Church and Market Place
In beginning his brief talk, 4 Mr.
Varser complimented the work bemir
done by the home and farm demon4
stration agents in Robeson conty.
He told of the time when in the Legis
lature some '"wayward joule- asked
him ' to abolish these offices. He asked
through The Robesonian for an ex
pression from the . citizens of : the
county as to , their idea i at i Mite
agencies. The result was that he re
ceived numerous petitions and - let
ters relative to them.. At least ; 90
per. cent of the expressions received
were against abolishing these offices.
Mr. Varser described the marketplace
and the church as being ;i centers, of
community, interest The speaker de
clared that the curb market would
mean much in the promotion of com
munity spirit and co-operation , be
tween the people living in the town
and ruraK districts. The importance
of developing a market for farm pro
ducej was . stressed by the speaker,
whr declared that the coming of the
boll weevil brought the neonle A this
faeetion .face to face with a change of
conaitions. - v -

' Miss Andrews, home demonstration
. agent, and Mr. O. O. Dukes, county

The importance of properly, grad
ing the produce offered is being rg
ed by. Miss Andrews and Mr. Dukes.
It was noted Saturday that the pro
duce properly handled and : aasortAd
found : more ready sale than - the
other. For instance, eggs that were
cleaned were sought more eagerly by
the purchasers than those brought in
with stain upon them. , , , -.
No doubt the curb market . will
