Raleign, March b. Governor Bickett issued 'Tlanting Day" procla mation a few days ago, and tomorrow morning will " find the Columbia Fed eral Farm Land Bank adopting his idoas in serving four States. President von En gel ken has pre pared for the South Carolina press an article which has not yet been dis seminated, a copy of which has come to the papers: of this State. In this letter he makes plain that the land bank can serve those only who show disposition to plant intelligently and indemnify themselvc ' against the food supplies of the West. His ob servation that South Carolina spent outside the State $89,000,000 for prod ucts which could have easily been produced in that Stale last year, in dicates .that a Bickett proclamation would, with even more force, apply to .that State than to North Carolina. Besides this $89,000,000 so spent, the farmers of th:;t State sent out $10, 000;000 for horses and mules. The banker wants evidence sent to his bank that mules and horses cannot be grown in that State. -The letter to the press is all the more remarkable in view of the pres ident's disposition to help those only j cip who show themselves able to feed themselves. Governor Bickett had not returned to the State today and has not seen the rare tribute paid to him by the head of the new bank which Raleigh didn't get after a fine fight for it. Mr. von Engelken's ar ticle, which follows, is short and full of meat: "I have read with much interest the proclamation issued by Governor Bickett of North Carolina to the peo ple of his State, setting aside April 5 as Planting Day. "Wholly in support of the procla mation made by Governor Bickett, and as a matter of information to the farming population of the States of North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor gia and Florida, I wish to point out at this time that one of the principal factors that will be taken into con sideration by the board of directors of this bank, in passing upon appli cations for loans to be made through the Federal Land Bank of Columbia. will be whether or not the applyin v.w;w.,.v.swww - - l ' .i ' ' ; ts sit w..: at. i -c it -nr, Lands ail Qvcfall Faelory Plenty mouth moist Miss I c-ctta Walsh, of Philadelphia, who has become tha first woman mval recrui In the history of the United States.

Npt only is the attendance large;1 than has ever before been the cast, but the pupils seem to be taking a greater interest in their work, and the faculty members are delighted over this fact. ; : Already, plans are being, made to make the coming term another rec ord breaker in every detail. While full plans have not - been completed, it is understood that n company is to be formed in New Bern to operate an overall factory, and it is believed that this will be a reality in the course of a month Or two. It is planned to start on a small scale at first and then to enlarge later on, and one well-known wholesaler has already agreed to take the entire output of the plant. The matter is to be put up to the Chamber of Commerce, and that body will be asked to give all possible as sistance toward making the plant possible. - ", - i Along with the news that an enor-i vear. rnrougnoui me greaiei tui tion of the year a kitchen garden will supply the family fresh vegetables. For the balance of the year a small canning plant will make any surplus available. The city man today con siders good home-cured meat a lux ury, and yet the great bulk of cur farmers are buying packmg-nousc fere with the mustering out, which takes place Tuesday.

Anyway, tho Farmers' Union men will come here to save their institu tion from a profanation by calling it "State" names. They will meet in the office of Dr. Ppe and then go to the Governor's. The purpose is not to change a,ny name, because the Legislature can do that only. But they do hope to give it from the abun dance of civic nothings heard here re cently both a local habitation and a name.
