Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Williamston Will Meet Erwin Here Thursday INiglit Williamston's Martins will enter tain the strong Erwin Red Birds on the local court Thursday night in what promises to be afast game. The contest will begin at eight o'clock. Vhis is the return game of a home and-home series between these two | clubs, the first game having been played in Erwin last month. The l score of that battle was 50-44 in favor of the Red Birds, and the Martins are still smarting from that defeat, and on top of that, this same Red Bird club defeated the Martins in the Rocky Mount tourney last Friday af ternoon in a consolation game be tween the teams that were beaten in the semi-finals The Martins went down by a 36 26 count in Una- gaftib. though it might have been a dif ferent story had all the Martin play ers been able to have been there.

However, ihis game sbotrid find the ehibii more evenly matched TiT strength since all the Martins will be in the fold.

Slum [ m*s Farmers To Buy (Quality Seed The cheapest seed to buy is the best j that can he found, advises Di\ Luther | Shaw, extension plant pathologist at State College. Likewise, he pointed out. the saf est seed to buy; from the standpoint j of freedom from seed-borne diseases, is certified seed Adding everything i together, this means that farmers are j advised to purchase their planting stock from the most reliable sources I available. ! The treating of seed for the con- ! trol of certain plant diseases has been I tound to be one of the most profitable j measures a farmer can use, tlu- State College specialist said. An outstanding exampId of this is tlu- treating of cotton seed with j 2 per cent ethyl mercury chloride j dust. In farm .demonstrations eon- I ducted over a period of four years m North Carolina, the average prof it from this practice was $9.H2 an acre. Yet the cost of treatment av eraged only 15 cents an acre Similar profits from treating seed of various field and horticultural: crops, such as sweet potatoes, cab bages. and small grains, arc being realized yearly by those farmers tak ing advantage -of the treatment. Oth er growers could make extra returns just as easily. Another step in combatting (lis- : eases of field and horticultural crops nearly free as possible of disease producing organisms. i " A defimlr m<>Ve'iTient has been mi derway in North Carolina toward the j production of disease-free seed of agricultural crops for the past sev eral years. Largely aiding in this work has been the North Carolina Crop Improvement Association, which sponsors and supervises the i production of Certtfieit seed.

Skipper Parker sign ing a dozen and a half and Mr. LUley signing another half dozen or so subject to joint decisions to be reach ed after the manager places foot on the local grounds. The old diamond veteran isn't say ing much and bragging less, but the grapevine reports state that hffc* is f^iry digging up material here and evWy u in re. .including a lew from neigh boring territories. Promising to re lease a tittle advance "dope" on his pitchers, the new manager is re maining quiet a few days longer. He "figures lie has something to show for the infield and he isn't worrying a great deal about the pasture for it is quite evident that since he is a lanciier lie is at home m the pas tures. As far as it could be learned to day. Marry Swam, the old war horse of rhe - mound last season, hasn't agreed to sign up for another season.
