RECORD FOR YEAR 1924
For the past two months Count\
Agent Tiison has been writing up
some of the results obtained here and
there over the county by beginners
? dairymen on a very small scale. His
' K purpose in this i sto show^tfic peopU

: jim asking you now to considi
" viuit Jackson County 's one and onli.
nal dairyman did last year. '
lu March 1921 he started with j.
cows. Mr. Moody milked at th'
Moody Dairy last year, 1924 an ave
h:tV' of 20 to 22 cows. His inconu
\frjm sales were as follows:
Sweet milk $0809.3^
\ j iiuttermilk ..? jfll 445.4.
iUittor 1 180.81
Total from cows $7,435.7(
From a iloek of a little more thai
100 hens Mrs. Moody sold eggs am
, j))ultry to the extent of $394.5i
mkking the total gross income froii
the"cows and chickens $7,830.26 or :
grass income of $652.50 per month.
Ut course the cost of feeding tlu
'cows. the interest on the money in
'?abseil ill the barn, truck, tows am
other (Liiry equipment arc to be de
ducted before we determine who
Mr. Moody and his family have re
ccivcd for their time a ; dariy farm
crs last year. '?
At any rate we can readily se;
that their farm has had a might}
good chance of paying its operators :
fair profit for the 365 days put , ii
during the year 1924.
The fact that we know that th
operators of the Moody Dairy ban.
put in every one of 365 days wit I
the cows and chickens while tin
average Jackson County tanner pu
in less than one third o fthe 365 day
ov'.ung with less profitable cas!
cropi makes laigely the differenc
?a' llie gross fann income of tli
Moody Dairy Fann and the average
Jackson County farmer.
Mr. Moody has an up-to-date dair\
barn and dairy that are wel
kept. The people who get milk froi:
the Moody Dairy are getting a goo(
product and value received for al
tjiey are paying for the milk am
butter delivered to them. These year
?t faithful service furnishing a goo<
product Mr. Moody has bfuilt up :
retail milk trade of satisfied cu<
i rs. The fanners of Jacksoi
will have open to them no.
jylarch a wholesale cream trade un
equaled anywhere in the Souts, an
a good ereftni trade with feeding tin
skiin milk to gopd poultry and hog
will pay just as well according tr
i: bor and investment as Mr. Moody
tvhole milk trade.

HENDERSON SEES 'FUTURE
FOR OUR COUNTY
Abbeville Citizen, Oct. 18.?The
Hendersonvill^ News is emphatically
in favor of good roads?the best of
good rdads for that matter?h(at it
sees a danger to its community in
good roads elsewhere unless Hender
?n County goes actively good-road
building. / ' - f
"Henderson County hasn't time
to stop and pat herself on the back
for anything she has done in the way
of roadbuilding. She must keep mov
ing to pccupy her strategic position
on the road map" says The News. It
hangs out a danger sign for Hender
sonvillc?but it is no "Stop, look and
listen" warning.
On the contrary it is; a full-speed
ahead order The News gives. It looks
:broad and sees signs and int?:rprccs
.hem rightly. Highway No. 10 it sees
as an important highway calculated
Iq divert travel from the South
through Murphy and the up and com
ing towns between there and Aslic
ville?keen now for tourist trade.
With this highway hard-surfaced it
will draw travel front the Greenville
lfendesronvillc road unless the short
link of the State line be paved by
Henderson County. j
Travel from Charlotte now conies
to all Western North Carolina by way
of Hendcrsonville, but The News
foresees that with 'the paving of the
Charlotte-Asheville highway No. 2h
iiirough Hickory Nut Gap, "trave.
will keep on the straight, paved ron<:
rather than take a turn over an un
staved road at Bat Cave bridge.'"
Therefore it is for Henderson Coun
ty to pave the Hcndersonville-Bat
Cave stretch.
"If Henderson County sits still
and folds her hands pa\ed roads will
run rings all around her," warns
The News. "Wo must build roads
rapidly or suffer the loss of our ad
vantageous position." %
