LOCAL RED CROSS
PROPOSITION TO HOLD A GEN
ERAL AUCTION IN FEB
RUARY.

The executive committee of the
Lake county Red Cross held a meet
ing last night, and decided to put on
a general auction for the benefit of
the orgaiZation. The plan as now
proposed is for farmers or producers
to donate some form Of produce,
corn, potatoes, apples, poultry-any-
thing in the way of produce that they
are willing TO give, and sell it at pub
lie auction, the proceeds to go to the
Red Cross funds. Beyond the plan
of having something of this kind
there is nothing definite done except
that they hope to be able to hold 1T
some time in February.
Upon invitation of III. G. Jewett,
member of the state board of the Red
Cross, II. III. Holdridge will go to
Aberdeen on January is, to attend
a meeting of the officers of the Min
neapolis branch of the organization
and the officers of this state in ter
ritory contiguous to Aberdeen. In
terchange of ideas and methods of
conducting the work will be a feature
of the meeting. There will be an
address on Chapters in General"
conference of particular lines OF
work, and DR.. F. A. Perry will talk
on Red Cross and Y. M. c. A.. 9th
er officers would like to attend from
here, but find themselves unable to
I do so at this time.
The amount of work done by the
local chapter of Red Cross may be
gagged in some measure by the cost
of the one item Of yarn used by the
members here. At a recent meeting
of the financial committee they au-
dited bills for $500 worth of the
one item of yarn alone.

SELL COTTON SEED
in BULK, SAYS PAGE

Raleigh, N. c., Sept. l2.-At a
conference with State Food Admin
istrator Henry A. Page during a
called meeting yesterday, the Nortn
Carolina Cotton Seed Crushers' AS
sociation entered into an agreement
with Mr.. Page to pay farmers the
carlot rate for cottonsed when lots
of ten tons or more were delivered
to them by contract within a period
of five days. They also agreed that
they would encourage the pooling OF
cottonseed by farmers inorder that
the farmers might have the beneflt
Of the carlot rate, which is SO per
ton higher than thewagon rate.
Mr.. Page authorized and instruct
ed the mills to pay the farmers who
desired to haul their seed to the mill
instead of to their nearest railroad
station, the amount of freight Whlch
they would be compelled to pay had
the seed been shipped by frelgh.
However, farmers living closer to an
oil mill than to freight station
would not be entitled to any remun-
Grafton for hauling seed.
While not altogether satisfied
with every feature of the recent sta
bilization program, it was the con,
census of opinion of the one nun
dred or So crushers present. that al
interests considered no more eqult
able basis of stabilization could have
been arrived at and they plelgeo
their hearty cooperation with th'
Food Administrator in the enforce
ment of the stabilization program
recently outlined.
For his part Administrator Pag
could but announce to the crusher
that theprices and margins stated Il
the new program are absolute ant
will be rigidly enforced. One effec
of the stabilization program Will D
the elimination to a very large eA
tent of long hauls and to the pun
chase of cotton seed in distant tel
ritory by any mills. Prices bein
the same everywhere in thesam
zone, 1t will be to the advantage
all mills to confine their purchase
to their local communities.

commissioners have no desire to In
terfere unnecessarily with the opera
tion of the fraternal societies, ana
are not doing so beyond their plain
duty as seen by them, as we'll as by
the best informed frateral leaders
but that they dare do their duty re-
gardless of epithets and insinuatlons
of those officials who fear the truth
and turning on the list or their al,
lies.
At this time, Commissioner Young
SAID, thirty eight states and the DO,
minion of Canada have fraternal
laws four having simply the Mobile
bill, while thirty eight have added
the New York Conference Bill. St
that the states are advancing pretty

The Commissioner pointed ou
that for several years valuations
have been required but were not al

but that the time is approaching
when the provisions become stricte
and call for a measuring up to
standard. Many of the societies, n
said, have taken advantage of tn
time allowed them in which to i'm
prove their condition and reach
proper standard with adequate rate
have readjusted their rates and s
are ready, while others are not be
cause they have not re-adjusted to

find themselves in 1920 as the foo

utterly unprepared that they WI
discontinue while their leaders WI
"cuss out" the law and supervise
officials in an endeavor to place
them their failure to deal fair
with their members in bushes

Sour Stomach.

This is a mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating too
rapidly or two much, or of food not
suited to your digestive organs. If
YOU will eat slowly, masticate your
food thoroughly, eat but little meat
and none at all for supper, you will
more than likely avoid the sour stom-
ach without taking any medicine
whatever. When you have sour
stomach take one Of Chamberlain's
Tablets to aid digestion.
