?r^4 .^pBBMWBBBBBi* /^^^"^jMiBi .V1** *HI",ai1^^^^^'^^ I 1. <c n 1?QM -~-Sr~ f^t? ??*? ySlie end of almost every previous J ^ Depression is the history of theworfiij has been marked by some kind of a speculative boom. Perhaps the wave of J peculation m geld , mining stocks which started a couple of weeks ago on the,?London Stock Exchange may II paroyg the impetus will brfogl mone^gcJMnvO dmiation rapidly. || More gold was mined in 1982 than in any previous year since .world records began to be kept Most of it came, from Sooth African mines; a big percentage of it frost Canada. Gold is worth more, measured in commodities and labor, than it has ever been. That makes shares in pro ducing gold mines particularly valu able. In times like these no predictions are safe, but I want to -register a guess that the next few months will see a revival of speculation not only in gold mining stock, but m other securities. Speculation does not make prosperity, but it is nearly al ways an evidence that people who control important money have eome to the conclusion that the Worst.!? over, and are taking their money-out of hiding. And that means that pros perity is closer at hand. TAXES and how applied I cannot escape the eownction that the fairest systems -of taxation are Grose that are based dtfectly upon what the taxpayer girts "for his money. Every cigarette smoker payB a six cents tax every rime he buys aj package of twenty ^^arettes,^vt j nobody protests h&aese. nobody ( fe^ls that he is beigr^tajfed."?&w people object to paying the. gasoline tax, the proceeds ?af which make highway improver^ent -afed mainte nance possible. ?r' \;. t_ - "s' I think one weakness or our in > < come tax system is that Incomes from all sources are taxed at the same rate and lumped together. In comes from rents ought possibly be taxed at one rate, incomes from divi dends on stock investments at an other rate, and incomes from the profits of trade at 'still another. More people afe studying this question of taxation, and studying it mor.i intelligently- than ever before. We are going to see radical changes in our taxation system. BATHS in the White House I remember when I was a boy in Washington thai; these was a great debate in Congress over the question of putting a second bathroom into the White House. Mr. Cleveland was President and his political opponents ^ ^ ' - ?' ^ VA tttoo o in congress uowareu wiai uc ?? devotee of luxurious extravagance in wanting more, than one bathroom for the entire Wffite House. I dont know how many bathrooms there a^e in the ? White House now, but my guess^&tjeaist a dozen. But when it wus'sJflpposed in Congress the other *fey%?e > give President Roosevelt money to pot a swimming pool in the White House basement, a n <i Representative Sahaefey--"qf Washington objected on t$e gnwfhd of extnu^gance, I was rteundd^bf - the "furore, over Mr. CfevelaafiV Sathfoom. "There* ate Jots of people in the United ^States #*** don't have swim ming -pools^id Mr. Schaefer. That was pretty' jfceap appeal to unin telhment votprs. He might have there are a lot of people,! also,? who f^ace not President of the Ur.%? States. * " ' ? am^nbments - __? important one Perhaps* .the next' amendment to the Ffederaf Constitution will be t?e ?"??! nf PnohOwtion. hrr? -.there is ??S-i.',!.. another amendment that has been pemftag for ten years, -which may get in a&ftd o? repeal. This ? the amendment*permitting theFedera! Government to bar from interstate commerce the products of the labor ot children under eighteen. Congress passed a law years age 1?; Effect, and the Supreme Court sn^o^^ed 1925L "Question: How can I kill thesmai3 worms Sa'sky tobacco plant beds? Answer: No definite control baa! been worked out for this peat which is the Isrvaeof midges and fungous gnats but a fanner in Robeson coun ty has secured excellent results by treating with naphthalene flakes. These*flakes ate sprinkled over the square yards of bed. Three applica tions were made over a ten-day per iod This treatment stopped the dam fage and did not injure the plants.' i ' . ; : . - t Question; Are- plants or roots beat .for starting dahlias in the home gar den? ;; "Answer; Dahlias grown from root ed cuttings o=* plants will , give just :s many and just as large blooms as shose propagated by means of roots uid will coat about half as much as the roots. On the other hand,* the formation of a good crop of roots by plants is very uncertain. For that reason ^ the roots will probably be more satisfactory. Question: Should newly hatched chicks be left with the hen during the day? Answer: If the sitting hen is quiet during hatching the clucks should he left under her as the body heat is of orop?r temperature, Jf the hen is rest'ass or if several hens are set af the same* time, the chicks may be re moved and kept in a woolen-lined box that is covered with paper until the hatch is over. The chicks should be returned to the hen each night | CHEVROLET'S JANUARY PRODUCTION WAS 64,594 b NEW CARS AND TRUCKS ?. ? * t" Chevrolet built 64,694 new cars and f trucks in January for the largest sin gle month's production since July of 1931, W. S. Knudsen, president and j general -manager of the company an nounced today. The figure exceeds b/ 2,500 units a preliminary estimate made ten days 'ago. Hie January total compares with 52,465 units in January of last year, and with 40,056 in December. Production held a steady rate of 2?0O cars a day for most of the month, with half the company's assembly plants operating six full days a week, Mr. Knudsen stated. Of the January total, 58,400 units went to domestic dealers, and the [ remainder into Canadian and over : ^eas markets, Mr. Knudsen said. ?- Despite the highjrate of operations for the domestic market, no over rtccumulation pf stocks in dealers' ' Jnrt fft Kootnx 'IW1US IQ9ViVCU) UUC IV ?uv ??vw T / ^ mand for new 1933 models for im mediate delivery. By the end of January dealers had delivered at re call about 55,000 of the new 1933 oars which were first announced De cember 17, Mr. Knudsen stated. Operations will ease somewhat in February, a normal seasonal trend with the company, but the total prom ises to run at least to 50,000 units on ?resent schedule setups, Mr. Knudsen declared. Last year's February total was 42,000 units. The increased plant operations are in line with the expanded program which Chevrolet has embarked on for 1933 over last year. The company expects to sell from 450,000 to 500, 900 cars this year as compared with 378,000 in 1982, Mr. Knudsen said. He added that he expects the indus try generally to do better this year than last. Factory payrolls are now about 34,000 men, with an additional 23,000 working for the Eb&er Body corp. ixclusively on Chevrolet-Fisher bodies. Prohibition. SILVER again Nearly two years ago I began commenting & this column on the price of silver end its effect :qpon commodity prices and world trade. Since then a good many intelligent people on both adeeof the Atlantic bave waked up to the fact that the iemonetization of silver in Europe and the resulting of devaluation of the money of the Orient is one of ;he imporatnt causes of low com modity prices and a serious obstacle to international commerce. S I think it can be proved that the of the nre-war nrice ~ - 1 ? ? i.". jr of silver; would be the longest pos sible step toward a revival bf busi ness. That does not mean "sixteen to one,' but it does mean that the di.v cosskas of the Silver question in Congress ought to be taken seriously . l?

"In offering this, new bulletin to fanners of North Carolina, we have summarized a great mass of experi mental data," says Dr. R. Y. Win ters, director of the Station, "runcis1 do not permit us to print a more ex panded publication and we have pur posely left out much data and given only the brief facts which are found-5* ed on data.on file here at the Station. We believe, however, that the peanut grower of the State will find these facts of considerable interest andJ Talue." Dr. Winters points out that the out look, for better prices for peanuts is, not very favorable at this time. For that reason it is advisable for every Trower to use the best methods of production so as to obtain any profit that may possibly be secured. The new publication contains only four pages of text matter and only 5,000 copies have been printed. As long as this supply lasts, copies may be had free to citizens of the Stafe on application to the agricultural editor at State College.

Consider the illusion that there is a mysterious way to give cigarettes a superior "flavor." ixptANATioNi Cigarette flavor can be controlled by adding artificial flavor ings. By blending.
