Quarts of whiskey for every gallon?

gel of false teeth. v
In other words they don't give four
full quarts to the gallon not by a jug
full! A real public spirit, a spirit of
fair play should prompt , the spending
in Hendersonville of money made in
Hendersonville. A very good motto
for the Greater Hendersonville club
r.nd for the city at large to adopt
would be: -""We patronize those who
patronize us."
For it's the Hendersonville business
ran who is called upon to contribute
tc every public enterprise, to every
church subscription, toevery charity.
He's right here on Main street handy.
The mail order house is some dis
tance off. Nine-tenths of the business
end professiona men of this city are
members of the Greater Henderson
ville club an organization working
ALL the time for the benefit of ALL
the town and county. They and their
n.oney make possible this organiza
tion. They are the nien who event
ually pay possibly one-half the city
taxes and who support liberally every
enterprise for the public weal from' a
hospital to a chicken show. No mat

Erroneous Report Circulated
His Death and Burial and Pnlu
Hshed in Hustler-Denioerafc.
Ever and anon newspapers uninten
tionally print big lies to the injury S
themselves' and persons and thinga
concerned for the lack of time to veri
fy reports, and last week was not aa
exception with the Hustler-Democrat
vwhen it .gave an 'account of the u
ledged sudden death from heart failure
of J. L.Lyda of Edneyville. TnV -e-port
was current and insistent arouna
the city until there was no question,
as to the death of "Jake" Lyda of Ed
neyville. . Iiiform'ation has been received to the
eft'eet-hat Mr. Lyda is living, but that
Jake Laughter died suddenly in Ed
neyville. The Hustler-Democr.-t ex
ceedingly regrets the erroneous le
port, but took the informant who gave
outthe reported death by calling ia
person at the office, in the best al
faith. She gave the paper full infor
mation as to who would conduct tie
funeral services and the place of bu
rial and said that she was well ac
quainted with the Lyda family and
that she had received the news ottha
death of Mr. Lyda by telephone, hence
the subjection of the paper to the eF
ror, for which we apologize to Mr.
Lyda and, all others concerned.

TEACHING POULTRY BREEDERS.
3Iissouri Sets Good Example for Ponl-
try Raisers in Other States.
MissoJHl has set a splendid example
"for all other states to follow in the
matter of poultry education work.
During a period of two weeks in Sep
tember the Missouri Poultry Exposi
tion station established a record for
activity by conducting niati poultry
field meetings, each in a difffr-rit sec
tion of the state, which tie aggregate
attendance reached5 fully 20,000.
Each meeting was held . in conjunts
tlpn with the local . com aerciaL clol
and .the -local poultry'': as''CiS!t5oa; H
each .town..' V In this way" th'rpeopK :.
were made o feel that the success of
their field meeting devolved very;
largely upon them, and to this feeling
of responsibility much of the ;scces3.
was, really due. For several -weeks
before the meetings a thorough aii
vertising campaign was carried on
with the aid of local papers, posters,
and store windows..
One day poultry shows were helfl,
and other features were band concerts
and big picnic dinners that helped. ioi'
bring the crowd together early. Th
state Poultry Board offered casii
prizes for the best and -second bes$
pens of Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes
and Rhode Island Reds hatched in 1913
! and for best pen in Mediterraneon,
English and Asiatic classes. Birds
thus shown were used each day to il
lustrate a lecture on "Selecting Birds
for Breeding Purposes." A very
creditable showing was made at eaci
town, and many people who had ras
ed scrubs, after looking over the poul
try show and listening to the lectures,
went away determined to get starteil i
with pure breds at the earliest possi
ble moment. -
Perhaps the most attractive feature
of all was the reel of poultr moving
pictures shown every evening. Th
use of those pictures marked the be
ginning pf a new epoch in' poultry
educational work.
Some of the most prominent poultry
officials in the country were amon
the lectures. '
FAST PERISHING RACE.
Plans have been made by the "Pro
testant churches of Australia for the
evangelization of all aborigines of that
territory. Like North America, the
continent of Australia is both a great
heme missionary field and is the home
base for many foreign missionary so
cieties. The churches of Australia are
especially active in the surrounding
islands, and some of them carry the
gospel to 'China, India and Korei.
The whole aboriginal problem has
been recently considered from a na
tional standpoint by the Protestant
churches of Australia. The entire
territory inhabited by the aborigines
tas been apportioned for missionary .
work to the various denominations.
Our denomination is endeavoring to
establish a station on Warrington is
land in the- Gulf of Carpentaria, and
near Broome in the i.Ci.'thwest.
Western Australia pi'ouu'cc-t: inor
gold than any American state, senfls
rhore pearls to Europe" than any other
i country except Ceylon and is "said to
have, the richest belt of hardwoad
timber in the world. . -
