The yield from our Mountain grown seed was 231 1-2 bushels per acre, Maine grown seed 230 bushels per acre, and Nebraska grown Seed 238 bushels per acre. Our seed compared favorably with all the Northern grown seed, and the farmers down there were of the opinion that our seed were just as good, if not better, than the Northern seed. In the potato growing sections of the eastern part of this state, the farmers have to buy their seed each year, because their home grown seed mature about two weeks later than potatoes grown in a high cool clim ate. And the earlier they can market their potatoes the better the price they receive. So the farmers in Eas tern North Carolina each year buy from 750,000 to a million bushels of Irish Cobbler potatoes for planting their crop. This gives our farmer Un limited possibilities in growing cer tified seed Irish Cobbler potatoes to supply the Eastern farmers with seed. On the farm of Mr. Albritten, where the potato meeting was held, there are 400 acres of level land with 25 miles of tile drain under it. On this one farm they plant on an av erage of 1200 bushels of potatoes each year. The land there is very fer tile and two crops are grown on the land each year. They believe in feed ing their crops and they use a ton of fertilizer per acre for their pota toes. The people down there were excep tionally nice to us “Mountain Boom ers” and their hospitality was of the finest Southern type. The following men are growing certified seed Irish potatoes in this county this year; Coy McCan, R. F. Crouse, R. E. Hawthorne, and Vann Miller. Mr. H. R. Nisworiger inspect ed these fields for certification last week. He found no varietal mixtures and very littel disease in these fields. R. E. Hawthorne now has the brag field of potatoes. He has had more rain than some of the other growers and his 4 acre field of potatoes on New River certainly would be an eye opener to the most of the far mers of this county. GOOD OLD DAYS (Louise Grave in The Chapel Hill Weekly.) If there are two or three flies in the room the room I grumble; but in the midst of my grumbling, now and then, I am amused by. the thought of how pampered I have become. It is not many years around 25, I should say—since flies swarmed in all the houses in Chapel Hill. Win dow screens were practically un known. People took the flies for granted as a curse which God had i permitted the devil to inflict upon mankind. A familiar sight in almost every household was a machine that con sisted of a shaft upon which revolv ed in a horizontal plane, a pair of black cloth wings. Each wing was of about the size of a tennis rac quet. The machine was placed upon the dining table, and you wound it up with a key, as you would a clock, to keep the wings in motion. The idea was that they shooed the flies away. As a matter of fact, they did very little if any good. The flies would biizz about the table, then sit upon the wings and ride, and then buzz about again. NOTICE NORTH CAROLINA, ALLEGHANY COUNTY, In the Superior Court Before The Clerk B. F.
