POULTRY CARS WILL RUN U.N REGULAR SCHEDULE The first ear will be piau d at the Seaboard depot, SheiL-;, On Wed jjef.iay January 19th. This car will he oaded between the hours of 9 a m. and 3:30 p. m. The following prices will be paid: liens (colored) 23c; leghorns 20c ■.tile's 18c; cocks, 11c; ducks, 20<; arid Reese 15c. [ would suggest that all farm fis and poultrymen having poultry io i watch the county papers for the notices of the dates on which th> e Cars will run, and the prices that will be paid. The dates on which cars will run have not been decided upon, but if the tonnage will warrant it, I will make arrangements for cars to run evrry two weeks, regularly. In order that I may make an or derly arrangement of dates, I wouid suggest that all who need my assistance in culling their flocks notify me, stating the number of birds and time they desire to have th" culling done. Those who desire to feed their birds a fattening ration six or eight days before selling should not -make the mistake of feeding whole grain (corn) but use a soft few!, one that can be. quickly and e;.-ily digested. The following makes a good mixture: Corn meal 12 wheat bran 4 pounds, wheat middling 4 pounds, meat scraps, 1 pound. Butter milk may be substituted for meat scraps. If you cannot secure the above ration, use cornmeal and butter milk for it is a much better fatten ing ration than whole grain, blith er mixture should be fed at regu lart intervals, two or three times daily, using the amount the birds' will eat in fifteen or twenty min utes, and remove any surplus not consumed. The mixture must be fresh when fed. ALVIN HARDIN, Co. Agent. County Farmer Has New Cereal v • v • V ashburn, member of the mard of county commissioners of < Icveland county. has made a dis covery which will lessen the house wife s worry and do something to ward relieving the strain on the farmer’s pocketbook, reports Mrs. Irma Wallace, home agent for this county. The finding is in the nature of a home-grown, home-prepared cere:,! for the table. .Mr. Washburn takes good old Cleveland county wheat grinds it on an old-fashioned cof fee mill to about the consistency of ground coffee, then cooks and serves as oatmeal. Mrs. Wallace verifies the wholti somm ss of this artic le of diet, and Mr. Washburn says that it i’s ns vood as an apple a day to keep the doctor away. The two recommend that in case the cereal supply in the farm homes runs low, the wife go to the wheat bin and help her self. New Prospect Sen ice.

New Phones May Make It Hard To Keep ’Em Farming Now York.—It may be a lot harder to keep ’em down on the farm, after a while. For it is now possible to say “Hollo. I’aree.” On. the heels of the Stirling events in transatlantic communi cation of Friday v hen many prom inent Americans and Englishmen exchanged the good word via the radiophone, it was announced to day that New York-Paris com munication now is a possibility. All that is needed is another radio hookup, say the experts. The -nine phone girls who plugged in to connect the Atlantic either way with the commonplace British phone system could make a differ ent connection—to a broadcasting station—from the vocal leap to Paris could be made by relay. The technical line of coirmunici tion then would be land lii.es to the American radio station, the ether route to the British stations, land lines to the British “central” and thence to American broadcasting station, a wireless wave trip to a French receiving station, and land wires to—well—to—Montmartre, or any other point dear in mem ory. Officially, this thing is possible, but it is not now considered prob able, yet awhile. There is a feeling in hard-head ed business circles in the telephone world that not enough people would pay the price to hear the champagne corks pop—for one thing. Besides which there are diplo matic and organization difficul ties. By the same token a radio relay league could cover all Europe— through a sort of changing cars sytem—with a loss of time so slight that a delicate machine would be necessary to measure it. The outstanding optimist of 192'3 was a Washington state farmer who planted fifty acres of mint. I ERSONALC Home folks you know y on tbe tro.

New Products Made By Mrs. Ware Here A very nifty name has been se lected for a new Shelby product which is manufactured by Mrs. R. E. Ware at the Hilliard Tea room. Since drug stores have become lunch counters, there is a great demand for all sorts of sandwiches and other eats. Mrs. Ware is man - ufacturing potato chips, put up in, glazed paper bags under the name of “Lady Dainty Pot-8-0 chips”. The chips are crisp and fresh, furn ished daily to a number of local and out-of-town stores. The name Mrs. Ware has selected is very “fetching” and has struck the fancy of consumers of “Pot-8-O” chips. COTTON MARKETS (By Jno. F.

The Princess put on a hi# road show at the theatre Tuesday night “The Gorilla” that brought a re presentative Shelby audience. The piece—a mystery drama after the order of “The Hat”—was excellent |Wlth thl's exception, that coupled j with the mystery thrill—which was j admirably worked up—were comedy | lines, which broke the fear spel’. ! The comedy was good, and the j drama was good, but in such a play the mixture o* the two ele ments was rather unfortunate. How ever, the audience got a big thrill j out of it, and such criticism as is offered is based on Comparison with the highest class productions. Vaudeville will be featured at th>' play house the remainder of the week, with these special pictures Tonight, “The oad to Glory” with May McAvoy and Ford Sterling; and I hursday, “Millionaires” with George Sidney and Vera Gordon, j This latter is a comedy and a good i one, played by two of the best eom i edians on the screen. b i iday of this week will be a big night at the Webb Theatre. Three features are scheduled. hirst comes “Variety’ the great UFA picture, with Kniil Jannings, great est of European actors, recently brought to America to work on this side of the water. Then there will be the superb gem “The Blue Boy” a little two-reeler. done in techni color, produced by Romance Pic tures. Also an interesting and up to the-minute News reel. This will prove an interesting program for theatre goers. Jan nings’ work in “Variety” will not only prove a great treat, but it will give cinema fans a new insight into cuper-scteen work.

Every vehicle of any descripti* n whatsoever, even if it is a young ster on roller skates, should be forced to carry lights when traveling Upon £he highways at night. As a i protection to the motorist or thp |oan in wagon or buggy, it is essential< that every vehicle dis play its whereabouts by adequate lighting. It is"a dangerous procedure, this getting out on the toads at night in a wagon or a buggv. It’s dan gerous enough even wnen there is a light on the vehicle, for it goes so slowly that a motorist is likely to run lit to it before_he realizes that It is' hardly "mbv.ng' in com parison with car. There are hundreds of instances where people have come to violent deaths because of collisions be tween automobiles and unlighted wagons and other such horse-drawn vehicles. Good Houses, Good Feed and Good Birds in Cleveland County Farm W riter Finds Observer Farm Page. “One of the things which civil ization has hitherto overlooked is the economic value of the hen .ns a food producing agency,’’ says E. S. Millsays, of Statesville, who is district demonstration agent for the piedmont counties o£ North Carolina. O. Max Gardner, in ad dressing a large body of Cleveland county farmers on January 4 made the statement that if A Hardin, county agent for that county, had done nothing more than the good he has accomplished in promot’ng poultry, this work alone would entitle him to the honor of having done more for agriculture in Cleveland than any other man. Since the breeding of high pro ducing eggs strains, the hen is no longer regarded as a kind of neces sary evil and pest around the farm, but is one of the south’s main crops. The chicken business is inexpensive to start, and every farmer should spare enough al tention at least to produce all the poultry aril eggs that his family will consume. Now is the time to start for success this year, and the year 1928. Good house, good teed. and good birds are prerequisites in poultry production. The houses may be constructed now. The feed may be grown during the coming summer. The best of birds may be bought as baby chicks within a few weeks, and grown into hens that will lay next fall and winter. The farmer who puts these things off until later will find himself face to face with the proposition of paying a big price for good pul lets next fell, and the chances are that he will decide to get along somehow through another season. Half of success in the poultry business is being on time. The Literary Digest might also take n straw vote on what to do "*» #*«*■'** i ! Warfield Corners Kissing Honors I __ Seaboard President, Who Visited Here Recently Gets Kissed By Bevies of Beauty West Palm Beach, Fla., Jan. 11 — The crown of champion kisser, | heretofore held by Lieutenant Rich ; mond P. Hobson. has been te ! stowed upon 3. Davies Warfield, president of the Seaboard Air Line by Governor Martin, of Florida. Warfield's oscillatory record was established on the pioneer trip of the Orange Blossom special open i in* the new West Const extension to Naples to through passenger traffic at every station along the new part of the line. The citizens turned out en masse to welcome and acclaim President Warfield and the 000 hankers, business and professional men from eighteen states and 00 cities, occupying live specials, who are his guests. Among the welcoming throngs along the route were hundreds of pretty girls, dressed in summery costumes and armed with bouquets and smiles. B' th the latter were freely bestowed upon the visiting Northerners, but the kisses, much to the envy of the other members ] of the party, were reserved for j Warfield. Warfield appeared to en j joy himself ami responded by “im planting an impassioned kiss” as ! Governor Martin expressed it, ; upon the fair brew of every lovely maiden who greeted him. It was a historic day in this , section of Florida, not only from j the kissing point of view, but from 1 an economic and railroad stand point. The opening of this new (territory by the railread, is ex j ported to result ir wonderful development of this part of the State, not only r3 a Winter resort, , but commercin’ly, industrially and ' agricultural!';. A Playful Camel Breaks Up Party Home.—A record-breaking reviv al of the “Camel Wall;" was re i tently initiated in one of the larg * est dance balls cf Turin by no other than the grotesque originator of the dance, an ungainly Arabian camel. Dancers at the fashionable Tu rmess dance ball were shocked nt I the abrupt entrance to the saloon j of the camel who vigorously nro ! ceeded to give the most original i exhibition of the camel walk ever given in any dance hall. The p;\ I trona were so shocked that they left the hall, some even leaving | coats and hats behind. She struck out down the street, leaving behind her a trail of wrecked fruit stands. overturned i coffee tables and widespread panic. Word spread that an enraged lien. : or t'ger, ns others thought, was ! tearing about through the 1reefs. Th-* confusion increased, and th« police and firemen were called \ out. Finally she arrived at the dance ■ hall entrance. Whether captivated | bv the i n' icing s.rains of a popu lar American jazz piece. or nt : traded by the bright light, she . chose this place as a refuge I against her tormentors. But once inside, disillusion became complete. Not a single cavalier came to her rescue. H**r performance in the dance ' hall was cut short by the interfer i < nee of the circus custodian, who | having raced after his’charge from i street to street, row mad” use of j a stout stick. Cana was finally re turned to the circus, disheartened i and cured of the desire for public 1 exhibitions. • | ___ Women Beat Men In Literary Work i Chicago.—Men have almost twice as much chance of succeeding - in a literary career as women, no ! cording to Glen F.. Winsbip, novel : ist, in an address here before a | convention of club women. The ! rat'o, however, is rapidly changing. “Study of 180 successful novel ists,” said Mr. Winshlp, “reveal; d | that 114 or 64 per cent, were men. while 66 of the writers, or .16 per cent, were women. These figures | include both American and British 1 authors. “Greater success of men in lit erature is partly due to the fact that they have been at the task centuries longer than women. The first successful woman * novelist did not appear until 1808. She was Jane Porter, who wrote “Thaddeus of Warsaw,” the best seller of its day. The first American woman to gain international prominence as a novelist was Catherine Sedgwick, who begnn writing about 1825. “Women have been too busy drudg'ne in the kitchen, caring for children and looking after their homes to assert themselves seriously in literature up to the present time, but it is logical to assume women novelists will soon he as great as that of men.” French Skyscraper New York.—Plans for the con struction of a thirty-two story building on Fifth Avenue to house the French Consulate and other official French officers, as well as representatives, etc. of French bus-! iness, will be undertaken by the , French government.
