Virginia and North Carolina. Mr
liirdsong, the general manager, on t\u.
or three shon trips out in the rruui
try this week has beon so unpie ei,
that the growers whom lie futiinl tlijr-
King peanuts are digging too eailv
that he is {retting out n special cir
cular lu each member of the Exchange
cautioning tlieni against digging.tliei 1
peanuts before tin y are ready. In his
opinion a considerable per cent of the
immature peanuts will yet come to ma
turit) provided we do not have frost
within the next two weeks. If these
peanuts are dug too soon, then there
is a loss on this account and the prob
abilities of further loss to the moii
mature nuts from being dug too green.
In this circular Mr. Birdson is also
presenting to the growers the neces
sity of stacking their peanuts proper
ly. The loss each year through the
careless stacking of peanuts is con
sidelable und con be reduced, jf tin
growers will only give tin; niatlei
proper attention.
Mr. liirdsong will follow thi - spec
nil circular with another one soon call
ing upon the growers to use great
cure in the picking of their peanut?
He considers it of the greatest 1111
portauce to the growers 111 theii el
forts to secure better prices- for then
peanut sthat they put forth their host
efforts to preserve their full "\alue h\
protecting them agaim-t weather (lain
age and then seeing to it that the'
are properly picked and graded.

AD IN THE ENTERPRISE
ESTABLISHED 1898
Concerning the favoritism .'own
I the rich taxpayer in the reduction of
surtaxes in the Republican tax bill,
[ Senator Simmons in his ma.terf il dis
cussion of the measure, jaid.
"Surtaxes have been reduced from
i ti. r i per cent to 32 per cent. The/ have
, conio down to the deadline in that
. j way, and what i sthe result ? The
, i result is that those 13,000 taxpayers
I on the upper side of that line are to
| get afurther reduction in their taxes,
J a little stipend from the pwopla of
j thn I'nited States, of $90,000,000 a
I year, while those 600,000 taxpayers,
earning between $5,00 and $68,000 a
j jear by toil and investment and ail the
efforts which characterise the miacel
11aiieous population of the country , get
I a reduction of only $18,000,000 on ac
j count of the surtax.
"Kvery single solitary man who
stands on the upper side of that line
—this mobilized army of millionaires
that has just finished its successful
drive against Congress and the Na
tional Treasury— r haa got his surtax
rate cut. It has been cut more than
one-half."
THE LOSS BY FIKII
| The total value of all farm crops in
I North Carolina 1920 was $413,000,009.
I That was a hundred millions short °t
I the 1919 values. And the 1919 values
were one hundred millions short of
being enough to pay the United
States dollar lire-loss bill for 1920.
And the death loss irreparable. Fon
der over it.
If all the men, women, and children
in the I'nited States could hurry by
the seeting crater of Vesuvius at the
rate of three persons a second, and if
each cast into its all-destroying depth*
a five dollar gold piece, and continued
to do so day and night for a year,
the money thus destroyed would near
ly equal our 1920 fire waste of over
$500,000,(MM). If,' in addition, about
every half hour one of this rushing
timing usually a 'woman or child—
should fall into that sea of molten
lava, the 15,(KM) lives lost, would ap
proximate America's human sacrifice
of lives to lire last year. Fonder over
it.

as the towu of Dunn and the county of
