In fact the two coun ties will receive only about 83 per cent of their allotted share, it is to be wondered how those at the head of the highway program think anoiir. r road bond issue w ould be taken by the counties in this distr ict that have re ceived only about three fourths of their allotted share because they nave been forced to play Hood Samaritan to a few. other countie in the district TIIE NEW i;o.\Ki> Cleveland county i the <’.>tnUriarg ost cotton producing county in the state—^Clevela;i,J conu'y r.uuddi .-ed the typical farm county of North Ca, olina—Cleveland county is visited frequently by delegations of farmers from other counties in the state seek ing first.hand information on th? county’s successful farm program. These three thing . hoists to a com ing county, were made possible through a wale-awake extension serv ice in co.operatmn with .-.''farm folk that is always eager to eo operate in anything for the improvement of ‘heir county. Wednesday a hoard to ennt tics' farmers and to give added impetus to an intensive farm program was organised. One of th? first moves of thin lut'd, which is truly representative, being made up of a farmer from each township, was to call a mass meeting of all the farmers of the county to be held Mnn- j day at 10:110 in the court--house. The | meeting will bt based around ‘ better fertilization” and should prove high ly beneficial to all who attend. The head of a delegation of farm ers that recently visited Cleveland from another county attributed our farm success to “better fertilization and quicker cultivation.""The Decem ber report of the Farm Forecaster shows tb,at Cleveland led all other counties in the Central Piedmont dis trict in the use of commercial ferti lizers, using during the year of 1923 22,351! tons. Cleveland has stepped to the forefront of North Carolina farm ‘counties and thrown her challenge far and wide as an agrirulUn al lend- j er, but th® other counties are not;1 behind and if Cleveland dc. ( sires to hold the honors that ha\e come to her in recent years she must continue to work with increased zeal and cooperation towards that end. A bound of agriculture for the county should be one of the greatest factors in the county’s future progress, but it must be, supported by the farmers of the county. A large attendance at the mass meeting Monday is a mighty good way of showing co-ope.' ition at the outset. Mr. Kennedy is Proud 1 He Moved to Cleveland lo (lie Editor of The Star.
