County produc er , to market through the WC Commercial Egg Cooperative. Theseeggs are being picked up at the farm by the cooperative, once a week during the winter and twice a week during the summer. Eggs are then graded, candled and marketed for the producers. Presently, commercial eggs are marketed by this cooperative on five northern markets. The price the farmer receivesfor his eggs is the northern market price and it Is normally considerably highre than local market prices. There appears to be plenty of room for expansion in the number of eggs being marketed and it it expected that the northern market al ready established, can handle up tofive times' the present volume which. i& 600 cases, of 30 dozen i:i (Continued To Last Page) LIONS ELECT CABE, END CONVENTION a, r piay Daseoaa tnis sumiwerf' , Further plans will be. published in next week's issue of this news paper.

Thm .Apans that for each 100 pounds of aitvmo- nium Nitrate an additional Jyield of 16 'bushels of corn can be re alized. - Ammonium ' Nitrate is ; a- vailable to farmers In Madison County, at .a reasonable? price, throughythe Madison County Land Use Association,. ' handled v ib y Teague Milling Company in Mar shall. This nitrogen, is available at a price of $3.90 per hundred pounds. I would like to urge fanners to topdress their grain corn with, at least, 300 pounds of Ammonium Nitrate per acre and, - at least 400 pounds of Ammonium Nitrate on silage corn. It is possible to, economically, apply even higher rates. Any form of nitrogen is good to topdress corn with, but Ammonium Nitrate is the best buy that farmers can obtain in the county at the present time. State Republican Chairman William E. Cobb Tuesday got little satisfaction from the State Elections-Board in Raleigh on com plaints concerning the fall's elec tion in Madison County. Cobb said that practices in Madison County have led to a situation that "stinks to high heaven." He asked the ' state board to station watchers at precincts in Madison at this fall's general e lection; he complained that the Madison board does not follow re commendations by the Republican party in appointing Republican e lection judges, and he complained that poll books in which the names of tliose voting are record ed : are not kept properly in same Madison precincts and then cannot be found after the election. Maxwell told Cobb that (1) the board has no authority to station watchers at the polls but that under the law the Republican party is entitled to station official watchers at every precinct (2) that although the law says the Re publican party in a county may re commend a list of ' Republicans e lection judges, the law . does . not require the county board to accept . U HIUA.m.Jn.'Afli Ot .lint Vw had received the copy of a mine- ographed letter . which the Madi son election board chairman said to sent to all resristars directing hem-, to keep poll books properly. Cobb asked the state board what i it would ' do to Insure "honest e lections ; in ': Madison" " and . the chairman, J. M. Bryan Answered : that the state board could not as sunje that the election would not be horn st. . Cobb also'said ha had evidence . that Maxwell's ' office had : sentr copies of official ballots far t'ae May 28 primary to persons other than the chairman of county e- lections boards. - Maxwell said that was' not true except that he had sent Cobb three official , Republican ballots along with a bout 1,000 sample 'ballots so that Cobb would 'ncw what color they were and could recognize them.' - Local 'Members f ' '''.'-;'-,',-'v"-'-?: '-..''.'
