Both were emphatic in pointing to
evils that might arise if Hoey is

North Carolina for the next four
years.

TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS
ANSWERED AT COLLEGE

Question: Does altitude make any
difference in the time of processing
in canning fruits and vegetables?
Answer: Yes. Water boils at ap-
proximately two degrees lower for
every 100 feet above sea level and
it is necessary, therefore, to cook
products longer in high attitudes, as
the lower temperatures will not ster-
ilize as readily as the sea level boil
ing point. A table showing the prop
er processing time for the higher al
titudes is given in Extension Miscel-
laneous Pamphlet No. 80, copy of
which will be sent free upon appli-
cation to the Agricultural Editor at
State College.

will be impossible to destroy all
flies in the larvae stage. Therefore,
it is advisable to use traps, poisons
and sprays in fighting this pest.
A good poison can be made by
mixing three quarts of skim milk
with one-fourth quart of Tornado
hyde and one-fourth quart of mo-
lasses. Place the mixture in shallow
containers where the flies are, but
where animals and paultry cannot
get at it.
A good spray is very effective,
Arey stated. A number are now on
the market. Follow the directions
given, he said, and good results will
be obtained.
Good fly traps can be purchased
or made at home. Farmers Bulletin
No. 734, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, Washington, contains direc-
tons for making traps at home.

agement at State College, employ on
ly contractors known to be reliable
and compeent.
The contractor is responsible for
doing the job so that the wiring will
be adequate and safe, but the home
owner should determine where
switches, lights, convenient outlets,
and branch circuits are to be located.
Miss Gordon suggested that home
owners draw floor plans of their
houses and locate switches, outlets,
and lights where they will be most
convenient. Then go over this plan
with the contractor.
If the cost of wiring according to
this plan is too high, the contractor
will assist the home owner in max.
ing adjustments.
Above all else, she warned, do not
try to economic by using wire toe
small to carry the load that will be
imposed upon it.
In planning the wiring circuits
lights, and outlets, take into consid.
Grafton the uses to which electricity
will be put in each room. If radio
for example, is to be operated in the
living room, provide a convenient
outlet in the wall close at the place
where the radio will be located.
Do not plan only for the fixtures
and appliances that will be used al
first. Make adequate provision fol
various devices that may be obtained
in the future, Miss Gordon urged.
Plenty of convenience outlet.

CLEAN UP PREMISES TO
CONTROL FLY BREEDING

One female fly in the spring, al
lowed to live and breed, may leave
millions of descendent by fall.
Don't give them chance to breed,
cautions John A. Arey, extension
dairy specialist at State College.
Start control measures as soon as
possible.
Flies are not only carriers of filth
and disease, but they are constant
source of annoyance to cattle and
livestock. Cows will not give as
much milk if continually harassed
by flies.
The first step in getting rid of this
nuisance is to eliminate breeding
places, Arey continued. Manure from
stables should be removed daily, if
possible.
When practical, it is best to haul
the manure direct to the fields
where it can be spread over the
land. Where this is impractical, at
least try not to leave large piles of
manure lying around for many days
at time.
Clean up the premises of the house
and barnyard, he continued. Any
filth left exposed will serve as a
breeding place for flies.
With the best of care, however, it

Philadelphia Gets
Ready for Its First
Convention Meet
1850 Can Be Seated in Hall in
City That Turned Down
F. ID. r. in 1886

Steadfastly Republican for SO
years, Philadelphia is donning gala
party dress for her first national
Democratic convention.
June % will find her huge marble,
limestone and steel auditorium, COM
pleted in 1881 at cost of $5,300,000,
completely redecorated for the occa-
sion-but with a difference.
"There will be no bunting" says
Howard L. Smith, architect for the
national Democratic committee.
"We intend to use paint as much
as possible. The idea will be to give
the hall an aspect of permanency,
rather than the circus appearance
that might be obtained by a lavish
use of loose and Tapping decora-
tionS.''
Hall Will Seat 1850
Not single pillar will block vi
sion of the platform from the floor.
Under a 90-foot ceiling, the main
hall will seat 14,5OO persons-7,OOO
on the floor, $500 in the horseshoe
balcony and 1000 on the stage.
Accommodations for 700 press rep
resentatives, just in front of the
stage, will connect with pneumatic
tubes for copy to telegraph quarters
in the basement. More than go rooms
off the main arena, seating a dozen
to 100, are provided for committee
meetings.
The hall is on the edge of the
campus of the University of Penn
sylvania, 10 minutes from the center
of the city. Nearby is Franklin field
where James A. Farley, national
chairman, has announced the Demo
Gratis will notify President Roosevelt
of his denomination on Saturday
night, June q.
City Hall Gets Scrubbed
With an air of expectancy un-
equaled since the sesquicentennial in
1926, Philadelphia, in addition, has
given her city hall, hub of the me-
tropolis, scrubbin, has built new
road and rearranged traffic routes.
All this in the city that has been
even more solidly anto-Democratic
than Pennsylvania as a whole, which
was one of six states that turned
down Roosevelt in 1892.
The state did elect a Democratic
administration in 1884, but without
the acquiescence of Philadelphia.

Black Legion
Avenges Order
on Informer
Investigations of Order Continue
as Startling Facts Are
Disclosed

Mrs. Dorothy Guthrie, who had
previously gone in terror to the po-
lice and disclosed the hiding place
of the printing outfit the Black Lee
gion used to produce it's infiamma-
tory literature, was found gagged,
bound and brutally beaten in her
apartment in Detroit Wednesday The
attack was described by officials as
Undoubtedly the work of Black
Legion avenger."
The attack occurred half an hour
after Is men had been ordered held
for trial on charges of conspiring to
murder political enemies of the ter
rorist band.
Taken to hospital in an uncon-
scious condition, Mrs. Guthrie was
found to have no bones broken.
Regaining consciousness, she told
the authorities she was seized by a
man she did not see as she entered
her apartment about noon. She was
found about 3 p. m, unconscious, her
hands tied behind her and a black
cloth stuffed into her mouth.
Her husband was detained when
he called at a school shortly after
ward for their nine-year-old daugh-
ter. He said he knew nothing of the
attack upon his wife.
Dayton Dean, the Black Legion's
confessed ''executioner" in the slay-
ing of Charles A. Poole, calmly testi-
field in a packed courtroom in De-
troit Monday, of signing in blood an
oath with other members to carry
out plot to kill the fighting editor
of the local newspaper in Highland
Park, suburb of Detroit.
He said N. Ray MARYLAND, former
mayor of Highland Park, had com
planned repeatedly that he would be
ruined politically unless Dean and
otter Black Legion gunner succeed
ed in their persistent efforts to muir
der Arthur F. Kingsley, the editor,
whose newspaper helped defeat
MARYLAND for reelection in 1884.
MARYLAND was one of IL men
charged with conspiracy to murder
Kingsley.
eve were told there would be
three other men who would see that
if we didn't do the job we would be
taken care of ourselves" Dean testi-
fed.
In three communities or munich
palities in Michigan, drives were
started early in the week to purge
the public payrolls of all members of
the Black Legion.
In Highland Park, where an Off
cial described the situation as ''the
most serious in the city's history"
three firemen and two policemen
were suspended. Two other firemen,
accused with ten other men in a
Black Legion conspiracy to murder
Editor Kingsley, had already been
suspended.
In Lincoln Park, where a council
man had charged that the Black
Legion killed George Marchuk, labor
union organizer, in 1888, the council
ordered that every employee of the
municipality be required to sign an
affidavit that he is not member of
the hooded band.
In Pontias, every officer. and en-
ploye of the city and county was to
be required to appear before the
grand jury and swear he was not a
member of the Black Legion.

Answer: Seed potatoes should be
selected at harvest time Go through
the field just before general digging
and dig separately a large number
of hills, keeping the potatoes of each
hill to themselves. Select the seed
potatoes from those hills having the
largest number of uniform tubers
that are typical of the variety. Sc
lection of the seed potatoes from the
stored crop gives no assurance of
