In this area few of the bolls had opem ed and, in their green state, the long wet period was very favorable to weevil damage. Auto Gas Death Toll Heavy. New York.— Poisonous gases are now a greater menace in peace than in war and more people die from car bon monoxide poisoning in New York than anywhere else in the world. Pro fessor Yandeir Henderson of Yale uni- v^Vsity, told the National Association of Police and Fire Surgeons in annual convention. Vertical exhaust pipes on all motor vehicles would remedy this situation, Professor Henderson said, as they would direct the gases upward and "out of the level of the air we breathe.” Dr. Charles Morris, chief medical examiner of this city, asserted that only deaths from vehicular accidents exceeded those from carbon monoxide poisoning,, induiUng accidental and suicidal gas asphyxiations. He esti mated that an automobile contami nates a volume of air equivalent to its space and height ( and 100 to 200 >ards iijrlength each minute. Shennandoah Ends First Leg of Trip, Fort Worth, Texas.—The giant naval dirigible Shenandoah arrived at Fort Worth at 7:25 o'clock in the evening. It was dark when the great ship skirted the city limits and, following the guiding light of the mooring mast beacon, passed over the eastern por tion of the city and settled at the nvUst. Little difficulty was encountered in making the ship fast. • [ A crowd of several thousand \wel- oomed the big craft and a mighty ova tion of whistle sand hells announced its arrival. National guardsmen aug mented by Boy Scouts and police, held hack the mob which stsrged forward as the Shenandoah's nose was drawn into the big cone of the mast l R-3 LEAVES FOR UNITED STATES BAHT ZEPPELIN WILL CARRY TWENTY-EIGHT GERMANS, AND 4 AMERICANS. Friedric ha fen.-Thirty-two persons ,vlll be on board the Zit 3 when the *iant dirigible, bu ll here by the Zep pel in company for the United States navy, departs for Lakehurst, N. J. Dr. Hugo Eckener, director of the Zeppelin company, made this state ■nent in announcing that two me- Jianiihad been added to the tier man personnel, bringing the total of those who will be on board to 2S Ger mans and four Americans. Dr. Eck ner says the airships is in excellent hapo. Because the principal agricultural ucupation of the population of Fried- richshafen and its vicinity is the rais ing of grapes for winemaking and of apples for cidermuking, Dr. Eckener has found it necessary to become a sort of self-appointed prohibition agent.. Gifts of alcoholic beverages have been showered upon the members af the crew, lint the Zeppelin director has ordered that none of it be taken along, save only two bottles of cog nac in the medical chest. Just be fore -the departure of the airship the ship will be searched from stem to stern for bottled goods as well as stowaways. The decision of Dr. Eckernsr, par tially influenced by both German and American members of the crew, not to start out on a Friday has not quite rid some members of the personnel of concern over superstitious considera tion.

CELEBRATION AT KINGS MOUNT Fertilizer Works Badly Burryed. Wilmington.—The Armour fertilizer works plant at Navassa, two miles northwest of the city, was badly dam aged by fire. It is estimated that the loss will amount approximately to $100,000. The wind was from the northwest, which fact probably saved the large plant of the Navassa Guano company by the empolyes of the Na- of the Armour plant. Ass stance was rendered the employes of the Armour company by the employe sof the Na vassa company, 4hts fact aided in pre venting the Armour plant being a to tal loss. ' * The fire occurred in the acid plant. This section of the big factory was laid in ruins within an hour after the fire was first discovered The file was gotten under control with n two hours after it started. It is estimated that approximately $250:000 will be necessary to restore the plant, since the greater part of the damage was in th£ stored materials. Name Charlotte For Annual Meet.

Kings Mountain —The Kings moun tain celebration lacked the interest and enthusiasm that ^attended last year’s mammoth event, when Senator Royal S. Copeland, of New York, was the speaker, Jjut at that there were 6,000 or more people there from a dozen counties in the Piedmont Caro linas. Tho e in charge of the big event made a manful efforj to get John W. Davis and two or three United States senators present as drawing cards, and held out in their publicity up to a week or two ago that Davis would he there. Governor Morrison and Congress man Bulw.nkle were the biggest dig nitaries present, the chief magistrate doing the talking. The governor's speech was purely patriotic. Not once did he touch upon politics or the port and terminal bill. He extolled the bravery of the fore fathers who saved American liberty at Kings Mountain in 1870, and declared that the same spirit characterized North Carolinians today. "It is just as necessary to preserve the principles of law and liberty now as it was then," he said. “Liberty does not mean license, and bolshevlsts and anarchists hav eno place in the American government.” Turning to the progress. North Car olina is making, the governor pra sed the spirit that made responsible the fine roads, wonderful schoolhouses and charitable institutions in the state. “We have made lots of money but we have not gone off after strange gods," he said. Preceding the speaking at the grad ed school grounds there was a parade of civic and mercantile floats a mile long through the streets of the town. FROSTS PLATED GOVERNMENT CORN CROP FORE CAST SHOWS 54,000 000 BUSH EL LOSS. Washington.—Frosts played havoc with thb country’s corn crop during September and the forecast of produc tion by the crop reporting board of the’djparimfnt of agriculture showed a loss of 54,000,000 bushels in the month with the present prospective production placed at 2.4’59,000,000 bushels wit hthe total crop now pre low grade. The wheat crop’s prospects were increased tut the extent Of 19,000.000 bushels wit hthe total crop now pre liminarily estimated at 856,000,000 bushels, of which 589,000,000 is win ter wheat. Spring wheat, the prelim inary estimate shows, is an excellent crop, with 266,000,000 bushels of which 93.4 per cent is of a high me dium grade, • There is a large crop of oats, esti mated at 1,509,000.000 bushels; a po tato crop that is above average, with prospective production placed at 424,- 000,000 bushels, or 33.000.000 bushels more than last year; and a large culti vated hay crop of 95,100,000 t<fns, or about ten million tons aboxe average^ Tobacco production, estimated a*. 1.182,000 000 pounds, is 309,000.000 pounds below last years crop and'rke is below expectations^ Sweet pota toes, apples and cranberry production also are below last year Reports of a low condition of corn come from all parts of the country and throughout the south it is "tlio poorest corn crop in years’’ in many localities. A large proportion of soft corn is inevitable an dthe percentage merchantable will be much below average. A decrease of about 18 per cent in production of wheat this year as com pared with last year is indicated for 27 counties of the porthern hemis phere producing about 60 per cent of the crop. Practically complete and official estimates place the quantity at 1.509.000.600 bushels, compared with 1.S41.000.000 bushels last year.

Hopes to Save Harrell. Fort Mill—Feeling that a miscar riage of justice may be involved in the recent death sentence imposed upon Frank -Harrell in Cheraw, coart who, with Mortimer King, was_ convicted of the murder of Maj Samuel H. Mc- Leary. United Stakes army officer, ;n Chesterfield bounty last May, Mayor \V. R. Bradford of Fort Mill has inter ested himself in securing competent counsel to protect his interests, in the hope and expectation of obtaining a commutation of sentence to imprison ment for a term of years Mr. Bradford states it as his opinion that the testimony of King at the trial tended to exonerate Harrell as an ac tive participant in the conception and execution of the crime and should therefore be made to suffer only for. the fault of being in bad company.
