SIX PAGES TODAY NUMBER 26 CUCUMBER MARKE1 FOR SMI1HFIELB Farmers Are Showing Consider able Interest In Planting Cu. cumbers; Harvey Boney Think? Smithfield Would Be Ideal Market About 200 farmers in the vicin ity of Smithfield have signed up with <dr. Harvey Boney to plant cucumbers, one-half to two acres each being the limit. Mr. Boney is desirous of signing up about 200 more farmers, one-half to one acre each. The more farmers co-operating in this project, the better the results will be. The bigger the market, the more f.o.b. buyers can be brought in, and it is thought that 400 acres will be easily planted and that a big market will be established at Smithfield. Mr. Boney expects to run a packing shed at the A. C. I*, railroad, and all cucumbers will be properly graded and sold f.o.b. for the highest dollar. According to Mr. Boney, cucum bers should be planted by April 5, and not later than April 10. Rows should be 4 feet apart, and seeds should be planted in hills 4 feet apart (3 to 5 seeds per hill) 1 pound per acre. The same ground should be planted second time (10 days later' in between every hill, for protection against Easter freeze; 8-4-4 commercial fertilizer should be used. 800 Pounds per acre. Land should be selected which is reasonably heavy—not too sandy. Land which is moist (but not wet), especial ferred to dry clay hills or sandy ridges. Clark’s Special cucumbers arc prime favorites with practically all North Carolina growers for marketing purposes. First, it is a good shipper, and will hold its color and firmness when handled over long distances. Second, it has a very attractive green color, being the darkest green cucumber on the market today. Third, it is uniform in length, running from 8 to ,10 inches, and smooth in appearance, having very few spines. On account of its small seed pockets, it is of excellent qaulity for slicing. Mr. Boney thinks Smithficld has the best background in East ern North Carolina for a cucum ber market. The shipping facili ties are ample, Smithfield being located on the A. C. L. railroad running between the Florida Keys and the nation's capital. Smith field is also at the junction of highways 10 and 22 running from north to south and east to west. Mr. Boney also thinks the soil is well adapted to cucumbers, since it is wonderfully productive and easily tilled. Mr. Boney thinks it will pay 500 Johnston county farmers to plant an acre each in cucumbers. If they should fail to find a mar ket. it would force them to follow the cucumber crop with some kind of forage—corn, peas, or soy beans. Johnston county could produce enough feedstuffs to feed all tile stock, as well as produce enough vegetables to supply a considerable portion of the state. Any farmer, white or colored, who has not already signed up to plant one-half or an acre of cucumbers to assist in establish ing a money crop at Smithfield. is invited to see Mr. Boney at Hood's drug store this week. The time for planting for Junc-July delivery is at hand. W. J. HINES PASSES AWAY A sad death occurred in Cleve land township Friday when Mr. W. J.

Josephus Daniels, former sec retary of the navy, in an editorial for the Saturday News and Ob server. declares that “Mr. Ras kob owes It to the party -to pay the debt he created against it" and resign his connection with the national Democratic executive committee. "The Democratic party,” he continued, “demands, or the best Portion of it. that the chairman of the committee shall have no alliances that are harmful to the common good, or that will work injury to party success as long as he (Raskob' remains, millions of voters will believe the Demo cratic party is wet."

PRAISES NEW ROAD TO NEWTON GROVE What is so fine as an early drive over our North Carolina roads on a fair day with the promise of spring in the air and over the fields! Such was last Sunday morning with M. T., Jr., at the wheel, as we moved on Clinton, the capital of Samp son, to fill the pulpit of Rev. W. G. Farrar, who was away with Rev. J. J. Boone in a meeting at Erwin. Wc boast much of our concrete highways, but they are not one whit ahead of No. 23, the new road of clay and gravel from Smithfield to Newton Grove, ft is smooth, straight and in viting. All that section of the state before the day of good roads was much isolated, but that day has passed. Sherman met Johnston's forces in the last battle of the Civil War at Ben tonville in the edge of Johnston. The spot little visited by the out side world has these last days been made easily accessible. I could but think of the rapid transit of the present compared with the days when Sherman passed through that section on his way from Fayetteville to Goldsboro. Markers have been placed on the field and that will more and more be linked with the Bennet Memorial—just west of Durham—which marks the place of surrender.—M. T. P., in Christian Advocate. HAY IN LENOIH 1 t Kinston, Mar. 31—Farmers near this city will lop thousands of dollars from their hay bill next winter. Hay is being grown on a number of farms for the first time.

Three corn and hay contests for Lenoir county farmers are being con ducted by the chamber of com merce here. Oat and rye yields this year will be much the heav iest in the section’s history. Watch the date on your label and renew in time so as not to miss an issue. EDUCATION BOARD IN SESSION HERE Adoptf Resolutions of Apprecia tion For W. G.

LOCAL MERCHANTS PLAN TO ORGANIZE A number of Smithfield mer chants and other business men met in the commissioners room of the courthouse Thursday eve ning and discussed plans for forming some sort of merchants association for this city.

D. W. Peterson presided over the meeting, and called upon J.j A. Narron to report for the com mittee previously appointed to make suggestions concerning or ganization. No officers were elect ed at this time, but a future meeting was proposed when a full attendance of merchants would choose officers and perfect ! plans for a co-operative adver tising program.

Slack Sug gests Mixture To Poison In sects Found On Plant Beds. By J. B. SLACK Many farmers are reporting se vere insect damage to tobacco plant beds. These insects, if not controlled, will cause quite a shortage of tobacco plants when transplanting time comes. The writer has visited several beds where it is reported that a cer tain type of fly was causing damage to the plants. On investi gation it was found that this fly, which somewhat resembles a large gnat or mosquito, is doing no damage whatever. The actual damage is being done by the to bacco flea beetle or flea bug. Most growers, on seeing a number of these flies around the tobacco bed immediately come to the con clusion that the fly is doing the damage, but after close inspec tion it will be found that the damage is actually being done by the flea bugs. These flea bugs can be con trolled by dusting the plant bed ; with a mixture as foliows: Paris ■ green. 1 pound; arsenic of lead. 5 pounds. These two poisons should be thoroughly mixed be fore applying, to the plant bed. Remove the canvas and apply this mixture at the rate of one half pound per one hundred square yards. If a liquid spray is preferred, dissolve one and one half pounds of the above mixture in fifty gallons of water. In mix ng small quantities dissolve one and one-half to two tablespoons ful to three gallons of water. It is important that only the two poisons mentioned above be ised in controlling the flea beetle, [t has been found that this mix ture of these poisons will give control better than anything else. Do not substitute calcium of ar senate or any other material for Paris green and arsenate of lead.

ELECTION BOARD' The state board of elections has! appointed the members of the j county boards of elections. A tele- ! gram directed to the state board | from Charles A. Hines, manager I for Senator Simmons, urged that I in the appointment, one Demo- • crat favorable to Senator Sim- i mons, and one favorable to J. W. j Bailey be placed on each county j board. This was not done, how- j ever, since the request was re- j ceived after State Chairman Mull j had transmitted to the board his recommendations, and since the request was received just on the eve of the hour fixed by law for the appointments. Judge J. Crawford Biggs, chair- | man of the state board of elec tions, states that he does not know how the Democrats recom- . mended by Mr. Mull stand in! reference to the senatorial con-1 test, but he is satisfied that the j recommendations were made with j an eye single to the good of the Democratic party and with no j purpose to aid any candidate in I the primary.

Scott, of Selma. New Telephone Directory Telephone subscribers in Selma, Clayton and Smithfleld are now using a new directory. Mr. D. F.
