Through... STATE CAPITAL KEYHOLES By BESS HINTON SILVER Y GETTING WARM Congressman Frank Hancock, of the Fifth District, paid a brief visit to Raleigh and looked over the Legislative situation. He would not answer questions per taining to his chances of opposing Senator J. W. Bailey next spring but the general impression in some quar ters here is that he will not run. Hanoock said he is being swamped from North Carolina urg ing’nim to oppose the Rayburn bill /v to give the federal government un precedented control over .the power producing industry. “I have never had such a fire built under me” (Hancock said and added that in his opinion the Rayburn hill will be! modified before it passesj Congress. , i LEAKED OUT—Friends of Thad; Eure, principal clerk of the Houst, who have been urging him to run foi Secretary of State against Stacy W, Wade were trying to keep their little matter a secret but it just can’t be; done. Making a speech on the floor, of the House, Representative Spruill of Bertie, let the cat out of the bag. He referred to Eure as “the man who will make the best .Secretary u)f .State we ever had if he runs.” Every body, including Mr. Wade, knew what /that meant.

The school book rental bill has been slow com ing out of Committee but the admin-; ’ istraxion is solidly behind it and plans to see it a law before the gavels fall in finality .on this session. V GETS START—Senate passage of a bill to permit the Highway Depart- i ment to spend $500,000 annually in maintenance of City streets is view ed by old-time guardians of your gas - oline taxes as the beginning of diver sion. Another bill now in the Legis lature, unless it passes before you read this, would name a commission to study the money of premature payment to the counties of loans ■ o HEY, BIG BOY, I Can k Tell You Sumpin’ ’bout YOUR CROPS ' • “You know I need vitamins * in my food.

BELEE3SSE IT Members of v the Legislature are now satisfied that Representatives Cherry, of Gaston, Chairman of the House Finance Com mittee, -Morphew, of 'Chair man of House Judiciary Number One, ."are out-and-out candidates for Spwiarer next session. Legislators also (believe that Robert Grady John son, present Speaker, *will run for lieutenant Governor. STILL GOING —George Ross Pou, son of the late Congressman Edward W. Pou, who held Third District seat fformore than 30 years, took it on the chin last spring when Harold D. r Cooley beat him to the contest to TUicceed the veteran 'Congressman. 'George Pou has been practicing law in Raleigh since then .-and this week formed a partnership 'with Colonel Ed Abel and Norman Shepard, of “Smithfield. They wBl maintain of fices in Raleigh and Smithfield. Colonel Abel is the Dean of the Johnson County Bar and comes near being the oldest practicing attorney in the State. His activity belies his age. Shepard is an up-and-coming lawyer in his thirties, -who has a re cord in the Capitol City. The combi nation gives Raleigh and Smithfield a new law firm of big-^hots. SOP Legislators voting for the three per cent general sales tax with out basic food exemptions are hoping to pass some law providing a State system of public school book rentals in order to take some relief in a fi nancial way to the folks back home. Some of them honestly believe the voters would rather have cheaper school books than to be relieved of the sales tax. And if you figure the 'thing out in dollars anti cents the i books proposition comes near being as much expense under the present system as the sales tax—-providing ’have two children or more in school. GLEEFUL Republicans around the General Assembly are privately laughing up their sleeves these days. They think Dame Fortune smiling their way in getting the Legisla ture to re-enact the general sales tax and privately they express the hope that the Hill liquor bill will pass, although they will vote against it to a man. The G. O. P. boys be lieve these things will be good cam paign thunder in the legislative elec tions m dose counties next year. But the Democrats believe that good Chilean Natural Nitrate sup plies these vital impurities, in Nature’s own proportions. That’s why this nitrogen fer tilizer produces such healthy, money-making crops. For your own protection say “Chilean” when you order ni trate.

(granulated) and Old Style. Both genuine . Both natural. Both Chilean. And both give your crops the vital impurities. schools with higher pay for teachers will taste better to the ijlks back home than would repeal of the sales tax with another cut in school appro priations. TROUBLE—Stacey W. Wade, Sec retary of State, may or may not know it but there is a movement on foot to get a strong candidate to op pose him in the Democratic primary next year. If the right opponent is found he would have the support of the many friends of former Secretary of State, James A. Hartness, and that’s nothing to be sneezed at as neucles even if Mr. Wade did defeat Mr. Hartness. Os course, Wade may be unopposed for the nomination but if so, it certainly will not be the fault of certain .powers in the Capitol City. BAND ’WAGON Supporters of Congressman R. L.-Doughton are at tempting to get the band-wagon started in behalf of his campaign for Governor .next year. They take out their pencils and set up figures to prove that nobody on earth can defeat the Congressman if he should choose to run. Despite the fact that he op posed the sales tax in Congress the Doughton hoys are marking big business do'frn in his column. Neutral political observers don’t figure that way. Ailso they can’t figure Mr. Donghtcm carrying the first congres sional district against the opposition of either (Clyde R. Hoey or Lieuten ant Governor A. H. Graham. Some people say it is plain that the Dough ton hoys are trying to work up a : good victory cheer even before he announces. FIGHTER —Close friends of Gover nor Ehringhaus express the opinion that he does not personally want to oppose Senator Bailey for the eastern Senate toga next year but they avow ' the Governor is a natural bom fight ■ er and wifi not permit the Bailey forces to back him off the map. Around Raleigh you can hear that if the Baileyites continue to attempt to discount the Governor they may have a real fight on their hands by this time next Spring. Evidently this talk of the Senator beating the Governor is getting the Chief Executive’s dan der up. LOBBYIST Last session it was generally agreed that Willard L. Dowell, Secretary of the North Caro lina Merchants Association, was a mong the top-flight lobbyists around the Legislature. But this session he has not shown such power. The day of the vote on the three percent sales tax in the House of Representatives, Mr. Dowell was claiming 68 votes against the measure. That would have been a clear and safe majority of the 120 House members but when the roll was called the Dowell forces showed a weakness that failed to muster 50 votes on any of the anti sales tax questions. 4c " Timely Questions On Farm Answered i *- — * Question:—What minerals are ne cessary for the laying flock? Answer:—The usual mineral feeds are bone meal,' oyster shell, oi ground limestone, salt and grit. Some minerals are found in small grains such as wheat, corn and oats but the amount in these grains is in adequate and must be supplemented from other sources. Bone meal sup plies calcium and phosphorus and helps build tissue and bone. The oyster shell is fed for its high cal cium content. Salt stimulates the appetite, renders the mash more pa latable and increases the vital pro cesses while grit is an aid in grind ing the food. All are absolutely necessary for egg production. Question: —How soon can grain and hay be fed the young calf? Answer:—Small amounts of both grain and hay should be offered the calf when about two weeks of age. No more grain, however, should be fed at any time than the calf will clean up. The feeding of hay should be sparing at first and gradually in creased as the calf becomes accus tomed to the feed. Use a clean, bright mixed hay for the first three or four weeks. After that a good leafy alfalfa hay is best but any good legume hay may be used. The kind and mixtures of grain for the growing calf are given in Extension Circular No. 177 and copies may be had free upon application to the Agricultural Editor at State College. Question: —Is sweet sorghum cane suitable for silage? Answer:—While com is more wide, ly used than any other crop the sweet sorghum canes are being used exten sively. The cane is only about 75 percent as efficient for milk produc tion as com hut the extra tonnage of silage from the cane more than off sets the tower feeding value. Com, however, has the advantage in being easy to harvest. The sorghums grow tall and produce large yields, but they blow down and tangle easily making them hard to harvest. i SIGN PINE | V Miss Eddie Mae Blanchard has re turned home after spending some time in Suffolk, Va., as the guest of relatives.
