But perhaps the most exciting cap ture was that Tuesday night whenFred Deal of Asheville was arrested with thirty gal Ions of liquor. The Sheriff was chasing him when the Sheriff's tire blew out, where upon, Deputy Dedenck Bow man proved himself to be an expert drive? and succeeded in overtaking and bringing to jus tice the offender. The Sheriff gives Mr. Bowman credit and have to depend on the butter maker in the plant and often times this man has been trained in the local plant without out side knowledge. We expect to secure samples of butter from fiye dWerent churnings each month, to urate chemical analyses of these: and then to score the butter from a phys ical standpoint. A report will be made to the creameries each month showing the score of the local product and the averages of the butter made by the other creameries. We will give each creamery a key number kept on file in this office so that one creamery might not use the report to the detriment of another in an advertising way." Mr. Arey states that this re port will enable the creamery to keep up the quality of the butter being manufactured and will help the local man agers to produce a better qual ity of product by pointing out its good and poor qualities.

During the years from 1916 to 1920 a series of six tests was conducted at various places in eastern Carolina on the early crop by Dr. R. W. Leiby, of the North Carolina Experiment Station.' staff. In this section the potatoes are hurried to ma turity, beln? planted early and heavily iertihzed' H5re he most important factor is-the po tato beetle though early blight occasionally attacks the vines and hills before the potatoes are ready to harvest. In each f the tests, certain rows were sprayed, some were dusted and others were left untreated as check. ' In checking his results, Dr. Leiby found' that where the vines were sprayed with the poisoned Bordeaux mixture the yield was at the rate of 144 bushels per acre. Where the vines were not so treated, the yield was only 70 bushels per acre. This Is a gam from spraying of 74 bushels per a cre. In dry seasons, Dr. Leiby also secured good results with dusting, using one part of lead arsenate to six parts of finish ing lime. Dr. Leiby says, ' As a rule it is safest to use the poisoned Bordeaux mixture at least in the last two applications though the first application may be a dust. Our experi ence shows that the grower should not sp"ray sparingly but must use enough material to cover ,, all parts of the vine thoroughly. This will require from 100 to 125 gallons of li quid, per acre. Any grower The Maryland State Depart ment recently published a bulletin giving a number of in teresting replies to the mira tion, "What do the teachers of Maryland think is beinor ac complished by the supervision of teaching?'' The following extracta taken from the replies of seven teachers are typical : "The supervisor is often more aware of the individual needs of the school than the teacher herself.' "The beginning teacher and the experienced teacher in out lying districts need more than anything else some one who un derstands and can cheer the teacher on her way." lo discontinue supervision would mean a loss to taxDavers of our county in the less effect ive work of the inexperienced teachers, the careless work of indifferent ones and in loss of inspiration to the hardworking, conscientious group of teach ers." - The supervisor keeps me in touch with the work beinor done in the Other schools in my county, and with the activities of the State at large." "This makes my second year of teaching and I feel that the progress ! have made is due to the encouraging words, the helpful methods, and the wise judgment of my supervisor.'' "I have taught school for 35 years. For years I measured myself by myself which is the poorest measure to use. Dur ing pay two years' teaching un der? supervision I have found new means by which to meas ure my, work." . "Supervision aids a teacher in finding her weak and stronv . points, nd -does mere toward overcoming the weak points and strengthening , the strong ones than does any other thing in the school life." A man complained bitterly of the conduct of his son. He related at length to an old friend, ill the young man's es capades. "You should speak to him with firmness and recall him to his duty," said the olcT friend. "But he pays not the least attention to what I say. He listens only to fools. I wish you would talk to him. The North Carolina state sweepstakes of the National Seed Corn Show was won bv J. A. Pattersan of China Grove, Rowan county, but he was later defeated by Mrs. Elsie M.
