HELD OF BEANS 13 MILES LONG Hyde County Has One Of The Largest Bean Fields In The World; Also Grows Rice. Kinston, Aug. 5.—Word had here is that New Holland, plantation east of Swan Quarter which used to be a lake, will produce its finest crops this year. One of the sights there is a soy bean field 131/4 miles in length, one of the largest fields in the world and probably the largest devoted to beans. Rice and corn yields promise to be heavy. New Holland was Mattamuskeet lake before the water was pumped from it and it became a farm 18 miles long and nine miles wide. It is criss crossed by canals and roads. Its execu tives and laborers live in a modern ho tel and modern cottages. The hotel is surrounded by landscaped grounds. Its second-story porches afford a view of the entire farm, one of the largest and most unique plantations anywhere. A gigantic pumping plant keeps it from flooding again. The state is improving the road which leads to Mattamuskeet. It has been in bad condition a part of the time recently, but many visitors have braved it to see the New Holland farm and the "earth fires” along it. The peaty soil of Hyde county is burning at a number of points, but none of the blazes is of a threatening nature. NOT UNUSUAL "How did you come to raid that barber’s shop?” the dry agent was asked.

CO-OP FINANCE CO. 202 Wachovia Bank Bldg. CHECK FLASHER ESCAPES FROM ROCKINGHAM STORE Rockingham, Aug. 5.—A check flasher giving the name of Sam J. Bowen tried his trick on the Penney store here, buying $29 worth of goods and offering a Bank of Boone check for $72.04. Manager M. C Thomas a few minutes earlier had received a letter from the Penney store at States ville warning about the same man; but before an officer could be reach ed, the stranger skipped. ORGANIZED CRIME COSTS BILLIONS, SAYS CHURCHMAN Oldfashioned Crimes Are Growing Less As Such Do Not Pay Well For Risk Involved. Dr. Ralph W. Sockman, of New York, spoke recently at the Leader ship Training school of the Methodist church, South, at Lake Junaluska, on "Gentlemen and Gangsters,” saying that organized crime was as efficient as modern business as it was costing the citizens of the United Sattes as much as they pay in taxes to the Fed eral government. "Gentlemen and Gangsters” was Dr. Sockman’s subject and he pointedly called attention to the fact that all gangsters are confined to the tough sections of the city. "The crime bill of the United States today,” the speaker declared, "exclusive of the business racket, is placed by some competent observers at six billion dollars and by others as high as 16 billion dollars annaully. When we add the business racketeer ing to this item, we are told that we Americans are paying as much to the invisible government of crime as we are paying in taxes to our Federal government for the conduct and pro tection of our country. "The old-fashioned crimes, like housebreaking and train robberies, are growing less for the reason they do not pay well enough in proportion to the risks involved. Crime has become organized like modern business. It flourishes-today because its organiza tion can guarante^immunity to its Schultz, Jack aders of the ally fight the lizations eith tnesses before '"matters with , influence the local courts. If we are to secure more convictions of our criminals we must attack not so much the laxity of our police as the corruption of those high er up. "For the reforming of our city crime conditions, we must have the co-operation of our State and Federal authorities. In New York, we citizens may be no worse individually than are the residents of rural sections, but we have become almost hopeless about cleansing our politics of their alliance with crime. Unless the country at large can bring its censure and its aid to bear upon our cities like New York and Chicago, law and order are seem ingly doomed in such metropolitan centers. t Wonder what has become of the chap who wore galluses and kept pins in the lapel of his coat. “IF I got constipated, TN0S * I would get dizzy and have swimming in my head.

E. McKinney, Orange | Park, Fla. mii | i GARDNER SEEKS REDUCTION IN CROP ACREAGE State Has Cut Cotton Acreage 2 8 Per Cent Since 1929, Governor Tells Texas Executive. Raleigh, Aug. 5.—Governor Gard ner has sent a telegram to Governor Sterling, of the southwestern empire, giving wholehearted commendation to the Texans in their desire to reduce cotton acreage. The only very serious rival that taxes has in cotton culture BIRDS REFERRED TO 290 TIMES IN BIBLE, ACTUAL COUNT SHOWS i - is North Carolina. This state seems to best all its sisters in growing two stalks or two bales of cotton where the com monwealths produce a whole crop of politicians. And Governor Gardner’s county, Cleveland, beats the world in acreage production. In talking calico to Mr. Gardner, therefore, Mr. Ster ling was addressing the champion cot ton culturist. Governor Gardner flung in a fine word for North Carolina in making his manners to Texas. Since 1929 North Carolina has cut its cotton acreage 28 per cent. There must be a hint to Texas in that. And the in evitable conclusion is that had Texas reduced its crop in the same. --------- I HARDIMAN & SON 1 8 38 HARDWARE, PAINTS, ROOFING, RADIOS 1 st g st st I PHONE 1365 308 SALISBURY AVE. § :« s: St £ SPENCER, NORTH CAROLINA | I | £tStSiSESt£E£tSQ3£t38$£i£(StSt£tSt13St£tSE£t£tSt£tSi£!S£StStSt£C£tStSt£tSt£tStSSStStSEStSESt£tStStS!StSi •A"A,A,WA*A,‘A"AHAWA,WWKWWWW/fWA"A"A,WWWA1WA"A'WA“A*w*”*"*»*‘**"*»*"»"*»A»*»*»v*»ww*..A. CfJ Saw It in The Watchman,” Thank You! There are at least 290 references to birds in the Bible, says the American Forestry Association.. Thirty-one spe cies are mentioned. One hundred and thirty of the birds mentioned are gen eral in the sense that they refer simp ly to birds as such. The rest refer to certain species. According to Alexander Sprunt, Jr., in the May issue of American Forests, the magazine of the association, the dove is mentioned thirty-five times; the eagle, thirty-two; the raven the cock and the hen are mentioned, twelve times each. The owl is men tioned eleven times; the pigeon, ten; the sparrow, seven; the stork, six; the pelican, five; the quail, swaollw and vulture, four times each; the ostrich, bittern peacock and cormorant, three times each; the crane, partridge, ossi frage, osprey, kite, cuckoo, hawk, her on, nighthawk and lapwing, twice each. "Birds antedate man himself,” says Mr. Sprunt, "for in the Genesian scale of creation they are second of the [creatures which were endowed with life. First came the denizens of the sea, then the birds. After the account of the creation, one of the earliest mentions of birds is at the time of the deluge. When the patriach Noah was desirous of ascertaining whether the waters were subsiding it will be re called that he employed two kinds of birds, at first a raven; and then a dove.” BOURNE WILL TAKE OFFICE OCTOBER 30 Charlotte, Aug. 5. — Henry C. Bourne, of Tarboro, newly elected state commander of the American le gion, will be inducted into office Oc tober 30, it was learned from J. M. Caldwell, of Mooresville, state adju tant. At that time the state hedaquarters will be moved to Tarboro, since it is the custom for the office to be main tained at the home of the commander. Until then. Con C. Johnston, of Mooresville, the retiring commander, will remain in office. Mr. Caldwell said the place for the ceremony in which Mr. Bourne will be installed formally as head of the North Carolina legionnaires had not been decided.
