VOLUME XLII?NUMBER 63 W' illiamston, Martin County, ISorth Carolina, Tuesday, in pus/ H. I'f.Vt. , C ESTABLISHED 1899 Fire And Hot Sun Claim Ten Percent County leaf Crop Value of Tohaeeo liiirnnl in Field* F*timated at $200,000.00 Fire and the hot sun continue to claim a big portion of the tobacco crop in this county, late reports in dicating that Martin farmers have toil $20u.uuu worm oi the leaf m their fields while fire was another exacting a toll of approximately $15, 000 in the curing barns and pack houses. With six losses reported over the week-end, the number of curing barns burned in the county now stands in the neighborhood of thir ty. John Hadiey, farmer living near Williamston, lost his second barn of the season Sunday. Using an oil burner, he left the barn and was in his home when the barn caught fire and burned. Farmer State Ayers, of Cross Roads, and Farmer George Taylor, each lost a barn during the week-end A barn belonging to Mrs. Arthur Wynn was burned Monday morning in Cross Roads Township. A barn on the Carson farm in Rob ersonville Township was destroyed by fire Sunday afternoon. Zeno Bed dard, Hamilton Township farmer, reported a barn burned on his farm Monday morning. Eleven barns have been burned within a radius of five miles of Oak City this season to represent the center of the losses. The fires have been fairly numerous in the Rober sonville and Cross Roads sections. Unofficial records indicate that the losses this year have been more num erous than ever before While the curing barn loss~Eas~ iablished a new record, the loss there has been small compared to the dam age experienced by the growers in the fields. At least ten per cent of the crop has burned in the fields, the reports indicate. Upon that ba sis, it is estimated that the loss there, will run close to-$200,000. Most grow ers saved their sandlugs, but as the curing season progressed, the crop began to ripen so rapidly they got behind in the work and in many in stances three and four leaves were skipped on each stalk. In a few ex treme cases, farmers were able to save only every other curing, leaving groups of leaves at intervals on the stalks. Nearing the completion of the har vesting work this week, Martin County farmers now maintain that the crop is not curing out as heavy ?asTThey"~orrc? believed it. Some state that the crop will weigh ten per cent less than the first estimate indicated it would ? c lian ges Affected In School 1 Faculties The Martin County school teach ing personnel, recognized as fairly stable just a short tune ago, is un dergoing quite a few changes, ac cording to Tate reports coming from the office of the superintendent of schools Professor Foster Fergerson, able hepd of the cuiiinitrcial department in the Williamston schools during the past two years, resigned last week-end to accept a year-around job in Chi rlotte. The position made vacant by his resignation has not been filled, but several applications are being considered, it was learned. Miss Grace Talton, of Clayton, was appointed yesterday to succeed Miss Rebecca Harrison as teacher of the local first giade. Miss Talton. a grad uate of Meredith College, has had several years' experience, having laught at Warsaw and Fairmont. .Miss Harrison resigned week be fore last to accept a position in the High Point schools. Principal C B Martin resigned last week-end after Several years ot successful work in the Farm Life school. He goes to Pantego to head the schools Uuu-A. Hie hrnthpr pnp ulai' Professor hussell Marfin~ieaves the history and science department in the Jamesville school, to head the school at Farm Life. No appointment has been made to the position made vacant in the Jamesville schobl. Several other shifts in the faculty personnel are anticipated, but they have not been officially announced by the office of the county board of education Mrt. A. F. Lilley It The Champion Pepper Grower It's a hot time out in the A F. Lil ley garden, near here, according to reports coming from the little' spot in the fair grounds where Mrs. Lil ley has been acknowledged as the champi^ pepper grower for the sec aond season in succession. looking into one of the several patches that are spotted around her little home yesterday, Mrs. Lilley harvested six large bell peppers from a single stalk. From another stalk she harvested seven large pods at the hot stuff. On another hill she pulled nineteen long green peppers "And they are just medium sample," the champion gardener's husband TownBadgetEstimateA waits Raleigh Commission Sanction Intimating that every effort will ; be made to defeat any increase in the I town tax rate, town officials in reg ; ular session last night postponed a discussion of the new budget figures until the local government commis sion in Raleigh has an opportunity to look the financial situation- over and offer any suggestions deemed necessary. "We want to and will, if allowed, to hold the rate at the same figure, $2.60 the $100 assessed prop erty valuation," Tieasuiei N - ? Green said a few days ago. It is ap parent that the $10,000 swimming pool burden is bearing heavily on the town's financial pillar, and ac cording to a statement offered by $2,200 in cash and bills amounting ! to $3,700. including $1,600 due on the swimming pool filtering plant. However, the town financiers have" ' been able to meet all bond interest and principal payments and virtually hold the. treasurer's head above the water when it came to meeting local obligations. No time was set for hold ing a meeting to discuss the new budget figures, and it is possible that no action will be, taken before the next regular meeting in September. Advised the budget estimate was not yet ready for consideration, the board discussed a few minor ques tions and ordered proceedings start- j -ed to open a IP-font alley between I the Simpson and George Reynolds Hotel property. The board was ad vised that other owners would grant easements. The'commissioners de cided not to sell a small piece of land on Sycamore Street, adjoining the ! municipal water plant, for $750, the ! sentiment of the board being that the . land might be needed in later years I lor a niuhiclpal tTghT plant for some other public enterprise. VICE PRESIDENT /1 Tom K. Brandon, Martin Coun ty's farm agent, was highly hon ored in Raleigh last week when the State Association of County Agents made him vice president of their organization. The elec tion is a stepping stone to the presidency w hich carries with it a free trip to the national live stock show in Chicago next year.

Immediately following the order, employees in the office of the county accountant started pre paring the tax books. Payment of new taxes will be in older some time in September, possibly. There is very little difference in the amounts of the levies for 1938 and 1939, it is one of those cases whore just a little more money will come out of the land tax j pocket and not^juite us,much from I the general pocket While a greater part of the ses I sion was devoted to an inspection of I reports submitted by various coun ty 'departments including those of the j farm and home agents, welfare and ' law enforcement forces, the com missioners spent much time consid | ering an informal application for a permit for the operation of the Wil I liamsion fan this fall.

Averages, ranging up ward to 20 cents a pound, were reported on some of the markets. Farmers were said to be very well pleased with their sales, and comparatively few tags were being turned. With encouraging reports com ing from the liorder, the Wil liamston market is anticipating a successful opening two weeks from today. Few farmers in this section are patronizing the liorder marts.

No cause is advanced for the accident that maimed a four year old child in Jamesvillc last Sunday morning, but suffice it to say it could have been prevented easily It offers just another glaring reason why little tots should be taught the potential dangers lurk ing on the streets and highways and why the speed laws should be enforced At least a dozen cyclists gambled with their lives on Williams ton's main street during the period just ended when they rode the streets unconcerned of the vehicles that darted in front, in back and on the side of them.
