The house was filled with men, women and child ren. This was the first agricultural meeting held at this place and it was gratifying to. see such a fine manifes tation of community spirit. While the people were gathering, several nice selections were played on a Victrola. This was enjoyed by all and especially by the little boys and girls. . The meeting was opened by singing some agricultural songs followed bv a contest in singing the men and boys vs the women and girls.' The judge de cided in favor of the later. A talk was made by Mr, W. L. Smarr in which he stresses some of the im portant factors in profitable fanning anong them being well prepared seed bed; seeds of the bast variety intelli gently selected and carefully stored; giving the rows and the plants in cultivated crops the distance suited to the plant, the soil and the climate; tenBivelllingniuringthe growing period of the crops; securing a high content of humus (decayed vegetable matter) in the soil; the carrying out of a systematic crop rotation with .v winter ;" cover crop; accomplishing more work in a day by using more horse power and better implements; the producing of all the food required for the family and the animals on the farm; and the keeping of an account of each farm product in order to know from which the gain or loss arises. Mrs. Winn gave a demonstration in cooking by the use of the Fireless Cooker. Apparently there were a few doubting Thomas s present and noth ing but a demonstration of the fact could convince them that one could cook with a fireless contrivance. After seeing the demonstration and tasting of the delicious chicken all were con vinced . A great many expressed themselves as desirous of wanting to make a fireless cooker for themselves realizing the saving of time, labor and stove wood, and the obtaining of better food. Mr. C. C. Hauss made a talk which was enjoved bv all present. . He dis cussed the building of the farm and the home. He said that farmers were working too much poor land and were not farming so that they could make their land rich. Mr. Hausi is a great believer in Red and Alsike clover and pleaded with the farmers to grow clover and improve their soil, to im prove their soil to; where it would make a bale of cotton, and from SO to 60 bushels of com per acre. The women expressed themselves as being interested in canning and i special demonstration was . ar ranged for Wednesday July 14th at 2 p. m. at the school house. . The men are interested in purchas ing a car load of lime and the plant ing of clover and pasture grasses. A meeting will be held at an early date to see about the lime at which time an illustrated lecture will be given by the County Agents. Many of those present expressed themselves as wanting to organize communtiy club and to have the boys and girls enrolled in the Agricultural Clubs. Watch Boyles Grow!

Labor is not a commodity; it is human. Those who labor have rights and the national security and safety depend upon a just and recognition of those rights and the conservation of the strength of the workers and their families in the interest of sound hearted and sound headed Men,women and children. Laws regulating hours of labor and conditions under which labor is performed, when -passed m recognition of the conditions under which life must be lived to attain the highest development and happiness, are just assertion of the national in terest in the welfare of the people. At the same time the nation de pends upon the production of labor, a cessation of production means loss and, if long continued , disaster A whole people, therefore, have a right to insist that justice shall be done to those who work and in turn that those whose labor creates the necessities upon which the life of the nation de pends must recognize the reciprocal obligation between the worker and LINCOLNTON DIVIDES WITHJOCKINGHAM LINCOLNTON TAKES THE FIRST ROCKINGHAM THE SECOND TuesdaVs Game.
