CLAIMS EASTERN OASOUNA NEW BAX&Y OOUHKRYj Raleigh, N. C, Jan. 24r-Beeiuse of the ease with wWeh legume hays may be grown and harvested in eastern Carolina, this section is destined to become a great dairy country. - "When the folks of this section tire of the damage done to them by the boll weevil and the low prices for tobacco and become reconciled to injuring cows, eastern Carolina will become a great dairy section," says John A. Arey, dairy extension specialist at State Colleg?. "Because of the ease with which legume hays may be grown, it should be possible to produce cream more economically here than in the piedmont or western " part of the State. In the mountains, of course, there is mucfi natural pas ture and excellent climate conditions which makes the section unrivalled for milk and cream production but the ease with which crops may be produced in eastern Carolina, will inakA this a place where dairy pro ducts may be ?produced more econo mically." Mr. Arey states that eastern Car olina is already preparing for the dairy cow. There has been an in crease in the land devoted to pas ture; more winter legume afops, are being planted; there is an abundance of summer legumes such as the soy bean and pure bred cows are being purchased by the carlot. Only recent ly 30 head of high grade Guernsey heifers were bought by farmers of Bladen County as a start in the pro duction of cream. During the past two years, many pure bred bulls and cows have been brought in as foun dation stock for future herds. Mr. Arey believes that a good mar ket exists for all cream that can be produced. There is also a good mar ket for surplus whole milk because much of this food is now being ship ped into the territory from outside sources. He finds that ?he farmers Pender are now supplying much of the milk used in Wilmington. The Benson Creamery has established cream routes irf the surrounding ter ritory and needs much more cream than it is now getting. STATE BANES SEVENTH IN VALUE OF -CROPS Raleigh, N. C, Jan. 24 ? Farmed of North Carolina produced during the year 1927, farm crops to the val ue of $361,605,000 and placed the State in seventh position among the other states of the Union. "This shows that the men who till the soil in North Carolina are as ef ficient -as those of any other section of the United States," says Dean I. O. Schaub of State College, who made the figures available from reports published by the United States De partment of Agriculture. "North Carolina is exceeded by Texas, Iowa, California, Illinois, Nebraska and Kansas in the order named. When we consider the 22 most important crops, this State ranks si?th among the other states. These values are figured from the prices paid farmers for their produce as of December first last yea^." Mr. Schaub states that North Car olina has the same rank this year as at the close of 1926 though the total value of the crqps produced was higher than for 1926. ,The increase is about forty one million dollars and was largely due to the increased price of cotton and the increased acreage to tobacco. The average yields were also bet ter last year, finds Mr. Schaub. In fact acre yields for all crops were about four percent above the average for the past ten years. Corn yields were increased nearly one bushel per acre in 1927 on the 2^52,000 acres planted. There was an increase of three bushels with soybeans; eight bushels with Irish potatoes; twenty four bushels with sweet potatoes; a substantial increase, in the yield of hay per acre and 36 pounds increase in the average yield of tobacoo. The acre yields for cotton and peanuts were less than those for last year, .Ob the whole, farmers of NorlE Carolina mule good progress in effi cient crop production and also turned their attention to livestock with ex cellent results. At a recent rooster exchange day ^rid in For?yth county 99 exchanges ?%nd sales were made by the farmers ?. attending.. l-i i ? 1 3 m: i. ? . 7/ fir *?

The * Stone Mountain Confederate Memorial, through its Children 'a Founders Roll and its' Qolden Book of Memory for the enrollment of living Confederate Veterans offer to the South a great opportunity to in scribe the names of the veterans of the sixties op an imperishable "mus ter-roll of glory." Will you join in memorializing the South 's grey heroes f Will you mulr? it possible for every living soldier of the sixties to own the gold medal which means that his name is written in the South 's great Book of Memoiy means that his name is written in the South 's great Book of Memory f More than fifty years ago, the remnant of Lee's army stood with him at Appomattox. Wearied with the stress of war, heart-broken with realization of the futility of their sac rifices, they watched with tear filled eyes, as their leader, stern, sad eyed but proudly humble tendered his sword in the final gesture of defeat. ' Gaunt, war-scarred, clothed in the tattered garments of a needy cause they wended their way homeward a giin. Their battleflags, shell torn and grimed, were furled at Lee's command; but they brought beck with them the banners of their courage, the standards of their honor, unsul lied by th/e stains of war. Wearing the hero-look of those who have faced death for honor's sake, they enlisted anew in the service of the South. Patriots in war, patriots in peace, they salvaged the hopes and the heri tage of a people, j / 1 These of whom I speak were our own men, our own patriots, our own heroes. Shall we foiget what they have <|one for usf Shall we permit their names to fade away into the oblivion of the years t ' Or shall we set their names whero they will shine forever in the light of fame f Time moves on. Only a few of them are left. The hero look upon their faces has yielded to the touch of age/ Wrinkles crowd their cheeks; their eyes are dim and blurred; tleir shoulders stooped and feeble. Already death's shadow darkens across the horizon of their live. Soon the last gray soldier will have vanished in the mists that rise beyond the con fines of Eternity. Too late then to let them know how much we loved them. Too late then to give happi ness to their old, hearts. Too late then to see them thrill once more at the sight of the South 's gold token horizon of their lives. Soon the last] them know that the South has not forgotten them and the cause for which they fought. Enroll one or more veterans in the flolden Book of Memory. Send in your contribution of five dollars or more now. If everyone will aid 'in this way; every name can be enrolled. Will you helpf .
