APPEAL to polk county HOUSEWIVES. Appeal to all housewives of Polk a >u n ty to send their dis carded winter clothes to the fs>ir East Relief was made his week by E. W. Dedmond 0f Columbus, county clothing E hair man for this great hu lanitarian organization. y{ r. Dedmond points out that we are discarding our ?winter clothing we can save hu Irian li^es by sending it to the Near East Relief instead of putting it away in the attic or Inset to provide a breeding ground for moths. Most coun Ities of North Carolina have iust finished their financial ' campaign and the state is re ported nearly over the top in this respect. Dr. E. C. Brooks, state sup erintendent of education, is clothing chairman for the pre sent drive and has* has the act ive assistance of Josephus Dan iels, honorary state chairman and Col. George H. Bellamy state chairman. Gov. Morri son has issued a proclamation declaring May 1st Bundle Day and asking all True Tarheels to send a bundle of warm clothing to the Near East Relief. Many school teachers of this county, at the request of Dr.?| Brooks, have organized their classes into a corps' for collect ing discarded clothing in- their respective communities. Cloth ing can be turned over to Dr. Dedmond or sent to the Near East Relief clothing warehouse at Raleigh. Polk county's goal is 300 pounds of clothing in which there is still some wear. . Palm beach suits, straw hats and summer clothing cannot be used as the climate in Armenia, closely approximates our New England states. Many.1 children and adults were found last*win ter who had dragged them selves for miles suffering from acute rheumatism \ simply for lack of clothing. <h STRAND THEATRE Friday Owen Moore in "A Desperate Hero".

His first year out of College, a young farmer of Nash County made $21.80 clear last year on a ?ented farm. Another in Sampson County made enough money to purchase and pay for a 100-hive apaiiry worth "$1,000 and stiill another in Pender County made $1750 net from his farm. These men are above the $300-income men be-y ause of college training and they will get better as they Kain experience. Nearly one-third of the farm problems being studied by the scientists of the United States relate to field crops, soils and fertilizers. The study of plant nutrition is one of the oldest iorms of investigation says Dr. W. Kilgore. 'Are you T roubled With Ants? ??
