ONE Of our favorite opponents is

reached a certain contract on correct
bidding. he should make it. Hence,
If an opponent doubles, he redoubles

in all probability the double may in
dicate a massing of trumps in back
of him and that his hand. which

HUNTERS OF STATE
READY FOR SPORTS
Certain Seasons Already Begun and
Others Soon To Follow in
North Carolina
Daily Dispatch Rurenus
I'm TIM Sic. Waiter. HNfRI.


Raleigh, Sept. 11-Red circles
should be put around numerous dates
on the calendar to help sportsmen
; render that in North Carolina some
of the most popular shooting in the
country can be INDUCED in, the world
in general has been informed by Bill
Sharpe, one of the ballyhooers of the
States advertising campaign.
But before multilation of the cal
endar begins, here is an interesting
prelim," writes Mr.. Sharpe, "Marsh
hens, rails, gallinules and sora. The
season on these spindle legged stilt-
walking shorebirds began on Septem-
Der /, and will continue through No
vember 3d."
On the fifteenth of September comes
the first of two dove seasons when
powder and shot angle skyward at
these speeding darts all over the State.
The seasons are from September Is to
October Is and from December 20 to
January 81.
While "doodling" on the calendar,
says Mr.. Sharpe, heavy circles should
go around October to emphasize the
beginning of the deer hunting season,
and bear and squirrel hunting in the
eastern counties.
Deer are reported more numerous in
North Carolina than for many years.
The day for the upland game birds,
quail and wild turkey, arrives Novem-
Der 90 The eastern swamp lands and
forests and several areas of the Pied
mont furnish some of the best wild
turkey hunting in the country. The
season on these two great upland
birds extends through February IS.
Federal regulations apply to North
Cardinals migratory waterfowl sea-
son, which opens on November 27.
Uncle Sam has spoken and there will
be no Thanksgiving shooting this
year. Hunters may bang away at
waterfowl, through December 26.

PROGRESS OF FARM
IN YEAR RECOUNTED
More Profitable Agriculture and More
Pleasing Rural Life Being
Provided

College Station Raleigh, Sept. IL
Progress made by farmers and farm
women in building a more profitable
agriculture and a more pleasing rural
life during the past year has been re-
corded in the annual report of the
Agricultural Extension Service of
State College and copies of the print
ed report are now available.
The report, prepared '1y Dean I. o.
Schaub, director of the Extension Ser
vice, and John w. Goodman, assis-
tant director, bears the title "Re-
building a Fair Land" and consists
of AZ pages of type, illustrations and
charts. The report shows that 21O,355
of the more than 100000 farm families
in North Carolina were reached by
some form of the extension activity.
< Since extension work is based on
actual demonstrations both in the
field as we'll as in the home much of
the report deals with the results far
mers secured with these demonstra-
tons.

placed on a sounder 'sasis in 1886 than

that government, to no lesser degree
than business, must have balanced
budget if it is to Se efficient and
economical.
The south must value the fulmina-
tions of Guffey and O'Connell and
John L. Lewis at their face value.
If democracy and freedom are to
survive, the name Democrat" must
be rescued from it's impossible con-
notations of today, and the real DEM
ocratic party be purged of such ele-
ments as the reclaimed CIO and the
pale pastels of the parlor Socialist
and theoretical government expert
:nenter.
Throughout the history of the Unit
ed States, from the south has come
the bulk of the leadership that has
piloted, so far, the ship of state safely
along the course of constitutional
democracy.
From Virginia, Georgia, the Caro-
Nnas, Tennessee, Kentucky have
sprung the patriots who have stood at
the helm through the stormlest pc
riods of. the nations life.
During the past session of congress
the faith of the fathers and the fun
damentals of American liberty were
upheld by such southerners as Glass
and Byrd, of Virginia; Smith, of
South Carolina; Bankhead, of Ala
bama and George, of Georgia.
It is time for the Democracy OF the
south today, to decide again whom
it Will serve Whether it should col
Of
."atic regimented Socialistic Fas
cis1n, as revealed in the program OF
the radical groups in The administra-
ton. or whether it shall enlist under
the banners of true Democrats an
continue the long struggle to 0reserv
the sanctity of the constitution ane
the fundamental liberties of the peo
pie.
There has never been a more op
rortune time FOR the Democratic
south to assert its rights and assume
the position to which it is entitled.
Since 1861 the balance of power in
the party has rested elsewhere Now
a rare opportunity is presented fof
the south to assume this balance OF
power in place of the other sections
whose ,celiefs are largely inimlcal to
Democratic ideals.
From the standpoint of pure poll
teal strategy the opportunity is here
for the south to be recognized as
NJ ,er before in national politics. Foi
the eight years since the War Be
tween the States this section has
eaten the crumbs falling from the
table in the political kitchen.
A move to the dining room is in
eyitable and right, if the Democratic
leaders of the south, backed by the
unanimous sentiment of the rank ant.
file of the party, will now insist tina
the Democratic body must not longer
be wagged by the Democratic tail.
Certainly there have been few times
in the history of the party, when i
has been as important as it is now
that the Democrats of the south take
political stock to judge on what path
the future leads.

in the report. There have been times
when the farm income was higher

the report were printed but as long
