EARLY SPUDS BRING A
QUARTER OF A MILLION
Spite of Late Crops, Farmers Made Go of
Their Early Sweets, By Grading Properly
and Marketing Carefully

- quarter OF lnllllol uol-
lars in cold cash, is what the
farmers of lower Currituck
County and parts of Camden
are digging from their fields
of early sweet potatoes this
year, according to conserva-
tive estimates of local potato
dealers and growers from the
counties. The production has
already been more than $4,000
barrels, and a fourth of the crop
is yet in the fields, they say.
Curritaqk and Camden farmers
have made good on their potatoes
this year because the growers are
learning the value of grading them.
Potatoes that might have sold for
seven or eight dollars a barrel ordi-
narily. brought ten dollars, and in a
few instances SO barrel at the first
of the season.
The good sales from uniform grades
have been further augmented by
packing and shipping potatoes under
white covers. This plan has bceo
tried by Brock & Scott, who have
shipped all their potatoes uade- their
own brand.
The most remarkable thing about
the shipments this year is that prices
have remained fairly good until tie
end of the season. 'This is some
thing unusual" remarks $. 6. Scott.
leading potato broker of this rity.
"NOt even in war times did the prices
stay up so WELL" The local markets
paid not lower than S4.25 a barrel
until Tuesday of this week.
More than POO carloads, or over
40 600 barrels Of these potatoes have
heel shipped thru and handled in
Elijah, tn City. At least 10,0OD bar.
rcls it is cstimetci have goEe by o'hcr
routes, mainly by water to Norfolk.
But Elizabeth City is the center of
the sweet potato industry in north.
eastern North Carolina and its facili-
ties are ample to take care of all
that can be grown in this section.
The $1,000 barrels that have been
shipped up to date, it is estimated,
have brought in more than $227 1000.
With a fourth Of the crop yet in the
fields or in transit, another SJO,00o
is due the growers, OF ut least enough
of this will come to bring the total Ia
more than Il quarter Of a million dol
lars.
4 quarter of million dollars dis
tributcd thru this section is doing
much to relieve the financial string
elicy caused by the sc.backs in earlier
crops. If Cur.ituck and Camden had
planted near us hcacily as last year,
they would have made double the crop
harvested this summer. But farmers
in these counties wouldn't risk losing
on carly crops as they have done for
two or three years preceding. They
put most of their land in cotton, and
they have a bumper cotton crop. En-
perts say there is little danger Of the
wecyil. because it is too late for him
TO do any damage now. And il no un-
usually bad weather arises, there will
be a cleanup on cotton. With cotton
running right along now at % and a
quarter cents a. pound, it looks as if
somebody will make some money, il
the price holds up.

GIVES RAILROAD
Men INCREASE
Advance of Two Cents an Hour
Awarded to Freight Handlers
and Lab0rerS.
ENDS A LONG CONTROVERSY
Decision of the United States Railroad
Labor Board Is the Last of
Batch of Cases Before
That Body.

Wage increases of two cents an hour
were awarded to $4,000 railway
freight handlers and laborers and the
eight-hOur day was restored to all of
the $4,000 members of the Brother
hood of Railway and Steamship
Clerks, Freight Handlers, Express and
Station Employees by the United
States railroad labor board.
The decision disposed of the last of
batch Of wage cases thar had been
pending for months, and follows one
of several weeks ago, in which the
board restored the eight-hour day to
$4,000 railway signalmen.
Both had previously been working
under a rule giving them the regular
rate up to and including the ninth hour
and time and one-half pay for over
time thereafter. They now get time
and one-half for overtime after the
eighth hour.
Although threatening to do so at
one time, neither the clerks organiza-
ton nor the signalmen Joined in the
strike Of railway shopmen last sum-
mer. Instead they followed the lead
of the maintenance-of-way men and re-
submitted their grievances.
The increase to freight handlers and
laborerS amounts to half of the pay
slash to which labor board order
subjected them last July. The board
denied the petition Of other groups
of this brotherhood for return to the
peak wage scale of postwar days. In
this connection the decision read:
''The board feels that only under
the most exceptional circumstances
would it be necessary or advisable to
revise the wage rates of a class Of
employees before the lapse of one year
since such revision had occurred
July u.
"In the case Of common labor, rep
resented by the Brotherhood Of Main
tenance of Way Employees, the board
granted an increase of two cents per
hour, when much less than year had
transpired subsequent to the. preced
ing wage decision, but has not deemed
1t just and reasonable to award any
increase to such classes of skilled en-
ployees as have applied therefor dur
Ing the same period"

GENERAL LABOR NEWS

James Tansey, president of the Fall
River (Mass.) textile council, an
nounced that the council had voted to
recommend to the six unions affiliated
with it that they petition the Fall
River Cotton Manufacturers associa-
tion for an advance in wages.
New wage contracts for workers in
many building trades are in effect in
Washington, and negotiations for in
creased scales are pending in other
trades, with the result that the basic
wages are back to the 1921 peak fig
ureS, and in some cases higher, ac-
cording to Col. E. j. Mcmahon, secre-
tary of the Master Builders associa-
ton. Builders figure that the wages
to be paid this year as result Of the
increases will be approximately 81, 400
600 more in the aggregate than paid
past year
Costs of $7,2781O were assessed
against the Coronado Coal company,
at Fort Smith, Ark, by Federal Judge
Frank A. Youmans, who ruled that
the company must reimburse the
United Mine Workers of America, de-
PENDANTS in the prosecution in a writ
of error from a 100000 judgment
handed down November %, 1917. The
original suit was filed in 1914 by the
Coronado company after alleged dep
relations in the Hartford (Ark) coal
fields during miners strike.
