A resort to the law * * ? should only he made aiiei all peaceful means of adjusting a difficulty have failed. There are several things going on at Warrenton thai border on a nuisance, due in large measure, we believe, to thoughtlessness on the part of some of our citizens. Oi\e to which we particularly call attention is the delivery of freight from the front street. It is a common sight to see traffic blocked here by a huge truck unloading produce in front of some local store. They jut out intc the streets so far that it is impossible for cars to pass and jam is the result. There are alleys running behind these stores and freight could be delivered + V.C cUIIiUSU ctO caoujt 11 uia miv. rear. It would be greatly appreciated by our citizens and we think it would be good ?}? business on the part of the truck owners. Certainly il does not make one feel more kindly toward a wholesale] to have one's path unneces sarily blocked by a huge truck. We ask the co-opera tion of the truck owners ir abating this practice. Another thing that doe; much to hinder the smooti flow of traffic here is double parking by housewives Often a jam occurs because some woman, not finding i vacant parking space ir front of her favorite store leaves her car in the middle of the street with the engine yurniinff while she runs in t< 1 o shop. We know that the} think they will be gone onl} a minute, but often the stor< is crowded and they fine difficulty in being waitec upon. As a result it some times happens that the ca stands in the middle of th< : ) street for ten or fifteen min utes while impatient motor ists line up behind with toot ing horns.

North Carolina," says L. I. Case, beef cattle research worker for the ; North Carolina Experiment Station. ( "In addition there are some 10 or 12 other cars shipped about which I have not had accurate informa- ' tion. Of the 29 moved, however, ' four contained animals to he used for slaughter. Eight contained cattle to be wintered in the east and returned to the mountains next Spring. Better than this, seventeen of the cars contained heifers and young cows to be used for breeding purposes in building up a new beef cattle industry in eastern Carolina. In the shipments were some 12 or 15 pure bred beef bulls." Mr. Case is of tne oprnion that this movement of beef cattle into eastern Carolina will have lasting ' benefit. It is well known, he says, that legume hays and other forage crops can be more economically produced In the east than anywhere else. The Winters are open and much of the cattle may be maintained on pasture without additional feeding except possibly in January and February. Then, too, the coming of these herds on eastern Carolina farms will stimulate Interest In livestock growing in that section and thus follow out the plans for a live-at-home type of balanced farming. C. G. Filler, livestock marketing agent for the State Division of Markets, reports that some 200 ear loads of cattle were listed early in the season for possible shipment out of the mountains. Many of these went to South Carolina and Geor gla. In this way the mountain growers disposed of some of their ordinary animals leaving the herds to be developed from the best beef stock in the future. Renew Your Subscription.
