These people were Mr. and Mrs. W. B.

They are now residents of Clifton, New Jersey, and are frequently go ing south but this is the first time it has been convenient to visit here. Mr. Wilds told people here Satur day that for a long time he had wanted to visit this place and while here he photographed the churches, different business buildings and sev eral homes. He intends to send these pictures to his parents in the Macclesfield across the water. He asked about the history of this little town and was given information that Mr. Henry Clark Bridgers nam ed this town after a trip to Europe and that he named it after a town in England which no doubt is the same town Mr. Wilds was bora in.

I | Pa* lOUr II ? 1m Farmers Urged To Raise Own Horses North Carolina farms will always have need of hones and moles, says Prof. Earl H. Hostetler, of N. C. State College. "Landowners who breed their best animals will find-a ready sale for the workstock not needed at home," he points out. "Last year, North Carolina paid at least $1,000,000 outside the State for mules which should have been produced more cheaply at home. "This runs up a needless expense and also deprives our farmers of the money they might have gotten from the sale of home-raised work ani mals." The average farm mare can pro duce a colt each year and still do about as much work as the other stock, said Prof. Hostetler, who has charge of livestock research work at the N. C. experiment station. If the mares are bred so that the colts will be dropped in the early spring, a two-week vacation at foal ing time iB enough time off from their regular work. Both mare and colt will he in bet ter health if the mare continues to work, he said. However, the colt should be allowed to nurse in the morning and in the afternoon during the first few weeks. "Take good,care of your work ani mals," he said. "Heat prostrations can be prevented by allowing the stock to drink regularly through the day by keeping plenty of salt in the stalls of pastures. "A good pasture, with plenty of salt, will reduce the feed bill, tone up the animals' health, and provide more comfort on hot nights mid idle days." It always happens when one driv er is in a big car and other in a severie. NOTICE OF LAND BE-SALB By virtue of the power of sale contained in that certain Order made by Honorable J. F.
