Rutland Herald.
A true nary from the border:
Rum-runner approaches a farmer
and offermjhim SSO for the tiae ot his
barn for doe day.
•‘What do yon want k for?" demands
the farmer.
“Well, - I'm bringing a carload of
booze through tomorrow night, and I
want to lay up during the day."
“AH right,” says the farmer, who
watches the rum-runner out of sight and
promptly notifies the federal agentß in
Newport.
The officers watch the barn all mght,
all the next day, and all the next night.
Nothing doing, so they gave it -up and ;
went home.
A few days later the rurti-runnel re
appears add offers the farmer his SSO.
“But, yhu didn’t use my barn," stut
tered the fprtn.

1,000 EGGS IN EVERY HEN
“The greet trouble' with the poultry
4>usin««s .has always been that the lay
ing life of a hen was too short,” says
Henry Trafford, international poultry
expert and breeder, for nearly eighteen
years editor of Poultry Success.
The average '/pullet lays 150 eggs. If
kept the second years, she may lay 100
more. Then she goes to market. Yet,
it has been scientifically established that
every pullet is bcrn or hatched with over
one thousand minute egg germs in her .

VOTE FOR PORT TERMINALS.
Port Terminals and Water Transpor
ts non is a new question pn :\orth Caro
lina and because it is. new some people
are honestly in doubt about it. The
only state with an ocean or mse front
and without port, terminals is North
Carolina. Every other state with a
chance at water-rate competition has
one or more public port, terminals opens
on an equal feeting 2o the commerce of
all the world—had To have .-noli ter
minals to control rail rates. And no
body in these states is iij doubt nbftut
the wisdom of such enterprises.
There are sixty-eight public port ter
minals in ‘ thirty-one states, ail of them
established on the basis of public bond
issues. All are self-financing wild self
supporting. seme are also paying in
terest and sinking I .fund charges, and
ethers are earning enough in harbor
fees to pay for expansion asvport traffic
increases. The older the public port is
the better chance it lias to pay its qwti
way and to pay off the bonds that built
it.
Our state highway system is already
on a se'.fefinancing basis aid nobody is
bothering about our highway bonds. A
state water transportation system can
be put on the same self-supporting basis.
If not. then we are stupider than tbo
people of thirty-one other states. Xn#tli

KNITTING MILL. INDUSTRY
IS STEADILY ADVANCING
When the Cotton Mills Have Hard Time,
Other Businesses Suffer Also.
Raleigh, Oct. 22.—The knitting mill
industry, second only to the cotton mills
in the extile growth irt North Carolina,
has steadily advanced in the state dur
ing the past two years, according to
M. L. Shipman, commissioner of labor
and printing. Mr. Shipman Saturday
night issued figures on the industry
which be compiled for chapter II of the
biennial report of his department which
will be presented to /the governor and
legislature on the first of January. The
industry has developed iij. North Caro
lina to the stage where the state ranks
third among the s{£te of the union in
number of establishments and seventh in
total value of its knit goods Os all kinds
produced, according to Mr. Shipman who
made his comparison using bis latest
figures. t
One hundred and. thirty-one knitting
mills are listed by Mr. Shipman with
a total capital stock of $33,994,48a, more
than 875 per cent, greater than 12 years
ago. These mills are using annually
54,002.705 pounds of raw material and
ilie value of the yearly output is given
as $20,058,702. Both of these figures
represent substantial increases over two
•years ago. Twelve years ago the value
of output was but $0,082,500 and the
raw material used, 13.149,425 pounds.
The number of persons employed, av
erage wage, libbers, cards, l)t>rse power—
all have increses during the past two
years. The number of 'spindles has
slightly decreased. There has been one
other decrease, the number of children
employed having been reduced from 049
to 759.
By reason of the condition of the in
dustry, according to the report and based i
on the latest available figures, the State
ranks third in number of establishments,
sixth in the per eentage of value added
during the biennium by manufacture,
seventh in total value of knit goods of
all varieties, seventh in the average uuin- J
her of wage earners, second in the value |
and quantity of knit cotton goods other!
than hosiery, third in value and second
in quantity of, hosiery and second in!
value and quantity of half hpse. j
Two years ago, 29,058 persons were |
dependent on the earnings of the opera
tives. ■ Figures this year show that 35,-
980 persons are supported by the earn
ings of operatives.
Following are some of the paragraphs
of Mr. Shipman’s report:
“The knitting mill industry in the
State has continued its progress- during
the past two years. Standing second at
the time of' the last . biennial report
among the textile group in importance,
thgt position has been held. 'Die state
now ranks third among those of the
union in the number of mills and seventh
in total value of all knit goods manufac
tured.
“One hundred and thirty-one mills, are
Hi operation with a total capital stock of
$33,094,485. The amount of raw ma
terial used annually fe'34,Qf)2,705 pounds
and the value of the yearly output is
$29,058,703. These figures compare
favorably with two years ago.
“The principal products of the mills
are cotton hose, shorts, drawers,. union
suits and half hose. The state takes
second rank in the value and quantity
of knit goods other than hosiery ami
thir din value anil quantity of hose. It
stands second in value and quantity of
half hose. It stands seventh in the av

Once upon a time many timid people
wanted no .bonds in millions for public
roads in North Carolina.. Now nobody is
in doubt about the matter. Everybody
is on the band wagon today. It may be
that the same story will .he told a few
years hence about a state system of
water transportation in North Farolinn.
Thirteen hundred miles of navignble
river-ways and 1.500 niilcjj of navi
gable sounds, but no public port ter
minals, and no water-rate competition
to regulate railway freights. That is the
situation In North Carolina at present.
Does the most progressive state in
the Union hesitate because the question
is new. hesitate while thirty-one other
states get. the jump on us?
A referendum vote for public port
terminals in Maine in 1919 carried by a
majority of four to one- A referendum
vote in Alabama in 1023 authorized ten
million dollars in bonds for public port
terminals.
These are the last two of the thirty
one stated to establish public pAt rer’-
minals.
North Carolina has waked up about
everything else and nobody in America
doubts it. Is slip a Rip Van Winkle
State in public port terminals and wa
ter transportation?

MOSQUITOES BREAK
IP CHURCH REVIVAL
Lisbon Baptist. Church Meeting Sur
renders to Insects—TTwwnasville Boy
is Killed.
Thomasville, Oct.. 20.—The writer j
1 spent last week in Sampson county, the j
‘home of his childhood and youth, hav- ]
ing motored down in company with ]
friends on highway No. 60, the party I
passingth rough Asheboro on to Siler '
City where the main highway was
1 reached which was followed through
1 Sanford, Dunn and Clinton. While in
1 that county a little story of unusual in
-1 terest was incidentally heard concerning
1 the bigggest little pest in that section,
which as moet people know is the mos
' quito, and especially after a long wet
1 spell such ns was experienced last sum
-1 mer. To make a long story short the
: sum and substance is as to how mos
quitoes moved a church, not the house,
but the congregation.
| The time for the revivnl at Lisbon
i Baptist church had arrived, the con
) gregationi had gathered and so had the
revivalists, or those who were to do the
| preaching. The mosquitoes swarmed into
the house and offered such an attack
that, the congregation could neither sing
nor pray, nor could the ministers
preach, everybody in the house being
thoroughly exercised in an effort to de
fend himself against the onslaught of
the disturbers. After every means of de
fense at hand had been employed and
all without avail, that 4 wisdom which is
said to be the better part of valor, did
prevail, at least With some of the mem
bers who suggested that the crowd
should retire from the conflict without
further ceremoniies, which suggestion
was speedily acted upon in a manner
wjtilch clearly demonstrated unanimity
of purpose.
However, it was decided on leaving
the Lisbon grounds that the revival
should be continued at Ingold, a place
'four miles away and it was said the
meeting continued there .unmolested for
several days with excellent results.
Then the question arose amoflg the
members as to the advisability of mov
: ing the church permanently away from
, the present site which is on the bank
. of Black river upon higher ground at Tn
’ gold and this is to be determined later.
Hot Doings.
Tourist: “Well, did you have a long
winter around these parts?”
Native: “Nope. Purtjr livel. So
much scandal in the city papers.”
