further increased taxation against
members of the medical profession in
the State of North Carolina were

Dr. J. H. Stallings Tells of Work |
Around Hi>;h Point and |
Plans for Extension j
Around 500 farmers assembled in
the Court House at Carthage last
Friday to hear the discussion on Soil |
Eroeion by Dr. J. H. Stallings, of the
High Point office, who is in charge
of this work in the state. It is hard to
tell at this time just what will come
out of all this. Dr. Stallings explain
ed the work which they are doing
around High Point and we are hop
ing that we may be able to get in on
this, provided more money is appro- ^
priated by Congress which he seems
to think will be done. !
The facts which he brought out I
were both interesting and instructive.
According to Dr. Stallings there is as
much .soil fertility carried off by rains j
each year as it would take to make |
farms filling up the dams on these
streams. About the only way to
remedy this condition is by putting in ,
terraces and cover crops. On land too,
the association held at the Moore twenty crops. He al.so brought out j
County Hospital on February 8th: | other interesting facts in regard to!

greatly di.sappointed and found the
arrangements to be most unsatisfac

remuneration for services rendered
aud have even out-of-pocket expen

“It is resolved, therefore, that
measures be adopted to remedy these
matters and that doctors no longer
be discriminated against.

Gymkhana to Be on
Card Here Saturday
Chicken I)ri\ing—.\ New Stunt—
Will Be .Added to I'siial Frograni^
of Jumps and Novelties
The Washington's birthday holi
day period in Pinehurst would fall
flat without its annual speedy, color
ful. and fun-provoking gymkhana. It
will be held Saturday afternoon, be
ginning at 3 o’clock in the Carolina
riding ring. No races are scheduled
at the race track for that day, and
this will be an opportunity for rid
ers of all ages to show their skill
and spunk.
A new event is being arranged,
that of a chicken driving contest
and is to be participated in by la
dies only. No one seems to be quite
.ertain what sort of contest this
will be but it sounds interesting. Es
pecially, if the chickens are of the
ordinary farmyard variety. In addi-
ti(m there will be a pig race, al.50 for
the ladies, mule polo, a potato race,
tilting, ribbon race, and jumping-.
The gymkhana is open to everyone
.'ind those intere.sted in entering arc
asked to get in touch with Eliot
Baita at the Carolina.
This event promises to have more
than the usual color and charm as
there is more than ordinary interest
in equestrianism manifest.
