Fruit-gathering is practical ly over, and what to do with the vast yield is a question with ma ny of our people. Messrs Cook Ac Carlton, the new merchants of Iloone have a nice ad in this issue. He sure and look it up. Miss Jennie Coffey, of P.oone, and Mr. and Mre. D. F. .Mast, of Valle Ctucis, are off for the State Fair at Raleigh tliis week. Mrs. II. C. Rivers is rather in disposed this week, and Mr. M. I Critcher is attending to her duties in the post office. This paper has been gotten up under most trying conditions and we hoie its short comings will be overlooked bv our rend ers. The campaign in the county from all reports, seems to be pro gressing nicely; no bitterness ap pearing on the hustings. Miss Salina Wheeling, a middle-aged maiden lady, died of fe ver at her home in Flk township on Tuesday morning, after an illness of several weeks. Mr. L. W.

Right on the crest of t h e Rich Mountain Mr. A. 7 Miller planted this year one quart of seed corn on of an acre of land, and as a result of his labors he shucked and measured therefrom 28 bushels of corn. This a won derful vield for anv land, much less that at such great altitude. The paint brush is still get ting in its work of beauty in Fast Rooue. The pretty residence of Mr. John Lew is has been given its finishing touches and the res idence of Dr. Bingham is now un dergoing the great change that a good painter can make on a good building with a three-coat job. Friend Job W. Blair of Vilas, passi d tlr 'i;li liVitii yestenliiy en route to Caldwell with "Rig Ben," the prize winning black stallion at a number of county fairs, and owihmIJvv Mr. Walter Hayes.. Mr. Blair is negotiating a trade with a joint stock com pany in Caldwell for the sale of "Ben," and if they get him they will own the best horse of his kind that Watauga can furnish.

We hope his stay among former friends in Watauga may be most pleasant. We are sorry to make the statement, but evidently some of our merchants in Watauga are flagrantly violating the law per taining to the sale of cigarettes to boys under 18 years of age. It is a common sight in Boone to see boye of tender years, ma ny of them in school, pulling a way at eigaretes the same as if then was no law on the statutes for their protection against the us- of the obnoxious little "cof fin tacks.' The law strictly for bids their sale to any boy under 1 N years of agv, and those who sell them should bear this in mind, when handing them out to the bo vs. Beaver Dam Doings.
