Burley Leaf
Growers Vote
December II

College Station, Raleigh, Nov. 25.-
Burley tobacco growers will be called
upon to vote on marketing quotas on
December 17,Sten days after the Asbe-
vile market, the only hurley trade
center in the State, opens. 1t is an
especially busy time for hurley grow
ers, but they owe il TO themselves 70
know what the referendum will mea,
and why marketing quotas are neces-
sary, says E. Y. Floyd, AAA execu.
tive officer at State College.
The marketing quota plan is a part
Of the Triple-A program. Acreage al
lotments and soil-building practices
are in the program every year. If ali
hurley tobacco farmers planted within
their acreage allotments, marketing
quotas would not be necessary in
most years, Floyd explained.
Under the farm act Of 1888, mar
keting quotas are announced by the
Secretary of Agriculture when the
supply of hurley tobacco is above Ike
level defined as the amount needed
III OoO III ILLS COuHLIy dIlu 1Or eX-
port" the AAA officer stated. "Burlev
supply is now above that point. The
farmers themselves will decide in
referendum on December II whether
they want quotas in 1889. If more
than one-third of the growers voting
oppose the quota, it will not become
effective.
1T now looks like the 1888 crop will
be about so million pounds above the
consumption level. This is largely
the result of the usually high yield per
acre in 1888 If there had been no
marketing quota in 1888 the total sup
ply would be materially larger" Floyd
said.
Burley tobacco growers are in posi-
ton to produce more than O,OOOOOO
pounds of tobacco a year. The cor
sumption level of this tobacco is
around 340,OOO,O0O pounds q year.
Continued production above consumr-
ton would certainly mean lower
prices and income than in the past
four years, and that is why we ned
marketing quotas, Floyd concluded.

IF THE European dictators and
democracies and soviet states could
learn lesson from the functions of
the body, the world would be very
much more peaceful and happier
place. Some Of the organs, like the
stomach, are democratic and some,
like the heart, respond to Dictator
ship. The heart works faithfully
all the time and overtime and never
stages a sit-down strike - except
once.
I suppose the brain is closest to
the soviet state; it is always bawl-
ing the other organs out and get
ting mixed up in its own machinery,
but somehow, in most instances,
muddling through.
The ductless glands are the die
tators, some of them ruthless and
some of them benevolent despots.
In regulating the mechanisms Of the
body, the pituitary, which we stud
led yesterday, is probably the most
potent. But not far behind it are
the adrenal glands, two small pieces
of tissue, one seated on the upper
pole of each kidney.
Has Two Parts
They consist of two parts. The
central part is a different gland,
entirely different in function and
structure from the cortex or rind of
tissue which surrounds it.
The central part consists of the
cells which form adrenalin, chem
ical hormone that does an active
part in regulation. 1t works along
with the pituitary secretion and
they influence each other.
Here are some of its functions. If
an extra amount of adrenalin is shot
into the blood stream, this releases
the stored-up sugar in the liver and
also stimulates the pancreas to form
insulin with which the muscles can
burn the sugar, thus creating en-
ergy When you have lot of work
to do, a rigorous task, or when you
want to be poppy, be sure your adre-
nalin secretion is working all right.
Adrenalin controls the amount of
blood that is allowed to go to each
part and it varies this with the
changing needs.
Controls Blood Pressure
It also exerts a regulatory control
of the blood pressure. The admin
istration of adrenalin raises blood
pressure. Some surgeons believe

This Is Success
I Story OF Boy Who
Gained Corn Goal
-

Newton, Nov. 25. = This is a
tRuccess story, of boy who set his
goal at 100 bushels of corn an acre
three years ago and achieved it this

Beatty of the Sherrills Ford 4-H
Club, now a freshman student at
State College.
The story is told by G. r. McColl,
assistant Catawba County farm agent
of the Extension Service, who is
rsBuck's'' All Club advisor.
In 1885 young Beatty planted two
acres in corn and harvested 80 bus
1aels an acre, winning a wrist watch
Tor the largest yield of any All Club
boy in the county The next year a
wet season affected his field more
than others and his corn yield fell to
$50 bushels on the two acres, or an
average of IS bushels an acre.
This year he tried harder than ever
TO achieve the 100-bushels goal, SOW
ing his land to crimson clover in the
fall Of 1887 and turning it under in
the spring. He used 1000 pounds of
.16 percent acid phosphate, IT'S pounds
of muriate of potash and side dress
ing Of 400 pounds of nitrate of soda.
He left for college, leaving instruc-
lions with his brother as to the har-
west.
Assistant Agent McColl was called
out to measure the corn. He found

Honesty in All Things
BRASS TAcKs" ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

We all like to own things. It is
mark of man as distinguished from
the animals. The latter have family
feeling of ownership SO that the male
beast will protect his mate and the
mother her children. But aside from
that they do not understand such
hungry they take what they need
wherever they find it.. We call it steal
ing when foxes kill our chickens and
eat them, and other animals take
things they need to satisfy their hun
ger. But it is not stealing from their
point of view. They are obeying the
only law they know-that of hunger
There is always a great deal of
stealing. We think the '.'crime wave,
as. we call it, is dreadful and stealing

There are many ways of stealing
besides breaking into houses or hold

the very worst is to steal another's
good name; to tell discreditable things

, that removal of the adrenal glands
| is the proper treatment for high
blood pressure. 1t is true that in
some cases tumors of the adrenal
have been found in conjunction with
high blood pressure.
The other part of the adrenal-
the cortex-has functions connected
in some way with the functions Of
reproduction. 1t influences the go
nads, and masculinity and feminin-
ity in some way depend on its secre-
ton. Bearded women usually have
something the matter with their
adrenal cortex. A woman may be-,
gin to grow hair on the face, assume
a masculine walk and begin to speak
in a deep voice. Examination shows
she has tumor of the adrenal. Re-
moval of this results in restora-
ton to the feminine status.

Answer: az If the callouses do
not yield to ordinary corn plasters,
the only thing I know Of to do is to
have them cut off bysa surgeon or
podiatrist. (2> The description is
somewhat indefinite but it sounds
like ringworm. Use the following

l.. B.: "Would the regular use Of
an enema do any injury? How often
can they be taken?"
Answer: Yes. There are many
cases of irritable colon and pune
tate infection of the colon from the
over-zealous use of enemas. They
should not be used regularly at all.
Colonic fiushings do even more
harm.

 Four years in the making. it's pam cramic scenes necessitating the transformation of a California a mountainside into Chinese land scape with acres of rice fields. gar dens and villages The Good Earth is not only an artistic achievement but is one of the most stirring. most vibrating and gripping stories ever to be unfolded on the screen in the history of picture-making.
 No little of this is due the DOT trayals of it's two stars, Paul Muni and Luise Rainier in the respec- tive roles of the poor Chinese far mer, Wang, and his obedient.. self effacing slave-girl wife, O-Lan. Here are two portrayals of sheer bril- lance and acting intensity. Muni and Miss Rainier not only make you see the Chinese farmer and his wife but feel them, breathe with them and believe in them. It is questionable whether any two other personages of either screen or stage could have played these roles as Muni and Luise Rainier play them.
 In admirable support of the stars is a cast headed by Walter Con- molly, lilly Losch, Charley Grape win, Jessie Ralph and hundreds of Chinese players outstanding of which is the work of 500 Yong, Keye Luke, Roland Lui, Suzanna Kim Chingwah Lee, William Law and Mary Wong. The excellent work of the cast, together with the sensitive, artistic and perceptive di- rection of Sidney Franklin fuse the whole of the narrative together giving it a sparkling clarity and emotional depth.

NEW YORK LIFE MAKES GAIN IN .'37, SAYS WILDES
Over Two Billion Dollars Paid PoIicyholders Dur
 ing Past Ten Years

Pclicyholders and beneficiaries of the New York Life Insurance Com pany were paid over $191, 100000 in 1887, bringing the total of such payments for the past ten years to over two billion dollars. Thomas A. Buckner, Chairman of the Board, announced at the February meeting of the companys Board of Direct ors in New York City. according to advices received here by Keith G. Wildes, Juneau representative.
 The distribution of this vast sum not only benefited directly many thousands of policyholders, homes and families, wives and chil- dren, but also provided a strong stabilizing influence upon the so- cial structure of the nation as a whole. further said MT Wildes.
 New life insurance issued during the year amounted to $477 100000, an increase of $26,000,0O0 over 1886. Insurance in force on December 3l, 1887 aggregated $6,770,000000, gain of $109,000,000 over the close of 1886.
 Assets on December 31, 1887 amounte to $2,52O, 100000, which represents an increase of. $116,000,- 900 during the year. Included in the assets are United States Gov ernment, direct. or fully guaranteed bonds amounting to $512,000, 900. This item is $72,000,O00 greater than at the end of 1886 and now &C., counts for about 20 per cent of the total assets.
 State, county and municipal bonds amounted to 100000, a gain of ever $26,00O,000 as compared with the close of 1886. Canadian bonds aggregated over 59,000,0O0, and the total amount of railroad, public utility, industrial and other bonds was $576,OOO000.
 First mortgages on city properties aggregated $4O0 ,UOu,UUO, or 10 per cent of all the assets, and policy loans of $355, 100000 were IA per cent of the total.
 Included in the liabilities is special investment reserve of $40 100000, and a reserve for dividends payable to policyholdiers in 1888 amounting to $39 9,9OO,00o Surplus funds reserved for general conting- encies amounted to $124,000,000.
 Although the mortality experience of the company in 1897 was fav- orable, taxes paid were greater than for the previous year and interest rates obtainable on new highgrade investments continued low.
