ROSS-BONNER Miss Gladys Bonner announces the. marriage of her sister, Gayneile, to Mr. Mark Craven Ross, of Williams ton, N. C., on Saturday, July 8, 1939 at First Methodist church, Washing ton, N. C. At home after July 17th in Wiliiamston. In the presence of relatives and a few intimate friends, Miss Gayneile Bonner became the bride of Mr. Mark Craven Ross, of Wiliiamston, in a ceremony performed Saturday, July 8th, at two o'clock in the after noon at the First Methodist church. The marriage vows were spoken by the Rev. L. B. Jones, pastor of the church. Immediately following the cere mony, Mr. and Mrs. Ross left for a wedding trip, to be at home in Wil iiamston after July 17. Mrs Ross is well known and has a wide circle of friends in Washing ton where for a number of years she has been a member of the faculty of the John Small school Proposed Cotton Bounty Seed As Aid To Japan, Germany Would Make Product Avail able to Foreign Buyers At Cheaper Price Washington ? Japan and Ger many. whose territorial expansion activities have been criticized sharp ly by the American government, are among the leading potential ^ benr (iciarics of the administrations pro posal to pay a bounty on cuttun. and possibly lard, sold abroad. For years, both nations have been among the largest users of American cotton, Germany particularly before she embarked upon a "self-sufticien cy" program which emphasized the production of cotton substitutes The cotton export subsidy program designed to help the United States reduce an unwieldly surplus and regain what officials call the na tion's "fair share" of the world mar kets, would make the product avail able to foreign buyers at about $10 a bale below domestic prices. The government's loan program has been credited with having held prices of the American cotton above world levels, thereby causing a sharp loss gn sales; The extent to which Japan may ii.ocn hv loroien trade! reports that she took lti per cent of American cotton exports during the 1023 33 period and 2ti per cent during the tirst nine months of the current marketing season. Japan's purchases this season, totaling 806,000 bales, are slightly larger than those of the Unit ed Kingdom and France combined, totaling 739,000 bales. However, during the 1923.-33 per iod, the United Kingdom took about 23 pei cent, averaging 1,604.000 bales and France 11 per cent, averaging 786,000 bales. Although exports to the United Kingdom are less than half what they were a year ago. Agri culture Department officials expect the United Kingdom to be the larg est buyer under the subsidy pro gram. The percentage of American cotton shipped to German this season was <1 p. or 292,00" b"l..s,_cumpar-{ ed with 23 per cent, or 1,638.000 bales in the 1923-33 period. Foreign trade reports indicate that Japan plans to replenish depleted stocks of American cotton when the subsidy program is inaugurated. The extent to which Germany might in crease purchases is not known. The Agriculture Department's attache in Berlin reports, however, that the textile industry in that nation and in annexed Austria and Czechoslova kia has slowed down because of a raw material shortage Officials said the German's chief difficulty was u shortage of foreign exchange with which to finance cot ton purchases. However, any action which lowered the price of cotton would make available exchange go further than at present. Officials anticipate that subsidiza tion of cotton exports to Germany and Japan would draw some criti cism. They explained that the de partment was without authority to deny those countries the benefits so long us the United Stutes maintained diplomatic and trade relations with them. The department has not decided definitely whether it will subsidize lurd xports. Prior to 1933. Germany took about one-third of America s lard shipments. Under a wtieut ex port subsidy program inaugurated last August, Germany has bought about 2,000,000 bushels at prices av eraging about 25 cents a bushel be in w domesticpricea.

There is a continuous and increas ing demand on the part of the con suming public for quality eggs Egg quality, in general, involes the sue, shape, color and shell tex ture from an external standpoint. Internally, the air cell should be firm, small and regular; the percent of firm albumin should be large; the -yulk?shtmld?htrvy?a standing?up" quality; the egg should be free from blood spots, embryo dcvelopment, foreign bodies, and obnoxious odors and tastes. To get this quality under summer conditions, says Prof. Roy S. Dear styne, head of the State College Poul try Department, see to it that only infertile eggs are produced. "Aside from breeding purposes, the m?le*i serve no useful purpose in the flock. Fertile eggs develop rapidly during warm weather and definite embryos may be observed in several days in such eggs." he said. "Poultry men should also avoid dirty nests," he continued. "Dirty nests mean soiled eggs which must be cleaned before marketing. Eggs should never be washed unless they arc to enter channels ofTnimediate consumption. ?'Eggs shoo ||< he .-oll.-.tt'd ^Vi-ral times each day. In hot weather this is a necessity, since summer heat plus moisture leads to a breaking down of the white and the yolk of the egg and the air cells become greatly enlarged due to rapid evap oration On collection, the eggs should be stored in a cool moist room at a temperature ranging from 32 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit." Finally Prof. Dearstyne recom mended that summer eggs be can- , died and that frequent deliveries be made, especially where storage fa cilities are inadequate. To Visit Reach Mrs. J. S Rhodes, Mrs. Daisy Pur vis and Mrs. J G. Godard l('ave to morrow for Pamlico Beach where they will spend several days. Mr. "Doc" Jones, of Raleigh, visit ed here yesterday.
