Horner Bros Company Handles
Them Without Profit
The county Agent asked Mr. W.
H. Hunt, president of the First Nat
ional Bank, to buy peas in quanti
ty for the farmers, and to sell them
at cost. He agreed to do this if
some one could be found to receive
these peas and distribute them to
the farmers as they wanted them
Horner Bros. Company agreed to do
this without pay or profit.
Evrybody thought peas were
scarcer than they now seem to be
They bought early especially for the
benefit that Granville county farm
ers should not be without.
. Two hundred bushels were bought
at $3.50 per bushel with freight to
be added to the cost. These were
the cheapest good peas offerd at that
time.
These peas are now offered bv
him at a loss to Mr. Hunt who shoul
ders the loss. He will sell them at
$3.25 per bushel. Inasmuch as
these peas were bought for the
farmer to get peas to sow without
paying a profit on them, even if you
can get them just as cheap else
where, it would show the spirit of
appreciation for the farmers to take
these peas at prices which compete
with others not bought for a profit.
I believe our farmers have the
spirit of appreciation, and I'm go
ing to ask them to make good my
faith in them by coming forward
and taking these peas at the lower
ed price.
We farmers may want another
favor. If no sympathy at this loss
is shown, we could hardly respect
ourselves if we should look for an
other. All business men will know
of this incident, and will shy at ven
turing to help farmers without pro
fit. Farmers, think of this, and
follow your best thoughts. . j

Such evidence is convincing.

Cow Peas
After Harvesting Grain Crops
Farmers shou!d make every prep

possible after harvesting grain crops
this year, so as to increase the fer

lands for crops to foiiow.
The Sowing of Cow Peas at

Is also to be strongly recommended.

claim that the sowing of Cow Peas
in corn increases the yield of corn,
