It is not unusual now to write of the things in whirh North Carolina exeells. The eoiumns of this paper have carried many such stories in re cent months, hut just the same its a story that doesn't grow tame with us Bud wc are glad when we see other evidences of the marvelous growth of the State that is now challenging the world. The latest story of North Carolina that has come to our attention deals with her agricultural life, a factor that is playing no little part in the onward march of the Stale. Accord ing to the Federal Department of Agriculture North Carolina leads all the States of the South Atlantic Sea board in valhe of farm production, the total for -the State being $429.- UOO.OOO. with tin- total for the entire group of States being $1,567,000,000. for the lust year. A recently published analysis of a survey by Federal agents shows that the $1,567,000,000 valuation of the farm production of the group of States referred to included $1,223,000,000 as the return front field crops and $344,- . OiHt.OOO from livestock products. Again, this State holds an enviable for her diarying industry has developed rapidly in recent years un til the value of these products is com parable with the returns from numer ous other individual sources of wealth for Tar Heel farmers, j,*. That analysis also disclosed that, ill value of farm production "Vir ginia was third, with $315.000,000. Then came South Carolina With $232.- 000.000, Maryland with $122,000,000 and Florida with $106,000,000. To-! , tal farm production of the United States last year was $17,336,000,000 matte up of $11,404,000,000 iu field: ‘ crops and $5,951,000,000 in livestock, i s “Average value of farm production _per acre iu the South Atlantic Sea-1 board States was 821. compared with the average for the United States of ? “ $lB- an acre. Maryland was first in .. per acre value with $27 to its credit. * followed by North Carolina with s2l, 'iif and South Carolina was sl9. Flori . da had $lB, Virginia sl7. and Geor v « Ul ! jH, Income of American farmers, the ffif bulletin shows, has risen more than 35 per cent, iu the last ten years. How p' this increased revenue is raising Mu; j jwjr standard of thing on "the form is in dieated by sales statistics, which Bpthow a growing demand among farm gl'/crs for more and bewer merchandise.

EpH.eotirae. we are not dependent on Kalla-'agriculture and in that we are Hi;, / doubly blessed. While our farmers are showing the way to other farm people in the South, our manufactur ers are showing the way to the rest of the manufacturers the world over. We can do things because we are not dependent on any other thing, and di versity of interests is the chief factor in gaining for North Carolina the leadership of the, South and the ad miration of the world. A NEGRO COMES CLEAR. The verdict in the Neely ease at Asheville was unusual and at the same time it will do much to stop the oft-repeated statement that the ne gro has uo chance for a square deal in the South. It is not often that a negro, identi fied by the woman attacked, escapes with his life, yet Neely's counsel built up for him such a strong defense that it was not surprising that he was found not guilty. Thd woman who testified against Neely undoubtedly was certain in her own mind that she had the right man, yet the other wom en, white women at that, whose char acters could not be assailed, were just as positive that Neely was at work in a case when the alleged assault took place. We have no sympathy for the man. white or black, who attacks a Voman, but at the same time we want to see justice administered in the courts. It is not right to convict a negro just because he is a negro, and members of the colored race can see in the Neely ease plenty of evidence that they are not discriminated against in North Carolina. GRADY CORRECTS ERROR IN RECORD Second Case of Prison Records Show ing Wrong Term For Prisoner. Raleigh News ami Observer. Tile good memory of Judge Henry A. Grady, of Clinton, has saved Julius Moore from serving two additional years in the state prison. Moore, who was paroled today by the governor, on recommendation of H. Hoyle Sink, pardon commissioner, was sectenced by Judge Grady in May. 1923, in l’itt County Superior Court, to serve three years fjr man s aughter. , In some way, it seems an error was made in recording the sen tence, and it was made five years. When Moore applied for a parole, under the itupfescieu that he had about -served ids three-year sentence, . he learned that Cue record read five years, not three. Attorneys for the prisoner assured Mr. Sink that it must be an error, and Judge Gradv replied to a letter from the pardon commissioner with the positive asser- ' tion that the man was sentenced for only three years—that he clearly re called the sentence. Judge Grady recommended tin* pa role, as did the trial solicitor and oth er officials familiar with the case. This is the second case. Mr. Sink states, since lie has been pardon com missioner. that lias come to his at tention where a sentence was incor rectly recorded* The other case oc curred sometime ago. In the first case, however. Homer 0. Covington, : of Mecklenburg, the prisoner, was under the impression that he had been sentenced to a longer period titan was shown by the records. On in- , vestigation, Mr. Sink learned of the error, and went to the penitentiary to arrange for the youth’s parole, 18 days prior to the -expiration of his actual sentence. He found that the boy. under the impression that he liad a year and 18 days to serve, had ; escaped that day. He has not been apprehended. Describes Advanced Art as Inhuman; “Riraa” as Bestial. London, Nov. 7.— (/P)—The Hon. John Collier, eminent artist, describes advanced art as ugly and. inhuman. ll<> so told the Authors' Club and then flayed* "Rima," the w ork of Jacob Ep stein, the sculptor. "I have no hesitation in calling ‘Rima’ a bestial figure, horribly mis shapen, with enormous claw-like hands and the head and face of a micro cephalous idiot. If critics met a woman like that in the street they would flee from her shrieking, but be cause it is done by Epstein they are almost willing to embra<*e her.” Turning to modern fashions, he said the mode of today, “when wom en's waists are halfway down their thighs." was one of the things which showed “how easily we could tolerate unwholesome distortions of the natur ally beautiful form.” Builds Up Farm Land. Albemarle, Nov. 7.—OP)—A succes sion of soil building crops and the J practice of better farm methods hive increased the yields on the farm of M. I*. Russel, Albemarle Route No. 6, from practically nothing to a point 1 where it will produce a bile of cottou | to the acre this year, reimrts C. H. I Phillips, farm agent iu Btaul.v county. I Ten years ago Mr. Russel moved to this place, and, according to his state ment, it would prqduee almost noth ing at that time. He Anally got a good stand of red clover, which, two successive years, was turned under. The fiiird year, he produced a good crop of wheat, he says. I Profiting by this experience,' the 'county agent repdrts, Mr. Russell siuce that time has planted soil build ing crops as a regular part of his farui program. Profit From Soy Beans. Rehlsville, Nov. 7, — -(V) —A. D. Bopkinsf* of lleaaja. in Rockingham county, will make a clear profit of S3O j>er acre on a field of Laredo soy beaus planted last spring. That is the report of Farm Agent F. 8. Walker, who says that the beans were planted in rows thirty inches apart, and.nfere cultivated twice, during the year.' In addition to the cash profit,- the vines amt stubble left on the land is estimated by Mr. Hopkins to be worth at least S2O per acre in plant food value.

B.—Eight years j ago a pretty girl of eighteen ran away from home in Little Rock. Avk.. ' and joined a tabloid musical ooipedy \ company. Yesterday the same girl signed a eoptraet offered to her by Gatti-Cirgazza to appear with the Metropolitan Opera Company. Mary Lewis, former church choir singer, chorus, movie extra, Ziegfeld i Follie girl and light opera singer, is 1 now a lyric soprano with, the Metro- ( politan. All this in a span of years so i short that Mary Lewis hasn't awak- j ened to the glory of her achievement, s When she was eight Mary was adopted by a Methodist minister and * his wife. When she was fifteen she r ran away. She was taken in by an other family who. encouraged her i musical bent. She learned to play organ, piano ] and violin as welt as sing. She eon- I [ tinue with her choir lessons until ] the day a tabloid musical qomedy company came to town. When the 1 company left. Mary went with it. j The company played through the i Southwest and reached California, 1 where it stranded. Mary then be- j came a bathing beauty in*hioving pic- ij ture comedies. A steady surge of am- ji bit'on made money. In New i 1 York she reasoned, a girl with talent 1 has a better chance. Five years ago j she arrived iu New York. Her first i job was iu a Greenwich ’Village cab- ] aret. A few months later she join- ] ed the chorus of the “Greenwich Vil- < lage Follies" at $35 a week. Six days later John Murray Ander- i son, the company manager, heard her 1 sing. He signed her as a principal at ]l SIOO a week. The next season Miss Lewis be- 1 came a member of the "Ziegfeld Fol- i l ! es” east. For two years she sang i and danced, but kept in sight of the ] goal of all serious-himled singers— i the oi>era. dm- night Otto H. Kaon heard her 1 sing. He arranged an audition her* before Gatti-Casazza, who inline- j diately offered her a contract. , "No. 1 have a great deal to learn," 1 said Miss Lewis. "I must continue j to study, and then, when I am a i more finished product, I will accept." 1 Two years ago in Europe she made , Iter aperatic debut as Marguerite :n Faust" at the Volksoper in Vienna. A few days ago Miss Lewis np- ; issued before Mr. TCasazxa for an other audiltion. This time she accept- H ed tlie contract offered by the ernper- 4 or of that gray citadel of song—the ra Metropolitan Opera House. HOME TIES RESTING LOOSELY IN DURHAM !!
