SEES LARGER CROP OF
COTTON IN CABARRUSi
I
Cotton Man Says Farmers Have
Planted Met* Cotton Thks Year
Than Buy Did Last Year.
The cotton crop in Cabarrus this
year will be much larger than last
year, in ,the opinion of one cotton ex
pert of the city who has studied this
year’s acreage.
He bases his prediction on the to
tal acreage and the more seasonable
weather thus far enjoyed, sawing that
even should the summer be as dry as
last year the increased acreage would
be certain to result in a larger crop.
“From observations and conversa
tions with farmers, “lie said, "I am
certain the acreage devoted to cot
ton this year is larger than last year's
total. The low prices paid for the
1925 crop does ijot seem to make any
difference, neither does the farmer
I seem to fear lower prices this year.
"One farmer told nre the other day
■ that he wilt be satisfied if he can sell
his col ion in the fall for 15 cents a
pound. It has not been very long
since farmers were not satisfied when
' they got ns high as 40 cents for the
[ cotton.”
Although the season was dry when
' cotton was first planted and worked.
L tlie rains of the past two weeks have
been of much benefit and the crop in
! the county is in excellent condition at
i present.
1 Discussing this jihftse of the rop
j the expert said one farmer told him
i several days ago that he had the
| best stand s ! nCe he had been on the
i farm. "Taken as a whole.” he said,
l “the crop is in fine shape all over
| the county. With the increased acre
i age it is certain the total yield for
1 Cabarrus will be larger than that of
1 1925.” '
Harrisburg Wins From the Jackson
* Training School.
■ The Harrlburg community baseball
team won a one-sided game from the
Jackson Training School by a score
of 14 to 2.
Lisk started for the school and
was hit hard for five innings. On
the fifth Russell relieved him, but was
knocked from the box in the seventh.
White replaced Russell, but he, too,
was hit hard.
R. Harris went the whole route
for Harrisburg, only yielding two hits.
The school; s first baseman singled and
the catcher hit a home run for the
only scores they made. Harris
fanned out. fourteen men.
J. Davis, Y. MeCachren and B.
Harris hit for three bases each. J.
Davis also hit a homer. Every Har
risburg player hit for two and three
singles and doubles each. E. Alex
ander had a fine day at second, handl
ing eight chances perfectly.
Hudson and MeCachren for Har
risburg made their only two errors.
J. Davis made a fine running catch,
and robbed White of a sure home
run. The school’s left fielder also
made a fine running catch.
A large v crowd attended and the
game was exciting throughout.
The game was played Saturday,
the 26th.
According to the director of the
Masteur Institute at Colombo. Cey
lon, tbe long-held belief that snake
charmers can cause snakes to leave

Within Thro, Allowed by Law tv
R. A. Dough ton, commissioner of
revenue for the State of North Car

es. :j jj
It is the desire of Mr. Houghton's a
department to procure payment of all [
Schedule B taxes within the time al- |
lowed by law before penalties apply.
The taxes are due Juue first and pen
alties apply August first.
All owners or motor vehicles are ,
also warned about securing licenses ,>
for the new year which begins July
first. There will be no extension of ,
time on the licenses after July 10th, ij
Mr. Doughton has warned. These :
licenses can be secured from the In- t
cal branch office here at the Reid Mo- *
tor Company or from Mr. Houghton's
office in Raleigh. ]
June comes to a close tomorrow •"
just al the close of another cool ,
spell. There have been some hot H
days during the month but as a whole '
the past 30 days have been unusnilly i
cool and fires have been needed on sev- ;■
eral occasions when unusually low ‘,
temperatures prevailed. .
The Greensboro Patriots clinched
the flag for the first half of the I’ied- !
moat League season by winning from I
Durham Monday While High Point

Should Greensboro lose all of lhe re

all of its games the Patriots would f
end the first half a winner.

CLEANING UP THE BASIN 0
Last of Concrete Stabs For First part .
of Dam Ixiid Thfe Morning.—Will (
Be Soon. e
The last concrete slab for half of e
the impounding dam was laid this e
morning and this part of the dam j
will be ready for water in a day or
so. The dam. to be 35 feet high per- j
pendieularly and 80 feet high in
slope, will not be completed for sev- f
eral weeks but tbe concrete has been j
laid 12 feet high iienpendicularly, so j
the water can be impounded should a
shortage exist. The remainder, of the c
concrete will be laid when the lam is j
completed.
Before any water is impounded,
| however, the basin of the dam is to be
cleared. This work has been started ,
and will be completed by the time the ,
concrete has settled. All underbrush
is to be cut and the basin otherwise (
cleared. . (
| Instead of requiring 30.000 cubic ',
feet as was stated some time ago. the 1 ]
dam will require 30,000 cubic yards |
of dirt, will impound about 400,-
000.000 gallons of water ill a basin ■
covering about 130 acres.
Cold Water Creek, on which is lo- .j
c&ted the city’s pump station, has been ,
Dinning full during the past two
itceek* following the rains. Chambers ;
Creek, on which the dam is being ,
erected, also pours into Cold Water
Creek and as both creeks have been <
running high since the rains the city ,
has plenty of water.

Flitter Knox Is Said to Have Taken 1
Car and Left it on KafariapoTN 1
Road.
Fuller Knox, negro, is held in the 1
county jn ! l here charged with the theft ’
of a Ford car Sunday night.
The car had been left standing in '

Dental Clinic Overcrowded Monday.
Twenty-three children we.re treated
and about the same number turned
away from the dental dinie in the
county building on Church street
Monday, the official opening day of
the clinic. The work is already go
ing on at full speed and Dr. Adams,
state dentist in (barge, has been very
busily engaged in his work since he
I opened his offices.
The overflowing throng of children
who visited the clinic Monday is just
an example why it is imperative that
the parents of the children call at
the office, or plbone for appointments.
The confusion caused by a large num
