'The state is not spending a groat sum on forestry, and in the meanwhile the reports show a large number of fires, with an at­ tending losS\each month. It Would not take more than one forest flro to burn up a hund- I'ed thousand dollars and one pre­ vented might pay the whole year’s bill. By the way, as we recall, the larger number of forest fires reported was caused by smokers, in other words, match-'slinger. Next camo campers who left their fires to take care of themselves, and abandoned fires usually burn their way out. The' match-sliriger is a costly personality in thia happy-go-^lucky land of small responsibilities and if we could be brought to think we would have fewer fore.s't fires and less taxes to pay.—Saliabury Post.

And how many of us, who su-e parents-, have repeated if to our own childreri as they, like we did, sat al­ most breathless as we-rèlated how thé fox crept into the, house of the little pii^; who ilve'd in thé .brick ^me. And yet how few of I us have evei grasped, the great truth which the moral 'conveys? As we want to drive homfe Jo thé'minds and Kearts of our readers an important truth we relate the ' little story as it was taught to Tus. Once upon li time there wei;e three llttlé pigs, one \yhite; one black and one red. While they were yet young tlielr'mótheí tísked: them what kind of a hoiise they, wanted. Whitle said, ‘T want a house of .straw.” So the mother built hlni'a'straw house, Blackle | said, “I want a house of Icavfs.-' '60 the mother built him a house of leaves. Reddle said, "I want ¿.house of brick," so ills niother built him a brick house. Arid^ thep' the mother-left each to work for him'self.. ' . i-'i "'i’. . ■ '■ . • ■Very soon after, the mother< had put' each little jplg into;hlg ,own new house, and on]a dark gloomy .n|ght, a fox came .tb tiie h^ of the little pigvwh» 1 1 lh the straw hou«e and a^ked 'the liMc; pig to let him in. “I cannot let In,”, Httie pigi .''Then I will hufI. and lMl puff anti TlV;;¿lc|W, yotiP hoiise dóWn,!’ said the fox. So he huffed and he puited and he blew down,the'st'ra and ate up poor Whitle. He thehi went to the home of thiei. little pig who lived in the hou'se of leaves and asked for admissiori. " I can not let you In," said the little- pig. “Then I’ll hiiff and I’ll pufl and I’ll blow your house down,” "said the fox, So ne ,huffed and he pufftd and he blew the leaf hoiise down and. ate up poor little Blackie. Still not satisfied, the mean oltVfoxi.irioveit on to where Reddic lived in his brick house. He called on the little pig to let him in. "l ean not let you Inj" said,,the llttle.red pig. . "Then I’ll ■huff .and ril liUff /and I’ll blow yóür hóüse^ down,'*'s^id.-the ',njea old fox. So he hiilTed and he puffed,'but he could'not blow down the brick house. , When he failed to blow down the little réd pig’s nice brick house, the old fox, tried another method, a sly, sneaking method. "Please, little pig, just open the dooi' enough for me to, poke my nose in,” pieaded the aly old íox. The little pig;cr«cked the door open just a bit and the'cíd.ífox poked his no.'ie iriV ‘.‘.Nowilét• me•poke one; of' my'ftoritpawii ^it','^•he•'pI,ettdcd, ariai’the.^littl¿fpi|f.4^^ him put one paw. in at his door. Then he asked to be. allowed .-to poke in his other paw and the little pig, healizlng 110 clanger, avowed him to poke in'hls other front foot. "Now let mo; got'my hind legs iri," sl>;ly pleaded the mean old fox. Poor Reddle thought-it. would be nil right to allow the fox to get hia. two hind legs in.-;^"Now I got me all in,” .said the fox, as' hé licked his lips in anticipation of the third pig he was.going to eat'up in a minute. Poor-Reddie thought his time hud come, but he hept his wita. Just then tho fox iieard a horp .blow and the barking of> dogs in tho 'distance frightened him. .‘‘What’ll I do! what’ll 1 do?” screamed the fox. ‘■I’ll let you crawl Into this chest,” said the little pigi The fox jumped into the chest and the little red pig shut the heavy door and locked it, Then ho put water on the; fire, and when it was boil­ ing hot he bored h.oles. through the lid of the chest and poured the hot water through and scalded the mean old fox to ceat'n.” The Sabbath desecra^or askerf admittance in th'e northern states and in many of the western states.

Pastoral Work .The people are anxious for the 'pastor to live among them, and it is our purpose to do.so as much as possible, but it i.s true'that pas­ toral work (or supply) and pas­ toral support must live uncler the same roof. If the pastor is to serve efflciantly, the people must pay regularly. - ' Our Program No interprise can hope to suc­ ceed without first having a pro- ■ gram and then working that pro­ gram.

The idea is to raise a fund for advertising Uaroiina jiist like the merchajjl; .'-'^-“rtises his business, or tbe manuiact’.irer'his products. It is a great big idea and siiouid,grasp the attention of all leading 'citizens of the, state. Just now is-a most opportune time for this state to get the ear of the outside world. The Flor­ ida boom has been smashed, and North Carolina is already com­ manding the attention of invest- er.s and prospective investors and home seekers, the country over. Just the other day we read in the papers of Where another , New England cotton' manufacturing company had decided to move its plant to the South, and it is gen­ erally knowti that many of the cotton manufacturers of; New England are considering moving South. Our new system of high­ ways has put the country to talk­ ing North Carolina, and our pro­ gress along all othdr lines has been to Olir credit. So considering ail these things, it is pretty safe to sny that a dol­ lar spent.advertising North Caro­ lina right now will possibly bring quicker and more profitable re­ sults than at any other time in cur history as a state.

Trtig MOCKSVILLE ENTERPBISE FARM FOREST IS CLUB WORK ADDS LABOR SAVING CROP) NEW FARM WEALTH ' , Raleigh, Dec. 8.—Reducing lab­ or costs increases profits in,any busines.s and most progressive business men are òonstantly on a search for labor-saving sys­ tems. Farmers do this by install­ ing labor-saving machinery but I there is still another way w.hich has been largely overlooked' and this lies in giving moi’o attention to labor-saving crops. "The farm forest is one of tho great labor-saving crop,‘j for l^orth Carolina farmers,” aavs R. W, Graeber, extonsioh forester. "This crop is within the .reach of every farmer without a great outlay of. money if he will only cooperate with Nature and follow the system which Nature so plain­ ly suggests.” ■' Mr. Graeber states that no spe­ cial soil preparation such as plow­ ing and harrowing, is needed for a crop oif pines, oaks or poplars. No seed is needed if a few seed trees are loft in place. No fer­ tilizer is needed becnuse nature maintains the fertility of the for- . est soil' through the annual fall of lo/ives nnd twigs. Ail that is ./necessary is to keep out destruc­ tive forest fires. When the fires are kept but, a heavy.blanket of leaf litter prevents, weed growth anel helps to hohi a good supply ■of moisture. It is in the harvest alone with a timber crop that the labor man is required. “Niiture has provided fine con- ■ditioiiS'for ti'oe growth ill North Carolina,’-’, says Mr, Graeber. ‘‘Good soil, ample rainfall and a long, growing season will permit ' aiiy farm woodlsuid to produce an annual growth of one-fiaif to one cord of wood per acroi while many acres of pines are producing two icords and more,an acre each year. Whore a farmer does not cut more than ihe aniiital growth of his . timber, a self-perpetiiating, labor- saving crop is made an actual ro- ' .iiiity;”. It' is not necessary tb spare the , ;ax'but it ia iVocessary to so , use, ■tho ax that the best tree speci- rmens have an opportunity t(^ con-, tribute thoir,sliare to an uiieivd- . ing,croi),■ stateli Mr. Groaber. ‘ « «• ■*ï .1 1 t t * DR.

' This'fact was demonstrated re­ cently when SOO of the club mem­ bers, boys and girls, gathered at the ilendersoiivillo High School for their annual rally and to mako reports of the results' of their labors for the past season. Tho meeting was an important ono and the club members took deep • interest in all the proceedings. After the meeting had been open­ ed with prayer by a local minist­ er, Professor Honeycutt of tho Hendersonville High School made a talk in which he stressed tho importance of club work. He was followed by Assistant County Agent E. D. Cody who reported on the activities of tho year. He stated that the 184 members who had completed their work made an average profit of $25 per member which was a total of $4,600 for the county. L. R. Harrill, clui)'.leader for State College also attiinded this meeting and gave a brief talk on the possibilities of club work and its meaning to Hender.son Oounty. A silver loving cup donated by S. S. Child was presented to the Ebenezer Club for having made the best record during the year. Because of the close contest be­ tween this club an'3 the one from Pleasant Grove, a aecond cup was awarded and dona/iedto the latter club by W, H, Hawkins of Hender­ sonville, Hillard Henderson was awarded a silver loving cup, do­ nated by the^ State Live.stock As­ sociations for being the best .fudge of livestock at the Western North Carolina Fair. According'to Mr. Harrill, this ralt,v was ■ one of the beat club mootings that has ’been hold in Noi’th Carolinii this yeai'.

McNEILL, Att.v. » at Lawi I Mocksville, N. C, * ' Ral'eigh, Dec. 2,—Without any competitor the First ■: National :bank' of New York,' which has àbòut half a billion of resources, today took ?10,ООО,ООО pf North Carolina highway' and school bonds, then shoved the other .$10,- 000,000 across the counter on a short term note, the transaction carrying an option on the second ten millions at 4.25 even as the first. . . .. Thus by waiting a day and de­ clining to accept the bids of Wed­ nesday, the state gained inearly ?275,000, and if the First Natio­ nal exercises its option 'half ,a year later, the'staté wilj have pro­ fited $708,B7£) according to' the statement -òf Go vèr noi’ McLean. The cleverness òf the executive’s trading breaks out over every dér vice for hiding it. In a Statement giving details he shows ho\Y the savings has been made. ,i., The state is now back to .bid time form. It would seem that the days of high money are ,over. Governor McLean by koepiiig •North Carolina bonds off ' the market has automatically increas­ ed the demand for them. The First National bank took thesd bonds from its own resources. It is representing no syndicate. 'It s'peaka for itself. Tho beauty of today’s work is thilt these .bofids will not be on the market, at all, so that the next issue floated by the state will'run into'none bar-, gained for toda.v. The ten millions offered today begins maturing in 1930 and run through ii)38. The next $10,000,-. ООО wil begin where tiie first left off. Tho state, lias rarely traded so well. It is, like .Richard, itself again, Chester B. Masslich, noted bond attorney of Now York, was present at tho salo today and no •member of the council of state had higher satisfaction than he. He. and Mrs, Masslich, and their delightful daugliter were here to­ day and after the big deal they set out for New York through the country. Nobody in North Caro­ lina sing? the songs of Zion in this strange land with more func­ tion than Mr. and Mrs. Masslch and Miss Masslich. And tho (truth of tiie business is that North 'Carolina folks are go.'ng after tho family in tho hope of persuading the members to move liere. Much 'of Mr. MassUch’s professional business goes out of North Carolina. After the sale Governor Mc­ Lean issued the following state­ ment: “We aro very much pleased that (the .Male of the 10'million bonds at the rate of a 4 1-4 per cent basis, brings about the result for .which Mr. Lacy anti I htyve been striving for nearly two years. We .started out in the early part of 1925 to handle the, bond sales in such a way as to substantially re­ duce the interest rate which North Caroliha hns been 'paying upon its long time bonds. These are the first long time bonds the state has sold at less than appro­ ximately 4‘i>percent and definitely places the long time bonds of the state of North Carolina on a 4 3-2 per cent basis for the first time since the large program of bond issues was launched five years ago. The difference betjveen the rate of 4 1-2 per cent''and 4 1-2 per cent on the 10 million bonds sold today amounts to $270,625, and, of course, thal amount in interest is saved for the tax pay­ ers by virtue of the fact that we have gotten the interest rate down from 4 1-2 per cent to 4 1-4 per cent, .'[f the First. National bank exercises the o'ption whicli holds good until April 1,1927, and takes the ot'aer 10 million at the 4 1-4 per cent rate,Svhich I have every reason to believe will be the case, the saving to the poopio of the .state ! on this, additional 10 mil­ lions .dollars' will' Ь,е $432,250, Or upon;the ontire 20^.million issued, the s;um of'^.703,875. , , / , “I am ve.ry muiïh'ipléasod, to'obr serve that, tlje bpn'il ;circ,ular pro- parei,i undor,; th è'd ireètión' of■.tlie bankers ih*^®'V York,'.upon which tiieso bôhd.4'iwerel,Ç'fferk urges,'''atpf)i)gy;^tl) qallirig, attentiob' J to. tlio desira-' bility from’iancinipstnie^ point, Noftii. .'

Per­ haps the moût iinpprtant measure enacted by the general assembly of 1926 was the act ps^blishing «in executive budget system. The administration of - this system is under the executive direction' of the governor, who supervises the financial affairs of the state in miich the same way that the head of a large business supervises the various departments. The gov­ ernor thus becomes, in effect, a director of economy and efRciency, As a part of the executive budget system the general assembly de­ clares it to be the fixed policy of the,state to maintain at all times a; balanced budget, to the end that expenditures shall never exceed available income. All statutes allowing general and unlimited appropriations were repealed by the budget act and every depart­ ment,’ institution and agency of the state was placed upon a defl- i^itë appropriation baslsi .^As 'di­ rector of the budget the gbyernor. given power to reduce Sll ap* pi’Opriations pro rata when deem­ ed, by him necessary in order to bring the total appropHations for all purposes within the limits of the revenue actlially available within the same fiscal period. The spirit of this advanced, legisla­ tion has been carried out since the, pàssage of the act, and the results are' highly satisfactory.” j HAVE YOlTPAID THE PREACHER? By Upton G. Wilson First thing a man enquires about; when he considers moving from one community to another, are churches arid'schooia. If the community he has in mind'as a possible place of future residence ■has good, churches and schools, more thaii likely he’ll decide to go there. But if there aré no churches and the schools are poor he’ll look elsewhere for a place to live, ^ , ' . , . , For no one moves except to bet­ tor himself, and tho .community without church.es and will only poor schools has little to oifer the new comer. Some persons, may now liv’e in ' communities ivhere thero aré no churches but if.they; were to move, tiie chances are they wouldn’t pick ;a ¿hurchless commun'ty to go to. If they wore sati.Mfied to live where'there are no churches they’d stay right where they are. Schoola, oi' course, are support­ ed by taxation nnd run for six months except where tho poopio aro more liboral and’ I'.vogroasive than the. State as a whole, in which event ti^ey hnve seven, eight or, nine months of .school, depending on the degree oi'(thei,v 'progressiveness. ■ The ordinary rural community, as is well known has ' but '.six montiia of school, ■Such communities, ns a rulé, have preriching only once ¿ month, ■rhey are baok\Vard in both edu'- cation and religion. Living .con­ ditions in these communities are not as ntti'nctivo as in tliose com­ munities wliere there are eight months schools and church ser­ vices each week. But living conditions aro ' a great deal better, in communities having si.x months schools , and church services once each month than they w'ouid be in communiti­ es having no schools or church services at all. If it were not for a few persons, however, who talce it upon themselves to support a preacher there would be no church survices in niimerous com­ munities once a year .even. The burden of providing church aei’- yice.s in rural communities is borne by comparatively few per­ sons; 'Yet the benefits a church and church services, bring to a community are shared by all alike. The burden of supporting the church should consequently be more widely distributed. , Every resident of a community in .which a church is located shotild, con­ sider it a privilege to be permit­ ted to, help support it, whether or of ieyery, kind to each man 5Ö5; l^i.50 All newest designs sòc io $2.0 ' Kf 7T(?il> iioITi ,v fc, 'Siir6 .,w«tafe‘.well prepared Щ 1 "î J...- Fancy end (plain colore • 3 5 c t o $ 1 . 0 0 other gifts hé will like: Mufflers, Gloves^............................... . ■ ,...... ...

From these sta­ tistics we have compiled.by siat- ts the total ntimber of miles of surfaced rpa^s, and have worked out for each state the, ipercent that such surfaced roads consti­ tuted of the toti.J highway mile­ age in eacti state, as shown in the table given elsewhere, in this is- sue. There were’in the United States at the end of 1925 a total of 621,- 91'4.0 nilcii oi' surfaced roads, which represeuited 17.4 percent country. ■ >1'.In the'table below the states are ranked according to the total surfaced mileage of roads. This necessarily varies greatly because of the varying size of the states, but It is, nevertheless, a better IhrSis for ranking purposes than the percent surfaced would be; because a .^mall percentage sur­ faced of a large number of miles represents generally a bigger ach­ ievement than a large, percentage of a small number of miles. It is noticeable, however, that many of the states with a very large total mileage of roads haye at good-will that thej;' áre able .to show very creditable percentage of their roads surfaced. Such states are Indiana, Ohio, Wiscon­ sin, New York, Minnesota, Michi­ gan, North Carolina, Pennsylva­ nia, Georgia, California, Ken- tucicy, Washington, Alabama, Ten­ nessee, Oregon, and Miaaissippi. At the end of 1925,lndiana held a place of supremacy with a large j • « ------1-. 1...^ ' which' had at; that timé around one-third of their roads 'surfac^ ed are Wisconsin, New York, Washington, Idaho, Florida, Maryland, Vermont, arid Rhode Is­ land.

Very nearly half I of the states (23) at the end of last year hada place of supremacy with a large i r ,total mileage of roads nearly two- moi'e than a fifth of their, roads thirds of which (65.9 percent) , surfaced. ^ were surfaced.

Granted that she produc­ es, an even 150 pounds. This at 4-1 cent's per pound, which was thi! average price paid, by crenm- erie.s ivi the State last year, 'would , return .$66,00. The skim: milk would be w.orth .?8.00 ' arid the manuive around $15.00, making a , total return of $89 from the 90W ''for the year.” ■ y Hr. Kimrey states'that it will ,/ cost $89 to feed the cow and the ,,time snd laboi; of the owner, will .be, charged'.ofF to experience. .'Sue.li cows, hpwijver, are respon­ sible; for the low-net returns so often rpferre^ to by dairymen who fail to miike, ii profit in spite of good foed\arid carp. On the other hand a cow which will re­ turn 300 pounds' of butterfat a year will I)ring a cash return of ‘$132. A,dded to this is a credit of ?20 for the skinimilk and $20 for the mitpure which will bring 'the total return up to.$172 as com- P(ired with $89 from the average • ;Nowi states „Mr.., Kimrey, the remedy; for this;; is to use a gopd ' ■ bull in the/iierdi' .

Nine representative members of ;Briti8h itrades unions have gone back to England after a tour of the United States to discover what they termed the “secret of high wages in America.” The soluti.on they carried back was “produc­ tivity.” “ If we had America’s elfectric power and some of its best ma chinery ^e could hold our own with'the best in the world,” said one member of the commission. "The secret of high wages," said another member, “is purely a question of the development of electrical engineering, the orga nization of industrial plants, and putting the right men in the right 'place.” Th.e commission carried back home a conviction that electricity and machinery driven by cheap and aburiilant power is tha secret ^of . our industrial supremacy ‘They also carried, back a new idea of what this development means to'the wjorker himself. Hardwood floors, a tiled bath and a telephone are luxuries unknown in the homek of mo.st English workmen.

' President Codlldge’s plan of re­ bating to taxpayers Л treasury surplus of over ?350,ООО,ООО, as well as the'Democratic plan of a I slash on taxes all down the lin6, were swept into the discard.' The committee by a strictly ' party vpte decided agaihst acting upon any tax reduction projects. If, was a swift show-down. ' First came the motion of Rep. 11 t¿c«i òòvernment To Be À Thing Óf i|)ehiôcrat8 to Force Tax T h e f á s t ?

The commit^e then adopted a motion by Représentative Haw­ ley, (R) of Oregon to table all tax reduction bills, including .President Ooolidge’s recommen­ dation for a rebate on taxes pay­ able next March «nd June. Much Motw ImpdtiMit Ry ' Monéy Than AaWHcaiùi Oxford, England, Dec-. 10,—“Of all lies, the worst lie is that the Amcrlcsn worships money,” Gilb­ ert K. Chésterton the, English eg. saylst nnd critic, believés, “An American, he told the Ame­ rican club at Oxford, “never talks J i. • ii.

Possibly thnt is a bit strong to piit it,' but' it certainly ‘was à contributing force towards his election, and'dai-jng his <itl- miriistnition Morrison was jealous of the rights of the poople. But eveft in spité of his vigilance and the vigilance of, other |ende;rs, the fact remains that year by year our gqvernmcrtt. Is, becoming more and more paternalistic. The avernge voter has lost practically aJl vdice in matters relating tó eductvtion. Local aiithorifiès hàvà. very little to'do except to levy taxes to meet the ever, increasiiig demands by this Noi"th Carolina'centralized school systeniY-The same isi in à measure true with regard to roads. Modei-n conditions and, ten­ dencies in this state prove the oyerlasting^tru'th of the statement that, “Eternal Vigilance is the price of Llbèrty.” We knov/ that this Is not going to meet^the; àpproval of some, but we are flrmly convinced that unless the ayer^ige voter asserts himself it is only going to be a matter of a few more yeiirs when Olir county government shall be centralized and practically all au­ thority, «ven as to local matters, will be directed from Raléigh, It is migli'ty nearly that right now. > We make bold the chérge that entirely too much power is being, taken out of the hands of the local county governments and bei^' vented in the Govfirnor and the heads of the various state depart­ ments, and the average citizen and tax payer will agree with us. And when and where is it to stop? Shall we allow all power and authority to be taken from our boards of county commissioners and school boards and vested in governor ahd the'"departmerit of educa­ tion at Raleigh? „ ...g Reduction ^ t This Ses FACTS SHOW VAST GAINS IN WEALtH FROM CROPS Afir'cultural^Crop^ of Southern Stiiteii M«an Greater: Wealth ; This Year Than Last s e s M t e e - i » , и N ^ »|.,да IK was tion. i'i"; Represeiitativc John Q.

In speaking of tho power vested in the hands of the governor. Judge Pittman said: “Such power as If , attempted to be^ exercised by the English King would likely work a revolution and vacate his throne. “Such power in the hands of a less able and patriotic man than our present GovenloV would be a grave menace to the liberties and welfare of our people.” Paying his re.spects to the State Buitijet Systern the Judge said : “A more far-reaching aiid compreheniiive act cannot’ be easi|y., imagined. His power (th(> Governor’s) over all the aKonoies and institutions of the State is unl.'niitbd. Its exercise ia absolute and, without review.’’ ' .. • Judge Pittman is further quoted as 'having siiid, on the questioiv of centralization, that: . ■• • ^ I "The trend is away from democracy.; Not even the elections of un;ty of .spirit that the n^wspap- the people are free. ■ The State Ronrd of Elections controls, Elec- ers and politicians on both .sides tions under the control of,local board.s are the only tliiu(?n that of the water often refer to, he i fj.nud ^ill not vitiate. It is the .same with schools. Centralization employs in referring niattors.” • • Though famed ns a humorist, Mr. Chestei-ton spoke to the Ame­ ricans for th^ moat part, in aeri- ous vein.

The Winston-Salem Journal protested on the grounds that it Was too Prussian', tha^t it would tend to cultivate the wrong'spirit in the boys of the high school. Inlimntion was made that the aims manufacturers were behind the movement. Investigation by Jonathan Daniels, the J'curnnl’s Washington CQvresponclent, disclosed the fa^t that the Winston-Salem: paper was correct in its conclusion. Upon receipt of thé information from Washington, the Journnl carried the following editorial on its front page, which should be read and remembered by all readers of this paper, for it goes to show another way in which propagandiata are attempting to get their damnable stuflf over through our public schools: ^ “Investigation by Jonathan Daniels, The Journal's Washington correspondent, shows conclusively that the movement to establish rifle target shooting “clubs” in th.e Winston-Salem High School and othei; public schools of America was originated by the big arms and amunitions manufacturers of this countryi “Their object is to create a demand for guns.

To Children, Christmas is a time of happiness and joy! Their carefree, irresponsible natures are allowed to run rampant. But they should not be allowed to grow up with the belief that father will always play Santa Claus and that he will always provide—or others will provide the necessities and luxuries of life. Sooner or later they must play Santa Claus to them­ selves and their families. Gifts that they receive will be purchased with money from their own pocketbooks» at the expense of their own labor.

The agents discussed problems peculiar to their own work dur­ ing the moruii\g hours and then went to cla'.oses as students for the remainder of the day. How to meet the present cotton situation was one Of the serious questions before the agents and it was agreed that the campaign f()r better balanced farming would meet the situation by reducing the pre.sent cotton acreage some 30 porcent. The men felt that farmers would be. loathe to sign blanks obligating themselves to reduce the acreage 25 percent but Stated that many of the fai'mers ' to whom they, had tendered the pla'n of crop diversification had seemed pleased with tho idea, It was agreed that an intensive cam­ paign for better balancing the crops and livestock of the- State would bo put on immediately fol­ lowing the holidays. . The valuo of club work, pro­ motion of' th(j poultry indiistry, cro)) statistic-s, the value of de- mon.strations, and the mai'keting of sin'¡)lus produce wei’o f|ve oth­ er important matters to which the agents gave attention, According to Dean I. 0.

N. C. -Where Th» Styles Hit Mocksvilie First— Raleigh, Dec. 9.—Gold produc­ tion in North Carolina during 1925 jumped more than four -hundred per cent oyer that of the previous year with an output in 1925 of $18,540 compared with $4,540 in 1924, a report made to­ day by State Geologist R. J. Bry- son to Wade H. Phillips, director df the Department of Conserva­ tion and ¿»evelopment, reveals,. ' The report of the geologisit shows that North Carblina pro­ duced nearly half of the gold out­ put of the eastern states in 1925 and almost twice as much as any other. Georgia came second with .$9,683; Tennessee, $7,421; Pennr syivania, $4,900; and Virginia, .$68.' The gold from Pennsylvania and Tennessee came from the re­ fining of copper bullion and was slightly greater than in 1924. Only a few fnines were active a in North Carolina during 1925, ■. but the great increase was due to ■ j work at Rich Cog Mine at EUlora- I do, Montgomery cóunty. Ore is 1 treated by amalgamation, while the concentrates are saved for treatment by cyanidatiOn. Anoth­ er mine at Gold Hill,in tho same county waa operated during the year. Other counties furnishing smaller amounts of gold are Mc­ Dowell and Rowan. I “ w hen to WORK ' jj Baltimore Sun. ^ If you are poor—work, jl If you aro rich—continue to 1 work.'

J A,.special election will be he|d in thp Town of Mocksyille, North Carolina in the Court House, the MHual polling place in the Town of ¿Mocksville, on the 1st day of Feb- iruary, 1927, ior voting on the Bladenboro, Dec. 16.—A definite .rotation of crops is building up •the soil fertility on the farm of G. E. Callahan Of Bladen County and is giving him more profitable yields per acre. Mr. Callahan began his rota­ tion in 1923 and has continued It since. Though the weather for the past three years in this sec­ tion has been either too dry or too .wet for best results, the farm has produced a pi’oflt in spite of these dilllculties. Two rotations are used,..one for the feed crops tind the other for-the cash crops. ■The feed crop rotation is practic­ ed on three' fielda,of seven acres, «ach' and consists; of- corn and. velvet beans one year, followed by corn ;and .‘joybeaiis after which ‘fall planted ■ oats and vctch is 'used. The third year, ,oats aro planted for hay followed by Boy- be.ans and lespedtjza for hay and rye as a cover crop. Mr. Callahan secures an aver­ age yield of 80 bushels of corn 'pev acre. He makes about 3000 ' pounds of soybean hay per acre and the lespedeza has given him a yield of 2,250 pounds - of hay per acre each year for the past two years. This feed he has used with two mules; a herd of short­ horn cattle, three pure bred sovvs ried on strictly with reference to- soil, types. At first, the larger and more Important soil types were selected for the location of branch expbrimenl stationà and outlying fields.' As more funds became available, this research was extended to the less extended areas iintll now the College has a vast fund of information about the solls.^’ , • • The eight definite values of the soil survey are given by Prof. Williams as follows: It provides all ' agricultural \yorkers and farmers with reliable information about the kinds of soil In a given area and gives in­ formation about the general agri­ cultural conditions in this area. It provides an opportunity to apply results on farms: which are on the same soil types.

Regardless of the'fact that a poor quality of beef animals may be produced and sold at the less discriminating markets, the fact remains that the price paid for beef cattle is set by tho large central markets and these markets determine the kind of animals w'hich sell best.

As the year closes, and; during the holiday season when many of us let up for a few days from the rush and biistie of business, we should take adyantage of the oppbrtUnlty to thiflk a bit. We should cast, a glance oVer bur lives during the yenr just closing, and see what errors we have made that we may avoid during the coming year. We should examine the trend of bur lives, morally and religiously during the old year 1926. If we have formed good habits, if we have done good deeds, if we have thought elevating and uplifting thoughts, if we have spoken nicè things about our friends and neighbors, then we should plan to keep up the good work during the coming year. . On the other hand,, if we have been drifting, if we have made bad moves, if we have started forming bad habits, if we have thoUght in a way to demoralize and undermine our characters, if , we haye said mean things about our friends, if we have erred in any way, and there are none of us who have not, then.let us put these behind, and purpose in our hearts that we are going to do better. Let us not be satisfled to take stock of our business, but let us take stock of our private lives to the end that we may improve ourselves during the year 1927.

This Is one sentence from a sim­ ple anti affecting memorial a«i- ■ dressed to the people and Legis­ lature of Kentucky by the fam­ ous pioneer, Daniel Boone. At the. age Of 60 he had .ioined the se­ cond tide of immigrtition that was . pourinii into another newly open­ ed country, hoping at last to satisfy that land hunger .which had' led the men of his time ever westward, and he “had met fresh ¡disappointment..' • Losing throuifh defective titles the many acres of land he had located there, he appealed to Ken- eucky, in .whose forests he had Avintered when hundreds of miles from civilizhtipn, with no com- Ipanions but ,Jii3 guns and his dog; to w'hose hunting grounds he had guided many parties of punters, suïvèyôrs; and settlers; into whose wilds he had cut the first ‘‘wilderness road”;'' within whose borders he had' bUllt thé flist fort of thè more than a hiind- ’rcd-’"stations” -that sheltered the • early inhabitants frbm the In­ dians; and where hie had twice ‘.‘located” many acres . which he had lost th rougll poor trades pr unsettled titles. Judge how touching was such a reminder from }a man who in :s;the' primo of' hia ■ life hail helped ' to carve more than a.mijlion acres .' from the wilderness '¿nd to make secure its virgin iSoi|-for settle- • ment, addressing, tdo^, thè genera­ tion that occupicdjtliat jaiid as a ■Soveroign State'in peàce^ and ' plenty. Kentucky heeded his cry . for aid and forwarded it to Con­ gress, which readily, granted him more acres.' It,’-is pitiful to ire- late that the gùileleàa old man lost this iijM Jn lawauiits, and at the age of 86 was buried at .' last in the alien soil of another ; ■. Stateniv.'i.'.' .“‘''i’’' , ' \.

'And so at Christmas time the partical-and the ideal meat': what is, for the day, reaches up and joins hands with What Ought To Be. Talk that is dubbed ajry idealism during other seasons Is.the guiding plan of action when Christmas comes around. On that day men think of others as-well as themselves, 5'they feast their bodies, but also their hearts. Thoughts concern Juicy brown drum-sticks and heaped white moun'tains of mashed potatoes, but they also concern the welfare of the unfortunate and tile relieving of want. One ^deals with the so-called "partical” parti of life, the other with the "ideaii” ' They lW)th haye part,on ,Christ­ mas. Day. No.other, season comes nearer humanity.

There is ,npthihg of the mystic, ritual i which' is comprehended by only a few initiated. >It is for i'iall, understood,by all. , ' It comes down to earth and deals with practical things, . translating kindly impulses into kindly acts. " It, touches life as we live it and for one day lifts the • world'ineaTer what it should be. Like the parables of the Master, Christmas infuses idealism into the thoughts and acts of our everyday existence. * Those who look only at the sky, fail to see the earth, and thbse who' gaze only at the' ea^th do not see the sky. ‘Only those who look at the horizon line appreciate them both and see them joined together. During.most of the year, in many minds the idealism of the Cfoiden Rule and similar teachings and the practical ! «cb.'ons of everyday life seem to stand far apart. It is at the horizon line of the Christmas season that they are universally «één to draw together.
