STANLY STARTS PLAN
FOR RAISING MULES
Stanly County farmers believe that
iiitiimed buying of horses and
males from other secLloiiH to satisfy
local dcmamls is a weak sjiot in
Xoi'Hi Carolina’s agricnlture,
“Thousands of dollars are going
ml of this county every year for a
[ii'odiict tlia,t can and should be
raised on our farms,” says John M’.
Ai'lz, Stanly County farm agent.
“Tlii.s condition can be gradually
I'ciiiodied by every landowner replen-
ishisliiiig lii.s stock when necessary
with good iirood mares purchased
from local dealers, and breeding to a
stallion or jack, both of which aO'e
s'liilablc locally.
“A program of this kind, followed
vor the State, would eventually re-
iimlnte our farms with work ani-
lals, supplying both local and out
side demands. Not only would this
save our farmers ninch money, but
in eases it would give them opportu
nity to increase their cash incomes

ha.y, good summer pastures, the
condition for raising horses and
mules a re almost ideal. The oppor
tunity of increa.aing the farm income
from this source should not be neg
lected.
“The old folks in this county say
that their fathers managed to raise
llicir horses and mules without difti-
culty, but a colt trolling along by
it.s mother is an exceedingly rare
sight nowadays.
“Here in Htauly Comity, however,
we hope to have onr local colt pro-
ilnctioii raised to a much higher
level within the next few years.’

I TIMELY PARAGRAPHS
I Five billion dollars is quite a bit ot
I salt to put on the tail of jirosperity.
j Business is better. Checks are
again coming back marked “No
Funds'" instead of “No Bank.”
I If you help a criminal escape the
law, it’s a crime; if a lawyer does it,
he is still a good citizen.
I Tlin world will also beat a path-
: way to yoiir door if yon build a bet-
; ter clajitrap than your neighbor.
Those who used to sow the wind
and reap tlie whirlwind now sow the
wind and reap government relief.
It is .said the average American
family iiays the doctor a year.
This will be news to the doctor.
The doctor is a useful man, of this
there is scant doubt; be helps us get
into the world and later helps us out.
It’s mi(ldlin*'trne that a lot of our
troubles come from workers wlio
don’t think and tliinkers wlm don’t
work.
Ir isn'i on r.-cord, either, tliat the
sorely-troubled Job ever tried to
shave arniiiiiL a cold sore or fever
blister.
Religion tliat doesn’t abide witli a
man 24 hours a day and 7 days a
week isn’t wouLk taking homo from
chnrcli.
If Governor Talrnadge, of Georgia,
thinks President Roosevelt a. radical,
what does lie think of Senator Long?
The NR.V is something like the pro
hibition amendment. A lot of peo
ple approve it-witliont any intention
of obeying it.'
Tlie average member of congress
doesn’t represent the people so much
as he re]irosents tlie bunch that
scares him most.
The first thing congress will do af
ter the depreSioii disappears will be
to stage a i)0,o0l) investigation to
find out where it wont.
Latest reports indicate that dust
now covers the western farms, water
covers the .Mississipjii Valley farms,
and mortgages cover the rest.
No matter how little tlie average
man know.s about operating his own
business or rnnnirig bis own affairs,
there are two things he is certain he
could run perfectly—liLs government
and his newspaper.

Lasting
accuracy
in this
new
Stevens
Model 330, just out! And this
newest Stevens is fully up to the
traditional family standards. You
never saw such a finish on a shot
gun at anywhere near its price.
That frame is case-hardened—
and polished with a finish that
lasts.
Examine the stock—14 inches
of selected black walnut, finely
checkered. Full pistol grip—solid
rubber butt plate. Model 330 sure
“looks as good as she shoots.”
Next, the barrels—made of
High-Pressure compressed steel.
They have the same lasting ac
curacy that three generations of
sportsmen have found in Stevens
barrels—accuracy obtained by
the special Stevens method of
boring.
But no feature of the new 330
Stevens is more amazing than its
price. You can pay more, a lot
more, but you can’t buy better
shooting qualities.
Ask at your dealer’s, or write
us for complete details.
