Up to Last Week Twenty
Cars Have Been Shipped To
Help Nations Bread Basket

With threshing virtually complet-
ed with the exception Of last line
farms in the shock rings, the yellow
hordes Of grain began rolling into
terminals, farmers Of this section
began dumping small grains into
the local grain market, are making
their contribution to the nations
bread basket.
This week, with selling earnestly
getting under way, better than a
two car day average has been
maintained, more than 1000 bushels
have been daily shipped from the
Farmers Shipping Association mar
ket, manager Clarence Enright
said.
Inclusive Of Friday, 20 cars, about
10000 bushels, have Joined the cara
van of rolling stock that rolls into
the grain centers.
Through this city now pass long
lined freights emptying the bread
basket to the north Of its harvest.
F. s. Bonaime, Great Northern
agent, said this week, besides the
regular freight extras are passing
through daily.
For more than a week now the
selling has been at a fast pace. Op-
orators at the market face sleepless
nights, ridding the elevator of the
supply, loading the freight cars to
join the trains.
Grain selling rush is maintained
despite a low market. Saturdays
price for oats was 16 cents. Figur.
ing a yield at 60 bushels to the acre
which is high for an everage, the
acreage income brings only $3.50
$1.8O or 8 cents for each bushel

bill. 1t is figured farmer must
have ten dollars from an acre to

out. A truck shortage loomed in
the face of continuous calls from
farmers for farm-to-market gra1r
transportation.
According to Mr.. Enright locai
wheat is the best quality crop
There's a lot of number one and
two wheat" he said. Oats Is gen
orally regarded as the best quaint

That County's Greatest Needs
Today Is Agricultural Depts.

and flooring plant. We must admit
that we are not creating any new
wealth in the manufacturing field.
With our solvent credits constantly
decreasing, with our livestock con-
stantly decreasing, with our vege-
table bill constantly increasing,
when we are primarily an agricul-
tural county, just where are we
headed?
isn't it time for the pendulum to
swing in the other direction. How
are we going to swing the pendu-
lum? One of the answers and one
of the biggest answers is through
vocational training in our schools.
Time will not permit me to go
into the details as ! should like to,
but so long as we are primarily an
agricultural county there can be no
solution to this most serious econom-
ic problem in which we are drift
ing until we train our boys and girls
to do the thing intelligently that
they are going to do after school We
must be creators of wealth and not
just consumers of wealth only. The
man who operates the gas sta
tions or department store as worthy
as these enterprises are, IS not Gre
ating wealth.
With a well developed vocational
program properly directed, over
comparatively brief period of time
we can become economically set. It
requires training. With this training
and through cooperative effort Ashe
could become an economic empire.
Through a well developed pro-
gram and highly developed coopera-
tives Ashe county's products can and
will assume the commanding posi-
ton on the nations markets that c..

handing in Ashe county and Fred
edwards potatoes and cucumbers
are commanding with the leading
chain stores of the country and that

When these things happens, and
not until then, Ashe county will
have prosperous, contented, happy,

To Build ssSilver
Fox Farm On Top
OF Whitetop Min,
r. d. Harmon, OF Christianburg,
Va, Plans To Raise Animals
There For Sale.

A SILVER Fox farm" will be estab-
lished on the tip-top of Whitetop
mountain by r. d. Harmon, of
Christianburg, Va, who operates
two other farms on which fox are
raised, it was learned here this
week.
The farm will cover 20 acres of
woody mountain top where the alti-
tude is $500 feet above sea level. A
total of 200 small sheds to house
1900 of the young silver fox will be
erected. Each shed will serve as a
home for 6 of the sly, cunning ami
mails. A strong fence, both under
and on op<of the ground will be
built around the farm.
Mr.. Harmon stated that the breed
ing of the animals will be done on
his other farms and that they will
be put on this farm from August to
the first of the year, at which time
he proposes to sell them to various
hunting clubs throughout the coun-
try. Prices for the animals range
from SIS to $3.50, he said.
One interesting thing in connec-
ton with the farm on Whitetop is
that the climate there from Aug
ust through December is about the
same as in southern Canada.
Another interesting feature about
raising fox is the food given to
them. Mr.. Harmon said that he
feeds them meats, vegetables, GER
eals, fruits and meat from old, worn
out horses.
