TUESDAY, SEPT. 23RD
75 PER CENT THIS YEAE
Every member can get 75 per cent of bankers'
valuation if h wants it.
Our Association makes first advance of 50 per
cent of bankers' valuation, and the N. C. Agri
cultural Credi Corporation will loan through
local banks one-half the first advance (or 25 per
cent of bankers' valuation), making 75 per cent
right after delivery.
DON'T BE FOOLED
Don't be fooled by rumors about
recent court decisions. Any good
lawyer will tell you that there is
nothing to the idea that members
are not required to deliver because
final settlement has not yet been
made on 1922 crop.
LAST CHANCE FOR "OUTSIDERS"
The Association will accept no new members
after opening day in Central North Carolina.
Outsiders in the Old Belt markets, which are
listed above, have until September 17 to sign
up, because of previous announcement that
these Old Belt markets would not open until
September 16. The closing of the membership
books applies only to the 1924 crop.
THE HIGHEST CASH ADVANCES EVER PAID BY THE ASSOCIATION ARE BEING RECEIVED BY ITS MEM
BERS THIS YEAR. BRING A LOAD OF YOUR TOBACCO NEXT TUESDAY AND REALIZE THE GOOD NEWS YOUR

AS THE EDITOR SEES IT
North Dokota'g flour mill and elo
?ator project lost (627,362.82 during
the eleven montha It had been In oper
atlon up to July 1.
The I oh (or June alone was $60,
711.12 and the mill haa actually lost
87 cents on every barrel of flour pro
duced.
This condition exist* In spite of the
tact that the mill Is being operated
at capacity In order to create a greater
output and In an effort! to put It on
a paying basis.
It Is the old story repeated. Public
ownership has been proved a failure,
yet there are still men. who advocate
that It Is an Improvement over prt
vately owned ladustres.
Efficiency la sacrificed for the sake
of lower operating coots and the tine
hand of politics works ltfc way In to
the detriment of (ha business.
The trio test of any l>?alnees Is
efficiency in management and when
that to loot tlf rough politics con troll
ing the Job*. There Is no how P*
earning ? legitimate profit.
In some states whore the goverfi-.
MOnt ownership forces are seeking to
gain the upper hand, executives of

Mcause of the large salaries they re

capability and usually there Is con
siderable competition for their serv
ices, resulting in large salaries.
Prvately owned business looks for
the best, not the cheapest and public
ownership proponents seek the cheap
est regardless of fitness for the po
sition, because that is the only argu
ment they have.
States that have tried public own
ership of utilities should, be a lesson
for every state that contemplates
such an Experiment.
Mid Western Crops
One fourth of the wealth of the
whole United States is situated in
five mid-western states ? Illinois, In
diana. Iowa, Michigan and Wiscon^
sin.
Middle-west crops are above the
average. Prices are still high. The
world grain crop, is reported to be
short.
Here is a combination of circum
stances that can mean nothing but
prosperity.
The wealth of the middle-west is
largely confined to products of the
soil. The weather started the growing
season poorly, but made amends later
and ihe soil has produced lavishly.
The American farmer should be
looking Into the future with optimism.
And he should be joined by all
other business men, because Just as
the depression in agriculture has
made itself felt in every line, so will
the Improvement be reflected in every
field of business enterprise.
The great trouble with these radio
marriages is tfrie danger of not having
the same wave length.
Make plans at once for exhibiting
at the community, county and state
fairs. - urge specialists of the State
College entciiMon division The most
successful falrB are those which have
exhibits from every community and
with products, nod freaiksh, but which
are carefully selected according to
quality and are the kind desired by
a prospective purchaser,
