Eleven cases of persons killed or wounded when a hunter stumbled and fell Were reported during the three year period. This year Hamnett expects three of the shooters to be under 21 years of age, and seven of the victims to be minors.

They are members of the 10,000-strong Air Force Medical Service, and serve with Air Force doctors and nurses in modern Air Force hospitals a round the world.

' EDITORIALLY SPEAKING You Should Be A Member Of The North -Carolina Farm Bureau; If Is Yours Each year the Farm Bureau con ducts a drive for membership about this time of year throughout North Carolina. Lenoir County has set a goal of 1, 476 Farm Bureau members for 1960-61. To date, only 503 members have been signed. Let us look at Moseley Hall Town ship, a thickly settled rural area of Lenoir County; inaddition to having the Town of LaGrange located with in its bounds. The goal set for Moseley Hall Township this year is 185. The last report on the number of person who have paid their $5.00 membership fee is just 33. Somewhere along the way, some body or the organization for Farm Bureau in this area and in Lenoir County is falling down. On what do we base our opinion The Weekly Gazette has always joined the Farm Bureau. Last year, we were not contacted to join and sent our 35.00 membership fee to the State Office. We were alaced there in the Duplin County organi zation, which is one of the most ac tive Farm pureau County organiza tions in North Carolina. So far this year, We have not been contacted or asked by any member of the Lenoir County solicitating crew to join the Farm Bureau, that is from Moseley Hall Township. We have been asked to join the Duplin group again. The Farm Bureau is a fine organ ization and is the' only organization which can Speak for the farmer. It should be , the desire of every far mer, to. become an active member Of the Farm Bureau. It should also be the desire of every busines3 man in LaGrange and Lenoir County to become a member of the Farm Bureau. i If farmers were to pull together and work together through organiza tions such as the Farm Bureau, then the farmer's lot would be a Terry Sanfofrd Says Tobacco And Cotton Take Place Along Side Schools For A Better Tarheelia Tobacco and cotton, Norfth Caro lina's top two money crops, took their place alongside better schools this week as top issues in Demo cratic gubernatorial nominee Terry Sanford's ' campaign. . The question of tobacco came to the forefront when Republicans an nounced their Secertary of Agricul ture Ezra Taft Benson, a non-smoker who has opposed the Democrat ic parity program for tobacco, would speak at the N. C. State Fair on Cct 12. At. the Democratic Third Congres sional District rally at Jacksonville Thursday night, Sanford offered to oei mat tne itepuDiican guoernator ial candidate would not show up when Benson spoke. : ' By Friday night, Republican State Chairman William Cobb announced that Benson probably would cancel his scheduled trip to North Carolina in order to go to South America "in Averaged .........

Doctors take it seriously. Allergic diseases are seldom fatal, but the symptoms are always distressing. Sometimes there is so much discom fort that work, sleep appetite, and recreation' are interfered with and general health suffers. ( '. Allergy ' Is sensitivity, or hyper sensitivity, to substances which are1 harmless to most people. About one person in ten is allergic to some thing. The substances that cause al lergy are caBed allergens, and there er hundreds, even thousands of possibilities: pollens, house dust, furs, various foods, feathers, cosme tics, drugs, and evefl beatj colfl, and sunlight The most common al lergic diseases are hay fever, ast hma, skin disorders like hives, and stomach and intestinal disturban ce, v better one today. - We shall join the Lenoir Coutny Farm Bureau this year, but it now appears that we will have to go out of our way to do so. This should never be the case. Some system of contacting merchants and farmers should be devised which would make it easy for farmers to join the Farm Bureau and pay their membership fee. The Farm Bureau has done a great deal for the farmer. What would ihe tobacco program be to day without the Farm Bureau? We. believe the record shows that toba cco would be nothing without the program which Farm Bureau has fostered to its present strong state. Due to the efforts of the Farm Bureau, legislation was secured to permit a refund of the State and Federal taxes en gasoline used for non-highway purposes. This amount to 10 cents per gallon. Not only here in Lenoir County are there few members of the Fnrm Bureau, but throughout the State. There are only one-fourth of the farmers in North Carolina members of the Farmer organization. This should be changed. At ieast 75 per cent of all farmers should be part of tne organization. We would like to encourage you to think seriously about this, and if you have to go out of your way to join the Farm Bureau, then by all means do so It could be the making of a stronger farm program and an organization through which all the members could be heard. The intangible profits can be real ized from Farm Bureau member ship only when the farmers join and weather out the difficulties like they utilize the advantage, There is no other organization of farmers, by farmers, for farmers like it any where. You should be a part of it. as a farmer and as a person inter' ested in agriculture. connection with the Latin American aid program." Commenting on the apparent change of mind by the Republicans, State Democratic Chairman Bert Bennett said: "I'm sure North Car olina farmers will send their sym pathy to South American farmers." Better schools, which Sanford has made the cornerstone of his cam paign, took the spotlight when San ford exhibited phostatic evidence that his Republican opponent last spring endorsed the same United Forces for Education program that the "conservative" candidate has been attacking lately Sanford, who grew up around the cotton patches and tobacco fields of Scotland County, assured thousands at the Cleveland County Fair that cotton is not dead in North Carolina. , Speaking in Shelby after an early morning press-conference in Ral eigh and an ' inspection of small $69.73 . ; ' O i icxm mm These diseases are not imaginary. If you have allergic symptoms, you should get medical advice both for Immediate" relief and future pro tection. The' doctor can make tests to discover the allergens which are causing trouble. Sometimes this is easy, but frequently it requires great patience. Once the causes are discovered, you can learn to avoid the trouble makers as much as possible. Drugs may be prescribed to ease the sym ptoms. In some cases injections, medicines, and vaccines are given to desentitize the patient. With complete cooperation with your doctor, you will be able to save your self from years of unnecessary suf fering and disability. watershed projects in Rowan Coun ty, Sanford pointed out that cotton is still the number two money crop in this jtaH.
