ALL Honor to the Pioneers who settled Ma
con county more than 100 years ago.
They lived at home, practiced thrift and econ
omy and prospered. . Their example should be
and object lesson to their descendants who in
habit the county today.
It is estimated that the citizens of Macon
now lose $500,000 per year by buying farm
produce that can be grown on the farms of the
county. By proper methods of soil building
thousands of dollars now spent for commercial
fertilizers could be saved. The poultry industry
of the county should' yield an annual income of
$1,000,000 to the farmers. The same amount
should be received from beef cattle and the
dairy cows. Macon county should have 50,000
sheep grazing on its valleys and mountain sides.
Twenty thousand stands of bees will bring in
$100,000 annually. Truck crops should yield
an additional $100,000. There is good money
thoroughbred hogs. v
On the Centennial of Macon county let us
honor the memory of the Pioneers by resolving
to buy nothing outside the confines of Macon
county that can be grown at home. Let us
build up the soil until it will produce as it did
100 years ago. Let us also resolve to raise
hogs, sheep, beef and dairy cattle. If we must
live out of tin cans, let us can the produce
grown at home. By doing these things the in
come of the farmers of Macon county can be
increased approximately $3,000,000 per year.
Cravfc'rd Hems
For- Centennial
Mr. II. R Crawford, a banker of
Salem, Oregon, arrived -last week to
visit his mother, Mrs. Virginia Craw
ford, his brother, Mr. Lee Crawford
and his sister, Mrs. Frank Smith.
He will also attend the centennial of
Macon county and thus have the op
portunity of meeting his many friends
of long years ago. Mr. Crawford
left here more than thirty years ago.
His last visit to Macon county was
made in 1903.
During a conversation with a Press
reporter Mr. Crawford took occasion
to comment upon the great strides the
county has made since his last visit
here, particularly with reference to
the roads. He and Mr. Jim Porter
used to freight between Franklin
and Dillsboro, the trip each way
requiring more than a day. Now the
distance can be made in' a car in
half an hour.
CARD OF THANKS

er, the greatest bereavement we have

We want to thank you for the
beautiful floral offering, also: for the
beautiful wreath given by the Utilities
Engineering and Construction Co..

flowers and message o sympathy
from the fady with whom he was
boarding. ' ; ;

The Franklin Press,
Franklin, N. C.
Gentlemen:
The Rabun Gap-Nacoochee School
has reached the point in its efforts
where it is able to announce that on
the 15th of August, 1929, it will open'
its doors for another year of work.
At this time we expect to operate
the boarding department on a fifty
fifty division of time between school
room and work and farm and voca
tional labor.
Our idea is to make it possible
to offer high school education, inclu
ding board and room, to worthy young
people at a nominal price, and to a
limited number who have no means
whatever to offer it in exchange for
their labor. i ,
What we are after is the upbuild
ing of our mountain country through
the proper development of its most
worthy young people, giving special
preference to those who otherwise
would not have an opportunity.
I would appreciate hearing from
you at your earliest convenience and
would be grateful for whatever help
you feel in a position to give us.
Very truly yours, .
J: K. COIT.
