The Chamber- of Commerce .after arranging for one of the best tobacco markets in .the State li now going to attempt to arrange the best cotton tiarket ia the Sate. Let everybody help it get results. - , It now looks that State Salary and Wage fty 'sat soon pot oat pt com mission taxes will ~hnve-ta7be raised. They granted another big increase in salaries the past week and created several new Jobs. It looks like it Is time t?e people were taking hold of imental affairs and stop fol lowing a few landers, who are aL. wags playing politics. ' The State's debt Is given as ?41.M per capita. Inother words it amounts to $42.03 for every man, woman and ehiid in the State. This could have been reduced had the Salary and "Wage Commission allowed the ? State fidnds to accumulate and applied these accummulationS to. the discharge ot the debit. But the Department heads had shown an autogoniatlc spirit to the Commission and to smooth things over and let "everybody" be satisfied they granted increases to Insure the spending of all funds that otherwise might have been saved to reduce the 8bite's debt or the tax burden. The Town Commissioners meet to night. Why not give some considera tion to beautifying the streets In the business part of town. An appeal to the business men will get results ptovided equality is practiced. Lett have the tin houses, chicken coops, and storage houses moved from t*<s side walks. Peopl^ from all over the coun'ry pass through our'town sow. Will they be attracted by the beauty and cleanliness of onr business streets? Or does It. make any differ ence what Impression is left on their minds about our town. Mr. Town Commissioners, by reason of your election and qualification to office, the responsibility is up to'you. Your de cision will be final. What will you I do? r The Louisburg Chamber of Com merce has taken a big forward step to boost the town when it decided on Tuesday night to spend around $l,S00 to advertise Louisburg. The wisest part of the plan is that it is SO ar ranged that the advertising will ex tend over a twelve months period and will not be a "wet weather^' product. By this means splendid results will be-received. Every business man In town should lose no time in making a liberal contribution to this fund and every clerk or employe* can well a*drd to give assistance. The fact that it will boost the tgjrn and there by increase the business will make matters better lor all, clerks and em ployees included. Lets all put otiir shoulder to the wheel and push vig orously, thereby letting the Chamber of Commerce and its committees know we appreciate what they are trying to do, * " Jul 'V ? -??

Donaghey at Uttle Rock has written letters to lead; ng and representative bankers, agrh :Dlturists, and business men in the :otton centres of the cotton producing itates. In an effort to interest those irbo look with favor upon. Federal Farm Aid, and bring together these orces before the extra '""session Qt Congress convenes the" coming Oct?

H.'hl Mr, Ponaghey says be believes that If the' South had joined heartily "ijrith he West In support of the Mil, it soul<f have passed and would now le a law,'because with the moral sup port of the South and Weet jdtned, he members of Congress who oppos ed the measure could have been won >ver fb its support and thereby a ma iority of Senate and Congress suf Jcient to overcame the (president's reto would have resulted. It is practically sure that an extra tesalon of Congress will be called parly in October of the present year,1 and it Is also reasonably sure that' farm relief will be Included in the mil as one of the measures to be actJ sd uoon. The West Is already organized and ready to pnt np a fight for some ?onable measure' to bring federal aid to the Impoverished agricultural in-. Jus try of this country, and Mr. Do naghey hopes to see the South get together and help to fight for a law to aid 'and ' protect the agrtcdttarflt Interests of this section with special reference to the cotton crop. ' In the unofficial reports, the presi dent is said to have Indicated that he would include in his call, in addi tion to flood relief, a measure to bring' about relief for over-burdened farm4' ers, and that seems to be an admis sion by the president that some sort of relief is necessary. ? Yet with ail the admissions that Federal Aid is necessary to put agri culture on8its feet. It is quite sure that there will be tremendous oppo-' sition on the part of stock exchange gamblers and mis-guided business men who regard the ootton crop an- especial paw&J^jr. the speculator and 'these men' writ ' ifb In futures what they can to divide and dlscoui^ age those who favor farm aid, to the end that no measure that is present ed will have the undivided, solid sup. port nod endorsement of the agricul tural Interests..* And that Is why Mr. bonaghey Is urging? thoSs In.-the SrircU who favor Federal AlJf to g* together, sb that a measure .tnay te drawn that wilt have ike solid and unanimous suppojf of farmers and friends of and he believes that if that can be accomplished there will be no trouble In passing f TarnP^d Vll In Congreijs ipproval of that wlilrimeef the approval of the president hnd briag the desired relist to farmers of all sections of the conn. y. .*;? , ???

Letters from all over the' United States were received by .the National Farm News and'con sidered by the judges but the short pithy letter from Mr. Vaughan was adjudged the best and he was given Arst prise ot $100. The extension workers of State Col lege feel flattered that thruout his letter Mr. Vaughan followed the eome lines ot Ifcought upon which the agri cultural program for this state is be ing bnilded. His letter and the actl vtttes of the extension force# are In perfect harmony.
