BEANS ARE RICH IN VITAMINES. May be Grown in Garden Through oat the Year. In North Carolina a, continuous supply of .beans may be had from early spring until the first frost in the fall. Beans are rich in vitamiueß which are essential to good health. Also green beans are bulky and some bulky foods should be eaten at every meal. "To produce beans successfully in the home garden" says R. F. Payne, Extension Horticulturist for the State College of Agricul ture " the soil should be broken deep and thoroughly pulverized with a harrow and drag. It should be well drained and contain plenty of organic matter. A san dy loamy soil ia preferred for the early crop and a heavier soil for the mid-seasons and late crop. "Stable manure should be ap plied to other crops in the rota tion. A good high grade fertili zer, applied at the rate of 800 pounds per acre will give good re sults on most soils. "Beans should be planted 1$ to 2 inches deep on heavy soils and 2 to 3 inches deep on light soils. Snap beans should be 2$ to 3 feet between rows and 8 to 4 inches apart in the row. Pole beans and pole lima* should be 4 ft. between rows and 2to 3 teet apart in the row. Bush limas should be 3 ft between rows and 6 to 10 inches podded pole beans are Hortioul tncky Green podded Wax podded pole beans are Gold- HOME DEMONSTRATION CORNER .

(The Cleveland Star, March 14, 1984) Shelby, N. C., Mar. 1, 1924. Dr. N* Y. Qulley, Wake Forest, N. C. Dear Doctor: I have your fitvor of February 28, and'ooncur with yon that the moet cordial relations exist be tween yon and your many former law students. Personally, my fondness for my school days at old Wake Forest increasea with the years. My thoughts frequently turn to you and your most inter esting lectures in the classroom. I am qUjte sure that you do not have an old student who is more appreciative of your-splendid ef forts, or is personally fonder of you than myself. It is therefore always a pleasure to me to hear from you. I am, however, quite a bit sur prised at the contents of your let ter, but assure you that what I have to say is only m love for and with the hope of being of some service to you. You have been in close touch with the political movements in our state for a much longer period than I, but I have beeu equally in personal touch and-knowledge of the activities of Mr. Bailey, concerning whom yoti write. I agree with you that "the can didacy of Mr. Brtiley is unique", but in my humble opinion it is unique because his platform and Verbal enunciations are in direct conflict with the life and activi ties of the sauie Mr. ISai'ey dur ing the past 25 years. The prin cipal part of his platform, and the part of which you refer, relates to his opposition to the democratic "machine". You know as well as I that Mr. Bailey has for many years been the crank-shaft to the democratic machine in North Carolina. I, with many others, have been fighting the battles for a free'and untrameled democracy in North Carolina when Bailey and Watte were our most vigorous and aggressive opponents. Bailey, as you know, held office under the "machine" for many years. He and his revenue agents in the last gubernatorial campaign were the principal factors in defeating the candidate who opposed the machine. After manipulating the machine and his revenue agents to encompass the defeat of Gard ner for governor, Bailey continu ed to help manage the affairs of the machine and dispense its pat ronage. He then strongly recom mended Watts for lax commis sioner of the state, the man who had been his right bower in his activity ia behalf of the machine. Mr. Bailey has either now been converted or tnrned traitor to the machine. If bia conversion is real, he should be» content to carry a gun and fight as a private in the ranks until he has proved his faith by his works. If he has merely deserted the machine for office, his case will merit no dis cussion. Mr. Bailey's candidacy ia also "unique" by reason of his plat form on taxation, which likewise is a complete reversal of his former activities and utterances on the subjeot. I waa a member of the legialatnre in 1919 and heard that famous bout between Bailey and Maxwell. I, together with a number of other members of the legislature, doubted the wisdom of Revaluation Aot for fear it would place an unreason able per cent of the burden of taxation upon the land and the small home owner. To answer this objection the finance commit-* tee prepared and asked for the passage of a constitutional amend ment to permit the levy of an in come tax with the promise that, enacted, the state property tax would be eliminated. At that time Mr. Bailey opposed the in come tax amendment, and in his argument before the committee urged that same to defeated and the revenue required be obtained by increasing the tax upon land, livestock, the farmer's ass and his hot;. That way the time when Mr. Bailey made his famous declaration that the farmer would "charge yon more for a ham than the tax valne of the whole bog." At a time so recent Mr. Bailey waa championing the interest of the corporations and the big wealth of the atate.. * ♦ * • So yon oan clearly see hia present campaign ia very "unique." You likewise know-as well as I, that since Mr. Bailey's connection as a trustee of Wake Forest Col lege waa severed he. has consist ently opposed practically every Wake Forest man and Baptist 1 who has sought political prefer-! ment of note in onrstate. Hob*. I not only done this, bnt he has so timed and phrased same as the opposition of "a Baptist and a Wake Forest man" so as to com mand extra weight and influei.ee. I consider that#this was peculiar ly true in your case. When I, together wita many of yonr old stadents and frieuds throughout the state, were going pnt to bat tle for you for Supreme court judge with strong prospects of victory, we suddenly met the vigorous and active opposition of this same Mr. Bailey, ,w ho oppos ed you to the limit. For these reason) and many othersl cannot support Mr. Bailey tot governor, and believe, if you will calmly reflect on, same, you will agree with me. - Whether you do or not, I shall always retain the same admiration, respect and, veneration for you. I would appreciate a hearing. With every good "&.. 1 am, Yours cordially, O. M. MULL. WHO MB. MCLL IS. , The gubernatorial champaign in this section is awakening and the Gulley letter and the O. M. Mull reply will doubtless serve to kindle more interest. *Mr. McL&an has a strong and courageous sup porter in the person of O. M. Mull. He is at present the , democratic county chairmaa of Cleveland county. Mr. Mull is well known in Cleveland county for his high character and vigorous support of men and measures he deems wor thy. For 15 years he wa3 the law partner of Federal Judge E. Yates Webb until Judge Webb was ap pointed by President Wilson to the Fi>deral bench. Be managed with great success the campaign of Clyde R; Hoey for congress and four years age was the- 9th district manager for 0. Max Gard ner for governor. He -knows the people of the 9th district and they know and trust him. Sale of Real Estate Under Mortgage Deed.
