THE GLEANER 1880ED KvKhV TB0E8DAT. ? I J. D. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Entered at U10 Poetoffloe at Graham. N. C., hi eeooad-olaaa matter. GRAHAM. N. 0., AUG. 23, 1928. Josephus Daniels accepts Mr. Smith, but says the 18th amend ment and the Volstead act should remain unchanged. The debate is off between Gov. A1 Smith and the Kev. John Stra tou on account of certain serions charges the latter inade from bis pulpit. Smith proposed to meet him where the charges were made and answer. Straton demurred as to the place?in other words, backed out. Senator Simmons has spoken at last. Says he will not vote for Suiith, bat will support the state ticket and other Democratic nominees. Nor will be vote for Hoover. His decision does not come as any big surprise, since he resigned as a National Committee man and took the stand he did against Smith's nomination. He has played a losing game and the end is not yet. However he may rue, the die is cast. Oov. A1 Smith made a states man's speech Wednesday night in Albany, N. Y., accepting the Democratic nomination for presi dent. Tho speech has been much complimented. Even many Re publicans have been constrained to speak well of it. He speaks directly and forcefully. He stands by his views as to the 18th amend ment and the Volstead act. Hie stand on these will cost him many Totes, as will also the fact that he is a Catholic. The elements had a hand in it ' Wednesday evening. in Albany a down-pour prevented all bat a email percent of the many thou sands gathered from hearing Gov. Al. Smith's acceptance speech. And in these parts radio owners said the static (whatever that is) was the worst they had ever ex perienced ; so only parts of sen tences were heard now and then. Will som eone now say it was not to be. High Records Mode By Jersey Cattle. One State record and one world's record waa broken by Jersey cows completing official teste in Catawba county . daring the past year. The new State record was established by a senior yearling with a production of 12, 098 pounds of milk and 614.1 pounds of fat while the world's record waa made by a fourteen year old cow with a production of 14,737 pounds of milk and 812.3 pounds of fat. The world's rec ord is for cows over twelve years old, according to County Ageut J. W. Hendricks. There was a total of 39 Jersey , cows put on official test in this county during the year and 26 of them have completed theii records. Of this number, three were awarded medals of merit, eight won gold medals and six won silver medals. The highest record was made by a four year old cow with a production of 16,316 pounds at milk and 889.3 pounds of fat, whil< the lowest record was also made ? ? by a four year old oow with only 7,652 pounds of milk and 600.1 pounds of fat. One oow completing her record this year has won the medal ol merit for the past three yean. Her average production for tfaeei years is 17,973 pounds of mill and 928.6 pounds of fat. Another record made by i Jersey now Jn Catawba county was that of producing more but terfat daring the year 1927 thai any other Jersey In the Unite* States. Far this feat herownei was awarded the President's Cu] S- the American Jersey Cattl< ah. With reeorda like these, is then any reaann why Catawba county W. should not be elected as one ?

Evening News, says: That newspapers are fre quently criticized for publishing murder stories, but newspapers do not commit the murders; newspapers are often condemn ed for giving publicity to di vorco cases, but newspapers do not create the divorce evils; newspapers are denouueed for making public details of fraud and dishonesty on the part ot men in public office, but it is not the newspapers which in duce these men to violate their oaths of office and to accept il legal gratituties; newspapers are criticized for what they publish, while in very many in stances they should be com mended for what they withhold because practically every decent newspaper published in the United States desires to protect not only the good name of its community but the good name of the citizens who make up that community. It is, in my opinion, the duty of a newspaper to fairly, impar tially and fearlessly give decent publicity to all matters arising in its community which are of vital interest to not only the city in which it is published, but to its thousands of readers. Every worthwhile newspaper man recognizes the fact that there are times when a news paper is justified in suppressing information if the suppression of that information does not in any way work out an evil or injury to the community in which that newspaper is pub lished. Protecting the good name of unfortunate girls is ' the recognized duty of every decent publisher as is the expos i ing of men in public life whb are misusing the funds of the public or converting the powers of their office to their own per sonal gain. I am entirely out of sympathy with those persons who believe that newspapers should do the "ostrich act or who feel that by shutting their eyes to the illeg al actions of evil men and re fusing to recognize shameful conditions they are doing their duty as they should do it. It is plainly the duty of a news paper to expose these persons and conditions as the first step in eliminating and curing intol erable situations. The time has come in Ameri ca when newspapers should stand up and defend themselves against the carping and unfair criticism of persons who, for ulterior motives, desire to see the newspapers fall to as low a state as they themselves occupy in condoning crime and duplic ity in public office. I am hopeful that as time goes on every newspaper in every community in the United States will frankly and i fearlessly perform its duty as an . agency to eliminate graft in public office and to aid in every way possi ble the maintenance of decency and I law and order in its community that ? its growth and prosperity may be aided and advanced^ r*H- ? x Cooling Drinks For Hot Days , "Fruit juices anil punches are , especially useful during the hot 1 summer months not only for their , cooling properties but for their , vitamin and mineral content as . well," states Miss Mary E. Thomas, nutrition specialist at State Col legs. ' V "The juices, however, should [ never be sweetened too much. Leave the natural flavor of the t fruit and add sugar or sugar t syrup until sweetened to taste. The sugar syrup may be made by i boiling one eup of sugar in one r half eup of water for ten minutes. - When the syrup is done put in a i jar or bottle and keep in the lee 1 box until needed." r Mine Thomas states that lemons ) are an absolute neeessity for all ? fruit punches as they furnish the tartness not supplied by the ? fruits. A combination of lemon, 7 orange and pineapple juices may f be used as a basis for many I drinks. To one eup of these 7 juices, add one eup of the prepar ed fruit juice taeb an stupe, cherry or strawberry. This should be diluted with water to make ? . V , New Mebane Fair Grounds Near Ready Besides Farm Products Exhibits, En tertainment and Amusement Feat ures Will be Unsurpassed in State ?Time Sept- 18 to 22. Inclusive Work on the Mebaue six couu tios Fair grounds, which has been in progress for the past nine months, is just about complete and preparations have been made for the biggest and best fair ever heid here, according to secretarp C. S. Parnell, who slates that con tracts have been signed for the biggest fireworks display, the most elaborate outlay of amuse ments of any district fair ever held in the state. There will be something new in amusements at this fair never be fore attempted at auy fair in the si tie. While the game is old, still for fairs, iuis new and from reports coming in it will go over big. There is a big "barnyard golf" or horseshoe throwing tour nament, which will be held every afleruoou, and there will be an elimination contest, the winners to receive prizes. Owiug to the fact that this fair, which is held this year Septem ber 18 to 22, is featuring cattle and poultry, two big cattle sheds have been erected, giving more than three hundred and eighty feet of space, and the poultry de partment has, for the first time, been open to the state. Many people from over the state have nlready inspected the new fair grounds and without ex ception every one stated that the location, plans and everything is most suitable for a fair of this magnitude. Nearly all space in the mer chants and manufacturers build ing has been taken and this build ing will be filled from top to bot tom with merchants and -manu facturers of every tune. The fair management has branded as false a rumor to the effect that colored people will not be admitted to the fair grounds only omSaturday. They will be admitteB as usual and their ex hibits will be in display as usual. J list how this rumor started is unknown but it is false in every sense. Colored people are wel come every day and night. Burke Family Reunion Will Be Held at Sandv Branch Church, Chatham County, August 26th?Prominent in State's Early History?Dr. Whitsett Will Make Historical Address. The regular annual reunion of the member* and friend* of the LSurke family will be held next Sunday, August 26th, at Sandy Branch church, near Boulee in Chatham county. It is directly on state high way No. 6U. Preparations are being made for the largest gathering this year that has ever been held of this family and its connections. The Burke family was here early in America, more than six hundred members of this family being record ed in the first U. S. census of 1790. Many pages of the colonial records of this state are devoted to the doings of fhe Burkes. Thomas Burke, a native of Ireland, settled at Ilillaboro in 1774, and in 1781 was elected Governor of North Car olina by acclamation. He served in a period of unusal trial. There were many other notable members of the Burke family of the Burke family in our earlier history, and Chatham county and the surround ing counties have hundreds of the connections of this family. They ire expected to be on hand in large numbers for this reunion. The historical address giving the interesting story of the Burke family, . and especially the almost forgotten incidental the earlier days will be given this year by Dr. W. T. Wit sett of Wbitaett who has devoted many years to research into our earlier history and the history of out first settler*. It is expected that a great gather ing will bis present for the reunion of next Sunday. four or five cape of punch find garnished with a slice of fruit 01 mint. If the fruit jnices hav< been sweetened, add just enougl syrup to sweeten to taste withoul i losing the fruit flavor. To eoloyUlw-pufteh or "drink without tjpe use of artificial oolor i ing, juices from red or black rasp berries or strawberries may b< i need. This gives the "pink lem i onade" color so popular witl children. 'Tor a mors peppy drink, gin ger ale may be used or charged i water may be substituted for th< ? plain. Spices, such as stick cln nam on. cloves and nutmeg may i be boiled in the water to gin i added flavor," says Miss Thomas WHAT FARM ACCOUNTING MEANT IN THE MANAGEMENT OF A FARM' Successful Farmer Tells How Pen/il Helped Guide His Operations and Swell His Income?An Aid to Better Credit?Shows Profits and Prevents Losses. /T*HE owner and operator of one of the most, successful dairy A farms in Wisconsin prepared recently for the Agricultural Commission of the American Bankers Association a first hand statement of the part farm accounting has played in the management of his enterprise. This operator, W. J. Dougan, tells the following story: "When I started farming I began keeping a simple cash - account, but soon found that it was not sufficient accounting for (" ? o...1. . jij <2s_ I iitrui yuiyuacs. ouia a recuiu uiu uui take into consideration the vital fac tors of improvements, growth of live stock or depreciation. "Since 1910 I have kept a complete account on the accrual basis. The accounts, however, are no more than any farmer can easily keep. The out standing benefits from keeping such accounts might be listed as follows: The Way It Works "1. Income tax reports made easier. ?Accurate and dependable income tax reports can be made from the yearly accounts. By keeping, them on file I am always ready to satisfy the tax inspectors. "2. Accounting makes possible a budget system.?With the accumulat ed data of the past years, I can make ont the budget for the coming year. The income being fairly stable, the budget problem is to adjust the ex penditures. If one branch of the busi ness will need extraordinary expendi ture such as new machinery, there must be a cut in some other branch, such as building or livestock par chased, or fencing. "3. Accounting gives a true basis for credit.?Especially has accounting meant for me larger credit and happy relations with my banker. With a complete financial statement before him the banker can Intelligently deter mine what credit I should hare. With a fall knowledge of the farm profits in the phst, I know-what credit I should accept. No farmer or business man should accept credit from hi* bank unless he Is able to pat the money Into productive Investment, and his margin of profit assures the ability to repay the loan within a reasonable time. "For the farm this reasonable time cannot be three or six months. The farm turnover Is too slow for that A helpful and just period of farm credit for working capital most be from one to four years. "There Is another benefit from ac counting?the benefit of knowing whether one Is going np or down. By extra sales one might be flush of money and buy heavily, thinking he Is coming out ahead, bat In reality he is sacrificing the future. On the other hand, one might feel pinched, and - have little money to spend, bat In reality he Is laying np capital." The bankers Agricultural Commis sion has suggested the following form of farm credit statement, Indicating the records necessary to be kept: i l SUGGESTED FARM CREDIT STATEMENT < (Adapted from blank .used by Federal Reserve Bank, Chicago) One Of The First Important Factors In Farm Accounting ?

Cotton Dresses For Summer For comfort, looks and [Econ omy, the cotton fabrics are espec ially snited to onr climate, states Miss Willie N. Hunter, clothing specialist at State College. Then, too, their laundering qnalities add mnch to the value of garments from this material. I The many kinds of materials - made from cotton allows a choice i of garments and dresses for all > occassions, she states. Piques, : Indian head prints and broadcloth are especially . snited for street : and sport cfothee, whole frocks, - blouses, skirts, separate coats ? and hats, while the beautiful t prints with their patterns are ex - cellent for children's wear. Hats i may be of pique in pale pastel colors or solid white but are also ? very smart when made of broad 1 cloth. Belts of matching ma^rial i are often stitched and wornwrith - these hats. For dressier wear, Miss Hunter ? recommends the dimities, voiles, . and cellaneee in solid soloes erj flplaPdesi^iis. These materials may be bought at any store. Organdie is also an ideal summer fabric for evening wear, especial ly for the young girl. This ma terial is now made with a soft finish which makes it much more wearable and durable than the organdie made a few years ago. Hiss Hunter states that during the hot weather, dresses and othea clothing should be changed often an<J for that reason reoom mends cotton fabrics as they have the best absorbent qualities, stand laundering better than other materials, are better heat coodue tors than eilheg silk or wool and are the coolest textile fabrics we have. These qualities and the cheapness of the materials make cotton goods the ideal fabric for summer. 4 Plan now to seed some barley and alfalfa this fall.
