Say "I Saw It In The Watchman.’’ Protect Winter Grain From Insect Damage Carbon disulphide or carbon te trachloride may be used effectively to kill insects in stored grain this winter, says C. H. Brannon, exten sion entomologist at State College. A barrel or other container which can be made air tight will be suit able. Fill the barrel with grain, pour in half a cupful of the chemi cal, then fasten two thickness of heavy wrapping paper on the bar rel top. If the seed is heavily in fested, a full cup of the disulphide or tetrachloride may be used. After two or three days, examine the seed. If any insets are still a live, repeat the process. The seed should be kept in air tight contain ers until ready to plant, or insects will reinfest it. When ready to plant, spread out on the floor and the gas will evaporate in a short time. Storage bins may be used to treat seed in large quantities if the bins 1 are fairly air tight. Twenty pounds 1 of the disulphide will be enough for each 1,000 cubic feet of space in the bin. After pouring it on the seed, cover with sacks to help hold ■ in the gas. I The treatment should be applied | in the middle of the day when the | temperature is warmest, as greater 1 efficiency is obtained at 75 degrees j|or higher. Air slasked lime may also be used 3 to treat grains for insects. In treating quantities of seed, equal j parts of lime and seed may be used. 3 For small amounts, the ratio of j lime should be larger than that of the seed, Brannon advises. k " * ; A disptach from Raleigh says , Belk, department store owners, has begun an action against Commis : sioner Maxwell for the refunding "I of taxes erroneously collected al ■ leging that they were charged on j the basis of some forty-six stores I in the state whereas, as a matter of fact, they only owned four and should be charged for only those four. Belk alleged in the complaint that chain store ownership for this special tax should apply only to I two stores in Charlotte, one in j Mooresville and one in King’s ■Mountain, which are run under one j corporate charter. The amount of j recovery sued for is S3,670. | Mr. Harry Padkett, manager of i the Statesville Belk store, stated | to a Record reporter that all of the j dcik stores except the tour named were chartered separately and that - | the system did not believe that they | came within the purview of the | ! statute, hence the effort to recover from the state.—Statesville Record. ____ i j They talk about a call to arms over in Europe, but it may turn out to be a call to their legs to run out of danger as fast as possible.

Budd Manufacturing Co., headed by Edward G. Budd, lower left, the Zephyr, center, the world’s fastest passenger train. The two Budds are hot related. THE newest development in rail way transportation — stream lined, light-weight, stainless steel equipment — promises to provide employment for many thousands of men in the very near future, in the opinion of Edward G. Budd, presi dent of the Edward G. Budd Manu facturing Co., of Philadelphia. Be fore the end of the year 500 addi tional men will have been employed by the Budd Co. as the result of an order for a light-weight, stainless steel train from the Boston and Maine railroad, and orders for two additional Zephyrs from the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad. The Burlington’s first Zephyr, which recently startled the entire nation into a consciousness that something new and dramatic was taking place in railway develop ment, is now recognized as the world’s fastest train. It is, of course, also the lightest, weighing only one eighth as much per passenger as the typical overland train. An indication of its comparative speed may be gained from the fol lowing illustration: Starting simul taneously with one of our fastest overland trains, the stream-lined, stainless steel Zephyr will be six miles ahead by the time both have reached a speed of 90 miles an hour. The first Zephyr, which made its phenomenal dawn-to-dusk run from Denver to Chicago in thirteen hours and five minutes is now on exhibi tion at A Century of Progress in Chicago. Later it will be placed in service between Lincoln, Nebr. and Kansas City, Mo. Additional cooperation from the Federal government is anticipated by the railroads of this country, and if this develops it is almost a cer [ Belk Starts Suit For >j Recovery Of Taxes > WASHINGTON d.c Overlooking the spacious beauty of Capitol Plaza and just a block and a half from the Union Sta tion. .an ideal location in Washington.

The railroad equipment of the future will undoubtedly be patterned along the lines of the Zephyr—self-powered trains which permit a maximum of speed with a minimum of operating cost. These stainless steel trains can carry 150 persons 1000 miles and still burn less than S15.00 worth of crude oil. Overall operating costs, including fixed charges, are one-half that of commensurate steam service. It is the opinion of Ralph Budd, president of the Burlington, that from now on railroad electrification will mean a “matter of mounting the power plant on the train itself I instead of the generating station being possibly a hundred or more miles away. Bringing the power plant and traction motors close to gether in this way eliminates energy transmission and transformations, removes the need for trolley or third rail contacts and allows the primary generation of low-voltage direct current which presents simple problems of control.” An interesting coincidence in con nection with the country’s first high speed stainless steel train is that it was ordered, practically speaking, by a railroad head named Budd from an industrial leader named Budd. Ralph Budd, head of the Burlington, and Edward G. Budd, head of the Budd Manufacturing Co., are not related, although an impression seems to prevail that they are brothers. As a matter of fact, they first met several years ago when the railroad president came to Philadelphia to inspect stainless steel train construction.

One hundred and fifty interna tionally-famous funmakers cavort a.nd caper about the seven rings and stages and the huge hippod rome track this year in the most stupendous circus presentation ever offered. Clowns have always been an important part of the circus and the amusement world was amazed and delighted when an even hun dred of them were brought to gether for the first time by Ringling Bros, and Barnum & Bailey. But when 15 0 of the funniest clowns imaginable were placed on the same program in a simultaneous display this spring, the enthusiasm of cir cus-goers knew no bounds. The big show, however, has a jealously guarded refutation for doing the new and unheard-of and there is evidence of this through out its gigantic new performances this season. Besides the clowns, there are 800 men and women arenic stars of in ternational eminence, many of them touring the America con tinent for the first time. Several of the producing clowns have introduced splendid ideas into this year’s all new and greatly en larged opening spectacle, The Dur bar of Delhi in which more than 2,000 people and animals take part. The Durbar heads a list of features newly assembled that will compel the vast 1934 program to be re called with deep pleasure for a life time. Among them is a great new con gress of the world’s foremost ac robatic champion leapers and some saulters presented together in the most amazing athletic contest ever witnessed and a series of thrilling innovations including a startling new sensation presented by the Great Hugo.

Concentration is often impossible when two or three children are forced to huddle about one lamp to do their home work. The glare of light from incorrect fixtures is often injurious to young eyes which need the soft correct lighting that properly designed lamps provide. You are retarding the progress of your children when you handicap them with improper lighting which leads to eyestrain, inability to concentrate and often headaches. You can keep their^ eyes bright and their minds keen throughout life if you give them the proper start under correct lighting.
