THE GLEANER IB8DED ITKBY TH0E8DAT. J. D. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.0? A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Bnt?r.d at tbe Postoffloe at Orabaa. N. O.. af mooud-olmi matter. GRAHAM, N. 01, AUG. 11^1927. Mr. Coolidge's "do not choose to ran" announcement has been partially clarified by a further statement that he meant what he said. But there are plenty who yet believe lie would find a way Of accepting the nomination in 1928, if It were tendered him. The cotton crop for 1927 will be about 12,495,000 bales, according to an estimate of August 1st, re leased Monday by the census bu reau at Washington. This js some four and a half million bales un der the 1926 crop. And the price has taken on a big booetand sent the price beyond 20 cents, the highest in years. A strohg movement is in pro gress in Greensboro to hold a re call election to oust the council men who so generously granted a city employee a four months leave of absence with pay at $400 per month for the four months leave. If the recallers are suc cessful, they will teach trnsted officials that they must not waste or give away the hard-earned tax money entrnsted to their keep ing. Sacco and Vanzetti, who mur dered and robbed a paymaster aronnd eight years ago, after go ing through every process known to the courts for escaping the death penalty, were to be execut ed after 12 o'clock last night. A few minutes before the hour they were granted a reprieve for 12 days. Protests against their exe cution have been made by anarch ists and reds throughout the world, and much property has been destroyed by bombing. Is the world to be ruled by those who would murder and destroy? The Mississippi flood of 1927 has passed into history, but there is an old saying that runs thus? "history repeats itself.'1 There is no human assurance that it will not repeat itself next year. There are those who control legis lation in a large measure now planning a drastic reduction in taxee paid the federal govern ment, that the surplus may not again mount past the $500,000,000 mark. They say its purpose is to lighten the tax burden. That taxee are burdensome to a large percent age of the individual tax payers is true, but to those who pay the bulk of the Federal taxee on in comes and excess profits, they are not burdensome to the extent of compelling them to deny them selves either luxuries or comforts, or any of the good things that money can procure to satisfy human desires. Then why not use the governments part of such money to help fix the Mississippi . and its tributaries so as to fore stall a repetition of the terrible and costly devastation of a few weeks ago. College Education It ia the opinion of Dr. Frank L. McVey, president of the Uni versity of Kentucky, that the popularity of American college education, which is now drawing 850,000 young men and women yearly to institutions of higher learning, is likely to go on in creasing for 25 years. He also declared that educators should make better known just what is the purpose of a college education so that boys and girls who do not really want it will not crowd the classrooms, and also have the high schools throughout the country reorganise their systems so that the admission of the student into college would be more dependent upon the individual than upon the accredited standing of the high school. ? Barnyard Millet Is Fine Hay Crop The common barnyard or Ja panese millet advertised by seeds men under the glowing' name of "Billion Dollar Grass" is one of the best hay crops for the eastern Carolina farmes according to ev idence 8nbmitted by farmers of Edgecombe county. "I planted six acres of good land to the crop this spring," says Walter Bullock of EJgecombe, and it yielded me at the rate of a little over eight tons of air-dried hay per acre. We were able to start cutting the hay within 42 days from the time of planting the seed and it makes the very best of hay. The millet will grow successfully only on good land, but I am Bure that if each farmer in North Carolina would grow only one-half acre to each mule on his place, there would be no hay bought in our section from now on." Mr. Bullock states that he has been able to reduce his grain ration to his wojkstock since he began feeding the millet hay. The millet is cut and there is no second growth as in the case of Sudan grass. The seed should be planted only on, fertile land. Soil that will prbduce a balo of cotton to the acre will grow fine crops of millet hay. County Agent Zeno Moore who saw the crop on Mr. Bullock's farm states that it would yield at least 1250 pounds of seed to the acre. These seed of course attract birds as Mr. Bullock said they were as thick as gnats on his place while the crop was'ma turing. For the man not willing to plant "his good land to the crop, "Mr. Moore suggests that next year he plant the tobacco seed beds when the plants have been set. The yield of hay from the seed beds alone would cot down the need for purchased hay by a con siderable margin. Farm Women Attend College Short Course. School girls again, trudging with their note books from class room to class room or singing songs of bygone days on the cam pus at veeper services, 194 farm women from 33 counties of North Carolina left the cares o( home behind and attended the third annual short course at State Col lege last week.. Their days were full. Classes started promptly at eight o'clock each morning and continued until the general conference period at noon. Following the luncheon hour, the women took part in practical demonstrations, in sight seeing trips, and in swimming in the college pool. Vesper services were held on the campus each evening following the supper hour. Short inspirational talks from Dean Schaub, Mrs. Jane S. McKimmon, Prof. T. E. Browne and others featured these gather ings. Then there were motion pictures and songs by way of en tertainment. The women took intensive training in foods, clothing, house furnishings, gardening and poul try. Each woman was allowed to take only two subjects but county delegations split up their work so that some person from a county was enrolled in each of the courses. It is their plan to take this work back to the home clubs. It was disclosed during the general conference hours, that many of the delegates had their expenses paid by their home clubs. Some came as individuals interested in the work but the larger number were accredited delegates. Guilford county led in numbers attending with 21 delegates; Halifax was neit with 20 and Stanly third with \1 dele gates. Several of the counties from quite a distance were repre sented with one delegate each. 1* ot DffjmfQ tmufmuifig s?Nvoa /jtxpifjmjmai iqr-amBmxpvniliiiuil BwpwftnIimiflTfyiiUpyfpii'lH l?W <*-+pW **? ?*| *DOfPQI\) IllffttttTIH 999dm a) uarau aA?q jwX J| mopfcjDot JO stand tvnam jo ftqvnq 4qjiam|* IB^|Q ?| ywi 7it *IaB*w a<pfiMi^ii^lp* ?

When times are dull competi tion is keener. Business concerns that use com prehensive, honest advertising stay ahead of their competitors in both good and dull times. Newspaper- advertising creates an increasing desire for advertised goods. In some sections business is in creased to a certain extent by in creased population; in others by increased wealth, but under any circumstances business will grow faster by using newspaper space. Newspaper advertising Will in crease the demand for anything anywhere. The longer business concerns wait for business to come without asking, the louger they will wait for business to come their way. Business is here and to be had. The ones who get it will be the ones who go after it hard! (Copyright 1927) Wealth and Illiteracy. Julian Harris in his recent ad dress to the North Carolina Press Association made a plea for the editors to fight illiteracy, preju dice ancK ignorance in the South. Quoting Walter Hines Page that a "South, illiterate, unhealthy, poverty-stricken was a national peril," the editor declared that "to that statement 1 would add that it is equally true that a South illiterate and intolerant, but wealthy, is a national menace." "If you are tempted to reply that as soon as the South is wealthy, illiteracy and ignorance, which breed intolerance, will be wiped out, my reply is that the South, even now, is rolling in wealth." Reciting a list of figures show ing the, great increase in recent years of wealth in iu the South. Mr. Harris said the South is no longer poverty-stricken and un healthy, "yet, illiteracy thrives, and prejudice and intolerance, often masked and hooded, usurps the law and administers justice with the lash." To get the best results from dairy or beef cattle,1 one must not only feed an economical and bal anced ration, bnt must also have the watchful eye of a true stock man. There is much truth in the old saying that "the eye of the master fattens the cattle" say ex tension workers. Reitzel Reunion. The ninth annual Reitzel reunion will be held at Richland Chnrch, about jfour miles east of Liberty, on Thursday, August 18, 1927. All persons related to the Reitzel famjly, either by blood or marriage, as well as all friends of the family, are cordially invited to be present. At 10:00 a. m. the gathering will be called to order by the president, and a short program of business and short talks will follow', after which dinner will be served picnic style. Some good speakers have promised to be present. A large attendance and a great occasion is expected.
