NATED AGAINST
News despatches from Washington
a few days ago carried the brief in
qua Association had appealed to the
Interstate Commerce Couiini»:,sion a
gainst discrimination against them by
the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad and
other railroads in the matter of fares
and 11 aiispoi tilt ion of baggage. A inn
people hero are "much interested in
the Chautauqua, and this-season have
through this splendid enterprise en
joyed some unsually fine entertain
merits, The "Enteiprise" takes pleas
ure in presenting the facas back ol
the action referred to to its readers.
In Railroad tariff, Chautauqua is
classed frith theatrical companies and
circuses, and these schedules call foi
the free traiispliltatiou of baggage
when there ure-lib or more persons in
■ the company traveling with it. This
' covered virtually every theatrical
IroupM and circus. Hie baggage is
thus cat l ied free even thoug,h handled
' daily for companies making one-night
stands.
The Chautauqua plan calls. I'm the
shipment of its baggage and equip
meat ahead, and the ilivihoii ol >1
' entertaining forces into groups which
vary llie VnTeffaiiiment eacb^''TtjnC'ftTT"
it  'hautaoqua -eastin ot live days and
night in addition to the' execotivi
fotces, there are at least •>.'! enter
tainei ot r l»o' and a hail times the
' liilllin'ililii tlieat I icat liuinbi I, .and the
baggage is handled approv itivalely one
each week iiisti-ad of every day, thoie
by requiting About one fifth the sei
vice given the theatiic.'il troupes.
Because the huggagc is not caitied
with the company , the railroad make
1 an additional charge (of Unity i>
cent a mile to move it Chautauqua
I does not object to. tills, even Ihoirgli
I - - jtis t it-t-- w ottlil s«'i-to to tt-i|ti Hi
lls free transportation. But what
Chautauqua does most vigorously oh
v .ject to' i.- the fact that in addition
to this charge, it must purchase ten
' passenger tickets ill spite of the fact
i that this 'many more than are need
i, ed for those (vlio travel in charge of
- the baggage. Chautauqua believes
I that when it pay* the lluity-six cent;
1 a mile lot baggage trunsportatii n
and- full fate foi all of its forces,
whether with the baggage or not I
I is doing all that can be honestly and
■ justly expected, and that the requii"
- merit to purchase tickets it does not
• need is an outrageous imposition.
i 'This excessive charge amount; to
f thousands pf dollars ill the course ol
I a season arid in much more than Ch:tu-
II tauqua can stand. It therefore l ues

PRICE OUTLOOK
VERY UNCERTAIN
We hern many answers to the above
' questions and so far as wo have heard
|no farmer has tiny information on
I this subject, more than a guess. We
| have been led to believe that tlie world
I i tluuded with both cotton and tobac
Ico mid would he ovi'i'iuii with pea
j nuis just as soon as digging time
-comes. There is some douln about'
the truth o{ any a.id all of these
ate now saying that there is going to
I i.e a cotton shortage very soon and
tin- outlook now is that tli -re wilt l>.
it lulu hundred million pound short
age in tobacco. Aml why should v>a
have tto hopes? Hood clops will sejl
lot lair prices even this year, one of
the mo't importa.it things to, do is to

THE SIGN-UP CAMPAIGN
FOR COITON GROWERS
With North Carolina cotton grow
ers Hearing their goal in the sign
up for cooperative marketing, it is
probable „|hat some of the larger cot
ton producing counties will not be in
cluded in the organization the first '
seasun,according to Campaign Mana 1
jjre! A. W. Swaiin of Kaleigh. '
Glowers i nthese counties yet have 1
• time to put on membership drives be- 1
lore September 1, but once the goal
of UIKi.tHIO bales is reached intensive 1
campaigns will not be arranged from
the headquarters office.
11 rowers Jiving in counties where
local interest is not sufficiently a- ■
wake to put on a real sign up cam
paign may find themselves on the •
out.Mde once the cotton marketing as- i
soii.ition is formed and will have to i
wait until another season to obtain i
the benefits that will be assured to i
all member* when organized. I
"It is now certain", says Mr. Swain i
"that North Carolina growers who i
have already signed up for cooper- i
ative marketing will never have to i
Mump' another crop of cotton on the i
market after this fall. Their cotton
will be sold in an orderly, intelligent
manner and because of the waste in 
the present dumping system, coop- I
[members will receive better prices
than growres outside the marketing
_ a? -octalurn." i
("AMI'S DISCONTINI'KI)
John W. Weeks, Secretary of War
has announced the discontinuance of
all Army Camps except four. Those
to be kept intact are in New Jersey,
Kentucky, Texas an! Washington
This decision gives a right fair distri
bution, one in the north east, north
west, south and center. Camp llragg
in North Carolina and Camp Jackson
in South Carolina will both be aband
oned soon. The Government recently
purchased 135,(MM) acres of land f r (
a rifle range and the Cumberland
County people were hopeful that Hrag
would be selected for that purpose
i but the War Department took a ilif
f ferent view. The best policy is to hold
the land, think of peace and keep out
of war.

m.-ius lot the lutrue food of their
stock. The preparation iheuld be I,
follows:
hirst break the soli deep, .*ecyad
oioudcast all available barnyard ina
Hire and then double cut with
.uirrow twice. Fourth, broadcast twy
ions of agricultural lime per acre,
.larrow three times with mmything
a a trow going the oposit* way each
nun-. Then let it stand until tbf first
good rain in September at which time
run the smoothing harrow over it
tw li e, harrowing opposite ways as
Del ore. By tying a brick to the outside
coiner of the harow one will be en
ul>lel to mark off the land in streaks
the width dsird to sow by hand. Sow
each streak twice in ordw to get a
uniform stand, mix the seed to be
sown per acre with one bushel of
dirt from some good permanent pas
ture and one bail of cotton seed meal.
In order to know whether) you are
sowin ((regularly or not count the
narrow .streaks and weigh your mix

i KAII.KOAD CROSSINGS
Several of the streets of the town
crossed by the railroad including
Washington, llaughton and Kim are
so rough that in driving over them
with a car except in the very lowest
speed one is liable to break a spring;
burst a tire or rain a bock. The cro%-
rings consist only of ties thrown
down and the big steel rails laid a
cross the street.
• The town officers should reqnire
the railroad to put the crossings in
such condition that traffic will not be
hindered anil subject to damage.
KeveraLjjeople have suffered loss by
injury to cars hnd other vesicles.
