CANDIDATE SEAWELL
OPENS CAMPAIGN
Charlotte, Oct. 6.—Free text
books for North Carolina children
and lower taxes for the farmer, busi
nessman, merchant and manufactur
er, and a reduction in the number
of employees on the payroll of the
State government, will be advocated
bv Herbert F. Seawell of Carthage,
republican nominee for governor of
North Carolina, who Monday opened
his campaign, when he spoke ift
Lumberton.
Mr. Seawell asserts that taxes in
this State have increased 168 per
cent in the last decade, and that the
mimb<*»* f'* ''mnlovees have in
creased all out of proportion to tb
increase in per capita wealth of the
State.
In his addresses in the 50 coun
ties of the Coastal Central, Piedmont
and Western sections* of the State
Mr. Seawell will, according to his
announcement made here, advocate
also the shift of the burden of schools
from counties to the State govern
ment, where, he says; it is placed
by the State constitution.
In advocating these policies of
reform in State government Mr.
Seawell will be assisted by Jake F.
Newell, of this city, Mr. Seawell, it
was explained at State republican
headquarters here, is unable at this
time, due to having undergone re
cently a severe operation, to deliver
a lengthy address and will relie on
Mr. Newell to carry the burden.
THE CHATHAM RECORD
BUILD MANGUM TERRACES
TO CONTROL SOIL WASHING
Raleigh„ Oct. s.—ln one Piedmont
county; of tforth Carolina-90,000 ac
res of land have “been permanently
ruined by erosion and in another
county of the Coastal plain, 70,000
acres have been gullied beyond re
pair. Yet this damage could have
been averted by terracing the land.
“We have two kinds of erosion
in this State,’’ says A. T. Holman,
agricultural engineer at State col
lege. “One we easily recognize as
gullies causing heavy damage all ev
er the State and the other is sheet
erosion which removes a small depth
of soil from an entire field. In
North Carolina, 88 per cent of this
erosion occurs in the four months of
June, July, August and September.
In some cases we have found that
the top soil in many cotton and to
baceo fields will be washed away in
50 years if some protection is not
given. Grass sod, on the other hand,
will prolong the life of the soil
several thousnad years. Cultivated
slopes can be -saved fii only one way
and that is through the use of
terraces.”
Mr. Holman states that erosion not

only wastes plant food that is pur
t'hasfed and 'put into the soil but it
also actually destroys the soil. Three
times as much fertilizer is needed
to produce a crop on a clay subsoil
as on a loam or clay loam soil. To
rebuild an eroded top-soil takes a
good deal of time, much Work and
money. The value of the plant food
lost through erosion will exceed 200
million dollars' annually in the whole
United Spates, estimates Mr. Holman.
The Mangum terarces is the best
known means of controlling erosion
on North Carolina farms, said Mr.
Holman. This kind of terrace is a
