Do First CulIing of
Hens This Month

During July and August poultry
raisers should do their first culling
OF hens that have been fed for more
than a year-marketing those that
show they have been the poorest
layers and therefore have not paid
for their feed, according to Kate M.
Wells, poultry specialist, Division of
Extension.
The hens that moult during July
and August are sure to be slackers.
The chances are they will not lay
again until next spring. So now is
the time to sell them off and give
the young chicks the extra feed
thus saved. The flock should be
culled again at later date, so do
not try to Gull too closely at this
time, says Mrs, Wells. Watch the
development of the cockerels and
pullets. Gull =" out those that. are
slow growing and feathering, that
are understood, that have crooked
beaks, backs, legs, or tails. The
winter flock should consist of only
the best grown pullets of the year
and for that reason one should be-
gin culling early.

TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC

In the issue Of the Enterprise of
some days ago, the mention of the
Estes Garage Co., was made in con-
Hectlon with the John Bell case.
which caused some little comment
and some have asked why our name
was used to designate the exact
place that Bell lives. l am sure of
one thing-our place has no connec-
ton with anything that does not
have for its purpose and aim the
betterment of the town and the NOR
al of it's citizens, and if the name of
Estes Garage Co. was used, it was
absolutely without our knowledge
or consent, and the editor of the
paper will be glad to tell the pub
lie why our name was used. win
add further that if our department.
before and after becoming citizens
OF Dresden is not above suspicion.
we challenge the proof, as we have
always stood four-sqqare for the en-
torcement of the law and for the
prosecution and punishment of those
who violate the same.-B. B.
Waterfield and R. L. Estes.

MERIT IN COMPLAINT

Complaint is made that the cut.
out ordinance in Dresden seems to
apply only to citizens of Dresden
that citizens of other towns and COM
munities drive in here without re-
gard to this law and that it ought to
apply to all. =.
We think there is merit in the
complaint. The open cut-out from a
distance makes just as much noise
and disturbs just as much as those
here in Dresden. 1t is not the pur-
pose Of the officials of Dresden to
impose fine on any one, but there
has been a perfect deluge of COM
plants of this wholly useless noise
and the officials can do nothing less
than abate the nuisance, and the En-
terprise believes the. law ought to APP
ply to an, just as in other towns.

Kennedy Says Tobacco
Prospects are Gloomy

The movement of loose tobacco
has been very light again during the
past week for the same reasons that
we gave week ago, ON account of
dry, hot weather and farmers being
busy with other crops.
The little tobacco moving is being
delivered on contracts that were
made in the country to dealers that
are still operating. There has also
been an occasional load sold on the
streets or loose floors. This was
generally common, non-descript
stuff, which sold low. No medium
or good leaf has made it's appear
ance, but would sell at good prices,
as there are still demands for the
better styles, and no doubt when we
have a general rain and seasons suit
able for handling tobacco, we will
see considerable movement as there
is still something like 7 million
pounds in the hands of farmers, the
greater part Of which is low grade
stock.
The Farmers Protective Associa-
ton report sales of about rs hogs
heads of leaf, the greater part of
which was common to medium, sell
ing at 10 to 27 cents. They report
good deal of inquiry for the bet
ter grades, also some inquiry for
low grades.
The weather conditions continue
about the same as last week, ex-
tremely hot and dry. There is a good
deal Of the late planting dying,
which is reducing this years crop
further. Another thing, it is not
growing as we would like to see, but
where it has been properly cultivated,
it is holding its own very well, but
the crop is needing rain very badly.
Some of the earlier planting will
soon be topped, but the greater part
Of the crop is still very small and we
can't intelligently forecast the final
out come, but the prospects for this
years crop are very gloomy, both
from the acreage standpoint, irregu-
lar growth and unfavorable wealth
er on the late paintings.

TIME FOR ACTION

The coming date for the Dresden
High School is drawing nearer day
by day and yet, nothing tangible
has been done toward providing the
extra room that must be provided
for the approaching term. It will be
| impossible to take care of the pupils
that expect to attend this school I'M
less provision is made for extra
room.
It is absolutely out of the ques-
ton at this late day to even think
of building or adding to the pres
ent structure, which no one wants
to do, and the only thing left to be
done is rent some room somewhere.
But where? is the question.
There was an impression in the
minds of some that by the opening
of next years term a suitable build
ing might be erected, but this hope
has gone aglimmering. Bonds for
school building cannot be issued I'M
til there is another session of the
legislature to pass an enabling act.
The legislature does not convene
until one year from next January.
Thus, it will be seen two terms of
school must be taught in the present
building, unless there should happen
to be an arrangement made for get
ting the money on the prospect Of a
bond issue after the passage Of an
enabling act. This could only be
done by the the citizens of the town
and community making a note, bor-
rowing the money, erecting build
ing with it and then later issu-
ing bonds and liquidating the
debt. But this kind Of an arrange
ment is hardly probable, though we
honestly believe it practical, for if |
one hundred or two hundred citi-
zens were wiling, for the sake Of
the boys and girls Of this communi-
ty, to sign a note for, say $4,000,
and then when an enabling act could
be got through the legislature, issue
bonds to that amount and pay off
the loan and release the securities,
we believe the money could be found,
But even this would not relieve
the situation for the coming term,
and it is problem that concerns
every citizens of this town and
special school district. Some pro-
vision must be made for at least the
primary grade, taught by Miss
Hancock, and if large room or

Wind and Lightning
Damage Near Sidonia

Several horses and mules were
killed and two persons were shocked
by lightning near Sidonia Friday, and
very severe wind and hail storm
did much damage to crops and prop
erty. The tobacco barn Of Doc
Crowder was blown down and the
top of corn crib belonging to Lois
Taylor was blown off. The stock
barn Of Charlie Martin was also I'M
rooted.
The lightning killed a mule be-
longing to Ike Exum and several
cows. The homes Of Marion and
Henry Kennedy were also struck by
doing much damage. Maude
Kennedy and Rosa Clark were very
severely shocked by the lightning.

THE HEART OF THE
COUNTY WEEKLY

There is something wrong with g
system of existence that brings tears
to the eyes of an old man and causes
his shoulders to be shaken by sobs
When one has passed through the
years of trial and sorrow, raised a
family and toiled all along the way
he should know few years of peace
and love and tender care before he
lays down the burden. This is in
spired by an incident that touched
us deeply few days ago. An old
and respected father stopped US on
the street and told of distressing
incident that had happened to his
family. II want to ask you to keep
it out of the paper" he said, and
then the tears came and the pent-up
anguish burst into sobs. 1t always
hurts to see child, cry. We stopped
on the way to the office this morn
ing to wipe the tears from the dirty
face of a little fellow who said,
: "A big boy hit me in the jaws" but
to see man past eighty with tears
rolling down his withered cheeks,
simply is too much. Indeed we'll
keep it out of the paper, old friend,
along with the many imprinted col
umns of sadness and sorrow and sin
that we have kept out of the paper
for 10, these many years. We some
times think we are pretty poor sort
of editor, after all. When we get
a good story, from the city report
er's point of view, we always see
the grayhaired mother or the proud
sister who will be hurt by the publ
cation of the sordid details and we
kill it. Recently, in a neighboring
town, a poor little sick girl sudden
" wandered away from home and
the sensational city paper played it
up with scare head across the front
page and even insinuated that the
young lady had been enticed away.
While the frantic mother was anx-
iously awaiting any information
that would lead to the return Of her
child the young lady came back and
hasty message to the city newspa-
per told of the return of the sick
daughter. ooh, hell!" answered the
voice over the phone, 1--WE had it
all played up for the front page"
No thought of the bleeding hearts or
tormenting fears of anguished par
ents ever weighs with these ghouls
of the pencil who pry into sacred
tragedies and haul family skeletons
out to be stared at by an unsympa
thetic public. Anything for SEN
sation. Anything to sell the papers.
There is no heart or soul in the city
newspaper, but thank God the little

In connection with the above the
Enterprise desires to state that no
suspicion has ever attached to the
Estes Garage Co, in connection with
the Bell case or any other thing of
wrong doing. The article in the
Enterprise referred to stated the To-
cation of Bells home as 1.-TWO doors
west of Estes garage" How any
intelligent person could construe
that simple statement to mean that
Estes garage had any connection
with the Bell case is beyond our
comprehension.
