it is not only good
business but also an obligation of industry tokeepooets
to consumers down and service to them up.
The Southern Railway System has achieved ojMratihf
economies which enabled it tooperate last year on freight
charges that averaged 16 per cent lower than in 1931.
These reductions applied to the 1925 traffic meant •
saving of $27,000,000 to the shipping public.
And these rate reductions have been effected in spite of
greatly increased taxes. In 1921, the Southern iMdd in
taxes $3.80 of every $100 of its gross revenue, while
last year it had to pay $6.39 of every $100. This increase
in taxes is equivalent to $6,500,000 a year.
The service of the Southern has been kept up. Its capac
ity is larger, and the physical condition of the property
better than ever before.. In fact, it has spent about
$112,000,000 in the last three years in making improve*
ments and for new equipment.
The Southern is rendering a larger and better service
at a lower price, and is promoting the welfare of the
industries and agriculture of the South by keeping its
costs down and its service up.

Mrs. H. G. Kirby, of Chorlotte;
last week heard from her fother,
R, H. Wilhon, at Denver, Colora
do, whom she for 20 years believ*
ed to be dead. She ond her moth
er and a brother were . left 20
years ago in Knoxville; Tenn., by
Mr. Wlshon, whose health was in
bad shape. He wandered over
several states working at odd jobs
until hia health became better
when he located in Denver and
aincD haa becoino prosperous.
North Carolina for once stands
low on tho weekly list of traffic
accidents. Laat wook, according
to tho Associated Press survey,
only two persona were killed in
North Carolina in accidents and
three injured. In fact, the num
ber of accidental deaths and in
juries in tho entire south aho\^ed
a decided falling off. The total
for last week \y1is 37 deaths and
• 253 injuries. ■ Georgia led the
states in the number of accidental'
deaths with 1 0 .Florida came
'next with 8, w'hile none of the
other states had over 4. Florida
Avith 58, led in tho number of
persons injured, with Georgia
next with 45. Arkansas and Ten
nessee each reported no deaths
from accidents.
An increase of 530,396 spindles
in eight cotton manufacturing
states in the South is shown by
a survey completed by David
Clark, editor of the Southern Tex
tile Bulletin, Charlotte. The total
number of spittles in the South
on Jan. 1, 1926, was 17,720,305.
North Carolina led all the states
with 6,106,779. South Carolina
ranked sccond and Georgia third;
The largest percentage .of in-r
crease was shown by North Caro'-
lina with 114,110 new spindles
during the year. South Carolinn
was next and 'Tennessee third.
'Last year,” says Dean Schaub,
"there were 283,491 farms in
North Carolina. This was an in
creaae of nearly 20,000 over tlio
number found in 1920 and when
we consider that only a little ov
er 1,000 of these, farms have
radios, our standing is very low
indeed. This is due in part to
the fact that we have only one
radio stotion, WBT at Charlotte,
which sends, out crop reports and
market news.”
According to Dean Schaub,
there will undoubtedly be a great
increase in the number of radios
on the farms in the near future.
In some states, now, from 25 to
40 percent of tiie farms are equip
ped with this modern source of
information. As a general rule,
farmers havo bought the beat sets
fivailabjo. In 1923 it was found
in a study made by the United
States Department of Agriculture
that on more than 1,000 farms
widely aeattored over tiio country,
the average'cost of the sets was
$175.00. 'roday ■ bettor and more
easily operated'Beta can be bought
for half of this amount.
On account of the strides that
have boon made in porfecUng tho
radio and the'wonderful informa
tion and entertainment prepared
for the different broadcasting
stations, Dean Schaub urges
North Carolina farmera to give
more attention to this new hired
man and; whore feaaiblo, to put

UNCLE SAM’S BOND OFFER
GOES OVER WITH A BOUND
The following létter took second
prize to the 8th grade essay contest :
. "Mocksville, N. C.
"March 3, 1926 "Dear Margaret:
"I visited the Enterprise Of
fice Tuesday afternoon, March 2,
1926, and when, I camo home I'felt
compelled to write a letter to
someone u.vging them to take the
Mocksville . Flnterprise, one , of
Davie countiea beat papera! I
want you to not only read thia
letter, but show it tb your friends,
and 1 hope both will subscribe
for the following reasons:
“My first reason ia, “do you
think we itve giving support
enough to this paper?” Of
course not, ^just think about the
knowledge we get out of the pap
er. .For instance if a man could
not read very well he could take
the Enterprise and practice read
ing a little every day, soon he
could understand what he was
reading bétter and know what was
going on in hie nation," communi*
ty and dear old North Carolina'.
He would hot have to take any
paper but thé Enterprise, because
on the' first page is the news'
abolii what the nation is: dòing,
on another itf tells about>our pwn
statp and its progress and on
another it tells about the people
of your own comniunity.
"My second reason is "the En-^
terprise has just purchased an
electric linotype and therefore
has supported the men who made
the machine.” Should we not
back up our publishers just as
'they do their own makers of the
machinery? Of course wo ahould,
because wo not only support our
country but increase our know
ledge in national, stato and local
government. Tho Enterprise not
only supports the maker but aav-
es a great deal of timo. I was
told that one man could do in nine
houra by tho electric linotype
vyhat five men could do in ten
hours by hand. The price of the )

Advertising pays., If anyone is
inclined to doubt this statement,
we refer him to J. C. Charles,
Mocksville, N. C. Toll the farm-
fers who you are and what you
have to s”ll and keep telling them,
seems to be his motto. And he
has prove.1 that' it pays.
Now, when Mr. Charles became
an Authorized Swift Agent in the
spring of 1926, the fertilizer busi
ness was new to him. His repu
tation as the owner of a cotton
gin'was county-wide, but the far
mers did not think of him when
they considered ¡their fertilizer
heeds, and naturally so because he
had never sold fertilizers. It
seems the flrst one^i in Davie to
learn that Mr. Charles was ex
tending his activities into the
fertilizer, business wore the edi
tors of the two local papers. You
see, he. realized that his job, to
mal(e a success of his undertak
ing, was to advertise and tell the
farmers that he was the local
Authorized' Swift Agent—^that ho
{>ad Red Steer Fertilizers for sale
—and thus tie-up with the Na
tional Advertising Campaign on
Swift’s Red Steer Fertilizers.
Soon after this advertising cam
paign was started, farmers began
to calí oh Mr. Charles, for ferti
lizers. They had seen his ads in
the local papers and wanted to
avail themselves of the service
which ho oiicred. "Advertising
pays,” alllrmed Mr. Charles. "I’ll
do some, more of it.” And so he
inserted a full page, ad in the
County Fair premium list, and
had appropriate wording printed
at the top of his g'n'^iing tickets.
And What were the' results. In
stead of the three or four car
loads which he had estimated he
would sell, Mr. Charles sold ten
carloads—246 tons of Red Steer,
and remember, this was his first
aei^son as an Authorized Swift
Agent.
.1. C. Charles has proved that
advertising in the Mocksville En
terprise pays. It will undoubted
ly help you.

Many of our people were unable
to attend the Sunday school and
preaching services last Sunday.
Tiiere were 165 at Sunday school
and the attendance at both morn
ing and evening hours were smal
ler than for somO time. The at
tendance was encouraging when
we consider the fact that so many
of our people were sick. The
sickness has not been so serious,
but the numbers were large. We
are glad to note that at the pre
sent writing the general condi
tions are better.
The pastor will preach next
Sunday morning on “Epidemics”
"The Flu." What the Bible teach
es about epidemics and pestilence,
why they come. At night on Mos
es invitation to Hobab; "Come
thou with us and we will do thee
good.” No doubt many have ask-
bd themselves why epidemics come
ahd why pestilence and droughts
visit our land? Come out and let
us see some things the Bible
teaches along this line.
Next Sunday afternoon will be
our regular appointment at Jeru
salem. The Sunday school will
meet at two o’clock and the pastor
expects to preach at three o’clock.
There are some indications of
renewed interest and life at the
old Mother Baptist chui;ch, Jeru
salem, in this section. Wo appeal
unto tho friends as well as tho
present membersHip to join and
help us strengthen tho work there.---------------♦---------------- ■

LIFE
A shadow pathway stretches from
the gate
Of childhood’s Eden, through the
morning mist,—
By many other pathway crossed
and crissed.
Yet never lost—a dim, strange
line of fate.
Of time when it was scribed there
is no date;
A million forebears mapped each
turn and twist,
Impassioned lovers spun it as they
kissed, .
And griin-faced soldiers etched
its lines with hate.
But HO it winds. Now un, now
down, across
A dizzy mountain-peak, a forest
dim.
It seeks through flinty ways, or
softest moss
Earth’s convolutions to its outer
rim—
Then dips, as twilight shadows
meet and cross,
To shifting ocean sands—oblivion

HOLDS FIRST SCHOOL
TO ’I'EACII TERRACING
Raleigh, March 17.—Tho first
school to teach a group of intor-
estod farmers tho fundamentals
of terracing was held in Franklin
County on tho farm of J. 0,
Beasley, near Louisburg, during
the last week in February, re
ports A. T. Holman, Agricultural
Engineer for the e.xtension ser
vice of Statu College. ,
Mr. Holman states that a group
of farmers interested in terrac
ing wero invited to his office by
County Agent A. II. Harris and
there were given facts and infor
mation about terracing, how to
handle the instruments for laying
out the terraces and the princi
ples of success in the work. The
whole morning was spent in this
way after which the meeting ad
journed to the farm of Mr. Beas
ley whore actual demonstrations
in laying oft' the terraces were
given. In this work, the instruc
tion of the morning was linked
up with actual conditions in the
field. The men present were di
vided into groups of two each,
two men to run the level .and two
to hold the rod. In each ciise, one
man would take notes while thé
other ran the instrument. Later,
the duties wero changed so that
each man present had actual ex
perience in laying out a terrace
as it should be.
On tho second day, the group
met again and went over all the
work done on the previous ..day.
Quosti'ons were asked and answ
ered and another afternoon of
field work waa put in. An in
teresting part of the school waa

Quickly Stopped
This New Way
It is often surprising how the moat persistent, hacking cough that not only robs you of strength and sleep, but often
leads to more serious trouble, yields
quickly to a simple but woticlcrfiilly
elTectivc treatment.
Tills treatment is baaed on the prescription known aa Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Coughs. You take just one
teaspoonful at bed time and hold it in
your throat for 16 or 20 seconds before
swallowing it. The prescription has a double action. It not only soothes and
heals soreness and irritation, but it
quickly removes the phlegm aiid con
gestion wiiich are the rtai cause of night coughing. So with the cause removed, coughing stops quickly, your steep un-
djsturbud, and, the entire cough con
dition soon disappears.
Dr. King's New Discovery ia for coughs, cheat colds, sore throat, hoarseness, bronchitis,' spasmodic croup, etc.
Fine for children as well as grown
ups—no harmful drues, Economical,
too, as the dose is only one teaspoonful. At all good druggists. Ask (or

NEW RECORD FOR GRAHAM
BROTHERS
Retail deliveries of 1478 Gi'a-
ham Brothers trucks and motor
coaches in the United States and
Canada, during the four weeks
ending January 80, according to
official flgures just ruleased by the
factory at Detroit, showed an in
crease over the corresponding
period last year of 107 a gain of
120 per cent.
The week ending January
16th, with deliveries of 409 trucks
and coaches, was 196 percent a-
head of the corresponding weiek
last year. The week ending Janu
ary with deliveries of 426 units.
“Our production during the
last two weeks in January,” said
a Graham Brothers executive,
"amounted to 1124 triicks and
coaches, a gain of 68 per cent ov
er the corresponding period last
year. We had hoped that our
production through January and
February, which are usually re
garded as slow months for truck
sales, would enable Dealers to
build up stocks in anticipation of
the usual spring demand. It
seems, however, that public re
cognition of the exceptional value
ofTored in those sturdy vehicles i
at tho now low prices foresha
dows demand for tne entire pro/

Mr. Mabee states that upon

whether they are the biting or

and eat the foliage, they may be
controlled by dusting or spraying
with some .stomach poison as arse
nate of lead or calcium arsenate.
If the insects have sucking mouth
parts, that is a bill to puncture
the plant and suck out the sap,
they can be killed by a contact

Premiumij for iiard winter
wheat wore advanced about 2c
per bushel as a result of the
.smaller counti’y niovement. No.

%-12c over the May price, 12 1-2
per cent. 12 1-2 13c over and 13
per cent 13 1-2 14c over. The
demand for soft red winter wheat
showed considerable impi'ovement
because of the light supply and
the reduction of the ofieringä of
western white wheat. Premiums
for No. 2 red winter wheat nt
Kansos City were advanced about
80' per bushel. Prices at other
markets did not share the full
advance at Kansas City but re
ceipts were light and were readi
ly absorbed. Thc Pacific Coast
markets did not follow the decline
in the eastern markets because of
the light marketings by the farm
ers who were not inclined to sell
at the present price level. E\-i<

Wheat Market ^ntinuea Weak.
Corn and Oats Low^ I With
Wheat But Ma|rket Has Firm
er Undertone. Other
Grains Also Lower
Continued weakness in the
foreign, markets coused a furth
er decline in wheat prices in the
United States during the week
ending March 6 , according to the
weekly grain morket review , of
the United States Department of
Agriculture. Prices of other
grains also declined but a firmer
undertone developed in the mar
ket for corn, oats and rye. The
barley market was weak because
of a very poor demand. Flax
prices declined sharply reflecting
the lower prices prevailing in Ar.
gentina, as a result of the largo
supply of flax in that country.
The wheat market situation in
Europe continued very unsatis
factory from the standpoint of
export demand from other sur
plus producing countries. Euro
pean mills continued to operate
upon a hand to mouth basis. Even
the larger mills were not inclin
ed to accumulate stocks because
of’ the difficulty in disposing of
their flour, particularly the lower
grades, of which the supply is
rather large because of the poor
.quality of a large percentage of
the local wheat. Prices of wheat
in these interior European coun
tries are low while crop condi
tions of the winter cereals to date
are good and are an additional
weakening factor in the market.
As a result of this reduced de
mand frorii Europe Argentine
markets have declined and prices
in Canada and the United States
markets have also been forced to
lower levels. Recent private es
timates of the farm stocks of
wheat in the United States iii-Ji-
cate that there is not likely to be
a shortage of wheat in this coun
try until the next crop is avail*
buyers at most of the markets and
trade reports indicate that a flrm-
er undertone was apparently de
veloping.
'fho oats market followed close
ly the trend of the corn market.
Future prices were slightly low
er but the demand for cash grain
continued active with the result
that cash prices were advonced
from a slight discount under the
May prices to a slight premium
over the May at most of the larg-
/er markets.
The rye market showed some
independent strength arid did not
follow the full decline in wheat
prices. There was practically no
improvement in the export de
mand but prices of rye in the Ger
man markets were reported slight
ly higher, which together with
the limited cash offerings in the
United States markets tended to
strengthen the general market
situation.
The barley market was very
dull. The demand for feed barley
was very limited, although best
grades of malting barley continu
ed in fair demand at Milwauke.
Prices declined about 2c at Min
neapolis where quotations at the
close of the week ranged from
50-61-c per bushel. No. 8 barley
at Milwaukee was quoted at 68-
74c. The Pacific Coast markets
were also very dull with a very
limited demand for both the malt
ing and feeding grades. Euro
pean prices were also slightly
lower, new crop California barley
being quoted c. i. f. London at
$1.79-?2.12 per 100 pounds. Old
crop barley for spot sales was
quoted at ^2.06 per 100 pounds.
Raleigh, March 17.—While cot
ton growers of North Carolina
have consistently made larger
yields of cotton per acre than
growers in other Southern State:»,
it ia felt that more attention to
the right kind of feHilizers will
permit of still larger yields be
ing secured.
This is the opinion of C. B.
Williams, head of the Department
of Agronomy at State College.’
Mr. Williams finds thnt the grow-
erS'of this State use commercial
fertilizers about as wisely as the
groi^eiw, ,of any other section.
This is proved by the larger yields
made per acre and one of the
biggest fadiiprs conltributlng to
this leadership has been the aound
judgement used in selecting and
applying commercial fertilizers.
Tests made by the Department
of Agrinimy show that npplicn-
tions of fertilizers have always
increased the ijercontago of cot
ton open at tho iirst picking, 'fhe
tests,also show that cotton opens
more quickly on the sandy loam
soils of the piedmont section. In
creasing the amount of phospho
ric acid in the fertilizor increas
es the percentage of cotton open
at the first picking from 51 to 70
percent. Increasing the nitrogen
causes a thi’ee percent increase in
opening at flrst picking and in
creasing' the potash by certain
amounts causes a diminution of
opening from 70 to 48 percent.
The best fertilizor for cotton
on the average soils of the coas
tal plain has been ^hown to be
about 8 percent phosphoric acid,
5 percent ammonia and 8 percent
potash. This should be used at
the rate of from 600 to 800 pounds
per acre.
The best fertilizer for cotton on
the piedmont soils will average
about 10 percent available phos
phoric acid, 4 percent ammonia
and 2 percent potash. This
should also be used at the rate
of from 600 to 800 pounds per
acre in the drill at planting.
INSECr CONTROL IS
GOOD GARDEN INSURANCE
Raleigh, March 17.—Insects do
thoir maximum injury to the farm
or home garden early in the
spring when the vegetables are
small and tender, but this is also

MOCKSVILLE, N. C., TH URStiAYj: MARCH 1926 я a *
Repiil)lican Primaiy Held Last
Saturday Was A Lively Affair
As usual, ,ihe dope bucket was
overturned |at the Republican
I)rimary hert last Saturday. All
. Ilf the "old timers” prophesied
tliat the, primary would be a calm,
(juiet and stfi'cno affair, handled,
as heretofore, by Mr. A. Grant
in that dictorial manner peculiar
to himself. Instead, the primary
developed into a highly colorful
ailair, devoid of very little busi
ness but affording the gossipers
throughout the county with ma
terial enough to keep their tongu
es busy for many moons.
It developed,, during the course
of the 'primary, ttiot Mr. Grant,
while outlining the principals of
the party, was interrupted several
times by, Mr. Ed H. Morris, local
attorney and also a leader in the
Republican circles; who wanted
to infuse sòme of his doctrinos
into the platform. Becoming tir
ed of Mr. Morris’s continual ab
jections and interruptions Mr.
Grant finally made the statement
that “he was of the opinion that
one who voted the Democratic
ticket two years ago should have
very little say so in the Republi
can party,” jumping tp his feet,
Mr. Morris wanted to know if he
was referring to him, (Mr. Mor
ris). Upon being answered in
tho ailirmativo, Jtr. Morris im
mediately took advnntnge of iiis
. inalienable rights and called Mr.
Grant “n (Ipd-gasted liar,” Mr.
Grant availed himself of tho near-,
est weapon, which happened to
be a nearly lllled cuspidor, and
forthwith ijrpceoded to' bombard
his opponent with solids and
liquids, aaid liquids being the
coiitents I of the cuspidor. Mr.
Morris, from his line of defense,
also found tho lowly cuspidor to
bo a splendid weapon to protect
his rights and hufied his missle
of destruction at Mr. Grant. At
this point friends stopped the af
fray and a certain degree of har
mony , prevailed. However, the
primary had been disturbed too
much to resume work, therefore
it was adjourned.
Interest in the out come of the
personal fight that took place Sat
urday almost transcended other
business that the convèntion on
Monday was' called for, i. e., of
naming delegates to the State,
Congressional, Senatorial and Ju
dicial ' conventions. Mr, Gront,
after a few remarks, left the con
vention to what ever fates there
was in store for it. Chairman
Boyles was the man to spread the
oil on troubled waters and the
convention went along without
having done very much.
It may be added here that this
paper takes the attitude, without
trying to meddle into Republican
conventions, that the affair last
Saturday was very unbecoming to
gentlemen like Mr. Grant and Mr,
Morris. And that if this is the
sort of primaries and conventions
the Republicans are havjng we
rededicate ourselves to the Demo
cratic—Citizen’s ticket, where
gentlemen are gentlemen and not
"spit slingers.”
Monday afterhoon Col. Wm. K.
Clement put a $50.00 fine and cost
on Attys. Morris and Grant for
their jmrt of the "eipit slinging’’
which took place at the primary
Saturday afternoon. The fine
was suspended on good behavior
for a year,

NATION GAINING OVER
TWO MILLION A YEAR
Population Inci-'wuse Since 1920
Census Placed at More Than
'I’en Million
1,629,000 GAIN IN 192S
New York, March 18.—An esti
mated gain of 1,629,000 in popula
tion in the United States last year
was announced today by the na
tional bureau of economic re
search. The indicated gain for
1925 was almost identical with
that for 1924.
The estimated population of
continental United States was
placed at 115,940,000 on January
1, 1926, or a gain of more than
10 millions since the last federal
сепвцв in 1920.
The estimates were reached
principally by a process of figur
es covering the birth and death
registration area, upon arrivals'
and departures from the United
States and upon a recapitulation
of the work done by the bureau irt
former years.
There was a moderate decrease
in the amount of net migration
into the United States, the bureau
said, but it waa offset by a larger
number of births and a smnller
number of deaths.
"The total population gain in
1925 waa slightly larger than the
average for the last 17 years,”
aaid the report, "but materially
less than that of 1923, when tho
large amount ol' immigration con
tributed to a population increaso
of 1,990,000, or’ of 1909, when,
for the samo cause, tho popula
tion growth ran up to 2,173,000.
“During the Inst yenr, immigra
tion played' but a minor role , in
the population growth of the coun
try, accounting for less than one-
sixth of the total increase, the
excess of births over deaths ad
ding 1,367,000 persons, while im
migration accounted for but 262,-
000 new inhabitants.
“It ia a noteworthy fact that,
despite the growth in population,
both the number of births and the
number of deaths were approxi
mately the same in 1926 as in
1909. The year 1909 had an ab-
nornïally high birth rate, and is
therefore not a typical year, but,
since 1916, there appears to haye
been no tendency toward an in-
creose in the number of children
born in the United States, while
the number of deaths tends to
run lower now than 16 years ago.”
The study was made by Dr. Wil-
ford I. King, of the bureau’s staff.

COLONEL COOLIDGE
g ave FARM TO SON
Family Homestead Transferred
’Thrtee Weeks Before Death
Plymouth, : Vt., March 19.—
Three weeks before his death,
Plymouth learned today Colonel
John C. Coolidge transferred to
his son, Calvin, the farm on which
members of the Coolidge fatnily
have lived for generations. The
farm consists of 225 acres with
the white farmhouse wh^ch was
the President’s boyhood home.
Throuehout the Colonel’s life^
time the family property stood in
the nan^e of, his fatl^er, Calvin G;
Coolidg^, The town reçords show
that thc transfer was made from
the estate of C. G. Cool|dge to the
President. ...The Çolonel died ostensibly pen
niless, although a man of вцЬ-
stance. Neighbors say that all
property other than the land was
made over to the Pyeaident dur-
ing his lifetime. Plymouth nev^-
knew the value of the Calvin G.

crecy has been maintained in:^hp
case of the Cpionel’s proçerty.

USURYi CHARGE MUST S T O P . TRUE GREA’TNESS A G À ÌM -^:
COGNIZED. COL. FAIRBROTHER GET!^ ’EM TOLD.', ,
Ten persons arid business iprganizations were indicted for usury
in Winston-Salem last week.. Most of them were thè kind usually
known as money lending sharks. It is-hoped'that they .will beicon-
victed and properly punished, if guiltyi There is entirely top much
of this reckless interest charging. It should be stopped. The la\y
of this state provides that six per cent shall be the legal rate of in
terest, and forbids the charging of a greater rate. /But there are
many moneylenders who ignore this law, and cntçh a fellow in,
iinancial straits and take advantage of the op portunity to extort a
usurious interest rate out of him. Men ahould be taujfht that thia
is a violation of the. law and will not be tolerated.
The Rockingham Post-Dispatch of last Week carried an interest
ing sketch, of the life of Rev. W. K. Coppedge, who for many years
has been superintendent of public instruction 'of Richmond county,
and who has reached the age of 76 years arid is still going strong,
both as un educational worker and as a minister of the. gospel.
Davidson College recently recognized his usefulness, his ability and
his long life of unselfish service and conferred upon him the degree
of Doctor of Divinity. The honor is well merited, and proves thfit
our great educational institutions are taking note of those who are
really worth while. Dr. Coppedge was for a number of years a
member of the BPard of Trustees of Albemarle Norinal & Industrial
Institute, and as such took a keen interest in the work, of that in
stitution. Indeed it Is hard to estimate the value of such a life is
that of Rev. R. R. Coppedge, D. D., of Rockingham, N. C. May he
live and serve .ihuch longer. : > *
No doubt many Mocksville people have in time past received'
by mail bunches, of neckties with instructions to inspect and return
or send in lieu thereof, "check for |2.00.” There are mail order
houses which follow that practice. The other day one of these mail
order houses sent Col. Al Fairbrother, of Greensboro, , just such an
order. The Morganton News-Herald tells it in this wise:
"There are tricks in all trades and you may be very sure that the
mail order houses do not overlook any methods whereby they may
get their goods to an "easy” public. One of the latest sales methods
that some of them have adopted is to send several neckties, or shirts,
or socks, or stockings, etc., with instructions to the receiver to keep
the goods on approval for several days, then to send a check for
¡Si.50 or $2.00 or some amount or return the goods.' Naturally a lot
of folks will "bite” at a proposition like thnt, just as thoy are ex
pected to do. . , , i ■"Col Al Fairbrother, of Greensboro, became tired of this nuisance
a n d wrote ono of the companits, in part, as follows: • , , ,
" 'I am holding the neckties subject to order of sonder, ho being
obliged to send a man ór a personal .representative to do the pack
ing. And for a small fee'll deliver them to him. Ï also charge n
small fee for opening the pncknge, and then charge 10 sents for
ench 24 houra they are in my possession. My fee lor opening n
pncknge of ‘four benutiful ties’ is only 50 cents. Thnt is pretty
cheap but by doing my own washing and ironing I can afford it.
You said to keep the ties five days and then send them back or send
you $1.50. That would make our account stand ns follows, namely:
"'Opening package, 50 cents; five days storage, 50 cents. By
four neckties, $1.50. , t , ,.1." ‘I take it thnt by the time’this reaches ypu and I get another
reply another five days will have elapsed, which, not counting the
50 cent fee for delivering the package on your order to your personal
representative, would make you owe me a balance of 50 cents or ono
dollar. W e will figure that out later.’ ” , , ,, , ...
That’s refreshing. If a few more hard boiled citizens would
do just that same thing, these mail, order nuisances would doubtless

John Gray admitted! that-.; he
planned the entire, murder and
for the purpose of. getting Wat-
kins’ money,, according to the de-
tective-^ray' and SWeat cbnfes-
sed that they together, : killed
“Dad" Watkins With a hatchet, bn
Friday night, October 30. . It will
be. recalled i thot ;on Saturday
night; October 31, the body pf a
man believed: to have been ‘,‘Dad’’
WatklnSi was found in a burning
barn just north of 'Alberaarie. : ; ; ■
T ..V.' Giray, tf’ brother of J(ohn
Gray, was hrrèstèd ' Wedriésday
iiight about 3 o’clock and lodgiid
in the county jail here, having
béen implicated. through ■ the con
fession of John Grdy and. Carl
Sweat. John G.ray : stated that
his brother burned the arms and
head of Wadk'ina in the furnace
of the Wiscassett school building
here, according to Detective.Nlch-
ols, and thnt. ho, John Grny, giivo
part of the money to his brother,,
T. V. Gray.
According to Mr. Nichols, John
Gray nnd Curl Swoat eonfo.ssod
that they killed Wntkins on the
Friday, night bpforo the body wns
found in the burninii barn Sntur-
dny night. Gray and Sweat lured
"Dndr Watkins, into . the country
several miles with a bot'tlc of'li
quor, according to the story told
to Mr. Nichols, pronilsing him the
liquor to di-ink if ho would go with
them. Watkins went , with them
into the couritry and John Gray
and Carl Sweat gave him the li
quor. After a time Wntkins be
came intoxicated from the liquor
which Gray and Sweat had gave
him. Then Gray, according to
Detective Nichols, with an old
rusty hatchet struck the , blow
which killed Watkins. He ,and
Carl S^veat then , searched kh6
clothes of' the slain man and
found a large sum of mòrtey which
they kept. Later, however, John
Gray gave part of the money to
his brothe'i,’.After they had killed Wntkins
they chopped off his arms; and
head, they then, took an old Wan-:
ket and placed the mangled body
upon it, ■ and GVay took one end,
while Sweat topk'the other and
thus they walked arid.carried-the
body to the old barn. They set
the barn on fire the next night,

“COW CAPACITY” KEY TO BIG
MILK PRODUCTION
"Cow Capacity” is what ci'.uses
a cow getting ten pounds of grain
a day to produce 35 pounds of
mil3{, and another cow, under the
same conditions and on exactly
the same kind and amount of feed,
to give only 20 pounds of milk,
says Larrowe Institute of Animal
Economics.
“Producing milk is not mucW
different than producing shoes or
any other commodity except that
we here have to deal with a liv
ing animal with a milk-producing
ability that is more or less in
herited,” according to tho Insti
tute. “One shoe-maker can turn
out a pair of shoes to sell at five
dollars while another cannot af
ford to seir them for less than
seven dollars. There is a big dif
ference in the production costs.
Similar differences hold true in
dairying. The breed of the ani
mals, their feed, the quality of
the animals, and their manage
ment, all have their effect on the
cost of their milk production. A
good dairyman may be able to
produce milk at a price that would
flnanciaily cripple another dairy
man.
“Feed is the largest single item
in milk production. It, takes
about the same amount of feed to

they can do this, for overliead

A DOG GONE GOOD WAY TO
GET HURT
Political aspirants have often
given practical demonstrations of
the gentle art of mud-slinging,
but it remained for two Republi
cans of Mocksville Township to
discover and substitute a new and
moro elTectivo mode of political
warfare, to wit : tho manly art of
spit-slinging..
By the way, would it not be in
order now, as a means of streng
thening our national defense, to
suggest to the' War Department
the adoption of the spittoon as a
necessary part of the army’s
equipment? Hand grenades so
often prove to be "duds,” while
spittoons; if properly loaded, aim
ed and discharged, aro infallible
agents of destruction.
As regards the political hopes
of some of our Republican friends,
tho spittoons duel of jast Saturday
put all of the “expect” into "ex
pectoration.
f'
good ;loglc in the claim. That
healthful mentar exorcise is good
for the health ;the same as is phy-
eical exercise, there aro none who
will dispute; So l«oep your mind
.'and your body employed in soijne
useful work, if you would live to
-- be Vpry old. v-
with all tt^e.progress which has
vljeen ,-made along other lines in
this '¡county during the past flf-
teen t 9 r. twenty, years, no other
business hasi made more rapid
progress, nor .1- undergone more
iomplete changes than methods of
: fanrdng. Legumes, deep plowing,
intensive, shallow cultivation in
summer, with terracing and lovel-
ing of rows, have completely re-
VolutioniKod farming in this coun
ty. And our best farmers are
. still, learning more and more each
year. That is wliat accounts for
the greater) production per acre
with less effort. In our Davla
Cdunty farms are reflected intel
ligent thinking, and thinking, aft
er all, is what makes t^ world go
round.
It is a little bit disconcerting
to be called a ''derned liar” pub
licly, even if the charge be cor
rect, but when the appellation in
cludes the term "infernal"—well,
isn't that calculated to make a fel
low hot?

SATURDAY. MARCH 271h
The charter, meetin'g of thè
Lions Club of Mocksville. whicli
was held, Saturday night in tho
Masonic Hall, was pulled'off in
typiciil Lions’ style and furnish
ed ample proof of the fact that,
as a civic organiüation designed
to promote the best interests of
the community, the club is going
to develop into the liveliest and
most energetie group of businbss
and professional men this old
town hns ever seen banded togeth
er in its behalf,
; Plates were provided for seven
ty-five Lions and guests and every
seat was filled when the meeting
Was called to order at' eight o’
clock by .Judge G. H, Hastings,
District Governor of Lions Intex'-
national. SongSj yells, jokes
short talks and stunts featured
the early part of the meeting, and
talks by Di', Lawrence, Charlie
Smithdeal and Tom Cash, of the
Winston Club, Clyde Sterns of
the Statesville Club and Lion
Woolen of the Kernersville Club,
constituted the major portion of
the serious side of the program
Tho charter was formally pro
sented in behalf, of Lions Inter,
national by Lion Tom Cash,
former son of IJavie ,county,
whose,attractive speech was oasi
ly the feature of the occasion
The speech of acceptance was de
livered by Robert S. McNeill
President of the local club,
Tho meeting was in every re
spect a profound success and it
is with regret that we can not
give it more space in this issue
of thé Enterprise,.but due to the
handicaps incident to moving into
new quarters and on account of
tho mass of other local news that
we are required to carry this
week, we are compelled to elimi
nate reference to many details
conected with Charter Nighe
which, we are sure, would prove
of deep interest to our readers.
However, wo aro glad to give the
Lions an added boost and declare
again, they constitute tho com
munity’s largest and . strongest
commercial and professional as
set.

Washington, March 20.—A con
certed campaign against the cat
tle tick in tho South by federal,
state and local authorities, which
it is hoped wIliI eliminate the
.pest from all the Atlantic rtates
north of Florida, is about, to be
begun. AlabaAia will join in the
fight with the expectation of riil
ding the state of the ticks that
still are found in a few counties
here.
Florida is to make a drive
against the pest in the counties in
the northwestern part of tho state
contiguous to Alabama, and, as
the state eliminated the insect in
seven counties last year, it is be
lieved by department of agricul
ture authorities that the maintain-
ancc of the 52-mile long quaran
tine fence along the Georgia-
Florida lino will not be needed
much longer.. The fence was
erected by Georgia after that state
had freed Itself of cattle ticks in
order to prevent infested animals
from' Florida crossing the border.
North of Georgia the only tick
infestation section is found In
tl|ree counties in Virginia and two
in South Carolina.

WHAT ARE THE DUTIES OF
COUNTY VViSLFARE OF
FICERS?
Mr. EditoTl ------— " v
May I be permitted to have
the privilege of using'the'col
umns of your valuable paper,
long enough to ask what the duti
es of the County Welfare Offlces
are? If I know my herirt I am
in . hearty sympathy • with any.
thing that is for the moral uplift
of the county, and I believe those
in \charge did a wlso thing in
creating the office. But there is
such a thing ad using the offices
in a manner that causes us to
lose some of our respect for the
office. During our present term
of court, the welfare officers
marchcd 2 small boys up before
his Honor in the presence of a
large crowd of people in such a
manner as to cast a reflection on
the school and on the home. Prof.
Staton and the homes that were
affected have a just cause to feel
humiliated. I have always
thought that welfare work started
when tho home and the school
could not have the desired re
sults. If I am mistaken as to the
duties of welfare officers along
this line, I am ready to apologize.
But allow me to say in conclusion
as a taxpayer and a citizen that
if the welfare officer has super
vision of the home and tho schools
of the county, that we raise her
salary, or furniah her an aaslst-
,ant. Yours very truly,
F. M. CARTER.

They have passed rapidly and 'it

united with the churches by trans

time in which the people had only
haji. time in.the Mills ап(1 the re

will executed more than a year
before he ended his own life by
poison last June, Dr. David Reit
er suggested that his wife hang
herself. Declaring that she had
"nagged" him for 26 years, the
will directed that she be given
only ?1 of his $150,000 estate and
suggested that this be used to"
purchase a rope to form, the noorfe.
The document, dated August,

a citation be issued against the
widow, Mrs. Laura Reiter, to
show cause why letters of admin

It was believed Reiter had died

TRUTH, HONESTY OF PURPOSE AND UNTIRING FIDELITY TO OUft COUNTY
Great Tractor Deiiionetratien
By Sanford Motor Co. Sat.
Because Henry Ford gave the
country a good practical auto-
mobiië at a low price, and because
of the universal popularity of
that machine, few folks think of
him as having done even more to
wards modernizing agricultural
methods. But, nevertheless, he
has possibly done more for the
world through the production of
improved farming machinery,
than through the automobile busi
ness. This was improssed upon
the Enterprise last Saturday aft
ernoon while we were attending
the tractor demonstration given
on thé Gaither iarm, just outside
of the city. This Fordson trac
tor demonstration waa put on by
the Sanford Motor Company, lo
cal Ford dealers. Two modern
tractors were pulling mammoth
plows, which 'were tearing out
eighteen inches of dirt a depth of
around a foot at one furrow.
Watching these tractors work, one
was forced to the conclusion that
one man with one^ of those pieces
of modern farming machinery
could do more plowing, and bet
ter plowing, in a day than'tour
men and eight horses could do.
Many of thc more progressive
farmers are learning what this
means to the modern farmer, and
are equipping their farms with
Fordsons and other modern ma
chinery. A large crowd wns pre
sent at the tractor demonstration
Saturday, the farmers nnd on
lookers having come in regular
stream.“), during the afternoon
FIREMEN OF THREE CITIES
BATTLE FLAMES IN STAT
ESVILLE LUMBER YARD

Statesville, N. C., March 31.—
A raging fire fanned by a gale
from southwest, destroyed about
fifty thousand dollars worth of
lumber belonging to Hutton Bour-
born and Co., today at their yards
OH Diamond Hill, one mile cast
of the station. The fire, starting
about 9 o'clock this morning in
some unknown manner in an old
fertilizer warehouse, quickly
spread to thè nearby lumber pack.
The fire department of States
ville, Mooresville and' Salisbury
got to the raging flames and under
control by 3 o’clock this after
noon, but thc firemfin had to keep
on the job until late tonight. Two
water mains were tapped and the
firemen had to use four pumps.
The fire was in the manufactur
ing district and Morrison Mfg. Co.
Sherrill Greene Furniture Com
pany, Statesville Chair Company,
and other plants wei-e in danger.
The strong wind blowing the
flames away from factories ai<led
firemen in their eft'orts.
The intense heat bent some of
the rails on t he main lino of Sou
thern Railway and delayed trafic
some time. The lumber destroy
ed was pine and oak.

be convinced that ‘‘it pays to ad

Not only was the Fordson de
monstrating what it could do as
a plow puller, but placed down on
the field near where the plowing

a fine new saw-miil being pulled
by a Fordson tractor, and it was

It .is nothing short of wonder

WILL NEVER FORGET DAVIE
Editor Mocksville Enterprise,
Dear Sir:
Inclosed find my check for
?1.00 for your paper of my old
home town. ’I shall never forget
those grand old days I spent in
and about there with the good peo
ple of Davie. I have a lot of
friends and relatives, I shall nev
er forget, yet" I was only a boy
of 14 years when I left there 29
years ago with my father on a
Wagon for old Caswell county,
and today I must say I expect to
vi.sit Mocksville again before
'ong, as the Lord has opened up
the way, using jnen of great know
ledge to bring the world together
ior his coming again.
Just think, 29 years ago, 3 da'ys
to make this trip; now 4 hours,
by machine, and good roads.

“I certainly learned a lot dur
ing the two days I was in De
troit," R. B. Sanford, local Ford
dealer, said upon his return home
from the Motor City, where he
spent two days visiting the big
plants of the Ford Motor Company
along with a number of other
Ford dealers from this territory.
"It has been a great education
to nie,” he continued. “I never
imagined anything so enormous.
“We arrived early in the morn
ing, our train being switched
right into the yards of the. High
land Park Plant. Then began an
interesting two days. First, we
went through the Highland Park
plant—that is part of it, the most
interesting divisions. You know,
they told us that the area of thiii;
plant is 278 acres with 105 acres
of it under roof.
“But that is nothing compared
to the River Rouge plant where
the big operations are carried on.
There is where raw materials are
transformed and come out in the
form of parts for Ford cars.
“And buildings] Say, you
should see thc new building for
pressed steel operations. That’s
a real building, one story high,
mostly glass and it covers eight
seres of ground. Why if they
would clear out the machinery in
that building there would be en
ough room 0 nthe floor to park
more than 5,000 Ford cars.
“We also visited the big engi
neering laboratory at Dearborn,
the Ford Airport and the Lincoln
car plant,
“Things that impressed me most
aside from the buildings and ma
chines, were the cleanliness about
all the plants, the safety devices
and methods to prevent accidents
and the absence of any real hard
human labor. Machinery is made
to do all the hard work.
“Another thing, w«s the pre
cision of manufacture. Every
part is made to exact measure
ment and though manufacturé
proceeds rapidly there is no let up
in inspectiôn. Every part must
be of correct dimensions other*
wise assembly of cars oij:the scale

are not quite through arranging eyerythirig , just like 'We want it,
for we had to move and get out the liáper all in the flame Week, and,
too, We have regular weekly job w^^rk that must còme out the same
as the Enterprise does. Our readers can, thereforé, see that lA/e
have had no rosy time the past seveh days, during the moving period..
If the paper does not exactly conle Up to Standard this v/eek, thle
moving spell will explain, and wé hope our readers will overlook
any short comings in the meantini'e. ,
The Enterprise’s new Home iSjáecidedly éreditabie, for a weekly
newspaper. It compares favorably with the best bUsine-ss houses
,in the town and is, we think, quibt an addition te Mocksville. It
fills in another gap and is just another small atep towards building
up the business section of the town.
Now thnt we are in our new büllding, we w;ant to ^xtend a gene
ral invitation to ali our subscril^rs and friends in this and ad
joining counties to come in and see Us and look over our shop. We
have an excellent equipment and believe thc work of getting out,
oven a weekly paper, wiU be of Interest to those who may not have
taken the pains to visit a newspaper plant in the past few years.
Just lift the latch string and walk right in any time you are in town
and toll us that you came in to see our new place. We shall take
pleasure in showing you over and explaining anything to you.
Since the pro.4ent owner.4hip took charge of the Enterprise in
the summer of 1Я20, we have striven to buiid up the paper and the
plant, and while we have not yet I’eached our goal, wu feel that we
have donó remarkably well, getting out in the meantime a newspaper
which has commanded the respect of the readers ji this county
regardless of politicial or religious aiTliiatious. This sLutement is
born out by tile fact .that the paid up circulation of the piiper is now
much more thnn three times as large ,as it was when wo took over
the paper in -lune, 1920. That’s going pretty well, if we do say it
About
KEEP HISTORY STRÁlOHt
The pre.Ment ownership of this paper has an idea that a local
newHpuper should enter thoroughly into, and become a part of the
life oi’ tho community, a pulsing, e(iective force. With this idea
bei'ore us, we have tried to make tji^' podple, especially of this town
and community, feel that tho Mockaville Enterprise in a sort of com
munity proposition. .That is, we.'-^av? tried to make you feel that
it is a. sort oT public •instituUb'n^rdeiiicttted.rto- (be upbuilding,, (hi
progress and the development of< thls'com'munity in' every way, We
want you to feel that the Enterprise is yours in a m\.iii»ure, fejr in
truth it is. Whilo. it is a piece of privately owned'property, its mis
sion is something more thnn an ordinary business, a money making
institution^ It is an instifution designed to t)ervt> the whole com
munity iuid its people. So we would have our readers catch a vision
of a homo newspaper, in the person of the Enterprise, as something
like our public school system, our public highways, our court house
and other institutions really and truly the property of the people.
Come in, when in town, therefore, and see where YOUR newspaper
—Davife County's Newspaper, is pub'lshed.
If this paper is here to serve this county, and if it does serye
the county, it must have the support of the people in a whole heart
ed manner, for just in the measure which we receive the support
of the people of this section, will we be able to serve them in re
turn. It takes money and a hea pof it to run a good weekly news
paper. When you realize that the equipment of a good weekly news
paper costs as much as the entire capital stock of a good sized bank,
or a large mercantile business, and that it miist take care of a week
ly payroll of from $75 to $250 weekly, it can be see that a newspaper
does not run itself by any means, but that it takes money and a
lot of hard' work, and sti'l more hard thinking.
There are many ways in which a conimunity cap lend its aid
;and support to the home newspaper. First, by suTJ^vribing to the
paper and keeping paid up promptly. That support must be forth-
coming,'Otherwise no newspaper can make it, even for a short while.
Then, too, thc local merchants must lend their aid by advertising.
And by this the paper is helped, but the merchants are helped still
more. That is one instance in which the newspaper can serve both
the readers and the local Business organizations. Another way jn
which the people of a community can help the home newspaper to
serve them and the community, is by patronizing its job department.
Most of the money taken in by a weekly newspaper, comes in through
the job department and through advertising. The money realized
from the subscriptions amounts to little, comparatively. It would
not even pay for the stock on which theinewspaper is printed.
