THE GLEANER GRAHAM, N. 0., OCT. 8, 1936 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY J. D. KERNODLE, Editor $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. taunt at UM foMoBot KOnM*. N.O..U MO" au-JUM matter ' s Al's Changing Mood "Politics make strange bed follows" is an old phrase, not so often quoted as it used to be, which does not mean that it has lost any of its virtuous truth fulness. Just as true and ap plicable in these changing days as ever. Only a few days ago, about the same time in distant cities, the one time political pals, Al fred ?. Smith and Franklin D Roosevelt, were speaking, not in agreement. Mr. Smith must have felt deep disappointment that Mr. Rosevelt did not in the remotest way refer to him while he stood before a big au dience and bitterly criticised the official conduct of bis erst while pal and declared his sup port of his old time friend's po litical foe, Gov. Alfred Landon. Not so many months ago Mr. Smith let it be known that he would oppose the reelection of Mr. Roosevelt. Notwithstand ing his determination, Roose velt stock took a rise, which may have caused Mr. Smith to make a more decided change in his attitude and come out in the open for Mr. Roosevelt's oppo nent. Surely the open support of Mr. Landon by Mr. Smith can not be a shrewd move to defeat London. If it's a sincere change of heart, in all fairness the privilege must be accorded Mr. Smith, however untimely and strange it may appear. Eight years ago Mr. Smith was the favorite of millions for Chief Executive, notwithstand ing his religious creed and his position on alcoholic beverages. He was the Democratic oppo nent of Mr. Hoover, who had some difficulty in making up his mind about his political affiliation. Mr. Smith, though he loet, wanted a second deal. He had been Governor of New York State, whch appears to be a stepping stone to the nomina tion for President. He had helped to make Mr. Roosevelt Governor. Again the Demo crats looked to New York for a candidate and in looking they overlooked Mr. Smith and be gan to consider Mr. Roosevelt. It went with a bang, to the ut ter dismay of Mr. Smith. It rancored Mr. Smith and be does not seem to have recov ered. And now he is making an unenviable spectacle of him self, started immediately upon the nomination of Roosevelt, and is going the limit. Those that supported his candidacy will not follow his lead in his bold venture, and what help he will be to Mr. Landon is entire ly proplemalical. May be Re publicans prefer he had not en tered their camp. Dae to infections of the Grau viile wilt and other tobacco dis eases in Stokes connty, tobacco growers are planning new crop rotation systems to control the troubles. CONFESSIONS OF WOMAN SPY Another article by a woman apy just released from a French prisoD, in which she tells of the "armament racket." One of many feature* in the October 18 (?sue of the American Weekly, the big magaxine which oomee regularly with the BALTIMORE AMERICAN. n ? -? ?? A HOUSE-TO-HOUSE CANVASS That is the Plan of Democratic Chairman J. Wallace Winborne Raleigh, Oct. 7th. ? State Demo cratic Cbairmau J. Wallace Win borne this week called upou bia county and precinct organisations make a house-to-house canvass every voter in Nortb Carolina. He plans the most systematic and camplete organization ever un dertaken in the State. The first step of Chairman Winbome's plan is for the pre cinct committeemen and women to ascertain the political prefer ence of every eligible voter in their precinct. The lists com pleted they are to be checked against the registration books ? which open Saturday, Oct. 10th ? in order that the workers may learn the names of those Demo crats not registered and got their names on the registration books as soon as possible. Finally, the lists will be used by the poll workers and "haulers" on elec tion day in an effort to see that every Democrat gets to the polls and caste his or her vote. "I have been asked why we are making such a thorough cam paign when there is no danger of losing either State or National ticket," said the Chairman. "The answer is simple. Ad overwhelm ing Democratic majority this fall would be of the greatest valae to the party and to the State in its relationship to the federal gov ernment. To pile ap a heavy Democratic majority both for President Roosevelt and for a Democratic administration which would give him 100 percent co operation could not only help North Carolina in the eyes of the national administration, which will be Democratic again. "And there are other reasons why North Carolina Democrats should not just coast along this fall. A county's representation in the State Democratic Conven tion depends upon the size of its vote for Govertfcr. A county in which the Democrats don't take the trouble to go to the poll will not have its proper representa tion in the party for* the next four years." Mrs. J. B. Spilman, State Vice Chairman, has called npon the women members of the precinct committees to offer their services to the men in making the can vass and in checking the registra tion books. These books will open Saturday and remain open through Saturday, October 81st. Each Saturday during that time they will be at the voting places. On other days they are available at the registrars' homes. Treat Small Grain To Free Seed From Smuts Smuts in wheat and barley can beet be controlled by treating the seed with fungicides or hot water to kill the fungus organisms. Planting seed that has never been affected also is gool, said Dr. Luther Shaw, extension plant pathologist at State College, but sometimes it ia hard to get seed perfectly free from disease. A few smutty heads in a Held are capable of iufesting a large percentage of the seed produced on the farm, and threshing machines oan spread the spores from one farm to another. Oat smuts can be oontrolied either by planting a disease- resis tant variety or by treating the seed with a fungicide, Dr. Shaw added. The treatment recommended differs with the type of smut and the kind of seed. Treat loose smut by immersing the seed in hot water. Keep wheat 10 minutes in water that has been heated to 129 degrees Fahreuheit. Barley should be left 13 miuutes in water with a temperature of 126 degrees. A fungicide dust will kill the covered smut spores. Treat wheat with i ounce of ethyl mercury phosphate dust to each bushel of seed, or 2 to ounoes of oopper carbouMW dust (30 per oent bop per). Both covered and black loose smuts in barley may be eradicat ed by dusting each bushel of seed with 1-2 ounce of ethyl mercury phosphate dust or 3 ounaes of formaldehyde dust. This last treatment will also kill covered and loose smut in oats. The simplest and moet effective home-made machine to use in treating seed with fungicidal dust is the barrel mixer. It should not cost more than $5 to make and with proper care it should last indefinitely. A diagram showing how to make snch a duster, together with a de tailed discussion o f smuts and smut control methods may he secured free from Dr. Lather Shaw, State College, Raleigh. Pictures Determine Atmosphere of Room A selection of good pictures harmonizing with the color and furnishings of a room will bring out latent beauty and atmosphere that would otherwise go unnotic ed. Pictures are constant compan ions in the home, aaid Mia* Paul ine Gordon, extension specialist in borne furnishings at State Col lege, and they should be selected with care. "A bare wall is better than ug ly, distasteful, or tiresome pic tures," she declared. In the first place, she cotinued, a picture should be beautiful. It should also harmonize with the room, suit the space it is to occu py, and be appropriate for the persons who will use the room most. For example, the living room should not be cluttered up with pictures intended for the nursery or child's bed-room. Likewise, dark or somber pictures should not be placed in the children's rooms. Omit pictures when color-and figure interest of background are sufficient; use a mirror or textile hangings. Where there is enough color but uot euough pattern, choose etchings or drawings. With sufficient pattern and not enough color, use strong color pictures. Place light pictures on light walls and dark pictuses on dark walls. Don't place a picture in a frame that is more comspicuous than the picture. Oil pictures re quire larger, heavier frames than water colors or priuts. Warm color pictures should be framed with warm colors or gilt Cool colors such as blue, white, or gray should be framed with a cool color or possibly silver. Fine picture wire should be used gather than large ornate cords. Meidum and small pic tures should be hung "blind", that is, to a hook or nail hidden behind the picture. Large rec tangular pictures should be hung with two vertical wires, and large gsund or oval pictures should be hung with a wire going over oue hook or hanger in the form of a triangle. Compliance work has been checked on 2,600 Johnston county farms at a cost of approximately $1.80 a farm. A recent cooperative order for $400 worth of rye, vetch, clover, peas, oats and barley was made by growers of Duplin county. D. A. Kise* of Gaston county says that though he had five acres less pasture and much dry weath er, he has a better pasture than last year due to the use of the tripple superphosphates. Sausage, Favorite of Romans Sausage manufacture really dates from Roman practice. Even during the time of Augustus Caesar a large number of varieties were prepared. There were large sau sages that were served sliced, and there were small sausages that were served whole. There were both fresh and cured sausages, al though the fresh sausages were practically restricted to home manufacture and consumption. Romans were particularly fond of a sausage composed of pork and white pine nuts, chopped fine, sea soned with pepper, bay leaves, herbs and cumin seed. Outer Mongolia The so-called People's Republic of Outer Mongolia came into exist ence in 1921, when Russian red army troops entered this vast, sparsely populated territory in pur suit of the forces of the white leader, General Ungern von Stern berg. Its international status has been highly anomalous. Theoreti cally it is still part of China, but no Chinese official may set foot there. The country in the last few years has been barred against all foreigners except Russians.
