JUDICIAL DISTRICT:
For many years the 21st Judi

11th and 12th Districts, the
courts of the 11th District were
%odly congested, in both civil and
criminal divisions. Various uv
Bocccssful attempts ha'i been mado

i but the courts of the 11th uid
12th Districts also, it required
many hours of tedious labor to
draft so that there would be no
conflict of courts. This bill was
introduced in the General Assem
bly, but on March 10, 1937 Mr.
J. H. Folger, who was working
with Mr. Sharpe in trying to get
i the bill passed, notified Mi*.
| Sharpe that it could not pass that
Session.. Whereupon Mr. Sharpe,
at his expense and much time and
labor, compiled statistics and
marshalled facts proving unques
tionably that the passage of the
I bill was ail immediate necessity
if justice was to be properly ad
ministered in the counties icom
prising the old 11th District.
Mr. Sharpe presented copies .if
these facts to every Legislator
whose county was affected by the
change. He went to Raleigh and
presented these facts and there
after the bill was passed without
a disenting vote.
So careful was Mr. Sharpe to
protect the interest of those then
in office that he provided in the
bill that Judge J. H. Clement
who redded in Forsyth (County
j should remain the Judge of the
j 11th District, and that Mr. A. H.
Gwyn, who resided in Rocking
ham County, should remain soli
citor of the new 21st District.

mWO HUNDRED YEARS alter America was settled, the country's vast natural re-
X sources were scarcely touched. The most vital need for the development of the
nation was adequate transportation. Without it, progress was impossible.
Then, in the 1830's. America saw the most significant economic development in
her history—the building of the first railroads. Among those early lines was the orig
inal unit of the Norfolk and Western Railway—the City Point Railroad, which started
operation over its nine miles of track between Petersburg and City Point. Va.. on Sep
tember 7, 1838. That little road displaced the gutted wagon trails, the primitive slow
moving ox cart, the rickety stage coach, and fulfilled an acute need for a faster, more
adequate transportation.
In 100 years, a network of steel rails has spanned the continent, bound thousands
of isolated settlements into a single united nation, and a vast wilderness has grown
into the richest and most progressive country in the world. During its "Century of
Service" the Norfolk and Western Railway, today a system with 5,000 miles of track
in six states, has played a major role in that unparalled growth.
A century ago. the railroads were vital to the development of the country. Today,
they are indispensable to the business and commerce of the nation. Providing a safe,
dependable, adequate transportation sendee to meet the needs of America is a great
responsibility, a tremendous task. Only the railroads can do the job. The Norfolk and
Western Railway will continue to meet, efficiently and adequately, the transportation
needs of the territory it serves, and will maintain its place as an indispensable factor
in the life of the communities along its lines.

filing the facts which insured it 3
passage, Mr. SUarpe rendered a
real patriotic service. This act

ification of the position, fehould
DO entitled to great weight with

Mr. Sliarpe has had longer ex
perience at thd bar than .either of
the other candidates; He has
rendered longer and greater ser
vice to the Democratic iParty
than either of the other candi
dates; He has had wider experi
ence in human affairs having been
a farmer, a teacher, a legislator,
and a lawyer.
But. for Mr. Sharpe it is very
»
probable that there would be no
21st Judicial District today.
This fact, coupled with his ex
perience as a lawyer, his service
to the Party, r •'' his understand
ing of human 1 roblertos, should
convince all that he is entitled to
their support for Judge on June
4th. !

the bed. It costs approximately
$6.50 to treat 400 square yards
of bed with this spray.
The county agent will be glad
to assist any grower with in
formation relative to using spray
treatment if they desire. Ex
treme care should be used in
properly mixing the necessary
materials and in applying tho
spray to the bed. This spray
consists of a mixture of Cuprous
oxide, cottonseed-oil-and a Letli
ane Sprayer mixture with ia de
finite quantity of water. Oil and
water are hard to mix and in
order to properly mix this spray
we have found that it is neces
sary to pump it through a spray
er having a very fine nozzle be
fore it is ready to apply to the!
plant bed. It is very difficult to,
do this with a knap sack or,
small compressed air type of
sprayer. This sprayer is alright
for applying the spray on the bed,
but for properly mixing the spray
before application growers are
advised to use a bucket spray
pump or a barrel sprayer if one
is available. If this spraying
material is not properly mixed
it will not five satisfactory con-
trol and is apt to do more
harm than good; furthermore,
it is very important that the
spray be used before blue mold
gets on the bed in order that
be more effective. Farmers de
af ing further information along
this line are advised to consult
this office.
At present farmers are being
requested to give in a farm re
port when listing their taxes wiMi
the tax lister. I would like to
urge farmers to be as careful as
possible in making these farm re
ports complete and J accurate.
This information is of untold
benefit in assisting us with ad
ministering the farm program in
carrying on other farm work in
the county. If Stokes county i.j
to get its fair share of the acreage
allotments under the farm pro-j
grams it is very important thnt
farmers give' in those report
accurately and completely. Farm
reports are a help to farmers
and not a hinderance. Theja re
ports do not have anything to do
with the amount of taxes a man
must pay. Accurate agricultural
information is of vital import
ance in planning a program that
Is fair and just.
