Dark five act. corn demonstration during the farm tour in August are as folio*s. First, Ernest Brewer, Siler City R - , ' estimated yield, forty-nine and two fifth bushels per acre; ssecond, Jake T.

Crews, Pittsboro, K. f- D No 1. estimated yield, forty-six and one-third bushels per acre First prize was $3.50, second prize,!s2.so third prize $1.50. The c ? n f- cty as on this five acre demonstration was 250 bushels of corn, or 50 bushels per acre. The yield was considerable higher than estimated by most pai DCs participating in tne content. The report on the final yield of tho five acre nitrate of soda demon stration with cotton conducted by Mr. H. A. Harrington of Merry Oaks has just been received. The five acres made a total of 2449 pounds of lint cotton, or 490 pounds of lint cotton per acre. Considering the very unfav orable season, we feel that Mr. Har rington is to be congratulated on the excellent showing made with this demonstration. Throughout the middie of the field, Mr. Harrington left three rows which received no nitrate of soda. These these rows made 62 pounds of lint cotton, compared with 134 pounds of lint cotton from three rows under which soda was used. Mr. Harrington <3^ DR. J. C.

They seem twice as serious in the dead of night. But there’s one form of comfort on which a mother can always rely; good old Castoria. This pure vegetable preparation can’t harm the tiniest infant. Yet mild as it is. it soothes a restless, fretful baby like nothing else. Its quick relief soon sees the youngster comfortable once mere, back to sleep.

We a ret profit of $78.19 per acre above fertilizer and labor cost on thi !h d e”e o s n u S ns at of n the guessing con fpsts held at this demonstration dur ing our farm tour in August is as follows: First prize, Mr. A. P. Har rino’ton, Merry Oak estimation, uounds of lint cotton on the five acres; second, Mr. E. C. Mims, Merry Oaks, estimation, 2410 pounds lint; third, J. R. Moose, Bonlee, 205( pounds of lint. Mr J. T. Gilliland of Bennett, R. F. D. No. 1, has the following to say about the yield of . co ™ f ing lespedeza: “We hauled 24% loads of corn from a nine acie fie that had lespedeza turned under be fore the corn, besides gatheiing «• sot of seed corn. We shucked out an average load, and it weighed -0 bushels, which would iiiake the tota l yield on the nine acres 490 busneis. Before seeding lespedeza on this land, it averaged 20 bushels to the lespedeza, Mr. Gilliland moie m doubled his yield. • In response to a letter written him regarding the yield of corn fol lowing a one year crop of lespedeza, Mr. John E. Clark of Pittsboro R. D. No. 2 has the following to say: “Our corn following lespedeza made six barrels per acre. This same soil is not capable of producing ovei three barrels of corn to the acre without lespedeza.” The county agent has received a number of reports from various farm ers everyone of which show an in creased yield of not only corn bn cotton as well following lespede.za. Limited space prevents our giving these results. FARM PHILOSOPHY Blessed are they that test their cows for they shall inherit more milk. * * * A bushel of seed corn field selected now may mean a hundred bushels gained in' next year’s yield. * * * Still another form of farm relief consists of stopping the leaks —pre- venting little wastes that total big losses. * * * Frank Farmer says: “I realize that we farmers are at fault in not giving any thoughts to marketing problems until we are ready to sell something. * * * Timid question: Why will a farm er labor hard to produce cotton and then let the bales lie out in the weather to lose value rapidly? * * * Beauties in “the sceneries of the sky” repay us for the faded glory of autumn foliage. CHATHAM WILL HAVE BETTER DAIRY SIRES During the coming year, it is planned to conduct a sale of high class, registered jersey bulls at Siler City. The county agent is making iim colic, or diarrhea, yields to the soothing influence of Castoria. Keep Castoria in mind, and keep a bottle in the house —always. Give a few drops to any child whose tongue is coated, or whose breath is bad. Continue with Castoria until the child is grown! Every drugstore has Castoria; the genuine has Cha&. H. Fletcher’s signature on the wrapper. mb-iut - r»w r*rMCßMg.rua*«a*Ba**gßW*Ba*Mß*«**■ i■— Tffß CHATHAM RECORD. PITTSBORO, N. C. ! doings of j , CHATHAM FARMERS I !

Mor- , row, secretary of the North Carolina Jersey Cattle Club for the selection of these bulls. There will only be a j limited number of individuals in sale, but no bull will be considered for the sale unless he possesses Qam ities which will increase the pro I.*- tion of the native stock. It is planned . to select these bulls from dams and ( sires that have good records • Some three years ago, Mr. W. -ti. Ferguson, J. E. Clark and otners m < the Hickory Mountain community purchased a bull for use on their - herds. These men had just begun the < sale of whole milk, and realized the necessity of raising cattle ot higher ■ production than the ones on hand. 1 Mr. Ferguson reports that some ot • the heifers sired by this bull are fresh, and states that they are pro- i ducing better than their dams. | <s> TIME TO THINK ABOUT SOY BEANS The county agent was recently ciuoted a good price on several cars , of soy beans for immediate shipment. Last year, there was some complaint as to the quality of beans handled, so in order to avoid a repitition of this this year, every car of beans handled here vvill have a federal in spection as to quality and germina tion. The crop seems to be short this year, due to unfavorable weather conditions, and those farmers who are anxious to save money on the price of these beans should get in touch with the county agent before the price goes up.^ LESPEDEZA SEED HARVEST IS SHORT IN UNION AND STANLY COUNTIES Just recently, the county agent write Mr. T. J. W. Broome, county agent of Union County, and Mr. Os car Phillips, county agent of Stanly County in reference to the seed har vest of lespedeza, the price, quality, etc. Both of thes mn statd that the crop was short, due to some of it being cut for hay and unfavorable weather conditions prevailing at har vest time. It is their opinion that it will be best to obtain our seed now, or as soon after harvest as is pos sible. ************** : WANT ADS : *************** WANTED—Eggs. R. J. Moore & Co., Bynum, N.

The French Club of Moncure High School met with Miss Dorothy Lam beth at her country home Monday evening. As the weather was so un favorable only a few were present. After the business meeting was con ducted by the president, Mr. Wilson Womble, several games were played, including several delays. Before the departure of the guests the hostess served hot chocolate, vanilla wafers, pimento sandwiches, candy and grapes. The meeting adjourned by deciding to meet next with Mr. Wil son Womble.

Next the following girls and boys, Misses Ro berta Lambeth, Emma Lee Mann, Margaret Strickland, Hetty Womble, Lois Wilkie and Messrs. Lewis Burns and Julian Ray sang a song which was enjoyed. After which Prof. H. G. Self led in prayer, then Miss Lucy Boone favored us with a beautiful solo and it was enjoyed so much. Next Mr. E. W. Avent, Jr., lectured on one of the Mission Study Books, entitled “New Paths for Old Pur poses,” by Margaret Burton and his lecture was very interesting. After the lecture, the meeting -was turned over to Miss Lucy Boone, who led in Miss Catherine Thomas’ place. Mr. Julian Ray first read the Bible les son and then Miss Boone told in an interesting way about “The First Thanksgiving” and then compared it with the observance of Thanksgiving today. The meeting closed with the league benediction. Moncure Girls Basket-Ball Team 1 played Biscoe Girls Basket-Ball Team at Sanford court last Friday evening. It was an interesting game and Miss i Jack Wheeler was the star goal . thrower. The score was 40 and 31 l in favor of Moncure. Those on the first team of Moncure school are: Misses Jack Wheeler and Margaret Strickland, goal throwers and Misses Lois Wilkie, Camelia Stedman, Hazel Cross and Frances Thompson.

The fol lowing Moncure boys are on the first team: Messrs. Ray Goodwin, Wilson Womble, Alfred Womble, Jay Cotten and Norton List. The score was 25 and 12 in favor of Moncure.

No particulars at this writing. <S> I Now Millions More Stop “Dosing” Colds Better External Treatment Wins New Users All Over the World i - i Every year since the introduction of Vicks Vapoßub, more and more people have given up the old-fash ioned way of “dosing" colds and turned to this modern external method. Today, the whole trend of medical practice is away from need less “dosing." Mothers of young children espe cially appreciate Vicks becauro there’s nothing to swallow, and, of course, nothing to upset delicate stomachs. Just rubbed on, its medi cated vapors are released by the heat of the body and inhaled direct fco the inflamed air-passages. At the same time Vicks acts through the skin like a poultice or plaster,“draw ing out" tightness and soreness. i Year by year, the fame of Viclca lias spread from neighbor to neigh bor and from state to state, until now it is used for the colds of adult. 3 as well as children in over 60 coun tries. The ever-growing demand for this modern method of treating colds is shown in the familiar Vick slogan famous when Vicks reached 17 Million Jars Used Yearly " later raised to “21 Million," these figures are again being changed, as There are now “Over 26 Million Jars Used 5l car.y in lho United Btates alone, ■ notice of sale of real ESTATE Under and by virtue of a decree made and entered in that certain spe cial proceeding now pending m the Superior Court of Chatham county, North Carolina, entitled Lou Har rington, et als. vs. Annie Truelove, et als.,” the undersigned commission er will, on Saturday, the 7th day of December, at 12 o’clock, noon, at the courthouse door in Pittsboro, North Carolina, offer for sale, to the highest bidder, upon the following terms, to-wit: ten per cent cash on day of sale; fifteen per cent upon confirmation of the sale, and the bal ance on the Ist day of December, 1930, those two certain tracts or par cels of land lying and being in Cape Fear Township, Chatham County, North Carolina* and being more fully described and defined as follows, VIZ: FIRST TRACT: BEGINNING at a rock S.

Accordingly, it is easier to save when you can before the need of additional : money arises and thus avoid borrowing at all, or much. Deposit every dollar you can spare with this bank, and you do two things: You avoid the need of borrowing later; so much latent if not altogether. | And you are establishing a basis of credit in case bor i rowing should be necessary. i , A bank has confidence in a person who saves when saving is possible, or difficult.
