1 HE GLEANER GRAHAM, N. C., DEC. 19 1935. IB*UC^ CVfckY IBCtllllt) J. O. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANt tcered at toe 3o*tofflce HtGraram N,C..ti teco ia-iaa? m?tur A factory at Corning, >f. Y., j takes fragile, brittle glass and of it makes fluffy yarns. What next! One suggests door-knob puddings. Japan wants parity in naval equipment, to which there will be greater opposition than was shown to her clippin goff terri tory with 95 millions from the Chinese empire. Reports from the country at large are to the effect business gains in trade, buying and sell- j ing, have almost reached the stage of a half dozen years ago. If the depression could be for gotten?some will, some wont, some can't. Tuesday was the 32nd anni versary of the flight the Wiight brothers, Orville and Wilbur, made at Kitty Hawk, N. C., in a frail heavier-than-air ma chine. Wilbur has been dead many years and buried in the Kitty Hawk hills. OrviUe is still in the industry at Dayton, Ohio. On the anniversary air men honored Orville at Dayton. At Woodstock, Ontario, Can ada, a woman, fifty years old, the mother of nine children, a former church worker and Sal vation Army "lassie," was tak en from her cell and hanged. She had been convicted of pois oning her husband that she might marry another man. The execution of a woman rarely finds a place in modern civiiza tion. The National debt has reach ed the all-time peak of more than 30 billions. Recently a council of foremost financiers advised the president that the United States could stand a load of from "50 to 70 billions without impairment of the country's credit, but that such , a debt would be too burdensome I on the tax payers, and of course did not sanction such an experiment. No one, if in his right mind, would sanction an increase of indebtedness up to the breaking point. The Republicans have decided to hold their national conven tion in Cleveland. Ohio, next year. Chicago and Kansas City were also contestants for the honor Each city offered: $150,000. Of course it is ex pected to swing Ohio, for many years strongly Republican and the mother of several presi dents, back solidly into the Re publican column. She might again furnish the candidate to replace Hoover, Gov. Landon of Kansas, Mr. Knox of Chica go or Senator Borah. Bruno ritchard Hauptman, kidnaper-murderer of the Lind- I bergh baby over three years ago, whose electrocution is now set for January 13th, is offered life if he will confess. An ap peal lo the U. S. Supreme court has been denied him. There seems to be nothing to the re port that new evidence has been discovered. There may be noth ing to the report that he will be given his life for a confee sion, just as other reports were unfounded. He is writing what purports to be the story of his life from his prison cell. Some believe his story is pure pn>pa ganda for the purpose ot excil^ ? ing public sympathy that will reach the ears of the Governor of New Jersey and cause him ; to change the sentence from j death to a term of years: A major battle betweeu Ital ians and Ethiopians, starting on the 15th and ending on the 17tli, a.x-ording to an account, resulted in the death of 272 Italians an.1 estimated 500 Ethi opians. A plan to end the war by giving outright 125,000 square miles to Italy and put ting 130,000 more miles under Italian control, received an em phatic no from the Ethiopian monarch, Haile Salessie. With modern implements of warfare and bombing planes Italy out matches Ethiopia in every way, but Ethiopia cherishes the opin- J ion that she can wipe out the j Italian armies, but the reverse seems more probable. The League of Nations, beyond its lax sanctions has accomplished little toward ending the war. At every projiosal Mussolini ex hibits a certain amount of con tempt No terms proposed ap pear to be acceptable to the League council. Another Eu ropean war, the thing least wanted, is feared if an attempt to impose terms is made. Mus solini is about to bluff the League of some fifty nations into a position of non-interfer ence with his plans of conquest. Timely Farm Questions Answered At State College QUESTION: -What is the best method (or curing meal? ANSWER:? There are two principal methods advocated in North Carolina?th? brine cure and the dry salt cure, either ot which is satisfactory. Common salt is the oasis of all meat cur ing. In both cures sugar is some times used to give the meat a better flavor and to counteract the action of the salt by keepin g lhe muse es soft, where salt makes them hard. Formulas for both the briue cure and the dry salt cure are given in Extension Fold er 31 on "Killing aud Curing Meat on the Farm". Copies of tIris folder may be had free upon application to the Agricultural Editor at Stale College. QUESTION:?What proportion of birds should I give my tenant who is raising poultry for me on shares? ANSWER:?Where all the baby chicks, epuipinent and feed are furnished the tenant should re ceive about one-seventh of the birds or an equal amouut of the sale price. From 14 to 18 percent of the sales is a good range for labor payment. To make any profit from this arrangement, only good healthy chicks should be turuiehed the tenant. Goo 1 brooder houses should also be 1 rovided as well as a properly balanced ration. T h e tenant should have a good knowledge of feeding and care of growing chicks together with some know ledge of poultry dise ises. QUESTION:?What reduction does the new cotton program re quire and what is the adjustment figure? ANSWER:?The minimum ad juatinent for 1036 requires a 30 percent reduction below the estab lished base acreage. However, producers will have the privilege of reducing to a maximum of 45 percent below the base. The ad justment payment will be five cents a pound of the average yield of liut cotton on' land with held from production uuder con tract. This adjustment will be made in one payment.

Hunting Elephants for Tusks, Regular Business The precious white gold of Kenya? elephant s tusks?is protected by go* eminent regulations in South Africa, and, like all lucrative trades, has its unlawful and bootlegging channels. It is for this treasure that natives risk their lives and penetrate the tall grass jubgles and forest of the Interior, tumbling elephants by the thousands in the dust. The tusk hunters are divided into two groups, according to a representa tive of the American Express company ?the killers and dead Ivory gatherers, the latter industry being the great mys tery to the white man. "Dead ivory" is supposed to be derived from dead elephants or skeletons and though 2,000 elephants die a natural death every year in the Jungles and forests of Africa, It is an astonishing fact that few big game hunters or explorers have ever discovered a dead elephant The natives declare that elephants have a secret death place and aro highly superstitious in revealing ele phants' cemeteries. It is from these mysterious cemeteries, which the dy ing elephant is said to stagger to, that the illicit traffic in Ivory goes on. Many Zulu tribesmen, who lie in the deep grass or attack a lone elephant in their crescent moon formation, use the mystic cemetery source as a blind. However, not only do the natives be lieve in the Ivory Heaven, but big game hunters are human enough to hope that some day they will dis cover an Ivory hoard. The tusks which are of priceless value comprise the upper incisor tooth grown to enormous proportions, the lower half or three-quarters being solid. Dogs Bred Down to Make Them Fit as House Peta Two dogs came over with the Pil grims In the Mayflower and landed 111 Plymouth in 1G20, writes A. B. Mae donuld In the Kansas City Star. In tha more than three centuries that hare passed since then, dogs have multi plied and kept right up with the In crease and spread of the white race on tiiis continent For many years the dog in this "country was a hunter or a watch dog, nnd lired outdoors. But with the in crease of cities and towns the bulk of our population crowded into them, nnd the dog became largely a pet Us ing in the home, looked upon as a member of the family. This led to the widespread breeding down of the large dogs of the out doors to make them small enough for house pets, and also to the importa tion of the smaller dogs of Europe, such as the German dachshund, so low In height that women of the house hold often called him an "under-the bureau" dog. Professional dog trainers say that the two most Intelligent breeds of dogs a re the German shepherds and the French poodles. For more than 2,000 years poodles, popularly called "French," although they probably originated in Germany, were the trained dogs seen In the strolUng shows throughout Europe. British Postal Serrica Old The British postal serTice may be traced back some 450 years. In 1482 King Edward IV appointed relays of horsemen to carry the royal dispatches, thus enabling letters to trarel 200 miles In two days. "Quo Vadis** "Quo Yadis" is a Latin phrase which Is literally translated as "Whither c.oest Thou?" These are the words addressed to Peter by the Lord when the former was about to forsake Rome.
