TO LOOK AFTER LOCAL ROADS.
We have been informed by reliable
sources that the present administration
in Cabarrus County intends to devote
the greater part of its road energy to
repairing local roads, leaving the
Highway roads to the State. It is con
tended.. and rightly so. we believe, j
that mahy of the most important roads
in this county do Hot connect county
seats, therefore do not get State recog
nition, and should, therefore, get all
of the attention of the county road
force. That policy will pay, and will !
bring better roads to the majority of
the people in the county.
The county only recently ordiped
rebuilt an important road leading front
the Harrisburg section to the Mecklen
burg county line. The road will con-,
liect with* the new State highway near
Harrisburg, and will give the people
of that part of the county a direct con
nection with Concord over an improv
ed road. The road to Mission. Cabar
rus and Goorgeviile will get attention
in the near jf liture. and Jill will be ppt
in first-class condition. The road load
ing to Rocky liiver Church is under
construction-now, and will be a mod
ern one when completed. A part of*
the chaingang is still at work improv
ing the road from Concord to Thunder
struck Bridge, and jhe county officials
intend to take the road on to the Un
ion Count* - line, thus giving the people'
of Cabarrus and Midland a modern
highway to Concord.
The road leading through No. 5
township also needs attention, and is
to receive it. we understand. The road
was in excellent shape several years
ago, hut it lias been allowed to go
down and is very rough at present. As
a result a number of the people of that
township are going to Salisbury and
Kannapolis with their produce and
for their shopping, as ,a good road
leads from the township to both Sal
isbury and Kannapolis.
These are important roads. In fact
there is nothing more important-to, a
county than its chain of roads, and if
the present administration in Cabar
rus can give its constituency a fair
and impartial system of roads it will
have accomplished a’great good. No
section of the county should he shown
favor, but all should be connected with
Concord with an improved system of
roads.*
AT SEAT OF TROUBLE
Chairman Hull, of the Democratic
Executive Committee, vin discussing
the recent announcement by Attorney
General Daugherty that President
Harding is to seek the Presidency
again, gets at the seat of the contro
versy over the nomination when he de
clares that if President Harding had
been so g *ed as even Jt he average Pres
ident, there never would have been
any doubt about the Republicans giv
ing hifn the nomination. And that’s a,
fact. The Republicans, as \v* 11 as ev
eryone-else, have sePiWhe weakness of
the President, and the fact that there
has been any discussion at all as to
whom the Republicans would nomi
nate shows very clearly that even
amoug his own . • party members the
President is \ regarded as a liability
rather than ah asset.
The Old Guard members will secure
the nomination at the next Republi
can convention for Mr. Harding, but
that does not mean that he will not
have serious opposition. The progres
sives, those Republicans who are in-
clined to be a little m«ie radical than
progressive, tffid certain of the conser
vatists even are tired of the present
, policies in Washington, and they know
well enough that Mr.xllarding is too
old and too learned in the ways of the
“bosses” ,to change now.
The overwhelming majorities en
joved by Democrats at the polls last
t
November, together with the fact that
his party members have not unani
mously agreed that, he is their candi
date show the weakness and unpopu
larity of the Harding administration.
HONOR FOR STATE.
A North Carolina county now has
the distinction of ranking third in the
United States in cotton spindlage. This
distinction belongs to Gaston County,
which, according to a recent survey of
the Gastonia Chamber of Commerce,
has a total producing cotton spindlage
of 1,130,675. This figure carries Gas
ton past Middlesex County, Mass., and
leaves only Bristol County, Mass.,
and Providence County, Rliodb Island,
ahead of it. Only those mills in oper
ation or under contract were counted
in the Gaston survey, this bringing the
total to ninety-eight. This total gives
the county more mills than any other
county in the United States.
The survey shows that the mills of
Gaston lmve a total capitalization of
$35,979,600. There are 3,396 looms.
The total number of operatives em
ployed is 16,183 and the annual pay
roll for 1922 was .$8,542,86. The mills
maintain 5.282 cottages for their oper
atives. Annual gross sales for 1922
were' $57,440,246.27. The mills con
sumed during the year 212,500 bales of
cotton.
The Gaston mills have been among
the most prosperous in North Caro
lina. and they have done much to gain
for this State the enviable textile rep
utation she now enjoys.
BABSON ON THE SOUTH.
Roger Bubison, the great statistician,
admits that he is "very bullish on the
South for the long pull." He also ad
vises the rest of the country to “watch
the South" and believes that f .cue
time perhaps, the South will wrest
the industrial' and agricultural Su
premacy from the North and Wert,
stating that we have the natural re
sources here and are beginning now-to
see the great opportunities we have.
He is making a personal tour of in
spection of the South, getting facts
and figures, and these impress him
very much.
“I ain very bullish on the S-mth for
the long pull.” says Mr. Babson. "Ala
bama may become the greatest indus
trial state in America, and Florida
may become greatest agricultural
state. The South has afl the basic
natural resources —climate,. ph<v*
plmtek fuel, waterpower and shipping
facilities. All the south needs is more
‘vision’ and more of that indescribable
‘something’ which makes things go.
Mufbover, the south is fast getting
that vision. Every southern city and
every southern state is evidence of
this fact. The South is waking up'
and the North and West must look out
or they will some day be outclassed,
both industrially and agriculturally.
“It was only a few years ago that
cotton mills were built in the South.
Today some*of the finest mills in the
world are in Georgia, the varolinas
and Texas. Moreover, the workers
in these mills are a splendid group of
sturdy Americans of whom we all
may well be proud. But the industrial
south is not dependent upon cotton
mills" Iron and steel plants, great
chemical plants, mills and factories
of aIL kinds are now found in this
section. New factories —Stimulated
partly by the increase in railroad
freight rates —are springing up every
day in Alabama, Texas, Louisiana,
Georgia, the Oarolinas and Mississippi.
Considering the strategic location for
Latin-Ameriean export trade and its
nearness to the center of population
in the United States, the South is
bound to grow industrially.”
GETTING SOMETHING DONE.
Judge Stack, of Monroe, is of the
opinion that our courts move too slow
ly, and recently in Greensboro he
warned everyone connected with Guil
ford Superior Court that when a cash
was called he wanted the witnesses
and lawyers to he on hand. And just
to show that he meant what he said,
he lined a man SBO for being late when
he hod been summoned to appear as a
witness.
, We hope some other Judges will fol
low this excellent example set by the
Monroe Judge. It happens a great
many times that when cases are call
ed it takes some little time to get the
witnesses on hand, and in some in
stances lawyers themselves have to be
sent for, or court has to w&it until the
lawyers reach the courthouse. Such
practices delay the eourre and ft re
1 partly responsible for the great conges
tion in our courts. The average wit
ness does not like to appear in court,
but if he is summoued he has to at
tend uud he wiglet as well be on time
as to be there late. And by attending
•promptly he will assist in the worl: of
ithe court and save the State someymon
| ey.
j. OUR GAIN.
Isadora Duncan has sailed .for I'ius
(sia or some other European country.
She lost her citizenship ostensibly be
cause she married a Russian, but real
ly because this country doesn’t desire
citizens of her type. The woman is
a dancer and claims to he an artist.
When she was being examined rela
tive to hbr deportation she handed out
some stuff like this:
“I would rather live in Russia on
blade bread and vodka than in the
United States at the best hotels. 1
am against prohibition, newspapers,
and the wprld in general that lies this
side of Paris and Moscow. The peo
ple in this country'do not want art.
They don’t know what it is. I came
here to give them art and they put
me on Ellis Island. No prohibition
country for mine. Some of the lienor
I drank here would kill an elephant.
It would have killed me if 1 had stay
ed much longer.”
The Greefiville, S. t\, News says it
is “too bad that such a nice young
lady shouldn’t fto allowed to tell this
Wicked country about art; she would
have had an uplifting influence.” The
News.adds that the woman is entitled
to her choicer and if she takes Russia,
all the better for the United States.
There are plenty of such people
here and they all can leave for all we
care. They help nothing and nobody.
Fruit experts in western North*Car
olina and Georgia believe much dam
age was done to tpe peach, plum and
pear crops by-the recent cold snap. Ap
ples in the western part of this State
had not advanced as far as peaches
in other sections, and therefore were
not as badly damaged. The exact
amount of damage will not be known
for several days. In Asheville and
other sections of the Avcstcrn par; of
the State the temperature dropped
froift 45 to 13 degrees above zero, and
in this section the drop was in the
same proportion, from about ,»0 to 20
degrees, above zero. Fnless the ex t
perts are mistaken, tliery will he a
shortage of peaches in this Slate and
in Georgia this year. |

Fruit Loss Estimated at About 36
Pit Cent.
Statesville, March 21. C—The .turn
age to fruit crop in this section, cue
to the freeze Monday night, is about
30 per cent, according to estimate
made by F. T. iMeacham. superin
tendent of the Iredell experiment st<\;
tion.
* “I believe that just, prior to the
frost there were at least 30 per cent
of the peach, plum and pear trees
in bloom.” said Mr. Meacham yester
day. “I went over the orchards this
morning and found that all* those that
were in bloom had been killed. Of N
course the loss may net be as great
as 30 per cent, but judging from the
apparent condition of the trees. 1 be
lieve that the above estimate ’is a
conseFvative one. The crop in this
locality is going to be a very light
cnef in my estimation.”

SMOKE SC REENS TO
PROTECT PEACHES
Dense Black Smudge Hovers Under
Georgia Orchards Endangered by
’Uoldf
Fort Valley, Ga.. March ID.—The
Georgia peach belt covering thousands
of acres of land which was yesterday
a sea of pink blossoms, tonight was
being protected by a smoke screen
from hundreds of smudge pots in ev
ery orchard.
“It is a critical period „for the or
chardists." declared <>. I. Sapp, in
charge of .the Failed States Peach
Laboratory. “We are expecting a j
tCffiiperatme ns as 25 during the
night. If the temperature goes to 23 j
degrees there will be serious damage j
to peach trees that are in full bloom.” j
The Weather Bureau at Macon. Ga.. j
thirty miles from here, today issued a j
special warning informing peach grow-!
ers that a temperature as low as 27 or !
29 degrees may be expected during .
the night.
The smudge pots wore touched off j
late this afternoon. The growers aio,
using* sawdust, green pine and cotton
seed hulls. A stiff wind from the)
northwest was carrying a heavy black !
smoke screen throughout the belt.
The growers wore using three-pound j
peach cans packed with cottonseed j
hulls, then saturated with petroleum. I
These'cans were being placed one to!
every forty trees, while sawdust and;
pine fires were kindled to every fif
teenth or twentieth row in the orch
ards.
WHY BUILD A SILO?
Furnish Feed For Winter When Pas
ture Is Not Available.
Raleigh, March 21.—The reason
why silos are growing in popularity
in North Carolina is because they
furnish a feed for winter use that
comes nearest to giving the same re
sults as a good summer pasture. Si
lage furislied succulent food when pas
ture is jiiot available, it makes possible
a cheap feed ration and gives the
grower a greater value for his corn.
These are some of -the reasons ad
vanced by E. R. Rainey, extension ,
farm engineer for the State College’
and Department of Agriculture, for
building silo this summer.
Mr. Raney states that the man who
is feeding from 10 to 12 cows without
using a silo is not feeding as econom
ically as be might. A coW will con
sume about 30 pounds ol’ silage per
day anil under North Carolina condi
tions it is advisable to plan for at j
least two tons per cow which will car- j
rv lier about four months: The size
of the silo will dept aid on the liumbo.V
of cows to be fed, says Mr. Raney,
and where a grower lias less than fif
teen head, bis silo should be about 10 j
feet in .diameter; from 15 to 25 head, j
not over 12 fe.et in diamerter *and for
25 to 40 head, not over 14 feet in di
ameter.
The most common types of
used are concrete, woden stave, modi-'
tied Wisconsin, and wooden lidop.
Tarheel farmers seem to like the cun- j
Crete and wooden stave better tjian ;
all others. The concrete silo can be ;
built for $3.00 to $3.50 per ton capacity
and will last iudefiinitely when prop-1
erlr constructed. The stave silo can j
Ik* built for about $2.00 pur ton cap
acity and will last from 5 to 15 years.
Mr. Raney will he available for giv
ing help and adviiv in silo building;
during tln*- period extending from ;
June 1 to September 15 and those who
will need his assistance this summer
should write him now so as to he.
placed on the list. At the same time,,
lie suggests that those farmers plan- !
ning to build a silo should also plan
their corn acreage figuring one ton of
silage for each five bushel yield of
corn given by the land.
