WAL] CHAMPION- CHOPPER CHAMPION WOOD CHOPPER COMING TO THIS COUNTY Peter McLaren, who claims the wood chopping champion ship of America, will stage a log cutting contest and dem onstration at the Rose Hill Hardware Co., Rose Hill, at 10 o’clock Saturday, September 14, and at noon on the same day he will repeat his performance at J. A. Smith’s store in Magnolia. Both these firms are to be congratulated on arranging the visit of this colorful champion, McLaren, whose wizardry with an axe has carried him from a poor farm lad in Australia to the peak of his profession. The contest is open to any local man who has not previ ously competed against Mc Laren. A prize of fifty dollars will be paid to any contestant if McLaren fails to chop through a log in two thirds of the time the contestant takes. The handicap gives all good choppers a sporting chance to win the prize money, as it is just like giving 33 yards in a hundred yard dash. The only restriction made is that no contestant be permitted to use a Plumb Axe. This is the only axe which McLaren himself ever uses, and he re fuses to chop against a Plumb Axe and also allow the handi cap. McLaren is also scheduled to stage a demonstration at the annual Field Day at the Coas tal Plain Station on Sept. 12th.

Climax ing the record breaking week ending August 23rd when 3, 000,148 pounds of tobacco was sold the Whiteville market es tablished a new record by sel ling 3,015,142 pounds of this money crop last week, or 14,494 pounds more than was sold during the previous week. This week’s sales also brought most satisfactory p r i c es. Even though mid week sales were dominated by common, or low grade tobacco, $690,598.14 was paid to the farmers of Eastern North and South Carolina; an average of $22.91 or only $1.45 per hundred pounds less than these men received for last year's offerings during the same marketing period. It is useless to say that thousands of happy farmers left White vi}le with pay checks far in ex cess of the amount they ex pected when they came there. Whiteville’s tobacco market opened the past week by selling the largest amount of tobacco ever sold in any one day on a three sale market. Unusually large baskets enabled the buy ers to bid in 1,009,368 pounds of the leaf and since Monday’s offerings were by far better than was spread on the floors any other day in the week, a higher average was received for this days sale. This sale of more than 1,000,000 pounds av eraged $25.97 per hundred, however, it can be said that Mondays prices were no high er than those paid on other days of the week. The . White ville market has been unusual ly steady ever since opening day and if the quality of the weede offered each day had been the same there would have been no difference in each day’s individual average. Unless further reeports are received from the Whiteville market, news of this week’s sales are no available, however, pn Saturday it was reported that tobacco which has been streaming into the city since late Friday afternoon was ra pidly filling the six warehouses of this marketing town, and a sale near one million pounds was expected for Monday. With a season poundage of 9,493,792 after August 30th's sale and this week’s sales expected to be equally as heavy in all pro bability as this news story is read the Whiteville market will have passed the 12,000,000 pound mark. This means that this fast growing market has sold as much tobacco during the first 20 marketing days of the present season as was sold there all of last year. Imports in July 13 per cent above June. District of Columbia, have re ceived less than their quota of appointments in the apportion ed departmental service at Washington, D. C. Full information may, be ob tained from the Secretary of :the fJnitjfd States Civil Ser vice Board of Examiners at the post office or customhouse in any city which has a post of fice of the first or the seceond class, or from the United States Civil Service Commission, at Washington, D.

Sept. 5-12-19-26 Oct 3-10 —753 sale: THE "STRONGEST" PAIR IN THE WORLD! r? gasoline had muscles, two Gulf gasolines would bulge with them! For these two gasolines—Gulf No Nox Ethyl Aviation Grade, and That Good Gulf Gasoline—are the “strong men” among gasolines! Pick either one of them for your car, and you’ll get new get-away, punch and drive. For example: Gulf No-Nox Aviation Grade is a gas good enough to fly planes—and does. Put it in your tank and you won’t have to imagine a difference—you’ll notice it before you’ve gone a mile. A premium gas—but well worth the two cents extra. And if you still want to pay the regu lar gas price, try That Good Gulf Gaso line. It’s five good gasolines in one. Controlled refining gives it not one quality of an ideal gas—but all five! Try either of these two gasolines—* and we’ll wager you’ll never leave in ( R. M. CARR, Distributor / Wallace, N. C.

WHEN THE BORDER BELT MARKETS OPENED WHITEVILLE WAS RECOGNIZED AS THE FASTEST GROWING OF ALL THIS BELTS BIG MARKETS. . . AS THIS ADVERTISEMENT IS READ THE WHITEVILLE TOBACCO MARKET HAS SOLD MORE TOBACCO DURING THE FIRST 20 DAYS OF THE MARKETING SEASON THAN IT DID ALL LAST YEAR. WHITE VILLE IS STILL THE FASTEST GROWING MARKET OF THE BORDER BELT, AND THIS MEANS THAT WHITEVILLE IS THE The Most Popular Tobacco Market In The BORDER BELT WHY IS WHITEVILLE THE MOST POPULAR TOBACCO MARKET IN THE BORDER BELT? WHY IS WHITEVILLE GAINING ON_ ALL OTHE MARKETS SO RAPIDLY? Because A Tobacco Grower Knows THAT HE IS ASSURED OF THE HIGHEST PRICE THAT THE BUYING COMPANIES ARE PAYING WHEN HE SELLS IN WHITEVILLE. MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY OR FRIDAY . . . IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHICH DAY IN THE WEEK HE SELLS, HE ALWAYS GETS THE TOP OF THE MARKET. Whiteville More Dollars For Your Tobacco b .■ . •
