Everybody is requested to arrive as near 11 o'clock as possible and bring a basket lunch. There will be games and a contest in the afternoon, and a talk by Mrs. Tate and Mrs. Young about their trip to the Short Course at Raleigh. Circulating Library. A new feature of the Home Dem onstration work is a circulating li brary, which has been loaned to the county from Raleigh for three months. In it are books on cooking, sewing, house furnishing and costume designing, all of which will be most helpful to anyone interested in these subjects. Garden Contest. The Garden Contest which is being managed by Mrs. Harrelson is arous ing much interest throughout the county. Sixty-five gardens have been entered and all are keeping records of the dates of planting and results gained. It is the aim of those en tering the garden contest to have green vegetables on the table the year around. Mrs. Harrelson visited numbers of gardens and found them all in excellent condition. Curb Market. The Curb Market held each Satur day in Rutherfordton is an important part of the Home Demonstration work. During the four Saturdays in May the market took in SSOO which is a large amount, especially for the first month and proves that the market fills a real need in the com munity. PRECIOUS METALS FOUND IN WESTERN CAROLINA Chimney Rock, June a generally admitted fact'' that " 'West ern North Carolina is rich in nat ural resources, such as water power and forest products; but few people know of the wealth in gold, silver and copper ore which abounds in rich veins running on and near the surface of the mountains in certain sections of Buncombe, Rutherford, Yancey, Madison and McDowell counties as does Andrew T. Guthrie, veteran miner, who has recently been prospecting in this section. Mr. Guthrie, who is now making headquarters in Ashevilie, a few days ago returned from a prospect ing expedition which took him into parts of five counties. He brought back numerous samples of ore which he declares are absolute proof that this section is amazingly rich in pre cious metals. North Carolina papers some time ago stated that Mr. Guthrie was born in Buncombe county in 1853, leaving his native state in early manhood for the far west. He spent 47 years mining and prospecting in different localities from the Mexican border up to the Canadian boundary line. Mr. Guthrie states that he re turned to this section about six months ago intending to stay only a short time, but finding that his native state offers better prospects for gold and s'ilver than he found in most places during his prospect ing of nearly half a century in the far west, the veteran digger is very enthusiastic in his recent finds, so much so that he goes out day after dky, paying his own expenses, back ed up only by his firm belief in the mineral wealth of this section, and usually brings back with him real specimens as proof of his statements. "I don't ask anybody to take my word for a thing I say," said Mr. Guthrie. "Right here's the stuff to prove it," he said, pointing to numer ous specimens of ore that lay on the table before him. Some of the specimens Mr. Guthrie showed were obtained from the Reems Creek sec tion, and he states that $40,000 a ton is a conservative estimate of its pos sible yield in silver. GEO. W. DOBBINS WINS HIGH HONORS AT COLLEGE Twenty-nine young men complet ed full four year courses at the tex tile school of State College and the degree of B. S. in textiles were con ferred upon them. Of these, five were in textile chemistry and dye ing, and twenty-four in textile man ufacturing. George William Dobbins, Ruther fordton, N. C., was awarded the stu dent's medal, given by the National Association of Cotton Manufactur ers to the student having the highest proficiency in his work for the four years. State Senator Mark Squires, made the presentation, outlining the purposes for which the medal was awarded and stating that this was the 18th year' it had been awarded to the textile school. It is one of the highest honoi's that can be con ferred upon a graduate of a textile school. The textile school offers three courses: Textile manufacturing, Textile chemistry and Dyeing and textile de sign, all of which cover a period of four years and lead to the degree of B. S .in textiles. A selected two year course is of fered to graduates of universities and colleges.
