A telephone call was put throuph n
the office of Charles G. Powell. chair
man fthe unemployment commission
in Raleigh, but he was found to ha
out of the city, as was E. w. Price hS
assistant. A DR.. Curtis, in Prices Of.
flee, was located, and he said that pre-
paration of the checks was in process
a statement similar to information
that has been given inquiries from
Henderson for the last two weeks. He
assured callers by telephone that the
checks would certainly be here bv
Monday
Keller by Monday was not sufficient
to meet the demands of the workers
who said they had to have food over
the weekend. Thereupon, further re.
quest was made to determine whether
or not it would be possible to get the
checks here this afternoon, and if
was said that if they could be received
during the afternoon or even tonight
they would be distributed without a
moments delay.
Mrs. Austin said the basis for the
payments that have been made the
past two weeks by the county has been
about on the old ERA schedule, rough
ly fifty cents per week per person.
Some of the workers said, however,
they had received $1.75 and $500 in
families of eight, and one said he had
received $3.50 in family of nine.
There has been talk for several
days of a mass demand by the idle
workers, without jobs since the mills
suspended several weeks ago, for re-
lief. From time to time during the
period word from Raleigh has been
that the checks would be here TO
morrow" or day after tomorrow" or
like dates. But no checks had come
today, and the people, without food or
the means to buy it, were becoming
desperate.

Urges Each Grower To Ballot
March 10

Because of the tremendous impor-
lance cotton and tobacco marketing
quotas may play in the future farm
status of North Carolina, E. Y. Floyd,
AAA executive officer at State Col
lege, is urging every affected farmer
to cast his ballot in the two-crop re-
ferenda March IL.
1--WE want to get a vote representa-
tive of the wishes of most growers, ,
Floyd declared, "but we shall be hand
icapped unless every grower makes It
a point to visit his community polling
place that day to vote either yes or
no. on the quotas"
The balloting will be in charge of
the county committee of the Agricul-
tural Conservation Association. Three
farmers in each community will be APP
pointed by the county committee to
hold the polls in their township.
Any grower who produced cotton
or flue-cured tobacco will be eligible
to cast his ballot. If he produced both
crops, then he will be permitted to
vote on both cotton and tobacco:
otherwise, he can express his opinion
only on that crop which he produced.
A two-thirds majority will he neces-
sary to put the 1888 quotas into eff
feet Tobacco and cotton quotas will
be given each state, which will b I.
divided upon among counties, and
then among the farms of each county.
Mass meetings of farmers at which
representatives of the AAA office at
State College will be present have
been scheduled for each of the go
counties affected by the referenda.
Farm agents will have charge of ad
ministering the new farm program,
as they have other Federal crop pro-
grams in the past.
Question: When should the first
spray be applied for control of scale
insects in my peach orchard?
Answer: If the orchard is badly in
tested with scale the spray should be
applied before the buds swell. An oil
spray should be used and applied as
directed by the manufacturer. If both
scale and leaf curl are bad, the lime
sulphur or 1910 Bordeaux mixtures,
with oil added, should he applied. Oils
do not control leaf curl and when adj
ding to lime-sulphur be sure that the
particular oil used is recommended
for this purpose by the manufactures
as only certain oils will mix with the
lime solution. If the spray cannot be
used before the buds swell, use the
concentrated lime-sulphur.

Boys Know Games Rules.
In spite of the soggy condition OF
the field, which slowed the light
players, some good football was
shown. But one penalty had to be
called all afternoon, and that against
the An-Stars for too many time-outs.
Tommy Whelan. former c. U. player,
who refereed the game, said after
ward that the shavers had displayed
a knowledge of football and football
rules that he had missed all season
while officiating at college games.
AS perhaps the headiest move OF
the game, he called attention to an
interception made by Allan Sond-
heimer OF the AM-Stars. who caught
a pass on fourth down from John
Laycock Of No. and promptly sat
down with it over the goal line. 1t
was an automatic touchback and
gave the ball TO the AN-Stars on the
20-yard line instead of on the 2-yard
line. where it outherwise would have
been.
On another occasion, he said. an
ineligible receiver ducked a forward
pass coming in his direction, know
ing that had he touched 1t the other
ball.
