He is apparently enjoying a good
business.
The Wagoner Lumber company, re
cently incorporated in this state, will
engage in the manufacture of veneer,
and expects to start its plant in the
very near future.
Crops in this section have come
out wonderfully in the past few days,
and the outlook now is for a good
average crop of tobacco and cotton.
The ^obacc interests of Pamplico are
making every effort to take care of
the crop this year by. building a large
new brick warehouse, converting one
of the old warehouses .into storage
rooms for the buyers. This will till
the need for storage capacity this
year.

census and stock transactions in New
York, says William H. Edwards, col
lector of Internal Revenue for this
district. Six thousand stock brokers,
he said, pay a license tax of $50 ac
cording to the salable value of. their
seats on local exchanges.
Of tlie 1,000 commission brokers,
those who are members of an ex
change where produce or ether wares
are traded in pay a yearly tax of $ .o
A two cent (ax on shares traded in

daily. Unlisted corporations having
a home office in tlie United States are
subject to the original issue tax of 5
cents a share on all stocks valued
at $100 or fraction thereof.
The monthly sale of documentary

Big Value in Tires

Back of the manufacture of Goodyear Tires
for the smaller cars is the same purpose to
supply high value in the product that is behind
the manufacture of the Goodyear Tires that
equip the most expensive automobiles built.
This purpose is expressed by the enormous
resources, extraordinary skill and scrupulous
care applied to the manufacture of Goodyear
Tires in the largest tire factory in the world
devoted solely to the 30x3-, 30x3V2-, and
31 x4dnch sizes.
The effect of this endeavor is noted in the
fact that last year more cars using these sizes
were factory*equipped with Goodyear Tires
than with any other kind.
It is also noted in the fact that if you own a
Ford, Chevrolet, Dort, Maxwell, or other car
requiring one of the sizes mentioned, you
can secure Goodyear Tires and Goodyear
Heavy Tourist Tubes at the nearest Goodyear
Service Station.
