C., m class matter GRAHAM. N. C., June 4/1925. A GREAT PAPER. On May*lßth, the Charlotte Ob server came out in a big "Progress and. Prosperity" edition of 252 pages, covering every phase of in dustry and business of the two Car'olinaa —a real history of Carolina business. It covered present busi ness, what has been, and prospec tive. It was the biggest piece of news paper enterprise ever attempted in the Southeastern States. To de scribe it would require a long write up. It contained thousands of illus trations, much of it in colors. Jußt a few things to give an idea of the bigness of the edition. It took 90 tons, or 180,000 pounds, the equi valent of six carloads, of paper to print it; aud it ib said it would have taken one man a life time, if h9 had known how to do each part, to pro duce the paper. The Observer has been mnch complimented, and deservedly so, on this fine piece of newspaper enter prise and the service rendered. Leadership Requirements. Trained Men. 1.

CO-OP LOCAL HITS AT 'BAD' DOG LAW. Organized Group Mobilizes Pubic Opinion to Solve Problems. Proof that no community prob lem U too small Co handle in a meeting of Tri-State Co-operative Tobacco Growers is indicated in the action of the Guilford county local last week. After consider ing more important busiuei»s, by far, the Guilford local pa sod a resolution protesting the passage, daring the recent session of the General Assembly, of a dog and game law. Details of the objectionable law which uroused the opposition ol the Guilford local, which was a well attended meeting of leadihg farmers iu that section of I In state, were not supplied by the daily uowspaper accounts of the meeting. Action on the resolu tion, however, the press pointed out, came after 11. F. White, field representative of the association, had turned the called meetiug into au open forum. Dog and game laws,. as every visitor upon ths sessions o? the General Assembly know, are tiie most vexatious things the average farmer nas to conti ud with. Es pecially is this true iu the coun ties which have much game. The dog law, since tne late J. Frank Ray wrote ami had passed "A Literary Gem" has been a far greater concern than the subject itself indicates. Field representatives report that the local nie*jtof the co ops are becoming, moieand n.ore, A cleanup house fur community problemM. Inonecouuty recent ly a 00-op meeting; considered MI length the problem of which route a new hard surfaced highway would be built. Unquestionably thu organized efforts of the farm ers along this line will have a greater influence with the powers that construct roads and erect school houses phan any other Bingle group. The Gnilford local meeting last week, which considered the ap parently inconsequential dog law by a rising vole signilied it» in tention to stand squarely behiud the tobacco association, Air. White discussed the intimate de tails of the co-ops, giving any in formation asked for, and the re sponse to his meeting was the unanimous renewal of allegiance! lie pointed out that the Aaso ciatiou slogan for 1025 is 200,0uu, 000 pounds of tobacco aud he told how, in 11)22, the organization pre pared to lecuive an J handle a quarter of a billion pounds. This original estimate was, he emphasized, based upon contracts in band, many of which turned out to have been "faked" by inen who were more concerned with the money they were making thaii the good of the association. Johu Grooine, a member of the Guilford local, made some p'-rtiu ent remarks at the recent meeting. "We do not have to control the market to put this Association on a paying basis," Mr. Urcouie told his fellow members. The prin ciple of the association is ulern ally right. We, through the co operative association, ought to be able to sell our tobacco cheaper than on the open market. "I want hereafter," Mr. Uroome also said, "to see each ocal) of the association represented at the meeting of the Hoard of Di rectors that the business may be carried first hand to the runners who would be willing to co-operate with something they know is not in the dark".

THE ALAMANCE GLEANEIfc, GRAHAM, H. C. i War Declared on The Scrub Bull Is your i>ull raising or lowering lite average prod action of your herd? This is a question to which every dairyman shoud give seri ouh thought. There is no profit iu milking low producing cows tnd the characteristic of liigh production must be inherited. A cow is bofn with a certain nat ural ability to produce inilk. I'lie exteut of this ability depeuda upon her breeding and there is no method of feeding or management that will bring about high pro duction iu a cow that does not have an inherited tendency for iiigh production. One-half or more of the charac teristics of your future herd will he inherited from the sire, there lore the herd's capacity for # uiilk and fat production will be raised or lowered according to the abili ty of this animal to transmit this characteristic. A few poor cows will do little permanent damage to Lho herd, but a poor bull will do uutold damage. This fact lias been clearly demonstrated iu the daughters of a Jersey bull used in the University oi Missouri's herd. Carefully kept records showed t.liai their average fat production was 20 percent lower lhau that of tll«ir daui«. Iu this same herd the first five daughters of Sultan's Virginia Lid, another Horsey bull, averagnd ill pounds of tat a-> two year-old's, while their dams (it i tie sam 3 age averaged 27L Doming home we nave au example of increased aud more prolitaoie production iu the daughters of Eminent the l'Jth. Ten of his mature daughters iu one year produced 7730 pouuds of inilk and 570 pounds of fat more thau their dams ot the a n r o. In spiteof the fact that g >od bulls do iucrease production and thereby increase proti s, we have iu u« i i North Carolina live grade scrub bulls for each purebred. Such a breeding practice is partly re sponsible for the low average an nual milk production of the North Carolina cow, which is too low to be profitable. The ratio of milk production to the percentage of purebred sires in service is well illustrated by data assembled by the Bureau ot Dairying, U. 8. Department of Agriculture According to this information, the average anuual milk production per cow in the Stato of Connecticut, here 46 per cent of the dairy bulls are pure bfeds, is 4,128 pounds. Iu North Carolina wncre only 21 percent of the dairy bulls are purebreds the average annual milk production per cow is 2,666 pounds. In view of the above facts it is dillicult to understand why a far mer willinvest iu high priced laud, buildings aud cattle aud then jeop ardize his future income by uoing a poor bull. The cost of the bull cannot be the explanation because in a herd of twenty grade cows the investment iu the bull would not exceed 1-10 of thatin the cows. Again the value of the increased production of the daughters of a goou bull over that of their dams Re-Sale!

' in one year will often amount to inore than the cost of the bull. The Extension lorce and tl» leading dairying of the State have resolved that the scrub bull has done enough damage to our dairy industry and have declared war on him iu the form of a State-Wide Buttor-Dairy-Sires Campaign, which began March 18b and will continue until September Ist. During tllis time many spet ial drives will be put on by various county agents assisted by local leaders and dairy extension spec liaists. .This»compaigu represents a fundamental step in removing from the dairy "industry of the State one of its"greatest handicaps - low production aud should have the support of every citizen because all are vitally interested either directly or indirectly in this industry.
