When they do this, they will udd large numbers to the crowds of peo pie who come nere for their vacations. There are many who eithei prefer the country or l'eel that they can not afford to pay the higher hotel rates charged in the cities and towns. When they hnd no large or varied accommodations of the sort they want in this section, they naturally go elsewhere, carrying their money away from the Western North Carolinians who could have had it.for asking. The tourist business in Western North Carolina will not reach its possible peak until our farmers, like those in New England, go after the summer-visitor trade, equip their homes to attract it and advertise far niuc mc iMivauw?^ca mey nave to offer.--Asheville Citizen. Cherokee County Club Encampment The annual club encampment was held in Cherokee County on July 2122-23, 1926. On the morning of the 21 we started a large truck out to gather the children and their camping outfit together. We picked up twenty-one on Martin* Creek and then returned to Murphy and when the L. and N. train rolled in we found four more. Soon a jolly party was on iitettihaiafliMi.iiiiiiiiii-1 .... ..... ?

K. W. GRAY Pasture Grasses And Pasture Building Por Cherokee County tJ. R. iSams) Authorities state that about G00O dillerent grasses have been classified ai.d named in the world. While this i> tiue. the fanners of Cherokee County could get along quite well with eight out of the six thousand grasses so far as hay crops and temporary and permanent pastures are concerned. ! These eight grasses are as follows viz: Orchard grass, Tall Meadow ' Cat grass, Red Top, Timothy, Dallis grass, Meadow Fesene, KentuckyBlue grass and Beunudu grass. Then there are six clovers, (socalled) viz: White Dutch Japan, Alskve. Hod- Burr mul \thin* clover thai should be used liberally in every grass mixture. But clove* will not do much in Cherokee County except on rich warm nuturcd land, White Blooming Sweet Clover will j do well in any section of Cherokee County when lime is used freely, and on some soils it will do well with little or no lime; but it is a lime requiring legume. But White Dutch clover, Japan clover and Hop clover are small pasture plants independent lime requirements. Alasy^t js lo i some extent aIU] produces' aeavy crops of seed when not grazed loo close, and wiil remain in the pasture for several years. The White Dutch clover is perennial, and the Jupun Hop and Bur clover is perennial, and are annual reseeders. They should be sown in every pasture mixture for more reasons than one. They give variety to live stock. They come j along from Bur clover in February to Japan clover in September, and they gather nitrogen from the atmosphere i and place it in the soil to aid the ; grasses in growth, which have not I this power. Now with these eight i grasses and six clovers, the farmers | of Cherokee County have nothing to " keep them from enjoying the most J beautiful and profitable pastures, on.

Besides, the l?ooster is ready t testify that one can enjoy immensely by holding the right attitude toward the community in whihh he lives. ly lo .select rich land a; <1 sow propel j mixtures of these grasses and clovers, and then take the poper care when ; i-stahlished. No one ever thinks of preparing a ! piece of rich land and planting: goon seed corn in the soil and then going away till harvest time and expect to come hack and reap good harvest. Why then should .. farmer expect , more of grass and clover when planted than corn? Yet the grasses will endure great negligence and abuse and still yield a dividend; but the- ( proper care is bestowed. Up^,' prop. j erly established, ??S?s~and bushes should h?? .Vtpt down; it should never over-grazed, and should never be reseeded, cultivated and fertilized when it shows failure. What 1 mean by cultivation is by using a spike-tooth harrow on the sod occassionally and sow a light dressing of seed. In some instances where the sod becomes sod bound and the land becomes hard and tough the disc harrow and the spike-tooth harrow should be used with caution; and reseeded with an application of lime and acid phosphate is good for the pasture. Any management that keeps the grasses and clovers a dark green, wnd vigorous is good for the pasture, for the live stock und also for their owner. The "akin you love to touch" isn't as much of an ambition as the skin- ! flint you'd like to thrash. lis Ears ^ - . n'lMi M. UT, MURPHY, N. c.
