A business change of interest to Con cord people was consummated on Janu ary 7th. when the Electrik Maid Bake Shop, on West Corbin Street, was pur- , chased by Mr. E. A. Moring. of Char lotte. from Mr. Alfred Peterson, who in stalled it here about June Ist, awl hat, been operating it since that time. ’ Mr. Peterson has accepted a position with the Chicago office of the Electrik Maid people, and will take up his duties at once. The business for tin, next several months will be' under the management of Mr. H. 15. Moring, son of the owner, after which Mr. E. A. Moring will come to Concord and take active management. For the present, the bakery will be at the myne location. It is the pur pose of the new owner to make some changes in the near future, whereby the products Os the concern will be handled by local grocers in C-oncord and vicinity. The rapid growth of the business of the Electrik Maid Bake Shop has made it almost imperative to add further equip ment to the plant, and this will also be done, it is expected.

January 10th, and as the seed is very scarce farmers desiring same are advised to get their order in by the 10th. This is one of the most valuable of the summer legumes and should be sown on small grain in March, Mr. Goodman stated, and will assist in the making of more hay and eliminate in port the sowing of peas after harvest at a time when work is very rushing. The orders for sedatol (the govern ment explosive), are eoming in rather slow, Mr. Goodman stated, for the last order for the county. All farmers want ing the explosive must place their order within the next week as the supply is getting scarce and this will be the last order made this year by Mr. Goodman. Arrangements are being made to get the caps locally for the new order and those farmers who have already ordered and received emplosives can call at the office of Mr. Goodman Saturday and get their caps and fusee. The defeat of all measures making possible he use of the Bible in the public schools was recommended in a report read at the tenth triennial convention of the National Council of Jewish YVo men, at St. i-ouis, Missouri. Most women have two opinions of a secret: Either it is not worth keeping— or else it is too good to keep. - - ..A - - - '*' - ■ ss IN AND ABOUT THE CITY 1 - ■ i -■■ i. ulitl, „ , ■.-uni COLD SNAP WORTH MUCH. TO THE COTTON FARMERS Experts Estfthate Tittt MffitmK of Weevils Wen KRM hk the Cotton States Saturday and Sunday. Plumbers, coal dealers sad garage owners were not the only class of la]h orers who benefltted from the cold weath er which swept over this section of the country Saturday night and Sunday, causing water pipes to freeze and burst, coal supplies to decrease with unpleas ant rapidity and auto radiators to freeze. Claiming even greater benefit than these are the farmers who feel that millions of boll weevils were 'killed and millions more deprived of birth by the wintry weather that carried the mercury to a point not reached since 19918. Local authorities wise in the wnys of the weevil declare they are unable to place a definite estimate on the money saved by the weevils destroyed, but they estimate that millions ol dollars were saved throughout the cotton belt and that the benefits resulting from the freeze far outnumber the damages. Weather like that of Saturday nud Sunday, when the mercury itr hours flirted with the zero mark, was un doubtedly very damaging to the weevils hibernating in and near cotton fields, one cotton expert of this county pointed out, and he expressed the oninion that the freezing weather w6s worth tons of posion that would have been applied to the crop after it began growing. ‘ln order to live through the winter months,” another expert pointed out, “the hibernating weevil must eliminate a certain percentage of his body mois ture. Under favorable dry conditions the weevil is able to do this, but rains penetrate to his hiding place—under the bark of stumps, in straw aud stalks of last year’s plants and other places—and if the damp spell is followed by freezing temperature the weevil freezes and bursts like so many of the waterpipes in the cities have done.” R. G. Goodman, county farm agent for Cabarrus county, declared that while the cold snap undoubtedly killed many weevils, this fact does not mean that the weevil is necessarily wiped out. Un der ordinary weather conditions, Mr. Goodman pointer! out. only a few of the weevils which take cover in winter sur vive. but the few that do survive can multiply so rapidly that it is not im possible that the 1924 crop will be dam aged by them. The severely cold weather of 1917-18, Mr. Goodman stated, had something to do with the delay of the weevils in reaching the Piedmont section, but there is great difference between such weath er as the South experienced that winter ami the weather so far this wintr. Jf the weevils that do survive the rigors of the winter are favored with cloudy, rainy weather during the month of July, the weevil army will be as large as ever and may accomplish as much damage to the 1924 (crop as it did to the 19922 and 1923 crops. Mr. Goodman added. But every cold snap that is accompanied by temperatures nearing zero point add ' to the discomfiture of the weevil and make his presWMas let# cer tain, Mr. Goodman said; adding id'con — •'" ' ~- m . 1 » esi jjfic/um 8 I* l ll*e homes of dis-ff 4 RJB criminating men and Taw? men you will find reveal-|l jLjjrcj ed the.-if demands forlpE EM the artistic, unusual andS^B we count critical people Kg 2,.

J fHE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE elusion that without question millions of dollars had been saved to the southern , farmer by the city blasts which swept from the north Saturday and Sunday. Ift Nhrtb t'arobin* the mercury was lowest at points wjtjere no cotton is rais ed, but for the etftSgJjtate the tempera tbre wa.s unusually |£w. In this and | other cotton growing counties of the Piedmont section the mercury Saturday night and Sunday morning was only a few degrees above aero at the -higheat, and what is true of this State is true of other states which produce large cot ‘ ton crops. Even in Texas, where mil -1 lions of bales are raised each year, um usually cold weather prevailed last week, and from the I-one Stur State' to north ern Florida, then up the Atlantic sea , board and across the southeastern states the wintry winds eirried their intense chid, to pracfically every cotton state In the South. ROTARY MEETING Public Affairs Committee Offers Fine Program at Weekly Meeting of Local Club. ? The weekly meeting of the Concorl Ret ary Club was held at the Y. M. C. A.

Salisbury KaanaptolJTs Game a Rough Affair. Salisbury. Jan. 9.—1,, one of the roughest games ever- played here Kan napolis highs lost a hard fought game by the score of 24 to 23 to Salisbury. The game was rough and' tumble af fair from the start, and owing to the referee not being thoroughly familiar with the rules, continued to get rougher as the game progressed. In fact a mild form of football was played throughout. For Salisbury “Big Boy" Floyd was the high scorer, wih 10 points' to his credit Johnson the well known center, led j the attack for Kannapolis, piling up a total of 12 points.
