Community Fairs. Last week I mentioned something about the fairs for this fall, both com munity and county. I did not however mention the dates of the different Community Fairs, and I am "sure that you are interested in this, and they will be as follows: Flint Hill, Wed nesday, September 17th; Holly Springs, Thursday, September 18th; and Farmer, Friday, September 19th. As stated before the purpose of these fairs are educational, recreative and to boost the communities in an ailver- Senator LaFollette, candidate for president dt the Independent Progres sive ticket, hardly hope to obtain ment will probably be around August enough electoral votes in the fall eiee- . ,4th.

New York state for of which only 623,532 are bearing, instance has 43 representatives in the acre and be convinced Winter Grazing for Poultry fcvery farmer -should be getting something green started for the poul try this winter. Rape and Kale are two of the hardiest and surest crops that we can plant and we should be ready to plant one or both of these 1 crops, not later than the first week in August. About the second week in September another planting should be made, and then another in late Feb ruary or March. These three plant ings should furnish a regular supply of grazing all through the winter and early spring. Along with the Rape or Kale I would suggest that you sow Oats as it will make fine grazing in the fall and if the winter is not too severe will last throughout the winter, and certainly put it with the March sowing. ' Crops of this kind are very It takes five years to bring a peach tree into bearing. In five years the number of bearing trees in the Sand hills will be tripled. This means shipments of about 6,000 car loads of peaches at the lowest estimate, and it is reasonable to suppose that the figure wili be nearer 9,000 cars. The canning industry has not been developed in the VSandhills and it is evident that the expansion of this industry is next on the program of the peach growers. Using way. It will be my purpose to .important to the egg production at! get the very best men available to take part in the judging and lecture part of these fairs. Randolph is for tunate this year in her crops, and should have good exhibits for the fairs this fall. The District Fair at Pinehurst also offers good premiums and I hope that Randolph farmers the season of the year when eggs are high. Definite records have been se cured by Dr. B. F. Kaupp of the N. C. Experiment Station, showing that hens with plenty of green grazing will double the egg production of hens fed the same in other respects. This is done at the season of the year when MONTGOMERY TO HAVE COUNTY FAIR will plan to save some exhibits after eggs are high, and in addition to the the county fair to carry to Pinehurst. doubling of the production of eggs Terrace Now. Ithe hens on green feed will not eat Land that is to be put in small near as much of the other feeds as grain this fall should by all means be the other hens thus producing much terraced if the land is inclined to cheaper eggs if they were only pro- wash. No man can improve his farm as long as it is washing away every time it rains. Soil conservation comes before soil improvement, so remember the terraces this fall. Every commun ity should have a Bostrum Level, but if you do not have this a good home made level will answer the purpose. The County Agent will help as much as possible with the terracing but you most realize that it would be im possible for him to do it all. ducing the same amount. Fifty Farmers Wanted The County Agent is very anxious to make an Agricultural Tour . this summer as soon as the crops are in shape so that we can leave them. What do you think of it ? Visit several counties that have the same problems that we have and see how they are handling them. Visit the State Ex periment Farm at Statesville, which is nearer our soil conditions than any Montgomery county will have a fair this fall. This was the decision reached at a meeting of a number of interested citizens in Troy Wednesday evening of last week. The organiza tion has been perfected with W. L. Wright of Troy, president. A tract of land containing twelve acres just outside the city limits has been pur chased""and the grounds will be made ready for the fair which will be held October 21st to 24th. Mr. W. C. York of Asheboro was present at the meeting and has charge of signing up tne attractions for the lair, lie was house. Twenty-two are democrats and twenty-one are republicans. Therefore New York's one vote would be cast for Davis, presuming that both republicans and democrats stuck to their colors. The constitution pro vides also that the candidate must receive a majority of the states. There are twenty state delegations in the house controlled by the demo crats and 23 controlled by the repub licans, rive state delegations are tied. It would take thel votes of 25 states to elect in the house. The re publicans" fall short two of that num ber and the democrats five. There fore, if both democrats and republi cans should vote consistently for their respective candidates neither would be able to secure a majority. It would then be up to the senate to elect a vice president who would in turn be come president in view of the failure of the house to act. In the senate each senator has a vote and unless the democrats or the republicans could win over some members of the La Follette group there could be no re sult in that body. There is a general presumption that in the end the La Follette group of senators would vote for the democratic candidate.
