IRE WE TO HATE MACADAM ROADS?
The last legislature passed an
act allowing Columbus Town
ship to vote bonds for macadam-
I izing the road f :um Columbus to
Tryon Township line. The News
believes that the good citizen-
SfllD ot this tovvr.fihin wnnf this i
road and that on the day of elec
tion their sentiments will be de
clared to this effect by their tal-
lot ' Jc
It is up to the people to say
whether their county shall re
main in its present inert condi
tion or whether she shall move
on wih the steady increasing
progressive march which other
counties are now making. By
this macadam road to Tryon the
absence of a railroad will be lss
felt. The markets Spartanburg,
Asheville and other points will be !
in closer proximity to the farm
ers a.id produce producers of the
county by having an outlet to
Tryon railroad station.
If we are not to have a rail
road, then this is our only re
course to surmound, as much as
possible, the impediments which
we are now compelled to under
go. It is the duty of every roter
t look this proposition squarely
in the face and to think seriously
of the great advantage which
would naturally flow from its in
stallation. To kill or vote down
this road is to say that the people
are opposed to progess and the
encouragement of home seekers
among us. The News can not
think the people of Columbus
Township are willing to remain
as they now are, when they have
an opportunity to eliminate the
great handiap which they have
been compelled to undergo. We
believe confidently that the ser
ious minded people, of Columbus
Township, will see the adv.nta
es that a macadam road offers
to them and will support the
m vement.

Those who have heard Mr.

him a3 a forcible and able
expounder of the gospel. A
better preacher and more
conscientous man does not
live in Western North Caro

who are in attendance at
the services will be highly
pleased by Mr. Hoyle not on

Making More Money Otit of
Cotton
is merely a question of using enough of the right
kind of fertilizers.
Virg'i ni a - C arolina
Fertilizers
are the right kind.
The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study
your soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the
necessary fertilization and the results will surprise you.
See what Mr. W. C. Hay of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says:
"I planted about 30 acres of some 'gray sandy land' that had been in
cultivation for over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Carolina
Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather SO bales from
the SO acres." This is why we say it is the right kind. We have
hundreds of letters like this, and even stronger, in praise cf Virriaia
Carolina Fertilizer for cotton.
Get a copy of the new 1909 Virginia-Carolina Farmers Year Book
from your fertilizer dealer, or write our nearest sales office and a copy
will be sent you free. It contains pictures of tiie capiiola of all the
Southern States.
