PAGE FOUR THREE MARTIN COUNTY PLAYERS ON ALL-LEAGUE TEAM SELECTED BY SCORER FOR BERTIE COUNTY Jimmie Brown, Whitehurst and Dick Cherry Chosen For Mythical Team (Hertford Ountv Herald) Aulander. July 16.—Taking in con sideration the playing in the first halt of the Bright Leaf Belt League, P. B. Pollock, official scorer for Bertie County, and who has »een every play er o! the ktgve ifi action, select* the following player* for the mythical all team: First base: Outen Gerock, of Hert ford County; second base. Nance Fore hand, of Bertie County; shortstop, Jimmie Brown, of Martin County; base, Doughlas White, of Ber tu County; catcher, Chester Roger son. of Bertie County; left field, Dwight Castelloe, of Bertie County; center fit Id. Jack Johnson, of Bertie right field, * Whitehurst, of Martin County; pitcher*, 1, Dick Cherry, Mar tin County; 2, John Mizelle, of ' Bertie County; 3, Sherman Hoggard, of Ber tie Count);: 4, Ben Hoggard, of Ber tie County, and 5. Claxton Kogeraon. ai Bertie County. The first Hood, of Martin; Latham, of Beaufort; and Baker, of Bertie are all good fielders and fair hitters, but Outen Gerock, of Hert ford. gets the call al first because he is h more steadier player aitd a fair hit ter also Besides hitting 731, Vance horehand, of Bertie, lias played his position at second well, and he is eas il\ the choice for the position. Jim mie "Brown is'a heavy hirter and a fast man on short, and he is easily the choice there. Roebuck, of Martin, Bradley, of Hertford; Waters, of Beaufort, and Miller, of Bertie, all rify ular third basemen, are good at the hot corner, but the writer thinks to shift Douglas White, of Beftie, from short to third would not weaken the all-league team in fielding, and it cer tainly would strengthen it in hitting. Chester Kogerson, of Bertie, is easily the best catcher in the league, although Stssoms, of Hertford, handles himself well behind the bat and is a fair hitter I'he outfield positions go to Jack John son. of Bertie; Dwight Castelloe, of Bertie, and Whitehurst, of Martin. All three are heavy hitters and fast out held men Other good outfielders in the league are. Jes>e Lee Cofield, of Bertie; Tomko, of Hertford; Litchfield of Beaufort; and (iaylord, ,of Martin. Five pitchers are chosen Und no utility men. All five of the pitchers chosen are good infielders and out- J .fielders. Dick Cherry, of Martin, is BASEBALL Hertford County -rj.

RAINS HELP TO BOLL WEEVILS » Wet July and August Means Heavy Infestation Says Insect Specialist Rain in July and Augtist mean* ideal conditions for the rapid development of boll weevil infestation in cotton. In dications are now that damage will be exceedingly heavy. "Activities of the weevil are largely dependent on weather conditions and though no one can forecast the weather very far in advance, it looks as if we shall have a heavy infestation this summer," says C. H. Brannon, insect specialist at State College. "For this reason cotton growers should not Wait until the last minute to make their plans for boll weevil conrol. This Work is now long past the experimental or research stage. We know that dust ing with calcium arsenate will control the pest but we also know that this dusting must be done exactly right. If not done correctly dusting has no value.". Mr. Brannon says that more weevils survived the winter than in several sea sons. This means that the pest has a good start but mean neces sarly, that this alone will cause heavy infestation in July and August. v*£he weather will decide this. If it is hot and dry, the weevil will not do math damage. If it is wet and sultry, the weevil will propagate in enormous num hers and will ruin the cotton unless protected with calcium arsenate. 801 l weevil control is now a regu lar part of the cropping system and should be so considered in the expense of raising cotton. Poison machines are necessary farming implement*, ju*t as the plow or cultivator. Hundred* of dollars have been lost in thi* State by improper method* of poisoning and the wise growers will plan to do the work as it should be done. Should any one desire detailed in formation about how to poison the weevil, Mr. Brannon will be glad to answer any inquiries addressed to him. Five Killed in Accidents Over Week End in State ♦ T " Charlotte, July 22.—Rainy weather combined with the uaual heavy Sun day automobile traffic yesterday to cause numerous accidents on North Carolina highways. Five persons, four of them negroes, were killed and a score injured. Mrs. Clarence Johnson, wife of a Cabarrus county farmer, was killed in the head-on collision of the Johnson car with that of Mumford Ritchie, Jr., 18 of Concord, on the Concord- Davidson highway. Miss Mary John son, 20; George Hipp, 7, and Lois Hipp, 10, were injured but are ex pected to recover. All were riding in the Johnston car. Ritchie and members of his party escaped injury. Ritchie wii arrested but was later released on bond. Four Durham negroes were killed at Hynum. All were pasiiengers in the care of George Staley, negro, who drove his machine into the side of the Hawriver bride. Pour other neg roes were injured in the wreck Staley was held without bond pending in vestigation of the accident. CHEESE PLANT PAYS FARMERS V —♦— Started Last Summer, £lant Has Had Remarkable Growth When l>airy Specialist Farnham and County Agent Turner cleaned out an eld garage in West "Jefferson, Ashe County, last summer and invited farm ers to bring in their ntilk to be made into cheese, some folks thought the two young men were suffering from a mild form Of brainstorm. "But," protested the two misguided men, "The Kraft Cheese Company say they will take over the plant when we can guarantee 6,000 pounds of milk a day." "Sorry, boys, but there isn't that, much milk in all this section," said some of the knowing ones. Mr. Farnham and Mr. Turner had a meeting of tome leading farmers who constituted themselves into a commit tee in charge and after suitable prep arations were made, the improvised cheese factory began operation. On the opening day, only 1,100 pounds of milk were received but in less than a month the guarantee of 6,000 pounds a day had been passed and the Kraft company had taken overbite plant. Increased production has made it necessary to move into more commodi ous quarters once and last week it was announced that the factory was receiv ing over 25,000 pounds of milk each day. Last week it was also announced that the Kraft company would build a factory valued at SIOO,OOO to manu facture cheeae and condense milk aail whey. Two units will be constructed. Oae to handle cheese and powdered whey and the other to handle sweet cream and powdered sldm milk. The farmers of that section are seed ing pastures and buying dairy cowa. They now have an assured market for ■II the milk they CJ« produce and aub atations for collecting additional milk will be added in outlying sections. Thus through faithful efforts, the dairy industry of North Carolina gets another, substantial boost. And thia to only the beginning. Scotland County farmers are having a hard time finding seed with which to plant their stubbie » i , THE ENTERPRISE WANTS WE ARE NOW PREPARED TO do altering and sewing of all kinds.
