Whereas God, our Heavenly Father, In His Infinite wisdtm has removed from our church and community, our friend and co-worker, Mrs. Mattle C. Tlmberlake. Mrs. Tlmberlake pass ed away Tuesday, April 15, 1919, at her home in Youngsville after a short ill ness. Whereas her loyal ana faithful ser ?Ice as a member of tne Missionary Society and Sunday School of the Toimgsville Baptist Church, makes it imminently fitting that we record our loss and appreciation. Therefore be it resolve^ ? (1) That while we miss from our meetings the bright cheerful face and wipe council of oiu* beloved friend, we bow in humble submission to God's will. (2) That the removal of an active member from our midst, leaves a sad vacancy that will be felt by every member of the Missionary Society and her class In Sunday School. (3) That we extend to every mem ber of her family our sympathy, pray ing that God's Spirit may comfort them and that they may follow in the footsteps of the Savior even as she. (4) That a copy of the resolutions be sent to the family, a copy to the Biblical Recorder ai?U Franklin Times, and copies be placed upon the records of our Society and Sunday School. Mrs. J. B.

Chief of the Dlvison of Markets of North Carolina Extension Service, Is at present making a trip to Beaufort. Wilmington, Chadbourn. Warsaw, Calypso, and other, points, for the purpose of appointing exper ienced young men to inspect the grad ing of potatoes at all of the leading loading points in Eastern North Car olina. He has secured some excellent workers, some of them recently dis charged from the army, who are ex perienced in growing potatoes, and who have the necessary ability and character to hold potato shippers to the grades recently established by the North Carolina legislature. These Inspectors are required to pay a license fee of $2, and after ap pointment have the authority to issue certificates of grade to go with each car of potatoes inspected, for which serivce tfcey willcolletft a fee of $2 a car from the shippers. Notification ot this inspection has been sent to all jobbers and receivers :n the leading consuming market nplnts, so that North Carolina 1b ndw being well ad vertised for shipping the leading gra de? of Irish potutoes. Those growers who,wish to hav? their cars Inspected are filing appli cations for inspection with these lo cal men. Inspection officers are now located at Elizabeth City, Washington, Auro ra and Mount Olive. From these points, supervising Inspectors will-go about to the different loading points, aiding buyers and growers in having ?Pili' their product can make shipment as "field-run" potatoes, but where any .grade at all is made this must be done according u> the standard which has beea established by law. According to Dr. Camp, the more completely this new law is enforced, the greater will be its value to farmers In that they will receive a better price for their product than heretofore. For the Elizabeth City section, those loading points in Currituck,' Camden, Pasquotank, Perquimans and Chowan* counties will be included. In the Au rora section, Pamlico, Craven. Cartar et and Beaufort County south of the Pamlico River, will be included. Tyr rell, Washington, Pitt, Lenoir aud Beaufort north of the Pamlico River will be included Id the Washington section.
