GOOD NEWS TO
COTTON FARMERS
Dr. Kilgore Says Selling Move
ment for The Entire South
Is Launched.
Dr. B. W, KMgore, just back from
Memphis Tern., ; brings encouraging
news to the '."cotton growers of thi.s
state. The director of th agricultural
extension service in North Carolina
attended ' the conference of reprc. en
tatives from 12 cotton ' growing
states in Memphis, last week, -returning
to Raleigh yesterday. ; '
Dr. Kilgore brings word that eight
southern states have already adopted
the Fame plan of co-operative mai
keting for cotton as that started in
North Carolina and that in the-e
eight states 84 per cent of the cotton
of America is produced. The pros
pects for the movement grow bright
every day.
The doctor talks enthusiastically
of the class of men attending the con-,
ference. They were not orators but
business men bent on working out
plans for the betterment of agricul
tural conditions in the south. Dr.
Kilgore has been attending conferen
ces of various kinds for several
years just how many he doesn't
like to say and declares that this
was the most business-like, the most
determined and altogether the most
worth-while one he ever attended.
Carefully prepared plans were ap
proved for the organization of the
American Cotton Growers' exchange
through which the state associations
will market their cotton except such
quantities as they can sell more ad
vantageously direct. This will be a
non-stock, non-profit organization
and will be set going as soon as
three states become members.
Already Oklahoma has a going
jnarketing organization with pledges
to sell over 400,000 bales or cotton,
preaching and consecrated work. Both
selling association and the great
state of Texas will soon be in posi
tion to put an association on its
feet. It would not surprise Dr. Kil
gore if they should not be the first
states to join the exchange and start
it going.
States represented at the confer-co-operative
cotton selling movement
ence, which launched the south-wid-were:
California, Arizona, Texas,
Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Ten
nessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Geor
gia, South Carolina and North Caro
lina. CAROLEEN SCHOOL

CYSTOMA HOSPITAL
WILL OPEN JUNE 15
Orthopaedic Hospital For Crippled
Children Will Soon be Ready
for "Tiny Tims."
The (North Carolina Orthopaedic
hospital for crippled . and deformed
children of sound mind, will throw
i ts doors open to t he "Ti ny Ti m s" of
the state about June 15. The num
ber of patients that can be-received
at that time will be limited owing to
the fact that the state's appropria
tion is not available, but it is hop
ed to soon get an amount sufficient to
complete the constructive work.
Speaking of the opening, President
R. B. Babington says
"We have a larger number of appli
cations from children from many
counties all over the state. However,
our activities at first will be limited,
but we desire to get the -applications
on file and handle them as rap
idly as circumstances will permit.
"It is our purpose and desire to ac
cept the younger children, and also
the children with the lesser deform-
ities first, especially the unfortun-
-".te, neglected poor and orphan boy
or girl who has a bright mind, but
has not a gho. t of a show in the
world. Because of their deformities
they cannot work or get tj school,
and are shut in all their lives, grow
up in ignorance, and become a bur
den to the county and state, end live
a life of misery and suffering, with
a mind yearn;ng for free;lcr.i :.r,;
usefulness to man. Hundred.; c. ti,e e
slightly crippled chiMrc.i can l.e nut
on their feet quickly, and return
home ready for school, to develop
into useful, intelligent citzmship.
"Our desire, to help uv.y crip; !;
child that can be tencf ilt
"Our requirement:-, p.;s-ibility of
improvement and sound mind.
"Our non-essentials, religion
creed, fraternal affiliations, social
standing and financial connection:-.
"Our object, tD benefit helpless
humanity to prevent possible pau
perism, to turn wealth consumers to
wealth producers.
"We request the press of the stat?
to whom we accord much credit in
making this great institution possi
ble, to continue with us and help us
in taking every little chippled child
in our state by the hands and tender
ly placing them within this institu
tion and giving them a chance to
make good. p
"We also ask all phvsicians, sur
geons, public welfare superintendents
school teachers, pastors and others
for an application blank for the crip
pled children they have in mind. The
who love their fellowmrn, to write us
blank will be mailed promptly, the
application numbered and filed and
handled according to the provision
that is made for the work."
