T. Overby, agricultural teacher in the Jamesville school, dis cussed a safer program of farming and living, at a meeting held in the school building there last Tuesday evening. Although at one period it looked like the meeting was going to drift in to a money-nuking program, and the best way to make money on tobacco, a halt was finally called, and every body got their minds on the real needs oi their farms, their families, and their neighbors. They discussed the cows, kind of hogs, cattle, and chickens, as well as the field and garden crops nec essary to make the farm home a place of peace happiness, and plenty.

The signal was late in coming however, as the officers cited Pierce and Williams just as they wtre levaing the plant. Williams turn ed for home, and he and one of the of ficers covered the half-mile distance in short order. In the house and under the bed Williams went, the officer find iug it necessary to drag him out by a leg.

Martin County, North Carolina, Friday, February 14, 1930 To Hold Meeting Tonight at 7:30 O'clock In City Hall Meeting last Wednesday».evenirig in the city hall here, ten local merchants formed an organization to fight the chain stores, the undertaking receiving a 100 per cent endorsement. While i the practices employed by the foreign organizations in conducting their 1 businesses were discussed at length, ! i the newly organized association of the j j merchants limited its business to the i appointment of a committee to collect I data and study plans advanced in other j towns and sections where similar 'movements are underway. Several of the town's leading mer chants went to Rocky Mount yesterday afternoon where a concentrated at-, tack is being waged against "the chain stores a' this time. They will study the methods of procedure folowed there and will report their findings at a meeting of the local merchants hrre this evening at 7:30 o'clock in the city i hall, it was announced. Although the organization was only formed Wednesday evening, much in formation relative to the chain store operations and methods was laid be fore the meeting. Three of the stores here, it was pointed out, are paying $144 town taxes, while the individual home merchants pays on an average of $l5O to S6OO or more in taxes. "Thousands of dollars are going to the chain stores never to return to the community," the chairman stated. Con tinuing he said, "This condition leaves the task of building the community to the individual merchant. No streets arc paved, no water lines are laid with tlu help of the foreign organizations. The avenue of business is being so limited that the young child of today ccnnot escape the low salary of the chain operators unless there is a stop put to their wide operations." Started by "Old Man, Henderson" out in Shreveport, Louisiana, some months ago, the drive against the chain stores was ably put underway at the meeting here last Wednesday, the merchants pledging a 100 per cent, support to the campaign. Other towns in this section have reported much progress in their fight against the or ganizations, and it is believed a strong attack will be made heVe within the next few days. R. B. GARDNER DIES NEAR HERE w Burial Yesterday Afternoon In Family Plot on the Home Farm *. Robert B.

He leaves a widow, four boys, Wil lie, John, Kader, and Theodore Gard ner, and three daughters, Mrs. Bertha Moor.e Mrs. Mamie Ferry, and Mrs. Lillian Coltrain, all of Martin County. Burial was in the Gardner burial plot on his home farm, following funeral services, which were "'conducted by Rev. R. A. Phillips. Robersonville High School Reports Attendance Drop Attendance in the Robersonville schools during the month recently closed, dropped 1.73 per cent as com pared with figures reported for the previous month. The decrease is con sidered very small, however, as the bad condition of the roads un favorable weather held many children at home. The decrease was marked in the elementary the attendance ir> that department dropping from 96.5 to 92.7. While only two schools have report ed their attendance figures for the past month, it is believed that prac tically all, if not all the others will show a decrease iir their attendance figures during the period. Locals Defeat Farmville Iri a Second Game Here Coach Hood's basketball boys add ed another victory to their long list last Tnesday evening when they de feated Farmville's strong five Planters Warehouse court here, 24 to 10v It was Farmville's second defeat at the hands c& the local boys.

Going to Henderson last Wednesday evening, th elocal boys defeated the high school team of that place by a,21 to 8 count. At the.Jtialf the score was tied at 6-all, Coach Hood's boys re turning to the court to add 16 points and limiting their opponents to 2 points made from the foul line. MARTIN COUNTY FALLS SHORT IN LIVING AT HOME Survey Shows that Farmers Failed to Raise Enough Food for Home Use $1,282,675 DEFICIENCY Survsy Show* that Smiliar Conditions Exist in Many Other Counties of North Carolina Although it is one of the biggest pork-producing counties in the State, Martin County falls far short of com ing within Governor Gardner's select group of "Live at Home" cpupties, ac cording to a survey made by the agri cultural extension service of the North Carolina State College in connection withe the "Live-at-Home" program of tlie governor. TKIs survey shows that Martin County farmers failed in 1928 to pro duce enough staple food* and feeds to take care of their requriements not only of the total population of the ccunty, but evert of their own food and feed requirements. 1 he value of the county-wide defic iency in food aail feed was $1,282,675 and the value of the farm food and feed deficiency was $686,851. This deficiency represents food and feed that was purchased out of the borders of Martin County or beyond tlu borders of the State, or which the people of Martin County did without and in doing without lowered their standard of living below the level of the average American citizen. Not only in Martin County, but in the State almost as a whole, is this condition prevalent and hundreds of millions of dollars a year are being sent out of North Carolina for the purchase of food and feed itejns which might just as well have been produced at home instead of the so-called "mon ey crops." It is the belief of Governor Gardner and the agricultural leaders of the State that one of the best ways for the farmers of North Carolina to put agri culture again on a prosperous basis is to firat raise enough food and feed to take care of themselves and their families and their livestock and then to put what surplus lands they have into tobacco, tb'tton, or peanuts. This would make the farmers hide- | pendent of the suffering that follows low prices and poor production of the •so-called "money crops" and would al so have tl\£ effect of tending to boost "money crop" prices through Curtailed pioduction. At present there is some danger that the farmers of eastern North Carolina this spring will make another big in crease in tobacto acreage. It has been pointed out that farmers in South Car olina and southern Georgia are plan ning the ftie thing and that unless very unusual weather conditions pre vail that there will be a tremendous overproduction of tobacco in the Unit ed States next fall. Farmers of Martin County have many angles at which they can ap proach the business of growing more food and feed and fewer "money crops.' In 1928 they failed by 483,000 bushels of producing enough corn to meet the requriements of the population of the county and the livestock of the coun ty; they failed by 136,000 bushels of producing enough oats; failed by 7,792 tons of producing enough hay; failed by more than one million pounds of producing enough beef and veal; failed by more than one hundred thousand pounds of producing enough mutton; failed by two and one-quarter million gallons of producing enough milk; failed by one hundred thousand pounds ol producing enough poultry, and failed by 175,000 dozen of producing enough eggs. They produced a million and one half pound surplus of pork, a hundred thousand bushel surplus of irish pota toes, and a seven thousand pound sur plus of sweet potatoes. I The period between 1920 and 1928 saw remarkable advances in Martin County in the production of milk and pork, the survey shows. Production of milk was increased from 64,000 gallons in 1920 to 448,000 gallons in 1928, and the production of pork was increased from 1,987,000 pounds in 1920 to 3,473,000 pounds in 1928. During the same period irish potato production sky-rocketed front 12,000 bushels to 139,000 bushels, and poul try production increased 50,000 pounds. Production of beef and veal declined almost one-half million pounds, and production of sweet potatoes shrank from 94,000 bushels to 77,000 bushels. Production of corn, oats, and eggs were virtually stationary. Soy bean production almost quad rupled, peanut production jumped from 15,000,000 pounds to more than 21,000,000 pounds, tobacco production increased from 5,369,000 pounds to more than 12,000,000 pounds, and there was a decrease in cotton production from 8,184 bales to 6,517 bales. Total value of money crops in Mar tin County in 1928 was 4,357,986, with tobapco leading at $2,663,971, peanuts second at $1,662,492, and cotton third $576,285. Net value after deducting estimated fertilizer and laud rent costs and the farm food and feed deficiency was $2,- 318,845, which amounted to approvi- 'Branch Banking and Trust Co. !
