COWS AND MEN—
/VHAT NAME FOR HOOVER?—
THE DIKE BROTHERS—
FARMERS IN JAPAN—
Moosejaw, Saskatchewan, gave
a dinner to Ben. H. Thomson in
honor of his Holstein-Friesian cow,
Canary Cordyke. They both de
served. The Saskatchewan Gov
ernment bought the cow for $10.
000.
Canary is world’s champion in
butter fat and gives enough milk
in a day to last the average fam
ily a month. In 305 dys, this won
der cow produced 1,080 pounds of
butter an(j 20,300 pounds of milk.
Too bad there is no way of im- j
proving men's brains, as we im-1
prove cows’ udders. Only time can
do that, and time is slow. The av- I
erage intelligence in the British
House of Commons today, accord-!
ing to Lecky, is lower than the j
average of all the free men in !
Athens, 3,000 years ago. Science j
goes ahead, man stays aboutj
where he was, a little less bru
tal, a little less selfish.
If Americans call President j
Coolidge “the silent President’ I
what will they call Mr. Hoover? |
He has been elected President of
the United States, will begin his !
work in less than two months, lias ,
been in Washington several days
at work. H<rw much has he talk- I
ed? Not at all.
Eight years more of business
without conversation will suit |
this country very well. Wo have
had, at various times, considerable !
periods of conversation without !
business.
Sometime? farmers succeed, but j
» usually they must leave the farm I
to do it.
Benjamin N. Duke, who died
recently in his Fifth Avenue house j
in New York, began as a farmer, j
working with his brother, James i
Duke, on their father’s farm. They,
grew tobacco, started a small fac
tory, introduced cigarette making j
machinery, and made hundreds of
millions. And. farmers, note this: i
they bossed the middle man in
stead of being bossed by him. I
Ask Mr.' Hill of the American
Tobacco Company or Mr. Belt of
Lorillard's how that is done.
American farmers have their
troubles, farmers in Japan have
worse oner.
When our farmers complain
Government at least MAKES
PROMISES.
When thousands of Japanese
peasants marched to express dis
satisfaction. forty were shot dead
and many woui\ded.
An intoxicated lady told the
judge her trouble was due to an
alcohol rub. She had swallowed
» nothing. Doctors said it was just
. possible, the judge excused her.
A gentleman, very drunk, led
in by the policeman, told the
judge, “My mistake was eating
raisins while drinking ice cream
soda.” They let him go.

Mr. L .B. Durham, of Kenly
is probably the champion egg
eater of Johnston county.
While in the store of J. W.
Woodard and Brother in
Kenly Saturday night, Mr.
Durham stated that he could
eat fifty hen eggs. When his
word was doubted and the
eggs set before him, he fell
to with a will and before
thirty minutes had passed he
had oaten the last morsel on
the dish. Among the eye-wit

“Kiwanis does build in a ma

Bill Introduced By
Representative Mc
Lean Would C u t
School Tax To 40c
RALEIGH. Jan. 24.—A measure
proposing a state-wide eight
months public school term, which,
in connection with the adminis
tration proposal to increase the
gasoline tax to 5 cents for county
road maintenance would reduce ad
valorem taxes practically one
half, was laid before the joint leg
islative education com mat tee yes
terday by Representative A. I).
MaeLean, "f Beaufort, chairman
of the House committee.
Representative MacLean intro
duced his bill proposing the eight
month'* term in the House yester
day morning. It crashed unexpect
edly into an atmosphere grown
nearly calm about matters of in
creasing the Constitutional six
months’ term since Governor
Gardner's inaugural utterance
flatly against increasing the state
wide term at this time. Coming
from Mr. Mac-Lean added another
surprise, as the Beaufort Assem
bly man, known as a conserva
tive, was regarded as opposed to
the eight-months’ term.
Has Been Opposed.
r.xipja-mmjjf ms position. Mr.
Mat I,can said that he hacome
around in favor of the longer
term after long consideration
which had made it ap-parent to
him that there was only half the
relief from local taxes in a six
months’ term aided by an equali
zation fund operative under the
present system as there was to
ho found in#an eight-months* term
under provisions of his bill.
Suggests Tax Sources.
Although provision for financing
the longer term was not set forth
m his hill, Representative Mac
l.ean suggested that the nine
million dollars required could he
raised easily by a 2 per cent con
sumer's tax on light bills, a ?1
tax of automobile drivers, increase
of certain income tax brackets
itiul more strict collection, raising
franchise tax on power companies,
mid if necessary a sales tax on
theatre admissions and soft
drinks.
It was estimated that the state
equalizing fund would have to be
doubled to take rare of the eight
months' term. It is tixe-d at
000,000 in the budget on a six
months’ basis, but Representative
Mac Lean figured that it could be
rut from ten to nine millions by
economics under state direction of
expenditures.
The bill provides for a maximum
•10 cents tax for schools in all
counties, the remainder of the
costs of maintenance to be sup
plied from the state fund. Mr.
Mac Lean said that his bill would
provide an important step toward
the goal that should bo sought,
state operation of all public
schools.
