PAGE FOUR N.C. DELEGATES IN FIST FIGHT Pight Revolves Around At " tempt To Carry State Standard in Parade Back in 1776, Thomas Jefferson, in his famous religious freedom declar ation, paved the way for a flat fight ii, * National Democratic Convention in 1928. And the fight becomes of marked interest when we read and find a citisen from a near-by town in the center of it. Wednesday xiisrht in the Houston Convention, when Senator Robinson of Arkansas, referred to ihe quota tion from Jefferson's religious free dom declaration, W. O. Saunders, editor of the Elisabeth City Inde pendent, considered it an appropriate time to enter A 1 Smith's banner in the parade of the delegates around the convention UHoor. Opponents of Al Smith's nomination refused to eee ihe banner go and a fight start ed. The police rushed in and put their night sticks to bear, but no one was hurt very badly Hut in the rush, the North Carolina banner made one round and when it started by the spot reserved for the N. C. delegation, the opposers of Smith, religious freedom or something, yanked it from the rankß. The news of the tight was sweet to the ears of many people in thi section; for it was their belief that the Eliiabeth City editor had been whipped. Just how l>a(tty—Mr. Saun ders faired could not be definitely learned, .but U is understood that former lieutenant governor N'ewlaml, of Lenoir county, chairman of the N. C- delegation and T. I>. Warren, a delegate from this State and sev eral others received injured hands in the mix-up. ■> DO YOU WANT A BOOK TO READ The Library Commission of North Carolina will lend toiresi dents of the State without library facilities Itooks on any sulject, whether for pleasure or study.

Professor Haig states that succulent feed is important in the dairy business not only for the main tenance of healthy cows, but also for the amount and quality of milk pro duced. "* •-% H RIDGE METHOD IN CULTIVATING TOBACCO PAYS C ultivation of tobacco on a ridge as compared with level or flat culture has meant a difference of SSO an acre on many farms in North Carolina during the past k'ttr or five In all of our demonstrations, the ridge method of cultivation has proven itself superior,' f.ays E. Y. Floyd, to bacco specialist at State College. 'This system of cultivation will make the hard, peaked tobacco that wc now have mi account of the cold wet spring de velop new roots. Y\ hen the tobacco is sided, if the grower will put all the soil to the plant that it will take and then scatter the middles deeper than the siding furrow, this will drain the water from tl'ie tobajco and cause the soil to warm up much faster. This method of cultivation is best for all JN. C.

Put ail the toil to the plant that it will stand. and it will coon begin to spread and look like a new plant.' Mr. Floyd states that on account-of the poor season this spring, the culti vation of the tobacco crop will be one of the main factors in determining whether good yields of quality leaf will be made. , Reasonably early tobacco usually makes the best quality and generally just as good a yield per acre as any other planted during the sea- For some five years now, Mr. Floyd has been advocating the ridge method of cultivating the crop and lately he lias prepared extension folder number 27, which describes this method in de tail'. The 1 folder is well illustrated with drawings showing how to develop the ridges.
