STRANOB EXPERIENCE OF
OODNTRY LUTE CATTISH
from Pag. 1)
foot steel rod. Examination dis
posed that it was the identica!
rod which Mr. Perkinson had lost
twelve months ago.
Norman J. Waugh, prominent
hard ware man of Danville, was
present when the catch was made,
and confirms in aif details the
strange story. Both Messrs.
Waugh and Green are gentleman
of the highest veracity, and both
aver, increduious as it may appear,
that the story is absolutely true.
Caswell fishermen declare it is
evident that when the big Ash
seized Mr. Perkinson's hook t2
months ago, that it surely darted
dowp stream at such an angle
that the end of the rod struck
under the gills of an onlooking
Ash with such force that it pro
truded through the mouth until
^he line was broken. Two feet
of the rod was protruding from
the mouth; the remainder of it
trailing from the gills.
Mr. Waugh asserts that the
Country Line creek catAsh jtp
peared to have suffered but little
from its wonderful experience,
and with the exception of some
slight irritation about the gills,
he big fellow looked as if he was
in the best of health.
BRYAN MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION
HEADED BY DANIELS
(Ceatinaed from Page t)
monument is to be raised in hon
or of him whom they esteemed
st) highly, and that it will be their
pieasure to contribute what they
can to so nob!e a cause.
A recent dispatch appearing in
the Raleigh News and Observer
announcing the appointment of
Mr. Everett as State Chairman of
the Association follows:
R O. Everett, of Durham, has
accepted the presidency of the
North Carolina Bryan Memorial
Association, it was announced
yesterday in a telegram from
Josephus Daniels, president of the
National Association. He will
shortly name county chairman
and perfect an organization.
It is felt by local admirers of
Mr. Bryan that a very fortunate
selection was made in the choice
of Mr. Everett. They point out
that he is widely known and has
the executive ability needed to as
semble the Bryan forces in the
State in an ehfectvie drive for a
memorial commensurate with the
alTection in which the Commoner
was held in North Carolina.
Mr. Everett, also, it was noted,
is and has been aligned with the
elements of the Democracy which
always, stood loyally in support
of Bryan's progressive and liberal
policies. He had a profound ad
miration for the Nebraskan and to
labor that Bryan shall have an
adequate memorial will he a labor
of love, it is declared by those
familiar with his views.

DAIRY INDUSTRY
GROWING IN N. C.
Rateigh, N. C., April T9-—North
Carotina is making great progress
'in dating despite statements
made by some who say that there
is a growing decrease of cattle in
the State
J. A. Arey, dairy extension
speciatist at State Cottcge. reports
that the dairy industry in North
Carolina is in a heatthy condition,
i Of course, he states, there is a
tack of feedstuffs in the piedmont
and mountain sections hut on the
whote, more mitk is being produc
ed, more butter and ice cream be
ing manufactured and more pure
bred dairy butts and cows in the
State than ever before. The toss
of cattte. as shown by recent re
ports, came about with the aboli
tion of free range conditions when
many scrub dairy cows were sotd
and with a decrease in beef cattte
production.
i Mr. Arey and his associates
have just finished hotding feed
schools in counties of the State
and find there is much interest
in dairy farming. Last year a
campaign put on by these work
ers resutted in about Joo pure bred
dairy butts being placed. There
are five cow testing associations
now in operation and many farm
ers adjacent to the targer cities
are budding new barns and en
larging their herds. Mr. Arey
states that a new creamery is be
ing built now in Macon county
where the supply of cows war
rants such an industry. In Jack
son county the farmers are rapid
ly buying the too cows which they
set as a goat for this year and
there are twelve North Carolina
counties now producing over one
million dollars worth of mitk per
year.
In Union county, commonly
known as a cotton county, about
t.ooo gallons of mitk per day are
being produced and sold* The
farmers are receiving an average
of 30 cepts per gatton for this mitk
which means an industry bring
ing in over $100,OQO to tbe county.
This is about Half the value of
the cotton crop of that county,
states Mr. Arey.
"the curculio is a beetle
passes the winter as an adult :
emerges in the spring before tne
fruit is set," says C. H. Brannon,
extension entomologist at State
College. "Just after the petals
fall, the qurculiojays its eggs in
the young peach. The larva or
worm spends about 20 days feed
ing in the peach, leaves the fruit
and enters the soil where it
changes to the pupa stage in
earthen cells from one to three
inches below the surface of the
soil, In about ten days, this pupa
emerges as an adult and is soon
ready t<< lay eggs again."
To contro! this pest, Mr. Bran j
non advises a first application of
dust or spray, when about 75 per
cent of the Hewer petals have fal
len. The spray recommended is
one pound of arsenate of lead to
fifty gallons of water plus lime
water from three pounds of stone
lime. As a dust, use five per cent
of lead arsenate and 93 per cent of
lime The second application is
applied when the calyces or
shucks are shedding or when the
small peaches are exposed, using
the same material.
The third application is made
four weeks before each variety is
due to ripen. As a spray, Mr.
Brannon recommends the materia!
as given in the first and second
applications using the self-boiled
lime sulphur (8-8-30) for diseases.
The dry mixed lime sulphur may
he used in place of the self-boiled
lime surphur using the following
dust, 8d per cent sulphur, 3 per
cent lead arsenate and 15 per cent
lime '
Nearly 4,000 club members have
been enrolled to date In 147 clubs
by 37 county agents in North Car
olina.
The first infestation of boll
weevil on the upper edge of the
cotton growing section of North
Carolina will be light, states W.
Bruce Mabee, who has studied the
emergence of the weevils from
