The new starter is even more DEPENDABLE than the old, and far simpler and more compact in construction.

FORMER PRIVATE GAVE "ORDERS” TO PERISHING Happy New Yeài* Lincoln, Neb., Jan-. 3.—General John J. Pershing has taken "ord­ ers” from a former private. -The story has just been told here. While hunting at Red Deer ranch. Cherry county, Neb., this fall, as the guest of Mark W. and George J. JVoods, Lincoln capital­ ists, “Black Jack” Pershing saw a flock of ducks on some land nearby. The owner of the land protested against the party's trespassing. “I want those ducks for myself and ¡there’s not .many o’ them,’’ the .ol'd'plainsnj^h assei'ted. "Weil, we just wanted to shoot a couple,” said Mark Woods. “This is General Pershing with us and he wants to try his aim.

FOR q u a lit y BUTTER ц PROGRESSIVE mil Raleigh,; Jan' 'l.^Tw o things hampering profits to creameries and cream patrons in North Caro- lln^i are the low grade of butter- fat sent to. the creameries and the small amount per patron. “These two things prevent the creameries from paying about five cents per pound more than they do pay for butterfat," says W. L. Clevenger, spe.çialist in dairy manufacturing at State College* “There are a . large number of patrons who sell-- less than 200, pounds,of butterfat annually. • It costs just as mucli to collect, weigh, test and otherwise handle a small quantity of cream as it does to handle a larger amoiiht. is a general rule that the, smaller the amount of cream pro- duced on a farm each d^y, the poorer the quçility, because'of the longer period between deliveries and' the less care and attention given the cream while it is on the farm.” - Those creameries which are now making the best grade of butter, ’ manufacturing it at the lowest cost per pound and sell­ ing the product for the highest market price, are the ones which get an average of 1,000 pounds of fat per farm, states Mr. Cle­ venger. This means that the pro­ duct from flve cows, each pro­ ducing as much as 200 pounds of fat per year, is being sold. Under such conditions, the creameries can operate, most pro­ fitably and the patrons ajso get a profit from their dairying. The average return is about five^to ten dollars per cow per month. Mr. Clevenger states that the creameries of North Carolina are producing an excellent product, but it could be made s^till better. There are some farmers who are making money by shipping cream but -ipore are needed. There p e , too many farmars supplying,' cream wh(? keep only one or two foWs. If the lyjprofitable cows were weeded but and thé whole ,tter put on a businèss basis; am production would soon be- e a source of .real wealth in State. ■ШЯПВЛИВПк . : SERVICE MCiCKSYILLE, N.

' - Mr. Marshall devoted a conside­ rable part of his time for several lonths to work incident to the organization of the Cotton-Tex- kile Institute and has been fami­ liar with its purpose and, possibi­ lities from the first. North Caro­ lina ; manufacturers have joined heartily in this movement, it is paid. . • • Mr. Marshall, in his statement, (comments rather significantly al­ so on :the report of the taxation Committee of his Association, sub- nitted by Chairman Bernard M. Doiíé at the recent meeting of the Asspciation at Pinehurst. The statement of Mr. Marshal follows: The situation in the textile in- iuBtry in North Carolina during |h6 pttst twelve months has been, yerjr siinilaT to that which existed aurlrig all of 1926 and practically in ' o f; 1924 :;VThji'<(ttpreBalqn, in |he industry has continued and during the greater part of the year there has been considerable Curtailment in operation, this be- P^ng especially true of the yarn mills. The position of our 'mills, and the same is very largely true of the Industry as a whole, has been strengthened by the decis­ ion reached by a vast.miijority of iniill oxecutlvca more than u yetiv stihdinir achievement in the cot- tciri- industry,4t»rin»-t.he past year^ th{|^. fr6mjthe>at.a^^^ the manufacturers' and the" pro­ ducers Vof;cpttori^-'-'..'-,V^ 'X, In Npij^h'parblina,'aside from the organizafiori of thet’iCotfon^ Textile Institute which is being heartily supported ami backed 'by the cotton manufacturers of North Carolina, nothing has created so much interest,as the„ recent report of the committee on taxation of the North Carolina Cotton Manufacturers Association "at its meeting'ht Pinehurst;some -weeks ago' This report has at­ tracted wide-spread attention and ■the demands upon President J. M. Gamewell and this office for copies have been so great that we were compelled to have the report printed in order to supply' the de­ mand. , ' Briefly the report of the taxa­ tion committee; s^ubmitted by Chairman Bernard M. Cone of CVeensboro, emphasized the fact that the burden of taxation upon textile industries of North Caro­ lina has been steadily increasing duHng 'the past few years and that the pointy has been reached where the industry is acutely suffering as. a result. The trouble began'with the re­ valuation of 1920, when, on an average,' the assessment on cotton mill properities was just aboUt qtiardrupled, while the asseas- meht On ail'other classes of pro~ perty' was merely doubled."

IThere is nothing upon the; Ibiisiness horizon to indicate bet- Iter times for the mills during the' lyear 1927., Our manufacturera {have been very hopeful, but it iinust be acknowledged that there Îîà little in sight upon which to oase any actual expectations of better times. It is true, as it has been for a year or more, that there is no accumulation of goods in the'channels of trade. From the retailers on bi»ck to the manii- facturers the trade has been pur- Isueing a hand-to-mouth policy of [buying. This of course is a hope- Iful indication. - , ; ] The greatest hope of the tex- kiie ' induatry, however, both for [relief from the present long con- jtinued depreasion arid for the Ipermaneht stabilization of the in- auatrÿi in the opinion of'a large number of leadera in the industry of our state, lies In what may be flone 'by'and through thè Cottoh- rextile: Institute,, the, organization lof wlhich was'brought aboiit thr- }óugh the eairrieat efforts of the Ibpst brains in, the textile industry tnorth and south during the year fthat is passing.

Miss Panlhyvi 'Laiiier .spent; reason probably there was no vigorous' protest. The condition of tbe cotton mills has steadily grown worse,' however, since'that time, wiiile the taxes, particular­ ly local taxes of county and town, have steadily increased. It was stated in the report that many cotton mil^s in the State are to­ day pajiing in local taxes, 'not of their ncvt incomc. In; other wpi'ds, the communities in which .these mills are operated are get- i ting niore^ from the mills than the' stockholder's ,are. ; ■ , ' ' ‘Usji'ig his'own cdVporatlpn-^as a bSample,’ Chili ____ _____ out that out of ovevy ?1000 of j Thursday night with Miss Iva'' gross sales in 1920 $2,65 went to Stewart. pay local taxes, while in 1925 out of eyery $1000 of gross sales $9.24 went to phy local; taxes, .^nd .it is estimated that in 1926 the ratio would be inore than $10 for every $1000 pf sales, The exporience of Mr, Cone’s comnan,v is the experience of many others. For Instance, the tax per' flOOO of gross sales of the largest cotton mill corpora­ tion in ,Mecklenburg county was $0,86 in 191?)i;|9,18 in 1920; and f 16,16 In 1926. . The .report of the taxation com­ mittee "and the diacuaaion which haa fojf](6)ved it have made it ap­ parent; that the manufactuVera of the State aa a whole not only be­ lieve ih attlielr owii . industry is sufferirig frorii tax discrimination agajnst cprporationa- but that th^ inteVeats of the State are not be­ ing iconserved, because’ North Carolina is m anifestly’faillrig to secure industries .tjjjat are mpving into the South from other sec­ tions, Other Southern statp have waked up and are making'attrac- tive appeals to these, industries and are getting them. Obviously it is alao true that a altuation which prevents induatries from coming into our State will also prevent the expansion of the in­ dustries that we (already have. The riiembers of the Association therefore feel that Chairman Cone and his Committee have not only rendered their induatry a aervice but have rendelred the state a service in, putting before the, peb- lyze the whole cotton industry and piè of the statè a situation -ivhlch its related industries exhaustive^ jg putting the brakes on industrial 11y; seek to discover ■ enlarged and Inew uses for cotton products of pnribua kinds, and assist and pro- [m'ote t'he interests of the industry I in ways too numerous to menilbn. [ it is is the 'opinion and hope of [tlie cotton manufacturers that [the activities of the institute vvill liio t ònÌy’be of benefit tp the cot- I ton manufacturers themselves but I thaf it will also, through the prò-,' |Ttiòtion of the uses of pottpn, very l^reatly benefit thé Southern cot- I ton ■ producer.

W. B. Greeley, chief of the Forest Sor- vice, United States Department of : Agriculture. Of this total, Na­ tional Forests in North Ciirolina supplied 15,243,000 feet. However, /national forest logging operations supply the logs for less than two per cent of -the sawed' lumber production in the United States. While the cut of timber on Gov­ ernment, holdings , is increasing annually CoÌónél Greeley made it plain that it is neither tin indica- tion nor a: product of commercia*- lized administrative policy- He 1, mnintaihcd that the forests were not being imanaged primarily' to « p u t aa;| much mòney as possible into therpubllc treasury, , ' , "National forests are by law oa- : tnblished to improve and protect , the forest, or for the purpose of eecurlng favorable conditions of water flown, arid to furnish a con­ tinuous supply -of ' timber for the use and' necessity»f the citizens ' of the/lUriited States," he declar­ es. “Tho increasing' volume of timber solos, on the national for­ ests is largely due to the fact îiithi^t 'local exhaustion of private timber ; has _ 'compelled existing estrtblishments and industries in manyiiiristnnces to turn to thè ’ national forests 'for continuous Buppiies.

'.Ill gtfvórning the aale- niilling capacity to balance the growth of timber is inevitable. In-a few cases ;tlie estiiblishment of new mills on a permanent basis is desirable as fast as there is a sound economic basis for their developmept and in these regions sals are encouraged, under rea- son?ble tfrnis. This benefits the communities through pay rools, better tran.sportation, increased taxable resources, and returns to the counties of 25 per. cent of the receipts. ¡. ' The fact that the growth of the national forest timber busi­ ness has, in some instances, been held to menace tho orderly utilU zation of the country’s timber sup­ ply, is declared by the chief for­ ester to be the result of a wrong understanding of the Nation's policy of forestry. "A commercialistle policy hav­ ing in view primarily the balance sheet is impossible,” he Stated. ‘■Oh the other ^ n d , financial consideration can not be ignored. The burden which the forests impose on the taxpayer should be made no heavier than is neces­ sary to fulfill their purposes; they should become self-support­ ing when this can consistently be brought about; they should be developed In response : to public needs; and those who use their products for comifiercial gain should pay the public a fair mar­ ket value for what they tqke from the forests.” ' \ SPEEDWAY FILES IN BANKRUPTCY ¡i t Ó JÍ .

Miss Liicy Adams, of New York, health education secretary of the national Y. W. C. A., and one in a position to know, is the source of this 'heresay. Miss Adams, who left for New York last night .shortly after evincing her opinions, blames the preference of the southern girl for -the compact over the protein for the limbo into which her far- famed beauty has been relegated.

Indèed; the Gover- or says that “education is our lost pressing need” and declares hat -the moat pressing' “necessity if our public school system is to qualize the opportunities of el- mentary and High School educa-' ion for the children of our rural listricts, as far -as we are able в do SO." Equally sound is his ictiim that "the foundation stone f our educational system is the ublic school.. Upon it rests the uperstructure of higher educa- ori. :,Without the rudiments of clucation, one can.never become real student. View it as you lay, that is an Undisputed fact, lerice, expansion upward depends li’gely, if not wholly, upon the undation." Governor McLean is emphatic his insistence on the primacy education as a legislative con- irn. “The task we mus't keep instantly in view is to provide leans that will afford every boy d girl in North Carolina, even 1030 in the remotest rural sec- lon.s, an equal opportunity for grammar and'High School cdu- ition at public expense,” ho en- lys the State’s lawmakers! If tiy warrant were needed for plac- |ig education first on tho program If the 1927 General Asi^embly, is giviin ample -expression by le. Governor when he says : orth Carplina!s recent progress |as been more largely the result ‘ education in its broadest sense lan of any other cauàà.”' Sentiment in North Carolina is ith the Governor. It is for the legislature to devise, the means r reaizing as far as possible imocracy in education. Governor McLean is equally iphatic in his stand for -the intinuation of the 'highway lilding program. Ho rocom- iends Issues of bonds totalling ¡0,000,000 for the next two years, iminding the Legislature that lis sum will be augmented by !deral aid and by surplus hi'ghi ly revenues. This recommen- ition id safe and sane, in view the heavy demands for State inds which other enterprises pir make and which should be itisfied in large measure. It is generally recognized that |erner measures should be taken safeguard life and property on le highways, and Governor Mc- 5an will be accorded general ap- ■oval for his -recommendation |at'“licenses to driver's of motor ihicles be issued*,only after a |i!eful examination as -to charac- I’, habits, experienic.e and general Iness,: of the; applicant.’’ Other ates marvel that North.

State taxes,: other, than it they, ;“.derived ,entirely from irect sources', when -taken,, in- Government, which disclosed the poorest sort of business methods in many countie.s. The attitude of the Governor on .judicial reform will be approved generally. He finds -the emerg­ ency judge plan quite unsatisfac tuiy, and urges the Legislature to provide more efflcienj; judicial machinery. He suggests a Con stitutional amendment - to over haul the system In the' interest of justice to the citizens of the State. - The low price of cotton ■ has been and is a severe blow to this State, as well as other Souther . States. It has produced a critical situation in agriculture. Natur ally, the people affected look to the executive and legislative do partments of the State, and Natio nal Government for relief, Gover .nor McLean: reiterates his views He insists that the lack.of diver siflcation in crops is the funda­ mental cause of.' distress, and ad vises a greater, viiriety of farm products. ' To win,.the farmers to this is a task for educational agencies,, and tho Governor ex pects much of the rural schools in this; direction. , The people of the State have watched with interest the develop ment of' North Carolina’s sea food, which the Governor describ es as one of tho State’s most val­ uable assets. The Govern6r re­ views the success that the Fish­ eries Board has attained in aiding this industry. Recommendations that fish and game be protected will bo hailed with delight by hunters and fishermen who live in thc'State, as well as those who come as visitors. "Wo niust continue our fight for fair, just and equitable freight rates for our people and to pro- vnnt discrimination against them” says Governor McLean, in review­ ing successful ofTorts of the Cor" poration Cqmmifiliilon eo obtain fairer rates. Tho faith of many citizens of the State in the pos- .sibilities of water development is given added strength by the op timistic views of the Governor on this project. Governor McLoan’s message is n document containing much in­ formation about the State. There is little in it to provoke division of opinion among legislators. Fori tunately the general public is in entire harmony with the general tenor of tho Governor’s recom­ mendations.' They are construc­ tive in character and require lit­ tle preliminary tearing down of existing structures. In view of ithe impending budget messagie, it is inopportune now to venture ah opinion as to how far the Le­ gislature should go to carry out some suggestions made'in the first message.—Winston-Salem Journal FUNDS FOR HIGHWAYS IN STATE ALLOTTED Pendehtly ; açe; not■ abnormally: jfh, especially:wH'en‘we,,take in;. |cpnsideration:the manifold s.er-. les rendered ' by the; ,Sta je -to, ? : PeppMi’’,;; ,Hij;. doès, i howeve-r^ iTimit,, tp JtM : Legislature . !t.he |Ch v-i^op . difllcu problem, ; of |al tax^.^^|^somé< counties, ;he ifàrm lands are' ;p*^péi*riipï) ;to earning pacity of'thôp'èïlàhds^'^ b tax ' Qf Ç?,'4p'pèrK spindle paid r cotton; m illa'.in: 6ne. county pile in anothe'r it1s'but56 cehtsj •ch .of the difficulty -thei Goyer- Ir; attributes : to 'poor business: Jnagement tin many -qpunties I ■towns, apd recommends a hmlaajon^to' ai(f in solving thé PWew^.'-.Hls vie^y is fortjfled * of' the atudy;lm'«d^ iWashington, Jan. 5.—Nearly $49,000 will be spent by the fede­ ral government in road consti'uc- tion in and about national for­ ests in North Carolina during the fiscal year beginning July 1, next, it was announced today by Secre­ tary of AgricuituiiB Jfardine, in apportioning among the various stat'e the $7,600,000 road fund for national forests, which will then be available as'part pf the fede­ ral aid yoad'biil.

MOCKSVILL^WINS OVER HARMONY 'Phere seems- to be a report abroad in the land that ' there vvasn’t any liquor 'to be hud dur­ ing the holiday season in upper and western Davie. ' Now, per­ haps the one that put out this false report did not see any, at least I .did not see any. But for the sake of the old fashion truth, I want to inform the public that the wretched “Joy Water” was to be had in almost unknown quan­ tities—quality unvouched for. 'rhe liquor situation has never been as serious in western Davie as it is now. A closed car, bear­ ing a .iitney number from .our North Carolina oflice at Raleigh, frequently ])asses through west­ ern Davie. This "¡false jitney” goes* over roads that no other jitney routes go over. What busi­ ness the “mysterous jitney” has in such places I leave for you to guess., Big expensive-cars from all parts of North Carolina are seen going over some strange routes. Cai's have been seen parked along the roads from far off states and some of their pas­ sengers have been tracked to where the goods were picked up. •Understand the. roads I am speak­ ing of are not State Highways, but just common county and com­ munity roads. These cars are hauling liquor and any blind man ought to know it, saying nothing- about what a man with two eyes and a dry heart should know. Why, yes there is liquor in west­ ern Davie and most everybody knows it and wants to see it put 9Ut of exisfence. But you say, "why do you have so much of the "Joy Water’^ up there? Hero is the main reason. There is a young man of very high ideals just across the lino over..iii Iredell county who, with the Kelp of other splendid men, has put the wets on the hump and has forced them to seek new fields', hence they have moved over into Davie, thereby getting out of his reach.. Now, the question is "what are Davie's'of­ ficerà going-to do about it?

(By Charles McSwain) -Between the yearu of 384 and 322 B. C., there lived a erudite stagirite who got himself into trouble by knowing more than the people of that time had brains to consume and understand. There fore, he had to flee his own coun­ try for a time and seek susten­ ance in another land. Albeit, he is thought to have had more brains than moat anyone who liv­ ed before, or after him. His name was Aristotle and he was a Grecian.

[j^ Vivid Recollection Of Vance’s Inauguration i'om The News & .Observer. ,“I. was. living in the western irt of the coiinty when Vance as inaugurated,” said Judge )hn, ,W. Thompson, "and along ith heariy.everybodx.else in that ictibn came to Raleigh to tlie lauguration. It was the coldost ay even There had been a heavy now. It was not very deep, but tie icy wliid blew .over the snow nd people auffered who were out I'the dpeni The plan had been 0 have the inauguration in Capi- 01 Square, Avhere Aycock was in- ,ugurated in 1901, and a stand ji\d, been erected and seats pro- iided, but it was too cold for inybody to stay out of doors that lay, either to .spenk or to hear ¡peaking. It was decided to hold ;he inauguration exercises in Tucker Hall, then Raleigh’s only fcheatre. “ Governor Vance was stopping fvt the old Yarborough House and everybody went there to see him. f remember there-were trees in front of the Yarborough. When the inaugural committee and the distinguished escort came out of the hotai, Mr. Seaf?raves, who lived near Apex, who was with Vance in the war ,and who had been standing, behind a tree in front of the Yarborough House in the snow, with his clothes and large wool hat literally covered with snow, ran up and hugged Governor Vance, shaking snow ail over him as he did so. Mr. Sen- gra'vfes then got hold of the axler of Vance’s carriage and w'aved his snowy hat and walked all the Way to Tucker Hall beside 'the carriage. "Governor Vance was sworn in by Chief Justice Pearson and made a very brilliant inaugural speech and his opening words were, ‘There is retribution in his­ tory.’ • Aunt Abbey House oc­ cupied a front seat and in the midst- of his speech Governor Vance went down and shook hands with heil An immense crowd came for the inauguration, and Tucker Hall was enth'ply in­ adequate to hold more than a small fraction of those who came. “During the governtoral cam­ paign between Governor Zeb B. Vance, and Judge Thomas Settle, said Judge Thompson, I - heard them in joint debate four times, first at Jonesboro, N. C., \yhere an. immense crowd assembled to hear them. There was an excur­ sion train load from Payetteyille, very lively and very enthusiastic and several clubs came on horse­ back. Then there was a large .crowd of colored people on one side of the grounds. One white man accidently got in tho midst of them and someoire remarked that he*was in a dark cloud. “Judge Settle was an able 'speaker and a very fine orator, but Vance could puncture a fif- teenmlnute speech of his in two minutes. Judge Settle made a lengthy eulogy of^^' the. flag, ie- marking that the United States flag which floats oVer the lahd and the sea and of the homage paid it by all natiohs. When Governor Vance replied he said, ‘Mr. Settle worships the rag upon which the flag is printed;' I wor­ ship the flag of co-equal states. He worships the temple; while I straight :up in the air. 'They were exciting days. “I : recall,” continued Judge Thompson, l‘thnt,,lhe-Raleigh Sen-t tihel printed 'an aiccount of, the Jonesboro speaking that rniist have an interest today.

My G'odl The strangers took me in.’ 'rhat set the crowd on fire and you never hoard such shout­ ing. . “A terrific summer rain inter- rupttd the speaking fpr about a half hour and during the time a of Ryan and Buchannan’s store. A great mass of .human beings stood below in the street, neari,v all of' them wet, and some few up to their chins in hard cider and mean whiskey.

December’s gain over November This muddled situation is due mostly to Secretary Mellon and his oft-repeated, charges that there was no money to pay the bonuses now. That is the reason Congress did not make them pay­ able at. once. Yet we find the government facing a $500,000,000 surplus at the end of the year and maybe ex-servioe men going about begging for loans on paper endorsed by tho United .States' government, ?

The survey shows figur­ es pertaining to tho radio industry from 1922 to date. The number of sets in use as of Jan. 1, 1927, including both fac­ tory-built and home-made, is i)lac- cd at 6,600,000. Compared with the 60,000 receivers in use during 1027, this shows a substantial in­ crease of 6,440,000 receivers in five years. Thé radio audience or number of people listening to sots in use as of Jan. 1, 1927, totals 26¡000,- 000, against the .'75,000 listeners during 1922. Th'e audiehce has more than quadrupled, for each set during 1926, compared with 1922. This is said to be due to tho fact that loud-speakers are more generally used, so that the entire family may «njoy a pro- granj; instead of one member listening in with ear-phones. Money spent in the purchase of radio sets, parts and accessories 'during'the year 1926 amounts to $506,000,000, against .$60,000,000,- ООО spent in 1922.. The total ex­ penditure for the five years from 1922 to 1926, inclusive, for sots, parts and accessories is $1,490,- 000,000. ' The Increase in the use of sots on farms and in rural districts shows a. tremendous increase from 10,000 in 1922 to 1,350,000 in 1926 at the close of the year. Ex­ ports in radio appaiatus'jumped from $2,800,000 in 1922 to $8,- 500,000 at-the close of . 1926. The ranking of States as radio markets, tabulated- from passeng­ er auto registrations, broadcast­ ing stations, income tax returns and population, shows that Ne\y York State leads the country with 10.09 per cent of tho business, having 656,850 sets in use. The next closest rival Is Pennsylvania with 7.7.4 , per cent: of business, using 503,100 seta. Hlinois comps ■third with 7.20 per cent of busl- nea.« done, having In uso 408,000 seta.

It is hard foi’ the tubercle bacilli to make headway in lungs that belong to a strong healthy body. Right living is the beat way to keep well; To live right one must eat n^irishing food, vegetables, a moderate amount of meat, bread, cereals, milk and drink plenty of water. You must get eight hours of sleep out of every twenty-four, and sleep with your windows open summer and winter. Get all the fresh air you can during the day, too. Exercise in the^ fresh air. Don’t work all day and play all night. Overwork and fatigue fare "big factors in tuberculosis breakdowns. Keep clean in mind and body. Wash your hands be­ fore eating, keep.article^ out of your mouth,, bathe regularly and wash your teeth twice a day. Once á year go to a good doctor and have a eomplel:e physical e.\- amination; including your- chest. If your doctor tolls you that you have suspicious Or positive tuber­ culosis and says you must stop work and go to a sanatorium do it—-At once!' ■ , '■ '--------r—---—--------------, , .
