Fair officials are confident that at tendance at the Cabarrus County Fair this year will be better than it was at either of the two previous fairs. They are basing their predictions on reports brought to them by tiorsemen and fair officials of other counties who state that generally speaking at tendance has been better this year at all fairs than it was last year and the year before. “These reports,” say local fair men. “make us believe that we will smash all attendance records this year, for despite the fact that last year and the year before were considered ‘bad fair years’ attendance here was fine. If this is a ‘good fair’ year, generally speaking, we should lead the state as we have been doing.” Horsemen who plan to bring their racers here, report that all over the state they hear people talking about the Cabarrus County Fair. “No fair in Phis section of the country,” said one of these men who has been to several fairs in this and adjoining states, “is better adVertised than the Cabarrus Fair, and none ha* a better reputation.” At least 100 horses are expected here for the races, which should be better than ever this year. More . :fian sixty entries have already been listed and the bonks will not be closed until October 10th. * Tlie Winston- Salem fair will be held the week be fore the Cabarrus fair and all of the horses which race there are expected here. These horses, however, have not yet b«*en listed and are expected to increase the total here to near the 100 mark. The grounds here are being cleaned now. with white wash being applied to the fences, trees and some exhibit halls. Other halls have been painted , and otherwise improved. The opening day of the fair. Tues day. October 13th. will be children’s ( day again this year, and thousands of them from all parts of the county j will be expected to help swell the at tendance on the first day. For the past two years a holiday has been granted in the schools and similar • action is expected this year. CONCORD HIGHS TACKLE MOORESYILLE FRIDAY Ccac li McAuley Has Been Putting Them in Shape for Seeoml (tame of the Season. With Plie Albemarle game safely ; tucked away, the Concord Highs have been working hard this week in prep aration for their next struggle, that with Mooresville on Friday. Good heavy workouts have been held by Coach McAuley and some new plays have been developed under his tutilage. A better team should face Mooresville than went against Albe marle lasr Friday. Reports coining from tin* Iredell metropolis indicate that tin* support ers of the eleven there are confident of victory. Mooresville is said to have an unusually strong aggregation and one that will give any opposi tion a tough time. There N not only weight, it iv said, but speed as well. On the other hand, the Concord eleven is firm in the conviction that it can win. backs have shown great ground gaining ability and its line has shown that it can spill op ponents* formations. Particularly gratifying to the spectators was the manner in which the interference worked in plowing irs way through the entire Albemarle team in the Fri day game. It is not likely that the aerial game will be developed to any degree of perfection by Friday. Coach McAuley thinks. Though some progress has been made, bis charges have not been as adept as they might be in this department of the game. Kannapolis Dies at Age of 83. Kannapolis. Sept. 29.—Sarah .lane Irby, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. J. E. Irby, was born in Union county, X. C.. on July 27th, 1842. and passed from labor to reward September 20. 1925, her age therefore at death being S 3 years, one month and twenty days. Nearly sixty year- ago she was married to Jason Moser of the same county and for a half cen tury they traveled life’s road to gether. sharing its joys and sorrows. The fruit of this union was seven children, three daughters and four sons; the husband, one son and three daughters proceeding her to the spirit land. The surviving sons are W. T.. and (J. W. Moser, of Union county and J. T. Moser, of Kannapolis. Very early in life she gave her heart to Christ and became a mem ber of the same Methodist church from which her funeral was con ducted today, She loved her church, but not with a narrow love; she saw the good in all churches. Her f love and her faith looked forward to a city whose builder and maker is God, and she often expressed a de sire to go to that city; her disire amounting almost to a passion. The winds of adversity boat heavily uikhi her frail body, but they were helpless to destroy her faith or shake her consistency. With but two exceptions she was not out of the house for more than three years. Her activities are no longer circum scribed by the infirmities of tbe flesh. D. E. Leflcr Building a New Bant. Stanly News-Herald. According to reports reaching this office it seems that D. E. Letter, of near Milliugport, doesn’t think the drought is going to do much damage to his crops this year. It is said that Mr. Leflcr is now building a new barn on his farm, to take care of stock and feed, and it is 48x€0 feet in dimensions. This is what is properly called a twentieth century optimist, for if a fellow can see a need of such barn after such a drought that has been experienced through this section, they are surely an optojpist. fHE CONCORD DAILY TRIBtJNfc TRAFFIC OFFICER IS GUARDING THE CHILDREN Pays Less Attention to Speeders in Order to Be oftireater Aid to the Children. \ Segt. B. F. Widei&ouse, who for merly spent much time watching for speeders in the city, is doing what he considers a more important piece of work now. Instead of devoting the majority of his time to the speed ers he is staying at the various school houses several hours each day in an effort to make traffic on the streets adjoining t*lie schools safer for the children. Segt. Widen house is working on the assumption that it is better to pro tect the children than to catch every speeder in the city and this opinion he has the sanction of Chief Talbirt and city officials. “By remaining on streets near tin* schools Segt. Widen house is making people more careful near the schools,” Chief Talbirt states, “and we hope and believe motorists soon will become accustomed to slow ing down at the schools without the presence of the officer. I had rather that every speeder in the city escape than to 'have one child injured.” Os course Segt. Widenhouse is still doing traffic duty in other parts of the city, during the time the schools are not in session, and it is noticed that he has assumed a new role in his work with the speeders. Instead of hiding behind some hedge, house, tree or at some street corner, he stays in the open, working on the theory that it is better to prevent speeding than it is to catch the speeder. “1 ride about the city, always stay ing in the open.” the officer points out. “and I think the new plan is better. It is better to let the people see ms. thus keeping them from speed ing. than it i* to hide and catch them after they speed.** Segt. Widenhouse has arrested a number of persons for speeding re cently. but in all cases the drivers were going much above the speed limit, it was pointed out at police headquarters. The rate of speed was such that the drivers were con sidered to be driving recklessly, and for that reason they were arrested, it was said. “EMPTY HEARTS” OPENS TODAY Latest Banner Feature Is a Novel Society Drama.

BALE OF COTTON BURNS AT COUNTY PLATFORM Believed That Persons Must Have Set Fire Since It Had Been Stored There for Days. A bale of cotton belonging to the YV hite-Parks Mill was discovered afire about 5 o’clock this morning when police officers made their rounds in the vicinity of tlie cotton platform where the halo was stored. A hurried call to tlie fire depart ment was put in and the blaze was extinguished in a short time with only a comparatively small damage to the bale of cotton. Officials at the cotton platform were ar a less to explain the cause of the fire and were of the opinion that it must have been set fire by some person or persons. The bale had been stored there during the previous night and day and any smouldering flames would have been detected sooner, it was said.

Those of us who had taken some comfort out of the belief that the dry weather and extreme heat of the past two months had about “put the fixins” on the boll weevil may Ik* dis appointed a little in information giv en out by some of the crop reporters of the United States department of agriculture working in this state. While the early opening of bolls lias beep about ten times as meuh before September 15th a* was the case last year, the field agents say that the remainder of the crop will be found to be considerably ifcuuaged by the weevils. A -report sent out from Raleigh the latter part of last week says boll weevils in this state are eight per cent more numerous than at the same time* last year and twenty per cent more numerous than usually at this thnd. However, the estimate of the cot ton crop was raised last week on the fa<-»* of large early ginning* and it is predicted t*‘iat North Carolina will have about 200.000 bales more than last year. It may develop that lack of mois ture 1 will serve a good purpose in pre venting rotting of bolls punctured by the weevils and that some of these affected will actually make cotton. It does look like th‘*re ought to be some recompense for the sort of a season experienced this year. And there probably is. for nature has a great way of evening up things.

THE GREAT NEED OF DEMONSTRATION AGENTS Monroe Enquirer. If I were to say Tiiion county’s greatest need today is that each of its nine townships should have a good farm demonstration agent, I wonder how many persons would say that l had gone crazy. Farming is away and beyond the biggest business of the county. Wei have one farm agent and a splendid one in the persons of T. J. W. Broom, but he couldn’t virfit in two years’ time the nearly 5,000 farms in the county if tie did nothing else. l>o a little figuring and see. There are only 2(H) possible working days in a year, and ten hours each would give 2.000 hours. And there are 5.000 farms to visit! Another thing. We are spending here in Union county around $300,- 000a year on our children to teach them readin*. 'ritin’and Tithmetic— and a few of them Latin, algebra and science which later they will never be able to put to any practical use. But very little, if any. of ttie $300,000 goes to teach these children farming, trades, or anything of real | practical value that they might use to make a living for themselves after they grow up to manhood’s and wom anhood's estate. There are nine townships in Union county and presumably an average of S(H) farms to the township. One demonstration agent would have his hands full in looking after 500 farms. And here’s a few things he could do. Form this township into n credit association whereby its members might borrow from the banks rather than patronize time merchants. Insist that crop rotation is abso lutely essential, and that growing of legumes is better than purchasing the com me rcia 1 fertilizers. Assist and direct farmers in secur ing cover crops.

It would l be surprising to know how many thou sands of dollars are kept in homes of Fnion county. And if the foregoing is not quite enough to keep a demonstrator busy he might take a little spare time to study up something else to give him self employment. Now, suppose these nine farm agents should be selected from their I own townships, letting good farmers have tlie jobs, wouldn’t the money paid as salaries stay right here at home? If such men were paid only sl(H> per month and they wore in strumental in increasing production on tlie average farm only $5 a year they would have repaid their own salaries. Suppose these agents should make their own farms demonstration farms, wouldn’t that be a fine idea? I nion county’s hope of salvation in meeting high taxes for schools, keep ing up good roads, paying for our automobiles and buying gas. is In the making of our farms mor<\ productive. Everything depends upon the farm. And coming down to the last analysis soil conservation and soil improve ment will turn the trick —and noth ing else will.
