Every time the business men of
Loulsburg get together In the Interest
of the town something good comes
from It- Lets meet oftener.

Don't 'forget that there will be an

Gov. Walton of Oklahoma, says If
the Legislature will pass an Antl-Ku
Klux bill that he recommends he will
get out. It may be possibble that he
will get out without their passing his
bill.
Only a few new names have been
mentioned in connection with the trus
tees for Loulsburg District the past
week that we have heard of. Among
them are Messr'o. T. W. Watson and
H. C. Taylor.
It Is exceedingly gratifying to see
how the business men and tobaccon
ists are cooperating to make Louls
burg market tnelnost profitable to
the farmer. The farmers are beginning
to appreciate it and we believe will
show their appreciations.
Everybody li delighted at the open
ing of |$e High School In Gold Mine ?
Sandy Creek District The Board ot
Education Is to be congratulated upon
this venture. The children In this dis
trict deserve a fair chance at an edu
cation and from the opening It looks
that all they were waiting for was
an opportunity.
It Is a pity that Governor Morrison
has made the mistake to attempt to
force negro lab$r upon the people of
Mitchell CountjL If the people ot
this county do apt want negroes with
in their midst and have succeeded In
living without them for so long, it is
unwUe to insist that they shall have
them. Even the negro himself is fool
ish to attempt to Invade the territory,
hut in the case of convicts he can't
help It, , It Is to be hoped that Gov.
Morrison will withdraw the negro
convicts and guards from Mitchell
County.
CLEAN UP THE POTATO STORAGE
HOUSE
Cared Potatoes Should Be Profitable
This Year.
Raleigh, Oct. 8. ? Sweet potato stor
age houses properly handled should
make money this year, as theie Is a
decrease of about a hundred million
bushels In the Irish potato crop, and
also a decided decrease in the sweet
potato crop, reports C. D. Matthews,
Chief of the Division ofHorticulture
for the State College and Department
of Agriculture.
In order to make money, however,
Mr. Matthews says that the crop
muBt be properly handled in the field,
put In storage and cured according
to approved methods. Many dollars
are needlessly lost because the grow
er Is not willing to learn from the
experience of others but wants to ex
periment for himself on operations
that have already been standardized.
"The Btorage house should be clean
ed out and disinfected thoroughly In
order to get rid of the numerous stor
age-rot germs left there from the
previous crop," says Mr. MatthewB.
"A solution of formaldehyde made by
mixing l pint of formalin (.1 per
cent) in 10 to 15 gallons of water
makes a good disinfectant with which
to spray the interior of the house.
"TTie crates or containers should be
purchased and delivered before the
crop Is dug In order to cause no delay
at digging time. The Btandard bush
el crate 12x12x15 Is best for storage
and shipment. A crate of the Owasso
type should be used for storage while
any durable efficient, economical and
attractive crate Is all right for ship
ment,
"The crop should be harvested be
tore frost as a frosted potato will not
keep. Also, the potatoes should be
mature before being harvested. To
test for maturity cut the potato and
If the Jalce turns greenish In color lq
about three minutes It Is not mature.
"Where storage honses are not own
ed on the farm and storage space la
available in the community houses,
arrangements should be made to
store the crop tlicfre as a cold winter
can h* expected and only those pota
toes properly stored and cured will
keep successfully . "

? "Strk-kUai'ii Battery Omlta." ?
OWNERS SELDOM KNOW BATTER
IES.
The battery being an fclectro chem
ical and not a mechanical part makes
it hard for the are rage man to un
derstand unlesa a great deal ot study.
Is ^erclsed. The average man thinks
that a battery la a place to (tore elec
tricity, bat It is not the case. In tact,
there Is not any electricity in a bat
tery, even when it is fully charged.
Bat there is' electriclal energy that
>ets the electricity In motion. The elec
tricity Is already In yonr lights, start
er. horn, etc., bnt it is in a dead state,
it cannot work until It is set in mo
tion by the source of electriclal ener
gy.
To get the most service out of a
battery great care must be taken at
It. It must bfe fed not only with wataf,
but with electriclal current as well.
The amount ot food that a battery
requires depends upon the amount ot
electriclal energy that Is being taken
out. The generator is to furnish this
food and it must be set correctly or
it may ruin the battery.
Factories no longer wait for ma
chinery to break down, thus tying up
production and causing great cost,
but they have men that are paid big
salaries whose duty is to make re
gular inspections to And threatened,
trouble in time to correct it before
the whole factory Is tied up. The
same should apply to a battery It it
is kept In good condition it will work
when called upon to do. but if It 1?
not kept In good condition, ho* can
It work when It Is needed most?
It can be truly said that there are
more batteries Vuined by neglect thar.
there are that wear out. Why? Be
cause the users do not understand
them, and do not understand the care
that. ? hould be given them. M<>ny
batteries are ruined by the genera
tors charging too much for the amount
of d:nlng that Is being don*; nntl
t'.iere are many so-called battery mt-n
who ilon't know the cause of ,'. They
don't know that when they open a bat
tery and the plates are buckied and
shorted what caused them to buckle
or warp. Lots and lots of times a min
has gone into a battery service station
land had hisj?ttery repaired at a big
cost which came from neglect only
Many times a battery is recharged
only because the generator Is not
charging enough to put back as much
as Is being drawn out of it. which
could easily be remedied, If the user
only knew how. Then there are many
times they are ruined by not having
enough water to cover the plates;
sometimes this is the fault of the
user's Ignorance and sometimes it In
his carelessness. But It all Is expen
sive to the operator.
