Safety Conference
On May 20-21 the 8th An
nual Statewide Safety Confer
ence will be held in Winston
Salem, Gov. Hoey opening and
making initial address.
The conference will cover the
field of industrial life as well as
all modes of travel and trans
portation. In all a higher de
gree of safety is the aim fur
those using the device as well
as the public.
When one speaks of safety,
naturally the operation of auto
mobiles is the first thought, but
it must be remembered that
there is more or less hazard in
the operation of every mechani
cal device. The Conference is
to cover all.
As a curb, all cannot follow
the suggestion of the California
college president, Dr. C. F.
Cheverton, in regard to auto
mobiles ? incarcerate them 10,
30 or 60 days as a means of
punishing the violators of the
law, ihe same as disarming a
man likely to make harmful
use of a gun.
Pie With A Twang
From reports down Raleigh
way the distribution of political
favors is causing some discor
dant notes.
The supporters of "Sandy"
Graham in the first primary
feel that they are not getting a
square deal, in that, had they
not rallied to Mr. Hoey in the
second primary, another than
Mr. Hoey would have been gov
ernor; and now that they help
ed in a time of dire need, when
favors are being distributed,
they are left dangling in the
air. The treatment seems to
be making a sore spot ? uatural
ly it would, when and if over
tures were made.
Mr. Hoey is at the throttle
now, but there are enough of
those who were not with him
in the first run-off to make his
going a little precarious. Faith
unkept in politics is no more ex
cusable than elsewhere.
George VI Crowned
The crowning of George VI
in London Wednesday was a
world event. It was witnessed
by millions. Thousands from
all quarters of the globe flocked
to London to look on. The cer
emony went off without a hitch.
It would have been the
crowning day of Eld ward VII,
had he not preferred the love of
Wallis Warfield to being King.
During the event he was in se
clusion in France, "listening
in", but doing nothing to mar
the brilliant event for his
brother.
Edward's wedding day is now
a matter of interest. The Brit
ish government is opposed to
the royal family having any
part in it. The family think
and feel otherwise. Blood is
thicker than water.
Exceedingly Scarce
Speaking about the appoint
ments to office being made by
Gov. Hoey, the Roxboro Couri
er naively observes; "You will
find men in office who have not
served well and faithfully his
party just about as scarce as
pereperation on the face of the
WPA. workers."
Tragedy of the Hindenberg
Last Thursday evening as the
great Zeppelin Hindenberg was
settling down for anchorage at
Lakehurst Field, New Jersey,
she burst into flames, and fell
to earth a burning, roaring in
ferno.
She had aboard 36 passengers
and 61 members of the crew.
The fatalities are about equally
divided between pas&engers and
crew. One person was caught
and lost his life by the falling
craft. Th<! death toll aggregated
35. The Hindenberg had made
around 20 trips over the Atlan
tic, and she was considered
proof against weather condi
tions. Bu' she floated, filled
with inflammable gas, and this
was her Nemesis.
A number of other lightei
than-air queens of the sky ways
have come to grief, and with
appalling fatalities, but this is
the first Qerman-oper.ited air
ship to have had a passenger
fatality.
Though nothing man made
is indestructible, yet uudaunted
he starts over again, and other
dirigibles will be built, perhaps
safer than any heretofore pro
duced.
T h o President is back in
Washington frotn his fishing
holiday in the Gulf of Mexico,
but finds his court reorganizing
plans no nearer a settlement
than when he left. With su
preme courage, or something
else, he refuses any compro
mise. The fact is Congress rub
ber-stamped everything he pro
posed for four years and it
"spoiled" him. He will not be
permitted to remake in a year
the fundamentals which real
statesmen spent years in m*k
ing and that have stood the test
for a century and a half. .
The Pasiing of a Landmark
To make room for the new
Chevrolet saleroom ami garage
under construction next to the
Oaeida Mills on W. Harden street,
one oi the oldest dwellings in Gra
ham wag razed. We believe it
was known as a McStlurray home.
However that may be, at one time
it served as a manse for the Pres
byterian church, being immedi
ately across the street from the
church. Back in the early 80's
and earlier, Rev. B W. Mebane,
the then pastor of the church re
sided there. As time rolls on,
the old latdmarks vauish, until
now there remains less than a
dozen of Ihem in the original or
modified forms as they were in
antebellum days.
The Making of Skeptics
I?it any wonder that there are
skeptic*? They said the Hinden
burg was '"diiater-proof" ; the
Titanic was '"unsinkable" ; Amer
ica was '"too proud to fight" 1 n
the world war; Mr. Hoover's elec
tion would assure continuance of
"?prosperity"; Mr. Hoey couldn't
be elected governor of North
Carolina over opposition of '"rad -
ical" Democrats; Italy wouldn't
dare rape and subject Ethiopia
for fear of other European pow
er*; that Goliath would surely
chop Uttle David Into t mince
meat ; that Edward would never
quit the thronO of the British em
pire for a woman ; and that
Brother Noah would never need a
boat,? Greensboro Recqrd,
A new milk route, started in
Polk county less than ten months
ago, ia now picking up about
sixty gallons a day from thirteen
farmers.
America'a first globe map fac
tory was founded by Jamea Wil
son at Branfort, Vt., in 1813.
The heart of an ordinary adult
pumps about one gallon of blood
a minute.
Timber wolves sometimes have
been broken and trained to draw
sleds.
Tea is used as a drink by a
greater number of people than
any other beverage in the world.
: Colder Months Best
To Grow H?y Crops
j Succesa usually smile* on the
dairy farmer who grows his hay
crop during the winter and early
spring months, according to F. R.
Farnham, extension dairy specialist
at State College.
i This plan, to a large extent,
overcomes failures often encounter
ed due to a lack of rainfall when
summer grown hay has been de
pended upon.
Farnham aaya farmers have found
that winter cereal hay crops pro
vide an excellent roughage if cut
at the right time.
! Most authorities now agree tha>.
the correct time to harvest small
grains aiid legumes found in the
| mixture for cereal hay crops cornea
when this hay contains the largest
1 quantity of digestible nutrients.
I Therefore, says Farnham, It has
been established that the stage of
maturity will determine the nutri- j
tive value of the hay when cut. I
When plants are permitted to be
come over- ripe, the fibre content in- 1
creases and the protein decreases. '
Cows do not relish over-ripe hay
of this type if It has been stored
over a period of sev?ral months,
and will not produce as much milk
when fed such hay.
For winter hay crops, such as
oats, wheat, barley, vetch, and
Austrian winter peas, the bloom is
the best indicator knowq for time
of cutting. Harvest the hayt at the
end of the bloom period, Farnham
advises.
When harvested at this time,
the hay i& palatable, high In pro
tein, and will provide valuable
roughage for dairy cows.
Old Age Pension
About the last notoriety achieved
by Dr, Townsend was on the day
he was sentenced to jail for con
tempt of a Committee of Congress.
What hnppened about that sentence
nobody knows. Out the good old
doctor never saw the inside of the
jail, and it is not likely that he
ever will. Imprisonment for him
is apparently as remote as is pos
sible favoraole action by Congress
concerning his plan. To all appear
ances the scheme is dcfunct.
In passing it is of interest to
realize that victory for old-age pen
sions is no longer a matter of
doubt. The whole political machi -
nery of the Government appears to
favor such a system of pensioning,
to include everybody who is not
self-sustaining beyond the age o f
sixty-five

A COMMON PHILOSOPHY
Roses are to cheer awl not to
scorn.
Love is not to pltiy with but to
work with.
The failures of uiost people are
on the inside.
Qod will not coino in until oth
er personalities go out.
Trouble is given to climt? over
and not to sink under.
Some people flit from pleasure
to pleasure as the humming bird
flits from flower to flower.
No one who lives like a fool can
nope to ena use h King.
Untroubled life never realizes
mighty achievements.
The places one goes soon be
come places one stays.
When a vocation is made too
easy, society will not receive the
mosl good.

Encourage Home Production
Says Senator Ellender
Urges Farmers to Spend Money At
Home
Id a recent message to farmers
U. S, stcator AUen J. Ellender of
Louisiana, member of the Senate
Committee on Agriculture and
Foieatry. points out that there is
np available source of nitrogen
manufactured in this country? in
Virginia, and further that part of
the raw material required in th'e
manufacture of American made ni
trate of soda Is produced in Louis
iana. Ho says
'"Formerly all of our nitrates had
to re importeed. For thi? we Bent
large suns of money abroad each
year. By using the domestic nitrate
of soda, commonly known as the
"Arcadian", can now keep this
money in cur country, em
ploy our own people in its pro
duction, and thereby encourage i n -
Justly at home.
'"AS the price Ot all nitrate o f
soda is the same and as field tests
it cur own ey peridental stations
show oce to be as good as the
other. I urge our people to use
the domestic made product."
Women Interested in
Radio Recipes. |
Farm women are always interest
ed in timely recipes, specialists of |
the Home Demonstration Division '
at State College have discovered.
As an example, nearly 100 re
quests for preserving strawberries
came in after Mrs. Cornelia C.
Morris, extension economist in food
| conservation and marketing, gave
a talk on the Carolina Farm Fea
tures program over Station WPTF,
Kaleigh, in which she mentioned
several recipes.
With the strawberry season flour
ishing, farm homemakers are in
terested in preserving some of the
fruit for use during those months
when fruits and berries are scarce.
Mimeographed directions for con
serving the berries were sent to
all those who had requested the
recipes.
Mrs. Morris and others in the
department expressed themselves as
being well pleased with the res
ponse which has been shown by
farm women to the weekly home
demonstration program heard each I
Thursday.

qour cotton
JIUSTj
THERE was more cotton rust in the South las!;
year than ever before reported. Have you
checked on the fertilizer you applied at planting
and made sure that it contained enough potcsh
to carry your cotton through to a full crop and
the profits you expect this year? It is not too late
to add the extra potash recommended by ex
periment stations to control rust and reduce wilt.
Use a nitrogen-potash top-dresser which will
apply 50-100 pounds of muriate of potash per
acre and make the application immediately
after chopping. Consult your county ageni
or experiment station on your soil require
ments. See your fertilizer manufacturer or
dealer about nitrogen-potash top-dressers.
