C. Salter, of the division of markets in the North Carolina De partment of Agriculture. “The problem of the farmers is not only the economical production of crops and livestock but also the eco nomical buying of supplies, materials and equipment needed in production and the economical selling of crops and livestock once they are produced. “It is the farmers' job to set up their cooperative marketing organiza tions. But there is needed leadership, training and education. And it ap pears now after considerable thought and study of the work that the or ganizations generally known as the mutual exchange ft the need of Wash ington County. Mutual exchanges are incorporat ed organizations. Each member shares in the profits of the organiza tion in proportion to the amount of business done through it by him. No individual can own more than 20 per cent of the stock. Each member has only one vote regardless of the number of shares he owns. "The purposes of the organization are to market agricultural products; buy farm supplies and equipment; de velop group marketing and group pur chasing, and teach standardization and grading in connection with marketing activities. “The operation of mutual market ing organizations in any event should be conducted upon sound business principles. Persons of responsibility and integrity should manage the or ganization. Purposes of the organi zation should be agreed upon by the membership and should be adhered to strictly. ' “The chief functions of these ex changes is to market farm products for its members. As a rule there is not enough volume of each crop to ] justify commodity organizations. So ' the farmer is more interested in an or- 1 ganization that will handle all of his crops. Commodities should be hand led by departments and dividends from each kept separate. “In performing the function of mar keting one of the best services is the assembling, grading and packing of produce for marketing. This service is invaluable and is performed by the organization more economically than by the individual. “The chief advantage of these ex changes is the ability to provide mar kets for the many crops grown by the average farmer. Then, too, it is a lo cal affair and local members can set tle their grievances much quicker and more satisfactorily than by a large overhead organization at a distance. “More of these exchanges are be ing formed every week. And each /County should have one,” concluded ^lr. Salter. -® “The Wet Parade’’ To Be Shown at State Theatre He dared to tell the truth—sensa tionally, dramatically—in one of the greatest stories ever written for the American screen. A giant romance of the times based on the sensational novel by Upton Sinclair and unfolded in Metro-Gold-j wyn-Mayer’s new picture, "The Wet; Parade” that will be shown in the. State Theatre here Monday and Tues-1 day of next week. Walter Huston plays the leading part in this supreme thrill of the mo tion picture screen supported by Dorohty Jordan, Lewis Stone, Neil Hamilton, Myrna Loy, Wallace Ford, Joint Miljan and Virginia Bruce. James Cagney and Joan Blondell will be seen Wednesday and Thurs day nights in “Blond Crazy” while Tom Tyler comes up for another western thriller on Friday and Satur day nights with “Galloping Through” and chapter six of the “King of the Wild.” Young Boy Jumps Into the Roanoke To Hide Whiskey -* Bootleggers here keep close to the water with their wares. A young boy here suspected of hav ing whisky in his possession suddenly turned a corner to glimpse Chief of Police Brown riding toward him. So the young man ran toward the river with a bag under his arm and plunged into the waters with his clothes on. When the young man swam back to shore the oag was gone. And he took no time to search for it. It was ,Officer Brown's idea that he deposited the “evidence” in the botL m of the Roanoke River. DANCE RECITAL MONDAY NIGHT Was One of the Features of the Commencement Program Here -- One of the features of the commence ment exercises took place on Monday evening at the school auditorium when Mrs. Ernest H.

The con cluding number was “I See You" by the entire class. Part two was springtime playlet, with Joan Stier, as spring, sitting upon a snow-white throne. The members of the class were dressed in blue, red pink and yellow, with big silver wings to impersonate fairies. Pages were Philip Liverman and Howard Ange. The entire playlet was given with an outdoor scene with the cast costumed in the pastel shades, which mingled beautifully during the attractive dances of the sunbeams, raindrops, and flow ers. Miss Edith Edmondson presided at the piano and rendered a number of delightful selections, while Henry Grey gave several numbers on the trumpet. The affair was largely attended and greatly enjoyed by a large audience. -® Will Summarize Salvation Army Work Sunday, 7 p. iu. -® Mr. and Mrs. Brewer will give a summary of their work at the Young Peoples’ meeting at the Christian Church here Sunday evening at 7:00 o’clock.

MAKES PROFIT ON SMALL FARM -<§> Reports Reveal Number of Farmers Made Money Last Year -® Reports received at State College through the North Carolina Bankers’ Association indicate that there are good farmers in North Carolina who made money last year despite low prices and unfavorable economic con ditions. In the last few days, Charles A. Sheffield, assistant extension director, has received 63 reports from farmers who are candidates for the grade “A” certificate as sponsored by the Agri cultural Committee of the bankers’ or ganization. Mr. Sheffield has been studying these reports so that certifi cates might be issued to all those making a grade of 80 per cent and above. A typical example ot a farmer who is living at home and making some money is M. L. Adderholdt, of Lex ington, Route 4. Mr. Adderholdt owns 100 acres of land of which 80 acres are cleared for cultivation. Last year he sold $1,707.04 worth of prod uce from this place as follows: certi fied small grain seed, $510: veal and pork, $199.44: garden vegetables, $35: sweet potatoes, $20; irish potatoes, $16; eggs and poultry, $66.60; fruit, $35; cotton, $360, and truck crops, $400. In addition to these sales, Mr. Ad derholdt grows enough vegetables and fruit for the use of his family and some to save for winter. He grows all the grain and forage for his live stock; has enough pork, milk, butter, eggs and poultry for home use and keeps his land in a high state of fer tility by growing legume crops. He Jimes about 20 acres of land each year, using about 500 pounds of lime stone an acre to keep the soil in a sweetened condition. The income of $1,700 is almost clear net cash and shows the possibilities of farming, even during a depression period, when good methods are fol lowed. -® PAY AS YOU GO FARM SYSTEM IN CRAVEN COUNTY -$ Strict Economy and Wise Planning Called For By New Method --s. Craven County farmers have started a pay-as-you-go system of farming this season in which they endeavor to pay cash for all farm operations and have enough between season crops and livestock or poultry to keep the farm on a cash basis. The plan calls for strict economy and wise planning but Craven farm ers have had experience in economy | since the epidemic of bank failures! and other reverses have thrown them, largely on their own resources. The| record of the Craven County Farnt-j ers’ Mutual Exchange has already been of inspiration to other groups of landowners in North Carolina and the formation of the new saving and loan association is another movement that is attracting attention. v C. B. Farris, county farm agent of Craven, says it is rather hard to en visage the farmers of his county be ing on a pay-as-you-go basis when it is realized that 354 of them applied for $55,235.44 in government seed loans yet it is a fact, he says, that new money to the extent of $18,203.92 has come to the county by reason of between crops, fat steers, fat hogs, poultry and eggs. The Gaskins community of near Vanceboro is the best example of the pay-as-you-go type of farming. This is due largely to the inspiration of young Rudolph Gaskins who has found that he can grow early truck and other crops to fit in with his scheme of cash crops without sacri ficing anything to the new idea. The income from these sideline crops has already meant $4,200 to the commun ity and will mean more when the 300 acres now planted to beans, early sweet corn, squash and early sweet potatoes come into hearing. Other farmers are selling eggs, poultry, hogs and steers to pay their way on a cash basis. Mrs, Mae Mc IIwean of the Bellair community has put their farm on a cash basis by an income of $50 a w'eek from sales at the New Bern curb market.

The State Board of Health is spon soring a state-wide campaign to last an summer in an errort to get an im munized population. It will provide any assistance within its power, but counties having no health organization providing either full-time health offi cer. nurse, or sanitary inspector, like Washington County, needs the special assistance much worse. This campaign should he organized on a county-wide basis so that the din" ics will cover each section so that as many as possible will have the oppor tunity of benefiting front this free med ical service that will help check the ravages of these contagious diseases, which can he so easily prevented by the proper treatment.
