No Neutrality Here.
1t was the first gathering in many
weeks where the chief topic of CONVEX
sation was not the European war. The
allies and their opponents took a back
seat while the Athletics and the Braves
occupied the stage. There was one
characteristic which made the crowd
unusual There was no neutrality on
the part of. any of the fans. They
were either for or against one of the
teams.
The crowd was facetitious, one
jokester remarking: Hope the national
commission will not censor this war
news as it does the dispatches from the
European war"
During the early stages of the curb
stone game speculation ran high as to
whether Frank Baker would break UP
the game with his heavy hitting.
That the Braves had big following
was evident throughout the game It
was first demonstrated when a double
play by the Braves infield prevented
score by the Athletics in the first
inning. When the Braves scored they
howled with delight.

COMMISSIONERS AND 10
r JUDGES TO BE CHOSEN

Raleigh, March.-So far as nomina-
tions are concerned, the state demo-
cratic convention that meets here in
June will have to select just one can
didate for corporation commissioner
and confirm the nominations of ten
Superior court judges made in the
number of twenty judicial districts.
The corporation commissionership is
that now filled by Chairman E. L.
Travis, and it is generally conceded
that Mr.. Travis will have no opposi-
ton and that his nomination will be
by reclamation. 1t is expected that
practically all the judges in the dis
tricts that are to nominate will stanl
for denomination, and no contests
have yet developed. The judicial dis
tricts involved and the judges in each
are as follows: First district, Judge
W M. Bond; fifth, Judge H. w. Whed-
bee; sixth, Judge %. H. Allen; ninth,
Judge C. c. Lyon; tenth, Judge w. A.
Devin; thirteenth, Judge w. ]. Adams;
fourteenth, Judge w. F. Harding, six
teenth, Judge j. L. Webb, eighteenth,
Judge M. H.. Justice; twentieth, Judge
G. s. Ferguson.
1t develops that here will be no
nominations for supreme court Judge
four years yet.

Poor Seeds at High Prices.
Sometime ago we notified the farm
ers of the State that certain seed
fakirs were abroad selling various
kinds of seeds for exorbitant prices.
Notwithstanding some of these
have been arrested they are again at
their old tricks selling seed potatoes
for $500 per bushel that cannot be
worth more than good seed potatoes
from the ordinary seed houses. They
sre also selling corn for $500 per
bushel that is not likely to be better
tEan what you have in your crib. We
warn you again to beware of these
seed pedlars and take the matter up
with the North Carolina seed labora-
tory before you are taken in by them.
The extravagant claims these fell
lows are making for their seed pota
toes that are bug proof cannot be
other than false claims to deceive You
into buying an ordinary article at a
very high price. Therefore, let them
severely alone and buy seed from rep-

 P. G. Holden. director of the agricultural extension depart ment of the International Har- vester Company, who is known fas The Corn Wizard of Iowa, 7 has been in dozens of communi- ties and so have the. 15 practical farming men of his staff. Holden has shown the people that nearly every county has paid a monthly tribute of thousands of dollars to Iowa and Illinois for farm products.
