Now Is the Time To Fight
For the first time in recent memory, hidden and
exempted wealth is on the run. It was the voice of
the people that gave them the fright.
The class of property owners that owns real estate,
a mule, and a few cows and hogs has l>een carrying
the burden of taxes, while those holding large quan
tities of wealth represented by other types of prop
erty have not paid their proportion of the taxes.
Fortunately, the McLean school bill is smoking the
hidden treasure out, and if it can be seen by the com
mon folks, then they are going to make something
come to pass, and that thing will be an equalization
of taxes on all kinds of property, which will put taxes
on the property not,paying its proportion, lowering
the rate on property that is now |»ying too much.
Teamwork Needed
We are always criticizing legislators. We should
not; sympathy Is what they need. They generally
want to do right, but too often don't know how. Quite
a bit of evidence of this fact is to be seen .around Ra
leigh at this time.
Too many men want things exactly as they wish
and will not support anything proposed by another,
regardless of its merit.
What is needed is a little teamwork, all pulling to
gether for the same purpose. If an army was to go
into action with every man going his own way, to the
extent that many legislators demand, it could not cap
ture the tadpoles in a dry pool.

Making Poultry Pay
Whether flaying hens are profitable or not depends
largely on the care given them, although breeding is
a fundamental requirement of good layers. But even
the ordinary hen wiH show her gratitude for good treat
ment by a greatly increased yield of eggs, according
to a poultry expert, who says:
"Take the average farm hen, feed and house her
poorly and she will lay only about 70 eggs a year.
Give her a chance on good feed in a good house and
she will produce 140 or more. But take the same
hen and breed her to a pedigreed egg-bred male and
(he pullet resulting will produce from ISO to 200 eggs
st yaar if properly cared for."
~ Under ordinary conditions it is not advised that
the average farmer try to raise his own males for
breeding purposes, because of the great amount of
trouble involved, as well as skill required in breeding.
It is less expensive and far more satisfactory to buy
high class cockerel from profejsional breeders.
i'oultry raising is one of the most profitable of farm
activities if properly conducted, but haphazard meth
ods will result in failure, as in every other undertak
ing. The main thing is to have good hens in the flock
and then treat them right.
A Governor Needed x
The man who invents something fast enough for the
next generation will be the world's wealthiest man
and the hero of the century. The auto,
and electricity are all growing duH and no longer able
to full? satisfy this pleasure-ravenous and gasping
uge; and it looks as if we are going to mope around
in disgust with what pleasures we had a few years
ago, which then looked like they would last forever,
but we are still dissatisfied. What we have doesn't
suit us. We are aH shouting and crying, "Go fast
er" It now looks as if we are even more in need of
a genius than we were when God gave us an Edison,
a Ford, a Bell, a Marconi, and a Wright. The world
seems to be crying, "O Lord, pleasure is what we
want—and now*."
There are those, however, who believe that the
world has lost its balance wheel and has been run
ning too fast already; and what it really needs is to
put on its governor and slow down tu a steady pace.
Why Teach Children To Gamble?
Why teach children to take chances? In some
schools or clubs, certain prizes are raffled off for the
purpose of making money. This may not be wrong
in itseif, and will not hurt most folks. Yet it is
hardly right for one person to pay a dollar for a
chance and lose it. to the fellow who pays one cent
and wins the prize. The trouble comes from the in
fluence it may have on the weaker child who may not
be able to keep the gambling spirit from growing on
him.
Schools and churches have rfo business to enter
raffling games, because they teach principles contrary
to the fundamentals upon which they both stand.

DEAR FARMER
STOP, LOOK AND
LISTEN!
Here is your opportuni
ty to gain in your yield of
tobacco per acre by using
the
FOWLER
CULTIVATOR
which gets the dirt from
middle of the row and
makes a perfect ridge
without cutting off your
feed roots. It has proved
that hilling tobacco in
this way has made a gain
from $25 to SSO per acre.
■
For you know: Whin
you side yoiir tobacco the
last times the feed roots
are cut off, which checks
the growth for a few days.
During this time new feed
roots are formed, which
really causes a second
growth. This second
growth causes your tobac
co -to grow bony
thin. If the feed roots are
not cut off, your tobacco
will thicken as it spreads
and make a better quality
of tobacco.
