Louisburg College
News Items
College Has A Kami
President Earuliardt of Louis
burg College announces that the
college has bought the Macon ,
place farm, consisting of one hun
dred and eighty acres, seventy'
aci?g of which are cleared. This
farm was bought) for Louisburg
College with money contributed
by Miss Amie Stevens, late ol',
Goldsboro, North Carolina. Miss
Stevens was anxious for Louis
burg College to have a farm
whereon the college could l'urnish 1
Its kitchen and diuing room with
plentiful supplies of fresh milk,
butler, meat of all kinds aud veg- ,
c tables.
The Upchurch family, of liae
ford has given money to estub- 1
lish on this farm a daivy aud to;
supply the farm with all the nec
essary stock. The building* on
the farm are' being moderhlzed.
A new barn has been completed,
and a modern dairy barn is now
being constructed. Already, a
herd of Jersey and Guernsey cat
ile have been bought.- and the
farm is being stocked with Essex
l|ogs.
Louisburg College expects to
make this Tarm, which is on the
Helulerson road, one of the model
farms ol this section of the state.
Work Ik lligiui
I Dr. Walter i'atten, ol .Mount ,
j OHve. North Carolina, jilio was I
I recently appointed by the North
Carolina Conference as Field
Agent- for Louisburg College, has
already begun his work in litjui
dating the indebtedness .of the
college. Dr. Patten's first object
is to acquaint the people of the
North Carolina Conference with
the opportunities of Douisburg
College and to lay before t'liem |
tile needs of the institution. He
has already prepared an ilustrat
ed lecture for Sunday night ser
vices, and the pastors of the Con
ference have been requested to i
get in touch with him.
Secoiul Semester Begins
The second semester at Louis
burg College has just- begun. (
Twelve new students have enroll
ed. It is very gratifying to know j
that this has been, in every res- j
pect, a record year for Louisburg
College, because of the fact that
it has enrolled the largest student ?
body in the history of the institu- j
tlon and because of the fact that j
the students are better prepared I
for college work and seem to
have more determination to sue- 1
ceed.
Quite a number of improve
ments have been made on the ?
college campus during the fall se- I
mester, and other improvements j
will be made before the end of
the college year. . j
Annual Well Under Way
Things haVe really been "buz
zing" around the campus at Louis- \
burg for the past two weeks, as j
work on "The Oak," the college j
annual, has been well under way.
The Siddell representative, of
Raleigh, has been in the college
all t'his week, making photo
graphs.
The success of the annual Is.
to a great extent, going to depend
upon the support and generosity
of the merchants and towns peo
ple of Louisburg. Dr. Earnhardt
and the entire college are backing
up the publication of this book,
and it Is felt that it will be a
good advertisement, both for the
college and for the town.
The Annual Staff, through its
Editor-in-Chief, W. T. Medlln, Jr.,
of Raleigh, wishes to extend Its
most stftcere thanka to all of our
friends for their aid in the past)
and solicit theit- support in the
future. ,

M., Feb. 4, 1938, at the Court j
Housf in Louisbui g, according to :

Franklin County Petroleum In- !
dust'ries C'oinmittee.
Chairman Foster stalled: "The I
misuse or highway tax fuudts ijj
this State will be discussed at the:
meoUiig."
0C the 25c in taxes that the
State receives frow every dollar
taken in tor' gasoline by service
station operators, approximately j
3 per cent is being diverted to
non-highway purposes. This, ac
cording to Chairman Foster, is
tax equivalent to, 3 per cent of
the gross receipts of gasoline sales !
and is greater than the net pro-1
fits after wa ;es, overhead and
other cosUi a e met.
The gasoiine dealers are collec-j
ting 7 l-lc on each gallon of gas-'
oline, which is equivalent to a ,
sales tax of 4 8 per cent of the re
tail price.
S. Gilmer Sparger, of Raleigh.
Secretary of the North Carolina
Petroleum Industries Committee,
will attend and address the meeti
ing.
In 1936, North Carolina divert
ed more than $2,000,000, or 10
per cent of the $20,961,000. in
taxes collected, by the Stare, ac
cording to the U. S. Bureau of

Washington, Jan, 22. ?
Part of the sooth's surplus
sweet potatoes may soon be
used to put the stick in post
age stamps.
The agriculture depart
ment's bureau of chemistry
and soils has found that dex
trin from sweet potatoe
stnrch produced qt Laurel,
Miss., makes a fine adhesive
for stamps, labels and envel
opes.
As n result the dextrin may
serve as a substitute for the
presently used adhesive made
from cassava.
"The sweet potato dextrin ?
has a bland, slightly sweet *
taste and Is slightly better as *

thers for many happy years . . .
and I grew to love them all and
they did me worlds of good. Amid
the roar of modern cities and the
efficiency of modern methods, the
sweet piety of the Abby , . . .
brought me much peace, as I en
tered It week by week to see what'
was happening and being said
within it's walls." In like man
ner the pastor of the Louisburg

COOLEY EXPLAINS FARM BILL
/ ? 1
Represent;! t iye Harold Cooley I
Rives the follow ius ud vane j ex- 1
planatlon of the proposed Farm
Bill, which is expected to become
law in tew days;
"Realizing that tobacco farmers
ar^/now engaged in preparing ,
their plant beds and appreciating
?their desire to obtain as much in- 1
formation as possibly can be ob
tained at> the present time with i
reference to 1 ;? : ! -S tobacco pro-;
gram contemplate by the general i
farm bill which is no* in con- !
Terence, I have discussed the situ- ;
at ion at length with officials of I
the Department of Agriculture in
the hope t>h.i t I might make a
statement which might be of i
some benefit to those who are now
preparing for their 19X8 crop.
"Under the tobacco marketing
quota provisions of the geueral
farm bill which is now iu confer
ence. the Secretary of Agriculture
is required to invoke the market
ing quota provision of the act
whenever an abnormally excessive
supply of tobacco exists; that, is,
when the total supply of tobacco
as of the beginning of the mar
keting year then current exceeds
the reserve supply level therefor.
According Oo statistics, this condi
tion now exists, and iu the event
of the final passage of the tobacco
provisions of the geueral farm
bill, it will become the duty of
the- secretary to make the requir
ed announcement and to impose
marketing quotas. Upon making
the announcement, it then will be- .
come the duty of the secretary j
to conduct a referendum of tobac
co producers; and in the event
more than two-thirds of the pro
ducers voue in favor of the im
position of the quota provisions. I
the quotas then wiJI become ef-j
festive.
"The base actvagc of l lu?>-curcd
tobacco in 1937 was approximate
ly 1,080,000 acres. which does,
not include uew growers in 1937 t
to whom a base acreage allotment '
had not theretofore been made, i
It is estimated that taking into i
account adjustments for old grow- 1
ers and bases for new growers in j
t i* 3 7 and 1938. the total base
would be increased to approxim
ately 1,120,000 acres of flue-cur
ed tobacco.
This compares with the highest
acreage on record of 1.144,000 1
acres in 1930, In addition to this,
there has been a remarkable in
crease in t*he production per acre
since the inauguration of the farm
programs. In view of the preset
situation, it appears that the flue
cured crop in 1938 should -be
around 700,000,000 pounds, which
will of necessity result in a re
duction of acreage to approximate
ly 850,000 or 875,000 acres in
view of the yields how being ob
tained. It is not thought the mar
ket will take a larger crop In
1938 at anything like the prices
in recent years. In making the ad
justments, growers \?ith bases of
four. acres or less would probably
have a reduction of 10 per cent
below tfc$"'lMWe, Growers with a
Base of mojre-thau ftrfe acres pro
bably wouKF have a reduction of
30 per cent ijeitiw t>he base. Grow
ers with bas?9 between four and'
five acres probably would have an
adjustment between 15 and 30
per cent down to 3.6 acres. It ap
pears that the necessity for re
quiring the little grower to ac
cept) a 10 per cent reduction in
acreage is due to the Increase in
yield per acre in recent years, the
idea being that by reducing the
acreage the little grower would
not exceed his poundage allotment
and thereby become liable to the
50 per cent penalty provided.
Not So Severe.
"While it appears thM the re
duction in 1937 must be rather
severe if the price is to be main
tained, to those who took part in
the 1937 agricultural conservation
program it will actually result in
a reduction of only about 7 per

Joint Meeting At
College
The Louisburg Baptist Y. W. A.
met jointly with t'he Methodist
Young Women's organization on
January 24, 1938 in the social
hall of Louisburg C'olVege at which
lime the Methodists' rendered the
program. The welcome was given
l?y Mrs. J. G. Phillips, Counselor
tor their organization.
All routine business was dis
pensed with and the meeting was
turned over to the Program Chair
man, Miss Helen Smithwick. The
program was opened with the
singing of "Give of Your Best? to
the Master," the topic being "Let
15s Listen To. World Wide Mis
sions."
A beautiful scripture lesson
was given by Mrs. Martin after
which Mary Bethay told t'he story
of "Our Gifts to World Wide Mis
sions" in a very realistic way.
Now we pause in the program
to listen to a vocal selection, "My
Task" rendered by Miss Rose Ma
lone, accompanied by Miss Edith
Dickson of Louisburg College.
Everyone then jo+rtvd in sing
ing "We've a "Story to Tell to the
Nations." Then Miss Louise Wea
ver gave us a picture of "Our
Dollars at' Work in the World"
through speech using as an ex
ample the life of Justice Brandeis.
Mrs. Phillips ledt us in prayer
that we might do without some
of our luxuries that those less
fortunate might have some of the
necessities of life.
Miss Mary Finch, of Louisburg
iCollege, gave a piano solo, after
which Miss Evelyn Earnhardt
gave a reading on "Give Your
Best', and The Best Will Come
Back To You."
Mrs. Hugh H. Perry gave a
presentation of "The World Out
look," a wonderful spiritual mag
azine that will be helpful to the
organizations. i
This was the close of a wonder
ful missionary program. We then
enjoyed the fellowship of meeting
all present and talking with each
other. Delicious refreshments
were served to all. The Baptist
organization expressed their en
joyment of this meeting and ex
tended the invitation for the oth
ers to meet with them on Febru
ary 21, 1938 iu the Baptist As
sembly Hall.
Work with 4-H club members
