HARRILL & KING jj
Real Estate Brokers Who Have Built a Thriving Business | t
Through Fair and Honest Methods in Deal
ing With the Public.
__— h
With offices upstairs in the Horn
building, in Forest City, Harrill &
King, realty brokers, have built for
themselves a business which stands
firm on the rock' of honesty and fair
dealing with the public. They offer
a most complete service in the list
ing for sale of homes, business prop
erties, building lots, farms and other
-property; and specialize in auction
sales, and cut up the world to suit
the individual or concern wanting
to buy. In fact and in deed they do
a general business in real estate.
And, the new activities in real es
tate that are presenting themselves
in these parts make it imperative
to have brokers who are always a
lert to the present day situation. Be
ing in close touch with the impor
tance of today, they are in a posi
tion to handle your property, wheth
er buying or selling, in a most sat
isfactory manner. Featuring general
real estate brokerage, they offer
both the buyer and seller an excel
lent service. Their activities cover
all phases of the business. They
have much property for sale and for
rent.
Messrs. Harrill & King, heads of
this progressive concern, give each
type of real estate listing their per
sonal attention. No matter how small
the property may be that you desire
bought or sold, you will find that this |
concern will give it the same careful j
attention just as though you were]
N. C. LEGISLATURE j
HAS ADJOURNED!
Longest Session in History of
State Comes to End—Ac
complished Much.
The North Carolina General Assem
bly adjourned the longest session in
the history of the state Wednesday
night,- after being in session 141
days. An agreement was reached on
a compromise revenue bill, and then
everything was geared up to put the
bill through and adjourn as quickly
as possible.
As adopted, the revenue bill pro
vides for a 15 cent ad valorem tax
on the counties for school purposes,
and the state accepts in principle
the maintenance of the six-months i
school. Income taxes are raised and I
so are taxes on corporations. Also j
there is a merchants' sales tax of
of one per cent on gross

success is largely due to this extra-; *
ordinary service rendered. They -are ; 
in touch with all channels of pub-:
licity, and no matter whether it is 1
buying or selling, they know just j
what action to take that will bring
the desired results. They understand
human nature and possess that, na- ]

when to strike. s
Messrs. M. J. Harrill & G. C. King ;
are men of great vision, thoroughly
posted on all contemplated develop
ments over the state, are excellent,
appraisers and can tell values at a

to when to buy and when to sell is '
authorative, and fully merits your;

or selling real estate.
Their success and reputation, their
high standing in the local commu- j
nity, make this aggressive concern i
a very reliable office through which,
to transact business. The fact that i
they are firmly established assures 
the customer that their advice on [
any particular deal is good and
springs from the right source.

j for the McLean law proponents, in
; that the principle of state support (
of schools was adopted and the prop
erty tax was cut materially. How
ever, it will be many months before (
the exact effect of the new law will (
be worked out.
Appropriations all up and down
the line were cut, including a uni
form reduction of 10 per cent m
the pay of state employes with a ,
few exceptions. The present impres
sion is that the cost of operating ,
schools will be reduced considerably. 
I Session's Accomplishments.
Although the Assembly failed to 1
j entirely relieve property of the bur- '
den of the six months schools, it did 1
provide substantial tax relief through *
its road and school legislation, and (

that it had accomplished little, the *
1931 Assembly did, as summarized *

instead of county operation of the

Gather Peach Drops
To Control Worms
Along with spraying, it is im
portant to pick up the dropped
peaches and destroy them in some
manner to control the worms of the
peach curculio.
In the opinion of C. H. Brannon,
extension entomologist at State col
lege, picking up "drops" is just as
important and is as much a part of
curculio control as is spraying or
dusting the fruit. Worms in the drop
ped peaches soon bore their way
out of the drops into the soil and if
these drops are picqed up systemati
cally and destroyed, many of the
curculio worms will be killed.
Mr. Brannon says the first gath
ering of the drops should begin as
soon as enough are on the ground
to justify the labor. At least two
more collections should be made five
or six days apart. This procedure
will get most of the worms falling
to the ground in the infected peach
es.
It is important, however, to so
handle the drops as to destroy the
worms as the collections are made-
One good way is to bury the peach
es in a trench 18 to 24 inches deep!
and to cover the infected fruit with
a layer of quick lime before filling
the trench with soil.
Indications are that there will be
a good crop of peaches in North
Carolina this season. The best prices
will be paid for that fruit which ; s
free from insect and disease dam
age. Wormy peaches especially are
not wanted and the grower must
wage a fight with the curculio tu
prevent these worms. Picking up the
dropped fruit, should go along with
spraying, through the season to con
trol these worms, declares Mr.
Brannon.
By the way the Old Folks roar
at automobile crashes you might
think' that there were no fright
ful and fatal runaways in th;?
horse and buggy days.

sources and Capital—But a Bank of the People;
For the People; By the People.
The Union Trust Company, which
recently took over the depository of 1
■ the First National Bank of this city, I
lis more than a bank of dollars and;
' cents, resources and capital, but an j
institution that is conducted by men |

ion Trust Company of Forest City is J

j The Union Trust Company of

hensive service, which includes gen
jeral banking, saving department, in
'teerst accounts, trust department and
i safety deposit boxes. These depart
ments are ably managed by men who

] practical experience, to give the
•public high-class service. Fact is the
• service they render makes it unneces
| sary to have several banking con
nections, as they are fully capable
:in every particular to care for your
| every want.
{ Under the direction of officers who
j understand the needs of the farm
r er and grower, and are always ready
,to cooperate for the good of indi- J
! viduals and corporations, this insti- j
- tution meets all the problems of
j the day and invariably Offers a ccr
, rect solution. Their service is most
! complete and covers all phases of
: modern banking.

:an individual, has character written J
| through its history, by the difficul-i
jties it overcomes in the struggles to-
I ward the attainment of its ideals.
In the Union Trust Company you
j will find strength, seasoned judgment,
dependability, accuracy in handling
i details, and breadth of financial vi
sion—and all to be applied to the

I
| the public every accommodation in a
j banking way, and have greatly aid-1
:ed in the development of this part j
'of the state. The fact that we have «
j here this bank with its excellent ac-1
I commodations, has been one of the!
important factors in the develop-1
ment of this section of North Caro
lina.
t
In making this review of the prog-;
ress of today, we desire to compli-!
ment the officers of this bank upon j
the fact that its officers studied j
the banking history of the country, {
and, seeing the needs of the present;
day, have fittingly maintained an
institution that meets all the require
ments of the complex business situa
tion of the twentieth century, hence,
the good people of this section should j
be exceedingly proud of the fact j
that the Union Trust Company is j
one of the stable, standard and most I
' j
reliable banking houses to be found i
anywhere within the confines of this
section of the south.
