C. ?e<oiiil cUm nail matter. The work on putting in a water main on Halifax road is progressing nicely ami will be quite a convenience to - the people along this street as well as a much needed pro tection against lire. While this work is in progress and half of the street blocked by the improvement something should be done to stop cars from parking and stopping along the other half of the street, making passage diffi cult and dangerous. Now that it seems possible to get relief labor, and that there are so many needing this work, it occurs to us this is an opportune time far the town of Louisburg to eon template providing additional streets leading out of town in each direction. It would->not only be a" great convenience to be able to leave or enter town over more than one street from either direction but would be of real necessity in an emergency. Besides this it would open up sub-divisions that would enable more people to. buy and build homes. All of this extension could be done so much cheaper now than ever before and may be in a long time in the future. Quite a bit of dissatisfaction on the part of farmers at the tobacco acreage allottments has been in evidence in Louisburg the past week. It seemed that no one had realized the extent of a cut in crop and when the reduc ed acreage was announced many were left without a sufficient amount of crop to make living expenses. This reduction was not understood bv a large number of far mers who had heard so many arguments to the contrary. It is a serious situation and it is hdped it will work out to the benefit of all. The committees had a hard prob lem, but have done their work well. They could not give allottments without the allottments to give. Pos sibly the statement of County Agent Morgan in this is sue wherein he states no one is bound by this allottment. but can plant all they wish, may be some relief. It is hoped that the distribution of the poundage may not raise another serious question. ? HKAITH DEPARTMENT ? ? ? ? ? ? Dr. R. F. Yarborongl), County ? ? Health Officer ? ???**?***** ? Dr. R. F.

Pulmonary Tuberculosis, or \ Consumption as it is frequently called, is a germ born contagious disease. It is believed (by many of the laity) to be hereditary, but this is not true.

Statistics show nine out of ten adults in this country have been infected with Tubercu losis. The vast majority never be come diseased. Bailey Asks Full Study Of Imports Washington. ? Senator Bailey (D-NC) requested Secretary Hull Thursday to investigate the "whole subject" of imports of farm products into the United States.
