Pernong vine comes up every year and
usually comes after the season for
pruning has passed. All pruning of
the scuppernong should be done this
month and early December. Many of
the old scuppernong vines of the
county would be greatly improved
in bearing by a judicious pruning, re
moving all dead vine and part of the
new vine where the vines have become
massed. The scuppernong is one of
the finest fruits to be found in the
state and should be growing on every
farm in the country. In the next few
weeks is the time to make the trans
plants of scuppernong vines, and
hundreds of Rowan farms should plan
to get a start of scuppernong grape
vine this fall. Our Costal Plain Expert
ment station at Willard, N. c. has a
thousand o different types of the
scuppernong and also has done extens-
i've work in training and pruning the
scuppernong vine and makes the fol-
lowing recommendation; In starting
a new vine there should be, four
leaders developed and these placed on
a trellis in a quadrangle and thus de-
velope for five or six years without
pruning. At this period one of the
four main ars of the vine is removed
and replaced by new growth the fol-
year. The following year an
other vine is removed and at the end
of another five years the entire top
has been renewed and the harvest Of,
grapes continues year after year. Plant
scuppernong grape vines during the
next 80 days and other fruit trees
and vines from then on to February

trial Safety Conference held in Char
lotte on November 5 and 9Th. Brother
Fink reports that approximately 800
delegates representing all leading in
dustries of the state were present.
The meetings were held in the Hotel
Charlotte and the opening session was
presided over by T. A. Wilson former
President of the North Carolina
State Federation of Labor and now a
member of the North Carolina In
dustrial Commission. These meetings
are being held annually for the pur-
pose of stimulating interest in the
prevention of injuries in industry.
The reports of the delegates from the
various industries showed 4 decided
decrease in the number of personal
injuries due to this CO operative effort.
NO PART IN PARADE
Due to delayed delivery of the
invitation from the local post of the
American Legion to the Central Labor
Union to enter a float in the Armistice
Day Celebration, the Central Labor
Union has instructed its secrtary to
express its regrets for not being able
to enter a float that would be a credit
to our organization due to the lack
of time. However it was the expressed
intention to cooperate fully with any
other enterprise of this nature that
may develop in the future.
- ROBBING LABOR
During these times of depression in
the midst Of plenty, one hears a lot
about some employers wanting to cut
wages. 1t makes one wonder where are
those who have been admiring Abra-
ham Lincoln during the past few
decades? They seem to have forgotten
his great poem which runs as follows,
and is as true today as then:
All that serves labor serves a nation.
All that harms labor is treason.
No line can be drawn between these
two.
If any man tells you he loves his
country, yet hates labor, he is a liar.
If any man tells you he trusts his
country, yet fears labor, he is a fool.
There is no country without labor,
and to fleece the one is to rob the
other.

GLEANINGS
By w. G. YEAGER
County Agent

The weather has been
rather unusual in the extended drought
and many farmers have hesitated to
seed fall grains hoping for a seasonal
rain, but no rain in sight and the
season will soon be late for seeding
fall grains. All land that can be pre-
pared for seeding should be done so as
rapidly as possible. The wheat market
out look has improved very much in
past sixty days, giving encouragement
to increase the fall acreage to this crop.
Oats will be seeded most Of the winter
months, and with reasonable safety by
using the Norton variety. All Of the
low yielding cotton land should be
seeded to small grain this fall or winter
and then to some of the clovers or
grasses next spring. Many Rowan
farmers harvested s. to 60 bushels Of
oats this summer and are now harvest
ing from 10 to 20 bushels of Korean
lespedeza seed per acre. 1t does not
take much figuring to show a profit
of this combination over a low yield
ing cotton crop.
Some one has recently stated that
cotton is only AZ per cent of prewar
price, while meat animals are 79 per-
cent, dairy products IS percent and
poultry products 10 percent OF pre-
war prices. These columns will fire.
quently refer to the live stock farmer
as being enviable position and the
above figures strikingly bear this out.
The lowest price on feed grains in
several decades makes the livestock
opportunities all the more attractive
New Corn is changing hands in the
country under 40 cents per bu. and
good quality hay is abundant on every
side. Hogs and beef cattle are both
safe feeders on the present market
outlook. Take hogs for instance; a 8
lb. shoat will put on 100 lbs. of gair
in approximately 1875 days, consum-
ing 40 lbs. of corn, so lbs. wheat
shorts and SO lbs. fish meal or tank
age. If fed in in a self feeder, produc-
ing live pork under 5 IL cents PEI
lb. at present feed prices, including
cost of the pig. Barley or rye can b
substituted for on half or two third
of the corn if desired, in fact, feed.
ing to hogs is the most practical
market for rye when not used fo'
seed.
The rye should be ground or soaked
and preferably fed in slop mixture
Caution should be exercised in feedin,
rye to bred sows.

However unpopular it may be
with some, the labor movement will
never cease to function. In many
instances it stands alone advocating
humanitarian measures-laws which
bring no direct benefits to the men,
bership it neve falters. 1t has been
deceived and betrayed, both within
and without, but it goes on and on
preaching the doctrine of justice to
those who make the wheels of com
merce and industry revolve. The
voice of its enemies grows weaker as
the years pass, and in many localities
can scarcely be heard.

SCHAAF WINS SLOW. GO WITH DORVAL; JACK KELLY LOSES.

Boston, Nov 20 (UP)-Ernie schaaf, protege of Jack sharkey, successfully defended his New Eng land heavyweight title last night when he gained the decision over Napoleon Jack Dorvai in a. slow 10-round bout at Boston Garden.
 schaaf weighed 20s and Dorval 214.
 The bout was slow for the first eight rounds. In the ninth Dorval discarded his clinching tactics and exchanged punches with the ex- sailor. Schaaf landed punches al- most at will, however.
 The judges failed to agree on the award, but the referee cast his vote for Schaaf.

THREE RING TITLES POSSIBLY INVOLVED
 IN BOUT TONIGHT
CanzOnefi- Chocolate Meet for Title - Kaplan to
 Clash With Eddie Ran
BY |. s. CAMERON

United Press Sports E0ttOF)
 New York, Nov 20.--(UPl- Two gloved fists and 15 rounds of boxing stood to-day between Kid Chocolate and a worlds champion ship.
 The fists were those of Tony Canzoneri, Brooklyn italian, the bout will occur tonight at Madi- son Square Garden. It's the light weight title at stake. #
 Betting men have predicted a victory for Cansoneri. They have made the odds to l. In this pre- diction most boxing writers con- cur, for it is not believed that Chocolate, clever dark brown Cu- ban negro, boasts the wailop held in the squat Italians hands and shoulders.
 Crowns Galore.
 Actually two titles, and maybe three, will be involved. although only the lightweight is of real importance. Canzoneri also holds the junior weiterweight crown. Chocolate is junior lightweight champion, and if Canzoneri, as is quite possible, scales down to the 13O pound limit, that third title also will be at stake.
 Boxing styles of Canzoneri and his dark challenger are note en- tirely unlike. Each is speedy and each is thoroughly ring wise. It's possible that the kid has a slight edge in speed. It's certain that Tony boasts the harder wallop.
 All Set.
 Both boxers are in perfect con- dition. This alone is a minor vic- tory for the kid. He got himself jolly we'll out of shape after some repeated successes a year or so ago and his Harlem friends tol dstories of double-ended candle burning. Now Chocolate Is believed to be back at his former power.
 The Lord Lonsdale champion ship belt is at stake. This belt originally was won by the late Freddie welsh, British lightweight. It was presented this week at Madison Square Garden to be giv- en in custody to the winner who must twice successfully defend his title to gain permanent possession. The belt is of solid gold.
 If the junoior lightweight title Is at stake and if Canzoneri wins the bout, Tony will be the first boxer in history to have held four titles. ell once was fcatherweight champiOn
