B. BRANDON Ttfbacco worms, are well-known pests to North Carolina tobicco grow ers. There are two kinds of worms * responsible for the damage, as most glowers well know: (1) The tobacco bud worm; (2) the tobacco horn worm. These pests cause many thousands of dollars damage to the tobacco crop each year and growers should make every/ effort to control these insects. Control The tobacco bud worm is closely related to the corn ear worm and feeds in the tips of the growing plants. The best known method of control is to apply poisoned corn meal to the buds. Mix one pound of arsenate of lead with 75 pounds of corn meal (or 6 heaping teaspoonfuls of arsenate of ejead to 1 peck of corn meal). Carefully plix the poison through out the corn meal. The meal should not contaiu much coarse husk. Aliout 12 pounds of- the mixture (arsenate of lead and corn meal) or I peck per acre is necessary for each aplication. Caution: Do not substitute Paris green, calcium arsenate, or any «ther poison for the arsenate of -lead. Do not substitute any other material for the corn meal. A small pinch of the poison mixture should be dropped into the center of the bud. Applications carelessly made are of no value. When- the buds are closed they should be opened with one hand and the mixture dropped in with the other. Do not apply too much of the poison mixture as an overdose will injure the plants. FroM three to five aplications dur ing a season will usually give control. Applications should be begun when a careful examination of the buds show that the worms are becoming numer ous. The applications should be made a week apart. (From F. B. 1531 U. S. I) A.) Tobacco Horn Worm The tobacco horn worm is well known by all tobacco growers. The damage by this pest is often very se vere. Arsenate of lead applied as a oust has given best results in the con trol of the horn worm. As a dust, the arsenate of lead should be applied at :hi rate of 3 1-2 to 5 pounds per acre. It applied as a spray, used from 3 to 4 pounds of arsenate of lead to 100 gallons of water. The "one-in-six" mixture (1 pound of Paris green with 5 pounds of ar senate of lead) used for the flea beetle will control the horn worm. See cir cular on Tobacco Flea Beetle for in formation about the tobacco flea beetle. (}rom F. B. 1356 U. S. D. A.) Caution: Use only poisons which are adviaed. Do not substitute any other material for those reconjmended.

SHERIFF SELLS LAND FOR TAXES 227 Parcels of Land Sold For Unpaid Taxes Here Yesterday For an hour and a half yesterday, the county tax colector's hammer was raised and allowed to fall on 277 tracts or parcels of land in Martin County, making one of the largost tax 4alcs in the history of the county, Property at more than a hall million dol lars was affected by the sale, that the approximately SIO,OOO taxes unpaid might be accounted for when the col lector makes his report to the com missioners next 1 month.' Competition was practically absent during the sale yesterday, ti»- county purchasing 231 tax receipts and sever al individuals taking in a total of 46. Mi. D. (•. Matthews, of Hamilton, who has been making large purchases during the past several years, took no part in the «sale yesterday, and except for the few individual buyers, the county acquired the receipts. Last year the sale affected 160 tracts or parcels of laud, valued at $-100,000, indicating that the delin quents are included, as a whole, in the list of small property owners. Par cels were sold yesterday where the tax was> less than a dollar, and a goodly number were placed on the bloc!* where the tax was only a few dollars. Colored property owners in William ston led the list with 32 sales.. Their brethren in, Jamesville Township were a close second with 30 sales.

CURB TRUCKING Warehousemen Post SSOO As Forfeit If Ruling Is Violated Apparently looking upon the truck ing of tobacco directly or indirectly by as a cut-throat measure, tobacconists at their meeting held in Greenville last Saturday entered into another agreement in an effort to withhold trucks owned and operated indirectly by the houses from the roads, according to reports received here. Each warehouse is to put up a |6OO guarantiee assuring its recogni tion of the order. Rules were offered whereby a check can be made, and it is believed that the trucking business will be controlled during the coming season. ~* * The warehousemen have found the practice very expensive, and the small markets have suffered as they were unable to go into the outlying districts with trucks. • Town Tax Collector Sells 60 Tracts of Land Monday Sixty tracts of land were sold by the town tax collector here/ yesterday to satisfy unpaid taxes. Fifty-two of the tracts were bought in by the town, on ly eight purchases being made by in dividuals.

The thin G ray Line has been narrow ed gradually until there remain only three or lour of those wfco took part in the struggle, and not' one of that number could make the trip to Char lotte, there to meet old comrades and recall the happenings experienced 60 years ago. The county's offer to provide rail road fare could not be accepted, age and feebleness preventing the three or four veterans from making the trip. Eight of the local scouts with Mr. Wheeler Martin and C. B. Clark, jr. are attending the reunion, assisting in caring for the veterans from other counties and states. Cool Weather Again Brings Out Overcoats The cold weather here yesterday brought back overcoats and caused the kindling many fires.

J. Peel, yesterday afternoon at two o'clock, the board and mayor entering immediately upon the duties of their offices. With paving bids to be opened and considered and almost endless number of minor things to be handled, Mr. N. C. Green, new member, had no time to deliver his inaugural ad dress, and the exercises went by in a hurry and without features. After hearing and discussing the eleven paving bids, a greater part of the afternoon, the new officers met in regular session last night, handling routine matters and perfecting an or -1 ganization. A number of changes, j some of them more or less marked ones, featured the last night meeting, t indicating a very business-like and economical administration during the next two years. Stating that he was tired of the burdens connected with the town's treasury, Mr. W. T. Mea dows made arrangements to turn the books over to Mr. N. C. Green, the new treasurer selected by a unanimous vote of the body. Mr. Green accepts the office without compensation. The organization perfected last night: Mayor Protein—L. P. Lindsley Treasurer—N.

Dobie Company, auditors, was hired to make the town audit, the work to be started at once. Arrangements were made to purchase insurance for' town employees that the compensation act might be met. The addition of. street lights, requested by several people, was called to tfte attention of a special committee.. Messrs. G. H. Harrison and C. O. Moore were ap pointed to formulate a water rate whereby collections might be made' monthly instead of quarterly as has been the custom in the past. Ar-I rangements have been made with thej Farmers and Merchants bank here to' haijdle all water collections, the method being similar to the one now followed by the light and power com pany. There will be no marked change in the water rates under the proposed monthly system, but it is the opinion of the oflWiala that a saving will re sult as teaks and bad accounts can be handled more promptly than was aible under the/quarterly system. The change will J* made at the end of this month*M is thought. —, i—* Hold Another Baseball ...

The amount allotted the county lor the operation of its schools' dur ing the l"2"-30 term is larger by $13,-] 344.75 than the amount received last; year The county's share in the fund Lift year was $32,192.15. The amount already allotted this county v.ill be increased when a- fund of. $1,250,000, what is called a tax re duction fund, is distributed. This fund is used in defraying .cpsts of the ex tended term, each district receiving "as near as may be" the same percent age of cost for the two extra months as it receives for the six months. Just what Martin's part will be is unknown but it is understood that the total al lotment will lie less than the amount expected here. There are two other funds, out of s>o,ooo tor supervision in the rural schools, anil another is an emergency fund of $300,000 to be used in' the counties having the poorer schoolj. The equalization board has already awarded $130,001) of the $300,000 to 40 counties, but the distribution of that amount has not been announced at this time. 'T'lie board will meet again in about thru weeks, it is understood, when the uork will lie continued The 90 counties which participated last year were decreased by $4,981,872 in determined valuation, the largest de crease going to Beaufort, which was tr.mi 131,222,248 to $2'>.X22.4X [he valuation given property in this county by the equalization board was $19,130,- 8/9, two or three million dollars more than the actual valuation recorded by the list takers. While the valuation v/os reduced considerably in Beaufort, it remains about the same in Martin, causing one to wonder how the equali zation hoard arrives at its conclusions. The largest beneficiaries of the dis tribution announced are » Robeson, $113,631.85; Johnston, $110,221.46; Sampson, $109,496.65; Union, $105,- 491.03; and Columbus, $104,076.44. 'llie distribution is based on the two factors of "determined valuations" and "approved budgets." For the moist p&rt, the values, remained substantially tin same as last year. The valuation foi the entire State was raised by $36,- 989.814 to $3,232,350,337. Explanatory Statement "The State Board (if Equalisation iir making distribution of t ( he $4,950,000 Equalization 'Fund provided as aid in the support of the six mouths' school term found it necessary to use some cH.icrelionary power lodged with the board by the last General Assembly in regard to that portion of the school cost shared by the State as folUiws: "1. By increasing the teaching sal ary budget in those counties, where, jn the opini in of the Board, the limitation in the law of one .teacher for each' 32 pupils in the elementary schools, and one teacher for eScli 27 pupils in the high schools ,would not be a sufficient "htunber of teachers to carry on the, work efficiently. Each county was re quested to submit a statement showing in detail the organization of, their schools in order that the board might j study the needs thus shown.- Ninety three counties subletted such state ments and, with but few exceptions, it v ;.i found necessary to increase the number of teacher# over that .which would have been allowed by.the pro vision stated above. It was felt that there had not been sufficient time for n.uch accomplishment in organizing the schools to more nearly approach the limitation provided for State par ticipating purposes. Many counties have indicated intention to do much in this ilirection the next year. "2. By increasing the transportation allowance of $8 per pupil transported, as provided by law, whereveA the same could be sufficiently justified by the facts presented. The total amount al lowed any county for transportation, however, could not exceed 15 per cent of the salary budget. Several coun ties, under this provision, had their transportation sum increased. "The total value of the State as de termined by , the board is $3,232,350,- 337. This is an the total u«lue fixed one year ago of $36,989,- Ail 3, but represents a decrease of $4,- 941,872 the 90 original participating County Board Has All-Day Session; Routine Matters About All Considered A bit monotonous, no doubt, was ; the all-day session of the county's board of commissioners in regular ses- i sion here yesterday when the authori- j ties heard a number of tax complaints j and handled the regular monthly busi ness. Other than the adjustment of ! tax charges, the minutes of the meet- ! ing record only three or four acts, and one or two of them amount to little, j That the spell of quietness might be interrupted upd the life of the in mates made more cheerful, a sls or- j gan was ordered placed in the county home. ' e* Mr. R. A. Pope, superintendent of the county's schools was re-elected to head the public welfare work "in this county. A formal request was ordered filed j with the State Highway commission,l asking that body to apply allocation 1 of county aid road fund to county during coming year, and until further notice have tj»e amount used in the payment of interest and principal 011 the county's road and bridge bonds. Several orders'--relieving property owners of taxes where errors were found, follow: B. G. Modlin released from the pay ment of taxes in Jamesville township. Mo. G. Leggett, released from pay ment of taxes on SSOO. property valua tion in Robersonville township. J. A. Taylor, colored, relieved of taxes on $950. property valuation in Robersonville township. Leslie Kerry released from payment of tuxes on SI,OOO property valuation listed in Hear Grass township. Mrs. M. W. Sullivan, released from payment of $34.76 taxes in Jamesville township. Fannie Varrell, colored, released from payment of taxes on s3oo."prop erty valuation, in Williams township. " A POISON FOR BEAN BEETLE County Agent Gives For mula for Control of -- Insect With many requests reaching the county agent as to the best method of controlling the Mexican bean beetle, Mr. Hrandon has given the matter close study and offers here a formula ! that is declared to be very effective in the control of the insect. Many peo ple are afraid to eat the beans after they have been dusted, hut the agent recommends washing the vegetable well before cooking, and then if you are in doubt as to the safety in eating 1 the beans, he suggests that you send j them to. him for his table. The formula recommended by Mr. liiandon: "To control Mexican bean beetle, I use one pound of calcium arsenate or | one [)ound pf arsenate., of lead to nine jWunds of hydrated lime and dust lightly over beans about 10 pounds per acre. Have the poison well mixed with the lime. It should be applied with a duster or shaken out of a thin cloth bag, if a duster can't be found. The beans should be "dusted once every weeV or after each rain to control the insect." -a! 4-H Club Boys and Girls Leave Monday for Camp j Martin county 4 H club boys andj | girls with Miss Lora E.

The values fixed"hy the be ard last year were used as a basis for the values as now determined. These values were arrived at after dil igent investigation and study and in a Ki'iat many instances,further compar ison brought no change. In others Corrections were made corresponding 1 to the increases or decreases that have ' apparently taken place in the county. 1 In addition a number of corrections, a ' resiflt of more complete information and pergonal study, were made. "It will be remembered t{iat the ' board was forced to make a horizontal 1 . * *' increase in value last year in order to , have a sufficient amount* to balance the ' budget with the equalization fund a vailahle. The fund this time was not sufficiently large to allow a decrease and still use the 30-cent rate. Conse quently it is not now the contention cf the board that the values fixed rep- Vcfen the true of the Counties. It is believed that a relativity as be tween the values of the various coun ties has been approximated as nearly as is humanly possible, Advertiser* Will Find Oar Col umns * Latchkey to Oyer 1.600 Homes of Martin County ESTABLISHED 1898 111 BIDS RECEIVED ON PAVING WORK TO BE DONE HERE No Contract Let At Meet ing Yesterday Pending Investigation , j ♦ BIDS ARE VERY LOW I, . * Prices Are Very Low, According to !

The bids, j covering every phase of work included in tha improvement program, ranged , from $42,199.50 to $50,000.00, several I varying in their amount no more than SSOO. i t ntil thorough investigations are made, the commissioners are* retain ing J. G. Clark and Company, of Greonviller Frank L. Saunders, of Winston Salem; and E. S. Waters, of Beaufort, the bids of these contractors varying littfc in the amounts! In preparing the bids the contract tors were asked to take into consider ation the several types of paving, mixtures, top coatings, manholes, drains, driveways, curbs and gutters, storm drains, the widening of the main street and a number of other , items. The three smallest bids and* the ones held for further considera tion, were of such :» nature that should one particular kind of paving or mix ...lujfc be chimen,. a .ieyeiaal in :the~ar.- -der of the bids would result. Where one would bid two cents higher on. the square yard of sidewalk, he would be two cents lower per square yard on the street work, causing a cotnbina-. 1 tion that the commissioners hesitated , to accept either one of the proposals without further investigating the con . ditions. Sidewalk paving will be done for around $1.16 per square yard and the street paving will cost around $1.65, according to a study of the three bids now in the hands of the local com missioners. For the sum of around I $42,199.50, the town will get 17,000 yards of sidewalks, ,6,000 square yards of streets and the main thoroughfare widened, contractors | stating that it is the largest improve- I merit program at the smallest cost l that has been- attempted ill "a long , time iji this section.
