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.

tail it was a threat; now now it
is a promise. ? Dyergrams.
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.
