Is Called Sept. 8
During recent months several
farmers have expressed a desire to
purchase foundation breeder stock
'or establishing a herd of beef cat
tle. Any farmer interested in bu"-
ing some heifers and a bull, is in
vited to a meeting at the Agricul
tural Building in Kenansville next
Thursday night, September 8, at
7:30. At this meeting, plans will be
made for assisting farmers to. get
the breeding stock they desire.
Within the next few weeks, a large
number of heifers and feeder stock
will be sold in the western part of
North Carolina and Virginia. This
is probably the best time of the
year to purchase breeder and feed'
er cattle, since the commercial pro
ducers will be offering most of
their spring crop for sale soon

of inferior tobacco appearing. -
Leaf grades were from 81 to 89

king leaf, cutters, and bettw lugs
ranged $1 to $2 lower while green
lugs and nondescript lost 82 to 86
generally. Most decreases were
from $1 to $5. Low to good lemon
and orange lugs and primings were
the only grades showing increases.
These grades, used principally by
domestic companies for cigarette
manufacture, were steady to S3
higher. The bulk of the baskets
brought from $?0 to $60. By the
end of the week the practical top
price had moved up to $66, All

one day should be set aside as a

the American worker have charac

Still, thqfe comes that time when

The trip is fraught with danger,
including an Indian attack, a cattle
stampede, and the hazardous cross-
of the famous Red River by
men, horses and cattle.
Although the story possesses the
scope of such classic Westerns as
The Covered Wagon", and "Cimar

producer let his audiences forget
that he has a dramatic story to tell,
story that concerns the tough-
thinking, hard-headed pioneer,
Thomas Dunson, whose methods of
driving his men run counter to the
ideas of Matthew Garth.
There is a certain lady here in
Kenansville that certainly trys to
