LAD FINDS $98.00 AND RETURNS IT TO THE OWNER Finder Is Person Diogenes Sought Many Years Ago In Greece Diogenes, the old Greek philoso pher, would have been happy had he been in Goldsboro Friday night. It is told of him that he walked about the streets at Athens in the day time with a lanter in his hand trying to find an honest man He would have found an honest man, or rather an honest boy, if he had b^tn in Goldsboro Friday night. Jim Berry Parks, farmer of Sulston Township, lost a pockctbook contain ing $98 and some receipts and other papers wile attending a carnival at the intersection of Elm and Slocumb streets in Goldsboro.

Imore jobs are ! BEING FOUND State Office Placing Many Unemployed Who Have Been Registered I Raleigh. 'Mute tad aotg fobs are : being found for those who have reg istered with the National Reemploy- i the total of unplaced registrants is be jing steadily redu-ed each week, ac cording to Cap us M. Waynick, state | director of reemployment. For the week ending October 16, on which the records have just been compiled, 2,051 [registrants were placed in new jobs. In the corresponding week in .August, only 1,722 registrants were placed in j jobs. I The unplaced balance of registrants for the week ending October 16 was 82,366, while for ihe corresponding week in August, the unplaced balance was 87,347. Thus the nttmber of un placed registrants has decreased almost *,000 n illiin 60 din [ The placement of world war vet erans who have been unemployed is increasing more rapidly than the num ber of new registrations of veterans, the figures show. During the week ending October 16, only 49 veterans I registered while 217 were placed in jobs, leaving the unplaced balance of veterans at 5,060. In the correspond- i tf?g week in August, the new regi&tra- . tion of veterans was 63, and the num- j ber placed in jobs was 247, while the unplaced registration was 5,661, or 601 greater than the unplaced balance at i the present time. The new registration of unemploy- 1 ed persons the week of October 16 was 1,306, re-registrations of those 1 who had not registered since last year was 582, and renewal registrations of those w ho are keeping their registra tions up to date numbered" 2,334. -For^1 the corresponding week in August new registrations numbered 1,474, re-regis trations from the previous year a mounted to 584, renewals to 2,056. , | Tobacco Stems and Stalks Have Value as Fertilizer ? There is a certain percentage of ni trogen, phosphoric acid and potash coii tained in both stalks and stems of to bacco that have fertilizing val^e. The potash content runs from 4 to 8 per r*w? still iIip nitiuBtn mm from 3.S to 3.S per cent. The phosphoric acitT content runs less tlian 1-2 of 1 per cent. In addition to the fertilizer val- j ue the flowing under of stalks and all i tobacco refuse, will also aid in the con- | trol of many disease and insect pests. ? Several Causes lor High Death Rate in Flock Errors in the feeding and manage ment often cause a high death rate in poultry flocks. He sure that the birds have a balanced mash, reinforc ed with cod liver oil. The poultry house should be properly ventilated and not over-crowded. If no errors are found in the feeding ^md-howing^ several specimens of the dead birds together with a complete history should be sent to the poultry depart ment at State College for autopsy and report. |COTTON QUOTAS FOR 1935 TO BE 25 PERCENT BIGGER Cotton Surplus Has Been Greately Reduced By Control Program Raleigh.?Cotton allotments for 1935, under the adjustment contracts, will be 25 per cent larger than they were this year. This year a grower who had a base of 10 acres was allotted six acres to j plant Next year he probably will be allotted seven and a half acres, accord ing to Dean I. O. Schaub, of State College. The increase in allotments to be al lowed is due largely to the fact that the cotton program has removed most of the surplus cotton that was respon sible for the low prices of 1932, and growers can now start producing as much cotton as is consumed each year, the dean explained. The exact size of the allotments will J not be announced, Schaub added, un * til the AAA cotton section finishes its study of the cotton situation, includ ing both domestic and foreign mar kets. Growers who have already signed contracts will keep the contracts they have, while non-signers will be given another chance to join the program and participate in the rental and ben efit payments. Schaub pointed out that the refer endum to be conducted on the Bank head Act' will in no way affect the AAA adjustment program, since the contracts were signed for a two-year period, with the provision that the Secretary of Agriculture could termi nate them at the end of one year if necessary. When the referendum is conducted, the growers will have a chance to make known their wishes in regard to wether those who haye.signed con tracts wish to be protected by the Bankhead act from growers who do j not sign, he observed. Unless the act is continued, he said, j non-signers wil be able _ to increase i their production as much as they wisji J and offset much of the work done by the signers in eliminating the surplus , and bringing the prices back to a fairer level. I ? t DEATH OF MRS. S. H. ROEBUCK Died at Home Near Rober sonville Early Sunday j Morning Robersopville, N. C, November 1. ?Mrs. Sallie Roebuck, 67 years old, died at her home near here early last j Sunday morning following an illness \ of several days' duration. Heart trouble was given as the immediate' cause of her death. Mrs. Roebuck was a Miss Blount, of .

A total of 3401 pounds of feed will add the required | amount in a period of ten weeks. The | feeds include 30 pounds of fish meal , or tankage, 120 pounds of corn meal, j 20 pounds of wheat shorts, and 170 pounds of shetted corn. The first three items are fed as a slop mixture with the corn being fed separtely. Feed requirements for certain weight pigs and the approximate gain in weight for definite periods are given in Extension Circular No. 143, copies of which may be had by writing the Agricultural Editor at State College. | Pender Hog Growers Get $12,000 Corn-Hog Money ?

"Queen of the carbohydrates'* it has been termed because it furnishes sugar in its purest and most concrete form. Hs fruit sugar is ready for im mediate absorption and is most easily | assimilable For those who would satisfy their sweet tooth, it is the safest "candy" in the world. Nature has made the. raisin desirable in looks and perfect to ' eat just as it is. The deiicicras grape.1 sun-kissed and sun-dried, it creates an abundance of health-giving properties with its precious vitamins. Raisins are of the best fall and winter foods, as they ^upply heat and energy. They also are high in organic i tin whirh is easily ntilired and hslps replenish the red corpuscles. No matter how raisins are eaten, they always prove delectable. Most people prefer them alone. They are excellent used with nuts, as the pro tein and fat content is low and nuts, high in both, balance this lack. Serv ed in salads, they are always sure of making a pleasing and nourishing ad dition to the rest of the meal. Many people will make an entire meal of raisins and realize a glorious health feeling hard to compete with in the ordinary everyday foods A few recipes where raisins enhance he health value follow: Raiain Mounda 1 c. shredded carrots 1 c. celery Mayonnaise and lettuce 1 c. seedless raisins. ?n*1nry j" rmail pjfffs and add carrots and raisins. Mix all well and blend with mayonnaise to taste. Serve on small mounds on lettuce leaves. Fit-for-aKing Salad 2 c. shredded cabbage, 2 c. minced apple, 1 c. seedless raisins, 1-2 c. pecan meats, Lettuce and Mayonnaise. Mix all together as given and blend with mayonnaise. Serve on lettuce leaves. Raisin Date Balls ?Run equal parts of seeded raisins, stoned dates and any desired kind of nut meats through' the fine blafle of the food chopper. Mix well, kneading, -then form ed nuts same as used Unfired Fruit Cake Run two parts of seedless raisins I and one part black figs (dried) through the food chopper and mix' thoroughly. Mould in two flat layer ? tins, slightly moistened with olive oil. j When set (may be chilled), make a filling of dry shredded cocoanut mois- ' tened well with honey and place be-1 tween layers. Thin with water a small portion of dates which have been run through the finest cutter of the food | chopper and rubbed to a paste with the back ot I spoon, until it Is of a creamy consistency, then spread over ! top and sides of entire cake. Sprinkle surface with minced nuts, almonds being most tasty with this combina tion.

The program growing out of a lack of sufficient hay, which used to be one of the liveatock man's chief con cerns, has been solved to a great ex-i tent by making spring hay from cereal grains and using hardy legumes plant ed in the fall. So far, however, little progress has been made in developing good pas tures, says A. C. Kimrey, extension dairyman at State College. Many pasture failures, he adds, have been the result of attempting to start the pastuie on poor, unsuitable soft. Success with pastures can be a chirved only on good soil, he says,' either on bottom lands or fertile hill-' sides. The value of a good pasture growing on fertile soil is recognixed ' by all experienced livestock men, he points out. Pastures also serve the purpose of checking erosion. Grass on hillsides holds the soil in place, and on the lower lands it collects the earth which has washed down from higher places and keeps it from being carried away into creeks and streams. There are times when it it advisable or necessary to start pastures on poor er uplands, Kimrey has pointed out, altogether he did recommend this as a general practice. When placing pastures on such land, Bermuda grass set out in four foot rows makes the best grass. In ad dition the land should be seeded to Dallas grass at the rate of five pounds , to the acre and lespedeza at the rate of IS pounds to the acre. Kimrey saya that Bermuda trass can be kept from spreading Into ad-' jacent fields by cultivating the fields ^kenever any of the grass appears. { PAYMENTS FOR] COTTON LARGER THAN TAX LEVY Cotton Now Selling {or $30 Bale More Than Two Years Ago Tltt coat of tlx-exemption certifi cates for the excess cotton produced this year by growers who are cooper ating in the adjustment program will amount to only a fraction of their: rental and benefit payments. The 70,654 farms covered by con tracts will receive $6,467,000 in rental and benefit payments, while the extra certificates for these farms will cost $1,810,000. This estimate is based on the 646, 000-bale crop forecasted for North Carolina this year, according to Chas. A. Sheffield, of State College, state dfrector of the cotton program. By dividing the 90,500-bale produc tion of the contract signers above their allotments into the total rental and benefit payments, Sheffield said, it is found that the signers will re ceive $72 in these payments for each bale of excess cotton. Deducting $20 a bale for the9cost of i extra certificates, the signers still have benefit payments amounting to $52 for each excess bale, Sheffield , pointed out. In addition, he said, cotton is now selling for $50 a bale more than it brought in 1932 before the adjustment program started prices on their up ward climb. All non-signers who wish to obtain rental and benefit payments in 1935 will be given an opportunity to sign 1 contracts in the near future. Fall Is Good Time To Set Out Rose Bushes In sections where the temperature] does not go below 5 degrees F. fall planting of roses bushes is better than ! spring planting. Plants set this time usually make a good growth the first season. The planting, however, should not be done until the leaves have fall en from most of the trees and shrubs, and only field-grown, dormant plant* should be set. Where the tempera- . ture falls below 5 degrees, spring plant ] ing is better. Time and method of i planting the most popular kind of i roses, together with other information is given in Extension Circular 200, | "Home -Culture of-Rosca," copies of which may be had free upon appliea tion to the Agricultural Editor, State College. 4.H Dress Revue At State College On November 1st, The -State 4-H dress revue will be held at State College on .November 1. Girls who have won in the different county contests will compete for the honor of representing North Carolina at the national revue in Chicago early in December. The girls entering the contest have been required to wear the clothes they made. The girls are allowed to wear bought girles, brassieres, shoes, hose, hats, and glovea^ but all the garments must be made by themselves, said Miss Willie N. Hunter, extension clothing specialist at State College. S. W. Weston, of Hyde County, had I his fii?t experience with lespedeza this I seastm and produced two tons of hay ts Uh aars. * . Abundant rainfall has caused the | tallest growth of lespedeza in Cataw bar County in recent years. Farmers are cutting large quantities of it for hay.

Cotton is bringing around 12 cents this year and indications #re that the 1934 income will be larger than that in 1933. Prospects for the market in 1935 are also good, said Dean I. O. Schaub, of State Colle c "This substantial rise in prices shows one important reason why the Sooth is leading tU progress toward economic recovery," sai 1 the dean. "Prosperity in the South has a ten- j dency to rise and iall with the eco- I nomic status of the cotton growers." The program of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration in control ?urplus is largely responsible for tbe increased income of tbe cotton grow ers, he observed. In 1933, the growers started out with an increased acreage in a futile attempt to increase their incomg. Had the entire crop matured, the produc tion would have exceeded 17,500,000 bales. This amount added to the car ry-over would bave given the United States a supply of 29,000,000 bales. But the plow-up campaign in 1933 limited production to 13,000,00(l^ales. This year the reduction program limit ed the planting to 27,400,000 acres, on Durham tobacco growers say they will get 40 per cent more money from 50 per cent less tobacco this year COUGHS' Don't let them get a strangle hold.
