I Barley a Save Crop to Grow in Ala- I mance County. Barley is called by many the win- I }ergrowing corn crop. I It yields as well or better than B ojta. It is more hardy and not as I subject to winter killing as oats or I wheat. It is sown in September ■ and ripens early in May. The I beardless variety is adapted better I to our needs. - Fred Young and John Trollinger I oillebane, N. C., both grew suc- I cessful crops this year. J. S. I Graves, Burlington, N. C. ; of the I Friendship community, grew a very I successful crop. Several others I made line yields in this County. It is well adapted to grow in a I winter hay mixture. The following ■' j 3 recommended: 1 Bu. Barley, 1 1-2 Bu. Fulghum Oats, 1 Peck of Wheat, 15 pounds of Hairy Vetch, This is to be sown on one acre. W. Kekr Scott, Co. Agent. I Simpson Reunion At Bethlehem Church, Aug. 26th. ■ J.'he reunion of the Simpson fami- I Jy, their kindred, and their friends I will be held at Bethlehem Church, I four miles north of Elon College, on I Thursday, August 20th. An inter- I esting historical address will be de- I livered by Dr. \V. T. Whitsett of Whitsett, who bas spent much time | for the past years in Collecting the B early history of this Piedmont reg- I ion. The Simpson family is one of ■ our oldest families, and the spelling If of the name has been as follows: ■ Simpson, Cempsen, Simeson, Simi -1 son, Simson, Sympson. There will be a picnic dinner on I the grounds, special music, and I other features to make it a day of pleasure for all who attend. On [ account of its wide connection it is I expected that the Sim/pson reunion will he one of the largest held in this section this year. A cordiar invitation has been extended to all who are interested to be present. \ There are good roads in every di rection from Bethlehem Church. Corn Yield Reduced By Pulling Fodder Fodder pulling days are here, the saddest of the year for the corn crop. Some experiment sta tions have found that the loss from pulling fodder amounts to from 7to 9 bushels of corn per acre or from 15 to 20 percent of the acre yield. "The facts about pulling fod der are these,".says Prof. C. B. Williams, head of the department of agronomy at State College. "An acre' of corn that will pro duce about 20 bushels of shelled grain will yield about 240 pounds of cured fodder. Onemanon the av erage can strip 400 pounds of fod der per day. Two and one-half "ties are required to yield a stack of fodder and one stack of aver age size will contain about 300 bundles. A bundle usually weighs about iwo pounds. One f au of in tie, carry to stack and' build a stack iu about half of a day. In addition time lost "i this labor, he has reduced the yr.uu yield of his corn and bad touch better been harvesting a hay crop grown for furnishing the needed roughage." Mr. Williams states that some experiment stations report no loss of grain when the tops are cut, but when tops are cut and the eaves stripped from the remain -4! le 8 -&lk, there is a lass of grain# The average of the tests conducted in mauysouthern states snow that a loss of at least two ushels of grain per acre is had ) en leaves alone are stripped "om the plant. Aside from the decrease in yield of grain, pulling fodder is a os tlj method of securing rough age for livestock. The food tal of cor « fodder is not as high as 'at of good legume hay and more undant yields of the hay may ® secured when proper steps are w * er > to provide it. Peach growers of Vance county t av ® s °ld their crop on the local Jftrket at Henderson for an av r4?e of about $2 per bushel. One fower 600 trees about four : a ' 8 is harvesting from two «ve bushels of quality fruit Pe* tree. The 16th Annual Convention Of The N. C. Forestry Association.. Th® 16 th Annual Convention of the North Carolina Forestry As sociation will be held this year at Morehead City, on Thursday and r riday, September 2nd and 3rd. Two subjects of extreme import ance will be given consideration one, the equitable taxation of forest land; and the other, more adequate protection of our forests from fire.

State Parks and National Parks in North Carolina will be consid ered, and those attending the con vention will have an opportunity to visit Ft. Macon State Park- Kecent forest legislation has been enacted which affects North Car olina, namely the" Weeka and Uarko-McNary laws; forest pro tection; National forests; and the Appalachian Forest Experiment Station, which receives an in creased appropriation of SIBOO. 1 he sneakers at the convention will include prominent national as well a>- North Carolina persons. Special delegates are being ap pointed from th? counties and cities, and the Association ex tends a cordial invitation to all others who are interested in the forestry problems of our State to attend the convention. t ' About Cotton. The Philadelphia Record. Great Britian would prefer to get the bulk of its raw cotton supply from the great valley of the Nile if it were possible to do so, and in this way reduce its large purchases iu the American market. Some of the Southern cotton growers anticipate such competition, but well-informed newspapers, like The) Charlotte Observer, do not agree with this view. It holds tljat "the compe tition is to come, when it does come, from points nearer home— from the irrigated districts of California and other Pacific Coast sections. As a matter of fact, competition of apprecfable nature is already coming from that field, for the growing of cotton in the irrigated sections of the far VVeat on a profitable basis has advanced beyond the experimental stage. The cotton growii in that part of the United States is of long staple and fine texture and has madeja high mark in cotton-buying cen ters. In time California and Ar izona will come into market cal culations to an extout that may have influence in controlof prices." But it will be a long time before Cotton abdicates its kingship in the South. LADIES, who can do plain sewing at home and want profita ble spaie time work.

Torn Tarheel says that old rocky field, full of stamps, just back of the barn is now one of the best pieces of land on the farm since he blew out thd rocks and stumps with explosive. BACK BAD TODAY ? Tlien Find The Cause And Correct It A« Other Craham Folks Have. There's little rest or peace for the backache sufferer. Daya are tired and weary — Night brings no respite. Urinary troubles, headaches, diz ziness and nervousness, all tend to prevent rest or sleep. Why continue to be BO miserable? Why not use a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys? Use Doan's Pills. Your neighbors recommend Doan's. Read this Graham case: Robt. J. Ilolt, N. Main St., says: "I suffered with a heavy, bearing down feeling in my back and I couldn't do any lifting without get ting a sharp, pain in my back. My kidneys acted too frequently and the secretions were scanty. After using Doan's .Pills, the backache left and mv kidneys acted fine. I have had no return of the trouble and believe Doan's have cured me." 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Mft buru Co., Mfrs., Buffalo. N. Y. Cheap Explosive Available For Carolina Farmers The Government of the United States through the federal depart ment of agriculture has again set aside a quantity of pyrotol, the cheap explosive manufactured from wartime materials, for the use of North Carolina farmers. "Last year this state was »llot ted 900,000 pounds of pyrotol'', says A. T. Holman, agricultural engineer fox the extension divi sion of State Col'ege. "This year our allotment has been increased to 1,400,000 pounds and the ma terial is now available for those farmers who wish to clear their land of stumps or to drain wet spots or otherwise use the mate rial on the farm. The pyrotol it* now available for merchants or dealers and farmers may cecure it only by ordering through their county farm agents or through the extension division of t;ie Col lege." Mr. Holman states that the farmers of Pender County are the first to take advantage of the new allotment. They placed an order for 16,000 pounds through county agent W. H. Robbins and the ma terial will be shipped to Burgaw for distribution. This ahipment was fiuanced by the county Board of Commissioners so that laud owners could have a supply to blow out stumps and otherwise improve the condition of their fields. "While we were allotted only 900,000 pounds last year, we ac tually got a little over one million pounds," says Mr. Holman. "This material was uaed for re moving rocks aud stumps from fields, for ditching and for squar ing up poorly shaped fields. The use of explosives for land clear ing purposes results iu larger fields, more economical use of labor and power machinery, greater acre yields and increased returns per farm worker." Tom Tarheel says it pays him to look after his corn crop as well as he does his cotton crop. Trustee's Safe of Real Property.
