A TUCKASEEGEE FARMER'S
PLAN TO KEEP ONE ETON
DRED PUREBRED HENS
A certain fanner and, his wife up
the river read a story about poultry
in the Progressive Farmer early last
spring and decided they would start
wiih some purebred baby chicks .and
build up a nice, farm flock of one
hundred hens. The husband came,to
town in late January and talked with
Roy Allison about poultry, and was
tiil ub< re convinced that a hundred
hens wo Id pay well on his farm. Mr.
Aliisoji" ::>id this certain man i? he
was gi-: ; to buy Barred Rock or
Rhode Island Red chickens he should i
send cif his order in early, February'
for the chickens to be hatched and j

v'ii. i! the order was sent off ncujf of
V' ii-i'eii-nes could fill the order.for
these chicks before May 1st. This
n.r was inl'cnned that his. order
vis too late for chieks bought in
May rarely made good winter layers,
:nd his best and safest plan would
be to wait until next spring and put
a the order on time as stated. And
to be certain not to get over three
hundred chickens the first year
Next spring is here now for this
man and many others interested in
poultry. Your County Farm Agent is
ready to give every farmer persopal
help with starting pwirberd -dEfc!::
this spring.
Get your order for baby chicks in

and get your brooder now and sa>

chicks at less cost than any indivi
dual can buy.

WHAT HAS BECOME OF
THE HOME ORCHARD?
When the middle aged man of to
day was in his early teens most every
farm of any size had one or two acres
.some where near the farmstead en
closed with a high rail fence, Within
this enclosure was safeguarded and
cultivated with pride the Home
Orchard. The good farmers took
special pride in arranging their or
chard, keeping it clean, and having
the varieties of apples, peaches, and
grapes that would furnish the family
a supply of fruit the year round and
some to spare for every visiting
neighbor.
The homo orchard was not only a
hixury but one of the main food sup
plies that enabled our fathers and
mothers to make a more independent
living on the farm than we am
making today. A one acre home or
chard, will pay well on the farm by
cutting down the grocery bill and ad
ding to the health of every member
in the family.
County Farm Agent C. W. Til sou
is very anxious to help at least ten
farmers in various communities of
the couuty plan and set out home
orchards. In developing these ten
home orchards the farm agent will
help the owner to demonstrate the
best orchard management to th? farm
ers of that community.
a
CLUB HOUSE DES
TROYED BY FIRE
Marion, N. C.?Loss of approx
imately $25,000 was sustained lato
last Monday night when the Marion
Lake club house, handsome, two-story
structure, burned to the ground.
No one wfls about the building at
the time, it was stated, and when it
was reached there was no hope of
saving either the club house or the
contents. The keeper, whose home is
some distance from the place, found
the structure a mass of flames when
he arrived, and news of the fire did
( 4
not reach many of the club members
until the next day.
I^lans will b^qade quickly for re
building ifl"ttmPtSr the busy summer
season, it was stated by interested
parties. Insurance is said to amount
to $15,000.
The club house, built over the laku
belonging to the club, was a two
story frame structure, containing si*
large bed rooms, lobby, kitchen and
dining room. Included in the destroy
ed property were fourteen beds, a
piano, kitchen, and dining 'room
and lounge room, furniture and other
fixtures.
The clubhouse was the gathering
place of Marion society life, and bed
been the sccnc of many elaborate en
tertainments. The property was own
ed by about fifty Marion stockholders
The blaze is thought to have start
ed from the funAce, in which a small
fire had been lew burning.
"NO EXTENSION FOR FIL
ING INFORMATION RETURNS"
? Heretofore taxpayers bave beeri
urged to file their income tax returns
early. The filing of returns this ye:./
is delayed, pending the enactment oi"
the new revenue act now before the
Senate, which ,as it passed the House,
contains changes in regard to rates
and other features. However, thero
is nothing to prevent a taxpayer at
this time from closing his books and
computing his net income. Such com
putations will not be affected by any
provision of the new act. The ac
tual preparation of the return itself,
after the computation, requires, in a
majority of cases, but a few min
utes. Therefore, it is advised that all
figures and data be assembled, land
ing receipt of blanks by taxpayers.
When released, blanks will be sent
