Our Museum.
As we study our United States
history this year, we are going to
make a museum. In this museum
we are going to place' many inter
esting things that will represent the
different peroids of hiatoiy.
We have already studied about
the exploration period. Our teacher,
has shown . us some pictures and
told~ us about Indians, and we have
read stories. . Each member of the
class will make something the In
dians used. We have already made
pottery, bows and, arrows, rugs
beads, tomahawks, peace pipes, and
Indian clothing. During the year
ye hope to make many other things.

Changing conditions in farming, re;;,
suiting from the recent inroads of
a pest on the cotton of Southern far
mers have brought about oue ma_
jor improvement in the growing of
cotton. Every effort to make the
maturing of cotton take place at an
earlier date has been made by the
farmers of the south in order that
the Inroads which the boll weevil
has been making on the crop may
be curtailed. Growers of ^eed have
been bending their efforts breed
swd that will grow an earlier, cot.
ton and farmers in their cultivation
have worked toward this same idea.
That these efforts ha(re been to
an extent successful has been prov
ed by the reports on cotton ginned
in Hoke county during the past
month. Cotton farmers all over the
county have had an earlier crop
as is proven by the ginning report
The tabulation of card reports shows
that there have been 1,899 bales, of
cotton ginned in Hoke County from
the 1930 crop, prior to September
16, and that at- this same date in
1929 there had been only 397 bales
ginned. The remarkable difference
between the two totals shows that
this year’s crop is to a large degree
earlier than that" of last year.
Farmers who have found that by
the early maturing of their cotton
