Meeting- For Tobacco Growers Next Tuesday Fertilizers and Disease Work To He Discussed at (iatherinj; in Court Hou.se County Farm Agent E. H. Garri son, Jr., announces a meetii.;’; in the court room at Carthage on Tuesilay night, February 14th at 7:30 ]>. m, for all tobacco growers in the coun ty. This will be an educational mect- nig on fertilizers and di.seasc work. Since these are two of our major problems in the county, I hope that cach and every one who possibly can will make arrangements to attend this meeting,” he said. “Moving pic tures will be shown to illustrate the work as the program is being carried on. New methods have been develop ed in the handling of Blue Mold which has C8u.«^d us lots of trouble an^ los.ses here for several years, II is my understanding that the treatment is well past the experimen tal stage and that the method of con trol is sure and easily handled. This and many other points of interest in regard to control of insects and di- sea.ses will be brought out. Many of these things can be brought out better in an illustrated lecture of this kind than in any other way, “The fertilizer problem is always one of interest and one on which a good bit of money could be saved in most any year. Also the method end rates of application have quite a bit to do with the crop as grown, r*" the crop is not properly grown we know that it is much harder to cure. The latest method of applying and the results from applying side applications will also be explained. All in all I think that this will be one of the best meetings of the year nd I hope that each and every one who possibly can will attend this meeting and pass the word around to others who rriay not have an oppor tunity to see the papers. Remember that this will be an illustrated lec ture and one that I think that we ■ hould all be interested in."

Al.so, Ruth Burr Sanborn, whose mystery stories, “Murder Oft the Aphrodite,” and “Murder by Jury’’ are on the “Local Author” Phelf, has used Raleigh and the Sand hill section as a setting for some of her short stories. We also have the books of Struth- crs Burt and of his wife, Katherine Newlin Burt. Many people do not know that Mr. Burt's poetry and es says are as good ad his fiction, and we suggest that you try them. Mrs. Burt's books have been satisfying a lai-ge leading public for a great many years. Other authors who have lived, or are living in this section are; Dr, F:rnest M. Poate, Donald Parson, A. E. Apple, Bion H. Butler, and Almet Jenks. The Sandhill section evidently has a definite appeal to those persons who write. We are proud of our “Local Authors" shelf. Not many towns can boast of such a collection of books. We recommend this shelf to your attention, for we believe that in it you will find keen delight and enjoyment, as well as a familiarity with our state, our section, and our authors.
