PROSPECT.
• A new game warden for
Stokes county will possibly be
appointed this week to succee
T. L. Booth, the pressnt warden,
who has resigned to take effect
March 21.
The information was gained
from W. C. Lisk, district game
warden, who spent Tuesday night
here. Mr. Lisk would not posi
tively say wbom the next warden
will be, but it is pretty well un|
derstood that Charley Martin i
will be Booth's successor. There
\were several applications for the
position, but Martin's recom
mendations were unusually
strong, and it is conceded that
he will be appointed by the
State.
In case of Martin's appoint
ment he will remove at once
with his family to the quartern
now occupied by Booth, who wi
returti to Danbury, hia forme
home.
District Game Protector Lisk
says that an effort will be mad
to enlist the assistance of the
federal government in great
improving, enlarging and re
plenishing the State's game in
terests on the Stokes reserve,
that more pens will probably b-.
built and that these will b'
stocked with game.
Mr. Lisk is in charge of 21
counties of the State, and he in
forms the Reporter that th
game interests of his district are
in the best shape now for years

HIGHWAY PATROL
CRACKING DOWN
INTENSIVE DRIVE TO FOL
LOW ALREADY STIFF AC
TION OF THE MOTORCYCLE
SQUAD DRIVERS LICENSE
L\W TO BE ENFORCED,
STARTING NEXT MONDAY
BE ON YOUR GUARD.
I
Stokes citizens who go down
!
I the road in their automobiles
can testify that the State high
way patrolmen are already on
their job.
But the news comes from
Raleigh today that next Monday
!an intensive drive will begin to
i enforce the drivers license lav.
and other requirements.
Several Stokes citizens, some
of them prominent, have recent
ly been caught "napping" by the
gray-clad guys who ride motor
cycles and won't listen to ex
cuses.
And listen here: Beginnin
March 16 any person applying
for operator's or chauffeur's
license for the first time will be
required to demonstrate his
ability to operate a vehicle as
well as a knowledge of rules of
the road. -
The highway safety division
reported today licenses of 1,847
persons had been revoked, whi'
376 applications have been
• honied due to incompetency of
the applicants to operate
vehicles.
The governor of North Caro
lina has no power to restore th
revoked license of a convicted
automobile driver, Edwin M. Gill,
commissioner of paroles, an
nounced today following the re
ceipt of a ruling from Attorney
General A. A. F. Seawell.
Gill said he had a bulky file
of applications from drivers
whose licenses had been revoked
| asking that the permits be res
tored as a measure of executive
clemency, but that these were
being denied b> Governor Eh
! ringhaus under the Seawell rul
i
ing.
The attorney general explain
ed while the constitution gives th.
governor the power to pardon
criminals, commute sentences
and to remove penalties which
have been imposed incidental to
the conviction of crime, the re
vocation of a license is not a
penalty, but is entirely dis
connected with any punishment
because of the crime for whic
he is convicted. The revocation,
he said, is an exercise of the
police power of the state and, l3
such, is not subject to interven
tion by the governor.

Making Money
On Chickens
Very few people are ablc\,' to
make any money on chickens.
The business is interesting, al
most fascinating, with expense
eating up all the profits.
But H. P. Loft is, superinten
dent of the Stokes County Home,
knows how and does it. Mr. Lof
lis says lie can clear SI,OOO o.i
one thousand liens and buy ti.
feed. Mr. Loftis this week udde
—tiny biddies to his flock o'
poultry at the Home. Th.
young chickens are placed in a
warm house just like a tobacco
curing barn with furnace keep
ing a slow, warm fire. When six
weeks old, they are tui|.ied out
to scratch. Later they become
money-making hens all except
the roosters, which are cullei
out. At present Mr. Loftis keeps
about 100 hens which are pro
ducing 75 per cent, "lay" every
day. He keeps a hen only a year
earning power is spent,
after that it is discarded, as it- 1

Raising chickens is a charm |
ing vocation—when you know
how.

line up with Hitler. It looks'

MK.VIS TO COME I ROM

EiIIiiNGIIACS TO CAM, EX
TRA SESSION.
JuiL't 1 by the comments licaril
acre and there, the new farm
program which forms t!i«* new
AAA will tiil a popular il- mand
here wlun it is formerly present
ed within the next week or ten
dayy. Of course, the only in
formation as to the nature and
working of this plan so far
available is that secured from
the daily press reports. But local
farmers who have kept up with
these have been free in express
ing themselves as favorably un
impressed in so far as their in
formation goes.
| According to the available in
formation, this plan is a purely
j voluntary proposition in so far
l as the Federal government is
i concerned. Congress has appro
priated approximately one-half
a billion dollars which is to be
used in making benefit payments
'to farmers who reduce their
acreage in base crops such as
tobacco, cotton, peanuts, etc.,
and in making payments to
those who cooperate in planting
a portion of their land to soil
conservation crops, such as
clovers, vetch, grasses, cowpeas,
soybeans, etc.
Local tobacco growers, it is
contemplated, will receive a
quarter of a million or more
dollars for their cooperation un
' der this plan. It may be that a
larger portion of this appropria
tion will come to this county.
But it is a conservative estimate
that Stokes farmers will receive
between two-hundred sjvonty
, five and three-hundred and
fifty thousand dollars per year
} | under the new plan.
As stated above this is a
, voluntary proposition. Farmers
will be given the opportunity to
sign app ications instead of con
tracts tc show their willingness
to cooperate in the plan. Any
enforcements or penalties for
not cooperating will be had only
r through state legislation. If any
, j law is passed to enforce crop
control on the part of those who
! do not voluntarily back the plan,
jit must needs come from state
, pacts to be enacted by the
j legislatures in the states in
| which the crop is grown. There
io much local interest favoring a
I special session of the legislature
jto enact these laws in time
