1852, a leading farmer of Arson coun-

The implements Of ~husbandry and
the methods Of farming are changed,
and the advantage in the progress
and change consists largely in the
confidence implanted in the farmer
through and through hat the in
creased production is within his reach
and he has only to catch hold in an
extremity or need and an
amazing yield. Many farmers are tied
to a One-horse impeachment. More than
half the corn grown in our county is
by t~Wo-horse farmers. 1914 IS plows

About twenty-five hundred turkeys
for the Thanksgiving markets were
driven into North Wilkesboro this
week from Ashe and Allegheny coun-
ties and were purchased here by
Messrs. E. e. Eller, A. F. Jones,
Vannoy & Mcneil, and shipped to
Washington and Baltimore. Mr..
E,ller went with one car load to WASH
ington to make the sales at that place.
The demand has been strong within
the past few days on account of the
weather having become cooler making
favorable conditions for shipping.
The fowls are dressed here and pack
ed in barrels with about SO pounds
OF ice to the barrel in warm weather.,
but when the weather is cool no ice
is necessary. The prices paid this
week have ranged from 9 to IL IA
cents on foot. Messrs. Cox Blevins
and J. A. Reeves. of Gale postottice,
drove in a gang of about three hun
dred yesterday. We learn from Mr..
Reeves that the fowls were fattened
mostly upon the mass Of that sec

whelmed with congratulations.

OF chloroform, opium. morphine. and

always claimed that their remedy did no,
contain any of these drugs, and the truth
OF this claim is now fully proven. as no
