Give The People What They Want.
Knowing- that trio of splendid gentlemen who
constitute our board of county commissioners—
is we so well know them —it becomes difficult
for us to understand why they cling to the For
syth county domination of our health system—
unless it is on the hypothesis of a Hege hypnosis.
We do not question the motives of our board
—we know their motives are pure and unselfish
and intended well—but is our dapper doctor
from Winston-Sakyn a conjurer that we yield
so helplessly to his magic?
There are certainly no finer, more capable
public officials anywhere than Mr. Joyce, Mr.
Gibson and Mr. Jbhnson—but do they not see|
that the people want a freedom from outside in
terference in our home affairs, this alien over
lordship of our internal arrangements for our
own people—that we want a health department
'"made at home" and unfettered by the foibles
c r the fancies of other people.
We are informed the Stokes county health
program costs around $5,000 a year. Of this
amount we are taxed to pay $1,750.00. The rest
is furnished by the federal government, the
State government and Mr. W. N. Reynolds.
These outside contributions do not depend up- 1
on a combination of arrangements instituted by
quite a you*g outside doctor, who lets us have
the small end and gives his best services to the
big and rich county where he lives; and who has
i' line contempt for our wishes.
Stokes county has physicians of brain, ex
perience and character who are competent to
inana:*» our medical affairs. Let them manage'
them, and let them draw the pay.

Specialists Offer
Mid-Summer Advice
Many mid-summer fUrm tasks
about the farm and home require
and suggestions
;vhich State College specialists
are offering on the Carolina
Farm Features radio program.
Some crops are being harvest
ed: others arc just being start
ed, and there are others not yet
ready for harvest which are be
ing cultivated.
The agricultural experts are
arifmging their discussions to
conform with timely practices.
Insects and plant diseases take
their toll yearly. Yet many dol
lars could be saved each farmer
if he would follow preventatives
and control practices.
Already this yea r the flea bee
tle has damaged thousands of
dollars worth of tobacco in
northwestern counties.
With a favorable season and
and no control practices, the boll
weevil may cut cotton produc
tion sharply this season. How
ever, by the application of pre
scribed methods, farmers can
check the weevil attacks.
