MILD WINTER IS NOT FAVORABLE TO BEEKEEPERS Bees Roused to Activity and Make Inroads on Food Supply in Hives The mild weather of the present winter, favorable to most farming op erations in Nortlj Carolina, is unfav orable to the beekeeper because the bees are roused to activitiy and makes inroads on the food supply stored in . - - C. L. Sams, specialist in beekeep ing at State College, makes the time ly suggestion that owners of apiaries should check their colonies from time I to time apd find out the supply of | honey on hand. It is known that the | bees entered the winter in better con- I dition than was expected after the light honey flow of the fall. A late I drought caused a falling off in the supply of nectar, but as a general rule i the bees found enough blossoms to lay up a needed supply of honey. Some beekeepers may find it neces sary to feed their bees during the lat ter part of the winter, says Mr. Sams, so that the colonies may meet the i spring nectar flow i nstrong condition. It is too early to anticipate the crop for 1932, but Mr. Sams finds prospects particularly bright at present. Recent rains generally over North Carolina , have helped greatly and the honey producing plants are in normal con dition. The only dark spot in the State's honey industry at this time is the poor market for honey made last sea ■ son. Many beekeepers will have about . one-half of their stocks on hand. It is doubtful, Mr. Sams says, if more than one-half of he 1931 crop has been marketed. This was due in part to ( the large yield produced and in part to poor marketing methods. The North Carolina Beekeepers As sociation is meeting at State College this week, January 21 pnd 22, and ■ marketing will be the principal topic for discussion. It is hoped to gel some kind of group action by mem ' | bers of the organization. , | » County Farmers Have 60 Cqrs Sweet Potatoes Martin County farmers have 60 cars of cured sweet potatoes for sale from the curing houses of the county. - 6 6 6 LIQUID - TABLETS - SALVE . 666 Liquid or Tablets used internall) |and 666 Salve externally, make a com. plete and effective treatment for coldi Most Speedy Remedies Known.

I DOWN ON THE FARM i BY ROY PARK 1931 has passed on, giving way to 1932 and its surprises and disappoint ments, and many agree with Governor Gardner that this year, more than ever, they felt like ringing the old year out and rejoicing as it became history. It is just as well so. Napoleon won j battles because he expected victories. And so long as we look forward to something better, keep a stiff upper lip courage, level head, and work to- gcther, better times must come, even t tuallyy. i • For cooperative marketing, 1931 was I a fruitful year and for farmers coop erative marketing was a saviour in time of distress, enabling them to draw ' liberal advance and yet retain equity in their crop. More tlin 40,000 new members join- ! ed the eleven state cotton associa t tions during the year to bring the to . tal A, C. C. A. membership well over . I 200,000. Assembled ifi columns of .' fours this line of organized farmers i would extend across your county and II would take from dawn until well at't-l «r- sunset to march by your Court house. I North Carolina heartily joined the' \ cooperative parade, and the member | ship of the state cooperative now to-' tals around thirteen and a half thous | and. I * | But this regiment of cotton growers t j represents less than one-tenth of the I army of cooperative farmers in Ameri- I | ca, which is growing every day. Five hundred new cooperatives were or ganized during the past two years,! bringing the total to 11,950, with a' membership of three million. Sales and purchases by these co ' operatives in 1930-31 totaled $2,400,- C 000,000." I, _ P Cooperation is nothing new; it is s as old as civilization itself, of which t it is the foundation stone. One writ a er says cooperation first began when y primitive man first learned that two - men could move a stone which one | could not budge. » Descendants of these men, wiser e with experience, soon learned that still i- more men could cooper/ate to roll a it way the bigger stones of ignorance and t individuality and clear the path for e progress. n Upon this theory we have been able ° to move from caves to skyscrapers, to 't cease marvelling at the bird and zoom through the air ourselves, and, ajl in i* all, to live and work together and get e more out of life than did the two ha!f 1 naked primitive men who discovered c the value of working together. .. Rural people, because of their isola tion, have been slower than their neigh bors of the city to cooperate. But in 1932 these 200,000 cotton farmers are planning to work together to grow S 1 WASHINGTON "A man who can be comfort able in the presence of a griev ous -wrong is to a great extent guilty of that wrong."
