Winton Township, Anderson, Lonnie Linwori, William; Wbat Does Trustee Mean? The Legislature is a body to make laws for the people; not to make laws to suit people but laws to help the people and lead them in the right way, that in the end they may be blessed and benefitted. The trustees are a body of people selected by the public in whose judgement and integrity they place the welfare of their children. A trustee is like a guardian. A teacher might be called ^foster mother, and both shouM be inter ested in the student In every way, physically, mentally, and spiritually This means that they should stand for what is right; to possess a itrong and mighty backbone that will not bend or break; to consider no standard to high; to erace all tendency toward evil; to consider no method too good for little human ?ores wherever they be; to not be governed by the whims of patrons ?r the whines of children, but to hold fast to what is right and best. Will you give your children fire just because they say it is pretty, when in the end it will mean des truction? To be educated means preparation for usefulness; it is a weapon for lifes warefare. Look at the frivolity of the na :ion, then do you wonder why there 3 war? Was it not sent to school as and educate our hearts. The ;ime has come when parents obey :heir children and others are expect M do likewise. Trustees move' in a classical ' way. A school teacher.

Rev. Fred N. Day, who is well known in this section, is a most earnest preacher. The congrega tions are enjoying the ringing, led by Mr. H. B. Eason, for he knows just how to manage a choir. The people who attend the services will be benefitted by the preaching and singing. Quite a crowd came over from the nearby towns Sunday night. All who come are assure^.a welcome from the members of Chowan Church. The services Will continue through Sunday, July 1st. t??rhe Camp Supper given by the Y. W.

WHEAT I GROWING III EASTERN CAROLINA West Raleigh, N. C., June 26? Recently there have come a number of inquiries to the North Carolina Experiment Station from different parts of the Coastal Plain section of the State asking as to the advisabil ity of sowing wheat in this portion of the State during the coming fall. I Ordinarily, with the price of wheat ranging around normal, it is not ' thought advisable to grow wheat on these sandy soils, is the advice given by Mr, C. B. Williams, Cheif of the Division of Agronomy. Wheat does not do as well in this ' portion of the State aq it does on the more compact soils of the Piedmont and Mountain sections. Where one is to grow wheat in the eastern portion of the State, it is of the highest importance that it be sown on the fine grained and more compact loams and clay loam soils. One could not expect satis factory results on coarse sand, or bla<;k lands made up largely of hum us material. In sowing wheat in this portion of the State, or in any other portion, it will usually be the part of wisdom to wait untill after a frost has oc cured. If sown before frost there will be danger of attack from the Hessian flv. which is one of the very worst enemies of the wheat crop. The land should be prepared in advance, so that it will W some what comDact below without beinir ? har^tr\Then just before sowing, y have thVtt^per three inches put in n lined condition. Where practical to do so, the seed should be put in t with the drill using bout one bushel v of seed per acre. c For ordinary land, it is suggested t that at least 200 to 300 potinds of j fertilizer be used per acre. a Good varieties to use of the g smooth headed type are Purple e Straw, Leap's Prolific, and Fultz; e and of the bearded type, Fulcas- f ter. _ o Even with the high'price of wheat f> at the present time and the prospect c af high prices during the coming n ^ear, it does not seem advisable to a to extend this crop to areas or types a if soil not especially adapted to its rrowth. t; GIRLS!

Due to the fact that some parties wish to sell the farmers of the east ern section of North Carolina treat ments which wiil accomplish only temporary releif from the attacks if hog cholera, they have at tempted to create distrust of the methods advocated by Dr. F. D. J wen, who has in charge the work >f eradicating hog cholera in this lection. Dr. Owen wishes to warn ill hog growers against being mis ed by false or unfounded reports, ind has issued the following state ment in regard to the matter: "It has been brought to my atten tion that someone has been advising he hog growers in the northeastern counties of North Carolina that the 10 called simultaneous treatment serum and virus) for hog cholera, hrough which hogs acquire lasting mmunity against the disease, will itunt or retard the growth of the fTiimals, and that such treatment rill also set up, in many instances, ases of chronic cholera. "In my connection with the inves igation and control of hog cholera ince the inauguration of the work iy the United States Bureau of Ani nal Industry, part of my. duties iave been to'treat and supervise he treatment of thousands of hogs rith the serum and virus. In all ases of treatment, careful observa ion of the herds is kept in order to etermine the results on infected nd noninfected farms. In no in tance has a single case been report d or observed where the simultan ous inoculation had in any way af ected the growth and development f the pigs >7 or shoats so treated. Jeither have I any knowlege of holera being caused by this treat ment when done according to in tructions of the State and Federal uthorities. '"In order to be absolutely sure hat available evidence does not warrant such advice to farmers, I ook the matter up with the Bureau f Animal Industry at Washington nci the office of the State Veterina ian at Raleigh. In answer to these .quiries I received letters reading ractically as follows, which are ublished for the benefit of those rho have received ill-advised in duction concerning the serum and irus method of treating hogs; Uaitri St?Ui Kfpt. ?f JgrieilUri lirui ?r Uiail liintry Wukiigttl, I.C. ? May 20. 1917. >r. F. D. Owen, Ehzabtth City, It. 6. Sir:?Receipt is acknowledged of our letter of May 26, stating that ou have been informed that parties 1 North Carolina' teach that the erum and virus treatment > for og cholera often produce* the dis ast' in chronic form, and is, there ore, more dangerous than beneficial; Iso that farmers are being advised hat the serum simultaneous inocu ition is liable to stunt or retard the :rowth of the animals. These reports should not be taken eriously, because statements such s attributed to the parties in ques ion ars|not based upon facts, and us lally are not made by these with iractical experience and full know! dge of the subject. It is a well known fact that suc essful swine breeders in the princi tal hograising districts of the West iave abandonod the use of the serum lone method and will consider only he simultaneous inoculation in the reatment of their herds. The Bureau has treated and aup> rvised the inoculation of nearly lalf a million of hogs under various ield conditions with very satisfac ory results, and in no instance iave complaints been made of the erum-simultaneous inoculation hav ng interfered in any with the rrowth of.the pigs so treated. % I THE PATRIOTISM OF THE AMERICAN PRESS The service rendered to the gov ernment of the United States in the sale of the Liberty Loan Bond* of 1917 by the press of the country ia record evidence of the generous pa triotism of the newspaper men of America. It is recorded in the pa ges of thousands of American news papers, many of them printed in foreign languages, from the largest daily to the smallest country week* ly. The newspapers of the country "came across" with liberal dona tions of space in news, editorial, and advertising columns. Newspaper men have observed with deep and peculiar pleasure the whole-hearted activity of men of their fraternity in the country in promoting the sale of the Liberty Lorfn Bonds. The influence and As sistance of all publications in mak ing the loan a success are simply incalculable. Their efforts greatly contributed to making it a double success in that it was not only large- ? ly over-subscribed but the Liberty Loan Bonds were placed in every community in the United States, in cities and in i emote country dis tricts, in mining towns and manu facturing centers, among farmers and country merchants as well as city bankers and Urge commercial and manufacturing houses. ? It was a great educational cam paign. Readers of their county paper in their country homea, and new American citizens from papers printed in their old language, who in the evening spelled out the news in the great daily papers, were in formed of the purposes and objects of the Liberty Loan and instructed in the nature, value, and terms of Government Bonds, especially the Liberty Loan Bonds of 1917. The whole Nation has made a long stride forward in financial education through the Liberty Loan campaign of 1917 as conducted through the press of the country The country press which without compensation gave liberally of'its limited space is equally deserving of praise with the larger papers. In their respective spheres all classes of publications in the country covered their field thoroughly and well. The press of America can look back on the work it performed for the Liberty Loan as a great public ser vice, ably, thoroughly, and unself ishly performed. William G. McAdoo, Secretary of the Treasury. Respectfully, (Signed) J. R. Mohler, Acting Cheif of Bureau. "Dr. B. B. Flowe's letter follows: Iwtk Ctrtliat .f Igrinltirt ? ? lalfigk May 28. 1917, Dr. F. D. Owen, Elizabeth City, N. C. Dear Sir:?I am in receipt of your letter of May 26. After read ing it carefully, 1 with to state that I do not beleive that serum and vir us, if properly administered, would have any harmfuf effect whatsoever on the animals it is administed to. I think that Eastern North Car olina will make very little progress if they rely solely on the use of the anti-hog cholera serum and elimin ate the virus or simultaneous treat ment. Nor do I beleive that the use of the serum or the serum and virus, stunts or retards the growth of the hogs. We could point out some very nice herds of hogs which have been treated with the serum and vims, and tn this connection I will refer to the herd of swine at Pinehurst. I am sure the U. S. Department of Agriculture does not advocate nor endorse the position taken by the parties in question. Very truly yours, (Signed) B. B. Flowe, State Veterinarain."
