St. Louis, Mo.—Senator William J.
Stone of Missouri, chairman of the
Senate Foreign Affairs Committee,
considers the result of the election an
emphatic endorsement of the Wilson
Administration. He said:
"The Republicans have'been saying
that if they could become united they
coukl lick us. They were united
everywhere and the contest generally
was a clean-cut fight between the
Democrats, standing by Wilson's Ad
ministration, and the Republicans op
posing it.

PRIZES BY FARMERS' UNION
Thirty-Seven Counties are Now Or
ganized for Community Service
Week, December S, 4 and
Raleigh,— Thirty-seven counties of
the state are now fully organised for
the Community Service Week, De
cember 3, 4 and 6. This does not
mean merely that there Is a commit
tee composed of Ave or seven men In
that county. It means that the
county has been thoroughly organized
with locsl committees In almost every
community. On the average about
fifty committees have been named in
each county. » " ■
The State Farmers' Colon is right
bsck of the movement, pushing It
with every bit of strength of the or

community co-operation is the very
bed rook upon which Its (illusion In
the highest and host sense. Cntll we
can co-operate an communities, we
cannot hope to co-operate as larger
units. We must first of all develop
a co-operatvie spirit in the neighbor
hoods and then put that spirit to
work In our selling and working buy
ing. In making roads. In supporting
schools and churches."

DISPATCHES FROM RAtEIGH
Doings and Happsntngs That Mark
the Progress of North Carolina Peo
ple Oaths red Around the State
Caoitol.
The report on miscellaneous facto
ries to be included in the annual re
port of Commissioner of and
Printing M. L. Shlpman was complet
ed a few days ago. The figures quot
ed shown the state's manufacturing
Industries to be in satisfactory condi
tion.
The division of establishments
treated under this head includes
manufacturing enterprises that are
not treated under cotton, woolen, illk
or knitting mills, or furniture facto
ries
As has been the case in former
years the manufacturing situation
shows a steady advance. Up to the
end of the period covered by the re
ports received June 30, 1914, no un
toward conditions have affected the
Industries covered. While sales have
not been below a normal level. It Is
also noticeable that there has been
no abnormal demand. As it appears
to the department officials, this Is a
condition much more desirable thin
one which ranges from one extreme
to the other, and makes for a growth
consistent with the development of
the entire state. It would be, of
course, desirable condition If the
state's manufacturing industry was
of a greater magnitude, but taken as
a whole, the showing made Is of a
very satisfactory nature.
The total number of miscellaneous
factories reporting to the department
for the year ending June 30, 1914, Is

Governor Says Aid Belgian*
Governor Craig Issued an appeal to
North Carolinians to contribute to the
relief of the many thousands nf home
less and starving women and children
In Belgium whose husbands and fsth
ers have bean kHled In battle! The
appeal Is in response to a cablegram

Cotton S««d Will IneruM In Mw.
Washington.—E. W. Thompson, for
merly of Charlotte, now to be com
mercial attache of the American Em
bassy at Berlin, Is pe roaring to de
part for Rotterdam, where be will
•tay for a time, until the war alack
ena, before going into Germany.
Mr. Tbompeon brought back very
encouraging reports from coUtm
lfrowing atatee. He dM not nee any
body on the verge of starvation, but,
on the contrary, met many happy
people. He thinks that the Southern
farmer will pull through the present
crisis of an uncertain cotton market.
He takes a very optimistic view.
More wheat, he says, if being ship
ped from Galveston than ever before
in the history of the port. More cot
ton seed oil Is going to Europe than
ever before ss the export reports for
last month and September show.
Mr. Thompson was asked why
Great Britain took so much cotton
seed oil last month, and the month be
fore.
Raleigh
"Great Britain makes normally
about 100,000 tons of artificial butter."
said Mr Thompson. "She puts in that
butter either cotton seed or peanut oil.
The French supply of peanut oil has
been interfered with by the war. Cot
tonseed oil is taking its place. I look
for cotton seed to increase in price
as the war goes on.
"Holland makes T 50,000 tons of
butter in which she usee 150,000 bar
rels of cotton seed oil or peanut oil.
Denmark Is coming to the United
States for great quantities of cotton
seed oil cake to take the place of the
sunflower cake she has been getting
from Russia."
Mr. Thompson thinks that business
conditions are Improving In every sec
tion of the country. He believes that
new markets In and
many nations of Europe will be open
ed for A merle an-made goods because
of the war.
Although cotton Is North Carolina's
great «nt money crop It Is not the only
one. The North Tarollna corn crop
for last year was worth $48,648,000;
wheat $7,502,000; oaU $2,736,000; ryt.
$465,000; buckwheat $136,000; poia
toes $1,968,000; sweet potatoes $4,-
880,000; hay $«,#14,005; tobacco $30.-
988,000, and there are many smaller
crops.
Experts In the Department of Agri
culture that of these
crops can be doubled next year.
Thf. war has created an enormous
demand for wheat oats and other
foodstuffs.
