JACKSON SPRINGS I I : it nl: The community chib will hold its monthly meeting and picnic at Cur rie’s Bridge on Tuesday evening, August 9th. A program will be carried out and supper or lunch will be served. The Farmers’ Union that died here several years ago, came to life again Saturday evening in the auditorium in the high school building on the Troy road. A few years ago the meetings were held in a small school house on the Rockingham road. Several old members were present for the meeting. This will be a live union. Officers elected were: W. A. Clark, president; F. R. Thomas, vice- president; J. F. Patterson, secretary and treasurer and J. C. Styers, chap lain. This is not known as a cotton sec tion, but one passing through here sometimes would think this was a cotton country. Sixty-four bales were sold here last week. The Norfolk Southern railroad is too busy hauiing peaches to handle cotton, so some of it is on cotton platforms and around the depot. R. A. Derby is the largest shipper of peaches from this point. He shipped several cars a day last week. That means several thousand dollars a day from this busy farmer’s young or chard. R. A. Derby and other farmers do not feed steers during the winter months for a profit, but to improve their farms and save fertilizer bills. A movement will be started among the farmers here soon to buy some young dairy cattle, and eventually we will have a creamery for all the profit would be eaten up by the railroads hauling the cream a distance. A co-operative delivery route will mean lots to the farmers, for it will enable the farmers to have sale for their cream, chickens, eggs and surplus vegetables. It will be bringing money to the farm each month in the year. Local markets are as good as could be expected, but sometimes they can not find markets for their customer’s products in the summer. A central office is needed here, and the farmers and business men that do not have telephones need them. It is hoped we will have a good tele phone system here soon. All the teachers have been secured with the exception of one high school teacher and one music teacher Miss Thelma Ellis, the efficient music teach er here last year, is spending some time here, but will not return this fall. C. E. Herndon, who has been with the Jackson Springs Hardware Co. for several months, has gone to his home at Ellerbe. J. T. Ellis, who has been in the hardware business here for several years, is giving his full time to his business after resigning as cashier of the Bank of Jackson Springs. Born to Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Currie, a daughter, Thursday, July 21st. Rev. R. G. Matheson has returned from Montreat where he has been attending conference. Joe Pleasants and two children, of Lexington, were visiting Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Ellis last week. They attended the reunion of the Pleasants family at Aberdeen, of which there were four generations present. The West End baseball team had a, bad week and lost three out of four games played. All were interest ing but one, and it was too one-sidied. Hamlet defeated them 3 to 2, High Falls 1 to 0 and Carthage 5 to 4j and the only game they won was a 9 to 1 defeat to High Falls in the double header. It was hard luck, but they will probably come back strong again this week. Their only satisfied de feat was with, High Falls in the 10-inning battle, with High Falls putting the lone tally over on a hit followed by errors. Ike Farlow is at home from Camp Dix, N. J., with his discharge. The girl who rouges her knees to make ’em pink, should recall that mother used to get them that way scrubbing the kitchen oilcloth.—Har risburg Telegraph.
