Master, r.

Two years ago the greatest war
in history ended, you all know
how glad we were. Tryon troop
No-1 Boy Scouts of Amerfca cal
led the roll and found there were
' two of our scouts who had given
their lives for us, not being able
to build marble monuments to
their memory, yet wanting to
have some lasting memorial 'to
their sacred memory, we decided
to plant a small tree for each.!;.
This was done, we all remem-
ber the Sunday afternoon out, at
the school house when the scouts
cave the trees . to Tryon and
promised to care for them. wV
The two, trees Art planted died .
and were replaced by two. others
one of which got broken: and
was likewise replaced. They
.0 were growing nicely untill last
Thursday night some dirty low
down less-than-nothing vandal,
cut one of them completely down
and haggled the other one all
over with a knife or other sharp
instrument completely ' ruining
both fine trees. On Saturday the
scouts went to the woods, found
two other nice trees and planted
them. '.'VVe know not who was
mean enough to do such a thing
as this we only wish we did. We
do know we would give a good
sum of money for information
leading to the arrest of the vile
wretch.
We only know this for a cer
tainty. . So long as ther? are any
trees growing in Polk county,
we will continue to replant the
trees until we do get permanant
ones. We love all trees but
more especially these two, help
us look out for their welfare.
They belong to all of us and are

Soon to be located at Lynn,

and will cost over one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. It is
the first cotton mill to come into
this county, and the people of
the county are taking an interest
in it. On account of the election
and other matters, no real effort
has been made to get the p e o -pie
of the county to subscribe for
stock. But now for the next
two weeks- the opportunity is
given. v
W. T. Hammett. J. R. Pentuff
George" H. Holmes and J. R.
Sams have been appointed to
push the campaign ;f or stock.
Just as scon as sufficient
amount of stock is subscribed
contracts will be made for build
ing materiaPand the work will
begin.
What is needed just how is a
number of men in the county to
take one hundred shares each,
and a larger number to take fifty
shares each, and many to - take
ten shares and five shares each.
A share is $100 Avorth,of stock.
About half the full amount
needed has been subscribed and
this fact ought to stir every man
and every woman in the county
to take stock at once and roll up
the full amount. v .
Do not wait to bef seen by a
member of the committee, but
call on Mr. Holmes or Mr. Ham
mett and put your name down

Mr. Pete Wing of Hawk Point,
Mo. , made a lot of money out 'of
hogs. He says: "I feed them
Dr. LeGear s Hog Prescription.
It has given wonderful results m
putting, gains on them with less
feed. They were on heavy feed
for only a month; averaged a
gain of 2 1-2 pounds daily, and
were only 7 months, 10 days old
when sold."
Mr. Wing profited by the ad
vice of Dr. LeGear, Graduate
Veterinarian and Expert Poultry
Breeder of 28 years' standing.
Dr. LeGear's Hog Prescription
will put weight on your hogs
also, because . it expels worms,
puriffies the blood and conditions
them so that they gain ; flesh on
less feed.
