C. ; TRY OUR CLASSIFIED COLUMN FOR RESULTS COTTON REPORT Raleigh, July 8. —The cotton crop is short of the probable needs despite everybody saying "I told you so" concerning the 10 per cent increase in acreage of the south ern cotton crop. The condition of 71 per cent of a full crop was lower than they expected, for that is only two per cent above last 'year's condition for June 25th. North Carolina is forecast ed by the National Crop Report ing Board to have a 13 per cent increase in acreage and three fourths of a full crop prospect, which is nine per cent better than at this date la-st year, but 12 per cent less than the final conditional average showed. "The state's acreage is still less than in 1919, reports Co-operative Crop Reporting Service for North Carolina. "The condition of the cotton crop is expressed as late, grassy, small and in need of dryer conditions to permit of cultiva tion and grass killing. "The national prospect of 11,- 065,000 bales, would be 139 per cent more than last year's crop but only per cent of that made two years ago. It is claimed by some organizations that the pres ent prospect will not meet the trade's requirements. - "In North Carolina, the boll weevil is gaining conspicuous headway along the southern bor der in Robeson. The crop will be perhaps damaged heavily. No ap preciable reduction has been made in any of the counties excepting Columbus 50 per cent, Brunswick 65, and slight decreases in acreage of counties just north-east of these. "The areas of increased acreage is just north of the effective area of the weevil. Lincoln to Polk shows considerable increase, also Northampton to Hyde and the ad joining portions of Barnett, John son, Wake and a strip along south ern Nash through Edgecombe. "The fertilizer sold for the past spring shows an increase of almost 40 per cent in North Carolina but the heavy rainfall will reduce its effect considerably. A consider able reduction in the usage of cot- Iton seed meal is noticeable. Stop talking about your trou bles. Take Tanlac. Reinhardt Drug Co. SUNSHINE NEEDING A PHYSICIAN BADLY "Sunshine, Rutherford county, N. C., is a community which is badly in need of a physician, there being none nearer than ten miles," according to Mr. James B. Bigger staff, the well-known music teach er and farmer of that community, who was in Shelby recently, says the Shelby Highlander. "I am willing to give one acre and sell two or three acres to some physician who is willing to build a home at Sunshine and lo cate there. Or, I will sell my en tire farm, if the doctor prefers. Ours is a good community and the people are good pay. There are good schools and churches and a citizenship above the average. The climate is healthful, but even the best climates need physicians. Since the death of Dr. Thompson and the indisposition of Dr. An drews, we have been badly in need of a community doctor," said Mr. Biggerstaff, whose address is "J. B. Biggerstaff, Bostic, R. F. D. 2, N. C." and who will be glad to an swer inquiries from physicians. "It is one medicine that does all that's claimed for it." Thou sands have said it about Tanlac and so wili you if you try it.

Irving, of the Big Springs church community, Hollis, was operated for appen dicitis recently and is doing well. She is 72 years old.

GOOD JOKE FROM FOREST CITY GIRI The Sunday Charlotte Observer carries a page of Pithy Para graphs, offering a prize for the best one. In last Sunday's issue was the following from Miss Leo Padgett, of Forest City: Jones (boasting to Brown). — I'll tell you, Brown, I'm king at my house. My wife don't boss me. Brown —Yes, you're king, all right. I was at your house when your wife crowned you with a rolling pin. Tanlac is a splendid tonic for puny, frail, delicate children. It is purely vegetable and contains no minerals or opiates. Rein hardt Drug Co. When the wife of a no account loafer gets a divorce she knows she can't get any alimony out of him,, but she at least has the con solation cf knowing she won't have to support him any longer.
