These have been busy and happy years. They have passed rapidly and 'it seems^ almost unbelievable that it has been so long, but the fact ia evident when we consult the cal endar. ' One hundred have been received upon profession of faith into the fellowship of the two cherches. Ninety-sevep ' have been'■ baptized . and three awaits baptism. Quite a good many have united with the churches by trans fer by letter. Our church flhanc- 03 have done well; but the long time in which the people had only haji. time in.the Mills ап(1 the re moval of Home of our most liberal givers, has made the last several months rather diilcult to carry on the work up to the former, stand ard. However the outlook is more hopeful how, as tho people havo had full time work and the In fluenza seems to be passing. Wo expect our people to rally to the support of the work as the Lord blesses them. If every one would give on the Lords Day as the Lord has/ prospered them—that ia ev ery" one giving every Sunday, a proportionate part of- their in come, we would have funds to meet all our obligations. Yes we would be able to greatly enlarge our work for the Master. The pastor expects to preach at Cooleemee, both morning and .night next Sunday. The morning subject will be the “Church Slack- ’’ at night, “Invmortality.” 'Come thou with us and we will do thee good." You can help us.

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 SIX HOURS 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. G. N. Hutton, general manager of Hutton Bourborn Company was called here from Hickory today, lie figures the loss at forty to fifty thousand dollars with no in- Now That .We Arc InO^iirNew Home, We Just A Few Confide|tial Words With The People Of This Cpniiiitiriity.

Tho entire large, number who attended learn ed of' the demonstration through ihe columns of the Enterprise, Canford Motor Company having run a good sized ad the week be fore. Mr. Rufus Sanford must be convinced that ‘‘it pays to ad vertise in the Enterprise.” 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 demonstration ,was going on, was a fine new saw-miil being pulled by a Fordson tractor, and it was rijiping up great logs as though driven by a powerful steam en gine. It .is nothing short of wonder ful to contemplate the {.»reat im provements which have come about in methods of farming dur ing the past few years. With all our modern progress in all other lines, it might he safe to say that in no other line of endeavor have gieiiter strides been made during the past ten years than in methods of farming. 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. 1 thank you for paper this week. Yours respectfully, W. W. McGuire.

FROM FORD PLANT We wiish to thank all the dear kind friends for the help given and the loye, kindness and symijft- ‘hy showh'UB during the illness •nd death of our darling Frank, for the beautiful flowers. May «od keep yoU all in hi« tender and flitally bring ua all to the hea^ifuV' home 'where there « pb 8oriw^Mi% and <5«oi^ “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 on whjuh Ford .production: is car ried -oiil ijWould be in^poaaible; : I; wish i '^Mà Impart to all " We are now comfortably located In our new Home on the square just along side thc Southern Bank &.

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.

Mr, Wes- ton and others point out a numb er of significant facts which make it easy to believe that Ney was not executed as ordprell by cham ber of Peers for his effort to re store Napoleon to the throne. . Ney’s'éxecution was ordered to take place on the plains of Gren- ole, but according to a newspaper account of^ “the execution'■ \yas in, a clandestine manner for a 1 who were connected with №|s detestable transaction w ffre ashamed of it.” . : The Duke bf Wellington at the time one of the most powerful figures in Europe, sought to ap peal for clemency for Noy, who, according to the stipulation of the surrender of Paris, was to be granted amnesty. . , u 4.He was also ordered to be snot by his own men and various his torical data varies in the number of bullets, taking effect. The burial was held before day break, and not even attended by his wife who loved him devotedly. In Mr. Weston's book he quoted from Mr. Thomas F, Houston, of Houstijjiia, Mo.: "In tho fall of 1864 I read in a Dayton paper the account of an interview between a Journal re porter and an old French soldier, Philip Petrie, who had once be longed to the command of Marshal Ney. He stated to tho reporter that after the fall of Napoleon and tVie capture of Ney, he desert ed the French army and shipped as a seaman on board a vessel bound from Bordeaux to Charles ton, S'. C. He noticed after sailing, a man whoso appearance struck him very forcibly as ono who he ought to know. At last it fiashed across his mind that it was his old commander. Marshal, Ney. He sought the first opportunity to satisfy himself, and the next time the mysterious personage ap proached him ,and told him ne thought he knew him. He re plied, ‘who do you think I am, Petrie answered ‘My old com mander, Mar-shal Ney.’ In a gruff tone the man responded, ‘Marshal Ney was executed two weeks ago in Paris,' and turned around, walked to his cabin and was not soon again on deck durr’ ing' the entire voyage of thirby- eightàlays. Petrie said he knew Marsiial Ney was not executed. P. S. Ney was recoginzcd in Georgetown, S. C., as Marshal Ney by some French ' refugees, had freciuently seen Marshal l>ey in Prance, according to Chapman Levy, a distinguished South Caro lina lawyer.; Ney, left Georgetown and was never seen there again, Col. J'oiin A. Rogers, of I'lor- .enco, is quoted by Mr. McCubbhis in his paper as .saying that l . fa. Ney aihieared there' in 1819 as a French refugee and left in lp2l, sh<?rtly aftw hf arrived, he disr missed school, spent, several days in, his room .where ^ burned,;a la rg e ouanttty-of;papèvs,;ancl pei:', room where he had cut his throat, but as the blade of bhe knife was broken his life was .saved. After being reproached he said: “Oh; Colonel, with tho death of Na poleon my last hopes are gone.” .He disappeared shortly after- 'w'ards. Otiier evidences bf his recogni tion and disappDflrance are quoted by prominent people in Statesville and other places. •, . Rev, Mr. Sadler, of Pennsylva nia, ■ a French colonel who was sentenced to be shot with Ney says; “One of Ney’s influential friends had charge of-the execu tion, and halted the squad at a lonely place on the way to the appointed place of execution. There Ney was placed against a blank wall and the soldiers fired, directing their aim, however, at a point .fust above tho head. The empty cofiln was duly buried, but the supposed occupant was in the meantime making a swift journey for America. After several years spent in close retirement and study, he put in his appearance in Rowan county. North Carolina, and opened up a private school .for boys.” . . '. 'Virtually all of the data in the above article was secured from the paper of B. D. McCubbiiis, .who has studied the various writ- 'ings On P. S. Ney «tid tho, Doubts as to MarshaT Ney’s Execution.

YOUR HEALTH i "Slenderizing” “Jack Spratt would eat no fat ' His wife would eat no lean,’ ..1, And so between the two They licked the platter clean.” “ PioaSe send a diet list that wil), increase weight and also a diet list that will reduce weight. My husband is so skinny he looks like he might~have T. B., while I am considerably overweight and wish to reduce.” This inquiry came in the morn'-' jng mail and, being one among many, .Illustrates an, obscession of the^ public mind today. Frpm everywhere comes a clamor frbm the plump for something to make j them thin and from everywhere eon;es a clamor from tho thin for something to make them plump., It seems hard to find the “hap:- py medium.’’: Our drug stores are- filled , with , "tonics" and Hyitlf "weight reducers.” People spend thousands' of dollars for fat '.re.- movers, not so much because they realize that overweight la danger ous, but because the women wish to be in style and appear slender and supple and the men wish to appear athletic and muscular. Style and public opinion are pow erful factors in our daily lives. When Simon says "Thumbs up’’ or "Thumbs down,” everybody must do what Simon says and woe betide the hapless person who puts thumbs up or down wlien Simon doesn't say it. Underweight is a menace,.' es pecially to the growing child, and overweight is menace, especially when it comes on* in middle life. The child is very active and- needs a corresponding amount of building food. The child is bound to be active and will burn up its building food for fiiel if the fuel food is inadequate. For the'child,: underweight is dangerous. The adult does not grow and the sedentai’y adult needs little building or repair material. When such person eats to please the ap petite, regardless of body needs, the excess is stored up as fat. There should always bo some sur plus but when the surplus becom es excess, it is dangerous.

Last year, 1925, neering, agricultural economics, ‘ sorghum produced 18 tons against foods, nutrition, clothing, home 12 tons for corn on the Experi- management, house furnishings, I ment Station farm at State Col- health and sanitation, and com-: lege. Sorghum is more drouth- munity activities. As an example in soil improve ment, the report cites the fact that the agents were instrumen tal in having 197,163 tons of ground limestone used under their direction last year. This is a tremendous increase over 1924, it is stated. Over 12,000 farmers followed better practices of using commercial fertilizers. In farm crops, about 19,000'farmers used improved seed • of • the , various ; gri^in crops for the fire|,time last year, the report says,' and with legumes, the number wae larger, due to the increased popularity of soybean growing made possible by the work of the field men. In the field of horticulture, the report shows that there, were 8,- • 277 farmers reporting improved practices with fruit trees, 199 with bush and small fruits, 234 with grapes, 5,794 with gardens, and 368 in improving the home grounds. In forestry, 364 farm ers adopted better methods of handling their farm woodlots. < In livestock, improved practices in daisy husbandry were carried out on 8,772 farms, with beef cat- ^ tie on 277 farms, with awina one 2,005 farms, with sheep on 214 farms, and with poultry on 6,- 973 farms. The agents helped to build 240 modern poultry houses which giv es an indication of the increased popularity of poultry growing in the stft,te. Dean Schaub points out Many acres of farm lands were terraced and drained, a number of water systems were installed, sewerage systems were added, and other matters of rural engineer ing were given attention. The agents helped over 79 different groups of farmers to buy and iell produce and supplies co-'opera- tively with the amount of the sal- «8 running into the thousands of dollars. In the work of the home agents, the figures in the report show that improved practices with ro,-- ference to foods were carried on in 10,584 hom,es, nutrition prob resistant than corn and a fair crop may be produced when the ^ corn crop is a failure. “Neither i is sorghum easily stunted by a drouth during the growing sea son.

Immature sorg^hum' makes, an apid siiage which iit, iinpala^à^le, low in feeding vaiiie and does not keep well. The crop should be cut in the advanced dough stage, when the seed cannot be crushed between the fingers. At this stage, the sorghum silage is just as good as that from corn and in some cases, better; Mr. Kime states that the heavi est yielding and the best varie ties of sorghum for silage are Honey, Red Amber and Sugar Drip in the order named. The Honey is a late variety and should not be planted in the upper pied mont and mountain sections. Mr. Kime states that sorghum silage is about ten percent less valuable for milk production than corn silage. In other words, 11 pounds of sorghum silage is re quired to produce as much milk as 10 pounds of corn, silage will produce. Yet this is ovei’come by the greater yield and in the end, the sorghum silage will produce more milk than will the corn.---------------*--------------- NOTICE!

The Enter prise. ; PPLICES VERSUS POLITICS In a recent issue of The Enter prise this newspaper suggested to the vo^rs of Davie County the periect propriety and present ne cessity of departing from party alignments in the approaching election, and urged them to use the ballot as an instrument to put a swift end to the pernicious “hand-picking” method of select ing county ofllcers, which has been so long In vogus among them. At the time this sugges tion was made, full and ample reasons were given therefor. In brief, these reasons may be sum med up in a single phrase; Polici es, not Politics. As stockholders, interested, in the managemtnt of this big Davie county corpora tion, the electorate of the coUnty should require complete banish ment of partisan tactics in the selection ¡o|f the directorate to control the: administration of its affairs, and adopt in lieu thereof a definite policy of voting only for I men or women who aro best fitted and qualified to discharge the duties and obligations of the several county offices. The recent Republican wrangle which finally resulted in a cri minal proceeding before a magis trate and the sentencing of two prominent lawyers to a term of “good behavior” for a period of twelve months, fully ju.stifies our claim that partisanship, when practiced to even but little ex tent, develops into a quality of blind fanaticism which not only defeats the best of good purposes, but renders ultimate disaster al- this meeting, for tho adoption by^ and A.

FIGURES SHOW PROGRESS OF EXTENSION WORK lisands of .the riirai people of the State with messages of improved conditions and it appears that the State now has a program of pro gressive agricuiturni achievement f not exceeded by any State in the Union. —TO A SNOWDROP— Raleigh, March 31.—The statis- ticnl summary of county agfjnt work ns conducted by the North Carolina State College last year shows that real progress wa's made in spite of the generally' unfavorable season, states I. 0. Schaub, director of agricultural extension. , I Including farm,, home, and negro agents, there wero 181 such workers employed jointly by the College, Federal Department of Agriculture and the counties co operating. These agents carried out an extension program in 2,- 255 communities and enlisted the support of 3,136 local leaders in furtl^ering the work. They also had the support of 1,340 leaders among the young people. There were 974 organized clubs of young folks and 1,043 clubs with adults. The membership in these orgar nized clubs rconsisted of 4,592 boys, 17,090 girls, 9,394 men and 15,791 women. The farm agents visited 26,554 different farms oii 61,169 different occasions. Thd home agents visited 13,872 homes on 17,765 occasions. The agents also had 149,734 calls made at their offices o.nd 68,779 calls over the telephone. They held a total of 21,137 various kinds of exten sion meetings and gatherings at which there were 803,392 persons. Director Schaub,states further that demonstrations were made with soils, farm crops, horticul ture, forestry, rodent control, animal husbandry, dai}-y husbaii'- dry, poultry growing, rural engi neering, agricultural economics, foods, nutrition, clothing, home management, house furnishings', health and sanitation, and in com munity activities.

R. Hudson of the farm demonstration division at State College. “ Our soil and climate are well ndnpted to grow ing more than forty different va- rities, some suitable for the sum mer and others for the winter sea son, The most exacting may have his wishes gratified in this mat ter.” Mr. Hudson, in urging the im portance of gardens, states that the right kind of vegetables, pro perly prepared, is essential for the continued good health of hu man beings. Vegetables are valu able for tho minerals which they contain, for their appetizing qua- litlas, their flavor and appearance and for the bulk which they add to the food material, ' Most of them contain vitamins, n most es sential element of food, • “Now,” says Mr, Hudson, “a good :garden supplies' all • these things. It also reduces tho food bills for the family. It giits the women and children out into the sunshine ajid furnishes interest ing employment. The man of the house should always prepare the ground and get the plant beds ready for tho seed, but then the women and children can help some. To have a. good garden, one must prepare for it. A sui table place near the house should bo selected, the nren should be fenced and the soil well broken nnd harrowed. Broadcast with stable manure and apply commer cial fertilizer at the rate of from 800 to 1,000 pounds per acre. The whole garden should be cultivated every ten dayt or two weeks.” Mr. Hudson advises prospec tive gardeners to send to the Agricultural Editor, State Col lege, for copies of Folder 11 and extonaicn circulars 122 and 123 which give late facts about suc cessful gardening.-----------------Ф----------------- NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION Notice is hereby given that the partnership heretofore existing between E.

In this is sue the Agricultural class gives a safe set of rulss which it has worked out for feeding the yoiing chicks. Correct Feeding Will Save Many u Chick’s Life. "How shall I feed the young Ichicks” is a question frequently liiaked this time of the year by Ipersons who are trying to raise Ichicks with an incubator and Ibroocler and mOat of them find out |sooiier or. later that it is a highly limportant question. Following is In condensed set of rules that has Ibeen found to,give excellent re- jsuits where tlie chicks receive Ipropor care otherwise: I First two days (at least) feed [nothing at all. First week. Equal parts boil-, led eggs cut fine, bread crumbs I and oatmeal. . Feed dry on clean I paper five times per day all they I will eat in'^15 minutes then re- (move. 'Give sour milk in morn- Jirig and .water Jn afternoon. Keep I aaiid before them. Second week until fifth week. Feed equal parts bran, shorts, corn meal, oatmeal, and 1-4 part bone meal. Keep in mash hop- •per, before chicks and febd crack ed grain in litter morning and night with some green food chop ped up for them at noon. A. very small amount of salt should be in the mash and sour milk and water given as before. Let them exer cise in sunshine. ' Fifth week on. From this time on the feeder can choose pretty safely his own ration and if he wishes to push their growth can gradually change tp n yvet mash- with sour milk if this is carefully fed. A good mash is 1 part ground oiits, 1 pari; shorts, 1 part bran, 1 part corn meiil, 1-2 paVt fish meal. A mall ariiount of salt ahd charcool chould be added and cracked grains fed in litter twice a day. Provide greens if possible. If it is preferred n good grade of commeriial starting food and growing mash may be used with excellent results by following closely directions with feed. I DAVIE HAS ENTERED OBSERVER SPELLING BEE Davie county is entered in The I Observer stato-wido spelling bee I lioart and soul. ■ Acceptiince of tho new’spaper’s I invitation to join has been sent I tho Spoiling ,Bee Editor, in Char lotte and rules and regulations I for conducting the bee have been forwarded here. Soon,every school in tho coun ty, from the fourth grade up to tho high schoola, will be spelling in preparation for the big county wide finals, to be held at tho county seat at a stated time. The exact date of the county finals will' be, sot by the county and city school superintendents. Every 'school pupil in the coun ty, regardless of age, is eligible to the bee, which is going to be an old fashioned revival of interest in educational matters. Every school, both city and county, graded, independent, par ochial and consolidated is enter ed and all will select their school champions. All school champions in the county will meet at the county seat and spell until the champion of the county is found. County champions will go, to Charlotte to compete for one of the big prizes, offered by The Observer, at the all territory finals, in May. The first of these prizes will be $100; second, $50 and third $25. The big prize for the county champions, of course, ia the trip to Charlotte, where they will be royally entertained at the best hotels in the city. The Observer Will arrange a theatre party and automobile rides over the, city, • But every school speller is to have an award, a handsomely print ed certificate, countersigned by the school superintendent In addition the champion spel ler of North Carolina will be sent to Washington, D. C., in June by The Observer to take part in the Second National Spelling Bee. All expenses of this trip, including a chaperon, will be paid by The Ob server. In Washington more than twenty champions will compete for .?2000 in gold. A five-day sight-seeing tour and other enter tainment is in store for the North Carolina champion. Parents too, aro taking an intense interest in the forthcoming spelling bee. Parent-Toachor associations are invited to attend-the bees at the school, to hold bees of their own, and luncheon and business men's clubs have been asked to boost spelling by turning some of thoir weekly meetings into spelling bees. New Way to Stop Night Coughing Simpl* Method arinss QHlok For almost instant relief from hack* night treat-.................................... _ sdoae, stops all irriUtion and permit» sound sleep the whole night through. This treatment is based on the pre> scrlption known as Dr. King’s New DiKoveryforC^ughs. You simply take one teaspoonful at bed-time and hold it in the. throat for 15 or 20 seconds before swallpwing it The prescription has a double action. It not only soothes and heals soreness and irritation^^but it quickly removes the phlegm and congestion which are the real eaust of night coughing. People who have not slept well for nights are often surprised how quickly this simple method checks coughing, and banishes the entire cough condition completely.■ Dr. King’s New Discovery Is for coughs,chest colds, sore throat, hoarseness, bronchitis, spasmodic croup, ei-c. Fine for children as well as grownups—no harmful drugs. Economical, too, as the dose is onjy one teaspoonful. At all good druggists. Ask tor FERTIUZER “ZeU’s Excells” Rend what Mr. R. W.

LESTER P. # , „ —;— ^— # * MARTIN * Night Phona 120; Day; Phone ...............71. i MocksyiHe, N. C,, Raleigh, March 81;—For pecan trees to be successfully top-work ed this summer, they must bte prepared Jn the , spring. Ac cording to the Division of Horti culture at State College, there are thousands of, trees in the S^te of both seedlings and poor varie ties which may be made profitable by budding onto them the good varieties wJiich are adapted to North Cai'olina. For this .work to be done pro perly, the horticultural workers cooperating with the North Caro lina Pecan Growers’ Society have arranged with a man of extensive experience to help in this work this summer. But if the trees are to be top-worked successfully they must be out back and prepared this spring. For thnt reason, those growers who have trees which they desire to be topworked, should write to the North Carolina Pecan Grow ers’ Society at Raleigh giving the location and number of trees, thoir ago and the approximate height and diameter of .their trunks. The Society will then ad vise as to how the trees should be prepared so that they may be budded later in the summer. Those who may wish to avail themselves of the Society’s offer are requested not to do any cut ting back or other preparation before getting from the Society the best methods advocated, , According to the horticultural workers, owners of seedling and' other poor varieties of pecans will find it greatly to their, ad-, vantage to get their trees ready and to do this top-Working at teh proper time. It is best to have this work’of preparation over be- ïore the trees: are in full-foliage. -----:----1»------:■ '.

Thé Soviet government’s plan was not how easy but how hard the tests could be made, so that if a car or truck had a weak place it would be re vealed. 3. G. Shelley, who had charge of the Graham Brothers entry in the truck contest, returned recently and gives a vivid account of the event. Trucks were required to cover a course of '1,300 miles, and according to Mr. Shelley there are no roads in America to compare with the route the Soviet govern ment laid out. "If there are any such roads in this country," Mr. Shelley said, .“nobody here would try to run trucks over them.” A Wild Race “It was a wild race,” Mr. Shel ley continued. “We were to start in the morning and reach a cer tain control point at night. We were stopped several times in the course of the day in order to keep the whole company together. Each truck had a commatider, or repre sentative of the government, in charge, who made a record of the truck in which he was riding. The RuBsians designated 1fce roads as 'paved,* but we would hit holes that would throw all foU rwheela off the ground. “Before starting on this trip the trucks were supposed to be prepared and turned over to a technical committee of the Auto mobile Club of Moscow for com parison and inspection and to note anything new or unusual in au tomobile and truck construction. They also checked dimensions, which items also were checked after the run, and there wa sjust one point on which there was any variation in'our truck with that of the original measurement. That was a spread of about three-six teenths of an inch between the front tires. Otherwise the Gra ham Brothers truck was in per fect condition. A Fine Showing "Our showing came pretty close to being perfect, compared with what happened to, some of the oth ers. A German truck had an in creased spread between the front tires of more than an . inch. Two Italian trucks went almost com pletely to pieces. Two Russian trucks had to have new axles when they got back to Moscow, “The test run was 1,300 miles, and we averaged' about 26 miles an hour, with a gas mileage of about 10. For economy we equal ed the best. "Any adjustment of a discre pancy incurred a penalty. Each truck was given 200 points to start with. If your steering gear broke your entire 200 points were gone right then, and your were eliminated. The same was true if the frame cracked. Penalties ranged from the 200 points to 10. This was a good plan, as the Rus sians wanted, to eliminate the trucks that c6uldn’t be operated over their roads. We must give them credit for figuring out a way to find out which were the good trucks. Our only penalty was a 10 for filling the radiator. “Our start was made with a load of about 8,600 pounds, in cluding parts, spare tires, 2,200 pounds of sand and three men. We ran between 750 and 800 miles with the load and then took the load off. The idea back of this was to shake the trucks to pieces, if possible, by running them emp ty over the bumps. Five in a Bunch "It was just one wild race all the way, a case of dog eat dog. For the last sixty miles . there were five of us in front, and a blanket 250 feet long would have covered us all. There v/ere the two Russian trucks in the lead, two German trucks and the Gra ham Brothers truck. Through a misunderstanding, we had enter ed only one truck, which automa tically eliminated us from a chance to get the grand prize; That last sixty miles was the most exciting run I expect ever to make, W« were doing from 40 to 46 miles an hour over a frightful road. We were fifth, within a few feet of one of the German trucks which 'suddently began to aiow up. Within three miles of the finish it had thrown a connecting rod and had to pull qut. We swung out and passed at' full speed. There was anothier Gterman truck right behind us that DRESS UP FOR EASTER We have a big line of Men^s and Boys’ Clothingf to select from.

We tore down a long hill ■ with a sharp curve and a rail- ' road track at the bottom, and that German truck behind us went ^ at least three feet in the air when ■ hit the track. “We finished fourth,, right on' the taillights of tho two Russian trucks and the one German car. “After, the long run we had n bad roads’ contest, a ‘trip around Moscow’, they called it. The Rus sians had picked out the worst roads they could find for this te^t. : There was one particularly bad place. The Russian trucks had been over the route before aji« knew Mow to avoid it. We h^q get off the road and go over à hill through the woods. This was ' the slipperiest mud I ever" have seen and at one place wjb had a slant of 40 degrees 13 one side. Some of the trucks simply could- ’t make it. One American truck' had to be pulled out. The two Italian trucks were completely done. C lim l^ Heavy Grade "Here the Graham Brothers truck certainly showed what it Could do. There was a 25 per cent grade, and we put on our chains and. made it with the full load. We did it so nicely the oth-, er fellows were spellbound. There was never a better performance, than our .truck coming up out of that place. From then on our re putation was made. Every time we stopped people would come around and ask questions. ‘ ■ “We can put our truck up against anything Europe has to offer mechanically, and when you consider the price there is no com parison. We can equal the best in economical operation, and we are away ahead of them on de sign. Our body construction is' m.bre practical. They follow along military lines, “Although we wore not eligible for the prize because we had only one truck entered, a special silver cup was awarded the Graham. Brothers truck ‘for ability to pass over bad roads’ as a result of our performance.” КШММ To Get Busy GRAND LODGE OF MASONS BURY ГНЕШ GRAND MASTER Kinston, March 31.—The Grand Lodge of Masons of the state, hundreds of other Masons and other hundreds of friends attend ed the funeral of John E.

"If you had moved out of this good county twenty years ago and had not made a visit in the meantime and should re turn now, you would recognize neither the County nor Roxboro save* in one respect and that is in our county gbviernment”'says thatipaper in it’s opening statement. Editor Noell then goes on to talk about the antiquated system (if one could really call it system) by which North Carolina counties are managed. We wish we had space here to carry the entire editorial as it is a very excellent'one and one which might put our pebple to thinking about reformation in our county system, but any one who thinks and observes \Vill agree that no other busineBS in the world could be as successfully conducted as North Carolina counties are from a financial standpoint. Is it not about time we were reforming and modernizing , our county government by putting it on a business basis with the view of get ting more for less money? PBilZES OFFERED IN ' STATE GARDEN,CONTEST ' STATE DRUfiOESTS STJLL UN- CERTAIN ABOUT NEW ; ; The Editor of the Cleveland Star delves into the' science of medicine and brings out some wonderful suggestions tending to show that there may have been a scientific reason for the use of all kinds 'of strange concoctions in days gone by. Just listen to this from an editorial carried imthe Shelby paper of last week: , "Probably no science has been evolved from a greater mass of early superstition than that of medicine. Still, it is said that some of the old-time prescriptions may possibly have had a certuin cura tive value although appearing ridiculous at first glance. “A recent writer declares that the broth of red ants was once used for intestinal disorders, and that modern ré.'îcarch finds, that the formic acid in ants is a strong antiseptic which may have killed intestinal germs. i ’ “Some believe that the sting of bees and wasps relieve Theuma- -tism. These insects'also socrete fijrjnio^aoid antij-injection of^which through the .‘stinger’ may possibly. hiivC a beneficial, effect. "Baked tond, ground to powder vyas used by the Greeks as a remedy for , heart disease.. Chemists find that there are cert?iih al kaloids in the skin of a toad which act as a heart stimulant. ' “Some other old alleged remedies have not yet'been satisfac torily explained, however, among the innumerable ones may be men tioned tying a pickled herring to each leg for dropsy ; eating a di'ied and powdered magpie for epilepsy ; carrying buckeye in tho pockot or sleeping with a black cat for rheumatism; various incantations for the removal of warts and 90 on.' “Considering the mystery which formerly surrounded most di- seases, it is not surprising that equally mysterious remedies have been suggested and applied. And ,' while we have made amazing progress in medicine and surgery the highest skill is still baffled by a few maladies“that have been studied since the dawn of civiliz ation.” ■ i Raleigh, April 7.—An oppor-; lunity for; those who have won fame 'as good ■vegetable 'grow'érÿ to' \vin substantial .prizes 'is' ; of-' ïered in the Sta^ Garden Con test which began on March 1‘ and will close on^,.February; 28, 1927i The time for ,;íenrollméít in this contest closes òri April 15 and all gardens to qpmpete for the prizes must bé'" enrolled by that date..- ■ " ' ■ , ' , ’ “Those who wish to'take part in. this cbntfest shpúíd hand;,,in their names to the home deibòn- stration agent on April Ï5;" says E.

Helps To Destroy Grasshoppers Development of Wyoming'as a turkey-producing section has been urged by e.xtensibn workers of the State and tho United States De- l)artment of Agriculture for three reasons: Tlie climate induces fat tening in time to place the stock early on the holiday , markets;, livestock growers need a supple mental cash crop; and when tliere are sufllcient turkeys,, ¡grasshop pers cease to be a liability and become an asset, for these birds have a high regord .for the grast hopper, and large appetites. In Park County alone Thanks giving shlj^meht totaled over 75,- 000 pounds of turkey after four years’ emphasis on turkey pro duction. Big Horn,' Fremont, Goshdn, and other counties have made-similar progress,, ' Increased interest in good stock and good;management of the flock was fostered by county agents and othpr. extension workers, with the result that In one year the aver age weiglit of the turk6ys ship, ped .tp market, was 2 pounds heavier than those of tiie preced ing; season, and this year’s crop id snid to show eveii greater ad vance. Should Poor Have Children? Dearborn Independent. The very interesting president of the University of'Michigan, as reported in the press, favors, among other things, the decrease of children in the families of the poor. He says that in other fami lies the. dellberatq limitation of offspring Is largely practiced, it is not-a new proposal, but some how: it fails to lose, even with oxcesslvo repetition, Its iiowei: to n.tuseate the reason. It is always the poor I Yet'nobody defines tiie poor. The [ poor are tl^ose who live in the back streets. ¡But the boys raised in the front street, 16 years hence, and; the , girls fti"® likely to be tiie wives and moth ers of a race virile enough to save the country:, from the shrinkage in morals and energy that will come upon -it, through “limited families'.’’ For selfishness it the great immorality. ; Where are the 'poor? And what have the other classes, who can give (heir children "all the ncl- vantages,” to promise fpi- tomor row? The poor of yesterday are in the seats ' of power today, and the families. of yesterday that "had nil ']:6“advantag3a" are go ing seed. It may bo 3t'..'.c- thing in a boy’s fav.>iv.that he has.

For the impression one gains from all this talk, about'limitation is that those who deliberately éffett it are thereby conferring great bene fit on the country.

Raloigh, Jiih; 12.-^The‘ inéréas- ing shortage of horse oh the fiirms of the United States makes the growing of colts especially attni- ctive to some North Carolina far mers now. Somó forosighted men are already growing more colts and are receiving good prices for them. According to Prof.R. S. Curtis of the aiiimal husbandry department at State College, there has been a decrose.in thè number of horses on the farms of the United States of 16.8 percent in the last five years. On January first of last j'ear,there were ,16,535,759 compai'ed to 19,- 767,161 horses five years before. There is á decrease of 11 percent in young horses foaled in'1923 and 1924; . : ' : - ;' ' : ¡Mules show an increase of 5.5 percent during the last five years but; young mules during 1923 and 1924 show a decrease of 44.6. “Those who have gaad mares producing good horses and mules have increased the production bf colts,” says Prof. Curtis. “Those who have been produciiig inferior animals have received such poor prices for the colts that they have quit the business. This is exactly as it should be and encourages the production of good horses. Com petition with mechanical power re quires not only the Use of horses { in more: efficinet ways, such as larger teams, but also the produc tion of better horses and mules, capable of doing more -\vork ina given time.” yProf. Curtis states that those vvhiD have farms well equipped jfor tlic production of livestock, -^'ith plenty of pasture, and hay crops, should investigate the poasibilities of producing colts; for market. ; '; IN \raiCH c l a ss: a re YOU? •, Sanatorium, Jan. ll.-^The first issue to appear March 1, the-Nor- tli Carolina Sanatorium ia plann ing to publish a monthly periodi cal that will be devoted to the iiir terests and problems of the.tuber- ciilous persons in North Carolina., 'It will be the only publication .of its kind in the State, and one of Jess than half a dozen sucli publi cations in t.'so South. ¡ .

'■ i Tliistreatment is bSsed on the famous . Dr. King’s New Discoveiy,for .Coughs., ' Yoii take just one teaspbonfut and hold It in your throat for 15 or 20 seconds tefore swallowing it. The prescription has li double action. It not only soothes and heals soreness and irritation, but also loosens and removes the phlcgut and congestlou which are the rral causa of the coughlns. So thc worst cough usually disappears quickly. Dr. K ing’ s New D iscovery is for ' coughs, cheit colds, bronchitis, spas* Biodic croup, etc. Fine for children, too —no harmful drugs. Very economical, asthedoieis only onet«aspoonful.. At all good druggists.

It is Im possible for ' news w ite rs, for In- sitanee, to havo first hand knowledge of the unnumbered details about stor ies they must write from day ,to day, and of course the average reader does' not’ even consider attribirting to him all .this knowledge, He must depend on others for information.

Snndy Hauser ^v^ll be protected from tho unjust methods of a Forsyth coun ty court trial. "I am not going to send this man back to where, it is evident from the, facts here revealed, he will not receive a fair trial,” said a Pittsburg judge. Noble Pennsyl vania Ju rist! Sandy would not be tried fairly in Forsyth county. North Carolina, so this high minded Judge, who has listened to a sweet tongued lawyer bent upon saving Sandy from facing the charge of selling whiskey to school children, puts a fatherly arm around the negro's shoulder and says he shall be treated fairly by the country that gives him citizenship.. “The Jails of North Carolina are filled with persons im properly con victed because of tho alleged disbar ment of ' negroes from Juries,” con tinues the judge. Ono swells with pride at the very thought of such devotion to duty and Justice as displayed by' thé P itts burgh Judge. And one m ay rejoice in the : knowle<lge th at, hereafter no negroes, shall be tried and unjustly convicted by North Carolina courts, because a few dollai's and a couple of hobo jumps will get them into Penn sylvania, where they are hereinafter protected from the barbarism s of North Carolina. . ' • . Such ridiculous a.'¿um ent does not miss being repulsive very far. Neg roes know that they stand a much better chance of receiving justice in tho south, where they are understood and loved, than anywhere else. —-----------•---------------- Advertising Rates Should Be Higher, Says Adolph S. Ochs. New York, Jan. 6.—^Asserting that existing advertisirtfe rates are too low, Adolph S. Ocha, publish- er of The New York Times, today told advertising men at a luncheon of the Advertising club that every issue of The Times cost the own ers $50,000, or approximately 14 cent a copy. He said that the present adver tising rates tend to cheapen news papers and expressed the brief, that higher rates would improve their advertising. He suggested, that advertisers should spend 90 per cent of their appropriations in keeping .existing customers, while 10 per cent should be used in getting new customers. Charlotte Observer. The Albem arle-Saiisbury highway No. 80, barely tips the northern corner of Cabarrus. The Concord Observer hears that tlio road, financed by^ Stan ly and Rowan counties, "will be given a tui'n and a curve to avoid Cabarrus.” It that should be the case, it will he because of sim plifying the m atter of .financing, for the road would touch Cabarrus only to the extent of one of tho white dashes indicating thu un finished road, and the, slightest devia tion would bo sufficient to escape com- pKcalion over a sm all financial m at ter. This,, however, is sim ply specula tion. It is a fact that Cabarrus has been liberal in providing money for the highway reaching toward Albe m arle. The Concord paper insists that it was an outright gift of $300,- flriit Quality GüarantMd tires. 30x3 Casinga |6;75 each 30x3 1-2 Casings .$7.50 each 30x3 1-2 cord Casings $8.00 each ROBERIS HARDWM CO.

The busi ness farmer likes to know wheth er ho is making or losing money and he daiinct tell unless he keep.s •ecords. C AKES and candy that come in (lecoratcd metal boxes, make at tractive Chr.istmas presents. As everyone knows, Christmas day is not tlie only, one during the season on which- one- may wish to make gifts. The frequent visiting back and forth 'luring thc season beginning shortly 1)0 fore Christmas and' extending through New Year’i, the many par ties and entertainments,, call for an abundance of just such attractive and Iiractical presents as boxes of candy or cake. As the gift of sweetmeats-can be- given by anyone of whatever .sex or age and whether intimate friends or casual acqiminta'nces, it solves many a Iiaflling problem. ,Tlie boxes' in which ,the cake and candy is packed come boith in the round and oblon'g shapes, in one, two and five pound sizes, and are decorat ed by a.process of lithography which on some boxes resembles .hand-pairit-, ing, and on,others tapestry, leather, or intricate metal worlc. Some show scenes of figures, others are in good- looking, conventionalized designs of birds, fruity, baskets or flowers, or in: intricate all over patterns of gothic and oriental motifs.' Among thc simpler of the round boxes is a blue and white windmill scene, especially heat and attracUve «s' a c'qntiuiier of cakq that is apt to be kept in-tiie kitchen. Among tiie boxes done In several colors is one with a rich golden fniil' design, with 'touches, of bright scarlct -and green in, it, another in deep reds and pur ples, a tapestry effect showing a -'ainty little colonial dame' who would be charming in any boudoir or drawing room, and a gorgeous pea cock pattern showing a yellow and or.-ingc-red bird against a background of tJue and purple flowers-^all artisti cally conventionalized. Such boxes with their rich-and highly decorated designs, their bright array of colors fit in well with the sparkle , of'candle and firelight aiid contrast .with -the ■ sombre greens of Christmas 'tree and table'decorations. , Fruit cakes,,either brown or golden, as 'Well as spice' cakes can be pur chased already packed ■ in good-look ing decorative ..tin boxes.

Spmetirhes. at Christmas'there is, an over-abun^nce of sweets in the house, more than it is possible, or desirable, to cat during the holiday season. Sweets cannot be'kept long on hand in pasteboard boxes without growing stale. But cake and candy in tin containers can .be kept for weeks or months and still be.deli cious. ■ Besides being a cheerful spot, of ■color in the house during thc holiday season, the box has a permanent value,-for after the contents aro con sumed, tiie boxes are used for n vari-: ety of purposes.

It’s as well that friend CKa'rlie McSwain wasn’t along. Charlie's a good scout and a prolific writ er, albeit careless with his ad jectives and over-iiberar with his tsuperlatives.' But a chap who’ll get scared riding to one; diaky- little fire, which was out before he got there—well, Charlie just; lacks the necessary nerve, thai’e All! Not that the writer got sc«redi For one thing, he wae too busy keeping top end up; and for ацо> ther, by the time his slbw wits could get around to the need for fright over one thing, therd’d bet something else to worry; aboiit. However, though this need ' for ordered sequence is hard on Us writing fellows, it must be obey ed. To get at the tale: Said writer left Albemarle last Friday morning at 8 o’clock, with his friend, P. R. Moose, salesman of hosiery for the Geo. W. Reid Company. ■ Evidently a son,' or at least a nephew of Jehu—^for he driveth furiously. It was raining. Not a vehement rain; gentle arid steady, and just right for making roads slippery. That was all right. Good Stanly County oiled highway underneath, and “Lizzie” the Ford behaving with deceptive docility. The mud began after the Swift Island bridge was cross ed, in Montgomery county. Then Lizzie gave a taste of her mettle, showing that she could not only go straight for\yard, but sideways as well. A pause in Mt. Gilead to ask a question. . Then on again, storming up one Side of red clay hills, slithering down the other; deep side ditches inviting Lizzie with'i'aimost magnetic attraction. Another halt at a country store on top of what “P. R.” said was Pee Ridge. Ridge is right; its height afforded a view for miles around. A rush down into Richmond County. Level land, and sandy. Then peach orchards iu bloom, stretching away under tho rain to drab-cloud horizon. Some one has said peach orchards in bloom are beautiful; but not these, ex actly. Impresive, rather, ih their testimonj^f of -what man- can do with nature. Poor little trees! Set in straight rows, trimmed and pruned, no more than efficient lit tle machines. In other localities were seen other blossoming peach trees, growing free, wide and high. One of them w'as more lovely than all the ordered orch ards. The route presently swung back into Montgomery, up among the hills. Towns passed through were Candor, Biscoe, Star, Seagrove. Lizzie still going, but not so do cilely. She was, in fact, very hot. Smoke rose in her passenger com partment suffocatingly. Business of opening windows. Mercifully the rain had ceased. A halt at a village well, to fill her radiator with water poured from a' crock. Boinings and rumblings in her over-heated interior. Plainly a leak. Another start, apparently all right, when—Whang!—some thing loose inside—^Wham! Bang! Another stop, of course. Fan belt busted. Fan was removed; stored in the rear compartment. Lizzie snorted on just the same. More stops for water, At a roadside pottery, where an old man at a potter’s Avheel fashioned vessels of clay previously kneaded and made ready by his young helper; at a plain ditch beside the road, whence water was dipped with a can. And so at length to Asheboro, in Randolph County. A halt at the lugar Service Station. Some class to that place. They have a red-1 and-gilt Pierce Arrow service truck,, ladies’ rest room ’n every thing, including a handsome young , shiek in spiiTy unionalls .nnd iii'cipient sideburns to tempt the ladies to stop and rest in the rest room.

He urged that state agri cultural departments co-operate with the federal depaj-tment in .stamping out the '.sale of such seed. Mr. Clayton’s address advocat ed the southern , delivery of fu tures on New York contract in order to force the abusers of the futures privilege to stop “mani pulations” of the' market which have in the past “forced the price of futures in New York to below the, price of thefsame month in New Orleans, despite the fact that there is a disparity of 85 points iii transportation'between the two markets.” Tomorrow morning the com mittee will elect' officers and choose the convention city for 1927. • > OUR PUBLIC SQUARE. REPUBLrCAN BOSSES WIN OUT. WE ARE NOT SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ESKIMOS. WHITE BOYS TAKING THE NEGROE’S PLACE IN CRIMINAL COURTS, Few towns have such an opportunity, from a standpoint of lay;, out, to develop into a most attractive place, as Mocksville. The large public square where the old court house' once stood is unlike that which one sees in most towns. There aie a number of towns in this state with a “court house square,” but in most cases the court house is stiJl there, and these have taken advantage of the situation and layout to develop their “court house squares” into real beauty spots. But Mocksville has the • “court: house square” without the court house. That means a great open square around which stand the greater portion of Mocksville’s business houses. It is similar to Vance; Park, or Pack Square in Asheville, and if you have ever seen Avhat they call Pack Squai’e you have some idea of what Mocks ville could do with the large open square here. Of course, it will take some money and a bit of time arid pains to make our square what it should be. However, there is one step which we could take which would cost very little. Eventually, the driveways will be pave<l around in front of the business buildings, fronting up to the curb stones of the side walks. That will leave a great open sqiiar# inside the four paved driveways. Now we may riot be able to pave these drive vyays right now, but the town and the county jointly could have the drives surveyed and definitely locatedi Then shade trees couid be planted and these would be growing so that within a few years, when we finally pave the four driveways, we would have fine trees well started. We should, like to see the lions club, chamber of commerce and the women's organizations get interested in this proposition. Why not utilize the opportunities which we have of making the business section of Mocksville one of the most attractive places in this section of the state. And now is the time to begin, for we can’t grow trees in a few months, nor a few years, Marion Butler went down from Washington to the republican convention at Durham last week with the determination that he would reform the plan of organization of his party. He declared himself in favor of such reform as would give the avcirage republi can voter more sayso as to who shall be nominated for the various offices, A noble cause, but he had not reckoned with that “Hog Combine” which he should first have to overcome and in the attempt of which he nnd his followers were completely routed, three to one. The republican party in this state can never become a strong force as a political organization, as long as a few leaders maintain the right and the power to control the nominations in state and counti es and appointments to federal oiRcers. But what does the "hog combine” crowd care? About all they care for is to be able to get their feet in the “pie trough,” that is, get in on thè' federal payroll. They care very little about the average republican voter. And when one .stops to consider, how much power does the average republican voter have in naming the republican candidates for the various state and federal offices? How much ,sayso does the average republican voter, even here in Davie county, have when it comes to saying who shall be the republican candidate for sheriff, for clerk of ihe court, register of deeds, etc? Take’ the ,<lemocrats, for instance, and a general primary is heul when the democratic voters, all the demo cratic voters, can go to the polls and vote for the nomination of their favorite candidates just as they vote in the general election, and the candidates getting the most votes are. the party nominees. No set of bosses meet in convention to say who shall be the candidates for whom we must cast our votes in the general election in order to be regarded as "good democrats.” In other words, Butler was working for such liberal rule in the republican party as the demo crats now have. But the bosses would not permit it. They want to hold the strings in their own hands, leaving the average republi can voter with just about as much power to say who his candidates shall be as the slaves had before the civil war. Of course, it might not be quite so fine for the few republicans who boss and dictate the party’s policies, e.tc,, but Butler’s plan of organization would help wonderfully in commanding the respect of the average voter for the republican party, as a party of the people. When Capt. Wilkins landed at Point Barrow with his big Fok- ker monoplane, last week, the ignorant Eskimo natives thought “a flying devil” hud landed among them, and the older ones started their “devil chasing dance,” à religious cult designed to frighten away evil spirits. That sounds foolish to us, but we fail to rememb er that it has been only a few years since our ancestors used similar methods to cure disease. They thought that all sickness was due to some sort of evil spirit and the idea was to drive away that evil spirit, if the disease was to be cured. And indriving away the evil spirit they frequently killed the patient, or nearly worried him to death. So when we stop to consider, we are not so far removed from barbarism ourselves. w'‘. y ß f ' ■' Л 'кn л ‘’■йк DEATHS FROM AUTO TRAFFIC IN SOUTH LAST WEEK ONLY 33 The Democratic county conven- ’ ’J. _____..I',».': I t ...

In :• . ■ beef and dairy cattle, North Caro- • ■ )ina has beon- steadily losing ’ ground, until the condition has bocome one that should cause r serious concern among all who have the welfare of the State at heart. Writing in the University News Letter, S. H. Hobbs, Jr., shows by the census that North Carolina aow. ranks last among all the ^uthern States'ih humber of cat' tie, her rank being only 1,9 head per farni. This means, of course, | V that our State ranks last among; «II the States of the Union in this ' Tcspect. .The United States aver age is 9.66 cattle per farm, or 'moré than five times the average for North Carolina. Aside from South Carolina there is not anoth er State-in the Union that even approaches North .Carolina, in • fewness pf cattje per farm; This is an immensely surprising fact, and ai fact that involves worlds ‘ of significance. . As/pointed out by Mr. Hobbs, North Carolina’s e.'cceedingly low rank in thè cattle industry is hard to explain.

They have boon so busy .jaxzing along u-ith this jazzy age that they have neglected the most important duty that rests upon any mother. They have failed at a point most fatal to youth. They have failed to impress upon their children the importance of sobriety and temperance. It is too late tot a mother to appeal to a Chamber of Commerce if once her boy has gone out into the world without the proper sort of instruction. He is then beyond the reach of Chambers of Comi- merce. There has also been a feeling prevalent that with the coming of prohibition, there would no longer be any need for instructions in tertperance. That is a mistaken idea. There was never more reason than now for giving such instriiction.

A minute more per cow a day spent in weighing out the feed consumed and the milk produced by each animal would show the dairyman w’hich of his cows are working for him and which are loafing on tho job. , Thirty-one , seconds a milking Is àll the time a farmer needs to keep tab on the perform ance of each of the cows in his herd. That has been ascertained by actual tests.' It is argued by the Institute that if tho extra minute devoted to keeping records for, say, 20 cows, should reveal that one of them was a typical waster—incapable of producing milk in profitable quantities—the dairyman, would no< only be sav ed'the cóli htloss hours devoted to its feeding and care, but he would find that he was better off at the end of the year with the remain ing 19 cows than he was with tho original 20. And then there is forthcoming what appears to be a new line of thought for tho farmer. There is ond class of cow that would not desbryo the tax-fee benefit Major Way would establish. These cows hré called “Susies,” by the Insti tute. They are "good lookers,’' but simply have not the capacity, when it comes to the milk pail. All feeds , they get above the amount required to produce their limited quantities of milk and keep, them in condition, are wast ed. Then there are the Betties, thin, emanciated creatures who look, as tliough they were ready to lib down and quit, but which have •an inherited ability to produce milk that will often lead them to take it right off their own backs. Generally these are sadly under fed, so that they are using only a portion of their capacity. Third comes the Dollies—the army of waster cows that simply can’t pro duce milk profitably. They eat and eat and their owners have neither beef nor milk to show for it. They .’are overdue at the .butcher’s. , Here comes in the poir(t of the value of testing. Siieh covvs, says the Institute, are in every herd where the dairyman does not feed in accordiance with milk capacity and ..production. Keeping feed .and milk record.s \vill .show the ■daió’man how to profit from the Susies,, cash inifully on the Bet- 'tibs,- and how to ; avoid losses on the Dollies. itself a stimulating one. The old conception of a world that would end in a few years was a paralyzing one. If the world would surely end in a ahort time, men of former times'asked themselves, why keep any accurate record of history? Why carry on extensive scienti fic experiments? Why bother about changing social conditions greatly? Why begin long-time projects of improvement when there would be no time to com plete them? The idea that the world will go on, to all practical pui^josea, forever, tends to turn men’s minds to the problems of making it a better place to live in. It will force them to face the problems of getting along ami cably with one another, Wihich means the elimination of war. It will force them to turn their attention toward the combatting of disease and the installing of new sanitary improvements to | safeguard health. I The same scientist says the earth has been in existence about two trillion years, oi'- something like one-five hundredth thousand th of the length of time it will continue beyond us. This makes us realize thnt ci vilization is just beginning, that mankind is taking the fir.st fal- teri(ig stepf) on a long career. It mitigates the despair occas ioned by the'child-mindedness of the crowd, the lack of progress in mankind ahd the insanity of the late war. . The idea that tlie world will continue indefinitely is humbling, stimulating and encouraging. It may inspire awe, but it will never stifle into stagnation as did the conception of the wor|d as a j temporary thing in which the end was enternaily imminent Don’t plant tobacco on land af fected with root knot. It is bet ter to rotate some other crop not susceptible to tho disease.--------------♦--------------- High production on a small acreage should be the aim of the cotton grower this year.

He is about as dis- a'greeable to one as to the other, for they all despise him and his cheap way of trying to attract their attentions. Ho thinks he is "fast,” and that the entire fe male sex is helpless under his in- iluence, but in this he is deluded, he has himself “puffed,” for he is not at all dangerous, but is just a common nuisance. He is not n "spoi’t” au lie imagines him self to be. He is not thei danger ous character to the purity and chastity of womanhood that he thinks he is.

Generally moderate , receipts strengthened the hay market .at .interior points during the week ending March 6 in spite of the Hveakness in feed prices although northeastern and Pacific Coast markets continued dull, states tho Weekly Hay Market Review of the United States Department of Agriculture. Prices of top grad es averaged higher but the bulk of the offerings again consisted of ordinary to poor hny which ruled barely steady. Pastures were .developing slowly in Alaba ma and Georgia, but were making fair progress from Mississippi to Texiis while pasturage on the Pa cific Coast was good to excellent. Livestock were ranging freely in the Dakotas, ^ Timothy held praot'icnlly steady with top grades showing firm ness. Receipts at Boston were liberal but quotations were un changed for bitet hay although dealers were making concessions on ordinary hay to avoid demur rage. Continued liberal arrivals met a duU market at New York but improved toward the close and prices were quitably. uhchang- od. Light offerings at Pittsburgh f,breed higher prices for top grad es but the market at Cincinnati ruled dull with little outside buy ing and ,only deslrablp hay was wanted. Low grades were neg lected at Chicago but good hay ruled steady. Outside demand continued'to take a nuniber of cars off the market. Quotations wore; advanced $1 oh best hay at St. Louis but timothy held barely steady at Minneapolis .- St. Paul while it' was steady at Kansas City with, the shipping trade ab sorbing the light offerings. Trad ing in timothy was of fair volume in southern markota and « prices Bhowed an upward tendency. The supply of top grade Johnson Grass hay seembd about exhausted in Atlanta territory. , Alfalfa ruled firm east of the Rockies and held practically steady-in Califoi;rila markets. Re ceipts were light ai Omah and more hay was wanted although prices held quo^ably unchanged. Light repeipts at ^ Kansas City forced prices" slighfily higher with shipping orders largely from the Southeast,-absorbing the bulk of the arrivals.

For ii yiiiit' or two the number ,(if white men and boys in the Miourts of North Carolina has been •of a chai'acter to constitute - à State sfiandal. Several judgtes have' been moved to make ppjslic remark upon the developed,situa tion and yesterday The Observer made quotation from The Stanly News-Herald to thé efiect that of 45 cases on the docket; of Stanly Superior Cpurtj, 48 were; white men, There were but two negro- .,es involved; Eighteen of the white defendants were under ?3 ¡years of ‘age. ‘ In former times ¡the criminal part of the court .docket was made up almost entire ly of negroes. Thia situation now ■appears reversed. The last issue of The University News Letter jives tabulated statement of liquor law violations in North ■Carolina for one year ended June ;iO, 1924. It is disclosed that Ciimden, Currituck and Hyde had no State cases involving liquor law violation. Rutherford county reported 100 cases on the Super ior Court docket, 75 of which were for the violation of State rstntutes governing prohibition .anl'orcement. And it would seem that liquor •cases, abounding as they do, are but incidental. The lawless ele ment of white : society runs the catalogue of crime, burgJari'es, robberies, larceny and murder figuring conspicuously. The whites count more largely in I.quor law violations, also, for -the conclusion of The News Let ter is that "the whites have more liquor law violations than do the negroes.” The burden of crime in the State is manifestly shifted io the shoulders of the white race, the chain gang, notwithstanding. Travelers along highways where convict labor is employed may have remarked upon a circum stance peculiar to this new age in crime. On some of tho gangs there are more white people than negroes.. If we are to give the negro his due, we must face a hard-boiled admission, and this is, that in proportion to racial population, he has developed into the class of the more law-abiding citizen. ' This may be because of lack of opportunity, but whatever ‘the cause, it appears to be a fact. And. this is, because the negro, as a general^thing, keeps off liquor. It is hard for him to get it, while tho white man not only gets it, but deals,jn it. , 1926 DEATH RATE FROM FLU IN Ü. S.

To increase the efllciency of those animals now o nthe farms, every farm should have a pasture or paddock where the animals may run at nights, on Sundays and during idle seasons.

C. H. Brannon, extension ento mologist at State College, is spending his time this spring with the fruit growers of the State and finds that if the apple crop ia protected by spraying this year, the growers should make money, Esi)ecially is it important to spray for control of the codling moth or apple worm. Last year, hie states,'very few of the worms were killed by sprays. The moth emerged all during the year in stead of at two definite periods and more worms entered winter quarters than usual. These worms will soon emerge as moths, will lay eggs, producing worms which eat into the apples and will cause tremendous damage. The codling moth larvae or worms pass the winter in cocoons beneath the bark of apple trees, under trash and in cracks in the ground. The larvae transform to pupae just before blooming time. This stage lasts about one month when the moth emerges and be gins to deposit eggs on the leaves. The young worms boi'e into the blo.ssom end of the apple and eat to the core, f They feed in the ap ple about one month and;loave the fruit, crawling down the trunk to death-rate among the South Oaro- begin the life cycle ail over again, lina policyholders (387.78 per “To control the moth, growers 100,000) was higher than in'any must use arsenate of lead poison While the death rate from both influenza and pneumonia in the United States and Canada is run- ing higher than last year, there is nothing in the mortality re cord to indicate the general pre valence of epidemic influenza in virulent form thruout the United States and Canada. This state-r ment is contained in the latest Metropolitan Statistical Bulletin and is based on the company’s experience with 17,000,000 indusr trial policyholders in the two countries. The comulative, or year-to-date death I’ate for influenza, up to nnd including the week ending March 13, was 37.4, per 100,000, as com pared with 32.4 for the same per iod of 1925; The death, rate for the week ending March 20th is reported as unusually high, and the presumption is that deaths from influenza and pneumonia play an important part in it. "Among Metropolitan policy holders,” says the bulletin, “the highest death rates from influenza and pneumonia so far iii 192G, have been observed in the South ern and ‘border states.

Cherrington, of Westerville, Ohio, general sec retary of the World Lengue Agaihst Alcohol, While this barrage was laid down before the committee, As- Bistant Secretary'Andrews, of the treasury, in charge of prohibi tion enforcement, in a statement pf Congress explaining the need for an additional $3,000,000 ap propriation for next year, said it was .necessary for his reor- Kanization program by which he hoped to stamp out the sources of liquor supply. At the same time General An- (ii'CWi) was becoming a storm cen ter Iri the wet and дгу controver sy. Assailed by some drys over the country because he agreed before the senate conynittee that festricted government?sale of non- iptoxicating beer might help en forcement, he was dei’ended today by both wet and dry leaders in Congress. ' The house was told by Repre- Mntatiye Cramton, republican, Michigan, a dry leader, that he believed the general was faith- |4lly doing all he could to enforce the law. Simultaneously, Sena tor Edge, republican, New Jer- ?Py, a wet leader in the senate. Issued a statement commending prohibition chief lor hia irtinkpess. - ' ^ l’or the first time since it be- (f8ij its hearings, nearly two vveeks thè senaté committee adher- fg today to its original schedule pi ipprning and afterhoon ses- *!|рП8. This gave the drys an op- USftuni^y to crowd in a ^ large of лу^1пев8е8 who cover- wide, range. There wee no south—and comparatively little by members of the committee. , Repeated statements by the wets that the practical operation oi the Volstead act has resulted in injury to the morals of the young of America draw fire from a number of witnesses. Mr. Keating denounced them as "libels” and Mrs. Helen H. Green, a member of the city council of Cleveland, Ohio, declared that such certainly v»as not the case in her city. Dr. Lee W. Beatty, superintend ent of tho Madison Square settle ment, of Ne wYork, took issue also with the claim of the wets that home-brewing and distilling in the home is prevalent. He said a personal inspection of ninety-three homes within one block of his settlement failed to disclose a single home still or brewing outfit. Contentions of the M’ets that prohibition was “foi.sted” upon the people during the frenzy of war-times brought replies from Dr. Cadman, the administrative committee of the council of chur ches nnd Mr. Cherrington. The secretary of the wo.rld league against alcoholism, asserted that the great majority of states were dry before the ratification of the eighteenth amendment. “The policy of prohibition was first voted in most of the states separately and then nationally,” said , the council’s statement, be cause the people had become con victed that liquor traffic was a social evil of such magnitude that it had to be destroyed.” Dr. Cadman’s statement said that as a policy, entjre legal sup pression of the liquor traffic, in. one form or another, is seventy years old in the United States. "During that perioti” he added, ‘‘the traffic was given repeated opportunities to reform." Burbank One of America's Great. A Refreshing p e A Im Example. The Case of Chaplain Shacklétte * A « m e e t 111 Since the War Between the States this nation has developed several outstanding men. One could name scores of these, but pos sibly the greatest five might be named as Woodrow Wilson, William Jennings Bryan, Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas A. Edison and Luther Burbank. And we might consider’the long terms of service and pick from this list of five the three greatest, Bryan, Burbank and Edison. Of course, there will be those who will disagree with us when we place these above Wilson, or even 'Roosevelt and there is some question about our judgment. Roosevelt did a great work.for America and thè world. Wilson did a still bigger task^ but both Wilson and Roosevelt were on the stage of only a few years, while Bryan, Burbank and Edison occupied the stage of public service for many, many years. The nature of Edison’s work was siich as to bring good results directly to every man, woman and child in the United States, if not civilized v;orld, Burbank’s work was of the same nature. And while Bryan was never president, every well- read person must admit that it was the putting into practice of Bryan’s policies which made Col, Roosevelt an outstanding world leader, Wilson’s biggest service to his country and the world was in line with the teachings of Bryan for more than a quarter of» a century. But Edison and Burbank have had no parallels. Their work l.as been along a different line from that of all other men of this day and generation, and only eternity will tell the measure of their service to mankind, while the teachings and policies of the Great Commoner will continue to be the ideals which lift men to higher conceptions of right and justice in government, while his religious ideals were almost as high as those of the Great Apostle Paul him.self. Bryan peacefully laid down the working tools of life last June and “was not, for God took him.” Sunday the great Burbank launch ed out into what was to . him an unknown eternity, to learn that which his great brain could not fathom in this life. Pity is that he e.xpressed himself as a non believer in his last days. But maybe ills mind was weakened by much work and extreme age, and pos sibly we did not understand his viewpoint and misjudged him. May be, after all, his relationship with God was not so uncertain and hazardous aa most of us thought from his recent statements. Any how, he will go down as one of America’s great, at will also Edison, the only surviver of the five. The lives of these five Great Americans, should bo a source of valuable study and limitless in.spiration, lo every young American, And in .studying their lives, lot us remember that all five of them were great because all five of them were great servants.

"We see that advanced courses in politics and government equip a few leaders yearly with vary ing degrees of encyclopedic know ledge.

The prison chaplain recently brought serious charges against Pardon Commissioner Sink. 'Phe chaplain was discharged. Why he was discharged, has not been made known; so far as we have learned. We are not here to say that the minister’s charges against Sink were true, but we do say that when a man, a minister, if you please, with character enough to be named as state prison chaplain makes such grave charges the truth or falsity of such charges can’t be established by such meth ods as those practiced in Chaplain Shacklette. So about the only lesson one gets is that public ofiicials must not talk about their fel low officials, not even when they tell the truth. Not that we are saying Shacklette’s charges were true, but even if they were true, may not the results have been about the same. other means of avoiding mindedness.” mob-cussed at this meeting.

Peebles, the Demo crats of Davie county will meet in the court house at three o’clock, Saturday, April 24, 1926, for the purpose of electing delegates -to the State Convention which meets in Raleigh on the 29th of April. On last Saturday afternoon pri maries were held in the several precincts of the county wherein delegates to the county convention were chosen. In Mocksville Township a., goodly number of Democrats met, elected J. B. Campbell, chairman, and Robert S. McNeill, secretary and in the regular course of business, elect ed all good DemocrMs of the pre cinct, delegates to the county con vention to- be held on the 24th instant. It is uhderatopd thia method of choosing delegates was pursued also by most of the other precinct meetings throughout the county. While the convention to be held next Saturday will respond to the call from the Democratic organi zation to elect delegates .to. the State Democratic Convention, it shoiild not be inferred therefrom t^a^: attend»nc£ of t]te Indopend- ent or CitjMni group will be un if delegates, participate in. But these Democrats Ijave nothing to conceal from the outside world; to tho contrary they always invite inspection; therefore, all citizens who care to attend and observe the proceedings will find a hearty welcome. The Democratic orga nization in Davie county, during the past, has shown itself ready and willing to meet the demands made upon it for the establish ment of sound, clean, wholesome administration of government, and we venture the assumption that it will cheerfully co-operate with the Citizens Group this fall to the end that the stigma of “bossism” may be removed as a stumbling- block in the path of Davie coun ty’s prdgress. So let all good Democrats and such of our citizen friends as care to, go to the Convention next Saturday afternoon, and demon strate to the good people of North Carolina thiat Davie eounty is not the kind of place the action of our Republican friends indicated it to. be .r,ecently. when their pri mary witnessed the hasty precipi- tatiop 0^ a row wbich finallj^ re^ suited'in the a m si ahdix«invlc> tion .for'cr|me ' of tw,o of their the observation of «n English journalist to the effect that “ in a land otherwise politically arid, the League of Women Voters blos soms from coast to coast.” Other speakers aif the mass meeting were Mrs. Maud Wood Park, former president of the Na tional league, and Mrs. Harriett- Taylor Upton, former member of the republican national commit- tee. * Mrs. Upton’s address took flfie place of that of Mrs. Carrie Chap man Catt, honorary president of the National league, who is ill and unable to attend the sessions.---------------4k------------^--- Team No. 10 of the "Billy Sun day” Club to be at Coolee- mee M.

WHITEHEAD, 01^ SALISBURY, DiGAD Was llo'»van's Oldcut Physician And Well ffnown Thruout North CaroHnit HIS DEÀTH WAS SUDDEN Salisbury, April 16.—Dr. John Whitehead, Salisburys oldest phy sician, and one of her best loved citizens, died suddenly last night at 7:40 at his Fulton Street home. Dr. Whitehead had been in ill health for some time and for three days had had the attention of a trained nurse. Last night he went into the bath room alone and in a few moments was heard to fall. Physicians were imme diately summoned but be died al most instantly. Heart trouble was given aa the cause of death. Dr. Whitehead vt-aa seventy years old nnd a native of Stilia- biiry, being a son of Dr. Marcel lus Whitehead, who also practic ed medicine in this city and with whom tho son was asaocinted in his early caroor. ' Dr. Whitehead had followed his profession hero for about half a century. He leaves a widow nnd two children. Dr. Edward, who ' is connoctud with the Episcopal Hospital at Philadelphia, and Mrs. John Os borne of Jacltsonville, Fla. Dr. Whitehead w«s a leafier in civic and religious cirele^ and was an oUlcial for mnny years of the First Baptist church'. NOMINATION (SoES BEGGING News and Observer. The Republicans in Durham couldn’t fall back on Mike Whlt- ener to run for tho Senate this year. Whltener had been doing valiant battle for the "Grand Oltl Party" for nigh onto forty years, but when a real plum was to bo distributed ho was left by tho wayside. Another was chosen for National committeeman and Miko Whitcner saw his dreams of political preferment dissipated. It was a foregone conclusion that J. ,L Britt wasn’t going to Jeavo Washinjfton to run for Sen ator from North Carolina. A bird in the hand is worth two in tho bush, and Britt is fixed as long as the Republicans remain in power. So tho nomination goes begging. The way to political prefer ment within tho Republican party in North Carolina is not through running for olHco but through holding Federal onicos. To run for governor is tlm same as run ning for Fodoral Judge, but to run for United States Senator is tho same as running for oblivion.

Everything in church growth waits on this. This is a great task, and to ac complish it will require a quick ened conncience as to the mean ing of the divino call to tho min istry l a profound sense of re sponsibility for the support of the part in bringing in the Kongdom. 4.. Every local church should contribute and pray and work as an integral part of a Denomina tion. Separated into individual or local congregational units it is evident that the church of Christ cannot accomplish its mission in the world, for none of these is sufficient of itself for the task.. And so Christ prayed for his dis ciples “that they all may be one." This prayer will be realized in ita fullest extent before the end comes. But there is no excuse for the members of his body, tho Church, who now unite themselves into one denomination, and pro fess to have the same views, the aame ambitions and the same gen ministry, and more, much more oral ta.sk, and yet who do not money willingly ofTered to God w o r k and pray and give in unison by Methodist Pi'otoatnnt poop|e, to make it poimililo .-o pray consis tently and sincerely,. “Thy King dom come.” The ideal of bringing all Me thodist Protestants into a union like this ought not to be thought dillicult or at all impracticable.] But it ia far from being too i it is doubtless less evident in our iireat a task for us to accomplish.

We can pray for ono another and thus excite and in- “that they which proach the gos- crease our sympathy; wo can ac- pel should live of tho gospel”; ' eept and work at the same task; the General Conference has re cognized that it is tho business of the whole church to see that adequate support be given to ministers giving full time, and has placed in the Budget provi sion for a small fund to supplo- ment insufflcicnt salaries., Wo have mado a beginning to reach this ideal, but much remains to bo done. Let our younger men and women, both ministerial and lay, give careful thought and en thusiastic support to it, and thia quadrennium'will witness a great advance. and we can unite our contribu tions and thus provide for an ef fective impact on the world we aro striving to win. This is all'the more inoumbent on us because we are not one of tho large denominations. It is said that one-fourth of tho mem bers in all tho churches give noth-' ing and do nothing. A church of a million membors thight suf-j for thia largo defection and yet not sucumb; because they would; still havo loft a groat army of contributors and \yorkers.

It is a melancholy fact thnt a. great many of our churches now lio nothing at nil in tho \vay of lege. Mr'. Bliiir gives; tiiu experience of Tom GriillnVof Bertie-county. Mr. Griflln is a gradiiato of State Callege, former vice-president of the State Farmers' Convontioii and one of the most prominent farmers of the county. Soma years ago, he decided to find out if the practice of growing pea nuts and cotton year after yeàr on the same land, as practiced by his fellow farmers, would be pro fitable. He set aside a special field for the teat and grew pea- outa on the land during the first, third and fifth years of the test. Cotton was grown o nthe aame land during the second, fourth and sixth year. Notning waa ap plied to the peanuts except land plaster, while the cotton received from 400 to 500 pounds of an 8- 3-i) fertilizor with a top-dressing of 100 pounds of mtrate of soda per acre. No cover crops weru grown. As a result of the test, Mr. Grillin found that the yield of cot ton remained stationary during the aix years yielding an average of one-iuilf bnlo, per aero. 'I’ho peanuts stnrted the test by yield ing an average of 90 bushels per acre. During the third year, this yield dropped-to 72 bushels,per aero and, to 40 bushels at,tho close of tho fifth year. At the end of tho six years, Mr. Griflln tlocided thiit lie had car ried tho practice aa long as need ed to demonstrate that tho land was steadily losing in fertility. He then planted corn in wido rows and broadcasted cowpeas at the last cultivation. The cowpea vinos wero turned under. This addition of organic nnmer raised tho yield bf cotton irom one-half bale to two-thirds of a bio dur ing tho eighth yoar and when peanuts wero planted during tho ninth year they yielded at tho rate of 80 bushels per acre, Whllo this wns not up to the original yield, it doubled the yield secur ed at tho close of the planting test, states Mr. Blair.

PEACH WORM* CONTROLLEb BY PROE‘ER SPRAY Raleigh, April 21.—The peach "'onom -ao th‘is“‘is largely the grower who wishes to produce- result of nni't-timo nastors. and Iruit ot quality will spray hisresult of part-time pastors, and hence the lack of leadership. It is to be remedied by obtaining full time pastors, flrst of all. But oven with this the members o,f tho church aro to blame for tho present situation. If every mem- bor i-ealized tho signfflcanco of his membership tho condition would be improved at once. And to realize thc significance of church membership dobs not wait on new methods; ii «omeu homo to each member for consideration and prayer. Personal service is the key note to' disciuleship. If a church member is not render- fruit to control the curculio or poach worm which causes heavy damage in all peach growing sec tions. “Tho curculio is a beetle which passes the winter as an adult and oiherges in tho spring before the fruit is set,” says C. H. Brannon, extension entomologist at State College. "Just after the petals fall, the curculio lays ita eggs in tho young peach. The larva or worm spends about 20 days feed ing in tho peach, leaves the fruit and enters the soil whorp it chang es to the pupa stage in earthen Á. ProRnim for tlie Methodist Protestant Church. It is not so much whiit a church has done in the i)ast, but what it intends to , do. in the future that measui'cs its dignity and value to tho world, A program, or an out line of work which it believes its constitution nnd situation require of it is, therefore, the be.st'appeal it can make to the world for its prospority, its efHciency and its permanence. Such .\n outline, not thc only one, of course, nor, in the technical sense, an autho ritative' one,' is here presented. There is nc doubt in tHe. minds of those who have given' ‘ -hnost consideration to the future of the Methodist Protostiua church, that these ideals do sum up for oiir generation work, most important to bo done, and work that wo are fully able to. do if we dedicate ourselves to it., Tliey may be called our four ideals: ■■. ,, i, Every Methbclist ^ paatoral:_^i^jmrge!^:,sliib^ ing any personal sei^ice to Christ ’ ‘»J« three inches be- he is none of his, and if there is lo"’ ^he surface of the soil. Inabout ten days, this pupa emerg es asran adult and is soon ready to lay eggs again.” To control this pest, Mr. Bran non advises a first aijplication of dust or spray, when about 75 per cent of the flower petals have fallen. The spray recommended no organized effort in a church, personal service is more diflicult and less likely. 3. Every local church should raise money and ust: money ac cording to business methods; that is, every church should make an annual budget.', • Some persons insist that the lack of business methods in mat ters of finance is tho root of all the-evils wo suffer from. Per haps that may be ¡extreme. Tho root mtiy lie deeper. But this is certainly one of tho very first mainfeatations of the ovih Tho member who takes nis flnanciai obligations to the church easily is likely to take no other obliga tion seriously. A reform in this matter is loud ly called for. The local church should begin the year with mak ing an account' of all its obliga tions for the year. This must in clude not only pastor’s salary and the necessary provision for the current expenses of the church, but it must also include its por tion oC the expenses of the An nual Conferohco; and its obliga tions to the General Conference. No church can live to itself. To include, these three obligations into one Budget, and to .pyesent this Bu(|ge,tto;eyery',,ma^ is ono pound of arsenate of lead to fifty gallons of water plus lime water from three pounds of stone jinio. As a dust, use five percent of lead arsenate and 95 per cent of lime. The second application is applied when the calyces or shucks aro shedding or when tho small poaches are exposed, using the same material, The third application ia made four weeks before each variety is dfie to ripon. As a spray, Mr. Brannon re'cominond.s tho material as given in the first and second applications using, the self-boiled lime sulphur (8-8-50) for disea» es. The (iry mixed lime sulphur may be used in place of the self boiled lime sulphur using the fol lowing dust, 80 percent sulphur, 5 percent lead arsenate and 15 per cent lime.

The minute it gets hack home that “Lcmmie” is talk ing to himself up there, “Lemmie” will stop talking. You know why they won’t listen to anybody up there?

DEATH OF A CANINE Look for Bargains! Everybody Welcome to U] (By Charlie McSwain.) Rattler, jiist plain unadoriied Kattler was hia name. But ho was ono of the most remarkable dogs that has ever burked or howled in Stanly county; Certainly he was the most reniarkiiblo dog I. have ever known. Ho was not a fine nor handsome dog, but just a plain black hound with a few scattered whiskers about his muz zle. He wtis the property of a boyhood friend of mine, who by the way, adored and loved every black hair that Rattler had. Virtues and good qualities. Rat tler had none, at least none that were perceptible. He was of ob scure stock to begin with, the fates were against him and he had no chances. During the sum mer months Rattler would lay flat on his stomach in the shade of some tree, hia nose thrust for ward and one eye closed. He kept one eye opened for flies. He wns not nfllicted with the barking habit, he was too lazy to apend hia breath in such a vain pursuit. Ih the winter months Rattler waa allowed to lie in front of the fire and sleep. He had several bad habits; sucking eggs, and smoking ciga rettes were the two outstanding ones. Rattler, however, was not wholly to blame for his smoking maiiia, this having béen thrust upon him by his evil-minded mast er. During his puppyhood he had been taught to smoke cigarettes in order that his master might show him off before his friends. Of course, the cigarette had to be lighted and placed in his mouth in order thnt he might pufi away, but once in his mouth Rattler was an expert smoker. He would also show off; blow smoke through his nose and out of hia eyes., You could see him laughing behind his ears while he was puffing away upon a cigarette. And naturally when Rattler had grown to be a full sized dog and mature in years he continued his smoking. He learned to watch for people to throw away cigarettes for whereupon he would run and snatch them up and walk away smoking. I It was nothing strange to see him trotting down the road with a cigarette held between his lips and puñing away. In time' this became the talk of the neigh borhood; people were filled with fear lest he would some day burn up a house, barn, or something. Following the talk, evil minded folks began to plot to kill Rattler. They contended that no such dog should be allowed the right of liberty and iife.

Blood ran in puddles away from poor old Rattler, ilis master and I both howled loudly in our weeping. All thc houaehold was summon ed to render aid to the dying Rat tler. And after so long a time we had picked the shot from his flesh and had his split shoulder sewed up with .silk thread. Rattler was placed in the barn upon nice warm hay and give milk to drink.

Nptwithr standing, the child was one of the meanest little fellows who ever drew breath, and had goaded the dog into bitting him by piilling his tail and twisting his ears, the child’s parents demanded the death of Rattler. His master had an "old man” of course and he too agreed that the good-for-noth ing hound should be killed. Thus it waa that I came to the aid of Rattler myaelf. I sneaked him away with me and kept him shut in a stable,'for two weeks until the trouble,ble,'wv,^ov(fi'.

He is a-not- ed Prench physician, and he claims that there is a possibility that youth may be decidedly pro- " longed, if not made perpetual. Well, possibly, but we are still of the opinion thnt the surest “fountain of youth" for a while yet, ^ Is clean living. ■ It is refreshing to occasionally read of-whore a victim of an in tended robbery turns upon ihis assallénts and frams on them. Such á thing occurred a few nights ago iii Salisbury when '.would bo robbers assaulted, one of the night watchmen at a Salis bury cotton mill. The nien struck the Salisbury man with an iron bar and although his skull was fractured ho^ turned on the men, snatched the bar froni the man ■ who‘struck him and dealt him a blow which caused both men to ' make a quick 'decision that they were about to fall into unsafe hands. Hendersonville’s biggest temp- • tation will be to lose her head and'rob her guests,” says the Ilohdersonylllo News, adding: : “Keep your feet on the ground 'and your head out of the clouds.” ^hen one consixlers that Hend ersonville is in the very midst of ^theigreatest boom North Carolina "hals eyár¡ known, and when one cotiisiders., the fate of Florida ".whlcK was duè in a measure to ^f^i'Mpple òf that state “robbing * jUheiRjiluests," it can be seen what « 'wnblesome piece of advice' the News ; handed out to its readers whcn jt madé thè above statement. North Carolina’s fertilizer bilí ■ for , the year ' 1919 amounted to more thnn forty-eight million dol lars^ expcedlng that of any other state in the union for, that year, except South Carolina which spent over fifty two millions for / commercial fertilizers, according to a statement in the University Newò Letter. In a , way that speaks well for our state as a ' progressive agricultural state. It proves that pur farmers are de termined to make two and three blades’ of grass grow where only oné has been growing. And tho results have placed tho value of our state’s farm products right at the'head of the list among the states, taking, the state as a whole. other conventions, to be held in ,the State under the party plan of organization; Ghairhian Peeble.s c.illod the meeting to order at three o’clock and immediately ttirned thc chair oyer to Robert S. McNeill who presided through out the proceeding. T. J. Caudell whs chosen secretary. A poll of the several county precincts show ed all represented by delegates ex cept three. By unanimous vote it was de cided to elect as delegates there to, all good Deiiiocrats of Davie Coiinty who might arrange to be present at the several conventions to be held in the State under the Democratic plan of organization, and a great many of the delegates present 'signified their intention of attending the ,State Convention today. In the absence of further busi ness the convention adjourned, with all present in agreement that the prospects for complete success in the coming elections seem cer tain and sure. DIAMOND* FLASHES PASEBALL; Thursday, May 6, 1926, 3 O’clock, p. m. MocksvlVe High School —vs— The Lions Club Local fans are promised an ex hibition of real baseball when the feature game of the season is called at High School Grounds next Thursday afternoon. “Lefty” Clement, the spit-bai; king, is slated to do the slab-work for the Lions and by .way of pre paration, has supplied himself with an accumulation of liniments of various sorts to make siire his trusty left will bè “wèll-oiled." Watch “Spider” Choate eat ’em up in the out-field. “Spider” has been practicing all thc week and Trainer Caudell declares him to ■be in the “pink’? of condition. “Rube” Holleman, of former sand-lot fame and now of magiste rial dignity, still has his old bat ting eye with him, so look out, High out-fieldersi . And say, you fans, you want to watch “Mutt” Call. This vet eran back-stop who has been on the "receiving” end for a long time is showing some-real class and will doubtless furnish the High School lads some genuine thrills if they attempt tq pilfer that second sack. “Doc” Harris’ work at third fully vindicates his boast that he is D IST A N T LY related to “Bucky” and “Joe.” In addition to being a fast fielder, this young ster is a hitter of unusual ability. His stick work promises to be an outstanding feature of Thursday’s battle. Won’t it be worth a dollar of any man’s money to see “Lightn- in’ ” Keg Angel, “Smoky” Phil Johnson and “Rabbit” Larew chasing those flies in the outfield? “Casey” Morris is another slug ger whose willow-wielding is like ly to be of the stellar variety.

That fellow, Mussolini, has it in his head that he is the rein carnation uf Julius Caesar or Na poleon, and the ever growing evi dences of his ambition would in dicate to us that the King of Italy may well watch hi.^ thi*one, other wise within tw.o y,w|rs from now Mussolini will be its occupant, not as a king, but as emperor of the new Roman Empire. That fellow is a dangerous man, and the world had better keep an eye on him. Like Caesar, “he is ambitious” and like that same Roman, he is a power with which to deal.

The largest congregation for some time attended the morn ing worship. The pastor was greatly pleased at the attendance of tho young men and smaller boys and girls. Why not have this so, every Sunday? Several went from Cooleemee to the Quarterly Meeting of the Davie county division of the South Yadkin Woman’s Mission Union, which was held at,Eaton’s church last Sunday afternoon. The Eat on’s Folks were in a mighty good humor and rejoicing in, their'suc cess in building such a splendid house of worship. The meeting was very interesting and all who attended were instructed and edi fied. This pastor wishes all our women, and as for that part, the men of the churches vyould read and study the literature put out by the women of our churches. It would make a new day in the work of , the Lord.

We have rio evidence'whatever that anything o f this kind occurs, or isVat. all likely to occur. But ' there is quite an interesting idea in the stiitement thnt has been made by some students of thc- brain that there are certain por tions , or lobes of our cerebrum that are apparently undeveloped thus far nnd seem to serve no par ticular function In brain activity. Ono scientific writer throws out the suggestion that perhaps these will eventually develop in such n way, as to become sensitive to tho reception of ethereal waves. Is that, indeed, to be the direction of mankind’s “evolution” in the: future? Greenville News: Scientists continue to dig up alleged evidences of “brain wav es.” That is, they contend that movements of the ether, somewhat similar to radio waves, are creatr ed by the various processes of mental activity, and that these waves can be measured by deli cate instruments. Three reput able scientists within the last year have claimed to hnve discovered these “brnin waves," the Inst ns- serton coming from Dr. E, D. Ad rian, of Cambridge, England, There is really nothing surp^-is-, ing in this, however. It has long been known that an electric cur rent produces disturbances in tho ether around it and in fact that is a fundamental fact pf all electric science, making possible the ope ration of motors and dynamos. The human body (seems to oper ate largely by electricity. Every little chemical change within tho billions of cells in the body sets up its little electrical impulse.

She waa 68. Miss Williams' hip was broken last December and she had been confined to her bed ever since. Death was due to appoplexy. She had lived with her niece. Miss Catherine C. Williams, since her retirement in 1524. Miss Williams was principal of the Girls’ School at the Housfli of Refuge here when she wns chosen in i 878, to be the-model for the Goddess upon the silver dollar. Her profile' was considered the most perfect that could be found nt the time. Only upon condition that her identity should not be re vealed would Miss Willinms con sent to hnve her likeness stamped upon the new silver dollar, the Treasury had decided to mint. For two years the incognito of “Miss Liberty” the Woman’s face on the dollar, remained a secret in the keeping of the Government and tho artist. Then a Philadel phia newspaperman discovered and revealed thnt Miss Williams was the “silver dollar girl.” Follpwing camp, ofifers of stage engagements, all of which Miss Williams rejected.

For tho first time there become.«* avallnblo a vnst library of information direct ly touching the early history, of the State. It has been lying In vaults in Madrid, Seville and Simancus for centuries. 'rranslation and publication of tho archives will be undertaken as soon as arrangements can bo made and adequate funds secur ed. Photostatic copies of tho ar-! chives have been received here,. and the translation will be undor- taken at an early date. Thus far only notes of the contents of the documenta are ilvailable, but they indicate clearly , a close connec- tibii with the'history of tho State, and many startling new disclosuiv es. First intimations tnat the Spa nish records might contain data of interest to tho North Carolina historian came from Dr. William R. Shepherd, professor of Spanish history at Columbia University. Dr. Shepherd,’ while examining some of the records in Simancus, discovered several,that contained roferoncos to explorntions ' that extended from Florlan into North Cnrolina. Dr. W. W. Pierson, professor of history lat the vniversity of North Carolina, was in Europe on a leave of nbsence at the time, and on behalf of the Commission ho undertook a more detailed in vestigation. Ho found more docu ments in Madrid «nd Seville, Many of them were poorly kept, and some had been destroyed. Spain had 'lost Interest in them but declined to give them up. There are thousands of Items in tho records dealing with the ear ly colonization enterprises of the Spaniards^ \ Permissipn was secured from the-Spanish govornment-to_hava. photostatic copies made of tho re cords, and the work waa entrust ed to Miss Irene A. Wright, an American woman who has boefi doing research work in Spain for several years. She has gone thru the mass of records, selecting on ly matter that deals directly with North Carolina. Thus far 10,- 000 pages of manuscript have been photographed and sent here. The records are mainly reports of expenditions sent out to ex;plore the New World and to check the expansion of the English evplora- tions. The Spaniards found them- selve.9 shut in with only Florida undisputedly theirs. The British had taken the West Indies, and wore planning to colonize the main land. The Spaniards' were particularly jealous pf the attempt to plant a colony in North Caro lina. Translations have not yet be gun, but it is indicated that, there was undertaken an expedition along the North Carolina coast toward tlie end of. v,he sixteenth century to put down the attempts of the English to plant a colony there.

Turn jifii the right of a few miles this -jiide of the State’s great winter jreeoH. Drive through the peach «orchards deeper into the sand- ;bills. Three miles off of the jnain highway, where the long Jeaf pines are a little taller and •the sand is a little whiter and the peach blossoms have a little 3-icher tint, you will find an im- jjosing group of buildings.

The seed was sown by hand from a wide sack carried by the sower; it was cut by means of the old-fashioned “cradle,” the human reaper, being followed by a boy, who raked it into small pil es, to be bound into sheaves by another'man, using stalks of the wheat itself as a bin'ar. In many communities, the grain was sepa rated from the straw by being beaten on the threshing floor with flails. Good roads were practically un known and in rainy seasons most highways were entirely impas sible. There were few vehicles aside from the farm wagon, which served all the transportations needs of the day. 'fhere was no rural mail delivery and the aver age farm family had but slight and infrequ’ent communication with the rest of the world. How changed are conditions now! With better roads, automo biles, telephones, radio, improved implements and machinery, to gether with innumerable other facilities and conveniences, rural life is today an entirely different proposition. Yet still better conditions nre already in sight. The extension of electricity to the farm is going forward by. leaps and bounds. At a great conference recently held at Montgomery, Ala., Vice-Pres. Mitchell of the Alabama Power Company told of the building of rural electric lines in that stnio alone at a cost of more than half a million dollars, which he said was' only a beginning Other speakers related similar stories of progress in widely separated s^tes. Visits were made by the delegates to model farms, fully electrified, where the drudgery of the'past has been largely elimi nated through the use of modern equipment, - With the advent of electricity on the farm, rural life is enter ing upon a new and better era, in which many of the appliances anfl methods of today will in time be come as antiquated as the wheat cradle and the flail oi fifty years ago.

Conditions are rapidly reaching the state where the majority of car own ers, supporters and payers for the highways, are'being forced to dis continue the use of them at times. Drunk or reckless drivers, in many cases having no responsibi lity or as.sets, clear the road as they go. That they kill and maim apparently makes no dif ference. Once at the wheel of an automobile, they assume supreme dictatorship of- the highway. You, sober and with your fami ly out for a Sunday ride, have no business on a highway. If you should by chance get on one of the roads that you- have helped pay for, you do so at your own responsibility. Your car may have cost a thousand dollars or more, but the worn out, $50 tin can has the road. When you see it coming, take to the woods. He may or may not get you. The chances are against you, though, as several cases have been\report- ed of drunken negroes driving en tirely off the road in order to hit another car. Public sentiment -will stand for a lot. But some times even worms turn. ‘ Sentiment against drunken drivers is getting pro nounced. Rough treatment has been suggested. Courts, it is claimed, have been too lenient. No doubt there is a remedy. Some day it will be found. The state police plan, as worked in many states,, has proven of,great value'in this respect. Uniform ed,: motorcycle police, und.er state supervision, with no local attnch- nients, and with authority to; act deffriltelyi’ will do much to clear service decidedly predominating their lives. And that being the case, no wonder North Carolina is becoming the best advertised state in the union. ' And the banks, too, are playing their part won derfully toward developinif the state. ; Nearly everybody has learned that not only is building and loan a fine method of saving, but that the various local organizations aro real, home builders. Here are some suggestions nnd filgures which are taken from a recent issue of tho Chapel Hill News Let ter: , . "In no department of statistics will be found any better story in tabloid than that of the building and loan associations of North Carolina which now have 256 local organizations with assets in excess of $74,000,000.

B, Ellis, in favor of his former attorneys, Walter Brock, S. Porter Graves, William Graves, L. V. Scott, P. W. Glide- well, L. D. Robinson, T. L. Caudle and R. S. Pruett, who were sue- ing for a fee of $15,000. It appears that the jury has satisfied neither side. Mr. Ellis has already indicated his inten tion of carrying the case to Su preme court and the lawyers evi dently want what was promised them. The jury found that there had been a contract between Mr. Ellis and thè plaintiffs to the ef fect that the latter would be paid $15,000 but also found that at the time this contract was made plaintiff and defendant were bear ing the relation of attorneys to client and under those conditions a fee contract is not, -yajid, and it is left vip (f),the jury to aay how much the services were i worth.

Wallace testfied that for the services rendered a $15,000 fee was reasonable. This fee was a contingent fee and it is stated by lawyers that such fees are always much higher than fees where the farty is as sured of a fee in case of either losing or winninti. The case in which the plaintiffs appeared as attorneys for the de fendant was one in which Mr. El lis was seeking to recover proper- tj’, said to be worth in the neigh borhood of $90,000, from his wife Clara Ellis, The attorneys were successful in securing for Mr. El lis pi’operty estimated to be worth between $35,000 and $40,000 and in addition gained an annuity of $1,500 on certain property held by his wife to be increased to $2,000 in 1928, Mr. Ellis claimed that the victory was not aa complete as his former attorneys said. This is one of the most unusual cases efer tried in a Forsyth court and has attracted considerable at-' tention over North Carolina as well as in local legal circles.

HARDEST WORKED MAN IN THE STATE Is nt His Desk From 12 to 11 Hours Each Day, Maiiy Times For Longer Period WORK HAS PILED ON HIM Last Legislature Put Additional Burdens, and Today He is the Officiating Head of More Boards, Commissions, etc.. Than Any Governo|r Who Has Ever Been In Raleigh Lord Chamberlain, British for^ eign minister, once declared him self the hardest worked man in the world. Without knowing the illustrious minister of foreign affairs, this correspondent respectfully con tests that claim and nominates for the dubious honor Governor Angus Wilton McLean of North Carolina. A concise statement of his of- flcial duties, both constitutional and statutory, fills four printed pages, and each Legislature adds to them, Tho 1926 Legislature, for an example massed thc execu tive budget act, making the gover nor the director of the State’s budget and imposing upon him the responsibility for the balanc ing 0.1 the State’s expenditiiros and receipts at the close of each fiscal year; the salary and wage commission act which gives the governor final responsibility for approval of classification and equalizing of the salaries of all State employees; the emergency loan act and other fiscal measur es. In all it multiplied his res ponsibilities and consequent act ual labor by five. The only relief accorded to oiYest this multipli cation of duties was the authoriz ation of the art)ointment of a pardon commissioner, who inves tigates all petitions for such exe cutive clemency.. Even then, fin al action remains vested in the governor. Thru oversight, perhaps, the same Legislature neglected to add more hours to each day or more days to each week, so the gover nor must' crowd into the same periods of time accorded by Na ture private individuals, for the transaction of their lesser duties, the work incumbent upon what must be ono of the hardest jobs in the world. To make up for this oversight, the governor has been forced to draw upon wliat, normally, would be his leisure time and ever since his inauguration, ho has spent from twelve to fourteen hours every day on the State’s business. By 8:30 every morning'he is at hia desk in tho mansion. He re mains there, or at the desk in the executive offlce in tho State capi- tol, until 1 o’clock or later. After seizing fifteen or twenty minutes for lunch, ho-returns to the daily grind, usually at the capitol, and remains at work until 7 o’clock, dinner time. Even the after din ner hours cannot be called his own and, as a rule, it ia necessary for him to give two or three of those precious hours to the work of the State, in order that there may be no undue delays in the transaction of matters of immedi ate importance and that the rou tine of tho following day may not be handicapped by left-over busi ness. Frequently'he is called out of the city, but that can hardly bo called recreation or relief for usually there are addre’sses to make or business matters to at tend to. Even if it bo one of those infrequent trips without pressing business at the end there can bo no peace of mind. The State’s business waits for no man. There c.an be no real rest with work piling up at home in such volume thi^t a week of double time labor yil.l be ,required .to'ca^^^^ Looking T HE SOUTH’S NEED for greater railroad service in the next few years is a problem which the manage ment of the Southern Railway System must solve now. Planning years ahead is a prime requisite of adequate railroad service. The heavy freight movement throughout the South has naturally increased our total revenues. W e have been able to effect many economies in operation which have correspondingly increased our net income and permitted us to pay dividends to our stockholders. But traffic in the South will continue to grow. W e must ~cratinue to expand OUT faciliti^in“oK^ our service €/ may keep pace with the demands upon it. Good eiarnings will make it possible tp attract additional capital as needed . to make necessary improvements. j,. The business interests of the South have a definite interest in the prosperity of their largest railway system. Con tinued good earnings by the Southern will insure the > continuation of adequate transportation service to the ' South. ^ O U T M R N L Wtiw South In addition to the multifarious ofilcial duties attached to the of fice of governor, there are a mil lion and ono unofficial, duties with which in dividuals infist upon burdening their chief executive. One day’s mail is enough to show that the governor is ex of ficio father confessor to a goodly proportion of the citizens of tho State. He is head of the State government, the reason, why shouldn't he be the one to go to relief in their personal perplexi ties? Promptly, and preaistentiy, they take their troubles to him, in person or by letters or tele- igram. A woman in a far-off county ex periences difficulty in securing permission to visit a friend in the county poorhouse. At once, she writes the governor, confident that he will dispatch by return mail an open se-same to the doors of the institution which she claims are closed to her. Ahother woman (women are much more confidential than men) has had domestic troubles. She pours out her troubles in a four- page letter to the governor in the belief that he will use the infinite power of hia offlce to bring about domestic tranquiljty. Eeach day’s mail brings from one to a dozen requests for con tributions to funds and campaigns of every conceivable nature. Usu ally, tho governor is asked to head tho list of donors with a aubstan- tial contribution, the purpose, either expressed or implied, be ing that few will be able to resist aflixing their names to a list head ed by the governor. If the chief executive responded to all such appeals, he could easily give away his entire year’s salary in a day’s time. Scores of letters are- received from convicts, lunatics and in mates of other instiutions. The ruling passion of everyone who considers himself ill-treated or discriminated against seems to bo to reach the governor, and many of them' do. Their complaints range from the pathetic to the ludicrous. Mothers whose boys a,ve serving time on county chaiii gangs or in State penal institutions write a protest that their sons nre inno cent arid failed to secui’o fair trials in which they would have been absolved of guilt: The judge ^as prejudiced, ^tboy^^ defendants were too poor to re tain counsel, the attorneys assign ed by tho court to defend them were lacking in abilJty or refused to take enough interest in the cases to clear their impoverished clients. Mothers are' the last' to admit that their boys might have done wrong. By letter and in personal visits they pour out the pent-up anguish of broke« moth ers hearts before the governor. Such cases are thc hardest of all to pass upon calmly and dispas sionately, solely upon thoir me rits, but that is what must be done'. Hundreds of anonymous inform ers write in to tell of law viola tions, usually infractions of the prohibition law. Not only are these communications usually an onymous, but the information in almost every instance is insuffici ent as a basis for action of aiiy kind. In the few cases where the writers sign their names, they in sist that the information they give be held strictly confidential. As if the governor hadn’t en ough to do with State administra tion, literally dozens of letters are received complaining of misman agement of county, town and municipal affairs by elective of ficers. The belief, in most cases, seems to be that the governor will proceed at once to the scene of the, alleged trouble, promptly dis charge the offleiais against whom complaints have been lodged, and put into offlce an entirely new set of officials, undoubtedly include ing the complainant. ,A dozen or more requests for autographs are received each week, most of them fi’om persons who are collecting signatures of governors of all the. forty-eight States. ' Letters from persons quite evi dently mentally unbalanced are not infrequent. Such letters set forth tho hallucinations of the writers, contain : denouncements of'everything in genernl and, fre quently, remedies for all the world’s ills. .Most of tbem say nothing and require a half doz en pages to say it. Each letter is rend and, where ' possible, a prompt and courteous answer returned. This is impos sible in a large .number of cases,, such as .those in which the writ ers shield tl^eir Identity behind a ipaak pt anqnmity. • warrant it, the writer is invited ; to confer with the governor at tlm mansion or tho executive offlce. Few of the letters which find their way into the file kept for odditius merit such recognition, however. Each person who takes his, or her, pen in hand to write the gov ernor about the trivial matter which seems of paramount im portance to the writer, probably considers himself the only person thus to approach the chief ad ministrative officer, but taken al together, this class, of e.'ctraordin- ary requests consumes no little of the time of the governor and his crops of assistants. Even the reading of these mailed oddities takes many hours of someon’» time, in the course of a month or a year, Wei’O tho governor to take official, cognizance of every request, he woiild have little time left for anything else. The affairs of the State of Nevs^ York are not so much more com plex than those of North Carolina, yet Governor Al Smith of the Em pire State has a staff of seventeen employees in his office, with a pay- .roll of some $56,000 annually. North Carolina’s governor has three persons employed in the ex ecutive office iind one at the man sion with an aggregate payroll of iapproxlmately $10,000. While on the War Finance Board in Washington during t''® war. Governor McLean (then merely A. W. McLean, private citizen) did the work which, pre viously, had been portioned to three positions.

A BAÎ? ìiA iìlT CAUSED THE DEATH OF A CANINE Congress No. 2 St.itistics hnve proven that only onc-hal{ of one per ccnt of thc speeches made in Congress are liV tcned to. A great many Congress men speak IN, but not TO, Con gress. But every spccch is published in the rccord. They send the rec ords bnck home to show ‘‘What , they told ’em up there in Washing ton." Now the people back home think Congress heard their "Lem” tell ’em this. Now, here is my scheme to stop speech making. A Bill reading as follows: “Congressional Rccord nuist not only contain speecli, but number of members, and names who listened to speech, and why." For instance: “Congressman Post Hole arose to a point of informa tion nnd spoke at length on, ‘Is Locarno a town, or is it a Treaty ?’ Length of .speech, without waiting for .npplause, four hours, thirty-six minutes; attendance. Gout (Rep. N. Y .): ‘Unable to get out.’ Sixty- iorty (Dem. N. J .) : ‘Case of reci procity, he listened to mine.’ Low brow (Rep. Mass.): ‘I was asleep, even the good speakers haven’t woke me up.’ " Now I claim that will stop some spcech making. The minute it gets back home that “Lemmie” is talk ing to himself up there, “Lemmie" will stop talking. You know why they won’t listen to anybody up there ? They have gone out to smoke, that’s why, and you know why they’ve gone out to smoke? Whv, "Bull’i Durham, of course. IT’S BETTER THAN ANY SPEECH EVER MADE. . P S.

But he Was one. of the most roniarkable dogs that has ever barked or howled in Stanly county. Certainly he, was the most remarkable dog' I have ever known. He was not ■ a fine nor handsome dog, but just a plain black hound with a few scattered whiskers about his muz zle. He was tho property of a boyhood friend of mine, who by the way, adored and loved every black hair that Rattler had. Virtues and good qualities. Rat tler had none, at least none that were perceptible. He was of ob scure stock to begin with, the fates were against him and' he had no chances. During the sum mer months Rattler would lay flat on his stomach in’the shade of some tree, his nose thrust for ward nnd one eye closed. He kept one eye opened for flies. He -w,'.«! not affiicted with the barking habit, he was too lazy to spend his breath in such a vain pursuit. In the winter months Rattler was allowed to lie in front of the fire and sleep. He had several bad habits; sucking eggs, and smoking ciga rettes'were the two outstanding ones. Rattler, however, was not wholly to blame for his smoking mania, this having been thrust upon him by his evil-minded mast er. During his puppyhood he had been taught to smoke cigarettes in order that his master might show him off before his friends. Of course, the cigarette had to be lighted and placed in .his mouth in order that he might puff away, but once in his mouth Rattler was an expert smoker. He would also show off; blow smoke through his nose and out of his eyes. You could see him laughing behind his ears while he was puffing away upon a cigarette. And naturally when Rattler had grown to be a full sized dog and mature in years he continued his smoking. He learned to watch for people to throw away cigarettes for whereupon he would run-and snatch them up and walk away smoking. It was nothing strange to see him, trotting down the I'oad with a cigarette held between his lips and puffing away. In time this became the talk of the neigh borhood; people: were filled with fear lest he would some day burn up a house, barn, or something.

Another scientist comes along with the claim that he has made, ' and is making; a discovery which Avill finally result In “a perpetual fountain of youth." He is a not ed French physician, and he claims that there, is a possibility that youth may be decidedly pro longed, if not made ,perpetual. ' Well, possibly, but we are still of the opinion that the surest “fountain of youth" for. a while yet, is clean living.' • ' ---- — ■ It is , refreshing to occasionally read of where a victim of an in tended robbery turns upon ihis asaaiients and frams on them. ' Such a thing occurred a few eights ago in Salisbury when two '“woina H^robbers aseaQlted one of the night watchmen at a Salis bury cotton mill. Tho men struck the Salisbury man with an iron b ar and although his skuU was fractured he turned on the men, ‘ enatched the bar from the man 'Who struck him and dealt him a "blow which causéd both men to imake a quick decision that they ■were.' about to fall into unsafe • hands. _________ ■ Hendersonville’s biggest temp tation will be to lose her head ‘ and rob. her ' guests,” says the Hendersonville Nows, adding: “ICeep your feet on the ground and your head out of the cloiids." , When one considers that Hend- ereonyilìò is in the very midst 6f > the greotest boom North Carolina has teyer, and when one lioneidert. the fate of ' Florida -IVhic^Was due in a measure to th* i^ipplo of that 'State "robbing .ibeiiiiSueHts,” it can be seen what wholesome piece of advice the 4ew» handed out to its readers when it made the above statement. ' North CarpjinTa fertilizer bill for the year 1919 amounted to more than forty-eight million dol- , lars, exceeding that of any other ’ state in the union for that year, ,excèpt South Carolina which ' spent over fifty two millions for commercial fertilizers, according to a statèment in the University News Letter. In a way that ' speaks well for our state as a , progressive agricultural state. It ¿roves that our farmers are, de- termined to make two and three, blades of gras.4 grow where only one has been growing. Arid the results have placed the value of •our state’s fai’m products right .at the héad of the list among the ■ states, taking the state as a whole. V. Last луеек Rome celebrated a ^ birthday’anniversary.for the flrst ! time since the Northern barbari ans over-ran civilization nearly 2,000 years ago. Old grandeur -was again called up for enthusias tic consideration and the new dream of a world power with Kome as its capítol, was encour aged by Mussolini, Italy’s "great . premier, whó sat upon a throne f and viewed the procession. That fellow, Mussolini, has it in his head that he is the rein- , carnation of Julius Caesar or Na poleon, and the ¿ver growing evi dences of his ambition would in dicate td us that the King of Italy may well watch his throne, other- wise within two ywlis from now • Mussolini will be its occupant, not as a king, but а.ч emperor of the jiew Roman Empire. That fellow is.,a dangerous man, and the world : had better keep 'an eye on him. Vbike Caesar, “he is ambitious” and .. like that same Roman, he is a ■power with which to deal. other conventforis to be’held in the State under the party plan of organization. Chairman Peebles called the meeting to order at three o’clock and immediately turned the chair over to Robert S. McNeill who presided through out the proceeding.' T. J. Caudell was chosen secretary. A poll of the several county precincts show ed all represented by delegates ex cept three. By unanimous vote it ^as de cided to elect as delegates there to, all good Democrats of Davie County who might arrange to be present at the several conventions to be held in the State under the Democratic plan of organization, and a great many of the delegates present signified their intention of attending the State Convention today. In the absence of further busi ness the convention adjourned, with all present in agreement that the prospects for complete succes.s In the coming elections seem cer tain and sure.

The largest congregation for some timo attended the morn ing worship. The pastor was greatly pleased at the attendance of the young men and smaller boys and girls. Why not have this so, every Sunday? Several went from Cooleemee to the Quarterly Meeting of the Davie county division of the South Yadkin Woman’s Mission Union, which was held at Eaton’s church last Sunday afternoon. Tho Eat on’s Folks were in a mighty good humor and rejoicing in their suc cess in building such a splendid house of worship. The meeting was very interesting and all who attended were instructed and edi fied. This pastor wishes all our women, and as for that part, the men of the chur/'lies would read and study the literature put out by the women of our churches. It would make a now day in the work of the Lord. The next of the Davie, Group, will likely con vene at Turrentine church. The pastor expects to preach at Cooleemee Sunday morning and night and at Jerusalem in the afternoon at three o’clock. Morn ing subject: "Jonah or a sleep er who fled from God.” At night, “Building a Fire.” "Come let us go up to the house of the Lord.” If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you.

Some ot these have been needed for years, yet state and local authorities have been unable to provide them, partly be- caiise ot the cost, partly because of competition between routes. When a stream separates two counties, or two states, it Is often Impossible to get them to agree where to build or how to divide the cost of a bridge, la such, cases the Federal authority has repeatedly mediated differences and secured construction. Let me men tion some Instances. "Missouri has been a state for over a century. Divided east and west by the Missouri river, communication be tween the two sections has been lim ited, to the state’s disadvantage. Four bridges across the river were required In the national highway program, and Federal co-operation with the state of Missouri has mnde them possible. Two aro completed, the others are un der construction, The four will cost a little more than $2,000,000, the Fed eral contribution being nearly $1,000,- 000.

It Is one of the links in the chain of com munication between New York city and the country at large. In 1924 New Jersey had some $700,000 ot Fed eral aid allotted to her roads and in 1925 over $1,000,000. So the state agreed that this Raritan bridge should bo huilt, costing about $4,000,000.

Three reput able scientists within the last year have claimed to have discovered, these “brain waves,” the last as- serton coming from Dr. E. D. Ad rian, of Cambridge, England.

Arey, in charge of dairy extension work at State College. During 1925, three new cow- testing associations were formed with 61 dairy farmers owning 1,- 936 ; cows. Titese associations were located in Buncombe, 'For syth, Wake nnd Durham counties. There are now flve active associa tions in the State. Theae com prise 103 herds and 2,722 cows. Some of the associations, notab ly the one in Gaston and Meck lenburg counties, are buying feeds and mixing rations at home f'or the cows. During part of 1925, the Gaston-Mecklenburg Associa tion bought cooperatively 345 1-2 ! tons of grain and 75 tons of hay . at a saving of approximately $3,- 450. The better sire campaign carri ed on last year resulted in twelve county agents putting on inten sive campaigns and 250 pure bred dniry bulla were placed. In 1924, Only 49 such bulls were brought into the State. A total of 221 cows were also plnced in 1925. Mr. Arey states that the 16 creameries operating in the Stnte mnde 1,677,000 pounds of butter Inst yenr and that about 7,650 farmers nre furnishing crenm to these plnnts. Nine of . the crenm- eries received nid from the Col- lege last~^af“ ih““Standardizlng their butter. Only four cheese factories ope rated during 1925, but these made 67,000 pounds of Cheddar cheese and the Brushy Fork factory made 2,743 pounds of Swiss cheese. Seven snies of pure bred dairy cnttle were fostered by the dairy extension ofi!lce with 248 nnimais being sold. Some of these came from outside the Stnte while oth ers were both consigned and brought by breeders in North Carolina.

Persons successfully complet ing this course will be given a denominational diploma, and up on certificate from the Board may also secure the diploma of the International' Sunday School Council of' Religious Education. While the Board recommends the three years’ Standard course, we will give a certificate for eith er of the following Standard one year courses, where the three years’ course^annot be taken: "Teaching tho^eacher,’’ “Prepa ration for Teaching” or “Train ing for Service.” Summer Conferences for young people have come to be recognized as one of the most valuable agen cies for the development of life and securing recruits ior-the min-- istry, miBBion fields and other lin es of Christian service. It provides placo for the as- sembling of young people under the most advantageous surround ings where they may receive in formation and inspiration which will enable them to retu rn to th eir local church better prepared for, C hristian service. In order to maintain a deno minational standard and produce uniformity in our Summer Con ferences for young ptople the Board offers four courses of four years each. These courses of study are arranged for Children’s Division Workers, Young People, Loaders of Young People, Adults and Adult Workers. For the completion of either of the four years’ courses, the Board of Young People’s Work will give a Christian Worker’s Certificate. Certificittes will be given at each Summer Conference showing the studies taken an'’ the number of credits received. When uuPI-' cient credits have been secured these may be exchanged for a Christian Worker's Certificate. HELP PREVENT ACCIDENTS Gow Testing Work in Davie County.

Wager, University of North Carolina.) ! Except in a few counties, coun ty government in North Carolina is headless, irresponsible, waste- ful and inefficient. This is piob- ably no more true of North Caro lina counties than of most of the other 8,200 counties in Ihe Unit ed States. A quarter of a century ago James Bryce made such a strong indictment against American city government that’ the cities were aBhT»mêa“âna h^narêas““of th^nT have since reorganized in the interest of efficiency and honesty. More than 300 cities are now ope rating under a commission or commission-manager plan. State governments are also be ing reorganized in the direction of simplification, contralized con trol and business efficiency. As the functions of government in crease and taxes multiply, tax payers are compelled to demand that government be administered on tho same level of business ef ficiency as any other corporation. In other words, they demand that patronage and waste be climinut- ' ed. In tho words of Herbert Quick, “the politician has béon driven into the last ditch and that ditch is the county courthouse.” County government is largely rur al government, so it is the farm er’s job to drive the politician from the courthouse. There are 100 counties in North Carolina. In 1910 they spent ap proximately $5,000,000, and had a bonded debt of $5,000,000. In 192B they spent ?3B,000,000, and had a bonded debt of $102,000,- 000. The per capita tax for coun ty and school purposes in 1910 was $2.25; in 1925, it had risen to $39.30. The per capita State debt rose from $3.20 to $60.64. It does not follow,, however, that there is any more waste propor tionately. Probably the North Carolina farmer is getting more for each dollar he pays in taxes than ever before. This is be cause there is no State property, tax, and all the property tax he pays is spent within the county. Still, he is not getting maximum return.",, for the simple reason | that county government is not ^ organized, equipped and staffed ' to nfcet its enlarged responsibili- I ties. A form of government that served very well when the func tions were few and simple, and expenditures amounted to only $50,000 a year, falls down when functions become more technical and expenditures mount to $350,- 000 a year. i The North Carolina Constitu tion provides for the popular elec tion of the following officials: board of commissioners, treasur- regiater of deeds, surveyor.er sheriff, clerk of superior court, and coroner. The first four, how ever, may be "modified, changed or abrogated” by statute of the General Assembly. In about one- fourth of the counties the treas- urership has been abolished as an elective office, and a bank is selected by the commissioners as fiscal agent. The commissioners have general fiscal and administ rative powers. They determine for what purposes county money shall be spent and they determine tho tax levy. They may buy or sell property or incur an indebt edness in the name of the coun ty. They have a general super vision over all county institutions, except that school matters have been delegated to a school board, and in many counties highway con.struction and maintenance has been delegated to a separate road board. Tax listers and assessors are appointed by the commission ers, and in most counties the sheriff acts as tax collector, as well as a police officer. The sheriff or one of hia deputies acts as jailer. The superior court meets two, three, or four times '!■ . a year in each county. In a few counties there is an inferior court known as a recorder’s court which may, have jurisdiction over the entire county, or only within a particular city. In most counti es there is no inferior court ex cept the justice of peace courts. There are numerous justices of the peace in each county, but on ly a few are active. They no longer have any administrative powers, but are simply petty mag istrates. They have lost the im portance and dignity that they once possessed. It will be seen from this enu meration that there are eight or ten separate departments in coun ty government, with no co-ordln- ation and no responsible execu tive headship. In a limited way the commissioners are the head of the county, but they cannot exert any real control over ofii- cials who are elected by popular vote in the same manner aa them selves. Even if they had the au thority, how can they keep up with county busineaa when they meet only one day a month, and then have-a .score of delegations to receive, and a hundred or more claims to audit? For all practi cal purposes the county haa no head, and it ia not surprising that it does not function efficiently. Any corporation that tried to get along with such an organization would go bankrupt in a month. Tho county’s main source of re venue is the general property tax. In 1920 a State-wide revaluation waa made, and an attempt made to make the tax .books tell' the truth. Since then the State has turned over the property tax ex clusively to the counties, so the assessment of property ia also left pretty much to the county. Consequently, there ia no uni form standard of valuationa be tween countics Neither do aaaes- ament values within a county re present any uniform relation to the true values. Most real estate ranges from 50 to 80 per cent, though it is not uncommon to find property asseased at is full market value. There ia a vaat amount of property, both tangible and' intangible, that eacaperf the tax books entirely. The assessment of property for taxation will nev er be done .satiafaetor'.'.y ao long aa it is loft o'cc.utiively to local men who are in'Jirperienced, an-d who are guided by personal pre- juilicea a:.d political fears. Furth- evniore, property v/ill continue to slip off the tax books until there ¡3 a better metho;l of preparing, ] r'.serving, and revising the tax nil. A few counties have full time tax supervisors who have earned their salaries many times over in the discovery of taxablea. North Carolina countiea are de ficient alao in tax collecting. Tax es become due in Octobei', but the taxpayer has until May to pay. A small.penalty is permitted aft er February, but it is rarely im posed. Frequently the commla-“ sioners extend the taxpaying per iod for several months; and it is not uncommon for a county to be collecting two or three years’ taxes at the same time. Thia is contrary to law, but is a common practice. In one county there are more than $100,000 of back taxes still uncollected. Land sales are only a gesture; rarely is thei'e a foreclosure. None of the other Southern States appears to lose as much from uncollected taxes and yet no State pays more liberal commissions for collecting taxea. The fault is pi’obably due to the prnctice of making the sheriff tax collector. He ia usually a politir clan, and uses the. tax colleetirtg power aa a political inatrument, I have often heard the remark,. "M r.---------------ia a fine sheriff; he never presses me for my tax- e.i.” Thero are a few counties in North Carolina in which modern systems of accounting have yeen installed', t^udits are made periodi- cally, aiid all temptation for the misappropriation' of funds is re moved. In moat countiea, howev er, there is no bookkeeping wor thy of the name. Frequently of ficials make no attempt to keep public funds separiite from their personal funds; they are allowed to go for years without a settle ment; and finally, the recorda on which to base a scttlemont are au incom,plete that a aettlement ia almost ' impoaaiblo. Sometimes a perfectly honest official gets so confused in hia accounts that he innocentlc uses up public funda, and thtín cannot make a settle ment in full. I know of several caaes where this has happened, and the commissioners have com promised and cancelled several thousand dollars of the deficit. No government can rise above the level of its bookkeeping. Lax ity in this respect is constantly tempting ofiicials to be dishonest. Furthermore, it makes it impos sible to discover the leakage in government. An adequate and uniform system of accounting would enable each county to com pare its expenditures item by item with its neighbors. The greatest waste of all in county government is that which grows, out of political patronage. We are ^till committed to the Jacksonian idea that democracy meana the popular election of all public officials for ahort terms, und that any person is qualified to fill any office. We look upon poli tical office not as a trust, but as a reward or prize. We give the offices_to_tho8e_who_have_served. their party faithfully, or to widows, cripples, veterans, or others whom we think deserving. If we want to use this method to administer relief, very well, ¡ but it does not make for econo-1 my. Not only does it fill our of- j fices with incompetents, but it means that those elected must use their office to repay those who elected them, or diapenae favora in order to aecure a re-election. The people expect public officiala to remit feea, lower aaseasmenta, grant rebates, and buy supplies from thoae who elected them. The official muat contribute to tho campaign fund, give to charity, sign notea, and in a hundred ways' keep the good will of his cons-1 tituenta. For all this, the tax-; payor ultimately pays. \Ve have let the office obscure the''work of the office. The .popular election of clerks and administrators is democracy gone to seed. County taxes are excessive be- cauae of' the looae, disjointed, antiquated and unintelligent mer thods used in conducting county busineaa. There can be no relief until we put into practice those same principles that operate in private business—a simple, di rect organization, trained ofiicials, and centralized accounting and control.

This atate has opened its eyes tb the fact that North Carolina is aecond to none when it comes .to holding points and places of attraction and entertainment for outsiders. And this new awakening has not turned the heads of our people. They re tain that old ante-bellum spirit of hospitality. Pinehurst shows that there are few spots on the American continent, Florida not excepted, more attractive to those who want to spend the winter where the climate is ideal, than North Carolina. In summer North Carolina’s mountains and North Carolina’s sea coast make exceed ingly choice retreats from the aun’a furious blaze.

Eastern Counties KEEN COMPETITION HOLDS COST DOWN COW CAN’T MAKE MILK ON A TONIC, INSTITUTE WARNS Grass is a good tonic for the cow but she can't make milk on tonic, according to tho Larrowe Institute of Animal Economics. If she is expected to continue to do a day’s work every day, she will have to get enough to eat of a good nourishing feed. “i'ew dairymen realize that in somp respects a dairy cow is a great deal like a human being,” atatea the Institute. "No human being would stop eating meat and potatoes, simply because he was eating lettuce and spinach to tone up his aystem, yet many ilairyitien believe that their cows do not need grain simply because they have grass to graze on. "Fresh spring grass is a good tonic for the cow. ' It is green, juicy arid palatable. Cows like it. It tones them up and for a time will actually stimulate milk production. But grass at its best is half water, and a cow has to eat an enourmous amount of pasture daily to get the feed she needs. Grass, therefore, .should be used more as a tonic than as a feed. All dairymen should use pasture but they should use it intelligently and should luse it . with grain. The practice, of turn ing out herds on pasture as soon as the grass comes up thinck and green is always a costly move, both in damage to pasture, and, to an even greater extent, in the falling off in production on the part of cows relying, on grass alone for their nourishment.” Actual tests by E.

Hanson, in charge of cow test association work in Minnesota, of the effects of pasture feeding aa compared to the use of grain, especially throughout the spring and early summer, showed that 1231 eowa receiving no grftin on pasture averaged 228 pounds of butterfat per year at a feed cost of $41.87. In contrast to this, 572 cows re ceiving grain while' on pasture averaged 296 pounds of butterfat per year, at a total feed coat of $49.35. That extra $7.48 spent for feed during the pasture seo- son resulted in an- additional 68 pounds of butterfat from, each COW) which, on the. basis of 40c a pound, was worth $27-,20, or ft ;j net.proflt of $19i72 abov^ th'e'iadr, . ded copt of ie§d, < - / .

The alternative, of course, is wise strategy, carefully executed by the President’s champions in Congress. Signs of this strategy came in the unprecedented action of' house leaders in reporting .8.QmB_farmJ.egi8latLQn_QU_tlie-i'c=_ cord. If this is not accomplished, a veto ia certain for the Haugen bill if it cornea to the White House in its present form, and it is doubtful if there are enough votes to paaa it over a presidential veto.

PLEASED The report of the State treas urer and auditor showing a cash balance in the general fund of the State of $3,217,386 as of diffeVe“nrprinciples "of approach 31 tri«mph for Gov.1. Ut - __ __I. •__ MnT.i.f»rij T.ftftr VAH?» tvnon rjlflto the farm problem. The purpose of the administra tion is to go to the country with some farm legislation. Tho sub ject permits of such wide debate and invplves such wide differences of opinion among farm groups themselves that the administra tion hopes some of the proposals will be lost in the shuffle and that the one which ia finally approved will enable the administration to proclaim to the agricultural world that it has done something ef fective to stabilize farm market ing. The least objectionable of all the bills ao far as President Cdol- idti'e is concerned ia what is known (IS the Aawell bill, introduced in the houae by Mr. Aswell, of Ala bama, democrat, and in the sen* ate by Charles Curtis, of Kansas, republican leader. It embodies whnt is known aa the yoakum plan and is designed to form itate marketing associations to cooperate witji a national farm board so that the gpvernment may work in close harmony with the co-operative marketing associa tions of which there are approxi mately >12,000.. This measure ^loesn’t put the government into the price-fixing business and In- volvea no appropriation of any consequence. The champions of the other measures do not have any serious objection to the' Curtis-Aawell bill except that they regard it aa not going far enough. The Tincher bill would provide fund of $100,000,000 to assist the existing ’ channels of credit and would helj^the co-operative associations over times of stress 'n case they decided to market '‘urpluses by holding the same for a better export price. The Hau- bill differs, very little from ‘he McNary-Haugen farm 'mea sure which has been before Con- .’fesii for the last two years. Its “TO is to stabilize marketing by 'I'oviding for the collection of an •lunlization fee from all produc- '•'Si which fee is to be vised to ™set any losses in exporting the "fplus. Tho theory ia that the wvernment will merely finance he turnover; This bill provides w a revolving fund of $375,000,- The equalization fee would ot be applied for two years, he governor would control the McLtan. Last year when the governor took office he pledged a balanced budget with income controlling expenditures if the legislature gave him the power .to make it effective. The legis lature gave him the power, but during the last three months of 1925 the treasury showed an in creasing deficit. Mr. McLean was not worried, however, and pre dicted the income collections would safely curry tho State past. There remain now but about three months of the present fiscal year and there ia a aurplus in the treasury of three and a quar ter milliona. If the rate of ex penditure of the paat aeveral montha ia not exceeded the State will have aufficient funda to end the fiacal year even, and possibly with a surplus. The governor is repoi'ted to be tremendously pleas ed with the showing, as he has a right to be, for it ia the suc cessful carrying out of hia "caah” basis for financing as opposed to the Morrisonian plan of “ac cural” financing.

Speaking of hospitality as a business proposition, to say nothing of the fine virtue itself, for it is a virtue, few qualities do, more to put a town, a community or a atate on a sure footing than find treatment to visitor from the outside, for invariably the visitor goes back homo a better friend. And that’s what puts a community on the map. When outsiders becoine interested and commence to boost, the boosting ia effective. Possibly the greatest asset an in dividual may have, are his friends. The same thing may b-ii said of a community or a state. North Carolina is now in the limelight as few other sections of the nation ape, and this is largely becauskii of the advertising which Its friends on the outside are giving It, and all free of charge. Coming down nearer home, Davie county could do few things which would help more than to make more friends among the lead era of the state. Thats’ one thing we ought to start out to secure, more friends. And the only way for us to make these new and valuable friends, is to invite them here and ent>?rtain them while here in such a. manner as to make them forever remembefr us as th^ most hospitable people on earth. This would cost us a little, but the cost would be returned four fold, and then in this hospitality we would all grow Into bigger and better men and women and would thereby cultivate that fine virtue which Is daily being more and more neglected in this age of industrialism and materialism., And we w’ould get pleasure out of the exercise of that virtue as is always the case with those who practice a noble virtue.
