FLAMING WELLS BRING SPRING While everywhere else in Europe it is wnnter, Spring has arrived in the vicinity of the blazing yas wells of Transylvania. The steady heat radiated from the burning gas has not only kept the surrounding fields and slopes free from snow, but has caused violets, daisies and many other wild flowers to come up and bloom as never before. In the scented blos som-laden branches of nearby aca cias hasty nests are being built by birds who seem surprised and puz zled. Surrounding the area of Spring are hills covered with snow, which glietens in the light of the flames. The wells caught fire seven months ago and have been burning ever since. The flames rise tower-high, and for months pilgrims havetraveled many miles to gaze at their beauty. The new feature is causing a swelling of the crowds of visitors.

New AAA Rulings Aid Cotton Farmers The bureau of internal revenue has given ginners permission to gin and store cotton without bale tags in or der to accommodate growers whose < tax exemption certificates have been delayed. Later, when the certificates arrive, they can be presented to the gin ners, who will then attach the bale tags, said Charles A. Sheffield, of State College, who has charge of the cotton program in North Carolina. Sheffield warned, however, that un der no condition may the cotton be moved, opened, or sold before the bale tags have been attached as re quired by the Bankhead act. The tags show whether the cotton is within the tax exempt allotment of the grower or whether it is in ex cess of the allotment and, there- • fore, subject to the Bankhead tax of 50 per cent of its market value. Tags cannot be attached until ex emption certificates have been pre sented to show the cotton is within the grower’s allotment or else the tax has been paid. Since some growers will produce more than their allotments, while others produce less, arrangements have been made for the low pro ducers to sell their surplus certifi cates to growers who have excess cotton. By selling the certificates for less than the amount of the tax, the un der producers will be able to realize a reasonable sum on the cotton they failed to grow and the over pro ducer will be able to save part of the money they would otherwise have to pay in tax on their excess cotton. Practically all applications for al lotments under the Bankhed act have been filed and the state allotment board is now working three shifts of men and women a day to speed the task of checking applications and con tracts and apportioning the amount of cotton each grower may sell tax free. j BAYVIEW BARBER SHOP I !
