LEGION AERIAL
DRIVE RECORD
is SHATTERED
$4,000 Memberships Are
Flown to City in
Annual Roundup.

All records for the American
Legions annual aerial membership
drive stood shattered today with the
national membership total at All all
time high of $4,000. Last years
total of $4,000 was the previous
record.
More than 20 planes participated
yesterday in the annual drive while
approximately $4,000 pers on S
thronged Municipal Airport. The
planes brought in $4,000 pair~up
membership cards from all parts of
the country.
Prominent among those who few
to the airport in the annual round
up we're Maj. Gen. Oscar Westover,
Army Air Corps chief, and David E.

Pan-American Always.
Greeted by Murphy
They were greeted by Ray Muir
ply, Ida Grove, Ia, Legion national
commander who also was the Off
cial welcomer for the Des Moines
(Ia) Register Tribune's flying
news room," Good News 9Th, which
carried the Iowa departments mem
bership cards.
Maj. Gen. Westover spoke last
night at the annual roundup ban
quet at the Antlers. He said the
United States Air Corps lacks equip
ment and is four and one-half
years behind its program.
This program, formulated in 1880,
has been hampered by curtailed
budgets, he said, and while this
years budget is more generous, it
will not provide for many new
ships.

PASTURAGE LANDS

Cast.Off Acres No More
Suited for That Than for
Crop Purposes

College Station, Raleigh Jan. Is
Unfortunately for the dairy industry
of North Carolina, many farmers
have the idea. that land too poor for
anything else might well be put to
pasture for cattle.
We have the erroneous idea that
when land becomes so depleted of soil
fertility that il cannot produce cash
crops profitably, this land still is suit
ed to pasture" says John A. Arey,
dairy extension specialist at State
College. However such land cannot
produce profitable pasture until inn
proved, and that such vegetation as
it does grow should be left there TO
prevent erosion. To produce the kind
of pasture en- which a cow can eat
her fill within Il short time requires
DIS fertile soil as is required to pro-
duce good crops"
Arey believes that there is enough
cut-over fertile land on most farms
to provide sufficient acreage for pas

ture AT present much of this land is
covered with brush. Then, too, in the
Piedmont section, such land is often
rolling and unsuited to cultivated
crops since il washes easily. If this
land is cleared this winter and seed
ed during February or early March,
q fine pasture can tie started and the
sod win prevent erosion.
February also is a splendid month
to re-wC,ll old pastures The thin
places should be- re-seeded and the
whole acreage given a top-dressing of
manure or about 800 pounds to the
acre of a good fertilizer. The dairy
farmers who are short of feed, might

WANTS QUALITY OF
SCHOOLS IMPROVED
Daily Dispatch R1rcHu,
IN The Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh. Jan. 28.-Improvement IN
the qaulity of the schools in North
Carolina. rather than an increase in
quantity, is the Immediate need Of the
schools, DR.. Ralph w. Mcdonald said
in reply to a request from this bu-
reau for a statement outlining his,
position with regard to the public
schools and especially with regard to
a State supported nine months school
term. Dr. Mcdonald said he did not
favor a Statewide, State supported
nine months school term until the
State is able to improve the quality
Of the eight months term. He also
said he believed the local units which
want q nine months school term or
a twelve grade system, should pro-
vide it from local supplementary
taxes, at least until the time comes
when the State is more able to pro-
vide these things.
"a nine months school term is de-
siracla; it is necessary for those COM
munitieS which want or expect to
maintain high schools accredited by
the Southern Association of Second
AIRY Schools and Colleges" DR.. Nc
Donald said. Nov is no time, how
ever. to talk about Statewide nine
months school term. In 1923 the State
supported school term was increased
from six to eight months, but the
amount of money actually provided
for its support was actually less than
had previously been provided for the
six months term. Thus, quality in the
schools was sacrificed in a very strik
ing manner for an extension of the
State supported term.
Hence the present problem is two
fold First, to increase the amount Of
State school support. Second to en-
