Mr.. ]. A. BROWN
SUPERINTENDENT
Has Been Made the Head of
North Carolina in the Plan
of Cotton Acreage Re-
duCtion

ANNOUNCEMENT has been made that
Hon. j. \. Brown. who is recalled
here as former State Senator from
Columbus County, has been appointed
State Superintendent Of the North
Carolina division of the Southern Cot
ton Growers Association
The duties of the superintendent
are the work of perSuading the peo-
,Dle Of the State to reduce their acre
e in cotton and to diversity it. Tho
tock Hill plan, a reduction OF 25 per
cent, has been recommended TO North
Carolina, but the State department OF
Agriculture did not take it up Just
as offered. 1t fell into line heartily
but did not make the general order
Tor 20 per cent curtailment. 1t recon-
mends reduction everywhere but
among small farmers does not ask
such reduction. 1t does call upon the
larger ones TO cut theirs down 2o per
cent.
The news from Rock Hin is that
the States are promptly and enthu-
Siastically falling in line. Oklahoma
has joined and Arkansas has shown
more interest than any other State.
Louisiana remains unconquered. but
the men behind the Rock Hill plan
have every hope that it will be CAP
tured in few days. The Rock Hill
plan generally obtains and while it

| Of work. Mr.. Brown will prove
mighty force. He is farmer OF
means, has a large personal following
! and is one whom the farmers can
trust. In the Senate he was a man
Of great influence and popular in both
| bodies. He is one OF the most promi-
nent men in Columbus county and
proved as a lawmaker a splendid rep

/ The progress Of the movement is

WORTH THINKING OVER.

An auto in the farm, yard is no sign
that the owner is a spendthrift-on
the contrary it may Indicate that he
prefers to give himself and his family
harmless pleasure and has the money
to pay for it.
No farmer can be q really good cit
zen unless he takes enough interest
in politics to attend every primary
and every election.
Gold plated sin is always much
more attractive than the raw mate
rial.
A run down. weedy garden always
is the sign Of an OVerwOrked woman n
or q lazy man, or bOth.
Grating is an art which the truIt
grower does not practice alone.
Hardening 4 child by exposing il to
bad weather or giving it tasks beyond

which fattens the graveyard.

Get is that which separates man
