They used nice bait and covered the point of the hook with much cunning. They come to folks, yes business folks ,and ask "them i> they do not want to get into the game of protection. The report shows hie* of the banks of the county apyiuvn. those crafty resolutions, which is very regrettable. It is never"iTght to job"' I ones with, a wrong principle even though it may appear to -offer some financial advantages. The burden id the tariff argument for fifty years has been the argument put out by the great manufacturing interests claim in)? that it would help labor, ili have kept lal>or following along' in these promises for this entire period. Hut, alas, where is labor today? A poor and dependent as ever. Where is rapital today? Clothed in. political power, the libe of- which bias never l»een surpassed but few times since the history of man has been written •Nothing has done more to centralize wealth, fatten the few and milk lly many than the American Protective Tariff. Of course they don't need the South to help them now, They know tlieii business. They know that this sys tem can stand for only a season. They know that a new fight will come up and that they will go down in defeat Consequently they are entering new territory. They ure making their up peal to the Southern business maq, and they are throwing out much ''pot tage." They are seeking the birth right of the people in the hope that when the battle line is next drawn they may have many recruit--, from the, ranks of the enemy of ye.-terycar. They are trying to get the house ill viiled" against itself. ■ We should never lose sight of th fact that practically all of our pan* . and hard timeshavo been thrust' upn us by the baron* of.

SUBSCRIBE TO THE ENTERPRISE GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY THAT IS BEING WASTED The following is taken from an edi torial in the Washington Daily News of the 25th: "Washington is the logical mar ket for all farmers in Heaufort, llyile and Martin counties. We can make this part one of the best in eastern North Carolina, if we will all work to that end. The largei our markets arc, the more we will be advertised. Then let us all get busy." Well, we commend The Dail News,, Washington has the right to buy our farm products and sell us our good-?. Yer, -she--hits -the- right t-o absorb us;- dry us up and blow us away. And by tin' way, sum eol' our people are help ing her out by sitting down and growl ing, complaining, cussing and fuming about dull times, while the money folks of our county ure oing to Wash ington and spending their money. It '• is a common sight to see a large num ber of Martin county farmers in Wash ington every day and the merchant; may be sure tlia tthey are spending ; their money. They do their time trade in their own county but go away to buy for cash (they say it is cheaper). '""Beaufort county is now building ; great road into the heart of our cout. ty and if we don't stir ourselves, ere long we will be forced to shut up ti shop and our only amusement w ill he watching the eager thrones as they riileJiy. Oh yes, we can turn the tide! whenever we exert the proper fore. - for us, theyare loyal, | they will stick by ua, all thing ing equal, such as roads, prices, ar | coinniodations, invitations, pleasant words, smiles and a glad hand. Let us wake up. WHAT AUDI T PRICKS? Editor of The Enterprise, Williamston, N. ('., Dear Sir: . I have an opportunity to sell my to bacco ungraded and know nothing a hout the price. Please lot me know if you have any information about prices for this year's crop. i Yours truly, Jame-viUe, N. ('., Align-1 'JI, l!l'.!l Ails* er Mr. - .lainesville, N. Dear Sir:— Voiir letter of inquiry to hand. I know nothing of the price of tobacco for the coining season. That is some, thing that will lie fixed by a very few men and they never ■ toil- .us. any thi In; iu advance. The people who raise to bacco' have nothing whatever to do with making or miming the price ol it. It is said that there is a supply of old tobacco on hand, whicl is extremely doubtful. The present crop of all types of to bacco from Carolina Hirght Leaf to Kentucky Hurley i.- short, first from a reduced acreage, second from tin extreme dry weather, only a few places having good crops. 1 should be very cautious about selling too soon. Willi reasonable business conditions, prices should be good on good grade , If your party wants to buy lie ha. some evidence that prices will be good or that you have very good tobacco Generally the best thing to do with a crop of tobacco is grade, it at home amrput if'on the -warehouse floor.

SAUNDERS LESLIE FOWDEN' SUBSCRIBE TO THE ENTERPRISE IF YOU WANT QUICK RESULTS USE A #ANT AD IN THE ENTERPRISE ESTABLISHED 1898 50 PER CENT SWEET ' POTATO CROP LOST ; IN N. C. EVERY YEAR 1 Statistics show that 50 per cent of the potato crop in North Carolina is ■ lost every year due to inadequate cur ing and storage conditions. This loss lias been reduced to less than two per cent in those sections of the state where curing and storage plants have been established. The l". S. depart ment of Agriculture has perfected a sweet potato storage house that is used generally H u over the South with almost perfect results. A large house of this type has been built at ! Kocky Mount in Nash county to take care of the potato crop this year. Nash county also has quite a number of • smaller houses of different types. 1 Mush county has the record of being the first county in North Carolina to organize a cooperative marketing as ' socintion for sweet potutoes. The large house at Kocky Mount belongs to this association. ' Since the boll weevil will soon be here and since there is so much inter est in sweet potatoes in this and other ' counties, the Extension division is planning for a tour of farmers to Nash county on August 29th to inspect ' the large storage plant at Kocky Mount. The tour will start from New Bern on Monday morning the 29th, ' arriving at Ireenville about 10 o'clock A. M. At Greenville the delegation will he met by other farmers fiu«i 1 -Onslow, Jones, Lenoir, Pitt and Beau-' 1 fort counties. From (jreenville the delegation will proceed to Kocky Mount. Monday afternoon will be ' spent inspecting the storage house at Itoeky Mount and possibly a number of smaller houses on yie furmt) of *. Nash county ,if the farmers wish to see them. From Kocky Mount the delegation »ill go on to Italeigh to attend tliei Farmers' Convention which begins on Tuesday. County agents should fur rush farmers will all information in connection with the Parmer's Con yen tion. Before attempting storage on a coin ' nii rcial sci.le, 1 feel that every county agent should educate his fanners in • regard to producing disease-free po tutoes, ami to care for them proper ly.* This will mean that a number of -.mull storage houses wil lhave 'o be ' built over the county before the far ' in,'is gain sufficient experience to go 1 into potato storage on a commercial scale, r- Connty agent Burroughs, District ' Agent E. W. li'aitliei, and the H,cre taryol the Kocky Mount Chamber* of 'Commerce have kindly agreed to as sist in making the i ceasion a success. ' I'leusc have a notice of this tour print ed in your local paper at once, and if ' possible, send me a list offarmers who ' wish to go, not later than Friday of ' this week, l.et me u. n » jou to see every farnte ruiterested in sweet tato storage and get him to go along with the crowd.
