Liquor Stores The necessary number of pe titioners here have been secur ed and the County Board of Elections has called an electiou for Tuesday, June 29th, to give the voters the opportunity to say whether Alamance County shall or shall not have liquor stores where liquor may be legally sold. North Carolina has had opeu barrooms and "bone dry" pro hibition, dispensaries, and pro hibition under an amendment to the constitution of the Unit ed States, but, as a matter of fact, has never been dry only in theory. Mention is made of an organ ized effort, which has not been perfected, to work against ap proval of liquor stores. The liquor question has more than one side from an econo mical standpaint, depending on the angle from which one looks at it. Liquor is produced legally in the United States and pays the government a revenue tax. It is sold in this State and pays no tax, except in the few coun ties in which the sale is legal ized. In other counties the "bootlegger" sells it and pays no tax. In the bootleg territory, whatever of crime is charged to liquor, the tax payer foots the bills for apprehending and con victing the law breakers. National prohibition was a failure and the constitutional amendment was repealed. State lawB have failed to attain their purpose, and now it is proposed to try other means ? through liquor stores ? to control the ?ale. At no time, under any law that has been passed, has there been a time when the liquor thirsty could not get what he wanted. If liquor stores are favored and opened, it is as certain as day followB night, that there will not be lees drinking and drunkeness, but more, we verily believe. Liquor stores are but another experiment to manage an exist ing evil that can be combatted only through the preaching, teaching and practising of tem perance. Today is the 162nd anniver- I 6a ry of the Mecklenburg Decla ration of Independence, if the history hooka are correct. Yean ago the date was a big day for Charlotte and the occa sion of a flood of patriotic elo quence. In these latter years the day has been practically overlooked; that is, has not had the prominence it deserved. There needs to be a big revival of patriotism "lest we forget" the struggle and sacrifice of the founders that their children and children's children might have greater freedom and better liv ing conditions. On this anni versary Senator Reynolds is the orator at the dedication of the municipal stadium, but Senator Reynolds, no doubt, after pay ing his compliments to the new stadinm and those who backed the enterprise, will avail him of a fine opportunity to say something about the Declara tion and extol the brave men who dared to do it. Her Royal Highness The Duke of Windsor aud j Mrs. VVallis Warfield, (the Simpson has been dropped) have fixed June 3rd, his father's birth date, for the date of their marriage. They will be mar ried in France without the pres ence of any of the royalty, lin mediately upon their marriage Mrs. Warfield will become ''Her Royal Highness" and the rank ing 8tb lady of the realm. Edward was deteriuiued aud won. His family stood with him against the Church aud the Ministry. Perhaps there was p licy in acceding to the demands of Ed ward. It is possible for him. strong- willed and popular, to exercise an influence behind the curtains. Looks Like Failure Mr. Roosevelt's Court reor- 1 g&nization program appears to | be crumbling. He went off on a fishing jaunt. Almost his { last words on leaving were "no 1 compromise." With a lit'le ' time to think, calmly and de- ! liherately, the judiciary commit- j tee made up its mind and re- 1 ported adversely on the bill. In the meantime Justice Willis Van Devanter, 78-year-old dean of the court, prepared his re signation to be effective June 2nd. The resignation and the ad vene report at the same time was a jolt. An adversely re ported bill has a hard time ge ting by. Besides there was no evidence of a growing demand for the proposed reorganization. The way appears clear now for the opposition to do what ever is reason ible aud leave the Supreme Court an untrammel led, independent branch of the Government and not the mouth piece of anyone man or group.

Richmond, W Debts and Economy Br J< E. Joan T Washington, 0 . C? May if. J7? | The national debt has now reached |S5, 000,900 ooo for the first time in history. On Capitol Hill in Wash ington legislstive work is almost at a standstill. "The/ demands on Congress for appropriation* would increase the public debt by extrs billions. If Congressmen hsd the nerve that its members claim to possess they would promptly kill the Supreme Court scheme thst President Roosevelt laid in their laps, Congress actuslly is not in favor of the plan to pack the Court. Congress, under-the-hide, would like to reduce the public debt, practice economy snd meet the budget? but Congress haant started any socH program thus far. The large cities are still crying out for Federal relief. They have tremendous power. And they know how to lobby} Evidently the bal ance of the country wants to con trol its own relief affairs. That'* the news? as it appears in Wash ington. A bl- party bloc is gaining strength in Congress, and influential demo crats and republicans are back o f proposals, such ss the bill by sens I tor King, democrat ot Utah ? a ' measure that would dismantle WPA as ? federal project and sppropri | aate about 1850,900,000 to which the State* would contribute between ? to M percent for relief work, to b? carried on by local authgritie*. One bears a good deal in Wash ington these day a to the effect that the people in local communities feel that '"emergency" relief days are over, and that the ?y?tem should not be made '"permanent." After all, approximately two thirds of ail member* of the house and Senate come from districts outside the metropolitan sections, and they can represent their con stituencies any time they want to live op to their pledges to the voters who elected them. I Question? What is the fcest time to apply nitrogen to corn and cotton aa a aide dressing? ( Answer? Applications Mhould be made to corn when it is about ! knee high and to cotton immediate ly after chopping. Mud* of the fer tilizing Value la loat when fate ap plications are made. Apply the nitrogen as early as possible so as to get all the fertilizing value. Late applications may delay the ' maturity of cotton and make the crop more susceptible to boll wee v ' 11 damage. With corn, late appllca | tions will increase the plant growth, but will not increase the yield of grain. Question? At what age should chicks be fed grain? Answer? Thia depend* largely on the mash fed. It a combined start er and growing mash is used, the scratch feed should be started at the fourth week. Where a 20 per cent starter mash' is used, the grain feeding should begin from the 6th to the tenthl day. There are, how ever, some '"all mash" systems of feeding withwhich no scratch sup plement Is fed. Most commercial mash feed tags have directions for feeding on the back and these I directions should be carefully fol lowed (or best results. Question? How can I keep the terrapin bugs out of my garden? Answer? Applications of a Rote n one-Talc dust containing on e per cent of rotenone win give good con trol of thia insect. Sprinkle suf ficient dust to cover the planta thoroughly and repeat every week as long as it is necessary for 1 control. Applications should be made after every rain. A dust con- , taining three-quarters of one per- j cent of rotenone can also be used, ' but this requires very liberal appli cation*. Rotenone is not poisonous to humans. Now I Lay Me The miracle of history is the way little things are remembered bfad great things are forgotten. The deep writings of Cardinal Newman are passing but '"Lead Kindly, Light" is immortal. We are now reminded that the childhood prayer '"Now I lay me down to sleep" has a his tory. Its author Eugene H. Pollen was born ISO years ago, March , 1837. People do not like "?'If I should die before I wake" and many at tempts have beeq made to improve on the original but the old version is tenacious and the child mind is j not afraid of death. In commenting on this little prayer William Lyon Phelps teds a beautiful story. "Billy Sunday," he says, "told me that when his little girl was obliged to have an operation in the hospital Just beifore receiving the anes thetic, she asked the doctor, 'What ' are you going to do to me? And ' the doctor said, 'My dear, lam going to operate, and then you will be well again, and can run and play as you uaed to do,' 'Well, what is going to happen now?' 'Why, darl ing, we are going to put you to sleep, so you will not feel any pain.' Then the child aaid, 'But before going to sleep I always say rov prayer!' and in the presence of the physicians, internes, orderlies and nurses, the litttle girl climbed down, *?t on her knees on the floor and said aloud: "?Now I lay me down to sleep ; I pray the Lord my soul to keep. H I should die before I wake I pray the Lord ray soul td take.'" ?Banner. Rocky Mt. Red Sox, Durham Bulls Serin of Three Night Game*, at Durham, Starting 24th Durham, May 1?? Responding to the expert handling of Manager Red O'MaQey, the Durham Bulls, away to aa uncertain start, are rapidly climbing in the Piedmont League rac?v 0*M alley has whipped his youngsters into a fast, fighting 1 aggregation, babbling over with ? ?pirit and the will to win. < Pushing the lead?ra (or hitting < honor* and setting the pace in stol en bases' with over JO, the Bulls I are pleasing the tans with their I display of vivacious hitting and i leg power. !

Only a tew games separate the first and seventh place clubs, all of which means the pennant chase is wide open. Returning to the Durham park Monday night, May 24, the Bulls will engage the Rocky Mount Red Sox in a three-game nocturnal ser- ' les. The starting time for night 1 games has been moved up to 8 :15 o'clock, President Paul Florence an- j nounced.

His best playing days were spent with the Chicago White Sox, and he was In two world's series with this team and another with the Washington Senators in 1924. He has also played with the Boston Red Sox has had managerial experience i n the American Association, the in ternational and New York-Penn sylvania Leagues. This series will mark the first Durham appearance rif the popular little manager. I I'll Say It Again By J. E. Jones (This article wag first printed in 1923) Running water is an inexhausti ble resource, t lii'ki the exhausti ble products of coal mines, it does rot weigh down steel rails and freight cars to reach the point at which it dues :t? work. It does better than that. Running water commands! millions of horsepower of electric energy. It loads the wires at the river, or stream, and fire-by-wire travels noiselessly, steadily and certain- I nly to every point where it is needed in the convenience^ of home life, or in the affairs of industry. Electricity built cities and Im proved civilization. But electricity with the aid of water power and with power transmission lines has already undertaken a far bigger task than anything previously cred ited to its marvelous influence. The comforts and advantages of the cities are ail becoming availaolie to people who live in the country.

Industrial pro- C greea ia eaaentlal to maintain the ?yatem under which we live. The land values are too high, the renta > too expensive, the taxea too bur- S densome, and the physical restraints 5 and disadvantages are too many i in the city districts.

What is the best con- j trol for cabbage worms? Answer? Rotenwne dust will, in all probability, give the best con- ] trol. The dust should contain 75 ( percent of the rotenone and the t first application should be made Just as fcoon as you see the first small white butterfly in the cab bage field. DuBt as often as worms are found and be sure and get the , dust down into the center of the plants. This dust will a&o control bean beetles and should be applied when the first cluster of eggs are found on the under side of the bean leaves. For bean beetles the dust should be applied under the leaves and not on top. .?? Question? Is there any cure for bumblefoot in chickens? Answer? Where the trouble is not too severe it is possible to cure it by making an incision Jn the injured foot and carefully remov ing the infected material. The area should then be sterilized with iodine and bandaged and the biro kept closely confined while the wound is healing. However, unless the bird 1b of exceptional value n o cure should be attempted as these at tempts in the majority Of cases are unsuccessful. Question? When is the best time to treat sheep for stomach worms? Answer? Drenching for stomach worms should begin about June 1. As a usual thing one or two treat ments are sufficient for mature animals, but in cases of severe in festation both the lambs and ewes should be drenched every two to four weeks until frost. Keep the animals to be treated off feed for 24 hours before and off feed and water for five hours after drench ing. The copper sulphate solution Is most generally used for stomach worms, but the nicotine sulphate has also proven valuable, especial ly where tape worms are present The nicotine sulphate solution i s made by mixing one-balf ounce o I 40 percent nicotine sulphate (Black Leaf 40) and one quart of water. Mature sheep should receive two to three ounces of this solution at each treatment and lambs from one to two ounces.
