President Lawson Appeals To Farmers 1 Thinks Union Members Should Co-Operate and Full Together—Members Urged To Attend Next County Meeting. Oanbury Route 1. Oct. 27. Brother Farmers: As interest in the Farmers' Vnion seems to be gradually de clining 1 would like to say a few words in regard to the matter. Why is it that you will not co-operate'.' Why will you not stay organizedV Can you not see that the other fellow is pro fiting by our disorganization and by our not holding together as we should? Look where tobac co went to in the way of prices while we were organized and pooling our tobacco, and now see the difference. It makes me sick when I think of the work, worry and valuable time spent in getting the farmers together and the money spent in building a dry prizery. i'hat dry prizery ought to be paid for and running now. If it were you would see a difference in the price of to bacco. 1 trust that every Union man ! n Stokes county read brother Flippin's letter in the Reporter ■ f last week. He gave us some v lain truths. Brother, can't you see that tobacco is low and fertilizer is •" 'c. in the bag higher a: the station when w>' have r 3 How lo Make A lump.

Now. brethren. 1 want to see every one of you at our county - meeting in Danburv on Novem v ber 13th. and come with the de -1 termination to do something, t 1 Brother, if we do not co-operate t and stand shoulder to shoulder t we will regret it. We will be -1 worse for not sticking together 11 and doing things. 5 1 Are we going to keep making ■ tobacco at a loss or about half 5 cost of production'.' How do we I ever expect to educate our child ? ren? How long are we going to 1 stand by and see our produce , that costs us so much in labor go t' for a song and we pay them to • sing the song at that. : May the good Lord help us • to do what is right and may we r be brave and stand for what is 1 right. Brother, you see what it has cost us by not pooling our last I i three years, so come to the coun r ty meeting, every one of you, r whether you have paid your > dues or not, and lets see what t can be done. 1 Fraternally, r J.

It is t a good plan still further to pro ■ tect it from rain and snow by a 1 roof of some sort, if only an old tarpaulin or piece of oilcloth. THE DANBURY REPORTER Earth Shocks Felt At Asheville Early Today. Asheville, Oct. 29. — Two dis | tinct earth shocks were felt in this tfity at 12:35 o'clock this j morning. The shocks came j about two minutes apart and lasted for only a Jew seconds each. Houses in all parts of the city were shaken, and many peo -1 pie were aroused from sleep. e Telephone inquires from various y points in the surrounding coun i- try indicated that the shock was general. So far as can be learn ed no serious damage was done. e r Sudden Death Threatens Many. New York, Oct. 25. —That sud r den death bv smoke and fiame is I always hanging over more than f a million poor people who crowd f the twenty thousand old-fashion ,ed tenements of the seamy side ? of this citv, was admitted today ■' by municipal officials who are recent fires that ?: have completely gutted such 5 tinder-box structure. Scores of } victims have already been suf -1 focated or burned in their bods |in the outbreak of tenement 5 ' blazes this summer, the records ? ,show, while the most heroic s efforts of the tire departnu-nt have failed to check the Haines, that surely spread through their wooden interiors, in time to re scue the human leings packed in every room, Though the •! landlords who fatten on the r rental of the tlimsy barracks t seem to evade technical violation of the tire laws, their occupation l is no less perilous than that of the European trenches, the 'ire fighters declare. . I ■; PRINTERS' INK SUAE CURE. 11 r N 'rthC\iiv>!m.iStaU'Bodrd o» Hr.iitli One »' ;'i ■ First to t! Recogi.t/c ■ 'Bulletin of the State Hoard of ? i Health*. 1 1 When Mr, 11. A. Moree, of • New York City, said that printers ' ink is saving more lives than any ': other sinele agency employed by " modern health workers, he voiced what has been the opinion of the ' North Carolina State Board of ' Health for a number of years. The North Carolina State Board ;of Health was .mo of the f first State boards not only to rec ognize th-j p nver of printers' ink as a health factor but to em , ploy it as such. It has been the policy of this j b >ard for one or two J, years ,to issue daily and. ; weekly ! articles to all the State! papers featuring health work in its di:- • ferent forms and numerous phases. Besides this it issues a | ; monthly Health Bulletin to 50,- OUU or more North Carolina read ers, and sends out free health ! literature by the hundred pounds weekly. , That."printers' ink should be entered in the pharmacopoeia as an accredited remedy for human ills" as suggested by Mr. Moree is a motion with which the State Boord of Health of North Caro lina heartily agrees. They know that printers ink prevents illness, builds hospitals, controls epidem ics and reduces the death rata They know also that it corrects town and community unsanitary | conditions and relieves the public of many an ill. t SOCIETY.
