We must confess to surprise when
we noticed from a contemporary that
the citizens of Caswell county had
joined the wide awake citizens of Wil
liamsburg township in the recent
achon for the continuance of the
splendid sandclay road, via . Leno"x
Castle, to Caswell county line. ' We
published the report of the proceed
ings before the County Commissioners
in a previous issue, taking it for grant
ed, in the absence of any stress by
our neighbors of Caswell on their par
ticipation in 'this splendid movement
for increased good roads in Rocking
ham Count, that only those actually
living on this thoroughfare in Rock
Ingham county would be so public
spirited as to contribute the use of
teams, topsoil, and right if way to the
completeion of this highway. It now
ippears that fity per cent, of the con
tribution of teams comes f rom our
neighbors af-ross the f!;iswell line.
Caswell county has certainly put
one over on us. nut uasweu county
can depend upon it that when the oc
casion arises for reciprocation, the
citizens of Williamsburg township will
not be found lacking In a similar j.en
erous spirit. Speed the day when tho
occasion may arise. We are just as
desirous of visiting Yonceyville as our
friends In Caswell are to come to
Reldsville, and a good sandclay road
the whole way will serve to widen our
mutual horizons, and break down the
only barriers that now serve to hin
der closer social relations with our
good friends in Caswell county.
BUSINESS BUILDERS
LOST, WANTED, ETC
Promoting Livestock Farming.
Mlssissfppi proposes to move out ot
crop farming merely or mainly and to
occupy the next higher level of farm
tivilization, that of livestock farming.
Diversified cropping in a region un
derstocked with farm animals is a
sentimental not an economic propo
sition. And marketing feed crops on
four legs Is far ahead of marketing
such crops on four wheels.
In the census years N?rth Carol'na
was 37 per cent below the levM of
even lightly stocked farms, which Is
one animal unit to every five acres;
and Mississippi was still further bo-
hind.
But in 1916 the increases in Aflse-
lssippi farm animals over the numbers
of the census year were as follows:
Dairy cows 4 per cent, sheep 1 pet-
cent, horses 12 per cent, mules 14 per
cent, and swine 25 per cent. Stria ;4
to say the meat cattle decreased dur
ing this period. But the gain of 325,f
000 swine in five years is wonderful.
But the gain in livestock grades
was even more wonderful than the
gain in numbers; and in this particu
lar Mr. Davis and Point Comfort 14
have made Mississippi famous. Ev
erywhere we found the papers com
menting upon the importation of
high-bred sires.
Indeed, Mississippi impressed us as
awake and alert about this matter of
livestock farming. The bankers are
financing the Pig Club boys and the
Baby-Beef Clubs. They evidently b
lieve that livestock is a safe bet.
Nearly half the counties are al
ready tick-free, and in 1917 Misslsi
ippl, like Louisiana, goes under
State-wide tick eradication law. In
the month of May nearly 600.000 cat
tie were dipped. That is to say, more
than half the cattle in the State were
dipped in a Blngle month.
The State has not done so well in
agricultural industries creameries
condenseries, cheese factories, and
the like. We located only 11 butter
factories in the State, and only one
of those was a co-operative concern
This particular creamery is located
on the A. & M. campus. The college
is campaigning livestock farming,
dairy industries, and co-operative en
terprises with rare vigor and wis

COUNTY FAIR PREMIUM LIST

I ne premium list or the third an
nual Rockingham County Fair for
October 3-7, 1916, will be mailed on
request.
The management desires to state
to the public that the aim of the As

and better than its predecessor and
consequently is spending more money
in each department.
Seven large tents will be used to
house the exhibits, which will give
ample space for attractive displays in
every department.
The most thrilling attractions that
money can buy will be brought here
for this occasion, Including aeroplane
flights, balloon ascensions, fire-works
and numerous other out-door fea
tures. '."'

Independent shows and concessions

midway.
