A fruit* which sells for its beauty and de ccrative effect, is the grape in its red .white, gold, green and purple tones. While the apple, peach, pear and orange each have beauty, there is a grace and delicacy of bloom end coloring; in a wellrfUlcd bunch of grapes draped over the top of a large bowl cf other fruits is a pic ture universally admired. "North ParMiwa is ? partinulnrlv fortunate in her supply of grapes." says Prof. C. D. Matthews, head of the Department ot Horti;ulture at State College. "There are the ?picy little Delawares, Niagaras, Con cords, and a number of other virie ties. Right now we are enjoying varieties cf the native muscarine type, such as the Scappernong, James, Mish and Thomas. "The grape is also a wonderful little storehouse of valuable food elements. Raisins are famous for their iron, but this element is much more palatable and present in as great quantity in the grape. Grape sugar, which is one of the chief fac tors in the fine flavor of grapes, is the most readily digested of all fcrms I of sugar. While in tho United States grapes are usually consider ed as a dessert fruit, in the Latin countries, particularly Italy, they are a sustaining food for a large proportion of the population. Bread end grapes form the noonday meal of thousands of peasants who work 14 hours a day with no other food during their working period. Grapes are valuable in giving energy and building up bodily strength and health. "With the fine variety of grapes from which the house-wife may select, the use of this fruit in salads, desserts, and as a breakfast fruit is constantly increasing." MARKET FARM TIMBER IN DROUTH AREAS Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 21? From H. M. Curran, Forester, comes tho time ly suggestion that farmers in the drouth stricken areas of North Carc-? lina might ndd to their income this fall and winter by marketing some of the mature timber now on the farms. Mr. Curran will assist any farmer who wishes to engage In this work and he states that recent surveys have shown that there is a large amount of Merchantable timber on the vericus farms of the drouth area, "The stands are not large In the hand of any individual but the ag gregate amounts are astonishing."' says Mr. Curran. "Farmers may. da group marketing and make coopera tive carlot shipments of timber to the large State markets. Tho fur niture and veneer manufacturers are in the market for oak, popular, gum and Walnut. The handle factories are buying hickory and ash. Dog-, wood is being sought by the bobbin mills and there is always a demand for stave wood, posts, poles and fire wood." Mr. Curran plans to' work this group marketing through the medium cf the county agents of State College employed in the various counties oi the State. Many of them have al ready expressed an interest in the plan. Mr. Curran states that Coun ty Agent W. Kerr Scott of Alamance is the first to plan for a solid car shipment. Walnut will be the first wood cut and the prices for this tim ber range as high as $150 per thous and for the large trees. Mr. Curran states that fanner? who wish to have help in marketing their timber, either singly or cooper ativly, should get in touch with their county agent so that prices and shipping problems may be worked low ' ' . ' ? Tarheel farmers will secure their best seed com by selecting ears in the field from good plants after the corn is mature, sa y agronomy work-' ers of State College. Members of the Scotland Neck Poultry Association in Halifax Coun ty ordered 20 tons of chicken feed cooperatively at a saving of $6.. com pared to local prices.

WORLD JUDGMENT CONCURS More high-powered motor cars were exported by Studebaker dur ing the first six months of 1925 than' by any other automobile maker in America. In most countries, thin achievement was won against the penalty of a horsepower tax, which makes owner ship cf cars more costly in propor tion to their rated power. In ]pnghnd, for example, the buy er must pay a yearly tax z! onr pound per rated horsepower. or~ about $171 on a Studebaker Big Six, cn which the power rating is -36 4. The smallest of the Studebaker cars, tho Standard Six, carries a tax of $129. On the ether hnnd, the tax on cars which compete with the Stan dard Six runs from $81 to $100 each, ratings being frojn 17.3 to 23 4 horse power. In spite of this handicap, the de mand for Studebaker cars gt?w during the first half of the year to such an extent that exportation ex ceeded those of any other Amorican maker of high-pewered cars.
