H ?-tt, Ahoske, N C Death of Tunisia Garrett Tommic Garrett, the youngest ion of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Garrett, died at his parents home here last Satur daynight, just tfter he had eaten ?upper. His death was sudden and was a distinct shock to the family and friends.. He has recently been newsboy for the Virginian-Pilot pa pers here in Ahoskie, and on Satur day morning he served his route as usual, there being no aparent change in his condition. Even at supper time he was in normal condition. Tommie has for many years been the unfortunate subject of epileptic fits, and it was the outcome of one of these that caused his death. He was stricken soon after eating his supper, but, due to the fact that he is subject to these quite often with out fatal results, the family took on ly the ordinary precautions, giving him the best treatment possible. La ter a physician was summoned, but it was too late. The fueral was conducted in the Methodist church Sunday afternoon. Burial took place immediately fol lowing the fueral exercises, hit body being laid in the family burying plot on the farm of Mr. J. P. Brett, near Ahoskie. THE PEANUT GROWER .Just before going to press today the HERALD was in receipt of the week paper published in Suffolk, Va, "PEANUT GROWER" a twice-a by the Peknut Exchange. The paper contains four pages and seven col umns in width. It will be devoted to the interests ofthat organization. PEANUT FARMERS HAD A BIG TIME IN SUFFOLK, VA. The outstanding feature of the ral ly of the peanut growers at their rally in Suffolk last Thursday was the ad dress of C. R. Titlow, secretary of the farm land bank of Baltimore, and the free movies, which were run at intervals throughout the whole of the day. In the absence of Governor Bick ett, Mr. Titlow had the whole morn ing session for a presentation of the farm land bank, which he did in such a manner as completely captivated his hearers by his straightforward bus ineas manner of presenting this mat ter of such vital importance to the future development of American agri culture. But while he was present ing the great gossibiliiites of agricul ture with unlimited millions to loan on farming lands, he did not fail to emphasize the great need for or ganization on the part of the farmers in order that they may get the full benefits of the increased financial fa cilities now at their command. An interesting fact developed in the course of his discussions was the Vir ginia and North Carolina are both so well organized that less than a half dozen counties in either state is now without its farm land associate through which all applications for the loans are made. At the business session in the af ternoon W. J. Story, of Courtland, Va., was re-elected as president of the Virginia-Carolina Peanut Grow ers Association ,the organization that has played such a large part in the formation of the Exchange. He haa not only given freely of his time but it was shofrn that he has rendered valuable financial assistance at a time when.it was so-greatly needed. The Secretary and Manager of the Exchange is also Secretary of the Association. . The Kings Daughters added great t othe pleasures of the >lav by serv ing suitable lunches during the noon hour and acting as hostesses to their farmer visitor*. The large number of "ALL THREE badges in evidence were striking to kens of the full spport of the Peanut Growers are giving to their various activities. The report of the man ager of the Exchange showing three carloads of peanut bag* sold and the same number bought, was a matter of much gratification to the members-.
