The compliments are in dif ferent ways. Some compliment us «>n the variety of news matters; others, on the typographical appear ance of the paper and its make up; but one compliment last week was a ■direct offer for services for the head of this paper. We were offered a Maiary >f 52.350.00 for 52 weeks—one year—for work of 44 hours per week, .u total of 2.208 hours for a year’s work, at 82,350,00, making over SI.OO ;per hour for our service. This amounts to more than all the Zebu lon advertisements we have been ruining each week. We refused the suffer and are going to stay here luitl publish the Record for the bene fit of our patrons, and we hope they will appreciate our services as others do. A MISTAKEN IDEA We receive many communications from people each week asking us to print same but none of these ever .bear the writer’s signature. Many of these communications are of a personal nature and refer to persons d'rerc giving names. Some people think that a newspaper is run for the purpose of playing pranks or handing out personal joke" on indi viduals. A newspaper is not printed for such purposes. A newspaper’s prime purpose is to print the legitimate news gathered from all four sections —for the educational eniightment of its ic. iers. A newspaper is not printed to take the side of a person who has been done an injustice by another party, and to “literally roost’’ the party for his conduct. Th's ii a personal matter and the pa* ties concerned cannot air the mat ter through these columns. I,:, week we were approached by .■several parties about a certain arti cle that they said appeared in this paper. After careful search wc railed to find any such article in the IZebu’on Record. We gave a copy of last week’s paper and week before 1; st to a party and asked them to look up the article and show it to ns. We have not heard anything from the party as to the article. How ever, late last Saturday even ing throe young boys came to our ♦iffice and said that a lawyer had k»een consulted about a certain arti cle that appeared in thh paper and we might expect to be arrested for publishing the news item. Our re ply was “all right, brother go to it.” If parties in the future will inves tigate the news items in the paper their own self and find out the frets as to whether such items are actual ly in print before they begin to cir culate such news stories, they will find they w 11 save themselves much worry and the Editor will not have to put in any extra time looking over the paper to find a certain article. We are responsible for all news matter from the first page to the eighth page in the paper. We are here to print the news and when a ct. ta n subji et is handed around from one mouth to another and made a talk around the town we can’t see where the objection would be to print th" matter if not of a slanderous nature—nothing more than a new? item, and also made a talk by some people of the town. The news item re fer ed to above did not appear in the Record last week. REVIVAL SERVICES The rerival services at the First B* 3 >tist church is well attended this week. Rev. Walter Johnson is doing seme good work here in Zebulon. He is a strong and forcible preacher, and is an earnest worker for the Lord. Two sermons has been preached da ly this week, at 10 a. rn. and 7:30 p in., with good attendance at both services. COTTON GRADED AND STAPLED BY DIVISION OF MARKETS The State Division of Markets is interested in seeing that every cotton growing farmer gets the very top price for his cotton. The best way to sell anything where there are so many different grades and staples, each one selling at a different price, i. is, therefore, easy for some cotton . buyers to under-grade the farmers’ c itton and buy it for much less than :t ,s really worth. It is not known dial this is being practiced on any of the local markets of the State, but, even if it is not, it is a great advantage to the farmer to know just what he is selling. 3 he Division of Markets will send to any farmer tags and supplies with ; which to send samples of cotton to this office to be graded and stapled. Also, this Division will furnish any market information regarding cotton that is desired. Address James I. Johnson, State Grader, Box 285, Raleigh, N. C. MA RK ETING SC l PPERN ONGS Perhaps the Seuppernong is the most distinctive fruit of the Caro | linas, heralded in song and story. .Since Prohibition came into vogue he commercial possibilities of the icuppernong have been greatly re iuic-d. It is believed that this fruit ran be marketed to advantage for legitimate purpose? and with this dea in view, Mr. Albert E. Mercker, Specialist in Fruits and Vegetables • f the State Division of Markets, will assist growers in the marketing of I this product. Two grades will be recognized, (1) hand picked; and (2) those shaken from the vines. Those |to be used for grape juice can be ( packed in bushel baskets; the ones j that are to be retailed for eating purposes should be shipped in berry ! cups. This is an experiment to as •ertain just what can be done with his l'ruit through local shipments. BURSTING OF CABBAGE The bursting of growing cabbage may be prevented very easily by se lecting the heads which show signs of bursting and starting the roots by .lulling, or cutting off some of the octs with a hoe. The pulling pro ;ess is preferably. Putting both hands under the head, pull until many of the roots are loosened and he plant is pushed over to one side, this treatment effectually stops the bursting, and not only that, but the cabbage continues to grow lustily, ind I have the gratification of see ng the heads thus treated grow to double the former size and weight, I and all due to this starting the roots, which checked the growth enough to ;o prevent bursting, but did not hin der further development. There is no excuse for allowing cabbage to burst when so effectual menus are it hand to prevent it.—F. A. M. Union Hope News A large crowd attended our Sun . day school Sunday.

T. SHEA RON. By T. O. MOSES, A tty. Sept. 17-4 t i To Loan on Wake, Johnson, Nash and Franklin County Farms Is the next payment on your land due or fast approaching? Are you in danger of losing all you have on account of inability to pay your obligations? Are you paying art excessive rate on your farm loans? Do you wish to make some improvement on your farm and need the money to do it with? Would you like to have money to pay cash for your Guano next spring? The Zebulon unit of the North Carolina Joint Stock Land Bank of Durham, N. C. as now organized has immediately available for loans on farm lands in the above named counties $100,000.00. Tills is a local organization in charge of local men operating through the North Carolina Joint Stock Land Bank. An appraiser has been appointed for our ter ritory and promptness in handling loans can be expected. Loans can be secured on farm lands whether or not the owner resides on the farm or is an actual farmer. Applications will be ac cepted for amounts of SSOO to SIO,OOO, payable on the Government amortization plan at 6 per cent interest which means that the borrower will pay $35.00 semi-annually on the SIOOO which is 6 per cent interest and 1 per cent of the principal. This retires the loan in about thirty three years. The purpose and desires of the organizers of this hank are to eliminate the delays and dis satisfaction encountered in procuring a loan on farm land and to eliminate the red tape and re duce the expenses of the loan to the borrower. AH loans are made under the supervision of the local board of directors of THE ZEBULON BANKING & TRUST COMPANY, under the di rection of which the local unit is operated, and all details concerning these loans may be secured by seeing any officer of THE ZEBULON BANK ING & TRUST CO., Zebulon, N. C. You will be dealing with local people, your land will be appraised by a local committee, and we believe we can give the farmers of this sec tion great assistance where it is needed.
