This Morning
■■■ ■ # ' i
Im
S. Russell Lane, attorney, and L, P.
Peel, both of Roxobel, were badly
hurt in an aittomobile wreck near
here on the Washington Road early
today. The extent of the young men's
injuries could not be determined
shortly after the accident, but it was
feared that Peel was seriously hurt.
Lane was badly cut about the face.
Traveling toward Washington, Peel
the driver, apparently went to sleep
at the wheel. The car ran off the
road and into a tree, near the home of
Mr. H.-C. Green. Every glass in the
Chevrolet car was broken and the
front end of the machine was smash
ed.
An ambulance was called and ar
rangements were made to carry Peel
te a hospital.
The wreck was the third one re
ported on the particular road this
week, two cars having been wrecked
near Washington yesterday, and an
other wrecked near Skewarkey Tues
day evening.
PLANNING WAR
AGAINST RATS
Orders for Poison Will Be
Handled Cooperatively,
Home Agent Says
Mr. A. E. Oman, connected with
the United States Biological Survey,
was in the county Wednesday morn
ing of this week to determine the a
mount of interest in "rat extermina
tion" in the county. Many women in
the county have asked the home agent
to secure such help from Raleigh.
Every one knows the rat is the most
destructive rodent in the world. Rats
destroy produce worth several mil
lions of dollars each year and owind
to the rapid increase an epidemic of
rats can be realized in a short time.
It has been estimated that a pair
, of rats could, in three years, produce
359,709,480 individuals. Keeping this
in mind, peanuts, corn, and other
grains in storage become products of
the destructive rats and money wast
ed. Invite the rats on. your place to
a dinner of fish, grain, and meat, in
which amounts of red squill have been
added, which will kill rats. Th» baij;
is 50 cents, given any one at cost, and
will be ordered for any one interested
in destroying rats. If interested, place
your order with the home agent that
a combined order may be sent in di
rectly.

REPORTS MADE
BY ONLY 3 OF
TEN TOWNSHIPS
Canvassers Are Said To Be
Still at Work In the
County This Week
——
Early reports encouraging to the
perfecting of a marketing arrangement
; for the present peanut crop met with
, disappointment last Tuesday afternoon'
when only three townships reported
' any canvassing activities. Hut the
thne to say die is not now, as it is
; understood that the canvassers named
! at a meeting held Thursday of last
I week arc still at work in their respect
ive territories and a county-wide re
port is expected within the next few
days.
Only three townships reported any
activities at the scheduled meeting last
1 uesday afternoon. The committees
in the seven other districts just failed.
No county chairman was named, and
while the undertaking is on the edge
of failure, there is still hope for a con
jslructive organization. When the can
vassing is completed, it is understood
a county chairman will be selected and
contact made with other units through
out the peanut-growing area.
One hundred and thirty farmers in
Griffins, Williams, and Williamston j
Township favored the agreement,
pledging 25,561 bags of the goobers.
The canvassers said they found it al
most impossible to visit every farmer,
but they were of the firm opinion that
the agreement would meet with almost
a 100 per cent success in their respect
ive districts. A few of those agreeing
to hold their peanuts off the market,
refused to sanction the proposed sell
ing arrangement; that is, through the
Central committee. A few favored the
agreement from end to end, but re
fused to offer one out of every 100
bags to offset the expenses of the mar i
keting plan.
Despite the starvation price offered
at the present time, one or two "farm
ers said they would not decrease their
peanut acreage net year. A goodly j
number said they had their next year's
crop, meaning they would not sell un
less the price was materially increased.
If the price fails to advance, then they
will not raise a crop next season. '■
Many farmers stated they planned to
reduced their acreage 50 per cent next
year.
Of the 130 farmers filling in the in
formation blanks, 60 were in Griffins
Township, representing 7,844 bags; 29
were in Williamston Township, rep
resenting 8,865 bags; and 41 were in
VVjlliams Township, representing 8,-
851 bags.
The canvassers are urged to com
plete their work as early as possible
and report their returns that the coun
ty unit might be formed.
Announce Sermon Topics

Sunday morning in the Church of
the Advent, Rev. E. F. Moseley will

Peanut Holding Movement Is
On Verge of Failing in County
WILL MAKE NO
ADDITIONS TO
PENSION LIST
.
Might Not Send Checks to
Widows and Veterans
Before Christmas
That there will be no increases in
! pensions allowed widows of Confeder
ate soldiers or no new applications
| considerations within the fiext sixty
days was made certain in a letter from
State Auditor Baxter Durham to Clerk
of the Court R. J. Peel here yester
day. And there was sdme doubt as
to whether the regular pensions will
be paid at this time.
t Mr. Durham's letter, addressed to
Mr. Peel, follows:
"You filed in this office certain ap
lications for increase in widows' pen-,
sions and others for the pension roll.
I regret more than 1 can say that
there is not sufficient money in the
appropriation to allow for any addi
■ tions to the roll.
"1 hope that within 60 days we,will j
be able to pay the applications from
your county now before us. \
"I understand what a severe disap
pointment this will be to the appli
cants, and 1 regret the circumstances
that make this letter necessary."
Heretofore,-pension checks were re
ceived by the court clerk here by or
before this tifne of the month, and dis
tribution was completed before Christ
mas. It is hoped, however, that the
checks w ill reach here within the next
day or two, and that the increases and
additions will be approved within 60 (
days.
Several new applications have been I
made since the last payment six ;
months ago, the applicants being in
dire need of assistance.
GROWERS AND '
CLEANERS MEET
Advised Against Rushing
Peanuts To Market
At This Time
Peanut growers carrying their
j grievances to the door of the clean
j ers in Suffolk this week were urged
J to check the indiscriminate rushing of
I peanuts on the market and advised
j them to inaugurate a curtailment pro-j
gram calling for a 40 percent reduc-1
tion in acreage next year. It is the
opinion of many that the orderly!
marketing of the peanut crop and an
epected acreage reduction next year
will strengthen the market.
Peanut sections are pleading with
the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion to purchase more than a million
bags of the goobers and distribute
them among tlie hungry just as the
Rid Cross is distributing flour and
clothing at the present time. There
is little hope for the government en
tering into the peanut market, and
the main hope rests in the formation
and maintenance of a selling agree
ment assuring the orderly marketing
of the peanut crop, and a reduced
acreage next season.
Announce Schedule oi
Curb Market Operations
The curb market will be, open here
Saturday morning of this week, and
Thursday morning of next week pre-!
ceding Christmas, and Thursday
morning of the following week pre- j
ceding New Year's Day. It is hoped
the patrons will keep the dates in,
mind. Holly, mistletoe and trees can
be secured through the market. All
sellers appreciate the patronage of,
those who have in any way helped to j
make our little market grow this j
year. Order your turkey at the mar
ket here Saturday. A few prices fol-1
low:
Eggs, 33' cents; butter 25 cents;
turnips, 3 cents a bunch; potatoes, 1
cent a pound, irish and sweet;- meal,
1 cent a pound; cream, 25 cents.

It is too late to shop early, and |
there are only seven more days to (

Postal authorities state there

LONGEST RAINY
SPELL BROKEN
♦
Promise of Snow In This
Section Today «.Or
Tomorrow
This section experienced its long
est rainy spell this week than for
months, old J. t'luvius pouring forth 1
five days and nights, beginning last
Saturday. But despite the frequent
rains, no- great amount of water fell
during the period,' according to Hugh
Spruill, official measurer ;►! the river,
| who. reported two and eighteenths
j inches from Saturday up to Wednes
day; night. • ... I
The rains had little upon the
streams in the section, but they soaked
the earth, making many roads almost
impassahle in various parts of the
county. The road* are said to be in
the worst condition now than at any
time since the State took them over,
| hut no serious traffic handicap has re
sulted. At least superior court follow
ers were not handicapped very much,
for they turned out in large numbers |
'front all parts of the county while the
tribunal was in session.
The skies cleared up yesterday
morning, but rain or snow was pre-
I dieted for today.

with a group of Suffolka, Va., clean
j crs, who assured him that better prices
for peanuts would he obtained if the
farmers could be'persuaded to stop
rushing the commodity to market fast
er than the cleaners could take care
of them.
The Kiwani.s Club passed a resolu
! tion asking the Congress of the Unit
ed States to purchase a substantial
i quantity of peandts for distribution
!by . relief agencies throughout the
! country in :the same manner as gov

ESTABLISHED 1898
JURY FINDS AGED
MAN GUILTY OF
KILLING HIS SON
—.—
Calmly Hears Verdict and
Registered No Complaint
About the Sentence
Harvey L. Gardner, aged farmer liv
ing near here, was sentenced by Judge
I'rank A. Daniels in superior court
here Wednesday afternoon to serve
from 7 to 12 years in prison for killing
his son, Willie Gardner, several days
ago. 1 aking the case, the jury is un
derstood to have immediately agreed
upon a verdict, finding the old man
guilty of manslaughter, but the de
cision was not announced until after
a discussion that lasted for about 35
minutes.
Ihe defendant calmly accepted the
verdict and registered no complaint
against the sentence. He was re
moved from the county jail yesterday
and turned over to State prison au
thorities in Raleigh. The defendant
will likely be transferred to the State
I farm at Caledonia, where he will have
an opportunity to continue farming.
I Good behavior on Ifis part will lessen
i Ilia sentence by one-third, giving him
a minimum sentence of four and two
thirds years, unless a parole or par-
I don is granted him.
Believed to have figured in more
unnecessary trouble than -any other
man in the county,- the defendant re
ceived this week his first sentence of
any length. His activities were re
viewed at length by Prosecutor' Gil
; Irani in his talk toTTie jury, but lie on
ly touched the high spots. Defense
Attorney 11. G. llortou, preached his
argument before the jurors, finding
little foundation in the evidence or
the old man's record upon which to
base a substantial plea for acquittal.
Octavious Gardner. 11 -year-old son
of the late Willie* Gardner, was one
of the main witneses in the case, and
despite his tender age be made a good
witness.
Following the Gardner trial, the
i court heard one .or two other criminal
I case* and continued the few civil is
sues scheduled for trial yesterday and
today. I lie court adjourned late that
afternoon. - _
