The effect the report ed shortage in plants will have on the acreage this season cannot be determ ined at this time, but it is generally believed that a decrease will result. Tha shortage in plants this year in this entire section 'is said to be the I greatest in years, scores of old tobac-j fdr farmers stating that they had never seen a year when plants were more scarce , j Unofficial reports received here dur ing the -past day or two state that far mers in nearby counties are considering ordering plants out of Georgia and South Carolina for transplanting on their farms in this part of the State. Re£brts from Georgia indicate that there are sufficient plants there for far mers in several states, that the growers in that state are planning to increase their acreage to a great extent. Con flicting reports have been heard how ever, and it is not known now whether one ia justified.in believing that the far mers there will raise 150,000,000 pounds or decrease the 90,000,000 pounds rais ed daring the past season. A majority of the reports forecasts an increase in the acreage, however. ♦ CALL ELECTION AT EVERETTS • Citizens There Will Vote on Power Question the 31st of May In an effort to ascertain the will of the qualified voters of the town of Everetts relative to the sale of the light and power distribution system there, the board of aldermen in session last Tuesday night, called an election and a new registration, the election to be held the 31st of next month.

According to information gained from Dr. W. E. Warren yesterday, isolation is the best way to combat the spread of the disease, medical science being somewhat limited in„its power to check an advance of the particular type of meningitis found there. Serum has been administered'and residents coming in contact with those afflicted have .been ordered quarantined in au effort to limit the spread of the dis ' ease. : Dr. H. A. Taylor, State Epidemi ' piogist. was here yesterday conferring | with the county health officer relative to the disease, but it was his belief that physicians' and health authorities 1 were doing all in- their power to han dle the situation.

The S meeting was well attended by Modern Woodmen from all over the district., Sketch Of J. H. Johnson's Life During 0 In the fast fading Line of Gray, Mar. tin County has only five heroes. These y is no history more interesting than the y trials and tribulations experienced by the men who defended the South's Cause in the Civil War. Their stories , strict attention on the part of j mere youth as well as command the interest 'of those of all ages. s Following is a brief sketch of Mr. e James H. Johnson, one of the county's oldest veterans. Other sketches will i- appear from time to time. James H. Johnson, 87 years of age, was born near Oak City where he was reared on a farm. At a tender age and soon after the conflict between 1 the States was opened he joined Cap tain Clemmons' company, being one oi the first Uo volunteer in the cause of ' the South\ Immediately after he vol g bnteered, Iris company, made up prin cipally of young Martin County men, was sent to defend the fort at Roanoke Island. He saw but little service be fore the fort fell into the hands of the enemy and be was taken prisoner. Mr. Johnaon, with a number of other pris v oners- from this county, was sept to Governor's Island, New York, later go ing to Boston. He was held prisoner e there until Christmas, 1861, when he c. was exchanged. n Returning home from Boston, Mr. Johnson then went with the 17th Reg _ JmaU. £amt»ny E.

The cases from this county formed a portion of the docket, it is understood. The clourt, according to reports, was more lenient with its subjects this week than it was during the last term. Eight of hte violators facing Judge ( Meekins were from the Free Union section. They were James Daniel, col ored, 3 years at Washington, D. C.; Timothy Keys, Grady James and Handy Wiliams, all colored, charged * manufacturing, each was sentenc ed to Washington, D. C. for a year and a day.

During two weeks in March they had to give over to the superior court; a session was held on 1 Tuesday of last week, but witti many cf the court attendants being called as witnesses in the Federal court at Wash ington, no cases were heard last Tues day. Next Tuesday and the follow ing Tuesday the Martin County Su perior Court will be in session, freez ing the county court out again. The recorder will occupy the bench 1 one more time this month, a session r being scheduled for the 29th. «| part of 1862 until Johnson's surrender e n>ar Greensboro in 1865, Mr. Johnson e had many varied experiences and sev- H eral close calls. He was with Ran i lom's Brigade in the capture of Ply f mouth, and of many happenirfgs e that caused one's hair to stand on its end. In making the charge, General Ransom drove his horse into Conaby " Creek, the steed being fastened solid * in the mire. Mr. Johnson laughed heartily wheq telling how he and the late Timothy I. Gray, also a Martin ;, County boy, pulled the hprse from the e creek. He offered an interesting de i scription of th« charge and told how ti the enemy fled before him. " Most of the fiercest fighting encoun ' tcred by Mr. Johnson was at Bermuda '' Hundreds and other points around I" Petersburg. Although many men were ' shot dead by his side, he escaped with >■ only two slicht wounds, neither of which forced him from actual service. After a stay in the conflict around e Petersburg, Mr. Johnson was detailed '• for foraging service with General '• (Fighting) Joe Wheeler. Of all the 0 service he saw, Mr. Johnson says his >- work with General Wheeler, *rhom he * knew well from personal contact, was e the most thrilling. He wsis greatly impressed with the beauty in the Val r. ley of Virginia, stating that the people [- there were the most loyal and most y generous he has ever met in his life. PLAN TO HOLD TAX MEETING IN THIS COUNTY • Farm And Home Owners Are Expected To Attend Meeting MEET IN COURTHOUSE Meetings in Many Counties Tomorrow Will Appoint Delegates to State Meeting •* A large number of farm and home owners of Martin County are expected at the courthouse next Saturday morn ing, April 12, to attend the mass meet ing which is to be held for the purpose of organizing a County Tax Relief As sociation and send as many delegates as possible to the State Tax Relief meet ing in Raleigh on Monday, April 14. v The campaign to bring about re duced property valuations is sweeping over North Carolina, and in each of the hundred counties of the State meet ings will be held next Saturday morn inp for the purpose of helping perfect county units of the State organization. State Chairman Larry I. Moore, of New Bern, is Urging the various coun ty chairmen to see that the meetings arc given extensive publicity. "These county meetings next Sat urday are of vital importance to the success of the campaign," he stated re cently. "Thousands of farms and homes in North Carolina already have been sold for taxes at a small pittance of their true value and valid tax deeds have ben given to purchasers. Hun ■ drcds af actions to- foreclose tax ccr* tificates are now pending in every county and, unless some relief is se cured, these properties will have to be sacrificed. It is up to the farm and home owners in our hundred counties to attend the meetings in their respect ive counties next Saturday morning at 10:30 o'clock. Each meeting has been called for that hour. If we proceed to take action now, there is no question but that beneficial results will follow. If we display an altitude of indiffer ence, then we can blame no one but ourselves for, existing I sincerely hope that every farm and home owner who can possibly do so will attend the meeting at the court house next Saturday. Martin County is the organization plan and a large crowd is expected at the courthouse here at 10:30 Saturday. Presbyterian Services Are Announced for Sunday Rev. Z. T.
