WAS HE FROM PROFESSIONALLY. THE UNDERTAKE. A DEVELOPER

Baskerville Citizen
81 have heard some reasons assign
ed for not joining the board of trade
in the last two days." said one Of the
workers yesterday, "but today 1 ran up
against something entirely new in ex-
cuses. Thc~e is . 'uan on Patton ave
nue-a business nan-who does not
belong to the board OF trade, and his
reason o not joining il probably the
most unipne of any ever advanced un-
der similar conditions. He says that
the reason that he does not join the
board of trade is that the organization
is boosting Asheville to such an extent
that it is growing too fast for the
welfare of the city, and is bound to be
hurt by too much boosting. For that
reason he does not wish to add furth-
er funds to the resources of the board
and declines to join. That sounds I'M
reasonable, I know, but so does the
fact that there is a business man on
Patton avenue who is not a member OF
the board of trade"

BOSTON HOLDS CHAMPIONSHIP
OF BASEBALL OF THE NATION.

Boston, Mass, Oct. 13.-The Boston
National league club today completed
the most sensational record in mod
ern baseball history by defeating the
Philadelphia Americans in the fourth
and final game Of the worlds series at
Fenway Park, 8 to 1.
Beginning with their rush from last
place in the senior league in the mid
die of July, the Braves have broken
traditions and records with speed and
abandon. They emerged. late today
champions of the world, leaving a trail
of startling surprises and upsets in
their wake.
Last and far from the least of their
accomplishments was the overthrow
in four consecutive games of the
world famous baseball machine of
Connie Mack, with it's hundred thou
and dollar infeld, home run heroes
and corps of skilfully blended veteran
and youthful pitching stars. Tonight
the new champions, gathered under
management of George Stallings.
are celebrating their ascent to the
championship, while the wreck of the
Athletics baseball juggernaut is bound
for home, stunned and supplied.

sMiTH-LEYER ACT, EDUCATIONAL
No Government Funds Provided for
Grants to Individuals.

Washington D. C.-Many- letters are
being received by the u. s. Department
of Agriculture which indicate that
farm women in various sections of the
country have come to believe that the
government is about to assist them
with grants of money to individuals.
This unfortunate mistake which, it is
feared, will be the cause of considera-
BILE disappointment; appears to have
arisen through a misunderstanding of
the Smith-Lever act recently passed
by congress. Under this act funds
contributed both by the Federal and
State governments are made available
for practical demonstration work in
agricultural and home economics. Ex-
perts from the agricultural colleges
and county agents, both men and Wo-
men, are to show farmers and farm
women the value of modern methods in
agriculture and housekeeping, and
demonstrate the use of labor-savine
devices. The purposes of the act are
thus entirely educational; and there
are no provisions whatever for direct
financial assistance.
This demonstration work which the
Smith-Lever act is designed to pro-
mote has already met with considera-
BILE success in the State where it has
been started, but the additional funds
now available will greatly increase it's
efficiency. To avail themselves to thu
full of it's possibilities the department
officials recommend that farm ome
form local clubs and then communicate
with the county agent or the State ag-
ricultural college.1 In this way it will
often be possible to secure a visit from
the county agent or from the home
economics expert.

Y. C, FARMERS MOVE FREQUENTLY

In compiling data for the last Fed
eral Census the numerators asked
every farmer in North Carolina this
question: How long have You lived
on the farm you now occupy?" This
question was answered by 225 G57
of the 53,725 farm operators in this
State. More than $1,000 stated h a
they had occupied their farms only one
year or less; 54,746 from 2 to 4 years;
36,17O from 5 to 9 years and 73,46S 10
years and over The most restless
class of people in this State is. the ten
ent who operates his farm on the shar"
basis. There are 92,24S of these farm
ers in this State; 1890 of them made
answer to the query and their replies
indicated that 39,041, of about 20 per
CEN of them moved every year.DFar-

the term of occupancy of farms in the
United States, said:

chief causes for the decline of rural
prosperity, or is a hindrance to great
er progress. Frequency of removal Of
farmers results in general shiftless-
ness: the roads and bridges are gen.
orally in a poor condition because the
farmers, moving at frequent periods,
are not particularly interested in their
upkeep. Farm buildings of such farms
are not usually kept in good repair,
as the farmer who is about to move
will leave the repairs for the next ten
ant to make. The same reasons viii
apply for lack of interest by the "un-
farmer in the schools, churches
and general welfare of the community.
They move frequently; they do not re-
main on a farm long enough to get
the best results from it, consequently
they are usually in a poor financial
condition"
