MARKET PRICES NOT SATISFACTORY. PINEHURST MAN CHOSEN PRESIDENT BY BREEDERS. Springfield, Mass., June 7.—Leon ard Tufts, of Pinehurst, N. C., was elected president of the Aryeshire Breeders’ Association today. Velvet beans should become an im portant factor in developing the live stock industry in the South and as a rotation crop which helps succeeding crops. This crop is the most vigor ous-growing annual legume cultivat ed in the United States. One or more varieties of velvet beans can be grown successfully in nearly all parts of the cotton belt. Last week The Pilot carried an article announcing a car of chickens to be loaded at Vass in the near fu ture. The County agent, Mr. E. H. Garrison, Jr., did not set a definite date and at present advised that the shipment be postponed until the mar ket prices are more satisfactory. Just at this particular time the prices are not very encouraging and as yet we have not been told a definite date for the shipment. Power expense is the one vital fac tor in producing crops over which' the Thousand Island dressing is a may- annaise dressing in which chopped highly flavored materials are added. There is no rule about what these ingredients should be. Some of those used—and there may be half a doz en—are hard cheese, hard-cooked eggs, pickle, olives, radishes, celery, green peppers, pimentoes, capers and onion. It is easy to make use of small amounts of such materials as you have on hand, rather than to purchase special thigs to make this dressing. A.

Winners of fourth prizes will each receive S500. Winners of fifth prizes will each receive $500. Musical, civic and women’s clubs in each community in each state will be invited to hold local contests to select the best young man and best youn^j woman singers of their towns. Thesf winners will then be certified to a state audition, which will be broad cast t>y a radio station in each state A state winner of each sex will be chosen and will receive a silvei medal. The next step is a district audition The young men and women who have won state honors will be taken to a central broadcasting station m one of five districts, where an audition will be broadcast to select the tw< winners—a young man and a young woman—from that district. The two winners in each district will receive gold medals and the ten finalists thus selected will be taken to New York for the final National Audition, to be broadcast over a na tional network of stations. All ex penses of contestants in the district and final auditions, including railroad fare, hotel bills, entertainment, etc., will be paid by the Atwater Kent Foundation. The spirit and purpose of the Na tional Audition are indicated in a statement by A. Atwater Kent, pres! dent of the Foundation, who said: “The discovery of one of those rare voices, of which each generation pro duces a very few, seems to me an event of profound national impor tance. Even when such a voice could give pleasure to only' a few thousand people in a year it was a national treasure. Now that millions may en joy it on the sam*? evening through the medium of radio, such a voice has become priceless. “The National Radio Audition, sup ported by the Atwater Kent Founda tion, is an undertaking to search the intire country for beautiful voices^ ind to offer these singers an oppor ■unity for full development, rv'cognf ion and reward.” Big 8c Sale 3 Subscribe to The Pilot.
