Wheat Sowing Slow To 1
Get Under Way.
King Route 2, Oct. 19 Rev. P.
Oliver is quite feeble this week,
his many friends will regret to
know.
We regret to learn that Mr. and
1 Mrs. Wade H. Boyles are both
on the sick list.
Miss Clemmie Boyles is also
very ill at this writing.
Mr. C. H. Lunsford went to
Virginia on business last week.
Our people are attending the
County fair at King this week
and report it good.
Mrs. C. H. Boyles is spending
a few days with her sister at
Reidsville.
The farmers are now market
ing a good deal of tobacco from
this section and report prices
good.
On account of wet weather
farmers are behind with their
grain sowing. Some oats have
been put in. We are sure that
farmers will make no mistake in
sowing lots of wheat this jear
While we don't believe there is
much money in growing wheat
to sell in this country, it is a great
saving to make our own supplies
at home.
