"I walked the streets of Washington, hnngry. Accordingly I wrote to Senator Pepper apprising him of y condition and expressed the hope that he would aid me to pro cure some kind of employment. Here ia a copy of the letter Cobbs ays he received bearing the name of Charles P. Swope, Senator Pepper's secretary: "Before effective consideration can be given to this matter, it will be necessary for you to file with Senator Pepper the indorsement of the political leaders in your com munity." Cobbs subsequently applied for admission to a veterans' hospital in Washington for treatment. signed by the President. It was this lot of papers from which .- lost somewhere between the Navy Depart ment and the White House, the pro test agains the leases of Admiral Griffin. It was Roosevelt who ser.t the United States Marines to maintain St. Clajr's possession of the Tea Pot Iioine. The President promotes Rear Ad miral Robison. Robison as the only high naval officer who approved the leasing plan. In fact, he became in terested in Doheny years before when young Doheny was a subordinate of ficer under him. Robinson originated the idea that the leasing laws pro tecting the Navy's oil could be circum vented by paying the oil leasors in oil for building storage tanks two bar rels of oil for storage for one barrel. AMENDMENTS AND ACTS TO BE VOTED I PON AT THE NOVEMBER ELECTION PUNISHING THE i. IT LTV President Coolidge is "punishing the guilty" in the Tea Tot Dome and other oil leases. He endorses young Teddy Roose velt for governor of New York. Young Roosevelt, who in his official conduct seems almost the exact opposite of his father, was the official who carried the papers in the lease matters to be Five proposed Acts and Amend ments to the state constitution of N. Carolina are to be submitted to a vote of the people at the next regular election, November 4th, 1924. The substance of these follows: 1. Ratification of the act known as the Port Bill. It is the Port Commis sion Boll. It provides for establish ment of ship anil water transporta tion along the coast and the inland waterway of the state; creates a port commission to direct the affairs. It authorizes the state treasurer to is sue eight millions five hundred thous and dollars of bonds to procure funds for this purpose. Seven million ($7, 000,000) is to be used for the con struction of ports and terminals (de pots) while the remaining 1,500,000 will be held in reserve for construc tion of a merchant ship line, should it be necessary for success of the pro ject. 2 The proposed amendment to the state constitution relative to the invi olability of the sinking fund, allowing the use of revenue, collected from taxes on automobiles and sale of gas oline for retiiemeiit of highway bonds. H. The Patterson Bill to increase the pay of the legislators from ?4 to $ 10 per day. 4. The proposed Amendment which would allow the owner of a mort gaged homestead valued at more than $S.000 to list only the value of the mortgage for taxation and the mortg age holder listing the other half, charging the present rate of interest of five-and-one-half per cent, on the mortgage to the full legal rate of six per cent. 5. The soldier homestead Act, in troduced by representative Frank Grist of Caldwell passed by the reg ular session of 1923, provides for the issuence of by the treasurer of two million dollars ($2,000,000) of bonds for purchase of homes, in sums not to exceed $2,500, to soldiers of the World War, residents of North Carolina. liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis.

Peacock will not be re turned to North Carolina unless the North Carolina authorities appeal from the decision rendered by a Cali fornia judge last week and are suc cessful in their appeal. The Govern or of California had honored the re quisition papers of North Carolina's Governor, but Peacock went into court and was released under habeas corpus proceedings, the court holding that he did not escape from prison, but from a hospital. Dr. Peacock's children were with him in the court room when the judge's decision w as announced. According to the report from California Dr. Peacock is living on a ranch in that state. Just what other steps the North Carolina authorities will take in their efforts to get Peacock back to the state are not known, no statements to that effect having been made. RICH BACHELOR WANTS WIFE Many people have blamed me for not getting married. Since child hood I have suffered from stomach and liver trouble, never being able to get any medicine or doctor to help me.

In some cases the in creased yield was as high as eight bushels per acre within trie game a- . netv. This in itself proves that it pays to select in the field, the seed corn for next year's planting, state the agronomy workers, j Seed carefully selected in the crib ! next spring is better than no sele:- tion at all because poor seed results in poor stands, waste of land and and labor and in low yields at harvest. Agronomy workers advise that before the corn is cut for shocking or be- ; fore it is gathered, go into the field ' and secure more than twice as much as will be needed for next year's planting. The grower needs to get his seed ears from the kind of stalks that he would like to have growing in his fields next year. When the desired amount has been secured, the ears should be stored in a place where they will be dry and fru from rats and weevils. Some good farmers hang their seed ears by strings or wires from the rafters and others use tight bins. Next spring, the best of these field selected ears may be used for seed and the remain der discarded. It is also wise to make a germination test before planting to be sure that a good stand will be secured.
