Brick Brooder Finding Favor With Growers The brick brooder i- not better but ' it is just as good as the commercial brooder and probably much cheaper. The brick brooder is a recent devel opinei)t in North Carolina, but thous ands of good poutfrynien have found them satisfactory They are easily constructed from brick or from stone found on the farm, and the fire haz aid is not su great.

ACTION OF BOARD Two Members Gum Neck "i School Committee Are > Removed by Board 'i A decision wan handed down re-| "icently by Judge W. L. Small, of Eliz abeth City, holding that the I vrrell V | County Board of Education had the "j right to remove the committeemen of j the Gum Neck school irj that county, land thus was settled a much publicized g case. * I w. L. Whitley, of Plymouth, was 1 asked by the State School Commis -1 sion in Kaleigh to represent the inter • ests : of the Tyrrell County Board of ' ).M.wni„n. which was the defcnd»m» -Tin the case. And the findings in the J ica- by the jurist was sent to him V here. c C. A. Jones adn F. T Armstrong were serving on the Gum Neck s;hool 4 committee- and scattered reports reach 1 ed the officials that these two men hud ' been accepting compensation from teachers for their employment in this , school, and the county officials asked | them to resign. Instead of complying with the in | -mictions of the county officials the I committee decided to continue i.i this ! capacity and then the county official ordered them removed, but the local | committee secured an injunction t" | hold their offices. Then he matter went into the coutrs. Mr. Whitley, as attorney for the ! Tyrrell County Board of Education, was advised today that the county board had the authority to remove the. j ininiiilecmeii and that the case was j | dismissed and llipt this judgment was final. The Tyrrell County Board of Edu cation, composed of C. J- Cahoon, I John A. Sawyer, and J. E. Morris, and 111 G. Robertson, superintendent of I the schools.in the county, were named defendants.

HOME AGENTS OF STATE TO MEET Hold Conference at State College on November 7, 8, and 9 Home demonstration agents cm ployed by the State College agricul tural extension service wil Ihold a con ference at I lie college on November, 7, 8, and 9, according to Mrs Jane; S. McKimmon, state agent in charge of this work. The the conference, Mrs. McKimmon -ays, is to take an inventory of work done in 1933 and to make plans for aiding a larger num ber of farm women next season. "In our emergency canning work this summer, we found a large num ber of women who had never before I had 'a part in our home demonstration | clubs, and we are anxious to expand lour services to meet the needs of these ' women," she -aid "To do this, we ( arc planning to ask our trained lead er- to do much of the work in the clubs now organized so that the coun ity agents may be free to reach some lof the unorganized women who need lour aid We hall also make plans to ! have leaders reach some of the unor- I ganized women in their own com jmunities." The outstanding feature of home 1 demonstration work next season will be reaching the woman who has not | been reached heretofore. Not only I does Mrs. McKimmon plan to use the I home agents and the trained leaders | t'o do this, but she expects to use 1 her specialists from th ecollege to go I before these women and give them the benefit of dmonstration work. At | first, the elementary demonstrations will be made to be followed as rapidly as possible with the more advanced work which older home demonstra tion club members are now mastering. Another feature of the oonference in November will be the daily round discussions by which each agent will benefit and learn from the ex periences of the other, Mrs. McKim mon said. THE ENTERPRISE , Cotton Stalks Should Be Destroyed Early One of the most important things I ; I to be done in the fall to control boll j weevils is the destruction of cdtton stalks immediately after the last pick-! mg. The quicker the stalks are de-' - stroyed the better the control. This - method of control has the added fea- I ture of being cheap and is just as ef-1 ; fective as dusting with calcium arse-i [ nate in that it destroys the hibernat-j ,| ing and feeding places. Destroying' I the stalks will not only kill a certain i percentage of the weevils but will al so control many other insects that I infest cotton fields. "I . ' PEANUTS SHORT I IN AUSTRALIA; i ; * . Importation of Virginia. : Peanuts Authorized by 1 Government V ... • I; Virginia peanuts will be welcomed j i in Australia this year, according to a 1 s'report received at the Norfolk bureau 1 of the Department of Commerce. This I bulletin said: "Owing to a shortage in the pea -6 nut crop, the Queensland Peanut board si has been given permission by the J Australian Commonwealth Govern -1 merit to import 350 (long) tons ot j peanut kernels, according to a report r | (from Trade Commissium r jvarl C. l Squire, Sydney, August 12, 1933. Im- port at ion is conditional on the ker-j i nels being distributed among the board's customers in proportion to • ii-he. particular manufacturer's pur-' s chases during the year ending June,! , i 1932, and used only for manufacturing I purposes. i The kernels will be admitted under ,I tariff item 434. a special by-law pro-j I viding for a lower rate of duty on I products to be used in domestic ntanu [ faiture.

PLANT NOW FOR EARLY GARDEN Some Crops Can Be Planted At This Season for Early Vegetable Supply i Though garden wor kis generally, I'considered to lie ovey at- Utts season, there are a fev, crops which may be | planted in most sections of the state c j for a supply of early vegetables next -! spring j "Lettuce seed may he planted i [ ing the latter part of October or early I in November to assure a supply ot •lliead lettuce next spring," a\s li. B : Morrow, extension horticulturist at -j State College. "The plants will conic •j through the winter if given light pro -J lection such as that afforded by a t, cloth-covered frame. Onion sets may 1 be planted in October and will pro >j vide a crop of green onions early next - season. The two best varieties for - this purpo c arc the White Pearl and the Silver.ikin. Spinach, kale, rape, E and mustard will make early spring I greens if planted now and the seed t row mulched with straw or a light / application of strawy manure." e Mr. Morrow also advised planting s cabbage seed in bills at this time to e be reset in the open field by Janu j'ary or early February. il One of the most important garden t jobs at present, however, is to har s vest and store the surplus crops pro y ildceil this fall. Cabbage, celery, j beets, carrots, parsnips, turnips, and - irish potatoes keep best at a cool r. temperature and in moderately moist e atmospheres. The cotnnton forms o( j storage, sifch as pits, hills, and eel-, t lars, may he used for thi.-i purpose. > Onioijis and trtlier-bulbous crops keep - best at cool temperatures hut in dry atmospheres.
