Rutherfordton, Feb. 9. —The Don caster Collar and Shi.rt Company, manufacturers of high grade shirts and collars, will begin operation of their new plant here within a few days. The new enterprise, promoted largely by local capital, will be lo cated on Main street here. The plac ing of machinery began last week, and it is expected that the company will begin operations within a few r days. The factory will be located on South Main street in the building formerly occupied by Andrew Har- Irill's store. The main working room 'will be down stairs in the Harriil J o'jilding. Fourteen feet of this build ing is being extended about twenty feet now to the rear, which will make the main working room 90 feet long, inside. A small elevatoi" jwill be used' to transport goods to i the main store room up stairs. The j elevator will be in the Harriil store ! building facing Main street. The I second story of the two buildings has been converted into one large room. A high grade of shirts will be made with collars to match and shirts will be made without collars. The trade mark, which has be?n registered will be "Fashionset." The plant is being promoted by both local and outside men. Mr. E. C. Marshall, President of the Southern Public Utilities Co. of Charlotte, it is understood, is a sub stantial and personal stockholder. Zimmerman Superintendent. Mr. C. J. Zimmerman, of New York City, a native Tar Heel, will be superintendent. Mr. Zimmerman has had fifteen years of successful experience in this line in New Yoik City where style and quality is stressed. Authorized Capital SIOO,OOO. The company is being incorporat led under the laws of North Caro lina as the Doncaster Collar and | 'Shirt Co., with an authorized capi-j THE FOREST CITY (N. C.) COURIER tal of $100,000; $75,000 common stock and $25,000 preferred stock. The plan of selling the output is well organized. One large chain store has already ordered 100 doz en shirts. This concern buys from 20,000 to 30,000 dozen shirts an nually. The goods made here will be manufactured from a high grade broadcloth and fancy shirting. The plant will not start at. full capacity at present, due to lack of capital. Local merchants and oth er business men are urged to help i make the factory a "go." Around j 40 girls and women will likely be employed at first, while it is hoped ,to enlarge to around 75 to 80 girls and women, mostly soon. The plant will be a permanent fixture in ' Rutherfordton, if it is a business 'success, and there is every reason ■to believe that it will be. The payroll will be around SSOO to S6OO jper week at first and it is hoped to :soon make it around SI,OOO per jweek or $50,000 per year. Lack of j apital is the_ only reason that it j will not be SI,OOO per week at j first. When the plant gets well under way, it will manufacture 50 dozen hirts weekly and will use only lectric sewing machines. The promoter, Mr. S. B. Tanner, as already received around 45 ap plications for work, thirty of whom have had experience on power sew- ng machines. It haS been estimated that $8,000,000 worth of shirts are ought annually in North Carolina ,-hile around $500,000 are made in his state. FODR SSOK Forsyth and Stokes and Pen der and New Hanover Folk Discuss Proposed Mergers. Raleigh, Feb. 3. —County consoli dation proposals had been advanced Tuesday in two widely separated sections of the State. A Stokes county delegation, head ed by Jacob F. Fulton, chaiiman of the board of commissioners, ap peared Monday before the Forsyth county board of commissioners to request that proposed consolidation of Stokes and Forsyth counties be taken under advisement. James G. Hanes, chairman of the Forsyth board, suggested that fi nancial and other details involved be published in order that the people of the counties might decide on the proposal. At Wilmington, a Pender county delegation requested the New Han over county board to consider merger of these two counties. The New Hanover commissioners declin ed to discuss the question at the present time. YOUTH AND AGE. "What this town needs," we fre quently hear, " is more young- blood in its various community activities. The old stagers who have made their way are not so interested in seeing the town boom as the younger folks." There is much truth in this, but of course we must recognize the need and value of older heads in effort to promote the town's busi ness aild industrial interests. For real progress in Forest City we need the co-operation of both old and young. For a community is not essentially different from a business, and how successfully a combination of youth ful enthusiasm and mature judgment carry the affairs of an organization forward to success. Youth is the time of ideas, enter prise, and enthusiasm. It is impa tient of delay and ever ready to plunge ahead in search of new fields of activity. Age is the time of judgment, cau tion, and analysis. It "is hesitant a bout rushing into error. It wishes to take time to consider. Logically the best course is some where midway between these two points of view. A community or business made up entirely of young men would be continually plunging into costly errors, making a consid erable furor but accomplishing lit- tle. A community or business hand led entirely by old men would be continuously planning and Consid ering but getting little started. Hence it becomes evident that a community prospers and progresses most when we have both old and young men co-operating for the interests of the town. MR. J. N. COLE IS TYPICAL "LIVE AT HOME" FARMER Harris, R-1, Man Making ~P-endid Success of Farm ing Business— Excellent Record Last Year. J. N. Cole, of Karris R-l, of Ruth- eifoid county, is a most successful farmer, according to F. E. Patton, county agent. Mr. Cole "makes his living on the farm and also produces good money crops," according to Mr. Patton. Mr. Cole is a "Live-at-Home" farmer, a hustler. Despite the fact that last year., due to the drought, his yields were not up to average years, he had such a diversification of crops on his farm that he pro duced enough food and feed for his family and his livestock and also had a surplus to sell. His money crop, cotton, was "velvet" to this farmer. Back in 1913, when Mr. Cole bought his farm, it was all in woods. Since then he has cleared much of the 87 acres and has built all of his farm buildings. He has a nine-room house, built and painted by himself, and a nicely planned country home, with water and lights, one of the prettiest lawns in any county of the state, made beautiful by the group ing; of maple trees and flower plots Lon a verdant stretch of blue grass. Last year, in spite of dry hot weather, he produced 14 bales of cotton on 16 acres; 300 bushels of corn on 12 acres; 70 bushels .ox sweet potatoes on one-half acre; 30 gallons of molasses on one-quarter acre; 700 pounds of meat; 10 bush els of cowpeas; six tons of hay on two acres; 22 bushels of wheat on 2 acres; 45 bushels of oats on three acres; and he had one acre in gar den produce, one-half acre in water melons, one-half acre in cantaloupes and one acre in orchard trees. He canned 500 cans of vegetables and fruits. Mr. Cole keeps three cows and has a flock of chickens never below 40 hens. He won first prize on a "Live at-Home" exhibit booth at the Ruth erford County Fair last fall; and he wcji first prize for the best acre of corn last fall, with a yield of 68 bushels, despite the fact that a lack of rain cut his production per acre from a possible 100 bushels. His pro-, duction of seed cotton on four acres was 5,200 pounds or 1,300 pounds j of seed cotton to the acre and bet-j ter than 400 pounds of lint cotton to the' acre. This was one of the best records made in the county in 1930. ' Mr. Cole has a family of eight children. Two have finished college and two others will finsh this spring. He is an ardent believer in giving, the coming generation the best edu cation possible and a better start in life than preceeding generations have had. In his county, he is well known and considered one of the best citizens in Rutherford.
