PHONE 10 NORTH CAROLINA STATUTES PERTAINING TO ILLEGAL USE OF MILK BOTTLES Chapter 281, Public Laws of North Carolina: "Sec 1No person", firm or corporation shall use, or permit to be used a milk bottle, or other receptacles de signed as a milk container, or container of dairy products, and having the name, brand, or trade mark of any other person, firm or corporation thereon, for any purpose other than as a milk container, or as a container of dairy pro ducts. "Sec. 2. It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to use or permit to be used any milk bottle, can, crate, or any other container for milk or milk pro ducts wjiich has the name, labeL trade name or inscrip tion of any other person, firm or corporation blown, em bossed or marked thereon. "Sec. 3. That it shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to purchase milk bottles except from a wholesale dealer, retail stores or dairyman having the same for sale and it shall also be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation, other than dealers having the same for sale, to sell any milk bottles: Provided that this act shall not annlv to iudicial sales. . rrt! - q "Sec 4. Any person, firm, or corporation or agent willfully violating any of the sections of this statute snail be guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall be subject to a pen alty of a fine of not more than fifty ($50.00) dollars, or imprisonment of not more than thirty days for each and every violation thereof. "Sec 5. All laws and clauses of laws in conflict here with are hereby repealed. "Sec. 6. This act shall be in full force and effect from and after its ratification. Ratified this the 20th day of April, A. P., 1933." i structures are pretty well picked over. If you must modernl-, renovate, w pBlr. or build, let your t-omnu-ts NOW! KXTKMI I.FASKS NOW The same applies to rents. If you have a favorable lease extend it XOW fur a live-yi-ur ix-riod. After a 1 iter pent advance last year, rents will prob ably increase another 5 per cent in i;,:j7 maybe more in well-located ureas. With the, opUioistie pro.-pecis fur building and rents. I look for- :.r.l to a profitable year for reai estate men with ri-ing values and with activity at least -.mi per cent above l!i(j.

SO WAR IN 17 No one can deny that the oversea situation is critical. Europe and Asia tbday closely resemble the armed camps of 1912-14. A general war in volving Fascism va Communism is in eventable; but a general Buropean War will not come in 1937. There will continue to be revolutions with in nations; but no formal conflict be tween nations. CT'RUKNCY Ol'TIXM)K The most hopeful foreign develop ment of 1936 was the "Gold Bloc" devaluation and three-cornered cur rency agreement between France, England and ourselves. I do not ex rwt hnwever. tliat the dream of In ternational stabillza-tion can become a reality dnrlns 19S7. Improvement in business conditions in Europe ; is tne best remedy for most of its troubles. . CONCLVSION. . As 1937 opens, most of the snarl brought oil by the depression have been untangled. Improvement Ib widespread through all branches of industry, Kmployment is gradually approaching normal once again,; The outlook for the coming twelve months is bright. I predict that as we look back at this New Year season we will remember it as a. momentous mile stone in our business history. Whether we realize it or not today, wo are now placing a headstone over the 1929-1936 depression corpse and bundling up the. 1937-(?) prosperity baby in swaddling clothes. How long this period of prosperity Will last or how far it will go, no once can now say. That depends upon how well we have learned that lasting pros perity only comes through the prac tice of Industry, honesty, thrift, faith, and other basic virtues; Copyright 1937 Publishers Fin ancial Bureau.

(Jne of the must happy occasions was that on u'lulm.udMv eveninir when Mr. Trull, nu.-seyman for Champion Fibre Con Miss Smathers and the county : agent visited nine homes in the Bea-verdam-Thickety section. These homes joined in with the home agent form ing a club among other things, demon strating home Christmas decoration. We hope that next year that a num ber of others will join in. In our opinion, the decoration and everything considered would give Mrs. Paul Rob inson first place; Mrs. H- G. Reno second place; Mrs. Crom Cole, third e place; Mrs. Harley Wright, fourth t rduco. Wts Con Wriirht. fifth place: Mr. Tom Hippe, sixth place. Honor able mention should be given to Mrs. Lowry Burrell, Mrs. Tom Murray and Mrs. Russell. These good ladies used living trees for their Christmas treef. This in itself is a commendable move. It is more economical and prevents the slaughter of so much of our young evergreens.

The county agent's office is work ing on the following schedule this week. Your co-operation will enable us to go forward: December 31. Canton, at the Cham ber of Commerce at 9:00 o'clock. December 31, at Cruso schjo! house at 7:00 p. m; o'clock. January 1, at Ben Wright's in White Oak at 9:00 o'clock. January 4, at Fines Cieek school house at 9:00 o'clock.

We will have to step up production for a long time before we can eve: take up this slack. We are looking to Haywood county farmers to carry im a two arm farming system. Namely, crop production and animal produc tion with the proper balance between the two. Our soil is doomed and we the people are doomed if we unbalance these two.
