Speaking of Bosses

The Boss who is installed in our Eity Hall reminds me of Andrew Jackson, an old time American hero. whose .obstinacy brought out a cop per metal for circula ton as a penny. The face side was stamped with a profile bust of Jackson with the legend T take the responsibility. ' The reverse side was stamped with a donkey leaning backward with all it's might while several men were pulling on the halter in an effort to move the beast, with the legend "Firmness. " In my boyhood days it was no un- common thing to see one of these Jackson pennies.

FARM DEMONSTRATION
(continued from Front Pase)

formation acquired by tax listers
under the law requiring agricultural
statistics in tax returns. There can
be no real objection raised to this
important act. 1t safeguards the
agricultural interests and makes
farmers more prosperous; hence
benefits every other interest, since
every interest depends upon such
prosperity as is too well known just
at this time.
When the farm boy of the future
does business on business princi.
pleS, with business information, as
will be possible under the operation
of this act, he will remain satisfied
ON the soil and will be able to more
nearly cause the earth to bring forth
a bountiful yield of the things that
will rebound to his and his coun-
try's welfare"
MIR. Parker is the right man in
the right place. He is thoroughly
trained in agricultural work and has
had some experience that proves his
ability to put things across" He
spent three years in Porto Rico in
u. S. Government service, and it is
through his indomitable will power,
good judgment and persistence that
Porto Rico now grows gardens and
other farm crops with improved inn
plements instead of crooked sticks
tied to OK horns as of yore. We are
fortunate, indeed, to have such a.
man at the head of so important a
work in North Carolina.
The county agents work will be
greatly strengthened by full and
complete statistics furnished through
Mr.. Parker's work. 1t is hoped that
all farmers will see that they can
not afford to be careless in giving
such statistics as are required by this
act =

be passed to apply to the counties
