Exercise of Caution

Leonard Tufts
With the encourag'ement of E. H.
Garrison, the county demonstration
agent, the farmers, especially around
the Eureka neig-hhorhood, are pro
posing to turn their attention toward
a cream and milk route which it is
proposed to establish under the juris
diction of a company at Asheboro. It
is no secret that the Moore county
farmer is playing in hard luck, and
he is trying to get himself on a bet
ter footing. Some years ago Dune
McCrimrnon, of the Little River
Stores, was instrumental in awaken
ing a broader interest in poultry, and
through the work he did much poul
try has been sold outside of the
county. Poultry is also looking up in
the neighborhood, and if milk cows
can be given more leeway in the farm
scheme the prospect is good.
Saturday in a few minutes’ talk
with Leonard Tufts the subject of
milk cattle came up briefly. Mr. Tufts
has had more experience with milk
production than any other man in the
county, and what is to the point it has
been a profitable production. He
says his judgment about milk in
Moore county is that it is one of the
outlets that give promise. But he also
cautions care in the methods follow
ed, for in undertaking to make milk
a profitable factor on the farm many
things have to be kept in mind. One
is that milk cattle bring to any farm
a highly specialized form of farm
ing. The milk cow must be a good
producer, cared for religiously, abun
dantly and methodically fed, and the
feed must be produced or obtained at
a cost that will permit a production
of milk that can be sold at a price j orchestra. Miss Will Frances

The Ladies Aid of the Baptist
Church in Aberdeen held a meeting
at the home of the president, Mrs. M.
M. Creel on last Thursday afternoon
at 3 o’clock. Several important items
of business were discussed. The new
pcws have arrived for the church, and
as soon as the floor is stained, will
be installed. The interior of the
church auditorium has been plastered,
and the wood work painted, new win
dows put in and the whole presents a
modern and very much improved ap
pearance.
The Aid voted to extend thanks to
the following people for their assist
ance in the recent dinner served to
the Masons: To J. McN. Johnson for
the use of the building; to Miss Ma
bel Robertson and her ninth grade do
mestic science class for serving; to
Mrs. G. B. Peterson, who prepared the
fruit cocktails, and to Jchn Sloan, who
rendered valuable aid in several dif
ferent ways.
It was voted to have a food sale on
December 7th, the place to be an

meeting and there was so much bus
iness, no social hour was held.

Last Thursday evening the Affili

a dinner in the Manor Hotel, Pine

a most delightful program by the
faculty and pupils of the Pinehurst

make money in milk in this market.
Many cannot because they have not
the faculty of watching the detail
that enters into milk production, and
the fondness for the work, which is
one of the main essentials.
Milk Can Be Produced
Mr. Tuft’s experience is that milk
cannot be made without feed, and
that it cannot be made to sell prof
itably at the price that can be obtain
ed here the year ’round unless the
feed is to be had at a reasonable
price, and is supplied abundantly to
the cow^ at all times. The only kind of
dairy business that will pay is that
kind that makes good milk, milk that
will stand the tests required in these
modern days, for at every grocery in
the county condensed milk may be
had at a price that represents about
nine or ten cents a quart of raw
milk. And canned milk is excellent
milk. It is made where dairies are
established on the most efficient
basis, and canned milk will always
be a keen competitor of raw milk in
every community.
Yet Mr. Tufts says his experience
is that: milk is profitable if the work
is carried on efficently. But a dairy
cow is no investment for the man who
is not willing to be on hand every
day in the year and every morning
and evening to attend to his dairy
work. He finds that pastures can be
made in this county, that much feed
can be grown here, and that milk can
be produced, as his herds show. But a
local market is a difficulty. That is
one drawback at Pinehurst. The herds
there have an excellent outlet in win
ter for their milk at prices that are
satisfactory. But summer tells another
story. Not many farmers can pro
duce butter that will sell in competi
tion with Wisconsin butter, for in
stance. If milk can be sold to cream
routes that should look highly prom
ising. But butter to succeed to any
extent must be made at a butter
factory. There the competition of
Iowa and Wisconsin come in, for the
local creamery cannot pay high prices
for milk for butter with the competi
tion of northern butter factories. But
they can pay as much as northern fac
tories, and if our people will produce
milk as farmers do in the north, the
South has a wide field for milk and
butter products.
Mr. Tufts and Mr. Blue both coun
sel against many cows for a start.
Producing milk is a business that
must be learned, and it is learned
slowly. Mr. Garrison will look after
that phase of it, and he says he thinks
the task is possible of accomplish
ment. His idea is a few cows on ev^ery
farm, and a gradual growing into the
new line.

W. P. Morton of Pinehurst was host,
and he presided during the dinner and
program. At the close of the most
entertaining program, E. A. West of
the Elise High School took th? chair.
Mr. West is president of the Affil
iated Clubs of the four counties. He
made the address of welcome and also
stressed the accomplishments of
“Educo” in Moore county. There fol
lowed a most interesting discussion

W. P. Morton as chairman of a
special committee gave a brief ab

have this report published in the
Moore County papers.
After some discussion it was voted
to have “School Publicity” as the main
objective for this next year. Sane,
wholesome publicity would not only
help to do away with misunderstand
ing, but it would also bring about de
sirable cooperative action. An invi

As taste in smoking develops, it naturally leads toward better quality.
New smokers may not be critical but when they once experience the true
mildness and surpassing fragrance of the Camel blend, they realize that
here is a real superiority. It is for smokers of such discernment that Camels

The Home Bakery at Southern Pines
presented her grandmother, Olive R.

Wedding Cake which was decorated

The whole community at West End
was shocked to hear of the death of
George A. Smith on the night of the
19th. Mr. Smith has been a resident
at West End several years and was
highly esteemed in the community in
which he lived and by a large circle
of friends made at College and on
the road. He was a high type of
Christian gentleman, well educated,
well read. He was a thoughtful man
and a cordial and companionable
friend. '
Mr. Smith was division manager for
the S. F. Bowers Co. of Fort Wayne,
Ind., and was on the road for the in
terest of this firm the most of his
time. He was graduated from the Un
iversity, class of 1916. He was bom
in 1886 in Nelson county, Va. but
was a resident at University nine
years before coming to North Caro
lina. He was happily married in 1907
to Miss Florence Jackson Sutphin of
Willis, Carol County, Va., who sur
vived him. A brother, L. W. Smith,
Knoxville, Tenn., and two sisters, Mrs.
J. W. Hurson, Birmingham, Ala., and
Mrs. K. E. Bradshaw, Washington,
D. C., also survives.
Funeral services were held at his
residence and interment was made in
the cemetery at West End.
