The 1925 crop brought $87,438,000, and the 1924 crop $73,986,000. The estimated value of the 1926 cotton crop in North Carolina is $66,000,000, compared to the 1925 crop of $103,550,000, and the 1924 crop of $93,263,000. It is seen from the above that tobacco is now king of crops in the Old North State instead of cotton. ^ The total value of the 34 listed crops in North Carolina for 1926 is $311,037,000, as compared with a total value of $340,961,000 for 1925, a net decrease of almost $30,000,000. It is thought by tobacco ware housemen of North Carolina that an over-production of tobacco in 1927 may cause the price of the weed to slump, much as the price of cotton slumped this year be cause of o?er-production. - ESTELLE ITEMS Mr. and Mrs. J.

C, Feb. t.—The I well equipped farm shop that is warm and well lighter! will pay for itself over and over again. “Not only will the well equip ped farm shop make the work of repairing and conditioning farm implements much lighter on the I owner hut the influence over the growing hoy must not be Over ! looked." says David S, Weaver, j agricultural engineer at State II ollege. "Many of our present day inventions owe their begin ning to the hsfhdling of tools in the farm shop. Many of our engineers and the heads of our gigantic industrial corporations had their first training and re ceived their first practical knowl edge of tools in the farm shop.’’ Prof. Weaver states that every boy and most men like to make things with their hands. There are any number of necessary labor-saving devices for both the farm and the home that may be made easily and pleasantly in the farm shop. A good set of wood and metal working tools does not ’have to be purchased at one time. It is best to add such tools as they are needed and then keep them in good condition after they have been 'purchased. It never pays to buy cheap tool. They are always more expensive in the end. Every progressive farm should be equipped with a good farm work-shop. Machinery can be re paired during spare hours, many implements can be built at home af little cost and much time can be saved by the owner's ability to make small adjustments on the home place. There are other ad vantages which the owner will find after he has equipped his shop, states Prof. Weaver, and certainly the boy will be given his chance to develop any ability that he may have with tools. COBB MEMORIAL GIRLS ^ DEFEAT SEMORA H. S. Through a field goal flipped in to the basket in the closing moments of play by a Cobb for ward. the Cobb team outpointed the Semora team, on the Yancey ville court, Friday evening, by a score of 18 and 20. The game white fast was characterized by roughness. At the end of the first quarter Semora led by one point but when the second quarter began the Cobb girls did everything but the Charleston on the court and tied the score 14 and 14. When the third quarter began both teams played hard, each scored 4 points tying the score again 18 anad 18. Neither team made a goal dur ing the final quarter until the last moment of play when a Cobb for ward threw the goal which won the game for them. The Cobb Memorial girls play ed a good game considering what little practice they have had since the Christmas holiday. The line-up: Cobb Mem. (20) Semora (.18) M. Neighbor's Scott Right Forward L.

'".T —..™r~~ NEW TIRE TREAD SUPERIOR PRODUCT The new Goodyear All-Weather balloon tire, announced shortly after January first, is the most important development in the automobile tire industry since the introduction of the cord tire, ac cording to J. 0. Gunn of the Crowell Auto Co., tire dealers at Yanccyville. “Ever since balloon tires were introduced, the Goodyear com pany has been conducting exten sive experimentation for the pur pose of developing a pew and superior,dread,” Mr, Gunn said. “During a two-year period Ho different treads were constructed by Goodyear and put into road ser vice covering hundreds of thou sands of miles, and out of this practical research has come the new Goodyear All-Weather tread, scientifically designed for balloon tire use. Increased qualities of traction and a high degree of resistance to skidding are two of the major ad vantages of the new tread, while i the sharp-edged diamond shaped blocks are biult so that they grip the road and retain their useful ness longer than any previous non-skid tread used on balloon tires. “Another feature is long, even and slow tread wear as opposed to uneven and rapid tread wear noticeable in many ballooon tires in the past, and the new tire runs smoothly and quietly without producing vibration. "The manufacturers, builders of more than 75,000,000 tires, de clare the new product to be the longest-wearing and most trouble free balloon tire Goodyear has ever produced.” Mr. Gunn also stated. % v • , 4 j the expense of the campaign.
