The Lake City High school has
a very fine prospect for successful

and air pump and tank, with a
pressure of 200 pounds. l is the
purpose of the school authorities to
make the science course attractive
and thorough. There is a live lyceum
course, of which the superintendent
is local manager, and it is the effort
of the management to encourage the
pupils in attendance and apprecia-
ton of this course. A literary soci-
ETY. has just been formed and good
work is expected. Miss Henderson,
the teacher of music. gave a very
delightful recital during last month,
which was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
In this she was assisted by Miss Ruth
Williams, who delivered several rec
itations very entertainingly. The
grading and classifying of the pu-
pills is now complete and all depart
ments are working smoothly. There
is an effort being made to improve
sanitary conditions and likewise to
institute medical attention in the
school. Floor dressings, dustless

Just received here, the compilation
of DR. Seaman A Knapp, who heads
his article: Great Corn Belt Nov

of the demonstration work.
The nine States reported on are:

They show an increase in production
this year of 1928, 900 bushels of
corn, which is As per cent of the to-
tai increase for the entire country.
In average yield per acre in bush
els, Virginia led the South with 25.5
bushels, this being an increase over
last year of 2.3 bushels. South
Cardinals production, 1875, is an In
crease over her average for 1909 OF
l.S bushels, but neither in, average
yield per acre nor in increased pro-
duction does this State rank this
year among the leading corn-grow-
ing States of the South. In yield
for the current season she is behind
Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama,
Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas. In
this respect Georgia alone made a
lower record, though the average
for Georgia is only l-l0 of a bushel
less than South Cardinals. In the
matter of increased production over
last year, South Carolina is excelled
by Virginia, North Carolina. Ala
bama, Mississippi, Arkansas and
Texas. Arkansas and Mississippi
are the leaders. each having made a
gain per acre of six bushels. The
States which failed to show an in
crease equal to South Cardinals,
which was is bushels, are Georgia,

ADDTeCiatiOn.

/ wish to thank my friends and
customers for their kind assis-
tance in making 1909 the most
successful year since coming to
Hendersonville six years ago; we
have endeavored to treat every
body right, and feel that we
have been fully rewarded for
fair dealings which shall al
ways be our policy. Am glad to
be able to say that there are only
a very few common scrubby liars
in Hendersonville, who, prompted
by a spirit of envy, are given to
knocking those who are trying
to look after their own affairs
exclusively. Envy. you know,
always originates with igno-
rance and superstition get busy
old Knocker, with business of
,y0urIown and you will have less
time to devote Ito other peoples
business.
We are going to make our
business for 1910 the best yet,
which is strictly necessary to
keep pace with this rapidly
growing town.
Give us your business if you
want to be treated right.
