John A. Arey Says Pasture
Revival Neeiled To Make
Re^ Progress
The Esaih reason why North
Carolina does not tnake greater
progress as a livestock producing
atate is that its landowners are
not expert ns cattle feeders and
the principal weakness in {his, is
the lack of pastures, says John
A. Arey, da ivy extension special
ist at State Col leg-',
f ‘‘We are poor feeders.” said ^
Mr. Arey last, week in addressing
the conference of extension spec
ialists. “That will explain why ;
we have not mside the pro.gress j
we should he making. Of course.'
we \Vere hit a hard lick last sea
son in our dairy work because of
the dry weather and the abund-;
ance of feed produced in other ■
sections. The mid-vest folks har-.
vested an excellent croii of for- j
age and other feed and are able j
to produce t itterf-'t right now at
a much low'er price than we can.
Yet we can grow a.s much hay
per acre as any section of the
United States and at as low a
cost. We can also have excellent
pastures if we will but give some
thought and time 'o the subject.
Successful dairyin.g is dependent
upon pastures.”
Mr. Arey .says a pasture revival
Is needed ii: the State. The usual
conception of a pasture in North
Caroliha, he said, is a worn out
piece of land, unsuited to crops,
fenced with a strand or two of
barbed wire. This is nothing but
an exercise ground, he claims,
and is often a dan.gerous one at
that because it is usually criss
crossed with deep gullies.
Good land is needed for pa.s-
ture and some of the tame grass
es should be planted If a pasture
has trees on it, cut them down so
the grasses may alisorb the sun
light and grow.
Farmers are not in a condition
to buy many pun- bred cow.-; at
this time. l-r. .yr-y said, but he

WaBhlngton, Peb. 16.—Repre
sentative "Farmer ’ Bob" Dough-
ton, displaying much --of that
3a.me aggressiveness which
brought aboi'.t the defeat of the
sales tax at the last session of
Congress, played a prominent
part this wjek in routing the
Republicans in their effort to put
the Democrats "on the spot” re
garding the tariff issue.
Republican ’ leaders in the
House conceived the idea that be
cause of depreciated currencies
in foreign countries that they
could ram through Congre.sa a
bill to increase the rates of the
Smoot-Hawicy Tariff bill, their
contention being that the cur
rency situation had destroyed the
protection, cr at least most of it,
in the Smoot-Haw ley hill and
higher rates were necessary. If
the Uemocruts cci'.Id have been
jockeyed into a position of vot
ing for raising rates in the
Sfnoot-HawU'v bill, a mca.surc.
which they d°nounced from every
busting in the last campaign, the
Republicans would have made
governor; the ohairinan to re
ceive $6,000 .a year and the mem
bers $7 a day wh’’Ie they are in
the service of the state. The bill
docs away with reprseentation by
the minority party by failing to
specify it.

out the intent of the act i.s in
cluded than the old bill had and

'' Representative Doughtoii was
appointed citairman of a Hbuse
Ways and Means subcommittee
to make a stndy of the Republi

floor of the House fhls week, tie
Tar Heel salon said, he began
the hearings with an'open mind
on the subject apd only after" ex
tended testimony had _ been, tak
en did he reach, the 'conclnslon
that there was no . justification
for such lesislatl.on as the Re
publicans hnd proposed.
Doughton flayed those who by
high tariff rates hnd brought
about American isolation and
cited the harmful effect of such
a policy on agriculture. He said:
“My friends, when we must ex
port more than half of our cot
ton, when must export a large
percentage ef our tobacco, large
quantities ot meats produced,
both procps.ted and otheravise.
large quantities of wheat, and
hundreds of millions of dollars
worth of goods manufactured by
the indiistrifs of America, when
we must have an ■•'xport market
for our surplus products and
commodities, it is a dangerous
time to rai.ie tho tariff .so high
that it will amount to an em
bargo.”
The North Caro.inian. who Is
slated to become chairman of
the powerful ways and means
committee, cited statistics to
show "how ridic’lous and pre
posterous it is to claim that we
are being run over or flooded
with goods from countries with
depreciated currencies.” ,
Doughton charged that the Re
publicans were not in good faith
in their, proposal to boost the
tariff rates, but were merely
seeking to embarrass the incom
ing adininistration. He observed
thkt the Republicans fcidenjly
dfd not learn tmythlng fjrom the
results of . the last C presidential
eleetfon.
Depreeiated policies of the Re
publican part^ and not depreclat-;
:wd currencies of -other countries'
is^thh cause of so much distress
to; American labor, American
agrieolture, and American in
dustry, “Farmer Bob" asserted
as 'Yfae Democratic side of r-the
House rpared its approyal with
applause. "" , f:*?
The motjon. to discharge the
ways and means ccmmlttee -from '
consideration' of the Bill to rate
tariff rates because of ^Jepredat-'
ed foreign currencies 'Was\ de
feated by a vote of .,212 to, 17>,
only three Democrats supporting
it. It was on ibis motion that
Doughton addressed -4he House. |
“The proposed loglslation is i
nothing more or less than an em
bargo,’’ the North Carolina solon,j
said. I
•‘Another thing, it will great-^
ly '-cripple American industry,!
American labor. It is a narrow j
and selfish policy. We have al-1
ready lost much ot the friendship,
of other countries hy the Inlqult-'

hardy have a friend left in /the

“Ill 19.;2 the falling off in im

greater than for those countries
on tho gold standard. This is one
of the most important, questions

last hours of the. Congress to pay

“Every time the tariff subject
is considered or mentioned the

Crowther) goes into paroxysms.
He favors an embargo against
the importation of all goods

ILLUSION:
Josie, the lovely trapeze artist, stands upon a small platform.
At the will of the magician she leaps twenty feet into the air
to reach her trapeze. She uses no ropes, no ladder! A phe
nomenal leap for a woman ,,, or a man!
EXPLANATION:
Josie didn’t jump... she was sprung! The twenty-foot leap
is not dependent on Josie’s ability, but on a powerful spring
mechanism hidden beneath the sfkge which propels the artist
upward through the air. The force is so violent that the lady
wears a light steel jacket which protects her from injury as ,
she starts her astonishing leap.
