CHICKEN THIEVES RAID HEN
HOUSES.
Another epidemic of chicken steal
ing has broken loose in this section.
On Wednesday night of last week
while Mr. H. B. Cornier and family
of the Buffalo community, were at
tending prayer meeting at the church
thieves went to his home, raiding his
hen house carying off 11 hens, a num
ber of small chickens. On the same
night they carried off ten hens and a
number of roosters from the premises
of Mr. A. A. Bowers, a near neigh
bor, who lives a few miles west of
bor. They also stole some 12 or 15
chickens from Mr. George Spivey,
who ilevs a few miles west of
Buffalo, last week. They watch the
farmers and their families and when
they find them away from home raid
the hen houses early in the night.
Others in section have also lost
chickens in the past week, or two.
Officers have been busy for the past
week or two trying to run the thieves
down. The fanners say that it is
very difficult to protect their flocks
from the thieves. If necessary, to
get access to the chickens, they use
tools to make openings in the build
ings although'they may be well con
structed. The farmers cannot sit up
all night armed to watch for the
thieves. The thieves sometimes steal
other things from the farmers, such
as tobacco, cotton, meat, etc- Sheriff
Womble and his deputies have been
busy for a week or two trying to run
these thieves down and put them be
hind the bars. It is thought that
they carry off,,the chickens and oth
er things in trucks and sell them to
produce dealers.

young man. Was jolly and good na
tured. Since the death of his father,
he and his brother, Bernice, had stay

done for her comfort. Milton had
a kind word for young and old, but
especially was he kind and consider
ate of the aged and feeble. He will
be sadly missed in the community and
the home. But we point the broken
hearted mother to Him that giventh
and taketh away, the one that can
comfort and heal the wounded heart.

preceded him to the grave by four
years.

Livestock Train
Here August Seventh
Will Show Modem Methods In Rais
ing Chickens; TYain Stops at Selma
and Smithfield.
.Poultry Raisers will get new and
better ideas in modem methods of
raising chickens from the livestock
demonstration train which will be
operated in eastern North Carolina
during the month of August by the
Atlantic Coast Line Railway cooper
| ating with State College and State
Department of Agriculture beginning
August seventh. *
‘The use of wire floors in brooding,
which cuts down the death rate and
aids in quicker and better develop
ment of chickens; use of artificial
light to increase egg production fall
and winter months when eggs are
higher in price, and many other fea
tures regarding the care and selection
of breeders with the different results
■ of feeding balanced feed and grain
! feed, and the different advantages of
J modem poultry house construction
j will be exldbted and explained on the
; train,” says W. F. Armstrong, asso
| ciate professor of poultry at State
j College ar.d director of the poultry
I division of the train,
j Every farm should have around one
j hundred birds, to give an added in
( come and as a part of the diversified
. farm program which offers an income
j the year around in the opinion of
Professor Armstrong. “Eastern North
j Carolina has ideal conditions for poul
try raising, and this industry will
prove of great benefit to the farmer
, who depends principally on one crop,
since the larger towns and northern
markets are easily accessible to the
poultry raiser.
| “To make a profit in poultry a lit
tle investment in housing, good feed
ing and management is required, but
* this added investment will give a
greater return on the dollar than the
haphazard of letting chickens shift
for themselves,” says Mr. Armstrong.
“With the aid of the marketing di
vision of the State Department of
Agriculture, disposing of poultry pro
1 ducts has, and will be of great aid to
the poultry raiser of Eastern North
Carolina who does not have local mar
kets.”
I Increased efficiency in getting more
results from a small number of birds
rather than trying to keep too many
is one of the necessary items in the
success of any poultry raiser, says
Mr. Armstrong, who will illustrate
modem paltry methods on the live
stock train. The train will be in San
ford on the afternoon of August 7th,
from 2 to 6 o’clock. „ i

GKEE-NiSlfOKO BANK & TRUST
COMPANY HOLDS BARBECUE
More than 100 employes, officers
and directors of the Greensboro Bank
1 and Trust Company and the Sanford
branch of the Greensboro financial tai
stitntion opened their “cabin” and re
creation center on Rock Creek, some
ten miles east of Greensboro, Satur
day evening with a delicious barbecue
supper, which was followed by danc
ing, phonograph selections and card
playing on thfe wide verandahs, says
the Greensboro News of Monday. The
evening was altogether most enjoy
able and the party broke up toward
TO o’clock, reluctant to leave the cool,
quiet and inviting lodge and grounds
and babbling sound of Rock Creek for
the noise and hurry and bustle of the
city.
The cabin which the Greensboro
Bank and Trust Company official and
clerical staffs have secured for their
place of reception and where picnic
suppers and little outing parties may
be enjoyed, was built years ago by
' the late El J. Justice and is one of
the most delightful spots in Guilford
county. It was to this cabin that
Mr. Justice, during his active prac
. tire of. law in Greensboro, would steal
I away to spend week-ends or maybe
an evening during the busy week in
l the cool of the forest and in earshot
of the cold, clear waters of Rock
Creek. It is a well built lodge of
solid oak logs with wide verendahs
around three sides. The Greensboro
Bank and Trust Company folks hake
"dolled” the place up a bit, placing
rustic furniture in the lodge room
and on the porches, while many va
ried color pillows were made by the
young ladies of the bank’s clerical
force adorn the benches and chairs
around the place. Electric light wires
have been strung to the cabin and the
inside of the lodge, the porches and
grounds are now well lighted with
electric lights.
E. Frank Andrews, cashier; A. O.
OoIemanJTeHer; R. HI Bobbitt, W. A.
Crabtree, W. R. Hartness, directors of
the Sanford branch of the Greensboro
Bank and Trust Company, accompani
ed by Messrs. H. F. Makepeace and
W. W. Robards, attended the barbecue
from Sanford.

FARMS COME THROUGH
WITH FOOD INCREASE
Farmers of North Carolina have
increased their plantings of food and
feed crops to the extent that a six
teen million dollar increase of these
products will be harvested this fall
as compared with 1929.
“Governor Gardner asked the state
to increase its value of food and feed
crops by fifteen million dollars this
year,’ ’said Dean I. O. Schaub in re
porting on the progress of the farm
program at the State Farmers Con
vention last week. “We have met the
Governor’s request and gone beyond
it. A careful survey made on 11,957
farms by the crop reporting service
shows that the value of the increased
acreage will amount to $16,138,015.80
if the yields this year equal those of
1929 and despite the lower price of
farm products.”
The Dean says the 11,957 farms
studied in this survey show an aver
age reduction in cotton acreage of 13
per cent as compared with 1929. Pea
nuts were reduced 2.4 per cent and
wheat was reduced through dry
weather by 25 per cent, (fa the other
hand, the corn acreage was increased
by 10 per cent; oats, by 11 per cent;
Irish potatoes by 25 per cent; sweet
potatoes, by 24 per cent; hay, by five
per cent, and poultry by 9.7 per cent.
One of the greatest increases was
shown in the increased plantings of
home gardens and truck crops. This
amounted to 42,233 acres.
The surveys from which the Dean
secured his figures were made in
every community in each of the 100
counties of the State, and were on
the same farms which were surveyed
in 1929. Because of this, the facts
found furnish accurate and definite
indications of what has happened
over the state this season. The Dean
said had it not been for the drought
this spring, the increase in hay, es
peciall, would have been more spec
tacular.
NORTH CAROLINA CENSUS.
Houston (Texas) Post-Dispatch.
These census figures coming from
North Carolina are of especial inter
est for the reason that they reveal a
growth in population in other than
in the urban districts. North Caro
lina is recognized generally as
having more cotton textile mills, more
iurmiure xacwjries, more toDacco lac
tones and perhaps more fertilizer fac
tones than any other state sooth of
Mason and Dixon’s line. The cen
ters in which the industries are locat
ed did ^record ithe largest popula
tion gains during the last decade, to
be sure.
But, these centers did not account
for all the gains. The agricultural
counties also reported substantial in
creases. Altogether the state gain
ed 606,023 people in the decade, and
generally speaking, the increase in
the cities was about 46 per cent and
in the rural counties about 23 per
eeht.' . - -,
To the excellent system of high
ways may be., attributed the good
showing jpgde-by the rural counties.
Those fiiwf cement highways, pene
trating into every part of the state,
have contributed greatly to the pro
motion of agriculture. They have
removed the farmer from his old
time isolation, brought him; into closer
proximity to market, and put him in
close touch with industrial activity of
the state. Industries in North Car
olina draw much of their raw mate
rial from- the local territory. Good
roads have formed a connecting link
between the producer on’the farm and
the producer in the factory? and th$
former has thus been encouraged to
stay on the farm. It has been made
to his financial interest to do so.
Those wonderful highways, whjch
have meant so much in the develop
ment of North Carolina, both in the
realm of industry and agriculture,
it is well to remember, were built by
the State and financed through State
bond issues.
