ELKIN HOLDS LEAD
IN SURRY LEAGUE
Gives Dobson 11 to 2
Licking In Game
Played Saturday
Elkin continues to win in the Sur
ry County league. Last Wednesday
they played Level Cross a game
which was rained out several weeks
ago, handing them the little end of
a six to one score. Little Charlie
Oough let the Level Cross sluggers
down with four hits, all of which
were singles, while his team mates
were collecting seventeen singles
from the delivery of Snow, four of
which were home runs by Parker,
iGough and Royal.
Last Saturday Elkin journeyed to
Dobson and handed the Capital rep
resentatives an eleven to two* de
feat. In this game Elkin collected
fifteen hits from the delivery of
Thomas and Southard while Law
rence Gough was holding the Dob
son sluggers to four hits. Daviß.
Parker and Crater were the hitting
stars for Elkin while P. Badgette
led for Dobson with a home run and
double.
Dobson and Elkin will clash again
Saturday in Elkin and the game is
sure to be a good one as both teams
still have a chance to win out and
they are- fighting to that end. It
will pay anyone interested in base
ball to see these games as Elkin has
a creditable club, well-balanced from
every angle. At the present Tom
Parker is leading the club with the
stick, his average for all Surry
County league games being 628.

DISTRESS AFTER MEALS
Relieved By Black-Draught
"I had sour stomach and gas,"
writes Mr. Jess Wiggins, of Daw
■onville, Ga„ "and often I would
have bilious spells. I read about
Thedford's Black-Draught and be
gan to take it. It relieved me of
tfils trouble. I keep It all the time
now. I consider It a fine medicine.
I take a pinch of Black-Draught after
meals when I need It. It helps to
prevent sick headache and to keep
the system In good order."
"Get a package at the store. Try It!
Now you can get Black-Draught tn

The Bank of Elkin
A Home Bank For Home Folks
And We're All Squarly Behind It!
The opening of The Bank of Elkin as a home bank for home
folks shows that the spirit of cooperation in Elkin is not dead.
Thanks to her citizens—and the citizens of this section— mtL. .
bank has opened for unrestricted business. NnA
Surry Hardware Company, together with the other business
houses and citizens of the town, stands squarely behind the
new bank. We wish for it 100 per cent success. And to
Mr. Lewellyn, president and cashier, we extend a hearty
welcome to Elkin.

growers in their efforts to obtain
a fair price ,for their product. "How
ever. the Federal tobacco admnlstra
tion is not in a position to deal with
unorganized masses."
Urging farmers to organize and
form agreements to raise prices, he
said that "Under the 'New Deal' as
inaugurated by President Roosevelt
and represented in the Adjustment
act, the farmers have an exceptional
opportunity to get equitable treat
ment—the first opportunity in the
history of agriculture. They should
not let this opportunity slip by.
"The problem of organizing is not
a difficult one, since the farmers
already have* a skeleton in their
!some 68 mutual farm commodity
exchanges now in operation in the
state. These exchanges could be
used in an emergency to deal with
the important problem of obtaining
a fair exchange for tobacco."
He pointed out that growers
could easily join these exchanges
and their representatives could
jointly submit to the Federal Gov
ernment an agreement governing
the marketing of tobacco this year
and the price to be received.
"The grading problem would be
difficult, but for the time being the
buyers' grades might be used which
jrould later be substituted for a uni
form government grade."
Timely Farms Questions
Answered At N. C. State
QUESTION: What can be planted
on the acreage taken out of wheat
production this fall?
ANSWER: Only food and feed
crops for home consumption may be
grown on the land taken out of pro
duction. Any soil improving crop,
however, such as lespedeza, soy
beans, peas or any of the clovers
may be grown together with those
crops planted to prevent erosion.
The same ruling covers that land
on which cotton was destroyed.
QUESTION: What minerals, in
addition to salt, should be fed dairy
animals?
ANSWER: Calcium and phos
phorus are the two main require
ments. Under ordinary circum
stances, however, these minerals
are found in sufficient quantity in
the balanced ration. During the
early part of the lactation period a
good producing cow will draw on
the mineral reserve stored in the
bones, and it is therefore advisable
to add two pounds of a mineral mix
ture composed of finely ground
limestone and steamed bone meal
to each 100 pounds of the concen
trate ration. This will help restore
the minerals taken from the bone.
QUESTION: Is it satisfactory to
develop pullets on corn alone if
there is an ample supply of green
feed?
ANSWER: While a great many
farmers are carrying out their feed
ing program in this way it is not
satisfactory and will result in a
low vitality of the flock and in
many instances leg weakness finay
appear before the birds come into
lay. For best results the developing
birds should have a mash before
them at all times. This mash will
build up vitality and develop latent
laying qualities.
The 5,500 mile line between Can
ada and the U. S. A. is the "longest
undefended boundary line in the
world.
