Jones grew up in Chicago, where his father, one of the most noted min isters 6f the country, was pastor oi All Souls Church for forty years. A a boy Jones began his newspaper ca reer by selling Chicago dailies during the anarchists' riots in 1884. When he had S9O saved up, he decided to see the world. The boy of ten took hi. savings and went to Indianapolis. There he examined the state house, inspected the soda fountains and re lu ned hums with a full report. An he's been reporting on places and it. - stitutions and men ever since. Jones was educated in the Univer sities of Chicagg and Wisconsin, but before entering oollege he hail work ed as kitchen boy on a government pi lot boat on the Gulf of Mexico; as an apprentice cheese-maker and farm hand. He studied law in Chicago, acquir ed two legal degrees, took a turn at being a cowboy in Nevada and then decided to be "a writer. During his eleven years of maga zine work Jones made journeys of in vestigation and research that carried him more than 25,000 miles. He saw America first hand—its cities, its towns, its farms, its indutries. In 1911 Jones bought the Wisconsin State Journal. When the war broke out, he wanted to get into the fi ht- j ing, but President Wilson told him lie would render his best service to the pauntry by staying with his paper in Wisconsin where German propaganda fought a fight against disloyalty that 51 MILLIONS A YEAR LOST HY N. C. FARMERS ON BAD SEED A million dollars is a staggering sum to the common run of folks, i>' fortune such as is amassed by only a chosen few of the earth. Multiply this million by fifty-one, tack on,an other $814,988 for good measure, and you have u close estimate of the vast wealth that annually slips thru the fingers of North Carolina faiii . by the failure to plant improved .seed Consider the case of cotton. The average yield for the State with the strains generally planted is 433 lbs. of lint qptton per acre. By using the varieties originated, or found and im proved, by the plant breeders of Division of Agronomy the yield ol lint cotton per acre has been mlaed to 534 pounds, a difference ii of the improved strains of 101 pi Translate this increased yield #in£ terms of the entire cotton crop und we have 160,591,000 pounds of lint with a corresponding increase of 150, v 691 tons of seed. At the average price paid for cotton during the ten year period 1911-1921, which was 17 1-2 cents, this increased yield is worth $26,353,425, with an added s(V,oO«,:>;tt for the seed. Take corn. The average yield per acre in favor of improved seed over unimproved varieties is 5.1 bushels, totalling 15,115,200 bushels for the en tfi« a-easfr value (Urn >ear average price) of $15,344,794.

C., Aug. 8.-—Dr. Wood ! row Wilson, ex-president of the U- j nited States and former student at Davidson College near here, today ac cepted an -appointment as member of the Greater Davidson Campaign Com mittee, according to the announcement of Malcolm Lockhard, director of the campaign to raise $600,000 fur the expansion and endowment of the Pres byterian institution. The committee of which Df. Wllflon is • a member ir organized to present the needs of Da vidson to its friends and alumni, to build "A Greater Davidson for i Greater Southern Presbyterian Churcl Dr. Wilson has long retained t great interest in Davidson College j where he entered as a Freshman In 1873, under the name of Thomai Wood row Wilson that he used through J out his earlier years until he finall.v dropped the "Thomas" from his name While president he once visited the in Hititution, and the college records show that he took a prominent part in col lege activities. Dr. Wilson was sev enteen years old upon entering Da vidson, and it was here that he made his firrst public .addresses and(T)ook the interest in political affairs of his country that characterized his later life. Rev. Joseph R. Wilson, father of the famous president and prominent I'iiishytarian minister of Wilmington N. C., was a member of the Board of Trustees of Davidson for a number of years, and was responsible for his son's matriculation at the institution While at Davidson Dr. Wilson lived in Room 13, Chambers Hall and in later Ufa he has often joked about "13" being his lucky number, Room 13 in Chambers Hall being the first of a number of tifie.) ti at "13" was connected with hi 3 Hfe. When Cham bers Hall was recently destroyed by fire Dr. Wilson wrotj that he hoped with all his heart "that funds can be raised to rebuild it,' and one of the objects of the present ca/:,.aigr is the rebuilding of the historic old hall. The other object of the movement is to increase the endowment of the col lege to provide more teachers. He was calling on the daughter of the household. He stepped into the next room where her father was seat ed. "Mr. Jones - - ah, that is, can I -er -will you -" *,—, "Why, yes, my boy; you may have her." "How's that? Have whom?" "My daughter, of course. You want to marry her, don't you ?" "No, sir* I just wanted to find out if you would endorse my note for $100." "Certainly not. Why I hardly know you.".

An analysis of the relative decline of leaf and manufactured tobacco since 1919 will disclose the unfair prices which the fa*iner has been re ceiving for hie tobacco. Leaf tobacco averaged 47 cents on the Sandford market in 1919, 22 cents in 1920, and 24 cents in 1921. The manufacturer's price of Apple plug tobacco in 1920 was 80 cents per pound, and in 1921 72 cents, the pres ent price being 72 cents. Eighty cents was the peak of high price for Apple tobacco. Other brands have declined in about the same proportion. The manufacturer's price on Camel cigarettes in 1920, when manufactur ed tobacco was at the peak of high prices, was $8 per thousand, in 1921 $6.90. The present price is $6.90. Other brands have declined in the same proportion. Leaf tobacco has declined 51 per since 1919, while plug tobacco has declined only 10 per cent and cigarettes only 12 1-2 per cent. Why has manufactured tobacco de ceased only 11 per cent while leaf tobacco has decreased 51 per cent ? Is it fair for the manufacturers to get 89 per cent of the peak of high prices while they pay the farmer only ■l9 per cent of the peak of high prices? Based on the price that has been and is now being maintained for man ufactured tobacco, had not the fanner ought to receive 89 per cent as much for his tohucco as he received in 1919? The query, why do merchants want to become connected with the asso ciation, is ridiculous. Ask the average merchant to com pare his business during the period when tobacco averaged 47 cents with his business during the period when it averaged 22 cents. We have heard the suggestion that some time bad when prices were better than now that some man made money on to bacco—that he cultivated it with hit wife and children and it didn't cos him anything to raise. This is an extremely absurd idea. Quite a num her of farmer's wives ami childrei. help them cultivate their crops. If such a fanner will figure thi worth of his land, cost of fertiliser farm implements and depreciation am his stock, and then figure a salary for himself, his children who assist him, and also his wife who gets u| before day in the morning, feeds tli chickens, milks the cows and then re turns to the house und cooks break fast, deans up the house, rock the cradle aitd kicks the dog out of tie house all at the same time, and who after breakfast, dresses the little totf und gets them off to school, und then repairs to the. field to assist her hus band, comes in late in the afternoon milks the cows, cooks supper, wushe> the children, spanks 'em all aroun and puts 'em to bed, he will find out how much money he was making evei when prices were ut the highest peak St list KIBE FOB YOUR HOME NEWSPAI'EB Tri State Tobacco Grower.

They are as fol lows: Project 157 A—12.41 miles from Hamilton to Williamston and project 157B—from Hamilton to the Halifax County line, which is 12.36 miles. The first project requites: 8 acres clearing; 3 acres grubbing; 43,400 cubic yards common excava tion; 4,500 cubic yards drainage ditches; 18,500 cubic yards borrow; 804 linieal feet 18 inch reinforced con crete or C. 1. pipe; 726 lineal feet 24 inch reinforced concrete or C.

M., August 30, at whic'i time they will be opened anil the work will begin promptly. It will be no ticed that the distance from Hamilton to Williaanston is less than 100 > arils fuither than from Hamilton to Hdi fax county line and that it is further seen that the amount of work and ma terials is almost the same on each job. PROHIBITION AND BONUS The public, as a general thing, does not have much confidence in the news paper poll, but when a poll is insti tuted which catches any considerable proportion of the population of a state or section, it must be tyiken as re flecting public opinion in correspond ing measure. The Literary Digest is engaged in the delightful pastime of "polling" the country on two issues— prohibition and the bonus. It is get ting up into the proportion of a 850,- 000 vote and on the Volstead law it is significant that not a voice is rais ed in favor of the return to open sa loons. On the contrary, opinion is dead set against any such eventuality* And while there fs division in the mat ter of modification of the Volstead Act, the vote for repeal of the law is feeble. If the poll as conducted by The Digest means anything it means that the country is standing by pro hibition, the differences b?ing on the best methods of "laying" the law and enforcing it. Public sentiment is u nanimous on the one proposition that U to forever remain a saloonless coun try. On the matter of the bonua the coun try is so equally divided, if we are to believe the poll, that the politicians are more than ever at sea.—Charlotte Observer.

MOONSHINE CAUSES ANOTHER SHOOTING SCRAPE Surslay during a great gathering at Hickory Grove Church near the Bear Trap Mill a row was raised in which the Brown Brothers were the active leaders. Haywood Brown proceeded to maul his brother Sylvester with knucks or Bome such weapon. After this affray Haywood got in lub cal ami left soon to be overtaken by his brother Sylvester; the chase Sylvester was reinforced by his broth er Kader. They overtook the first car and passed it turning across the road. At this point the trouble was renewed. Sylvester shot his brother Haywood, the bull entering' his side. Dr. Saunders was called to his aid but was pnable to locate the bullet. At the time of the shooting and af ter, his chances for recovery were fairly «good. Sheriff Koberson went to search for Sylvester, but at pres ' ent he has not been able to locate him. The Hickory Grove Church,.has been the scene of many big negro fights. Only about three years ago these same Brown Brothers engaged the Harris boys in a general fight, when their father, George Brown, commanded them to stand aside and let a man come. As the result of this daring attack he waß shot and died within a few weeks. Another of the brothers was shot and killed in Richmond re cently and an uncle, Stuart Brown, was also shot and killed. They seem to be a headstrong bunch but at date date their battles have all been Water loos. There is little doubt but that liquor played the big part in tHis affair. , Farmers, remember the date Wednes day, August Ith at 4 p. m. at the court hi>u>-e.

Railroads Make Big Profits In 1921 But Fail t To Move Rotting 1922 Crops • By ROBERT FULLER (Special to The Enterprise) The railroads of the United States must be curbed quickly. They must be forced to stop manip ulations of facts and abandon propa ganda policies which have beCn luuz enly practiced for the last lour years. "The ruthless policies oi the railroads are tying this nation into tcoiwnn c knots so fast thut within a few week.' they will brintc agriculture, industry and business of all kinds to a dean stop. Agriculture is in a most serious sit uation right now. Even though dras tic methods were immediately employ ed the. c will bo a loss suffered by the farmers in trying to move the twelw billion dollar crops now into thu har vest. Car Shortage VVas Known Traffic Manager C. It. llutchiiigs ol the Traffic Department of the Auieri can Farm llureau Federation, after in vestigution early in June, and before the strike went into effect, estimated a heavy car shortage this fall. The American Railway Association stuted on June lb there were 332,- t»81 cars needing repairs, 2tfH,300 OI which required heavj repairs. Since then the strike has paralyzed con struction and repairs of all kinds. The association also stated that the per centage of cars in bad order on June 1 was 15 per cent. These same figure.-, compared with thfese of the Interstate Commerce Commission show that there was u big backward movement of repairs of freight equipment from April to June. This, too, in the face of the fact that the railroads knew from Department of Agriculture re ports that the biggest crops of years would have to be marketed this fall. This policy of neglect of vital roll ing stock by the railroads is only in line with the financial camouflage shoved down the public's throat by a' clever a bunch of tirtistj as ever drew press-agents' salaries. That "Hard-Time" Talk in other words all the "hard time" railroad talk we have heard was cook ed up in,a great propaganda depart ment and served at bit alfcfast, dinner and supper for the last four years— in fact ever since the government turned the rouds back to the private owners after the war. The result of this is, that nine per sons out of ten in the Uiiitetl Stafi® POSTAL SAVINGS CEKTII IC VI I S STILL VERY I'Ol'l I. \li As evidence of returning prosperity and the accumulation of savings and the willingness and desire of l'ia pub lic to invest surplus funds in a sale and ane manner, Howard T. Cree, di lector of the Government Savings Oi gunization of the Fifth Fedeia' Re ceive District, has informed Uie i >cal postmaster that the people of thi -» dis trict have purchused in the lilt si: months of this year Treasury Savings Certificates to the amount ol.f l, 11 l,'»iC This is mole than live ami one-half times the amount sold during the same perioil last year, and represents u per capita investment of 4K cent, for every man, woman and child in the district. Distribution of these savings cei tiflcates. largely through post ol lire", among the severul states comprising the district is us follows: Washington D. C., |466,000, per capita $1.14; W. Virginia, $1,130,440, per capita $.02 Virginia $763,034 per capita North Carolina $720,62 X, per capita 30c; Maryland $172,253, per capita, 18c; South Carolina $100,477, per cap ita, 12c. The United States Treasury through the Post Office Department is enlisted in an effort to stimulate regular sav ings and safe investment on the part of the American people in order to re accumulate the wealth consumed ami destroyed during the war. I'ost Of flees throughout the country are offer ing citizens the facilities of the Von tal Savings System for u deposit of funds and Treasury Savings Certi ftcatea for the investment of funds, the latter increasing 25 per cent in Ave years, or 8 1-2 per cent if re deemed prior to maturity. Tobacco farmers don't fail to at tend the meeting at the court house, Wednesday, August Oth at 4 o'clock. If all tobacco fanners in the as sociation come, good prices are as sured, if part stay away then the fight is twice as hard for those who do come and if all stay away then there is no flght at all.
