Are There Two Jug i/ Towns In Carolina? f Writer Says Famous Pottery is Be i"g Made in Moore and Mont gomery and Catawba. Hicory Daily Record. Are there two Jugtowns in North Carolina? That is the question that has arisen since Mildred Harrington, writing from New Yorb, told in the Greensboro News how Mr. and Mrs. Jacques Buabce, rormerly of Raleigh, have spent some time in a pottery village to help the natives in their work and then p-epared an article for a magazine descriptive of it. The pottf .said to go well in the nie iro’ Tton indicated the posi *n ns in Montgomery or ...... That let the Catawba county Jugtown out. It is on the Jnap, however, and is being debated. It would appear that if Mr. Husl.ee -had spent any considerable time in -Catawba Jugtowi., he would have vis ited Hickory f Newton, .Shelby or Lin colnton, which are easily accessible. - McDaniel Lewis has the following “in the Greei:sbr,:o News that will be -of interest * 1 have been wondering what the •-.people of Catawba county are think "ing of Mildred Harrington's article .ia_Sunday's paper on Jugtown It was most interesting and I must admit a revelation to me, for I did not known jthst good pottery was made so near „ Greensboro.

It is not possible that there has been some confusion as to which j place meant in the original articles on Jugtown and North Carolina pot tefy ? Of course both places may be J called Jugtown. but which one was written up by Jacques Busbee? Kvi dently both j liters are doing, the greatest beain'vs in their history. But Jugtown is on th map in Cataw ba county and is working overtime mekihg pottery due to the Tact that it had n good press agent several months ago. Catawba Is Winning Honors In Poultry Catawba County, already known throughout the South ns one of the leading dairy centers of the state, is making a bid for first place as a poul try producing center because of the excellent record made in that county by the boys and girls organized into poultry clubs by extension workers of State College and the Department of Agriculture, according to an announ cement mede by Dr. B. W. Kilgore director of the extension work. Dr. Kilgore’s statement was based on the report of County Agent J. W: Hen dricks as to the work done by the poultry club members of the county. “This report shows,” stated Dr. Kilgore, “that the boys and girls mak ing reports had 1,495 chickens in their flocks on January first of this year. This number was increased during 193 to 3,248 birds with a farm value of $4,009.(50. In addition the members sold eggs or hatching to the amount of $835.09 and sold on the local mar ket a total amounting of $2,531.81. Not only did these club members sell a large number of eggs for breeding purposes but they also sold a num ber of their purebred birds. The records show that this one item amounting to $621.75 and that they sold other birds on the local market amounting to $1,797.00.
