SUCCESSFUL SALES
BY TOBACCO CO-OPS
Such Successful Sales have been
made by the Tobacco Growers Co
ojerative Association to the important
leaf dealers and manufacturers that
cash advances have been increased on
the deliveries of tobacco by South
Carolina members and a second cash
payment will be made in the near fu
ture provided the members increase
thcii deliveries sufficiently within t"he
next two weeks
The system of marketing which
started smoothly at the August open
ing of the Cooperative warehouses in
South Carolina and Eastern North
Carolina is now in perfect working or
der and can handle very heavy de
liveries according to T C. Watkins,
manager of warehouses for the As
sociation.
' In a letter mailed this week to all
South Carolina members, M 0. Wilson
Secretary of the Association urges th
growers to aid in hastening the Sec
ond advance by delivering as rapidly
as possible. Secretary Wilson says
"O; t members have delivered to the
Tobacco Growers Cooperative Ass
aciatirn in the South Carolina Beli
ten million pounds but as the sales
department have made these sales and
can handle your tobacco as rapidly us
possible. If you will make the de
livery of your tobacco promptly you
will have rendered the Assoeiutipn
and yourself a service for you will, en
able your officers to make a secom.
payment at an earlier date and we
will save som eexpense in handling
the tobacco
On a new appraial that has been
made by the Danker committee the ad
vance w>ll be greater than it has bee.i
on wi.at h.ts been delivered, but the
growers that have delivered will
c*dv« the benefit of this .advance, in
the second payment, that if you
will make the deliveries as early a.'
you can get the tobacco in propei
condition it will mean an early distri
bution of the next payment."
Enthusiasm for the new marketing
plan is rapidly spreading form South
Carolina and the East to the old belt
of North Carolina and Virginia when
increasing numbers of growers art
joining the Cooperative every week.
SECRETARY ATTEMPTS

Secretary Hughes a great lawye:
and ex-judge of world fame has jus
written a great digest of the New

things Newberry and his friends, did
were not so bad after all. This de

avenues of time like the notabh

open September 18, 1922.
Every child between the ages of 6
and 21 is entitled to go excepting
the ones who have already finished
th eleventh grade.
Every pupil should be present the
first day to ensure the best mark for
themselves. If everyone gets an even
start the teacher can do better work.
Barents are urged to have the it
children on hand promptly. Children
coming to the age of six before thi
first of January may enter at the be
ginning.
A list ofbooks wiil be published it
good time to jnocute them. All th
books in the grades up to the seventh
can, be purchased at Anderson and
Crawford Co., who have also a latg>
supply of high school books.
The price of books will be found a
bout 75 per cent higher than hereto
fore. The reason is that during th
period of high war prices the publish
ers were under contract to furhisl
the state at a fixed price which the>
did, losing thousands of dollars. The
contract has expired now so we air
under a new conraca which is as low
as could be made, and is much lower
than the same books could be had with

The local merchant handling them on

A COLLEGE EDUCATION IN

No one can doubt that one of thi
greatest factors in bringing about the
high standing in agriculture of North

Union is the jvork of the State C

Since its feeble beginning thirty-threr
years ago in training young men to
help man the agricui'urul practices,
until today North Carolina is known
far and near as a State that has pro
gressed and is moving forward rapid
ly along all agricultural lines.
As the years have come and gone,
young men trained in Agriculture at
this College have gone back home in
to different lines of farming, and art
doing good farming themselves ami
are lending their efforts in many frayi
to help improve the agricultural and
other conditions of the communities in
which they have located in order that
all ot their farm neighbors may

Tho iinan who can plant legumr

vast acres of land throughout tin

soils rye should be grown "to as-win ■
extent as pruclicable. This crop wil
not only, when ploughed in, add ;
considerable amount of organic matlr
to the soil and thereby improve it
physical condition, but will redun

also provide a limited amount of graz
