TUFtS APPEALS FOR THE NEEDS OF RED CROSS To Branch Chairman of the Moore County Chapter, American Red Cross and Health and Welfare As sociation. Dear Chairman: Within a few days I have received an appeal from Red Cross headquar ters for clothing for the Mississippi refugees. They ask for suitable clothing, clean and in good order for men, women and children; but no furs, no shoes and no hats are required. As we are doing no volunteer work in sewing in committee for our Red Cross Chapter there will be no con certed effort made along that line. Therefore I am leaving to each branch chairman to do what seems best. Please send anything you receive in the line of clothing to my home at Pinehurst before November 15 and I will see that it is packed and sent according to instructions as sent from headquarters. Please let me take this opportunity of appealing to you to help the Red Cross Roll Call, Nov. 11 to 24. Mrs. J. H. Suttenfield is chapter chairman of this. She may have asked you to serve as Roll Call Branch Chairman. If not please find who has been ap pointed in your town and do all pos sible to co-operate. It is vital to our work in the county that we enlist all old, and many new, members. You may have noticed in the local papers, Miss Eifort’s appeal for money to help two little babies keep alive. That appeal need never have been made had we not an almost empty treas ury. I beg you to help put funds into that treasury so that we may never have to sit back and be unable to help such pathetic cases. We are, first, responsible for half the Red Cross nurse^s salary (the county pay ing the other half) her car and its upkeep—after that obligation is dis charged we need funds to give the nurse. Miss Hilda Merryman, and the social worker, Miss Lucille Eifort, in order that they may have something for the needy and unfortunate. It is hopeless work to find suffering and destitution and have no money to provide relief. After the Roll Call, comes the Christmas Seal Sale from Nov. 24 to Dec. 25. As we get a good proportion of the receipts from the Roll Call for our local work, so, also from the Seal sale we receive a part of the returns to use for certain purposes. We need your help in all of these things. If we all faithfully do our share and urge others to help, we will be able, not only to put over the things al ready planned, but a larger and broader program of work. Please let me count on your en thusiastic co-operation and assist ance. GERTRUDE W. TUFTS, Chairman, Moore County Chapter, American Red Cross and President Health and Welfare Association. 400 additional head were brought in by these men. The Guernsey and Jersey breeds led in the placings. As a result of the contest, seven of the farm agents and one negro local agent will have part or all of their expenses paid to the great dairy show at Memphis this month. USE TOBACCO BARNS FOR CURING SWEET POTATOES. Recently in conversation with Dr. Poole, associate professor of Plant Pathology, State College, he told me that there is no reason at all why we can not use our tobacco barns for curing and keeping our sweet pota toes through the winter months. These barns he says are much better than those used in New Jersey which is a successful potato producing sec tion of the world. Dr. Poole has promised that he will make us a visit soon and show us exactly how to ope rate the bam. If this can be done one of our problems is solved. As a general rule it is no trouble for us to make a good crop of potatoes but to save them is sometimes difficult. Each year we lose as many or more potatoes from rotting than we use. Consequently in the spring of the year potatoes are always high and plants scarce. If you are interested in this piece of work and will let me know I shall be glad to notify you when Dr. Poole expects to be here. E. H. GARRISON, JR., County Agent. collected. Section 3.

Tom Tarheel says he is going to get the folks in his community to have a rooster sale and exchange day So that he can get some new blood in his flock. M. F. Barber, of Onslow county, cleared $800 from a flock of 200 Barred Rocks during the past season in spite of losing about 300 baby chicks from moldy feed. North and South Carolina have united again. This time it is to sell their sweet potatoes. THE PINEHURST LUMBER YARDS Pinehurst, N. C. Three Materials That You Want Now. CAR OF RED CEDAR SHINGLES. That still remains the acceptable Roof Cover. CAR OF GUM FLOORING. Nothing’ yet has been found to quite come up to Gum flooring. CAR OF PINE CEILING AND PINE FLOORING. These are standard, need no words of explanation or recommen dation. With these three staples the Pinehurst Lumber Yards Carry at all times an ample stock of the things you require, and of the quality you want. The superior types for the better uses, and the cheaper supplies for less essential purposes. With all of our products we give SERVICE. And we give it when it is wanted. A man was in a few days ago and left a big order because he said, “When I buy a thing from the Pinehurst Lumber Yards, much or little, I get it when I want it.” THE PINEHURST LUMBER YARDS Pinehurst, N. C. WE HAVE WHAT YOU WANT, AND PUT IT ON THE GROUND WHEN YOU WANT IT THERE. 31UCH BLOODED STOCK BROUGHT INTO STATE. With final figures available on the results of the dairy development com- paign conducted in North Carolina this past year, the supply of improv- evd stock added to the dairy farms has been increased by 1,483 animals. Of this number 820 were of pure bred, registered stock, divided into 261 bulls and 559 females. The campaign was begun last Sep tember by the office of dairy exten sion at State College. Farm agents in 30 counties took an active part in the movement and made reports of their work. The dairy extension of fice offere(^five prizes of expenses and part expenses to the National Dairy Show at Memphis and when the final check was made it was found that W. Kerr Scott, of Alamance county, had won first prize; E. P. Welch, of Beartifort, second prize; E. S. Millsaps, of Randolph, third; L. D. Thrash, of Buncombe, fourth; J. R. Powell, of Blanden, fifth; C. A. Sheffield, of Da vidson, sixth; G. W. Falls, of Pasquo tank, seventh, and R. W. Gray, of Cherokee, eighth. According to A. C. Kimrey, dairy extension specialist, this was one of the most successful campaigns for the improvements of existing herds of cattle that has ever been put on in North Carolina. Some of the county agents who formerly won prizes in the pure bred sire campaign proved that their counties still did not have enough such cattle and proceeded to place more. Some agents did not make a report on their part in the contest and it is believed that at least NOTICE OF SALE.
