A new idea In improving the poultry flocks of North Carolina has been started by the Cleveland county poultry association which win auction a number of pure bred cockerels of the three most popular breeds from the court house steps here Saturday afternoon at 3:30. R. W. Shoffner, county agent, •ays the association found itself with a few extra dollars In the treasury and the question W5s rais ed how best to use the money. Aft er discussion, the members decided to buy 15 Rhode Island Reds. 16 Barred Rocks, and 15 Whi^ Leg horn cockerels of the best blood ob tainable. If they do not bring at public auction what members spent on them, the association will stand1 the loss. This Is said to be the first public auction of purebred cockerels ever held In the state, and the poultry- j men of the county are said to be looking forward with eagerness to the outcome of the venture. This new plan Is following up the Idea of having only purebred reg istered sires of all kinds in the County. Last year seven purebred registered Jersey bulls were pur chased and placed with leading dairymen. These animals are al ready having an effect In building up the herds of the county and the poultry venture is a continuation ol this better farming idea, Shoffner •aid.

We Operate No Bank But We Hein You Save Money. Prohi Officers ! In Big Roundup For Court Here (CONTINUED FROM PAOE ONE l rests last week were for bootlegging and manufacturing. Stills Are Cold. Such has been the shock of the raids that the lack of smoke curl ing out of the coves of the South Mountains Indicate that many still furnaces are cold, and along the centers of distribution the rum run ners and pint peddlers a'e "lying low" until the drive is over. As it Is, however, all indications are that the term of Federal court here next week will be faced with one of the largest whiskey dockets ever. So far no raid has hit the im mediate Shelby area. In Rutherford. The following Rutherford dis patch tells of the raid there Wed nesday: “Federal prohibition officers, un der direction of J. Ed Canipe, of Charlotte, deputy prohibition ad ministrator, assisted by Sheriff J. Ed McFarland and some of his de puties, arrested eight men here Wednesday on charges of violating the prohibition laws. “Tlie men were given hearings Thursday before U. S. Commission er W. J. Mode, and all were bound over to the U. S. District court at Shelby under $500 bond each. They were ordered to appear In court Monday, September 28. “Six of the men are filling sta tion operators, the other two being [farmers. The filling station opera tors are: Rufe Nelon, Raielgft Lynch, Sam Moore, Floyd Settle myers, Walter Hennessee, and Gar land Pritchard. The farmers are James Nix and King Price," Lincolnton Raid. A Lincolnton dispatch depicts the roundup there as follows: "Federal prohibitions agents, led by Deputy Marshal F. B. Hamrick, swooped down on Lincoln liquor dealers Tuesday and arrested eight men before anyone knew what it was all about. All who were arrest ed gave bond except Shulta and two Bostic's, who are In Jail awaiting preliminary hearing before U. S. Commissioner D. H. Shields. Those who made bond for their appear ance at trial are Jim Bryant, Hoyle Chatham, John L. Abernethy Pete Mltchum and L. R. Ross. John Abraham was also caught. “For several days prior to the ar rests, an under cover agent was ac tive In tills section, securing evi dence by buying the ‘spirits' from those indulging in the contraband business. “Warrants were drawn here Mon day night and at daybreak Tues day morning Mr. Hamrick and as sistants from Charlotte and Ashe ville were combing the highways and hedges for those from whom the under-cover man had purchas ed evidence. "Other warrants were issued but have not been served as yet. “O. J. Bostic and F. O. Bostic, both of Mt. Holly, were arrested by Mr. Hamrick and others as they were coming to Lincolnton early Tuesday morning. The car was cap tured Just beyond Goodsonvllle with twenty-five gallons of whiskey. Not until the federal officers crowded the Bostic car into the ditch was the car stopped and then the Bos tic's took to their bunions. A swift chase was begun and both men were soon apprehended. Both are in the Lincoln Jail, being un able to raise a $2,000 bond.” North Carolina Ha* Plenty Insurance lCONTINUED PROM PAGE ONE.* if I show some of the pride X feel in our own North Carolina com panies, but the thing that gives me greatest pleasure is to see how our own North Carolina companies are getting stronger with their own home folks, year by year.

Raleigh, Sept. 17.—“Cotton prices below the cost of production are turning fanners more and more to cooperative marketing as the solu tion,” U. Benton Blalock, vice president and general manager of the North Carolina Cotton Growets Cooperative association, remarked this week as he looked over a num ber of new membership contracts, among which was one from a 300 bale grower. ' The state cooperative is advanc ing Its members within one cent per pound of the market price and. in addition, is allowing a substan tial grade and staple premium on cotton above middling 7-8. Mr. Blalock pointed out that In many instances the cooperative ad vance exceeds the average open market price. "Suppose,” he reasoned, “cotton is selling for $6.25 on the open mar •r Cotton C Cleveland ket. The cooperative member, in that case, will receive an advance of $5.25 and, in addition, will be given a premium on grades and staples above middling 7-8. If, for example, his cotton is strict mid dling 1 1-16, his grade premium would be 25 points and his staple premium 85 points—a total of $1.10, which would brin* his advance t.:n points above the average market price. And he has a chance to re ceive still more when the cotton is sold.” Receiving Agents. Although the season is not yet in full swing, the cooperative receiv ing agents are already busy receiv ing cotton, Mr. Blalock said. The cooperative cotton season was open ed Monday, September 7. Thirty-three receiving agents have been appointed to handle cotton in Cleveland county. They are: Carme Elam, Jr., Boggs and Peeler; C. J. Hamrick and Sons, Boiling Springs; R. G.
