CORN CRACKER'S REPLY TO SMITH DEFENDER Tammany Defender Says Cleveland Writer Has 'Bit Off Too Much Ter ritory" i Shelby, R-5, Aug. 30. —People of [ intellectual endowments, always have corresponding 1 tolerant breadth as to religious and political opinions. No body but the Pope of Rome and some defenders of the vassal of Tammany who pose as Democratic candidate for Presidency of this Republic claim infallibility. This does not apply to all of the Tammany enthusiasts, for some have both intelligence and tol erence. But a lone wolf who contri butes literary hogwash from the wilds of Atlanta, Georgia, and calls the same a literary masterpiece, feels and acts like an inspired idiot who has relapsed. His fulminations dis grace the columns of the Open For um in a renowned metropolitan daily of this State, and his idiotic admirers raise a yell of approbation when he vents Billingsgate epithets upon Mel vin L. White, and esteem all vitupera tion, especially what strains the blankets of veracity, as sweet morsel under his tongue. You know the moon shines by reflected light; and some -i men receive notoriety by attacking their superiors and trying to provoke a blackguarding and flyblowing tournament. The head and front of my offend ing such puerile and egotistical weaklings, is my criticism of A 1 Smith, his understudy, St. John Ras kob, and for this, in the arrogant language of a certain political spell binder, I propose to declare, with out apology and without excuse, and no blustering, swashbuckling bully weighs enough to prevent my free dom of opinion and expression. The weakest and most illogical writers and speakers are very ve hement in criticism. They could pick the works of Homer, Milton and Dante to pieces, just as they could stand around in coppers breeches and a last year's straw hat, and spout lurid fulminations "agin" the late peerless Christian, patriot and states man, Col. W. J. Bryan on his "free silver heresy." In the American Rev olution they would have been Tories, because it required courage, intelli gence and ability to think, in all of which they could easily prove alibis. This imbecile buzzer yelps and howls with ungodly glee, because Melvin L. White, having not the fear of the Lord before his face but be ing instigated and seduced by the devil, perpetrates a split infinitive upon clientele of Charlotte Observer; at least so says this unshod, untu tored and ' unwashed adult moron from the wilds and purlieus of At lanta, Georgia. Then, with copious and unseemly mirth, he charges said Melvin *L. White with the heinous breach of peace, diginity and de corum by being a corn-fed philosoph er. A man who lives in a small, pre tentious but unimportant good-sized town that assumes metropolitan airs, is likely to "bite off too much ter ritory." Many of the charmed adherents of the Tammany candidate, swear that Tammany is a retreat for the pure in heart, where nothing unclean ever enters and lies are * unknown, that it came into being 139 years ago. That of such is the kingdom of the j infallible Pope of Rome, the person- j ification of the Deity of all benighted Roman Catholic worshippers. The organization was started into business in 1800, and Aaron Burr, justly class ed with such pernicious characters as Judas Iscariot and' Benedict Arnold. If the present Governor of New York was to issue a ukase to canonize Judas Iscariot, this mental moron from the wilds of Atlanta, Georgia, would yell, "Me too," with rapturous acclaim. Tammany was organized in 1800, and that subtracted from 1928, leaves 128 years. Figures are careful not to lie unless a liar manipulates the figures. One scribbling imbecile will say that more whiskey is made and used than when the. saloon was rampant, another says Smith can't change the constitution; still another justifies his arrant nullification and calls it statesmanship. The prayer of the dy ing agnostic, a polite name for a blatant infidel, was, "Oh, Lord, if there be a God, save my soul if I have a soul." The blasphemous innuendo trying to class St. Paul and the Di vine Carpenter of Galilee, as tipplers is of a piece with their ideas of truth, history and logic. I ■ ... MELVIN L. WHITE. THE FOREST CITY COURIER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1928 i NEW CHEESE INDUSTRY FOR MOUNTAIN FARMERS 1 ■ • | Raleigh, Sept. 3. —A new industry, carrying, a promise of a steady, re munerative market for the dairy farmers of northwestern North Car ' lina, has been started in West Jeffer son, Ashe County, with every prom ise of success. On Wednesday, August 23, about 1,000 farmers gathered at a picnic and field day to celebrate formally the opening of the local plant of the Kraft-Phenix Cheese Company. The new plant was started on July 23, just one month before and from a total of 1123 pounds of milk on the opening day, receipts of milk steadi ly increased to over 8,000 pounds per day at the time of the celebration. There are seven milk routes in oper atidn and 253 farmers are now sup plying the plant. The Kraft company is paying these men on a basis of 55 cents a pound of butterfat for whole sweet milk, making the milk worth about 20.4 cents a gallon deliv ered at the plant. The hauling charges will average about two cents a gallon. The milk so far is coming from shorthorn cattle but the farmers are interested in securing pure bred or grade dairy cattle and already small herds are being developed. O. L. Dar ter, manager of the cheese company for that section, states there is no reason why the farmers should not be receiving at least one million dollars a year within a short while and he expressed himself as being well pleas ed with the fine showing so far made. Establishment of the plant is large ly due to E. C. Turner, Jr., county agent of Ashe County and F. R. Farn ham, dairy extension specialist. These two men assisted by a local commit tee have been hard at work on the proposition for a number of months The new plant was equipped and be gun under the auspices of the com mittee with the understanding that if an average of 6,000 pounds of milk was received for thirty days, it would be taken over by the cheese company. Both parties fulfilled' their contracts. TRY SOME SPINACH FOR WINTER GREENS Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 3.—While j spinach is not in accord with some j folks 'ideas about what is good to j eat, it is an excellent green for winter and spring and commands a ready sale on most large markets. "The crop may be planted at inter vals during September and October to harvest during the late fall or it J may be sown in February for spring i harvest," says Robert Schmidt, vege | table specialist at State College. "The i fall crop is often left in the field over j winter and harvested in February or j March. The leaves may be injured j by heavy frosts but a side application of nitrate of soda will bring out new 1 leaves. The variety for fall planting is the Virginia Savoy which is blight | resistant. The best variety for spring planting is the Long Standing Bloomsdlale Savoy." In any case, states Mr. Schmidt, the i crop likes a rich, well drained, sandy loam soil. It does best on one that is slightly alkaline, hence lime should be applied a few days before plant i ing. Well rotted stable marture a l~ ; ways gives good results. The best commercial fertilizer is one analyz ing 8 per cent phosphoric acid, 9 per cent nitrogen and 3 per cent pot ' ash, applied at the rate of from 1,- j 600 to 2,000 pounds per acre. The i applications are best made at three |or four different times during the growing season. j Mr. Schmidt states that spinach is either planted in beds or sown broad east. The practice followed by the growers in North Carolina is to plant in raised beds, four rows wide with each row from 10 to 12 inches apart. : Put the seed in about one-half inch deep and when the plants have form ed four full leaves, thin to four or six inches apart. About 20 pounds of seed are required to plant an acre in this way. t Spinach is harvested by cutting the tap root just below the lower leaves. | All discolored leaves are removed and the crop marketed in bushel bask ets or ventilated barrels. An acre shoulcf produce from 300 to 400 bar rels of good spinach. I The mountain section of western North Carolina is destined to become one of the great dairy regions of the United States. Slowly and surely the farmers of this section are bringing this to pass. . Not only is sweet clover a good soil improving plant but it also is one |of the best honey yielding plants available in the State. SUCCESSFUL WEEK ! FOR HENRIETTA !
