Arey, dairy extension specialist at State col lege. “The supplies of hay on most of these farms will be ex hausted by rebruary or March, es pecially where there are no silos and a few cows are kept for cream production. Usually when the supply of hay is exhausted the cows are turned on the permanent pastures whether there is anything to eat on them or not. Neither is list the condition of the soil consider ed. This means that the cows damage the sod and get little nu trition from the early glasses.” A bout between Zlgnt Kost»> polls, ex-U|^weight ctuunpton of Australia, and “McHttana" Kelly, ex-Ughtweight cfaami^n of United States Ann^, will feature the boxing card at the JamOB CiyllUm Oraserration camp at Pnrlear Thursday eve* nlng at .S o’clock.

[Texans Back Repeal And Legalized Beer Vote In 237 of 254 Counties Of State Gives Majorities Of Over 100,000 Supper Wiil.Be Given Thursday Baseball Oub At Moravian Falls To Use Proceeds For Teain’s Use Dallas, Tex., Aug. 27.—Sena tor Morris Sheppard’s hope of making 'Texas the first of the 13 states to block repeal of the 18th amendment was buried tonight under a majority of more than 110,000 votes reported from Sat urday’s prohibition referendum. With votes tabulated from 237 of the state's 254 counties, 34 of them complete, antl-prohlhitlon- Ists today held a lead of 270,926 to 159,869 upon the proposal to Texas as the 23rd state to ratify removal of the amend ment from the constitution. In the same tabulation the A delightful supper and all kinds of refreshments will be of fered by the Moravian Falls Baseball Clubs at the schoolhouse at Moravian Falls Thursday eve ning about 7:30 o’clock. Instead of the regular auction sale, the supper will be served at a reasonable price with refresh ments as extras. The proceeds of the supper will be used for the benefit of the baseball teams. 42 DEATHS REPORTED IN WAKE OF HURRICANE Texas election bureau reported If temporary grazing is provided 274,677 votes for the proposal to through March and part of April, legalize 3.2 per cent beer through the cows may be kept off the per- an amendment to the state con- manent pasture until the grass has made a desirable growth and the soil is dry enough to prevent damage to the sod from trampling. Arey says most any of the small grains might be used to sup- |ply this temporary grazing; but, a mixture composed of several will give better grazing than any one used alone. One good mixturs is two bushels of Abruzzi rye and 16 pounds of crimson clover an acre. Another which he highly recom mends consists of one bushel of Abruzzzi rye, one bushel of beard less wheat, one bushel of beardless barley and 10 pounds of crimson clover. The first mixture should be planted during the latter part of August and up until September 15 while the second mixture should be planted between Septembr 15 and October 16. Heavy seeding and a fertile soil are necessary for best results in securing spring grazing. Two tons of ground limestone per acre with 400 to 600 pounds of ferti lizer applied at seeding will give ibest results. The toll of death and property damage piled to disastrous heights Thursday night as the east cleared away the debris from its most ter. rific tempest in years. The death list stood at 42 lives lost. The destruction, impossible of approximate calculation in such widespread devastation, mounted into many millions of dollars.

Rawleigh Co., Dept. NC-14-S, Richmond, Vu. Aug. 17-24-24-31 PREPARE WHEAT LAND IN ADVANCE OF SOWING The best wheat farmers of North Carolina do not seed their wheat on freshly prepared land. “A well-prepared seed bed is essential with wheat and assures good stands and heavier yields. However, this seed bed ought to be prepared sometime in advance and allowed to settle. The land should be prepared from four to eight weeks before seeding time, if pos sible,” says P. H. Kime, agrono mist for the North Carolina ex periment station. “A well pulveriz ed seed bed, rather loose on top and compact but not hard under neath is most desirable. It will hold moisture much better than a loose, cloddy bed.” Kime believes that disking is to be preferred to deep plowing in preparing land for wheat. Es pecially is this true where the land has been in summer crops and cannot be plowed before Octo ber 1. Clover sods and other lands not in summer crops should be plowed during August or early September and disked two or three weeks later. This gives time for the vegetation to rot and the soil to settle. Harrowing or light disking just before sowing the wheat will pre pare a good surface for seeding. In many cases, plowing land for wheat is not desirable. Certain loamy soils that were well Elizabeth City, Aug. 25.—A story of the rescue of a coast guardsman, his wife and four ehildren who were swept nearly mile into the sound while clinging to the roof of their home during the hurricane early Wed nesday morning, was told at sev enth district coast guard head quarters here today.

ETHRIDGE IS NAMED TO MAJOR STATE POST Raleigh, Aug. 26.—State college interpreting the delay of Governor Ehringhaus in making his major appointments to mean that Colonel J. W. Harrelson, director of con servation and development, would not be reappointed, had fixed a teaching chair for the colonel who . , i., iWas told officially yesterday to ing tide to his home to bring his ^ family to the station or safety. "We couldn’t get back,” he said today, "no one could have lived in that current. A few minutes after I got in the house it began to go to pieces. We fled to the kitchen and from them climbed to the roof of is kitchen porch. “The entire house collapsed a Ehringhaus named Representative R. Bruce Ethridge of Dare, to suc ceed Colonel Harrelson.

A fisherman came by in a dory and took the Tolar family to safety and when coast guards men saw an empty boat drifting by, they took it and made their way back to the station. All nine houses of the crew at the station were swept away, as well as an old station building •siuoq sjois o^ pasn MRS. MARTOA S. BROWN IS CLAIMED BY DEATH Ehringhaus reappointed E. B. Jeffress, of Greensboro, as head of the highway department. The in stantaneous, surjoinder of the wisecrackers was that Mr. Ehring haus did no such thing, that this highway appointment had gone to George Ross Pou. But Mr. Ehring haus confounded his critics by an nouncing to a cockeyed world that Mr. Jeffress is in “name and in fact” head of the highway and public works commission in its operation and in its personnel.
