Kafbigh.— A special from Asheville says that the fight which wah started there at the meeting of the directors of the Great Western North Carolina Association against the proposed sale by the Rtatd of the Hlantyre experi mental farm in Transylvania county is still going on and promises to be prolific of results before It Is over. The matter was brought to the atten tion of the meeting by A. Cannon, the member of the state board of agri culture from the tenth district, who said that the board was considering the sale or the property and a final disposition of the matter would be made at the meeting In June. He asked for a resolution of protest against such action and this was unanimously voted. The farm 1b a horticultural farm and Us main purpose Is to make expe riments in tho fruit growing possi bilities of this sectitffi. Mr. Cannon stated that he was bitterly opposed to its being sold for the reason that It was accomplishing great things for the western section of the state and if It wa« *old the work would necessarily come to an end. Ho said further that if the farm should be abandoned it. would be generally un derstood throughout the country, even though It were not true, that fruit growing in this section had been abandoned and that It was his opin ion that tho United States weather bureau would abandon tho Idea of establishing local bureaus for the aid of the fruit growers. Ho considered that the Helling of the property would be a body blow to the fruit growing Industry of this section. Greensboro Wants Warehouse. The bonrd of directors of the cham ber of commerce held a conference here, vtyh President Alexander and J. Z. Green of the State Farmers' fTnton relative to the establishment of the union's proposed half-mllllon-dollar central warehouse at Greensboro. Tho warehouse will bo eroded 111 on? of the largest cities of tho state, and bids or propositions are being sought hy the organization's ofllclals before I deciding on the location. After tho I central warehouse Is located, the j purpose is to locate smaller ware houses to aid in the great plan of eco nomical distribution. From here the committee proceeded to Charlotte, having already had conferences with New Bern, Raleigh, Durham and Wli j mlngton business bodies and citizens. j May Develop Into Law Suits. People residing along and near Buf- I falo creek are up In arms against the city of Greensboro, and it is apparent that the disturbance caused by a city sewer outlet is going to develop into a wholesale batch of civil suits. It jis reported Unit forty-live fanners have become parties to proceedings which have not yet become official, I though It is admitted that counsel | have requested summons and filed bonds for same with the clerk of the superior court. K. J. .Justice has been retained by the parties. | Kept Account of What He Stole. Confessing to having stolen more | than >2,000 from his employers, Spach Brothers, Winston-Salem, Uobert L. Southern, US years old, was arrested. A realy remarkable feature of the speculations, which extended over a ueriod of more than eight months, | was that Southern evidently kept in a book a minute account of the amounts he stole, footing them up weekly. The Inrgost amount taken I in any week was S2U! and the small est, $24. [ Fired On Through Mistake. Separate posses of citizens of Wll i mlngton went in different directions In search of two negroes who had gone to the rear of tho postofllce at Hose Hill and demanded entrance of the lady clerk In charge, fired Into each other by mistake for the ne groes and T. W. Fussell and Deland Henderson, well-known citizens of Chat place, were seriously wounded. The wounding of the two of the num ber apparently demoralized the posses and the negroes made good their es cape. Too Much Tims on Prohibtion. Judge C. M. Cook declared that en tirely too much attention is being' given to the enforcement of the pro hibtion law in North Carolina to the neglect of other moral issues which are more Important. The occasion for the remark was the granting of the thirteenth divorce in one week. He declared that only a certain amount of energy was expended in uplifting-tho moral standards of the community and that too large a per centage of this energy was being ex pended on prohibtion. k AGREE ON A PRIMARY DATE Sanatoria!

The "Rock Hill pain" will not be adopted here unless taken ap by outside influences, many of tho leading farmer of this county being of the opinion that the action taken at tho farmers' convention at Wil son, recommending thut one acre of food crops be planted to every aire of cotton is vastly better and will work more uniformly to the good of I the agricultural interests than tho I Bock Hill plan. > Big Fire Docs Much Damage.
