An attempt is being mad£ in Washington, I). C., by public school and city officials to make school traffic zones safe for school children. Patrols made up of school boys are watching the streets near the schools and arc. warning the younger pupils to be careful and cautious when they cross the streets. Superintendent Ballou, of the Washington schools, has drawn up a set of traffic rules for school children which all are expected to follow. These rules are: (1) _Do not run across a street from behind a parked car. Al ways be sure there are no ap proaching cars. (2) Do not skate qr play in the streets. (3) Do not beg rides. (4) Do not hang on automo biles. (5) In crossing streets where ■ traffic is-controlled by lights, al ways cross -only on the green signal. (<;>) Automobiles bringing pu pils to school should approach the school so as to stop on the side of the street next to the school and not put the children out across the street from the school. These rules should be followed in Washington and everywhere else. HELP FOR THE COTTON FARMERS The cotton crop this year will be the largest ever grown, says the October forecast issued by the Government. The crop is estimated at 16,627,000 bales,; each of 500 pounds gross weight. (The average net weight of a bale of cotton is about 480 pounds). Since the Government’s September estimate the market price of cotton has steadily fallen. When the October forecast was made public it dropped as low as 1 j yt cents a pound. Cotton 'farmers sav that such a low price is from $20 to $25 a bale less than the cost of production. President Coolidge has appoint ed a special committee to aid the cotton farmers in every way pos sible. The members are Eugene Meyer, managing director of the War Finance Corporation: Sec retary of the Treasury Mellon; Secretary of Commerce Hoover; and Secretary of Agriculture Jar dine. The committee has decid ed that, the Government shall lend a total of 30 million dollars tef the cotton farmers, and more if needed, through the Federal Reserve and Federal Farm Loan banks. With this help from the Government the growers will not have to sell their cotton at the present time, but can store it un til better prices prevail. 1 Blisters, callouses, in* grown toenails and other foot troubles jean generally be traced to ill fitting shoes worn in childhood. Clean houses, clean yards, good feed and fresh water will p^y with the poultry this winter. DAIRY INDUSTRY GROWS IN TAR HEEL STATE Raleigh, N. C., Oct. 27,—'The dair industry is making a healthy, substantial growth in North Car olina.' Figures compiled by John A. Arey, dairy extension specialist at State College, show a remark able growth in.the dairy industry as witnesses by the fact that nine of the principal cities pay to the farmers of the surrounding sec tions $4,178,520 annually for milk. This does not include the total milk bill of these nine cities but is the amount of money they are paying, to dairy farmers of their immediate section. Mr. Arey state# that there are twelve milk plants now in the State. Seven have been estab lished since IQ20. There are fif teen creameries which make blit ter and seven of these were also established since 1920 with oth ers now ^ being constructed; A total of 7,500 farmers are selling cream to these establishments for the purpose of making butter and the annual production of but ter by the creameries amounts to 2,000,000 pounds, The annual production 6f cheese by the mountain factories is 75.00° pounds. The value of this cheese is $16,500 and the amount of cash paid to creamery patrons each year for butterfat is $640,000. This income from the cheese and butterfat is in addition to the $4,178,520 paid annually for milk by the nine cities. Another fact substantiating Mr. A rev’s claim as to the growth of the dairy industry is?that a Jersey cow of Mecklenburg county holds the all southern butterfat produc tion of 1,003.74* pounds. The state also has the only medal of merit hull in the South and the fifth in the Nation. There are more cow-testing associations in North Carolina than in any other state in the South except Vir ginia. Then, above all elsg, there has been an increase of 250 percent in the consumption of milk in the, larger cities of North Carolina. rgas AGRICULTURAL YEARBOOK FREE The 1925 Yearbook of the De ! part merit of Agriculture, which is the fifth and last of a series in augurated under the direction of the late Henry C.
