On Monday, July 1, at 8 o'clock in the evening the residents of the Laurel districts will meet at the church at White Rock for the pur pose of organizing a community club. This organization is intended for the resdents of the three Laurels, Shel ton, Big and Allenstand. Its primary purpose will be to work for the growth of these sections in every way. At the meeting on Monday, June 3, a committee of 5 was appointed, consisting of T. L. Shelton, James Wallin, Arthur Cantrall, Mrs. Corry WaUin, and Miss Tweed, to arrange for such organization. This com mittee met on Friday evening and formulated a plan for the organiza tion. This plan will be presented to the members of the community at the July 1st meeting for acceptance. Besides suggesting several names for the organization, vice president and secretary-treasurer, the com mittee decided upon five different committees which shall be a part of this organization.

The parties named as chairman of each of these committees shall with the officers of the organization form the program and executive commit tee of the club. There shall be two additional members named on each committee by the executive committee. The purpose of this organization is to 'determine the needs of the com munity and to work to secure these needs and for the upgrowth of the whole community. It is requested that the residents of the three Laurel sections turn out in full for the July meeting. THE GRADEGG STATION Mr. Em met Da via Mnrartnll R will .talr care of the Gradegg Station this sum mer. Thru this arrangement it has been made possible to keep this sta tion open every day for the receiving of eggs. We hope that the farmers of the county will remember this and bring their eggs to the station. Pres ent price is A's, 32c; B's, 29c; C's, 27c. Monday, out of about 5 cases of eggs received there were over 3 cases of A's. There were only 10 dozen and 11 eggs of the C Grade. THE ASSISTANT COUNTY AGENT Mr. R. W. Shoffner, recently grad uated from the North Carolina State College, has been assigned to Madi son County as assistant county agent for a few months. Mi Shoffner will work in cooperation with the present county agent. He is, here primarily to secure experience in the work and will later go to another county as a gent. We hope and believe that all our friends will receive him as thev have the county agent. LIME HELPS Monday, Mr. Shoff ner cut and weighed the clover On a measured square rod of ground in the clover field of W. 0. Rector. Mr. Rector, in the fall of 1927 limed this field. One acre he covered , with 3,000 pounds of lime stone. Another received 2,000 pounds. A third re ceived 1,000 pounds. A check plot at the foot of the slope, the most fer tile portion of the field, was not lim ed. All farmers Thomas were on the Branch Sunday. !

This is an increase of 1143 pounds over the amount sold cluring May, 1928. This butterfat brought to the farmers of Madison Co. $1;144,83. This sounds good. On Friday, June 7, Mr. Fisher gathered the cream on the route a long Middle Fork. This was his first trip and 4 ten gallon cans of cream were secured. This route will grow in the amount of cream secured. The 3,000 lb. plot yielded clover at the rate of 3840 pounds to the acre. The 2,000 lb . plot at the rate of 2240 pounds; the 1,000 lb. plot at the rate of 960 pounds ; while the plot receiving no lime yielded 2240 pounds. Mr. Rector states that he has not been able to secure a stand of clover on the hill land of this field previous to liming the land. It will be noted that the lime made the mid dle section of the hillside equal to the bottom and brought a greater yield on the upper section.
