1926 1921-25 AV. IJOUS won’t have to go on a reduc *** ing diet. They will have plenty of corn to eat, in spite of a prospec tive short crop, which will amount to about 2,098,000,000 bushels this year, according to the Sears-Roebuck Agri cultural Foundation. Last year the crop was 2,905,000,000 bushels, consid erably larger than the five-year aver age crop of 2,849,600,000 bushels. This year’s crop was grown on 101. 074,000 acres and is rated to yield 26.7 bushels per acre. More than 80 per cent of the corn crop Is fed to liva stock, and hogs consume more i than 40 per cent of the crop. This | year hogs have been scarce and have not eaten as much from last year’s crop as normally. The corn year be gins November 1. A year ago the carry-over from 1924 was only 61,000, 000 bushels, but because of the short age of hogs and other live stock the carry-over on November 1 from the 1925 crop will be more than 500,000. 000 bushels. This, with the present crop, will he ample to meet all needs, the Foundation estimates, so the hogs and other live stock will not have to go hungry. Growers in western North Caro lina will Harvest a fine crop of apples this fall. It's a good time for folks in the piedmont and coastal sections of the State to learn the quality of this home grown product. A group of farmers in Frank lin county will net $10 per thous and feet for pine timber because of working together in selling their product. BEEF WORK BEGUN IN EASTERN CAROLINA Rafeigh, Oct. 20.—Now that the cattle tick has finally been eradi cated from all sections of eastern North Carolina, plans are being made by the North Carolina Ex periment Station to begin some work with beef cattle in this ter ritory. The first tests will be made at the Blackland Branch Station at Wenona in Washington County. “The cattle tick quarantine was finally lifted from the entire State on December 1, 1925, almost exactly 20 years after the first work in eradicating the tick was begun,” says Prof. R. S. Curtis of the animal husbandry depart ment at State College. “Antici-. pating this last step in tick era dication, we worked out definitely the original plansf se>t on foot some years ago. Recently we bought 20 native cows from Hol ' ly Ridge which- will be wintered j on the reed lands and native | grasses of the We non a farm. ! Eighty acres have been set aside j for this purpose. This land has been fenced and water put in. We are now 'preparing to build a ■ barn to care for the cattle dur-1 • ing winter.” j Prof. Curtis states that the cows will be bred to a pure bred Hereford bull and a complete re cord kept of any improvement made through the successive steps of selection and breeding. Photographs will be made of all the original animals and these records will be continued along „with an economic study of the cost of producing beef cattle und er _Eastern Carolina conditions. Pasture plots are also being seeded at Wenona this fall to de termine the best grasses adapted to the blacklands. The native pastures will be supplemented in part with tame grasses after the determinations have been made. Prof. Curtis states that some of the reed lands will be retained to make an economic stpdy of these for cattle growing. Prof. Curtis believes that East ern Carolina may in time become a cattle producing section. There is much interest in this work now and when more has been learned about the pasture grasses, the in dustry will likely develop in a satisfactory way. * -± COOLIDGE ASKS PEOPLE TO VOTE President Gjreets Oratorical Con test Delegates Proper Use of Franchise Not So Much Matter of Head as of Heart Washington, Oct. 15.—An ap peal for all citizens tos exercise the franchiserwas made by Presi dent Coolidge tonight in extend ing greetings to the members of the first international oratorical contest in Washington auditor ium. “Whenever a choice is to be made in electing a public officer," the President asserted, “all those THE GREAT MAJESTIC During Demons tration of The Great Majestic Range Wells Furniture Company Offer FREE Kitchen Ware Set By special arrangment with the Majestic Mfg.

REMEMBER—IT’s NEXT WEEK ONLY, OCT. 25 to 30 AT WELLS FURNITURE COMPANY, YADKINVILLE, N. C. who can qualify are under the most solemn and binding obliga ti00 to register their decision at the ballot box. To fail in that is to be disloyal to our whole system of self-government. On our theory, that the people are sovereign to neglect to vote is to abdicate. “We do not present to rely for correct decisions on the judg ment of the selfish and interested few, but rather on the patriotic choice of the great body of can did and independent citizens. We rely on the expression of the im partial voters. A true election represents the untammelled ex pression of their will. It is their voice that speaks with divine au thority." In outlining the attributes of good citizenship, Mr. Coolidge placed with the appreciation of the responsibility of voting, re spect for American institutions of government, and obedience to the law. All these attributes, he asserted, would in his opinion, “not be found except among a re ligious people.” The oratorical contest he com mended as a movement which, would interest young people “in a study of the science of govern ment, esecially as exemplified in the institutions of their own country.” In the United States, hseJ con tinued, it would, it was hbped, lead to a broader knowledge of fundamental principles of gov-' ernment, “especially as exempli fied in the American constitu tion.” Candid study in the, con structive and affirmative side, after a period of adverse criticism of political institutions with its effect felt especially by new im migrant elements of the papula tion, he asserted, would reveal that “our government is simply what the people through their duly constituted procedure sanc | tion, ordain and establish.” “While each of our citizens ought to have sufficient faith and knowledge to reinforce their be lief in America,” he continued, “after all, good citizenship is not so much a matter pf information l as of disposition, not so much [ of the head as of the heart, not so much dependent upon know ledge as upon sentiment. Those who want to do right' have little difficulty in finding out the right, i “Observance of the law' is the very essence of self-government. It is the main source of certainty in all social relationships.. With out it all those elements would be lacking on which we are de pendent for economic structure. The protection of property, the security of the person, wmuld b^ gone. The entire basis for cre dit wrould be lacking. No stand ard of value for property could exist. Justice would vanish. The whole foundation of civilization w'ould crumple. The protection of the weak would disappear. The sole reliance would be force. Might alone would rule. “It is to rescue the people from these conditions that constitu tions are adopted and statues en acted. But all these will be of little avail unless there is fester ed and nourished in the minds of our citizens a rugged respect for law' and obedience to its de crees.” ************ * CRUSHED BARLEY MALT * * One Hundred Pounds $3.50 * * Hop Flavored Malt syrup— * * $5.75 per dozen cans. # * AMERICAN MALT CO. * * Albemarle, Nofrth Carolina. * * 6 17 20t. * SALE OF LAND UNDER DEE1> OF TRUST By virtue of the power contain ed in a certain Deed of Trust exe cuted by Letcher Cockerham, on the 4th day of April, 1921, to se cure a note of even date there with, said deed of trust being re corded in Book 28, Page 45, Re cord of Mortgages for Yadkin county, and default having Seen~ made in the payment of note, I will offer for sale to the highest bidder for cash, in front of the post office in the town of Jones ville, N.
