Work on the cement dam at the old Tysor mill site on Rocky river is pro gressing nicely. About 30 men are employed there and it is thought that the dam will be completed in about two months, probably longer. The dam is to be 25 feet high. We understand tha tanother dam is to be built across Bear Creek within 100 yards of the Tysor mill, and that a canal is to be cut from the Rocky river dam thereby turning the water into Bear Creek which would give the owners plenty of water from these two sources. The juice, to be obtained from this plant, is to furnish electricity for pow er and light for a cotton mill which is to be erected at Goldston the com ing winter and also furnish lights for that thriving little town and other nearby towns. Verily the streams of Chatham are being harnessed to help do the work that is so much needed. Something New Here. Messrs. Farrell and Farrell will op en up their meat market this week. These gentlemen have been to consid erable expense is putting in a cooling plant, which keeps meat, soft drinks, and other things ice cold without us ing a pound of ice.

Heretofore those who have been dealing in this article kept it on sale only on Satur days during the summer and some times the housewives were put to much trouble in getting fresh meats for their table. This new market will be dust and fly proof and the Messrs. Farrell de serve much credit for putting in such a plant as they have in Pittsboro. TRUTH NOTES.

Pittsboro’s Hard Surface Road Having a Battle. Warring delegates appearing before the State Highway Commission at its session Friday, one. faction lined up behind the Capital to Capital highway ; and the other armed with forensic bat teries on behalf of a new route that will leave the capital of North Caro lina off the map and make Durham the converging point of the road will probably consume a good portion of the first day of the session. Agitation for bringing the Nation al highway from Richmond to Colum bia down through Oxford, Durham, and dividing it there with one road go ing out byway of Chapel Hill, Pitts boro and Sanford, and the other'fol lowing the Central Highway westward to Greensboro and Charlotte has been in process for some months past, and will come to head this week. Both roads are on the map. The qdtestion that will be threshed out will be whether the Durham-Oxford route shall be immediately hard-sur faced or whether the Henderson-Ra leigh-Sanford route shall be sanction ed as the official route between the north and south, and which marked out to be followed by the ever rising tide of tourists. We predict that the hard-surfaced road will be laid through Pittsboro within 12 months. GOLDSTON ROUTE ONE NEWS. Goldston, Rt. 1, June 25. —Mr. A.
