Squires New Manager
Of Farm Federation
New Head Takes dp Reins
and Begins Active
Campaign.
P. c. Squires, who wdq , recently
appointed by the directors of ? the
Polk County Farmers Federation as
manager of that concern following
the resignation of H. H. Edwards,
former manager, arrived this week
to assume his duties.
Mr. Squires has been connected
with similar organizations in var
ious parts of this country and comes
t0 Tryon highly recommended.
Following is a letter written by
Mr. Squires to the farmers of the
county:
Your President and Board of Direc
tors have elected me to the posi
tion as manager of your local Fed
eration. and in this ray first circular
letter to members I wish to extend
greeting.
The short time I have been in your
county, meeting members in the var
ious districts give me assurance that
you will co-operate heartily1 with
your President, board of directors
and manager in their efforts to im
prove conditions for the farmers of
Polk County.
I am especially pleased to note
the progressive spirit shown by
president and directors, v and if I
mention your energetic County
Agent last it does not imply that J.
R. Sams is least in the group of
leaders who are striving for the ad
? vancement of the Federation.
I cannot forbear at his point to
quote from a letter received from
Mr. Sains, as follows. "I believe that
you and I working like yoke mates
can standardize cfops and our far
mers to grade and pack, and buil^
up a market. We will have to be
gin at the bottom, and build surelv
and safely." 3
Mr. Sams and the writer are go
ing to work together in ?ur -efforts
to help the Polk County farmers,
but we will accomplish very -little
unless we have the co-operation of
those we are trying to help.
Down at the state capital are a
group of men who are working faith- 1
fully and earnestly for the advance
ment of the co-operative movement
in North Carolina ? and one of this
group is Gorrell Shumaker of the
Division of Markets a&d Rural Or

Spartans Plunge Off
Pacolet Road Sunday
Crashing down a thirty foqt en
bankment near the bridge at Melrose
on the Pacolet road, an automobile
driven by Dr. M. A. Drummond of
Spartanburg, containing several
other Spartanburg people made
three complete turns berore coming
to a stop in the river beneath, last
Sunday afternoon.
Those in the car with Dr. Drum
mond were, Mrs. Drummond, wife of
the driver, David Drummond, aged
12, Mr. and Mrs. Brian Liles and
their ten months old baby, Helen.
None of the occupants were serious
ly injured, in "fepite of the long drop
and the badly wrecked condition of
the touring car. Dr. Drummond
sustained a fractured arm. Others
inthe accident suffered bruises tnd
lacerations. The injured people
were brought to Tryon in passing
cars.
According to Dr. Drummond, who
was driving the car, he just crossed
the bridge over Pacolet river when
he saw some acquaintances from
Greer oil the side of the road. Just
then, hq said, he thought he heard
a horn blow and he turned and look
ed backward. As he turned his
head, Mr. Liles called "Look out",
and the wheels went over the side of
the thirty foot embankment, bringing
the car with them. The car turned
over three times before it came to
rest. A number of men, standing
nearby, rushed to the scene and
picked the injured people up. Helen,
the baby, was under the car and was
rescured when a door was opened.

NOTICE
On Wednesday October 10th at
two o'clock P. M. at Columbus, N.
C. the Board of Education will let the
contract for a two room school house
to be built in the Cox Colored^ school
district. Plans and specifications for
this building can be seen at the office
of County Supt., Schools, Columbus,

Education.
County School Board
In Regular Session
The Board of Education held its
regular meeting at the Polk County
Bank 'and Trust Company, Columbus,
Monday Oct 1. The, following busi
! neflfe was Considered and disposed of
on motion:
That the Sunny View School begin
I its fall session October 29th instead
of Oct. 2nd. This delay caused by
need for the service of the children
on the farm.
That the bids for the contract for
ithe heating plants in the three new
schools in the county be held over
unitl Thursday Oct. 4th "on account
of the absence of the architect, F. B.
i Simpson.
That all bids for driving school
[buses be rejected, and that all par
ities interested in securing this posi
tion for this school year see Supt.
Cobb in person.
i That the special cases of second
grade teachers referred to the
[Board of Education be not approved.
I That the Mill Spring Teacherage,
now being repaired, be painted an
[appropriate color for this building.
A number of interested school men
[appeared before the board in be
!half of their schools, which is a good
sign for better schools in the coun
ty.
chased without delay.
The lettuce crop requires rich soil
with plenty of humus, and will well
repay liberal manuring and thorough
cultivation. As the lettuce crop is
marketed during the spring months
the proceeds of this crop are in the
hands of the farmer at a time when
it is especially appreciated, and
another crop of truck or corn may be
grown on the same land following
the lettuce. ?
When discussing the lettuce crop
we should at the sametime make our
plans for next season early Irish po
tatoes planting if this crop is to be
included in our list of truck crops ?
and the last government report as to
acreage and condition of the nations
potato crop leads me to believe it
would be wise to plant early cobbler
potatoes. Se'ed potatoes should be
purchased this fall from hill selected
crops to insure getting vigorous and
good cropping seed and also as a
matter of conomy.
Plans for other crops may be
made later but the Iceberg and early
potatoes proposition should be dis
cussed and acted upon early in Oct
I want to take this occasion to in
troduce Mr. Vance Rich who will be
my assistant and co-worker in the
warehouse. The cordial greeting
you will receive from this young
man when you visit the warehouse
will I am sure be the beginning of a
friendship that will be enduring.
Obliging and ever willing, you will
find it a pleasure to deal with him,
and it will be a pleasure to him to
serve you. In conclusion, may I
again express the wish that in work
ing together we may be as one fam
ily in our earnest desire to help one
another and so fulfil one of the
great fundamental principles of co
operative endeavor.

HOLD FIRST FESTIVAL
REHEARSAL OCTOBER 23
Director Frederick W. Wodell An
nounces Date For First
Chorus Meeting
Director Frederick W. Wodell an
nounces that the Music Festival
Chorus for 1924 will hold its first re
hearsal on Tuesday evening, October
23, at 8 o'clock sharp, dismissing
promptly at 9:30. It is desired that
every singer who took part in last
season's festival shall again join the
chorus.
In order to accomodate new mem
bers, Mr. Wodell will be at his studio
in the Converse College Music build
ing Tuesday evening, October 9, 16,
and 23, from 7 to 8 o'clock, when he
will be very glad to meet vocalists,
and assign them to a part. .
This season the opera will be the
world-wide favorite "11 Trovatore,"
by Verdi. The first night of the
festival will be called "Choral" in
stead of "Oratoria" night, as the pro
gram will include works of varied
charactcr, in addition to the well
known and liked "Stabat Mater" by
Rossini.

Apt Comparison.

Heat From Kerosene and Coal.
It has been pointed out that kerosene
contains a greater quantity of heating
energy than coal when the comparison
Ts made upon the basis of weight. One
pound of kerosene contains about 19,
000 heat units, whereas one pound of
high-grade coal shows about 15,000.
The cost of the various fuels for heat
ing purposes depends largely upon the '
relative supply.

Odd Superstitions.
A cnrious custom is practiced In
Norway, where those in search of a
4rowned body row to and fro with a
cock in the boat, fully expecting that
the bird will crow when the boat j
reaches the spot where the corpse lies.
In Persia the crowing of a cock is the
sign of some event affecting the family,
and the master of the- house hastens
to feel the bird's feet. If they are cold
it is a premonition of death, but If they
are warm the sign is propitious, and ;
the master rejoices in coming good
fortune. , ii
Baptists of County
Meet at Mill Spring
By Esther Gibbs
Last Saturday and Sunday, Bap
tists of Polk County, regardless of
associational affiliation, met at the
Baptist Church. The attendance
Saturday was small but the meeting
on the whole was good. Reports
from the organizations of different
churches were made.
Rev. A. J. Justice was present on
Saturday. The B. Y. P. U. and W.
M. U originated during his visit to
our church last Spring By his help
we secured our Pastor of whom we
are proud. Through his instruction
and help the Baptists made many of
repairs and additions to their
church. In the general discussion
regarding church work, he made
many valuable comments.
On Sunday the crowd increased
considerably. Nine Baptist
Churches in POlk County were re
presented. After Sunday School
Rev. Felmet of Hickory Grove dis
cussed the Biblical Recorder and its
use. "County Agent Sams then gave
an insight to some ways of better
Sunday School equipment. Rev. M.
C. Lunsford, Pastor of Saluda Bap
tist' Church preached the Associa
tion Sermon. ?
After the dinner, served in picni?
style, Dr. T. L. Justice spoke on the
following subject in an instructive
manner/'Great World Program for
Kingdom Work; Relation of the 75
Million Campaign to it".
A committee appointed on Satur
day to decide the place- for next
meeting, and the preacher to give in
troductory sermon, decided to meet
with the Columbus Baptist Church
with Dr. Justice to preach the ser
mon, the meeting to be held the fifth
Saturday and Sunday in December.
A large delegation from each church
in Polk County is strongly urged, on
Saturday this question will be dis
cussed and we hope, solved. "What
can be done to better the condition
of our Churches of Polk County?" . .

Simplicity. '
The poet must put far from him the
amazing \rord, the learned allusion,
the facial invention, the clever twist
of thought, for, all these things will
blur his poem and distract his reader.
He must net overcrowd his lines with
figures of speech, because, piling these
one upon another, he defeats his own
purpose. . . . The poet should try
to give his poem the quiet swiftness ot
, flame, so that the reader shall feel
and not think while he~ is reading.
But the thinking will come afterwards.

Heat Reddens Fruit
What makes cherries r?d, light or
heat? The question was recently dis
cussed by the French Academy ' ot
Sciences In Paris, and the answer waa
heat. Some cherries, exposed to the
light, remained as colorless as at first
Others, put into a dark ov^n, become
beautifully red. Which only shows us
that light alone, 4rtthout heat cannot
ripen fruit, but that beat, without
light can. Many of us would have
thought otherwise.
B. Of T. Approves Bond
. Issue For Water Works
Town Council to Act On En
gineers Report.
Tryon's water supply, relating to
both present and future condition
was the subject of discussion at a
special meeting of the Board of
Trade held Wednesday night in Mis
sildine Hall.
The meeting was called at the re
quest of Dr. William Gray, following
an apparent water shortage under
which the citizens of Tryon have
been suffering during tho past ten
days.
During the past summer every ef
fort was made by the town commis
sion to augment the present water
supply. The entire water system
was carefully inspected by mem
bers of the commission, and a week
ly inspection of the Intakes and
resevoir was ipade by Mayor W. S.
Green. Up to the past two weeks
there seemed,* according to the
Mayor to be an adequate supply and
no danger of the present shortage
was felt by any of the town officials.
Almost overnight the water sup
ply decreased 'to such an extent that
it was thought there must be a break
in one of the intake mains. Sub
sequent inspection discovered the
fact that one of the small basins on
the water shed was in need of re
pair from damage near the base.
At the meeting Wednesday night
this was explained by Mayor Green
as well as the meter policy. Follow
ing considerable discussion on the
part of various members who re
lated personal experiences, the
board as a group endorsed the find
ings of Engineer Wright of Char
lotte who was employed by the town
last Spring to inspect the water
shed and supply and make written
report In this report, Mr. Wright
suggested the replacing of the pre
sent 4 inch intake with a 6 inch pipe
and the additional tapping of a third
branch on the water shed with a. 4
inch main. He further suggested
meters for the town. It is thought
that an expenditure of approximate
ly $20,000 win cover all necessary
changes and additions to the present
works to give a water supply of suf
ficient quantity to supply a town of
twice Tryon's present population
Members of the town commission
stated that they wanted the consen
sus of opinion of the , citizens before
placing any further bonded indebt
edness on the town. The board will
meet at once to discuss the question
and some definite action to relieve
the situation is expected soon.

CHESTNUT BLICiHT SPREAD*
ING IN SOUTH
The chestnut blight, a destructive
fungous disease, has been steadily
spreading southward as well as
northward and westward since Its in
troduction into this country from
Asia. The Bureau of Plant industry,
United States Department of Agri
culture, has given most exhaustive
study to the question of control of
the disease, but its character is such
that all efforts to develop any way of
stopping its spread in forests have
without avail.
The main area of infection has
now reached North Carolina on the
east slope of the Blue Ridge Moon
tains. Th? disease has been spread
ing westward across the mountains
much slower than on the east slope
of the Blue Ridge.
A new infected area was recently
found covering parts of Greenville
County, S. C., and Henderson and
Polk Counties, N. C. This large in
fection of unknown duration is many
miles ahead of the main line of ad
vance of the disease. This advance
lntection is rapidly spreading and
the indications are that the chestnut
growth of the southern part of North
Carolina, northern Georgia, and the
southeastern part of Tennessee will
be killed sooner than previously es
timated.
Owners of chestnut growth in these
regions should make plans in ad
vance for the utilization of their
trees. If the stand is growing rap
idly and increasing in value, it may
not be advisable to cut the trees un
til hey become lnfeced. In other
cases where the area to be utilized
is too large to cut over quickly,' it
will probably pay to start cutting be
fore the blight beccomes prevalent
It is not advisable to allow exten
sive stands of trees suitable fer tele
graph poles and lumber production
to be killed by the blight and deteri
orate until they can be utilized only
for extract wood. The blight itself
doSs not weaken or injure the wood,
but saprot and checking start soon
after the death of the tree.
