PAGE FOUR GROWING TYPE COTTON WANTED Decreasing Acreage to the Short Staple and Now Meeting Mills' Demand North Carolina cotton growers have set about producing the kind of staple desired by the textile mills and are pteadily decreasing the acreage to short staple. This is indicated in figures compil ed by Glenn R. Smith of the depart ment of agricultural economics at State College. "Five years ago,' says Mr. Smith, "North Carolina was known as a short staple producing section. Eighty percent of the 1928 crop was less than 15-16 of an inch. But nmv things have changed. Only 35 percent of the 1932 crop was less than 15-16 of A Modern Dairy In Williamston . Equipped with all the modern dairy and milking equipment and is now supplying its customers in Williamston with milk and cream that is clean, pure, and pro duced under the most sanitary conditions. BUY OUR MILK We have 23 pure-bred cows, tested and proven free of tuberculosis. Every helper connected with the dairy holds a medical certificate as to his health and cleanliness. Most Modern in Section We have visited several plants in Eastern Carolina, and none are more modern and cleaner than our plant, and a majority of the dairies visited were located in towns 2 or 3 times larger than Williamston.

AUTOMOBILE TIRES BUY NOW OUR STOCKCOMPLETE WITH Goodyear PRICES ARE THE LOWEST IN THE HISTORY OF THE TIRE INDUSTRY Drive to our station and let us equip your car with a set of brand new GOODYEAR TIRES at prices lower than you will be able to get within a few days. i GOODYEAR TIRES ARE BETTER Quality higher than ever—PRICE LOWER. These two questions should be taken into consideration by every motorist. For this is really a good time to save money on tires. Central Service Station an inch and from 1928 to 1932, the percentage of 15-16 to one and 1-16 inch cotton increased from 19 to 64 percent. This increase has been steadily consistent and was greatest lor the staple averaging one and one sixteeth of an inch." Nor is this all. The quality of grade has been improved. Back in 1928, only 57 percent o( the cotton was white middling or better. For the 1931 asd 1932 crops, 78 percent was classed in these grades. For the U nited States as a whole, this percent age increased from 57 to 64, showing that the improvement of North Car olina cottons has been above the nor mal for the belt. Only in 1929 did the grade of Tarheel cottons go be low that for the belt. Mr. Smith says local ginncrs and cotton buyers have aided the educa tional forces of .State College and the Cooperative Cotton Growers' As sociation in this work. Ihe United Must Go Up OF ALL SIZES AND TYPES FEDERAL AID FOR FARM WORK WILL BE ELMINATED Home and Farm Agents and Agriculture Teachers Are Affected It appears now that the offices of farm agent, home agent, and the one teacher of vocational agriculture in this county will be abolished along with other similar officers throughout the State and Nation despite determin ed efforts to continue them. President Franklin D. Roosevelt has been empowered by Congress to make some drastic reductions in expenses to balance the national budget, and it appears now that the contribution of the Federal Government to the ex pense of these offices will cease, which will result in their abolition, as the county and State can not maintain them. A letter, explaining the proposec suspension of the work, has been re ceived from Congressman Lindsay C Warren, and is as follows: "When the matter came up last year I was presiding over the economy bill, and I feel that I did a great deal to help in saving the work. However, the situation is now different. It is out of the hands of Congress and is solely up to the President, who has been given the power to curtail or en tirely discontinue some governmental activities* "It is my information that the work will be discontinued. As you know, the government has been running at a deficit of a billion dollars a year, and it is the pledge of the new administra tion to balance the budget and reduce taxes. Therefore,-many good things must be discontinued along with some of the worthless ones.. 1 regret to see this step taken, but I ain sure it will be." | States Department of Agriculture has cooperated with the Experiment Sta tion during the la*t five years in se r ' curing accurate data about cotton in !an effort to stop the deterioration which was then becoming apparent. He says also that the production of a quality of cotton not in demand is uneconomical and wasteful for. the grower.

RICHMOND. V*. Tires THE ENTERPRISE Canning Schools Will Be Held in County This Week Canning schools art scheduled for the county, beginning Thursday of this week in the Jamesville Woman's Club rooms, at 10 a. m. The second school will be held in the afternoon at the home agent's office at 2 p. m. On Friday the same canning schools will be held for colored folks in and around Williamston and in the after noon at Parmele. Women in organiz ed clubs are asked to have two can ning leaders to attend the schools on Thursday and also have women from communities where there are no or ganized groups. At the school, con ducted in Jamesville, there should be representatives from Hardisons Mill, Dardens, Poplar Chapel, Ange Town, Jamesville, and Farm Life. The pur pose of the schools- is to prepare all folks in the county to preserve food for winter use for 1933 and eliminate the number of people who have lieen going hungry. Methods of preserving vegetables will be given all those at tending, and each one is asked to go forth to help all folks in the county to can or dry vegetables for winter. MINISTER HOPES DRUG SHOPS NOT TO SELL 3.2 BEER (Continued on page four) where their wives and children go for litrte purchases and pleasantries, andj where necessary commodities must be bought, would not embody, as a part i of their business, beer saloons. If these places dispense beer, theft] every time our women and. children j need to go inside, for any purpos«-j whatever, they must pass into an es tablishment all scented up with alco hol, and into a public place where al coholic beverage is being consumed by men and women. And a good many people here would walk into that only under protest; and, if they had ;tny other place to go, wouldn't walk in at all. For some of us have not forgotten the company that beer keeps. And we can not believe that the places which sell us our drugs, and up until now have offered us our wholesome social centers, can add anything to their pies lige, wlmlesomeness, good reputation by adding any percentage of alcohol at all which, regardless of what you hope for, will change the complexion of the former happy, innocent, and pleasurable community centers. We wondet tome of us do—4l the drug business and the beer business will mix well? We wonder some ot us do—if in Williamston the soda fountain business will mix with the beer-dispensing business? And we wonder —some of us do —if a large number of our women and children, and some of our men, really want this change—this, change from a well-or dered community center, where every one could feel free to go at any hour of the day or evening, to a place which, in the very nature of the case, automatically becomes questionable? BIRD DISEASES ARE SEASONAL Proplapsis, Blood Spots In Eggs and Bumble Foot Common in Spring During the heavy production period of the spring there arc three seasonal poyltry troubles which cause consid erable concern to bird owners. Ihesej are prolapsis, blood spots in eggs, and : bumble foot. "For the past three week ; we have J had daily letters about .>ue or thej other of these troubles," says Hoy S. Dearstync, head of the State College Poultry Department. ""Prolapsis isj always prevalent at this scAson, es pecially among high-producing birds.! This trouble is indicated by a portion of the oviduct extruding from the J vent and is caused by heavy, con-i tinned laying over a long period. It may be caused by the delivery of an exceptionally large egg. The condi tion is not contagious but causes much -concern." Dearstync says that any bird suf fering from prolapsis is immediately attacked by the other hens and will I be killed unless removed front the j flock., Attempts to wash the exposed | part with a mild antiseptic solution I will help and may prevent continued j attacks but is not always successful. Isolation is best, and if the case is severe, the bird should be placed on a grain ration and fattened for eating. Wake Up Your Liver —Without Calomel And Toull Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Rarin' to Go If you feel tour and mink and the world looks punk, don't swallow a lot of salta, mineral water, ail, laxative randy or chewing gum and expect them to Ksko you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunahine. I For they can't do it. They only move the bowela and a mere move mv.i doesn't get at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid Mk into your bowels daily Blood spots in eggs also cause need less concern, Dearstyne says. This is caused by a small blood vessel rup turing while the egg is being, formed. The condition is physical and is not contagious. Eggs with such blood spots arc not unhealthy nor unsafe for eating. The only way to deter mine whether are blood spots in eggs is to candle them befojs marketing. Bumble foot may be caused by a bruise or a cut, but the usual cause at this season is heavy production and a depletion of the tissue vitality of the feet. If it becomes chronic, there is nothing left to do but to fatten the btrd for market or table. It is diffi cult to cure his trouble.
