Yet, at least an equal amount of money is lost to weeds through lower corn yields, lower quality and higher harvesting costs. Agronomists at North Caro lina State College say controll ing weeds chemically "is effec tive and will save you money." To show farmers the best method of chemical weed con trol in corn, three of the agron omists have prepared an easy to-read folder containing essen tial information on the subject.

We find the Court House in very poor repair, and re commend that plaster be re paired in the auditorium and given a coat of paint. We also have examined the ground floor and find the foundation giving away and the floor has settled as much as four (4) inches in several places. We do not think the building as a whole is safe to be used in its present condition; especially when large crowds of people assemble ia it. We suggest that the County Commissioners look into this and see what repair* can be made, if any, to make the building safe. Respectfully submitted, W.
