THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1933.
In a heart-to-heart talk to the peo
ple Monday night the President made
an loquent plea to the nation for
whole-hearted and unselfish coopera
tion with the administration in mak
ing the New Deal an immediate
reality. “While we are making this
great common effort there should be
no discord and dispute,” he said. Mil
lions who have looked toward the
White House with new hope since
March 4 have not been disappointed.
Already the pulse of the nation has
quickened with new activity, wheels
of industry long idle are turning
again, thousands of workers are
again employed, andever ywhere the
clouds of pessimism are breaking to
let the light of a new day shine
through. Every citizen has a duty
to perform. United in a common
purpose, let us stand solidly behind
our great leader and do our part to
bring about national recovery.
Calamity howlers are about as
popular now as a tom-cat on the back
fence at 2 A. M.
Pessimists are finding audiences
about as scarce as Bibles in a speak
easy.
Mr. C. A. Miles, Relief Director of
Alleghany County, states many com
plaints are coming into his office con
cerning relief cases from other coun
ties who are, at this time of the
Year, coming into this county. It is
difficult to keep track of relief cases
and ascertain that the best service
will be obtained, unless each county
jects. He asks that the people of the
exercises some control over it’s sub
county, who have empty houses and
who are liable to rent their houses
to parties from other counties, inves
tigate fully the conditions of the per
sons who want to move into this
county now.
Mr. Miles’ office has been able to
give extensive relief to all needy peo
ple of this county. This should not,
however, encourage the outside relief
subjects to come into the county. Mr.
Miles would like to consult jirith
landowners before any places are
rented or leased and will explain to
them the rules and regulations of
the relief department.
Those who have neglected putting
out any gardens or crops will not be!
allowed relief, neither those who
have been living in this county or
those who are now moving in.
He hopes that the taxpayers will
realize what a tremendous burden it
is to look after all those who need
help. Unless they cooperate fully, it
will be impossible to give the best
service to the really deserving.
Mr. Miles has been making efforts
to send those who have recently come
into the county back to their original
counties. Unless those dependents
upon the relief office go back to their
original counties, it will be necessary
for the landowners from whom they
have rented houses to furnish them
sufficient work and to support them.

FARM NEWS
BY W. B. COLLINS, County Agent.
A scrub or low-grade ram is an ex
pensive animal although he may be
bought at a low price. A purebread
ram at a relatively high price is a
much more economical ram to keep.
If we are to get the proper weight
and finish on our market lambs we
will have to use purebred rams.
There will be a purebred ram sale
held at Sparta on the first Monday
in August to give the farmers of Al
leghany County an opportunity to se
cure good purebred rams for their
flocks. There will be 14 purebred
yearling rams offered for sale on that
day.
Farmers who have good rams and
wish to exchange them for rams,
which are not related to their ewes,
are requested to bring them to Spar
ta on the first Monday in August so
that exchanges may be made.
All sheep should be given three
drenchings, a month apart, for stom
ach worms. These drenchings should
begin at least by the first of August.
To drench for stomach worms; dis
solve one ounce of Bluestone in three
quarts of water and give grown sheep
4 ounces of the solution. Give lambs
2 ounces of the solution. Keep Blue
stone solution in glass or earthen
ware vessels. In drenching scheep
keep all four feet of the sheep on
the ground and hold the head so that
the nose will be level with the eyes.
Drench slowly so as to avoid strang
ling.
In nearly every flock of sheep there
are a few lambs which have failed
to get sufficient milk or for other
reasons are thin in flesh. All these
thin lambs should be taken from the
ewes, drenched for stomach worms,
j turned in good grass and grained
twice a day until they are fat. There
is very little excuse for any farmer
in this county offering under weight,
thin lambs for Sale in September
when the last lambs are sold. The
cost of fattening a lamb in this way
is very small compared to the loss
sustained by selling under weight
thin lambs.
Mrs. Frank Campbell and her at
tractive daughters, Janet and Han
nah, returned home Saturday after
visiting Rev. and Mrs. J. L. Under
wood for a week.
Miss Mary Underwood is in High
Point for several days, the guest of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank and family.
Those enjoying a fishing and
camping trip on New River over the

Burchett, Mr. and Mrs. Johnny

STRANGE fact about tha
tire business is — ;/i«
PRICE of all tires is about
alike, You might as well
pick the best—in quality, in
safety, in mileage,
What’s the best in quality?
The public says Goodyear—
preferred by more people
than any THREE other
makes,
What’s the best in safetyT
Accurate tests on wet con
crete show Goodyears will
stop a car quicker than any
other tire. The next best t ire
skidded 10% more—other
tires skidded up to 77%
more under exactly the same
conditions.
What’s the best in mile
age? Bus fleet records show
Goodyear Tires give 97%
more mileage nan they
gave five years ago.
Now that all prices are
headed UP—it’s more im
portant than ever to gee toe
most for your money. Bet
j. ter look over your th e# and
buy new Goodyears now
while prices are still low.
