of a special design, minimize the ef
fort of rail ing or lowering the win
down. Door bumpers insure a tighter
fitting, and new door grips, both in
side and out add to the rider's con
venience.
Tho demand for Ford enclosed cars
has been unusually high during tin
I ast two months. Although production
Ims,hen speeded pin the Ford factor}
at Detroit, sales continue Iff CXceei
the output, making it necessary for
purchasers in many parts of the coun
try to wait for their cars. Local den'
'ers say this is the reason they have
been urging their customers to place
their orders as early as possible,
be able to pay the amount they owe
on their peanuts. There is nothing
that would please the Peanut Trust
more than to see them lose every pea
nut they have and every cent they owe
on them which is |1,000,000 borrowed
from the War Finance Corpoartion
and $300,000 from some banks of Suf
folk.
The Peanut Trust calims
unfair for the farmers to go to clearP"
in gtl eir own peas. Well that may
be true but still there has never yet
ben a law preventing a persons from
kicking a leech from his back. Bui
as I said, the Exchange does not want
to build new factories and will lers
or buy the properly of the Trust at
any time, but Mr. Peanut Mill-Man.
do not think that the farmers ar
ever going to trust you to gradr
weigh and price their peanuts again.
You claim that you have $ 10,000,07,
in machinery which may be true but
you made it. out of the peanut farmer;
while they only have the same land
they began with. Yo have your mil
lions and they have to content then-,
selevs with a meagre existenoe.
The farmers who are members of
the Exchange are going to stick tight
er than ever before for they will not
stand for such attacks on their or
ganization which is not offensive but
defensive .and farmers may look for
ward to further payments on peanuts
in the Exchange. Dont be faint-heart
•d; stand to the guns and batter pricei
much better prices will be the reward.

into thed ining room where delicious
cream and cake were served. There
was a huge birthday cake adorned
with ten candles in the center of the
table surrounded by silver candle
sticks and bowls of pink roses which
made the table very beautiful. Favors

SUPPOSE THESE WERE
CHILDREN OF YOURS
Thirty-three little children entrust
ed to the sacred care of North Caro
lina are dependent on Martin county
for their lives, and unless the got
people here come to the rscue, many
of them must bo turned out of 1 j
Near East Relief orphanage to sturva
on July Ist. There will be no other
alternative. )
This message is sent to the good
people of Martin county at Eastertide
by Colonel George H. Bellamy of Ral
eigh, state chairman. Most counties
of the state have put on an active
campaign. Col. Bellamy has been un
able to secure anyone in Martin coun
ty so far to undertake the responsi
bility of doing this.
To date the sum of $44.80 has been
sent in to the state office entirely un
solicited from Martin county, whose
share of the Stifle's quota is $1,980
This shows what & wonderful appeal
Hie plight of these chidlreh has on tl
heart strings and purse strings of
those who know of tho Near East Re
lief and its work.
This sum is not quite enough to
take care of one of these "wards" of
Martin county, and if the remainder
is not forthcoming by June 80th; all
of the children who are not provided
for by that time must be turned ou,
of tse orphanages to starve.
In view of the fact that ho hn
unable to secure a chairman in Mar
tin county, Colonel Bellamy has issued
tliis appeal to the Christian-hearted
people of Martin iounty. He points
out that for every $6 sent in, the life
of one of these children will be spared
for a month.
Many prsonß are "adopting" one of
Ihese children by agreeing to fiay $5
1 month for the period of a year,
'ledgo cards can be secured from
Robert A. State treasurer,
Raleigh and contributions should be
sent to him.
In oppealing to the people of Mar
tin county toe aid tho Near East Re
lief in raising its quota in North Car
olina this year Coolnel Bellamy sain
"Many of these children are victims I
of the great war when their fathers
were killed in defeaa of th vast I
oil fields. Armenia lost 300,000 troops
in this action. Military experts agree
that failure of the central powers to
get this precious oil supply for h
war machine caused Germany's sud
den collapse and thereby shortened the
war by a number of months.
"They were killing men og a.t the
rate of 10,000 a day when the wai
ended, and it can be readily seen that
had it lasted six months; a month, 01
even a wfeek longer there are many
North Carolina boys back home today
who would otherwise be sleeping be
neath a wooden cross in France.
"North Carolina cannot see the chil
dren of these heroes starve or freeze
to death.
"Then there are children in these
orphanages whose parents gave uj
their lives to stop the onward march
of Mohammedanism and prevent the
Moslems from stamping out Chris
tianity in Armenia. We give millions
to spread the doctrine of Jesus Chri
in heathen lands, and yet theae people
"gave their lives to prevent th spread
of the doctrine of Mohammed in Chrii
tian lands. Is it not Christianity's
duty to aee that their children do not
die tho horrible death of starvation ?
"We are also feeding 650,000 ref
ugees made destitute by devastation
broght on by the Turks in their hate
for Christianity. All industries and
crops have been demolished and the
Turks were only driven out of Ar
menia last August. We are hoping
that itfhen the crops are harvested
late this summer we will be able to
cut down our appropriatons for feed
ing these adult refugees."

Now is the time to make sure
we do not fail next fall.
A sure foundation is to nudci your
living at home.
No matter whether you belong to
the* Cooperative Association or not,
dont plant too much of anything. If
you do, for or against Cooperation,
you will sustain loaa. So cooperate on
a small acreage at least.
The slogan: "Do AWay With the

sow in abruzii rye and crimson clo
ver, using one buahel of rye mvd 2U
pounds of clover per acre for fall and
winter grazing.
If hogs on poor pasture are being
fed grain mix a little tankage
with the grain and note reeulta.
There is considerable complaint of
hogs having weak backs. This in caus
ed largely from unbalanced feed. Sul
phur, charcoal, lime salt and wood
ashes kept before the hogs at all time*
is a great help. Try it

good but rape grown in rows through
the season ia probably
may be grazed.
Beana andn eaa are selling around

should bo greater 4his season and the

Many of us resolved to plant better

I believe that many will agree with
me that waiting a while and planting
