Veach) The farmers of Halifax and ad joining counties of North Carolina do not consider the woodlands on a busi ness basis as they should. The right handling of wcodlots on the farm will make it more prosperous, and increase its value as an investment. Every known industry is directly or indirectly dependent upon the for ests of the country as a means of ex istence. There is nothing that of fers as much protection as a wood lot ag. inst storms and rains that wash avay the top soil from the fer tile fields. The wooldand in this section is for more valuable tnan most landowners realize '"he time is coming right her.* in Halifax '’minty that a large per cent of the land Jvviers will have to get i heir small wood products, such as fence pole? fire wood and 'u r ber sh aped from some ot ier state. We should be more careful when o\t ting wool for home use no: to slash, tear dowii ami waste the wood. Go through your »oodlots and thin out the rough, crowded trees that v.ili never be of any value for anything except firewood. This will give the more i riiform trees a chance to grow. Thei ar * plenty of gullies, hills, hollow-' and poor land that are not fit for cultivation hi this county, so why not start them to growing in woods? This will make you money while you sleep. Lan. that cannot be built up any other vay may be done by growing trees • n it. Trees improve and build up »h< soil. The leaves, small twigs, and other tree litter decompose and form layt r of dark colored vegetable mold hicii enriches the soil and stores up soil moisture. This litter from he trees and the roots of the trees prevents the land from washing away. There seems to be a tendency in Halifax County of not utilizing the woodlots on the farms as they should be used, Cutting low stumps, using limbs from large trees and working up the tree tops for wood should all be practiced in order to get the most bene it ilium the trees grown • the farm On tae poorer lands of Halifax C-uis.-w'pifce, oak, hickoiy, poplar, and walilui are the best paying crops. Short-lived woods like soft maple, beech biich, sw< et gum, sap pine and r d oik may be treated with cold tar c eos(te to « ause them to last much longer for f< nee posts and poles. This reating is v.iry simple and may be d< tie at a very low cost. Posts that ist rom two to four years un treated w 11 last from ten to twenty years after they are treated in an open tank with cold-tar creosote. In Halifax County there is a ten dency when pastures are made for cat tle, bosses and hogs, to make it to include some growing timber. This should not be done, because pasture land ard wood land are more profit able vken managed separately, each for the growing of its own unfinished product. Some people think that good pas ture will be wasted by keeping stock out of the woods. That is hardly true, since a fully stocked woodlot has little or no grass in it, for the reason that there is insufficient light. When grass is grown under the shade of trees it is much less nutritious Matthews Fish Co. C. G. MATTHEWS, Prop. DIAL R-393—Rosemary, N. C. Located Two Doors South of Citizens Bank & Trust Co.

Primary News Due to the heavy snow on Wednes day school closed for Xmas very un expectedly. So the beginners left their little stockings hanging. They were quite delighted to find on their return Monday that Santa Claus had visited the school and filled each little stock ing full of toys, candy, raisins and nuts.

The beginners are glad to welcome two new children who have entered their room. The beginners wish The Herald of fice and the Aurelian Springs School a Bright and Happy New Year. One day Miss Carty told us she had a surprise for us, but before we could have it we must bring a spoon and bowl. The next day most of us j brought our spoons and bowls. At ten o'clock Miss Carty brought a big pan of something hot in the room. Of course we all wanted to know what it was. She gave each one some in his bowl, then put sugar and milk on it. After that we started eating it and didn’t stop until we finished it be cause it was so good. But we haven’t told you what it was—It was the best hot oatmeal we have ever eaten. We have had oatmeal every day since, and we hope to keep o nhaving it. This nice surprise wouldn’t have happened if it hadn’t been for Mrs. W. H. Thorne and Mrs. Jack Clark and sev eral of the school friends. Third Grade News The third grade girls and boys have organized a Wide Awake Health Club. Willie B.

Sometimes we play like we are Doctors Disagree When children are irritable and pef'ish. grind th'ir teeth and sleep restlessly have digestive pains and dis turbances. lack of appetite, and have .telling eyes, nose and lingers, doctors will not always agree that they are suf fering from worms. Many mothers, too, will not believe that their carefully brought up children can have worms. The tact remains that these symptoms will yield, in a great majority of cases, 4a a few doses ot White’s Cream Ver mifuge, the sure expcllant of round and pin worms. Jf. your child has any ot these symptoms, try this harm less, old fashioned remedy, which «ou can get at 35c per bottle from TAYLOR’S DRUG STORE Rosemtry, N. C. soldiers and march, sometimes we play like we are animals. We al ways try to get in the health parade because we have so much fun parad ing around the room. When we are not neat and clean we have to stay in our seats and watch the others parade. Santa Claus was very good to all of us. He brought all of us lots of good things to eat and most of us some toys and clothes. We wonder how old Santa knows our needs so well. We are glad to start back to school again nad have made resolutions to work harder and be better boys and girls than ever before. Service of Summons By Publication NORTH CAROLINA, HALIFAX COUNTY.
