Their second touchdown came
after Martins punt was blocked
and ReisS recovered the ball on

plunges at the line netted 3
yards; Johnson got 6 = yards
on pass from Sippley. and Ber-
ger made it a first down by a
line buck to the 12-yard line.
Sippley went through the line
for 6 yards. Sippley was held
| for no gain on the next trial.
Johnson picked up 3 yards

Groom, by a sensational 76-
yard run around Nirginia's left
end, made Carolina $ only touch
down This came in the third
quarter after r Woollen had
/ caught Johnson's punt on the
Carolina 10-yard line and Ee-
turned it ii yards. 1t was the
first time Groom had carried the;
ball in the game. Gaining the
open behind splendid interfer-
ience, and shaking off and dodg-
ing one Virginia tackler after
another, he raced across the line.
This put new hope into the
Carolina rooters. If Groom
could run 76 yards on his first
trial, why not again? There was
about 25 minutes still to play,
and the crowd began to think
that the Tar Heels might do
what they had done last year
come from behind and win. But
neither Groom, nor any other
man on the Carolina team, car
ried the ball near the Virginia
goal line a second time.

Chapel Hill Chaf

E. C. Branson head of the
University's department of rur-
al social economics, has discov-
cred a new pipe-tobacco mix
ture of rare quality. Mixing to-
bacco is a field of research. in
addition to his other fields, in
which he has attained eminence.
His study or dining room serves
as his laboratory. He places on
a table a big sheet of paper and,
around the edges of it, cans of
various brands of tobacco,
perique, and other ingredients.
He pours mounds on the paper
and proceeds to mix them, -een-
trolling the proportions with a
delicate precision. Now and then
he fills his pipe with the mix
ture and tests the flavor with a
few minutes of. huffing.
No, that won't quite do. A
little more Prince Albert, or Vel
vet, or Edgeworth, or Granger,
or something else; a little less
perique, perhaps. The pipe is
knocked empty; pinch is taken
from this or that can; the mix
ture is stirred again; the pipe
is refilled and relit, and there is
another test. And so the fas-
cinating inquiry proceeds, by
trial and error. At last the tri-
umphant conclusion-the deter
'mination of the magic formula.

never mention the fact that it

thereby diminishes the support
these properties now provide for
schools all over North Carolina.
The latest report Of the State
Tax Commission gives the total
assessed valuation of real and
personal property in North
Carolina as $2,6S0,000,000. Ap-
ply to that the rate of Is cents
on the 800, and you get $4,000
900. This $4,020,000, then, is
what the state stands to lose by
removing the 15-cent levy.

port gives the assessed valuation
of the real and personal prop
erty of domestic corporations in
North Carolina as $440, 900, 900.

Probably no party platform
ever contained a more idiotic
plank than the one, in the North
Carolina Democratic platform,
which proposes to remove the Is
cent property tax now levied by
the counties for the support of
schools.
Here we are in desperate
straits for funds with which to
meet the necessary expenses of
the state government. The col
lections of revenue have declined
steadily, until there has been
piled up a huge deficit. In order
to pay it's teachers and other en-
ployees, the state has to borrow
on short-term notes. And yet
the men who control our govern
ment, the Democratic political
leaders, declare that the next leg
islature must pass a law that will
deprive the state of about $4,-
100000. 1t seems Incredible
but it is true.

To AdOrn Fire House
Community Club Women to Beautify
1t with Shrubs and Ivy

The aldermen have approved a
suggestion from the women of
the Community Club that the
fire department building, at
Rosemary lane and Columbia
street, be adorned with ivy and
shrubs. The suggestion was
made to the board in a letter
from Mrs. Felix A. Grisette
chairman of the civics depart
ment Of the club.
"We are informed" she wrote,
that there are always two or
more men stationed at the build
ing who, having some time on
their hands, will doubtless be
glad to help us with the plant
ing and willing to undertake the
care Of the plants during the
early stages Of growth. DR..
Coker has offered to give us the
plants.
Thus, at no cost to the town,
the building may be in time cov-
cred with ivy and set off with
shrubs, so that it will blend in
with the beautiful vista beyond. >

ton afforded them the animals have
increased to 10000. A census taken in

HYBRID BEAR TYPICAL NAMES

DR.. Griffiths' description of his new
hybrid lilies has come to our desk.
1t goes into the minute details of
each of the five lilies, and 1t would
take whole page of the ews-Record
to copy it; but here are few of the
items that interest us.
The five lilies are named Shucksan,
Kulshan, Douglas Ingram, Sackajawea,
and Star of Oregon. They are all de-
rived from Lilium Humboldt, cross
pollinated with Lilium Paradalinum,
and are clons developed from Seeding
selections made in 1924. The names
are commemorative of some of the
Indian names Of this magic land Of
the great Northwest.
Shuksan is the aboriginal and mod
ern name of beautiful white peak,
SO miles from the city of Bellingham,
Wash. Color cadmium yellow over
laid with flush of red. The numer-
GUS spots are black surrounded with
a halo Of red. The bulb is rhizoma-
tous and it is partly stem-rooting.
Kulshan is the aboriginal name OF
the most conspicuous and lofty peak
of the Bellingham region which Capt.

Humboldt magnificum. They are
beautiful lilies and there will DO n
great demand for them In the years
TO come. Those Of our Lily Associ-
alton who have them should exercise
the greatest care In their PROPAGATION
and multiply them as fast as possible
but with safety. Or. Griffiths has
given them beautiful names. When
first saw Sakajawea In bloom imagi-
nation pictured her before me as the
noble indian girl who led Lewis and
Clark, and Just like the Indian women
of my boyhood days with their black
hair and, checkered shawl and moe
casins, and I just looked and looked.
My hybrids have set seed freely from
pollen Of the different Washington
ianum. There may be some breaknp
in light color will result. but am
hoping and dreaming that my dreames
of new type may come true. What
delightful sideline this hybridi2ing
is, We are dealing with possibilities
and probabilities, gambling with ma
ture with no money investment. Only
time perseverance and patience, hop
ing some morning to stand face to
face with some new creation OF our
own that the world never saw before.

FLOOR HEATING OF POULTRY
HOUSES HEALTHFUL FOR BIRDS

Floor heating will do away with the
wet litter in poultry houses, accord
ing to a series Of experiments con-
Quoted by M. Wayne Miller, poultry
man at the Western Washington ex-
pertinent station, Puyallup. This
method solves the condensation prob
lem and also supplies enough heat to
facilitate the evaporation of moisture
from the litter.
To study the effect Of floor heat on
dry litter, it was necessary to con-
struct double floor and to circulate
warmed air between the two floors.
The floor joists were staggered to al
low continuous circuit of air. The
circuit was closed by the use of air
ducts and fan used to keep the air
in circulation. Heating elements were
placed within the circuit SO that 1t
was possible to introduce any amount
of heat under the floor desired.
Temperatures Of the air under the
floor and Of the air just above the
floor were recorded on q recording
thermograph, explains Mr.. Miller.
Also humidity conditions were record
ed inside of the house and outside.
The house was ventilated through IL
inch shaft ventilators. It was found
necessary to keep the temperature
under the floor degrees warmer than
the air above.
Under these conditions, the litter
remained dry for three weeks at which
time the litter was changed. At three
weeks the litter was perfectly dry and
could be kept dry indefinitely. Dur
ing the time Of the experimentation.
the weather was unfavorable for
maintaining dry litter.
During the series of experiments it
was found that the litter in the in
sulated and closed pen became wet
quickest, and that it remained dry
longest in the open type OF laying
house. The ceiled pen and the closed
front pen both showed higher aver
age temperature and lower variation
in temperature from day to day, ac-
cording to Mr.. Miller.
Egg production was just as high in
the open-front house as in the eeiled
and closed houses. No appreciate
difference In mortality was recorded.
After more than two years of ex-
perimenting with the poultry housing
1t was found that forced or natural
