That the Philippine Islands is rich
n gold is now an established fact,
md to make the matter more inter
esting to the people here, Mr. H. L.
Cadwallader, of Rosman, is interest
.d in the great gold mining opera
tions of the Islands. The following
radiogram to a Chicago newspaper
?ives details, of the tremendous
wealth represented in the operations:
NEW PHILIPPINE GOLD STRIKE
REPORTED
By Walter Robb
(Special Radio to the Star-Tel
egram and Chicago Daily News)
"MANILLA, April 27.? The sec
ond large Philippine gold strike
within a month has been made by
Cadwallader Brothers, proprietors of
the Cadwallader Gibson Lumber com
pany, pioneer, marketers of Philip
pine hardwoods in the United States,
with extensive mill interests here and
a factory in Los Angeles.
"Their gold strike was made at . !i
village of Tinabaku, Calarines sur
Provinces, Island of Luzon, where
members of the family have taken
12 claims covering the mother lode
area. Within the claims are 240
acres.
"Placer workings led to the dis
covery. The gold assays very high
and a stamp mill will be erected
soon. Cadwalladers named the claims
after 12 western states.
"Another year will see modern
gold mining progress at four differ
ent points in the Philippines, three
of which are on Luzon Island, which
the capital. Manilla, is situated."
Frank D. Cadwallader, son of
Rosman's Mr. Cadwallader, is a mem

GOLF TOURNEY
Brevard's first golf tournament for
he season, scheduled for Tuesday,
vas not completed on account of
?ain. The event will be continued
intil all entries have played off, and
hen results of the tournament will
>e posted and published. Unusual in
ertst is being taken in golf ihis
'ear, due to many causes. The mem
>ers of the Brevard Country club
ire, in the main, enthusiastic golf
rs, and enjoy the game for the
famo's sake. Then there is the rec
ignition of the fact that Brevard
annot hope to amount to anything
it all as a tourist town unless the
:olf course is kept in excellent con
lition, because tourists will not
latronize any town where there is no
;olf course.
The course is in excellent shape, ;
.nd it is believed the course will
irove of greater value this season'
han ever before.

ARE MOPPING UP

active than ever, and more daring in
their continued prowling", Tuesday
night the Rang got chickens at the
home of C. &'. Sharp, Selica, and at
Flen< Glazener's home, just below
Rosman. Automobiles are used by
thieves, and this make-; capture really
hard, even the hlood hound being un
abl; to trace t.he thieves further than
the highway where the truck has beer,
entered.
Hardware stores report the salt
of much ammnuition during tin- pas;
few days, and citizens express a de
termination .to place sa-d ammuni
tion into the carcasses of these
thieves. Officers are working hard
in an effort to capture the thieves, I
but on account of the systematic
manner ir. which the gang does i:
work, the capture is hard to make.

Corn Responds to Nitrogen
How corn responds to the use of !
an application of quick'y available |
nitrogen is indicated conclusively in
a demonstration conducted on the
farm of W. D. Pass near Hayesville
in Clay county iu.-t yea:. .
to a report recently made by County
Agent John _V. Arrendale.
In the photograph above is shown
the actual corn harvested from two
measured plots one-thirteenth of an
acre in size. The corn at the left
is the actual yield of the plot which
had been fertilized with 300 po'in
of superphosphate and 75 pounds of
muriate of potash per acre. The corn
at the right is the yield from a sim
ilar sized plot that had been fertil
ized with 300 pounds of superphos
phate, 75 pounds of muriate of pot
ash and 300 pounds of nitrate of
soda per acre. Mr. Pass conducted
a five-year corn demonstration in one j
of the series arranged last year by;
tlir extension service of State Col
ic*, v cooperating with the Chilean!
Nitrate of Soda Educational Bureau.
According to Mr .Arrendale's re
port of this demonstration, the corn
fertilized with only the phosphate
and potash nroduced 3.57. bushels
per acre. ' That fertilized with the
nit rat of soda in addition to the
phosphate and potash produced 49
bushels per acre. Mr. Pass lost at
the rate of 63 cents an acre by the
first fertilization and made a profit
of $39.80 per acre in the second
where he added nitrogen to his fer
tilizer at planting and then top
dressed with the temainder of the
nitrate of soda when the corn was
about knee high. Both plots were
side by side in th<? field, reports Mr.
Arrehdale.

sister, husband and Dr. Lewis, the
Ep wortfe physician, 'accompanied her
from the Georgia town to Asheville.
The operation failed to save her,

A great throng of people gathered
at the McCall home, at_Selica, and
??t th- church and cemetery, to pay
th ir last respects to Mrs. McCall,

neighbors had felt for her in life.

loss. The children are as follows:
Mrs. Joe Tinsley, Mrs. Van Hug

AEOLIAN CONCERT
Mi
Mr. and Mrs. Crosby Adams
Captivate Brevard Music
Lovers Club
The Aeolian choir of Ashevdu s
Saturday night gave a concti u i
the auspices of the Breva. i Mit-c
Lovers' club to a large and . - .
ative audience.
Mrs. A. H. Kizer, president oi.h*
club, introduced the choir . ; their
director and accompanist, Mr ir.d
Mrs. Crosby Adams. The -boir,
dressed in simple white ro!ic-'. gave
the Greek impression thi: T treir
name implies.
Mr. Adaftis explained that tlv igh
the program was secular, th-;. w. uM
open the concert with a relit; :ous
number, since church music ir.i.re.
than any other is written ft ? a num
ber of voices and suited : ebon
singing.
Folk songs from the E: . -h .r.a
Irish dominated the program. The
Londonderry air set to the wi rds
"In Berry Vale" was the n.u.-t pop
ular and was repeated after a long
round of applause. Three tfcer
numbers were encored: "Tfc*. Foun
tain," words by Lowell and mu>ic by
Marschal-Loepke; "Will O
by Spross; and "April my April.'- by
Milligan. Each of these uvs ,,.;ht
and airy, with a theme of ; yousness
or fairy fancy.
During the evening Mt . Adams
' played two piano numbers, and when
encored, played some of her own
; compositions. These were particular
ly for the children who were in the
audience.
The effort of the choir music is
gained through careful dir.. *ing and
the harmonious accord <>? all the
| voices rather than through the v. rrk
of one or two. With the exception of
I Mrs. Learned's soprano obligate in
"April my April" there wa- no .-olo
i work done. ,
| Mr. and Mrs. Adams, who now
have their home at Mont 'eat, have
done much of their musical work in
Chicago and are known throughout
the United States. Mrs. Adams is a
composer of note and has written
books on church music and hymnol
ogy.
