Should Report
All Cover Crops
Plowed Under
By E. H. BRIGHT
Farmers should report the turning
under of rye, clover or any other
cover crop to their township committeemen.
These commiteemen
have instructions concerning these
practices and will certify them to
this office. These practices should
r>p rpnorted at this time because
both producers and committeemen
will forget to report them this fallWithin
a few days producers will
receive a card and a request to fill
Dut the card and return it to this
Dffice. The signing of this card
ioes not place the producer under
any obligations. This card is a
means of finding out the producers
that will attempt to qualify for
;heir payments in 1937. The cost
af checking compliance comes out
payments that would go to the
'armer and every producer should
cooperate and reduce the cost as
much as possible.
Now is a good time to start qualfy
for your payments. You should
wait until the fall to sow the rejuired
crops. The acreage that
fou should have is given on the
;orm that carries your base acreage.
Producers that are able to sow a
greater acreage than is shown on
;he form should come to the office
ind request a raise in acreage.
Your soil building allowance in
L937 will be $10.00 or the figure
ihown if the soil building acreage
s over 10 acres- We have raised
;he soil conserving base for several
ind will be glad to raise it for all
Droducers that are able to plant a
greater acreage, but the acreage
should not be raised if the producer
s not sure he will be able to sow
;he crops. A penalty of $3.00 per
icre will be charged for the acres
;he producer fails to plant.

Little Known Here ^
About Hospital At
Panacea Springs $<
t<
Little is known here of the move- n
ment which begun in Halifax and g]
Warren counties recently to turn h
Panacea Springs into a veteran's
hospital, but those who have read $j
press accounts to the effect that f<
such efforts are being made have ij
expressed themselves as being willing
to get behind the project. 01
Although it has been rumored v<
here that Halifax county was will- w
ing to put up as much as $5,000 to c<
have the hospital located in this
section provided Warren county p;
would match this sum, no request e
for financial backing has been made d:
to the Board of County Commis- r<
sioners.
When questioned in regard to the fc
matter this week, William H- Bur- w
roughs, chairman of the county d:
board, stated that he had received ai
no information in regard to the pro- w
ject, nor had the board been called st
upon for either financial or moral
backing. cl
Nor has the Warrenton Lions w
Club been called upon to lend its ji
support to the movement, although h
it has been endorsed by the Littleton
Lions Club which has signified ni
that it plans to ask support from a
other civic organizations in this pi
section of the state.

COUNTIES SEEK SITE FOR m
PROPOSED INSTITUTION fl
Weldon, May 9.?A movement was u;
started yesterday in Halifax and
Warren counties to have the new tl
veterans hospital, slated for Eastern la
North Carolina, located at Panacea d<
Springs near Littleton and on the p<
border line of the two counties. w
Panacea Springs for years was a
noted health resort and even now F
the health giving waters from its
springs are hauled away every day
by people from all over the section H
who have felt the results of its heal- I bi
ing influence. Folks who were reg- tl
ular visitors to this health resort of M
many years ago still write of their tl
cures after drinking the water. si
The Springs are located about h
three miles south of Littleton with di
part of the property lying in War- P
ren and part in Halifax counties, p
There is an old hotel there with ap- T
proximately 70 rooms, which could T
be renovated. In the tract there d;
are between 100 and 150 acres which ai
stand at a high altitude and slope M
to a lake covering about eight acres. K
According to report the owners of si
the property, the heirs of the Bras- ai
well and Eugene Johnston estates, J<
have been contacted and are reas- M
[onable as to price- ai
j Several surrounding counties have S
been asked to lend their aid in get- E
ting the hospital for Panacea. H

Attempts To Cash
Check Forged On
Littleton Man
A check flasher narrowly missed
capture here on Tuesday afternoon
when he attempted at two business
houses to draw funds on a check
n/ViinVi l-io cfotpri wfls criven to him
by Joe Wollett of Littleton for sawmill
labor but which was signed Joe
Wallis. The incorrect spelling of
the name may have been responsible
for him not getting the moneyThe
check, in the sum of $16-80,
was presented at the Home Furniture
and Supply Co. by an unknown
negro who expressed his desire to
make a purchase and receive the
change. Raymond Modlin, the manager,
is stated to have thought he
recognized the negro as a man who
gave him a bad check under similar
circumstances two years ago. His
suspicion aroused ,he asked on
whom the check was drawn. Informed
that it bore the signature of
Joe Wollett, he looked at it, saw
that the name was mis-spelled, and
refused to enter into the transaction.
The negro left the store and Mr.
Modlin notified the sheriff's office
that efforts were being made to
cash a forged check here. The other
officers being out at the time, Miss
Gayle Tarwater, officer worker and
i deputy sheriff, responded to the
alarm and ran across the negro In
the A. & P. Store in time to warn
employees there not to cash the
check. The swindler made a rapid
exit. He was pointed out by the
deputy sheriff to Police Chief Jack
Scott as he started down the street
towards Boyd-Boyce Motor Company
but he scurried behind the
buiiding before he could be overtaken
by the policeman and has
not been seen here since.
Although the negro's name is not
mown here, he is identified as the
same man who has cashed a number
of bogus checks in this county
during the past year or so. He is
said to have forged the name of
the Raleigh Granite Co. of Graystone
on a check which he succeded
M 'htt'VIng Mabry's store at Ridgeway
cash for him several months
ago; to have at one time given N.
P. Marks a bad check, and to have
forged the name of Albert Bugg to
a check which was used in a neighboring
town to pay the fine of a
somrade of his who was being held
in jail.

SUPERIOR COURT
OPENS MONDAY
Judge Henry A. Grady To
Preside Over Heavy Criminal
Docket Here
TO TRY MURDER CASE
Judge Henry A. Grady is to face
a docket somewhat heavier than
usual when he comes to Warrenton
on Monday morning of next week
to preside over the May term of
Warren county Superior court.
There are nearly twenty cases booked
for trial at this time them is one
charge of murder and another of
manslaughter.
The murder charge is against Ted
Terrell, young white man of north
Henderson who is alleged to have
shot and killed his brother-in-law,
Andrew Knight, also young man of
11U11/I1 IlClXUClOUiii nv iionvuii \mmu~
eye) Whit's service station between
Norlina and Ridgeway early in
March after the two men had met
there and engaged in a quarrel.
The manslaughter charge is booked
against Dan House, young white
man of Littleton, who was driving
for Mrs. Dorman Taylor of Littleton
on the night of January 23
when her car struck an ox cart and
brought about the death of Bud
Kearney, negro, and injuries to his
wife, Blanch Kearney, who was on
the cart with him when the accident
occurred between Warrenton
and Macon.
The re-trial of the Winkler
brothers will probably consume a
large portion of this term of courtJ.
M. and D. M. Winkler of Mecklenburg
county, Va., have been in
jail here for little over a year
charged with breaking into the
Swan Sandwich Shop and Beer
Garden at Norlina and robbing the
place of several hundred dollars
worth of property after disarming
the night clerk, Clyde Jeff Coats.
The case has been tried before but
an appeal was noted by defense attorneys
and a new trial was granted.
While it is not definitely known,
doubt was expressed here this week
over the trial at this term of Dan
Hill Weldon and Charles Hunt, two
Vance county men, wno are cnarged
with forging checks on the Citizens
Bank here. It was said that
arrangements had been made to
have this case continued; however,
witnesses have been notified to appear
here.
The bank case remains on the
docket but what action Solicitor
Burgwyn will take in regard to this
case since C. N. Williams Jr. of
Richmond, one of the defendants,
cannot be brought here by law to
face trial, is a matter of speculation.
Witnesess in the case have not been
summoned to appear here and this
is taken to mean that the other
defendants will not be tried at this
term.
Stealing is the chief cause for the
criminal docket being heavier than
usual. Twelve defendants are booked
for trial on charges of larceny,
or breaking, entering and receiving.
