There were very few who failed on any subject. The county basketball league opens November the 28th with Harrisburg opening the season with one of their bitter rivals, Winecoff High School. As we all know it has- been many a moon since Harrisburg suffered a de feat in basketball at the hands of Winecoff.

We have in Clegg, McCathern and Earl Alexander two of the best forwards in the county league. Their motto is “more points for our team,” and believe me, you will surely have to have some flashy guards or else they will carry out their motto. At Center we have Roy Linker, who gets the tip off at all times. He is also a dangerous man around the basket. At guard we have a number of likely candidates such as Harry Allison, John Carri ker, Yates McCathern and Victor Harris. The games will probably be divided between these four guards.

Goodman, County Agent $ * * AGRICULTURE COLUMN For the purpose of encouraging and building up the turkey raising in dustry of the county and vicinity a turkey rally or turkey market will be held in Concord, Saturday, November 19, 1927, beginning at 10 o'clock, on the vacant lots adjoining the County Building, South Church street. There is a two fold object in view: One is to give breeders of turkeys an opportunity to exchange or buy breed ing etock; and the other is to supply a demand for fat turkeys for Thanks giving day. I will take this occasion to say that the general feeling is that too little consideration is paid to the quality of the breeding stock kept and used. Good birds that should.be retained for breeding are sold as meat, and the re sult is a falling off in the size and vigor of the flock. This is a condition that every effort should be made to correct; and the first step toward do ing so is in a careful selection of the breeding stock. All those who have turkeys they want to sell or exchange as breeders and those having turkeys they want to dispose of to the Thanks giving day trade are give this chance to sell them. Let us make this first turkey rally a grand success and look forward to making it an annual event. R. D. GOODMAN, County Agent. AGC COLUMN— xzfiflff ffffi i;!** Note These Facts in Buying Pecan By C D| MATTHEWS The growing of pecan nursery stock for transplanting is a highly special ized industry. These trees require more skill to grow and hre more dif ficult to propagate than the usual fruit trees. Since the future yields of pecans are so much influenced by the stocks used for budding, by the kind of budwood used, and by methods of propagation it may be readily seen how important it is to have trees come from a reliable source. There are two methods of propogat ing pecan trees, namely root-grafting S. Maaon’s.

Root-graft ed trees have proven undesirable and planters are urged not to set them out. They kill back badly. Failure of many trees to grow is'usually trace able to the fact that they were root grafted. Budded trees show a slight crook at the point where the bud was inserted. Root-grafted trees are straight from the ground up. This should help the purchaser to distin guish between the budded and the root-grafted tree. Pecan trees are sold by height. The desire to get large trees in a short time frequently results in the use of too much nitrogen in* the nursery which forces rapid growth Threes of this type will often have softy spongy taproots as compared to trees properly grown. They require a much longer time to get started. Where a planter sets the wrong va riety the error may be overcome by top-working the trees. Where he sets a root-grafted tree or a tree grown from a runt in the nursery the only thing he can do is dig it up and set another tree. After pecan trees have been prop erly grown it is still necessary that they 'be carefully dug and packed for shipment. If the trees are dug be fore the leaves have fallen normally or if the roots are badly bruised in digging, or exposed to sun and wind, or are not properly packed to prevent drying out in transit, all efforts on the part of the buyer will avail noth ing. It is always best to have the trees come directly from the nursery in which they grow. There they are forwarded to a point and rehandled there is always a chance that the roots will not be properly protected. One of the prime objects of the N. C. Pecan Growers Society, Raleigh, is to assist growers in getting right va rieties of trees, properly grown and packed for shipment. An effort is made to secure trees of the highest quality at the lowest price consistent with good quality. Putting the Echoes to Work. Harry Daniel in Thrift Magazine. J In the Jackson Hole country, where Mrs- Coolidge and John spent an August day while the President cam paigned for fish in Yellowstone Lake, they tell some pretty tall stories about the big hills in the far corner of Wy oming. The snow-capped Tetons are indeed a husky lot. „As mountains, they have made a great success of life. . . “You ouxht to be out here dur ing the echo season,” said one of the mountaineers, stepping out from under a hat that looked like it might some day grow up and become a tent. “What do you mean by the echo season?” we ventured. “Well, these here mountain# are bo high and far apart that some times it takes hours for a sound to come back. But the folks around here are pretty smart. At night be fore going to bed they stick their heads out of the window and holler, ‘lt’s time to get up’; and, sir, that echo travels up there in the moun tains all night long and then gets back in the morning just in time to yell at ’em when they ought to be piling out of bed.” In an application for a divorce a Los Angeles man complained that in 17 years his wife had not spoken a word to him and had not even asked him for money. “ IREDELL” UPHOLSTERED FURNI TURE IS GOOD FURNITURE f For six years IREDELL Furniture, com bining style, beauty and serviceability, has been sold by, retail dealers in several states.

The Tribune Bureau, Sir "Walter Hotel. Raleigh, Nov. 9. —Following reports that several sportsmen attempting to hunt ducks and geese on state licensee in eastern counties where migratory wildfowl are exempted from state regulations have been arrested by county authorities, J. K. Dixon, State Game "Warden has called the attention 6f sportsment to the fact that they cannot hunt this type of game iu Cur rituck, Dare, Hyde, and Tyrrell coun ties without obtaining special licenses from these counties. Mr. Dixon declared that under the state-wide game law, migratory wild fowl on Currituck, Albemarle, Roa noke, Croatan, Pamlico, Bogue and Core Sounds were exempt. Recently, the attorney general’s office ruled that the law applies to all migratory wild fowl shooting in the , counties that have special game laws which cover this type of game. Special game laws are in force in only the four upper sound counties of Currituck, Dare, Hyde and Tyrrell, Mr. Dixon declared, leaving all of the territory south of Hyde county, sub ject only to state licenses. Carteret county has recently turned dver the regulation of wildfowl in that county to the Department of Conserva tion and a Development, and a special county license to hunt ducks, geese, brandt, and other migratory wildfowl is not necessary there.
